description: The dynamics of one dimensional iterative maps in the regime of fully developed chaos is studied in detail. Motivated by the observation of dynamical structures around the unstable fixed point we introduce the geometrical concept of a turning point which represents a local minimum or maximum of the trajectory. Following we investigate the highly organized and structured distribution of turning points. The turning point dynamics is discussed and the corresponding turning point map which possesses an appealing asymptotic scaling property is investigated. Strong correlations are shown to exist for the turning point trajectories which contain the information of the fixed points as well as the stability coefficients of the dynamical system. For the more specialized case of symmetric maps which possess a symmetric density we derive universal statistical properties of the corresponding turning point dynamics. Using the turning point concept we finally develop a method for the analysis of (one dimensional) time series.

description: We present a new extension of Conway's game of life for two players, which we call p2life. P2life allows one of two types of token, black or white, to inhabit a cell, and adds competitive elements into the birth and survival rules of the original game. We solve the mean-field equation for p2life and determine by simulation that the asymptotic density of p2life approaches 0.0362.

description: "There is a most profound and beautiful question associated with the observed coupling constant, e \[Dash] the amplitude for a real electron to emit or absorb a real photon. It is a simple number that has been experimentally determined to be close to 0.08542455. (My physicist friends won't recognize this number, because they like to remember it as the inverse of its square: about 137.03597 with about an uncertainty of about 2 in the last decimal place. It has been a mystery ever since it was discovered more than fifty years ago, and all good theoretical physicists put this number up on their wall and worry about it.) Immediately you would like to know where this number for a coupling comes from: is it related to pi or perhaps to the base of natural logarithms? Nobody knows. It's one of the greatest damn mysteries of physics: a magic number that comes to us with no understanding by man. You might say the "hand of God" wrote that number, and "we don't know how He pushed his pencil." We know what kind of a dance to do experimentally to measure this number very accurately, but we don't know what kind of dance to do on the computer to make this number come out, without putting it in secretly!"

description: Complex frequency modes occur for a scalar field near a rapidly rotating star {\it with ergoregion but no event horizon}. Such complex frequency modes must be included in the quantization of the field. As a model for this system, we have investigated a real scalar field with mass $μ$ in a one-dimensional square-well potential. If the depth of the potential is greater than $μ^2$, then there exist imaginary frequency modes. It is possible to quantize this simple system, but the mode operators for imaginary frequencies satisfy unusual commutation relations and do not admit a Fock-like representation or a ground state. Similar properties have been discussed already by Fulling for a complex scalar field interacting with an external electrostatic potential. We are interested in the field dynamics in the physical case where the initial state of the quantum field is specified before the complex frequency modes develop. As a model for this, we investigated a free scalar field whose ``mass" is normal in the past and becomes ``tachyonic" in the future. A particle detector in the far future placed in the in-vacuum state shows non-vanishing excitations related to the imaginary frequency modes as well. Implications of these results for the question of vacuum stability near rapidly rotating stars and possible applications to other fields in physics are discussed briefly.

description: In today's turbulent business environment, organizations face the need to rapidly respond to demands, explore new opportunities, apply evolving technologies, and create novel competitive advantages. Knowledge management (KM) and organizational entrepreneurship (OE) are two strategic tools through which companies can concurrently improve their competitive advantage while seeking new potential opportunities. Since KM and OE practically help to improve organizational performance through their own resources, they not only seem to be interrelated but they also influence each other. In this regard, the aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of KM on the OE among agricultural extension experts in Kermanshah Province, Iran. The population of this study consisted of all agricultural extension experts in Jihad-e-Agriculture management and centers of agricultural services in Kermanshah Province (N=536). Using Bartlett’s et al. (2001) sampling table, 155 extension experts were selected as the sample using the proportionate stratified sampling method (n=155). The main instrument used in this study was a questionnaire whose validity was confirmed by a panel of experts, and its reliability was established by a Cronbach's Alpha coefficient (α> 0.70). The results of multiple regression analysis revealed that KM components (knowledge creation, knowledge acquisition, knowledge organizing, knowledge storage, knowledge dissemination and knowledge application) had significant and positive effect on OE among agricultural extension experts in Kermanshah Province.

description: My research interests lie at the intersection of storytelling; literary, dramatic, and film adaptations; and social justice. Joining research examining the significance of storytelling in elementary classrooms and school libraries and the effectiveness of using the performing arts to promote social justice, my study addresses a current gap by investigating the creative process of adapting from page to stage to other inventive evolutions. Specifically, my content analysis of the additions, alterations, and omissions of traditional and innovative compositions, retellings, and remakes of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice reveals the reciprocal relationship between authorial perspectives and societal input, especially with Lydia’s story. Now recognizing her role in her potential downfall, she seeks and receives her family’s love, acceptance, and guidance, allowing for genuine, resilient healing. This sea change for storytellers and audiences, though nigh unthinkable initially, finally ends victim blaming and insists upon accountability for those truly culpable.

description: For high contrast imaging systems, the time delay is one of the major limiting factors for the performance of the extreme adaptive optics (AO) sub-system and, in turn, the final contrast. The time delay is due to the finite time needed to measure the incoming disturbance and then apply the correction. By predicting the behavior of the atmospheric disturbance over the time delay we can in principle achieve a better AO performance. Atmospheric turbulence parameters which determine the wavefront phase fluctuations have time-varying behavior. We present a stochastic model for wind speed and model time-variant atmospheric turbulence effects using varying wind speed. We test a low-order, data-driven predictor, the linear minimum mean square error predictor, for a near-infrared AO system under varying conditions. Our results show varying wind can have a significant impact on the performance of wavefront prediction, preventing it from reaching optimal performance. The impact depends on the strength of the wind fluctuations with the greatest loss in expected performance being for high wind speeds.

description: We study the +/- J random-plaquette Z_2 gauge model (RPGM) in three spatial dimensions, a three-dimensional analog of the two-dimensional +/- J random-bond Ising model (RBIM). The model is a pure Z_2 gauge theory in which randomly chosen plaquettes (occuring with concentration p) have couplings with the ``wrong sign'' so that magnetic flux is energetically favored on these plaquettes. Excitations of the model are one-dimensional ``flux tubes'' that terminate at ``magnetic monopoles.'' Electric confinement can be driven by thermal fluctuations of the flux tubes, by the quenched background of magnetic monopoles, or by a combination of the two. Like the RBIM, the RPGM has enhanced symmetry along a ``Nishimori line'' in the p-T plane (where T is the temperature). The critical concentration p_c of wrong-sign plaquettes at the confinement-Higgs phase transition along the Nishimori line can be identified with the accuracy threshold for robust storage of quantum information using topological error-correcting codes: if qubit phase errors, qubit bit-flip errors, and errors in the measurement of local check operators all occur at rates below p_c, then encoded quantum information can be protected perfectly from damage in the limit of a large code block. Numerically, we measure p_{c0}, the critical concentration along the T=0 axis (a lower bound on p_c), finding p_{c0}=.0293 +/- .0002. We also measure the critical concentration of antiferromagnetic bonds in the two-dimensional RBIM on the T=0 axis, finding p_{c0}=.1031 +/-.0001. Our value of p_{c0} is incompatible with the value of p_c=.1093 +/-.0002 found in earlier numerical studies of the RBIM, in disagreement with the conjecture that the phase boundary of the RBIM is vertical (parallel to the T axis) below the Nishimori line.

description: Methodological challenges faced by health sciences investigators during the development of evidence-based dynamic treatment regimens are often addressed using sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) designs. Despite the proliferation of SMART literature, systematic reviews of their methods, reporting practices, and findings remain sparse. This study details the development of two candidate search strategies — one according to common practice and the other strictly using term frequency analysis data — and testing of their performance in three key health sciences databases. Both novel search strategies achieved higher recall relative to a set of known relevant studies than searches reported by extant systematic reviews. In addition to providing a reusable and extensible filter for future evidence synthesis projects, they demonstrate the potential of new methods in term frequency-based search construction to accelerate similar work in the future.

description: Objective: A variety of pattern analysis techniques for model training in brain interfaces exploit neural feature dimensionality reduction based on feature ranking and selection heuristics. In the light of broad evidence demonstrating the potential sub-optimality of ranking based feature selection by any criterion, we propose to extend this focus with an information theoretic learning driven feature transformation concept. Methods: We present a maximum mutual information linear transformation (MMI-LinT), and a nonlinear transformation (MMI-NonLinT) framework derived by a general definition of the feature transformation learning problem. Empirical assessments are performed based on electroencephalographic (EEG) data recorded during a four class motor imagery brain-computer interface (BCI) task. Exploiting state-of-the-art methods for initial feature vector construction, we compare the proposed approaches with conventional feature selection based dimensionality reduction techniques which are widely used in brain interfaces. Furthermore, for the multi-class problem, we present and exploit a hierarchical graphical model based BCI decoding system. Results: Both binary and multi-class decoding analyses demonstrate significantly better performances with the proposed methods. Conclusion: Information theoretic feature transformations are capable of tackling potential confounders of conventional approaches in various settings. Significance: We argue that this concept provides significant insights to extend the focus on feature selection heuristics to a broader definition of feature transformation learning in brain interfaces.

description: The Steep Rock Iron Mines at Atikokan, Ontario operated from 1944 to 1979. The iron ore was located at the bottom of Steep Rock Lake and water management was a key factor in developing the mines. Open pit mining required a massive water diversion scheme, including the diversion of the Seine River, draining of Steep Rock Lake, and construction of various dams and other diversion structures. In order to abandon the mine, the Province of Ontario required a suitable abandonment and long-term water management plan, and assessment of the condition of the various water control and diversion structures. Reclamation of the Seine River to its original course was not possible and, consequently, the water control structures, primarily dams and tunnels, will be operating in perpetuity. The water management during the development of the mines and during operations is described, as well as some insight into future water management options after abandonment.

The probability density function P(Delta) for Delta(x,x+r) is also calculated. If Delta, P(Delta), H(Delta), and G(Delta) are expressed as theta, P(theta), h(theta), and g(theta) in a dimensionless form, the data analysis has revealed interesting simple relationships between them. These relations may be helpful to construct a turbulence model.

description: We describe a program to prove the Kepler conjecture on sphere packings. We then carry out the first step of this program. Each packing determines a decomposition of space into Delaunay simplices, which are grouped together into finite configurations called Delaunay stars. A score, which is related to the density of packings, is assigned to each Delaunay star. We conjecture that the score of every Delaunay star is at most the score of the stars in the face-centered cubic and hexagonal close packings. This conjecture implies the Kepler conjecture. To complete the first step of the program, we show that every Delaunay star that satisfies a certain regularity condition satisfies the conjecture.

description: Stellar surface magnetoconvection (granulation) creates asymmetries in the observed stellar absorption lines that can subsequently manifest themselves as spurious radial velocities shifts. In turn, this can then mask the Doppler-reflex motion induced by orbiting planets on their host stars, and represents a particular challenge for determining the masses of low-mass, long-period planets. Herein, we study this impact by creating Sun-as-a-star observations that encapsulate the granulation variability expected from 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulations. These Sun-as-a-star model observations are in good agreement with empirical observations of the Sun, but may underestimate the total variability relative to the quiet Sun due to the increased magnetic field strength in our models. We find numerous line profile characteristics linearly correlate with the disc-integrated convection-induced velocities. Removing the various correlations with the line bisector, equivalent width, and the V_asy indicator may reduce ~50-60% of the granulation noise in the measured velocities. We also find that simultaneous photometry may be a key diagnostic, as our proxy for photometric brightness also allowed us to remove ~50% of the granulation-induced radial velocity noise. These correlations and granulation-noise mitigations breakdown in the presence of low instrumental resolution and/or increased stellar rotation, as both act to smooth the observed line profile asymmetries.

 Hosts and distribution in northeastern CHINA (Fig. 1): —Uredinia and telia on Carex planiculmis (A, C, D); Carex sp. (D).
 Note: —This clade is considered as a single independent species because specimens are clustered together in the phylogenetic analysis. The morphological characteristics of the uredinial and telial stages are in agreement with descriptions of P. caricis-amblyolepis by Ito (1950) and Zhuang et al. (1998). Although spermogonial and aecial stages were not found they are suspected to be produced on Urtica because phylogenetically close species have these stages on Urtica.

description: In this paper I examine Kant’s account of maximic action and his discussion of the universal ground of evil in human nature in the Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason. First I lay out what Kant takes to be the only two kinds of factors to whose influence the agent is motivationally susceptible as she decides on an action and then carries it out. Then I outline Kant’s account of how these factors manage to motivate the agent through maxims, and discuss how an action is to be conceived in Kantian terms, in particular whether the adoption of a maxim is internal and integral to the action itself, what the ground of the adoption of a maxim is, and whether this ground is knowable. Equipped with a better account of agency and action, I then develop a practical argument for Kant’s claim that there is a universal tendency to evil in human nature. Finally, by trying to explain various kinds of evils, namely those due to fragility, impurity, depravity, and wickedness, in terms of this account, I argue that it is both explanatorily competent and practically justifiable both in general and in particular against the Augustinian objection concerning the possibility of doing evil purely for the sake of evil.

description: Symmetric Hilbert spaces such as the bosonic and the fermionic Fock spaces over some `one particle space' $\K$ are formed by certain symmetrization procedures performed on the full Fock space. We investigate alternative ways of symmetrization by building on Joyal's notion of a combinatorial species. Any such species $F$ gives rise to an endofunctor $\G_F$ of the category of Hilbert spaces with contractions mapping a Hilbert space $\K$ to a symmetric Hilbert space $\G_F(\K)$ with the same symmetry as the species $F$. A general framework for annihilation and creation operators on these spaces is developed, and compared to the generalised Brownian motions of R. Speicher and M. Bożejko. As a corollary we find that the commutation relation $a_ia_j^*-a_j^*a_i=f(N)δ_{ij}$ with $Na_i^*-a_i^*N=a_i^*$ admits a realization on a symmetric Hilbert space whenever $f$ has a power series with infinite radius of convergence and positive coefficients.

description: This dissertation is an ethnographic and historical examination of Senegalese modern identity and cosmopolitanism through urban dance music. My central argument is that local popular culture thrives not in spite of transnational influences and processes, but as a result of a Senegalese cosmopolitanism that has long valued the borrowing and integration of foreign ideas, cultural practices, and material culture into local lifeways. My research focuses on the articulation of cosmopolitanism through mbalax, an urban dance music distinct to Senegal and valued by musicians and fans for its ability to shape, produce, re-produce, and articulate overlapping ideas of their ethnic, racial, generational, gendered, religious, and national identities. Specifically, I concentrate on the practice of black, Muslim, and Wolof identities that Senegalese urban dance music articulates most consistently. The majority of my fieldwork was carried out in the nightclubs and neighborhoods in Dakar, the capital city. I performed with different mbalax groups and witnessed how the practices of Wolofness, blackness, and Sufism layered and intersected to articulate a modern Senegalese identity, or Senegaleseness. This ethnographic work was complimented by research in recording studios, television studios, radio stations, and research institutions throughout Senegal. The dissertation begins with an historical inquiry into the foundations of Senegalese cosmopolitanism from precolonial Senegambia and the spread of Wolof hegemony, to colonial Dakar and the rise of a distinctive urban Senegalese identity that set the proximate conditions for the postcolonial cultural policy of Négritude and mbalax. Subsequent chapters focus on the practices of Wolofness, Sufism, and blackness articulated through mbalax.

description: "There is a most profound and beautiful question associated with the observed coupling constant, e - the amplitude for a real electron to emit or absorb a real photon. It is a simple number that has been experimentally determined to be close to 0.08542455. (My physicist friends won't recognize this number, because they like to remember it as the inverse of its square: about 137.03597 with about an uncertainty of about 2 in the last decimal place. It has been a mystery ever since it was discovered more than fifty years ago, and all good theoretical physicists put this number up on their wall and worry about it.) Immediately you would like to know where this number for a coupling comes from: is it related to pi or perhaps to the base of natural logarithms? Nobody knows. It's one of the greatest damn mysteries of physics: a magic number that comes to us with no understanding by man. You might say the "hand of God" wrote that number, and "we don't know how He pushed his pencil." We know what kind of a dance to do experimentally to measure this number very accurately, but we don't know what kind of dance to do on the computer to make this number come out, without putting it in secretly!"

Who is Researching Women’s Health? A Bibliometric Approach to Addressing the Disparities in Citations and Publications of High Impact Medical Research
Creators: name: Simon, Erin
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description: This study aims to analyze authorship and gender disparities in high impact medical journals, as well as several research questions relating to gender disparities in first authorship and demographics of first authors performing research in subjects related to women’s health. A sample consisting of randomized controlled trials between the years 2010 to 2020 from five high impact journals were analyzed for author demographics and citation metrics. This study aims to interrogate author demographics in high impact journals, the underrepresentation of female authorship and women’s health as an important topic of study, as well as the citational disparities between male and female researchers who study women’s health.
Mayoral Political Ideology and Affordable Housing: A Comparative Analysis of the Koch and Bloomberg Administrations in the City of New York

description: This paper examines the relationship between mayoral political ideology and siting decisions for affordable housing during two different periods in New York City. On the overarching goal of housing programs—the supply of housing affordable to low-income families and thus sustainable development—the United States government had endeavored to meet two trends: (1) the geographical and social integration of communities composed of households of varying incomes and other socio-economic traits, and (2) the encouragement of private investment, with the aim of reducing reliance on public subsidies. From the political-economic standpoint of urban theory, “distributive justice” maintains an emphasis on the development of affordable housing without residential segregation, whereas the concept of “economic efficiency” refers to promoting the economic development of a community in order to attract private investment. This conflict between distinct purposes of housing developments has been apparent in New York City. Given such conditions, two different mayors in office at two different times, Edward I. Koch and Michael R. Bloomberg, both confronted housing crises and presented large plans for addressing them. Koch, who was mayor during the 1980s, as a Democrat was concerned with distributive justice, whereas Bloomberg was a Republican whose political ideology was oriented towards economic efficiency. In this paper, I test whether the political ideology of the two mayors had an impact on placements in affordable housing, and the extent to which the housing developments that were built were oriented towards social integration or encouragement for private investment. Using regression analysis, I compare the characteristics of neighborhoods where the two administrations developed affordable housing units, focusing on racial composition, socio-economic factors, and property attributes.

description: Yttrium can be loaded with hydrogen up to high concentrations causing dramatic structural and electronic changes of the host lattice. We report on angle-resolved photoemission experiments of the Y trihydride phase. Most importantly, we find the absence of metal d-bands at the Fermi level and a set of flat, H-induced bands located at much higher binding energy than predicted, indicating an increased electron affinity at H sites.
