description: The emergence of spatiotemporal heterogeneity during anomalous diffusive motion of two distinct biological systems is studied with the aid of single particle tracking (SPT) and statistical motion analysis on different length scales ranging from nanometers to a few 100 micrometers. In the first part of this thesis, the subdiffusion of quantum dots nanoparticles loaded into the cytoplasm of living mammalian cells was observed under varying conditions. In particular, the particles’ motion was quantified in untreated cells and cells where the integrity of ubiquitous organelles, like the cytoskeleton or the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), was perturbed. For analysis, established estimators, like the mean squared displacement, resulting anomaly exponents and generalized transport coefficients, the velocity autocorrelation function, and newly proposed estimators were used. The latter include the statistics of normalized increments, the local convex hull and the autocorrelation function of fluctuations in squared increments. It was found that all experimental conditions show strong, microtubule-dependent subdiffusion with antipersistent increments and a substantial heterogeneity, albeit to a varying degree. These heterogeneities were hypothesized to come from transient interactions of tracers with the cytoskeleton-shaken endoplasmic reticulum network. An intermittent fractional Brownian motion model with stochastic switching between different mobility states was derived, that was found to be in excellent agreement with the experimental data without the need of diffusing diffusivities, thus providing strong evidence for the validity of the hypothesis. In the second part, perturbations of the posttranslational protein regulation of tubulin, presumably regarding the structure of the cytoskeletal cortex, and their influence on the active, self-propelled motion of individual kinetoplastids of the genus Tryponosoma Brucei was studied. To this end, two distinct mutant subpopulations were generated using small interfering RNA methods and their respective motion behavior was quantified with SPT methods and a motility assay. Non-induced individuals of either condition did not show significant deviations from the parental strain. However, upon depletion of certain proteins, significant changes in the motion were observed, which were traced back to possible variations in cell stiffness and/or presumably structural abnormalities.

description: Die Gestaltung von Abbildungen in einem lernorientierten Kontext ist unter anderem durch die Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning empirisch gut abgesichert. Viele Prinzipien geben Anhaltspunkte für die Gestaltung effizienter Abbildungen. In Bezug auf handlungsorientierte Dokumente, wie Tutorials, bietet sich jedoch noch eine breite Forschungslücke. Während sich Screenshots und visuelle Signalisierungstechniken bereits unter gewissen Randbedingungen als effizient bewiesen haben, stellen Simplified User Interfaces (SUIs) eine noch nahezu unerforschte Designtechnik für Screenshots dar. Ziel dieser Studie ist es, den Effekt reduzierter Detailinformationen in SUIs zu untersuchen und Hinweise dafür zu liefern, wie effizient SUIs im Vergleich zu herkömmlich verwendeten Abbildungsarten sind. Hierfür wurde ein Eyetracking-Experiment durchgeführt, bei dem Proband*innen (n=24) ein Software-Tutorial für ein Bildbearbeitungsprogramm bearbeiten. Das Tutorial liegt in drei Varianten vor, die sich lediglich hinsichtlich ihrer enthaltenen Abbildungsart unterscheiden: SUIs, signalisierte sowie unbearbeitete Screenshots. Die Ergebnisse liefern Hinweise darauf, dass SUIs sich tendenziell effizient für die Identifizierung relevanter Bereiche in einer Abbildung zeigen. Bei der Bearbeitung des Tutorials zeigen jedoch signalisierte Screenshots einen positiveren Effekt. Die Proband*innen konnten die Handlungsanweisungen mit signalisierten Screenshots effizienter ausführen als mit SUIs oder unbearbeiteten Screenshots. Die Genauigkeit der Ausführung der Handlungsanweisungen unterscheidet sich nicht hinsichtlich der Screenshot-Varianten. Weitere Datenerhebungen sind geplant, um die Ergebnisse anhand einer größeren Stichprobe zu verifizieren und die Auswirkungen komplexer Aufgabenstellungen zu untersuchen.

description: Spectroscopic analytical techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman or hyperspectral imaging are important in modern geosciences. In recent years there has been a shift from using exclusively single-spot analyses to 2-dimensional maps. Maps help to reveal patterns in a sample that would not be detected by single point measurements. Filtering and extracting signal information from multiple combined pixels can help improve the signal-to-noise ratio and thus the precision of the data. The combination of multilayer numerical datasets obtained from different instruments or measurement settings opens up the possibility of exploring and investigating individual datasets in much greater detail. However, the amount of data and information in the dataset increases significantly when high-resolution spectroscopic and spatial data is used instead of spot analyses, thus making the data examination and data validation more challenging and time consuming. To investigate large datasets, we have developed SpecXY, a software solution for preparing, editing, extracting, and comparing spatially resolved spectral datasets. SpecXY aims to provide a user-friendly and opensource software solution for working with spectroscopic data by providing a simple user interface that is accessible to all users with basic computer skills. Advanced users with a basic understanding of MATLAB® programming can adapt, customise and extend SpecXY due to its modular and function-based program structure. SpecXY also provides innovative algorithms for analyzing spectral data, such as Monte Carlo deconvolution of peaks, and hybrid classification and filtering based on spectra in combination with user knowledge. Two examples illustrate possible applications of SpecXY: (1) multidimensional classification and correlation of spatially resolved spectroscopic data and quantified chemical element maps, and (2) classification, filtering, quantification of H2O in minerals and profile extraction of a high-resolution spectroscopic data set measured by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy coupled to a Focal Plane Array (FPA) detector.

description: The study was conducted in Keranigonj upazilla under Dhaka district from the month of April to May in 2014 to determine the cost and return of some important vegetables namely bottle gourd, brinjal and cucumber. Data were collected from 20 bottle gourd farmers, 30 brinjal farmers and 20 cucumber farmers by using purposive sampling method. The averages total cost per hectare were calculated at Tk. 4,12,713, Tk. 2,69,627 and Tk.2,56,258 for bottle gourd, brinjal and cucumber production.Net return per hectare was the highest for brinjal (Tk. 7,32,811) and the lowest for bottle gourd (Tk. 5,79,431).The benefit cost ratios (BCR) considering variable cost were 2.83, 4.88 and 4.57 for bottle gourd, brinjal and cucumber respectively. The highest BCR was for brinjal (3.72) and the lowest for bottle gourd (2.40) on the basis of total cost. Lack of capital, low price of vegetables, high price of input, price fluctuation, disease, unavailability of input and lack of storage facilities were the major problems of farmers.

Absence of higher derivatives in the renormalization of propagators in quantum field theories with infinitely many couplings

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: I study some aspects of the renormalization of quantum field theories with infinitely many couplings in arbitrary space-time dimensions. I prove that when the space-time manifold admits a metric of constant curvature the propagator is not affected by terms with higher derivatives. More generally, certain lagrangian terms are not turned on by renormalization, if they are absent at the tree level. This restricts the form of the action of a non-renormalizable theory, and has applications to quantum gravity. The new action contains infinitely many couplings, but not all of the ones that might have been expected. In quantum gravity, the metric of constant curvature is an extremal, but not a minimum, of the complete action. Nonetheless, it appears to be the right perturbative vacuum, at least when the curvature is negative, suggesting that the quantum vacuum has a negative asymptotically constant curvature. The results of this paper give also a set of rules for a more economical use of effective quantum field theories and suggest that it might be possible to give mathematical sense to theories with infinitely many couplings at high energies, to search for physical predictions.

description: The present study was designed to analyze the cost, benefit and profitability of cassava production in selected areas of Sherpur district in Bangladesh. Data were collected by interviewing a representative sample of 100 practicing cassava farmers, taking each 50 sample from traditional farmers of Jhinaigati and commercial cassava farmers of Sreebardi Upazila. Analyses showed that per hectare cost incurred for cassava was BDT 41,417.22 in Jhinaigati whereas BDT 53,642.59 in Sreebardi Upazila. The average return for cassava was BDT 103,297.58 and BDT 159,527.70 in Jhinaigati and Sreebardi Upazila respectively. Average gross margin for cassava was BDT 61,880.36 and BDT 105,885.10 in Jhinaigati and Sreebardi Upazila respectively. Results of the financial analysis indicate that investment in cassava is profitable since BCR was for cassava were 2.49 and 2.99 in Jhinaigati and Sreebardi Upazila respectively. The technical efficiency analysis reveals that technical inefficiency effects presence in cassava production in the study areas. The estimates for the stochastic frontier cost functions parameters imply that as some cost factors, e.g., cost of labor, power tiller, seedlings, fertilizer, and interest on operating capital increased, total production cost increased. Hence, these variables are important determinants of cassava production in the study area. In a nutshell, though the technical inefficiency exists in the cassava production, it is profitable and, therefore, be replicated in other areas of Bangladesh.
Spin Ice State in Frustrated Magnetic Pyrochlore Materials

description: A frustrated system is one whose symmetry precludes the possibility that every pairwise interaction (``bond'') in the system can be satisfied at the same time. Such systems are common in all areas of physical and biological science. In the most extreme cases they can have a disordered ground state with ``macroscopic'' degeneracy, that is, one that comprises a huge number of equivalent states of the same energy. Pauling's description of the low temperature proton disorder in water ice was perhaps the first recognition of this phenomenon, and remains the paradigm. In recent years a new class of magnetic substance has been characterised, in which the disorder of the magnetic moments at low temperatures is precisely analogous to the proton disorder in water ice. These substances, known as spin ice materials, are perhaps the ``cleanest'' examples of such highly frustrated systems yet discovered. They offer an unparalleled opportunity for the study of frustration in magnetic systems at both an experimental and a theoretical level. This article describes the essential physics of spin ice, as it is currently understood, and identifies new avenues for future research on related materials and models.

description: This study examined the profitability of beef cattle fattening in the northern char area of Bangladesh. A total of 150 cattle fatteners were randomly selected from two districts representing the highest concentration of fatteners in the char area. Socioeconomic data as well as data on beef fattening were collected from the people selected at Pabna and Sirajgonj district. Descriptive statistics was used to analysis the socioeconomics characteristics of beef producers, the profit function was used to determine the profitability of beef market and regression analysis was used to determine the factor affecting profitability of beef cattle. In spite of beef cattle production was profitable agribusiness most of the farmers adopt traditional beef fattening system for beef fattening target the cattle marketing during the Muslim festival “Eid-ul-Azha”. Profitability margin equals BDT 13,350.84 per cattle. The benefit cost ratio of the entire enterprise was 0.52 that means cattle fattening enterprise is profitable and feasible business enterprise. The major problems facing the farmers include high cost of feeds, inadequate credit facilities, disease attack, illegal use of human drugs for cattle fattening, price fluctuation and inadequate extension services. A policy and research emphasis should be geared toward feeds production at affordable price to the fatteners and fatteners should be educated on how to formulate local feeds to reduce cost and access to feeds for better efficiency and discourage to use human drugs, tablets and injection for cattle fattening. These findings can be used by the Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries Development extension agents to promote beef cattle fattening in areas where beef cattle fattening is not practiced in the country.

description: This article presents a general framework for recovering missing dynamical systems using available data and machine learning techniques. The proposed framework reformulates the prediction problem as a supervised learning problem to approximate a map that takes the memories of the resolved and identifiable unresolved variables to the missing components in the resolved dynamics. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework with a theoretical guarantee of a path-wise convergence of the resolved variables up to finite time and numerical tests on prototypical models in various scientific domains. These include the 57-mode barotropic stress models with multiscale interactions that mimic the blocked and unblocked patterns observed in the atmosphere, the nonlinear Schrödinger equation which found many applications in physics such as optics and Bose-Einstein-Condense, the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation which spatiotemporal chaotic pattern formation models trapped ion mode in plasma and phase dynamics in reaction-diffusion systems. While many machine learning techniques can be used to validate the proposed framework, we found that recurrent neural networks outperform kernel regression methods in terms of recovering the trajectory of the resolved components and the equilibrium one-point and two-point statistics. This superb performance suggests that recurrent neural networks are an effective tool for recovering the missing dynamics that involves approximation of high-dimensional functions.

The relation between the geometrical approach and the approach using the AdS/CFT correspondence is also clarified. In particular, we find generalized dark radiation as homogeneous solutions in our iteration scheme. Moreover, the precise correspondence between the bulk geometry and the brane effective action is established, which gives a holographic view of the brane world.

description: The study reports on the effect of composite flours consisting of wheat and sweet potato flour on the physicochemical and sensory properties of instant noodles. Sweet potato flour was incorporated into wheat flour at flour replacement levels of 0, 10, 20 and 30%. The levels of sweet potato flours increased in the formulations of instant noodle that increased ash, starch, crude fiber and total carbohydrate contents but decreased level of protein. The instant noodles with 20% sweet potato flour had decreased moisture content but had higher levels of fat and calories (per 100 g) when compared with 10% sweet potato flour in the formulation. The instant noodles with 0, 10, 20 and 30% of sweet potato flours that higher level of water absorption and increased volume of cooked noodles. Instant noodles with 30% sweet potato flour that the highest sensory scores for colour, flavour, texture and overall acceptability when compared with control and other samples but noodles with 20% sweet potato flour was equally acceptable. Studies on the shelf life of dried instant noodles packed in polyethylene bags showed no remarkable change in mold growth, texture and flavor but free fatty acid value, peroxide value and moisture content slightly increased gradually after 90 days duration at room temperature

description: Representing maritime traffic patterns and detecting anomalies from them are key to vessel monitoring and maritime situational awareness. We propose a novel approach -- referred to as GeoTrackNet -- for maritime anomaly detection from AIS data streams. Our model exploits state-of-the-art neural network schemes to learn a probabilistic representation of AIS tracks and a contrario detection to detect abnormal events. The neural network provides a new means to capture complex and heterogeneous patterns in vessels' behaviours, while the \textit{a contrario} detector takes into account the fact that the learnt distribution may be location-dependent. Experiments on a real AIS dataset comprising more than 4.2 million AIS messages demonstrate the relevance of the proposed method compared with state-of-the-art schemes.

description: Die Arbeit untersucht den Zusammenhang zwischen einem unerfüllten Kinderwunsch, der reproduktionsmedizinischen Behandlung und wie das Erleben der Sexualität der Frauen davon beeinflusst wird. Ziel dabei ist es, ein besseres Verständnis für die sexuellen Bedürfnisse, das sexuelle Erleben von Frauen, die sich für eine Kinderwunschbehandlung entschieden haben, zu bekommen. Daraus können sexual-beraterische Methoden entwickelt werden, die von großer Bedeutung für die Betroffenen sind. Im Fokus stehen heterosexuelle Frauen mit aus biologischen Gründen unerfülltem Kinderwunsch. Dazu wurden fünf Frauen zwischen 33 und 40 Jahren in qualitativen Interviews befragt. Bei allen Frauen zeigte sich, dass Sexualität fast ausschließlich zur Erfüllung des Kinderwunsches diente, die lustvoll erlebte Sexualität dagegen an Spontanität, Begehren, Verlangen verlor. Die Ergebnisse lassen einen nicht zu unterschätzenden Einfluss des unerfüllten Kinderwunsches und der reproduktionsmedizinischen Behandlung auf Körper und Geist vermuten. Jedoch konnten auch positive Coping-Stile beobachtet werden, die konkrete Hinweise für die Beratung von betroffenen Menschen ermöglichen sowie Folgerungen für Politik und Gesellschaft aufzeigen.

description: We study the possibility of extending ghost systems with higher spin to a logarithmic conformal field theory. In particular we are interested in c=-26 which turns out to behave very differently to the already known c=-2 case. The energy momentum tensor cannot be built anymore by a combination of derivatives of generalized symplectic fermion fields. Moreover, the logarithmically extended theory is only consistent when considered on nontrivial Riemann surfaces. This results in a LCFT with some unexpected properties. For instance the Virasoro mode L_0 is diagonal and for certain values of the deformation parameters even the whole global conformal group is non-logarithmic.

description: In the case study of Indonesia we investigated possible effects of different types of market-based instruments (MBI), including rewards and taxes, on larger farmer (landlord) that adopts MBI and spillovers on working on his land under sharecropping arrangement another farmer (tenant). Multi-period expected value model with Monte Carlo simulation and Brownian motion was used. Findings showed that high prices of MBI would increase incomes of landlord but would reduce incomes of tenant through reduced working activities at landlord due to less cultivation of labor demanding crops. In most cases the incomes of landlord would be the under the MBI scenarios than in the business-as-usual scenario. If uncertainty in revenues is considered then MBI would reduce variability in incomes of both landlord and tenant. Rewards for increasing supply rather than taxation for reducing provision of ecosystem services resulted in higher rural incomes and provision of ecosystem services.

description: We use a modified SU(2) chiral sigma model to study nuclear matter at high density using mean field approach. We also study the phase transition of nuclear matter to quark matter in the interior of highly dense neutron stars. Stable solutions of Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations representing hybrid stars are obtained with a maximum mass of 1.69 $M_{\odot}$, radii around 9.3 kms and a quark matter core constituting nearly 55-85 % of the star radii.

description: Additional file 7: Details of PpiHpo expression in the tentacular apparatus. The pictures show that although PpiHpo is turned off in the differentiation zone of the colloblasts in the lateral cellular conveyor belts of the tentacle root (cf. FigureÂ 3h), it is later re-expressed at a strong level in the epithelium of the tentacle axis and tentillae, starting from a point at a short distance from tentacle basis.

description: Silicon spin qubits show great promise as a scalable qubit platform for fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, fast high-fidelity readout of charge and spin states, which is required for quantum error correction, has remained elusive. Radio-frequency reflectometry enables rapid high-fidelity readout of GaAs spin qubits, but the relatively large resistances and capacitances of accumulation-mode Si quantum dot devices have made radio-frequency reflectometry challenging in these platforms. In this work, we implement radio-frequency reflectometry in a Si/SiGe quantum dot device with overlapping gates by making minor device-level changes that eliminate these challenges. We demonstrate charge state readout with a fidelity above 99.9% in an integration time of 300 ns. We measure the singlet and triplet states of a double quantum dot via both conventional Pauli spin blockade and a charge latching mechanism, and we achieve maximum fidelities of 82.9% and 99.0% in 2.08 $μ$s and 1.6 $μ$s integration times, respectively. We also use radio-frequency reflectometry to perform single-shot readout of single-spin states via spin-selective tunneling in microsecond-scale integration times.

description: The emergence of COVID-19 continues to pose severe threats to global public health. The pandemic has infected over 171 million people and claimed more than 3.5 million lives to date. We investigated the binding potential of antiviral cyanobacterial proteins including cyanovirin-N, scytovirin and phycocyanin with fundamental proteins involved in attachment and replication of SARS-CoV-2. Cyanovirin-N displayed the highest binding energy scores (−16.8 ± 0.02 kcal/mol, −12.3 ± 0.03 kcal/mol and −13.4 ± 0.02 kcal/mol, respectively) with the spike protein, the main protease (Mpro) and the papainlike protease (PLpro) of SARS-CoV-2. Cyanovirin-N was observed to interact with the crucial residues involved in the attachment of the human ACE2 receptor. Analysis of the binding affinities calculated employing the molecular mechanics-Poisson–Boltzmann surface area (MM-PBSA) approach revealed that all forms of energy, except the polar solvation energy, favourably contributed to the interactions of cyanovirin-N with the viral proteins. With particular emphasis on cyanovirin-N, the current work presents evidence for the potential inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 by cyanobacterial proteins, and offers the opportunity for in vitro and in vivo experiments to deploy the cyanobacterial proteins as valuable therapeutics against COVID-19.

description: We consider the variational complex on infinite jet space and the complex of variational derivatives for Lagrangians of multidimensional paths and study relations between them. The discussion of the variational (bi)complex is set up in terms of a flat connection in the jet bundle. We extend it to supercase using a particular new class of forms. We establish relation of the complex of variational derivatives and the variational complex. Certain calculus of Lagrangians of multidimensional paths is developed. It is shown how covariant Lagrangians of higher order can be used to represent characteristic classes.

description: In this paper we analyze the impact of the Russian ban on import of pig meat originating in the EU on the domestic pig meat price developments in Russia. We use a regime-switching price transmission model in order to identify possible changes in the long-run equilibrium between the pig meat prices of Russia and its main non-EU trading partners. Our results indicate the reduction of transaction costs in pig meat trade between Russia and its main non-EU trading partners, followed by the increase in transmission of price changes in the long-run. Though, our results indicate completely opposite results concerning domestic price relations between wholesale and end consumer pig meat prices in Russia. Overall, faced with the scarcity of pig meat on the domestic market, Russian consumers bear the biggest burden from the ban in the medium term by being faced with the significant increase in end consumer pig meat prices.
Holographic entanglement entropy for $Lif_4^{(2)}\times {S}^1\times S^5$ spacetime with string excitations

description: The (F1,D2,D8) brane configuration with $Lif_4^{(2)}\times {S}^1\times S^5$ geometry is a known Lifshitz vacua supported by massive $B_{μν}$ field in type IIA theory. This system allows exact IR excitations which couple to massless modes of the fundamental string. Due to these massless modes the solutions have a flow to a dilatonic $Lif_4^{(3)}\times S^1\times S^5$ vacua in IR. We study the entanglement entropy on the boundary of this spacetime for the strip and the disc subsystems. To our surprise net entropy density of the excitations at first order is found to be independent of the typical size of subsystems. We interpret our results in the light of first law of entanglement thermodynamics.

description: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der Aufgabe, die zwischenmenschlichen Begegnung im Kontext der Digitalen Kultur zu untersuchen. Die zwischenmenschliche Begegnung wird als elementares Phänomen zu verstehen gegeben, welches den Zugang zu sich selbst und zur Welt mit und durch andere Menschen ermöglicht. Das Leben in der Digitalen Kultur ist nicht nur von der Omnipräsenz digitaler Medien geprägt, sondern auch von einer steigenden Bedeutung von Zahlen und der wachsenden Vielfalt von Gesellschaft. Von diesen Aspekten des Wandels durch Digitalität in der Welt werden hinsichtlich der zwischenmenschlichen Begegnung Veränderungen in Bezug auf ihre Bedingungen, Möglichkeiten und letztendlich ihren Stellenwert untersucht. Mittels einer Literaturanalyse wird sich dem Thema interdisziplinär genähert, um das möglichst umfangreiche Forschungsfeld zu erfassen. Erkenntnisse der Philosophie, Anthropologie, Phänomenologie, Soziologie, sowie Psychologie zusammengetragen, dass die zwischenmenschliche Begegnung in der digitalen Kultur gleichzeitig elementare Notwenigkeit und vermeidbare Herausforderung ist. Wo zwischenmenschliche Begegnungen Halt und Sicherheit bieten sollen, scheinen die Bedingungen und Möglichkeiten, sich wirklich zu begegnen, erschwert.
