description: This work investigates the influence of a probe string on the complexity of braneworld according to the CA (Complexity equals action) conjecture within the Horndeski gravity. In the current study, it is considered that scalar fields that source Horndeski gravity has a spatial dependence. In addition, our system contains a particle moving on the boundary, which corresponds to the insertion of a fundamental string in the higher dimensional bulk. Such an effect is given by the Nambu-Goto term, which also incorporates the time-dependence and evolution in our system. Both warp factor, scalar field, and superpotential values are derived numerically assuming appropriate initial conditions, and the growth rate of holographic complexity is analyzed within the so-called Wheeler-De Witt (WDW) patch with null-like hypersurfaces present.

description: medida que desenvolvimentos tecnológicos inovadores promovem novas ideias, os conceitos sobre educação virtual estão mudando rapidamente. Em resposta a essas transformações, muitas instituições têm trabalhado em métodos estratégicos e diferenciais para implementar um contexto de ensino híbrido, que engloba a educação presencial conectada à ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem. Este trabalho fornece uma discussão, através de algoritmos de classificação, sobre o uso do Google Classroom (GC) como um aplicativo de suporte educacional. Os dados foram coletados a partir das respostas de trezentos e cinquenta alunos matriculados em cinco cursos diferentes e uma análise para o mapeamento dessas respostas foi realizada por meio de mineração sistemática de dados. O objetivo desta análise é criar um modelo de previsão baseado em uma mineração de dados para que uma etapa de treinamento de plataforma seja executada com as classes que tiveram maior dificuldade em usar o aplicativo. Posteriormente, uma análise mais refinada foi desenvolvida com a intenção de mapear as respostas dos alunos a um nível mais aprofundado. Neste caso, elaborou-se uma matriz de correlação para demonstrar as questões com maior similaridade entre si. Posteriormente, uma análise das coordenadas paralelas foi traçada para entender as questões que apresentavam dependências lineares com as demais. Ao final, uma árvore de decisão mostrou um modelo de aprendizado para esses alunos. Com essa árvore foi possível formular uma estratégia para que os grupos com menor aceitação ao GC, possam ser treinados pedagogicamente para o uso dessa tecnologia. Como trabalho futuro, espera-se, no final do semestre, avaliar, por meio de um questionário qualitativo, a satisfação dos alunos com o uso da ferramenta Google Sala de aula, principalmente com àqueles que demonstraram desinteresse no ambiente virtual de aprendizagem. Além disso, espera-se avaliar em termos quantitativos a melhoria do desempenho dos alunos.

description: The electromagnetic implementation of cloaking, the hiding of objects from sight by diverting and reassembling illuminating electromagnetic fields has now been with us ten years, while the notion of hiding events is now five. Both schemes as initially presented neglected the inevitable dispersion that arises when a designed medium replaces vacuum under transformation. Here we define a transformation design protocol that incorporates both spacetime transformations and dispersive material responses in a natural and rigorous way. We show how this methodology is applied to an event cloak designed to appear as a homogeneous and isotropic but dispersive medium. The consequences for spacetime transformation design in dispersive materials are discussed, and some parameter and bandwidth constraints identified.
A Complete Hierarchy of Linear Systems for Certifying Quantum Entanglement of Subspaces

description: We introduce a hierarchy of linear systems for showing that a given subspace of pure quantum states is entangled (i.e., contains no product states). This hierarchy outperforms known methods already at the first level, and it is complete in the sense that every entangled subspace is shown to be so at some finite level of the hierarchy. It generalizes straightforwardly to the case of higher Schmidt rank, as well as the multipartite cases of completely and genuinely entangled subspaces. These hierarchies work extremely well in practice even in very large quantum systems, as they can be implemented via elementary linear algebra techniques rather than the semidefinite programming techniques that are required by previously-known hierarchies.

description: Sample efficiency has been a key issue in reinforcement learning (RL). An efficient agent must be able to leverage its prior experiences to quickly adapt to similar, but new tasks and situations. Meta-RL is one attempt at formalizing and addressing this issue. Inspired by recent progress in meta-RL, we introduce BIMRL, a novel multi-layer architecture along with a novel brain-inspired memory module that will help agents quickly adapt to new tasks within a few episodes. We also utilize this memory module to design a novel intrinsic reward that will guide the agent's exploration. Our architecture is inspired by findings in cognitive neuroscience and is compatible with the knowledge on connectivity and functionality of different regions in the brain. We empirically validate the effectiveness of our proposed method by competing with or surpassing the performance of some strong baselines on multiple MiniGrid environments.

description: We study the shock waves in relativistic chiral matter. We argue that the conventional Rankine-Hugoinot relations are modified due to the presence of chiral transport phenomena. We show that the entropy discontinuity in a weak shock wave is quadratic in the pressure discontinuity when the effect of chiral transport becomes sufficiently large. We also show that rarefaction shock waves, which do not exist in usual nonchiral fluids, can appear in chiral matter. The direction of shock wave propagation in a vorticity is found to be completely determined by the direction of the vorticity and the chirality of fermions. These features are exemplified by shock propagation in dense neutrino matter in the hydrodynamic regime.

description: We formulate a general theory to study the time-dependent charge and energy transport of an adiabatically driven interacting quantum dot in contact to a reservoir for arbitrary amplitudes of the driving potential. We study within this framework the Anderson impurity model with a local ac gate voltage. We show that the exact adiabatic quantum dynamics of this system is fully determined by the behavior of the charge susceptibility of the frozen problem. At $T=0$, we evaluate the dynamic response functions with the numerical renormalization group (NRG). The time-resolved heat production exhibits a pronounced feature described by an instantaneous Joule law characterized by an universal resistance quantum $R_0=h/(2 e^2)$ for each spin channel. We show that this law holds in non-interacting as well as in the interacting system and also when the system is spin-polarized. In addition, in the presence of a static magnetic field, the interplay between many-body interactions and spin polarization leads to a non-trivial energy exchange between electrons with different spin components.

description: Oxidative stress may play a pathogenic role in chronic hepatitis C (CHC). The present study examined the oxidative status in plasma of patients with CHC who received pegylated interferon and ribavirin therapy. The following groups were included: (1) sustained virological response (28 patients), (2) null response (26 patients), (3) breakthrough (24 patients), (4) relapse (24 patients), (5) spontaneous cure (23 patients) and (6) twenty five normal subjects as a control group. Markers of oxidative stress including plasma malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, reduced glutathione, total antioxidant capacity and uric acid as well as serum ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, albumin, prothrombin time were studied. The study indicated significant decline in reduced glutathione and total antioxidant capacity and markedly elevated levels of malondialdehyde and nitric oxide in all groups compared with the controls. Null response group had the highest levels of malondialdehyde and nitric oxide. Nitric oxide was significantly higher in those with null response compared with all other groups and with control subjects. Uric acid was significantly higher in spontaneous cure group compared with all other groups and with the controls. We concluded that CHC patients had increased oxidative stress. The oxidative status in plasma of these patients was not changed by antiviral therapy. The study also showed an important contribution of nitric oxide in null response patients. High serum uric acid did not interfere with the response and/or did not predict the response to antiviral therapy.

description: The canonical approach, which was developed for solving the sign problem, may suffer from a new type of sign problem. In the canonical approach, the grand partition function is written as a fugacity expansion: $Z_G(μ,T) = \sum_n Z_C(n,T) ξ^n$, where $ξ=\exp(μ/T)$ is the fugacity, and $Z_C(n,T)$ are given as averages over a Monte Carlo update, $\langle z_n\rangle$. We show that the complex phase of $z_n$ is proportional to $n$ at each Monte Carlo step. Although $\langle z_n\rangle$ take real positive values, the values of $z_n$ fluctuate rapidly when $n$ is large, especially in the confinement phase, which gives a limit on $n$. We discuss possible remedies for this problem.

description: The License Plate Recognition (LPR) field has made impressive advances in the last decade due to novel deep learning approaches combined with the increased availability of training data. However, it still has some open issues, especially when the data come from low-resolution (LR) and low-quality images/videos, as in surveillance systems. This work focuses on license plate (LP) reconstruction in LR and low-quality images. We present a Single-Image Super-Resolution (SISR) approach that extends the attention/transformer module concept by exploiting the capabilities of PixelShuffle layers and that has an improved loss function based on LPR predictions. For training the proposed architecture, we use synthetic images generated by applying heavy Gaussian noise in terms of Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) to the original high-resolution (HR) images. In our experiments, the proposed method outperformed the baselines both quantitatively and qualitatively. The datasets we created for this work are publicly available to the research community at https://github.com/valfride/lpr-rsr/

X-ray counterpart of gravitational waves due to binary neutron star mergers: light curves, luminosity functions, and event rate densities

description: Zhang (2013) proposed a type of GRB-less X-ray transient associated with double neutron star (NS-NS) mergers under the conjecture of a rapidly-spinning magnetar merger product with the line of sight off the short GRB jet. We investigate possible light curves of these transients by considering different observer's viewing angles. We perform Monte Carlo simulations to calculate the peak luminosity function (LF) and event rate density of these X-ray transients. By considering that a fraction of massive neutron stars may be supra-massive and later collapse into black holes after spinning down, we investigate how the predicted LF depends on the equation of state (EoS) of the central object and the geometry of the system. In general, the LF can be fit by two log-normal distributions peaking around $10^{46.4}$ and $10^{49.6}$ $\rm erg\,s^{-1}$, corresponding to the trapped and free zones, respectively. For the majority of the EoS models, the current non-detection is consistent with having a free zone solid angle at most a few times of the solid angle of the short GRB jet. The event rate density of these X-ray transients is around a few tens of $\rm Gpc^{-3}yr^{-1}$ for luminosity above $10^{45}$ $\rm erg\,s^{-1}$. We predict that future X-ray telescopes (such as Einstein Probe) with sensitivity $\sim 10^{-11}$ $\rm erg\,s^{-1}\,cm^{-2}$ would detect as many as several tens of such transients per year per steradian. Within 200 Mpc, the aLIGO average range for NS-NS mergers, the estimated event rate of these transients is about 1 transient per year all sky.

description: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a risk factor of coronary heart diseases. The estimation of LDL-C (LDL-Cal) level was performed using Friedewald’s equation for triglyceride (TG) level less than 400 mg/dL. Therefore, the aim of this study is to generate a new formula for LDL-Cal and validate the correlation coefficient between LDL-Cal and LDL-C directly measured (LDL-Direct). A data set of 1786 individuals receiving annual medical check-ups from the Faculty of Medical Technology, Mahidol University, Thailand in 2008 was used in this study. Lipid profiles including total cholesterol (TC), TG, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and LDL-C were determined using Roche/Hitachi modular system analyzer. The estimated LDL-C was obtained using Friedewald’s equation and the homogenous enzymatic method. The level of TG was divided into 6 groups (TG<200, <300, <400, <500, <600 and < 1000 mg/dL) for constructing the LDL-Cal formula. The pace regression model was used to construct the candidate formula for the LDL-Cal and determine the correlation coefficient (r) with the LDL-Direct. The candidate LDL-Cal formula was generated for 6 groups of TG levels that displayed well correlation between LDL-Cal and LDL-Direct. Interestingly, The TG level was less than 1000 mg/dL, the regression model was able to generate the equation as shown as strong r of 0.9769 with LDL-Direct. Furthermore, external data set (n = 666) with TG measurement (36-1480 mg/dL) was used to validate new formula which displayed high r of 0.971 between LDL-Cal and LDL-direct. This study explored a new formula for LDL-Cal which exhibited higher r of 0.9769 and far beyond the limitation of TG more than 1000 mg/dL and potential used for estimating LDL-C in routine clinical laboratories.

description: We present a formulation of Einstein--Maxwell vacuum fields due to plane fronted electromagnetic waves sharing their wave fronts with gravitational waves. This is based on a recent geometrical reconstruction of plane fronted wave fields by the authors which clearly identifies the cases in which the wave fronts collide or do not collide. In the former case our construction suggests an explicit example of a searchlight beam, accompanied by gravitational radiation, which sweeps across the sky. This gravito--electromagnetic searchlight and its properties are described in detail.

description: In the presence of a strong magnetic field a stellar equilibrium configuration, aided by the Lorentz force, can support a larger mass than a non-magnetic one. This has been considered a possible explanation of the super-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs giving rise to over-luminous Type-Ia supernovae. We present here linear and non-linear perturbation studies of such strongly magetised configurations and show that axisymmetric configurations with poloidal or toroidal fields are unstable. The numerical evolution of the perturbations shows instability after about an Alfvén crossing time. This time scale is very short for the magnetically supported super-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs. Uniform rotation about the symmetry axis can reduce the growth rate but can not stabilize the super-massive configurations. It is concluded that long-lived super-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs supported by magnetic field are unlikely to occur in Nature.

description: A robótica é uma das áreas de estudo que mais se desenvolveu dentre os anos, englobando conhecimentos de engenharia, automação e controle, ciência da computação, matemática e estatística. Desenvolvida com o objetivo de auxiliar o ser humano em atividades consideradas cansativas e desgastantes, algumas técnicas de programação são utilizadas para solucionar tais tarefas, uma das principais delas é o uso de inteligência artificial (IA). Neste contexto, a presente iniciação científica objetiva solucionar a tarefa de vigilância, utilizando técnicas de IA, como inteligência de enxames, autômatos celulares e inteligência de colônia de formigas, de modo a obter o melhor desempenho em seu trajeto no ambiente determinado. O raciocínio é fundamentado no trabalho apresentado em (Batista Souza; Araújo Lima, 2019). Logo, um controlador foi desenvolvido em linguagem padrão C utilizando o sistema operacional Ubuntu e testado no mesmo. Primeiramente, ambientes com tamanho 20 × 30 e 30 × 30 células são utilizados para representar o local a ser vigiado pelo robô, de modo que o feromônio a ser depositado e consequentemente a ser evaporado das células, conforme o passar do tempo, é dito por equações predefinidas que podem ser alteradas vindo também a interferir diretamente no comportamento e resultados do controlador. Assim, para cada ambiente testado o robô se movimenta 10000 vezes, sempre iniciando sua tarefa de pontos de partida diferentes dos anteriores, até ter o ter feito de 100 posições iniciais diferentes. Ao final, matrizes bidimensionais com os valores de passos dados e de feromônio acumulado em cada célula ao final de seus ciclos de vigilância no ambiente são exibidas, podendo então, com o auxílio do software matemático MATLAB obter gráficos que ilustrem melhor para o ser humano o desempenho do robô, mostrando os locais que mais foram visitados e como o feromônio se dissipou pelo ambiente. A partir dos resultados obtidos, é possível concluir que um time de robôs se torna mais

description: Glass-forming monohydroxy alcohols exhibit not only a structural relaxation but also a slower, single-exponential Debye-type relaxation process which already freezes in the liquid phase. By using dielectric spectroscopy, we study how these relaxations evolve when the aprotic alkyl halide n-bromobutane is added to n-butanol, thereby diluting the hydrogen-bond network. The structural relaxation times smoothly vary over the concentration range of this completely miscible binary system. The Debye process remains unaffected by the dilution of the OH groups up to n-bromobutane mole fractions of about 50%. For larger hydroxy dilutions, it turns rather abruptly into a feature which develops significant spectral broadening and it becomes faster. In the dilute limit, the decoupling between the time scale of the Debye process and that of the structural relaxation amounts to almost 6 decades when extrapolated to the glass transition temperature. This relatively large, strongly concentration dependent decoupling is interpreted in analogy to normal modes in polymers. The present results suggest that the structural and the Debye-like responses of monohydroxy alcohols are unrelated.

description: The dynamics of many epidemic compartmental models for infectious diseases that spread in a single host population present a second-order phase transition. This transition occurs as a function of the infectivity parameter, from the absence of infected individuals to an endemic state. Here, we study this transition, from the perspective of dynamical systems, for a discrete-time compartmental epidemic model known as Microscopic Markov Chain Approach, whose applicability for forecasting future scenarios of epidemic spreading has been proved very useful during the COVID-19 pandemic. We show that there is an endemic state which is stable and a global attractor and that its existence is a consequence of a transcritical bifurcation. This mathematical analysis grounds the results of the model in practical applications.

description: For integers $m$ and $n$, we study the problem of finding good lower bounds for the size of progression-free sets in $(\mathbb{Z}_{m}^{n},+)$. Let $r_{k}(\mathbb{Z}_{m}^{n})$ denote the maximal size of a subset of $\mathbb{Z}_{m}^{n}$ without arithmetic progressions of length $k$ and let $P^{-}(m)$ denote the least prime factor of $m$. We construct explicit progression-free sets and obtain the following improved lower bounds for $r_{k}(\mathbb{Z}_{m}^{n})$: If $k\geq 5$ is odd and $P^{-}(m)\geq (k+2)/2$, then \[r_k(\mathbb{Z}_m^n) \gg_{m,k} \frac{\bigl\lfloor \frac{k-1}{k+1}m +1\bigr\rfloor^{n}}{n^{\lfloor \frac{k-1}{k+1}m \rfloor/2}}. \] If $k\geq 4$ is even, $P^{-}(m) \geq k$ and $m \equiv -1 \bmod k$, then \[r_{k}(\mathbb{Z}_{m}^{n}) \gg_{m,k} \frac{\bigl\lfloor \frac{k-2}{k}m + 2\bigr\rfloor^{n}}{n^{\lfloor \frac{k-2}{k}m + 1\rfloor/2}}.\] Moreover, we give some further improved lower bounds on $r_k(\mathbb{Z}_p^n)$ for primes $p \leq 31$ and progression lengths $4 \leq k \leq 8$.

description: We construct non-linear inflaton potential energy densities that describe not-necessarily very-slowly-rolling closed and open inflation models, and compute tilted primordial spatial inhomogeneity power spectra that follow from quantum mechanical fluctuations during inflation in these models. Earlier non-flat inflation model power spectra computations assumed an inflaton potential energy density with a linear slope that resulted in very-slow-roll during inflation and untilted power spectra. These new tilted power spectra differ from those that have previously been used to study cosmological data in non-flat cosmological models.

Hard Photodisintegration of 3He into pd pair

description: The recent measurements of high energy photodisintegration of the $^3He$ nucleus to the $pd$ pair at $90^0$ center of mass demonstrated an energy scaling consistent with the quark counting rule with unprecedentedly large exponent of $s^{-17}$. To understand the underlying mechanism of this process we extended the theoretical formalism of hard rescattering mechanism to calculate the $γ^3He\rightarrow pd$ reaction. In HRM the incoming high energy photon strikes a quark from one of the nucleons in the target which subsequently undergoes hard rescattering with the quarks from the other nucleons generating hard two-body system in the final state of the reaction. Within the HRM we derived the parameter free expression for the differential cross section of the reaction, which is expressed through the $^3He\rightarrow pd$ transition spectral function, cross section of hard $pd\rightarrow pd$ scattering and the effective charge of the quarks being interchanged during the hard rescattering process. The numerical estimates of all these factors resulted in the magnitude of the cross section which is surprisingly in a good agreement with the data.

description: To date, the best-performing blind super-resolution (SR) techniques follow one of two paradigms: A) generate and train a standard SR network on synthetic low-resolution - high-resolution (LR - HR) pairs or B) attempt to predict the degradations an LR image has suffered and use these to inform a customised SR network. Despite significant progress, subscribers to the former miss out on useful degradation information that could be used to improve the SR process. On the other hand, followers of the latter rely on weaker SR networks, which are significantly outperformed by the latest architectural advancements. In this work, we present a framework for combining any blind SR prediction mechanism with any deep SR network, using a metadata insertion block to insert prediction vectors into SR network feature maps. Through comprehensive testing, we prove that state-of-the-art contrastive and iterative prediction schemes can be successfully combined with high-performance SR networks such as RCAN and HAN within our framework. We show that our hybrid models consistently achieve stronger SR performance than both their non-blind and blind counterparts. Furthermore, we demonstrate our framework's robustness by predicting degradations and super-resolving images from a complex pipeline of blurring, noise and compression.

description: We deposited Ag_2O films in PLD system on glass substrate for a fixed partial oxygen gas pressure (70 mili Torr) with the variation of laser energy from 75 to 215 mJ/Pulse. The XRD patterns confirm that the films have well crystallinity and deposited as hexagonal lattice and the crystalline size increases from 26.38 nm to 27.27 nm. The FESEM images show that the particle size of the films increases from 34.84 nm to 65.83 nm. The composition of the films is analyzed from EDX spectra which show that the percentage of oxygen increases from 41.03% to 48.38% with the increment of laser energy. From the optical characterization, it is observed that the optical band gap appears in the visible optical range in an increasing order from 0.87 to 0.98 eV with the increment of laser energy. Our analysis concludes that the Ag_2O thin films, deposited with these parameters, can be considered as a good absorbent layer for solar photovoltaic application.
