description: The interpretation of semiclassical gravity as an ensemble-average of CFTs has provided much progress in understanding the factorization problem and the information paradox. In this article, we consider an averaging over boundary conditions in two-dimensional boundary conformal field theories (BCFTs). We show that the boundary averaging plays an important role not only in producing wormhole contributions but also in resolving the following problem. In general setups in AdS/BCFT, one can find unphysical solutions where branes have (self-)intersections. We show that the averaging nicely resolves this intersection problem. This provides another piece of evidence that averaging plays an important role in reproducing Einstein gravity. We also propose that the averaging provides a BCFT dual of the island model.

description: Background: Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has been used widely to elucidate transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in acute healthcare settings, and to guide infection, prevention,and control (IPC) responses.Aim: To systematically appraise available literature, published between January 1st, 2020 and June 30th, 2022, describing the implementation of WGS in acute healthcare settings to characterize nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 transmission.Methods: Searches of the PubMed, Embase, Ovid MEDLINE, EBSCO MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases identified studies in English reporting the use of WGS to investigate SARS-CoV-2 transmission in acute healthcare environments. Publications involved data collected up to December 31st, 2021, and findings were reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement.FindingsIn all, 3088 non-duplicate records were retrieved; 97 met inclusion criteria, involving 62 outbreak analyses and 35 genomic surveillance studies. No publications from low-income countries were identified. In 87/97 (90%), WGS supported hypotheses for nosocomial transmission, while in 46 out of 97 (47%) suspected transmission events were excluded. An IPC intervention was attributed to the use of WGS in 18 out of 97 (18%); however, only three (3%) studies reported turnaround times ≤7 days facilitating near real-time IPC action, and none reported an impact on the incidence of nosocomial COVID-19 attributable to WGS.ConclusionWGS can elucidate transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in acute healthcare settings to enhance epidemiological investigations. However, evidence was not identified to support sequencing as an intervention to reduce the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 in hospital or to alter the trajectory of active outbreaks.

description: As superconducting quantum processors increase in complexity, techniques to overcome constraints on frequency crowding are needed. The recently developed method of laser-annealing provides an effective post-fabrication method to adjust the frequency of superconducting qubits. Here, we present an automated laser-annealing apparatus based on conventional microscopy components and demonstrate preservation of highly coherent transmons. In one case, we observe a two-fold increase in coherence after laser-annealing and perform noise spectroscopy on this qubit to investigate the change in defect features, in particular two-level system defects. Finally, we present a local heating model as well as demonstrate aging stability for laser-annealing on the wafer scale. Our work constitutes an important first step towards both understanding the underlying physical mechanism and scaling up laser-annealing of superconducting qubits.

Applications of Causality and Causal Inference in Software Engineering

description: Causal inference is a study of causal relationships between events and the statistical study of inferring these relationships through interventions and other statistical techniques. Causal reasoning is any line of work toward determining causal relationships, including causal inference. This paper explores the relationship between causal reasoning and various fields of software engineering. This paper aims to uncover which software engineering fields are currently benefiting from the study of causal inference and causal reasoning, as well as which aspects of various problems are best addressed using this methodology. With this information, this paper also aims to find future subjects and fields that would benefit from this form of reasoning and to provide that information to future researchers. This paper follows a systematic literature review, including; the formulation of a search query, inclusion and exclusion criteria of the search results, clarifying questions answered by the found literature, and synthesizing the results from the literature review. Through close examination of the 45 found papers relevant to the research questions, it was revealed that the majority of causal reasoning as related to software engineering is related to testing through root cause localization. Furthermore, most causal reasoning is done informally through an exploratory process of forming a Causality Graph as opposed to strict statistical analysis or introduction of interventions. Finally, causal reasoning is also used as a justification for many tools intended to make the software more human-readable by providing additional causal information to logging processes or modeling languages.
title: Re-examination of Newfoundland Mi’kmaq phonetics
Creators: name: Steeves, Sydney
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2022

description: The phonology of Newfoundland Mi’kmaq was first examined in detail by Russell Bragg in 1976. Since that time, with the advancement of computer programs such as Phon and Praat, one can examine the phonetics more accurately. The goal of this thesis is to re-examine the phonetics of Newfoundland Mi’kmaq and expand upon the original observations made over 45 years ago. Ten audio hours of the same data that was first collected in the early 1970s was re-transcribed using Phon. The waveforms and spectrograms of the data were then examined in Praat in order to more accurately transcribe the data. This thesis specifically focuses on the consonants and is able to solidify some of the original observations made in 1976, expand the phonological inventory, and discover allophonic variations that were not originally noticed. Additionally, this thesis examines various voicing characteristics, consonant length, and confirms the existence of a glottal catch that the original study discussed.

description: We investigate the feasibility of UV lasing without inversion at a wavelength of $253.7$ nm utilizing interacting dark resonances in mercury vapor. Our theoretical analysis starts with radiation damped optical Bloch equations for all relevant 13 atomic levels. These master equations are generalized by considering technical phase noise of the driving lasers. From the Doppler broadened complex susceptibility we obtain the stationary output power from semiclassical laser theory. The finite overlap of the driving Gaussian laser beams defines an ellipsoidal inhomogeneous gain distribution. Therefore, we evaluate the intra-cavity field inside a ring laser self-consistently with Fourier optics. This analysis confirms the feasibility of UV lasing and reveals its dependence on experimental parameters.

description: Continuous integration (CI) has become a ubiquitous practice in modern software development, with major code hosting services offering free automation on popular platforms. CI offers major benefits, as it enables detecting bugs in code prior to committing changes. While high-performance computing (HPC) research relies heavily on software, HPC machines are not considered "common" platforms. This presents several challenges that hinder the adoption of CI in HPC environments, making it difficult to maintain bug-free HPC projects, and resulting in adverse effects on the research community. In this article, we explore the challenges that impede HPC CI, such as hardware diversity, security, isolation, administrative policies, and non-standard authentication, environments, and job submission mechanisms. We propose several solutions that could enhance the quality of HPC software and the experience of developers. Implementing these solutions would require significant changes at HPC centers, but if these changes are made, it would ultimately enable faster and better science.

description: A theoretical investigation of weak-anchoring effects in a thin two-dimensional pinned static ridge of nematic liquid crystal resting on a flat solid substrate in an atmosphere of passive gas is performed. Specifically, we solve a reduced version of the general system of governing equations recently derived by Cousins et al. [Proc. Roy. Soc. A}, 478(2259):20210849, 2022] valid for a symmetric thin ridge under the one-constant approximation of the Frank--Oseen bulk elastic energy with pinned contact lines to determine the shape of the ridge and the behaviour of the director within it. Numerical investigations covering a wide range of parameter values indicate that the energetically-preferred solutions can be classified in terms of the Jenkins--Barratt--Barbero--Barberi critical thickness into five qualitatively different types of solution. In particular, the theoretical results suggest that anchoring breaking occurs close to the contact lines. The theoretical predictions are supported by the results of physical experiments for a ridge of the nematic 4'-pentyl-4-biphenylcarbonitrile (5CB). In particular, these experiments show that the homeotropic anchoring at the gas--nematic interface is broken close to the contact lines by the stronger rubbed planar anchoring at the nematic--substrate interface. A comparison between the experimental values of and the theoretical predictions for the effective refractive index of the ridge gives a first estimate of the anchoring strength of an interface between air and 5CB to be $(9.80\pm1.12)\times10^{-6}\,{\rm N m}^{-1}$ at a temperature of $(22\pm1.5)^\circ$C.
Hall anomaly by vacancies in pinned lattice of vortices: A quantitative analysis on the thin-film data of BSCCO

description: Hall anomaly, as appears in the mixed-state Hall resistivity of type-II superconductors, has had numerous theories but yet a consensus on its origin. In this work, we conducted a quantitative analysis of the magnetotransport measurements on BSCCO thin films by Zhao et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 122, 247001 (2019)] and validate a previously proposed vacancy mechanism [cf. J. Phys. Condens. Matter. 10, L677 (1998)] with many-body vortex correlations for the phenomenon. The model attributes the Hall anomaly to the motion of vacancies in pinned fragments of vortex lattice. Its validity is first examined by an exploration on the vortex states near the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition on the vortex crystal. Comparisons are then carried out between the measured activation energies with the calculated creation energy of the vortex-anti-vortex pair and the vacancy energy on the flux-line lattice, with no adjustable parameter. Our analysis elucidates the theoretical basis and prerequisites of the vacancy model. In particular, the vacancy activation energies are an order of magnitude smaller than that of a sole vortex line. The proposed mechanism may provide a macro-theoretical framework for other studies.
Quantization of integrable and chaotic three-particle Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou models

description: We study the transition from integrability to chaos for the three-particle Fermi-Pasta-Ulam- Tsingou (FPUT) model. We can show that both the quartic b-FPUT model ($α$ = 0) and the cubic one ($β$ = 0) are integrable by introducing an appropriate Fourier representation to express the nonlinear terms of the Hamiltonian. For generic values of $α$ and $β$, the model is non-integrable and displays a mixed phase space with both chaotic and regular trajectories. In the classical case, chaos is diagnosed by the investigation of Poincaré sections. In the quantum case, the level spacing statistics in the energy basis belongs to the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble in the chaotic regime, and crosses over to Poissonian behavior in the quasi-integrable low-energy limit. In the chaotic part of the spectrum, two generic observables obey the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis.

Effective QCD string beyond Nambu-Goto

description: We consider the QCD string as an effective string, whose action describes long-range stringy fluctuations. The leading infrared contribution to the ground state energy is given by the Alvarez-Arvis formula, usually derived using the Nambu-Goto action. Here we rederive it by a saddle point calculation using the Polyakov formulation of the free string, where the world sheet metric and the target space coordinates are treated as independent variables. The next order relevant in the infrared term in the effective action is the extrinsic curvature term. We show that the spectrum does not change order by order in the inverse string length, but may change at intermediate distances.

description: We combine results from deep ALMA observations of massive ($M_*>10^{10}\;M_{\odot}$) galaxies at different redshifts to show that the column density of their inter stellar medium (ISM) rapidly increases towards early cosmic epochs. Our analysis includes objects from the ASPECS and ALPINE large programs, as well as individual observations of $z\sim 6$ QSO hosts. When accounting for non-detections and correcting for selection effects, we find that the median surface density of the ISM of the massive galaxy population evolves as $\sim(1+z)^{3.3}$. This means that the ISM column density towards the nucleus of a $z>3$ galaxy is typically $>100$ times larger than locally, and it may reach values as high as Compton-thick at $z\gtrsim6$. Remarkably, the median ISM column density is of the same order of what is measured from X-ray observations of large AGN samples already at $z\gtrsim2$. We develop a simple analytic model for the spatial distribution of ISM clouds within galaxies, and estimate the total covering factor towards active nuclei when obscuration by ISM clouds on the host scale is added to that of pc-scale circumnuclear material (the so-called 'torus'). The model includes clouds with a distribution of sizes, masses, and surface densities, and also allows for an evolution of the characteristic cloud surface density with redshift, $Σ_{c,*}\propto(1+z)^γ$. We show that, for $γ=2$, such a model successfully reproduces the increase of the obscured AGN fraction with redshift that is commonly observed in deep X-ray surveys, both when different absorption thresholds and AGN luminosities are considered. Our results suggest that 80-90\% of supermassive black holes in the early Universe ($z>6-8$) are hidden to our view, primarily by the ISM in their hosts. [abridged]

description: In this paper, we study the feasibility of applying the recently proposed cuckoo filters to improve space efficiency for set membership testing in Network Security Monitoring, focusing on the example of Threat Intelligence matching. We present conceptual insights for the practical application of cuckoo filters and provide a cuckoo filter implementation that allows runtime configuration. To evaluate the practical applicability of cuckoo filters, we integrate our implementation into the Bro Network Security Monitor, compare it to traditional data structures and conduct a brief operational evaluation. We find that cuckoo filters allow remarkable memory savings, while potential performance trade-offs, caused by introducing false positives, have to be carefully evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

description: Research on despotic leadership and its impacts on the behavior of front-line employees (FLE) in service organizations is nascent. Drawing on the social cognitive theory of morality, we develop and test a model in two service settings investigating the direct and indirect effects of despotic leadership on three FLE deviant work behaviors. In Study 1, using a multi-wave, multi-data source research design with data derived from banks, telecommunications, and training/education service organizations in Pakistan, we demonstrate the ecological validity of our constructs. In Study 2, using a multi-wave, multi-source longitudinal research design, we investigated these relationships in hotels located in Pakistan and confirmed the results found in Study 1 and also investigated the sustainability of deviant work outcomes. Cumulatively, we found support for the direct effects of despotic leadership on FLE deviant work behaviors. Moral disengagement acted as a partial mediator of these relationships and moral identity moderated the mediated relationship between despotic leadership and FLE deviant work behaviors via moral disengagement. Our findings provide a nuanced understanding of despotic leadership and FLE deviant work behaviors in service settings. We contribute to the front-line services literature stream by focusing on the supervisor and FLE interaction and highlighting research and practice implications

description: We developed a new general-relativistic quantum-kinetics neutrino transport code, GRQKNT, for numerical studies of quantum kinetics of non-equilibrium neutrinos in six-dimensional phase space. This code is intended for use in both local and global simulations of neutrino transport in core-collapse supernova and binary neutron star merger. It has been widely recognized that global simulations of collective neutrino oscillations, in particular fast neutrino-flavor conversions (FFC), require unfeasible computational resources due to large disparity of scales between flavor conversion and astrophysical phenomena. We propose a novel approach to tackle the issue. This paper is devoted to describe the philosophy, design, and numerical implementation of GRQKNT with a number of tests ensuring correct implementation of each module. The code is based on a discrete-ordinate Sn method, finite-difference realization of mean-field quantum kinetic equation. The transport equation is solved based on a conservative formalism, and we use a fifth-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory scheme with fourth-order TVD Runge-Kutta time-integration. The transport module is designed to work with arbitrary spacetimes and currently three different stationary spacetimes (flat spacetime, Schwarzschild black hole, and Kerr black hole) are implemented. The collision term including neutrino emission, absorption, and momentum-exchanged scatterings are also implemented into our code. The oscillation Hamiltonian consists of vacuum, matter, and self-interactions. Both two- and three neutrino-flavor scenarios can be applied. Fluid-velocity dependences in transport-, collision-, and oscillation modules, are also treated self-consistently by using two-energy-grid technique, that has been already established in our another code with full Boltzmann neutrino transport.

title: The Molecular Epidemiology of Tuberculosis and the Impact of HIV
Infection and Antiretroviral Therapy
Creators: name: Houben, RM
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 2010

description: This thesis investigates the epidemiology of tuberculosis (TB) disease in populations. It applies molecular epidemiological methods to elucidate the relative effects of HIV on TB disease following recent first infection, reactivation and recent reinfection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Finally it aims to explore the impact of Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) on the incidence of TB in a population in rural Sub Saharan Africa. The data in chapters 2 and 3 is taken from a systematic literature review I performed of population based studies that reported TB molecular epidemiological data. In the subsequent chapters I analyse existing and newly collected data from the Karonga Prevention Study, set in Northern Malawi, to address the research questions. The results strongly suggest that HIV-infection increases an individual’s risk of TB disease due to recent Mtb (re)infection more than through reactivation in populations with generalised HIV epidemics. The last chapter suggests that patients on ART experience a high risk of TB compared to HIV positive/ART naive patients, especially in the first months after initiating ART. Also, it appears that after the introduction of ART in 2005 TB incidence in Karonga District plateaued after declining in the previous 10 years. These findings strongly suggest that TB programmes in areas with generalised HIV epidemics should focus more of their efforts on reducing Mtb transmission. Improved collaboration between TB and ART programmes may help to reduce TB rates in the highly vulnerable ART receiving population and subsequently in the general population.

description: The neutrinoless double-beta ($0νββ$) decay is a unique process to identify the Majorana nature of massive neutrinos, and its rate depends on the size of the effective Majorana neutrino mass $\langle m\rangle_{ee}$. We put forward a novel "coupling-rod" diagram to describe $\langle m\rangle_{ee}$ in the complex plane, by which the effects of the neutrino mass ordering and CP-violating phases on $\langle m\rangle_{ee}$ are intuitively understood. We show that this geometric language allows us to easily obtain the maximum and minimum of $|\langle m\rangle_{ee}|$. It remains usable even if there is a kind of new physics contributing to $\langle m\rangle_{ee}$, and it can also be extended to describe the effective Majorana masses $\langle m\rangle_{eμ}$, $\langle m\rangle_{eτ}$, $\langle m\rangle_{μμ}$, $\langle m\rangle_{μτ}$ and $\langle m\rangle_{ττ}$ which may appear in some other lepton-number-violating processes.

description: We discuss a reformulation of QED in which matter and gauge fields are integrated out explicitly, resulting in a many-body Lorentz covariant theory of 0+1 dimensional worldlines describing super-pairs of spinning charges interacting through Lorentz forces. This provides a powerful, string inspired definition of amplitudes to all loop orders. In particular, one obtains a more general formulation of Wilson loops and lines, with exponentiated dynamical fields and spin precession contributions, and worldline contour averages exactly defined through first quantized path integrals. We discuss in detail the attractive features of this formalism for high order perturbative computations. We show that worldline S-matrix elements, to all loop orders in perturbation theory, can be constructed to be manifestly free of soft singularities, with infrared (IR) divergences captured and removed by endpoint photon exchanges at infinity that are equivalent to the soft coherent dressings of the Dyson S-matrix proposed by Faddeev and Kulish. We discuss these IR structures and make connections with soft theorems, the Abelian exponentiation of IR divergences and cusp anomalous dimensions. Follow-up papers will discuss the efficient computation of cusp anomalous dimensions and universal features of soft theorems.

title: Using whole genome sequence data to study genomic diversity and develop molecular barcodes to profile Plasmodium malaria parasites

description: Malaria is a major threat to human health, causing over 300 million clinical cases and approximately ~500,000 deaths per year. Countries attempting malaria elimination are increasingly concerned with identifying pockets of transmission and outbreaks arising from imported cases, and there is a need to establish molecular barcodes for implementation in the field. The genetic diversity and non-recombining properties of mitochondrial and apicoplast sequence can be powerfully exploited for geographic genetic profiling of P. falciparum malaria at an inter-continent level. However, this approach provides limited insights for assessing drug resistance, intra-regional geographical differentiation, and ignores malaria caused by other Plasmodium spp. (P. vivax and P. knowlesi). To overcome these limitations, this project proposes to study the genomic diversity found in the nuclear and organellar genomes of the Plasmodium species causing human malaria and establish robust ways to create SNP barcodes. In this study, an assessment of the current libraries of genomic sequence data across the species P. falciparum, P. vivax and P. knowlesi was performed and using a range of bioinformatics approaches the genetic diversity in the different populations was assessed. For this, a new high-quality reference for the A1-H.1 P. knowlesi strain was generated and its methylome was characterized. Using this reference, the first evidence of genetic exchange events between the three subpopulations of P. knowlesi was found in Malaysia. Furthermore, a study of the structural and genetic diversity found in the hypervariable vaccine candidate var2csa gene in P. falciparum and its potential geographical signal associated with Malaria in Pregnancy (MiP) were performed. Finally, we accomplished a genetic diversity study of global P. vivax isolates and the insights obtained from this analysis allowed the development of a 71 SNP barcode to predict the geographical origin of P. vivax isolates. The obtained barcode were tested using prospectively and retrospectively collected datasets, particularly from endemic settings with complex mixed infections and near-elimination settings. The identification of SNP barcodes using this methodology can inform future rapid diagnostics and promote the application of field-based sequencing.

The role of electromagnetic gauge-field fluctuations in the selection between chiral and nematic superconductivity

description: Motivated by the observation of nematic superconductivity in several systems, we revisit the problem of the leading pairing instability of two-component unconventional superconductors on the triangular lattice -- such as $(p_{x},\,p_{y})$-wave and $(d_{x^{2}-y^{2}},\,d_{xy})$-wave. Such a system has two possible superconducting states: the chiral state (e.g. $p+ip$ or $d+id$), which breaks time-reversal symmetry, and the nematic state (e.g. $p+p$ or $d+d$), which breaks the threefold rotational symmetry of the lattice. Weak-coupling calculations generally favor the chiral over the nematic superconducting state, raising the question of what mechanism can stabilize the latter. Here, we show that the electromagnetic field fluctuations can play a crucial role in selecting between these two states. Specifically, we derive and analyze the effective free energy for the two-component superconducting order parameter after integrating out the gauge-field fluctuations, which is formally justified if the spatial order parameter fluctuations can be neglected. A non-analytic cubic term arises, as in the case of a conventional $s$-wave superconductor. However, unlike the latter, the cubic term depends on the relative phase and on the relative amplitudes between the two order parameter components, in such a way that it generally favors the nematic state. This result is a direct consequence of the fact that the stiffness of the superconducting order parameter is not isotropic. Competition with the quartic term, which favors the chiral state, leads to a renormalized phase diagram in which the nematic state displaces the chiral state over a wide region in the parameter space. We analyze the stability of the fluctuation-induced nematic phase, generalize our results to tetragonal lattices, and discuss their applicability to candidate nematic superconductors, including twisted bilayer graphene.

description: We study the intrinsic shape and alignment of isodensities of galaxy cluster halos extracted from the MultiDark MDR1 cosmological simulation. We find that the simulated halos, are extremely prolate on small scales, and increasingly spherical on larger ones. Due to this trend, analytical projection along the line of sight produces an overestimate of the concentration index as a decreasing function of radius, which we quantify by using both the intrinsic distribution of 3D concentrations ($c_{200}$) and isodensity shape on weak and strong lensing scales. We find this difference to be $\sim 18\%$ ($\sim 9\%$) for low (medium) mass cluster halos with intrinsically low concentrations ($c_{200}=1-3$), while we find virtually no difference for halos with intrinsically high concentrations. Isodensities are found to be fairly well-aligned throughout the entirety of the radial scale of each halo population. However, major axes of individual halos have been found to deviate by as much as $\sim 30^{\circ}$. We also present a value-added catalog of our analysis results, which we have made publicly available to download.

description: A new class of conformal invariants for a given spacetime $M$ is introduced exploiting the conformal geometry of any light ray $Γ$. Each congruence of light rays passing through a given point $p$ defines the sky $S(p)$ of such point. The new conformal invariants are defined on the bundle of skies of the spacetime $M$, being called sky invariants accordingly. The natural conformal covariant derivative defined on a light ray and its associated covariant calculus allows us show the existence of a natural conformal invariant differential of arc that, together with the restriction of the curvature of the conformal covariant derivative, can be used to construct a sky invariant that will be called the sky curvature. An algorithm, that can be implemented on any symbolic manipulation software system, to compute the sky curvature will be discussed and the main ideas and the explicit computation of the sky curvature are illustrated in Schwarzschild spacetime.
