description: Recent advancements in wavefront shaping techniques have facilitated the study of complex structured light's propagation with orbital angular momentum (OAM) within various media. The introduction of a spiral phase modulation to the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beam during its paraxial propagation is facilitated by the negative gradient of the medium's refractive index's temporal change, resulting in an accelerated retardation in OAM twist. This approach attains remarkable sensitivity to even the slightest variations in the medium's refractive index (10^(-6)). The phase memory of OAM is revealed as the ability of twisted light preserving initial helical phase even propagating through the turbid tissue-like multiple scattering medium. The results confirm fascinating opportunities of the exploiting OAM light in biomedical applications, e.g. such as non-invasive trans-cutaneous glucose diagnosis and optical communication through biological tissues and other optically dense media.

description: We show that the confinement-deconfinement phase transition of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with 16 supercharges in various dimensions can be realized through the Hawking-Page phase transition between the near horizon geometries of black Dp-branes and BPS Dp-branes by removing a small radius region in the geometry in order to realize a confinement phase, which generalizes the Herzog's discussion for the holographic hard-wall AdS/QCD model. Removing a small radius region in the gravitational dual corresponds to introducing an IR cutoff in the dual field theory. We also discuss the Hawking-Page phase transition between thermal $AdS_5$, $AdS_4$, $AdS_7$ spaces and R-charged AdS black holes coming from the spherical reduction of the decoupling limit of rotating D3-, M2-, and M5- branes in type IIB supergravity and 11 dimensional supergravity in grand canonical ensembles, where the IR cutoff also plays a crucial role in the existence of the phase transition.

description: Graphene's intrinsically corrugated and wrinkled topology fundamentally influences its electronic, mechanical, and chemical properties. Experimental techniques allow the manipulation of pristine graphene and the controlled production of defects which allows to control the atomic out-of-plane fluctuations and, thus, tune graphene's properties. Here, we perform large scale machine learning-driven molecular dynamics simulations to understand the impact of defects on the structure of graphene. We find that defects cause significantly higher corrugation leading to a strongly wrinkled surface. The magnitude of this structural transformation strongly depends on the defect concentration and specific type of defect. Analysing the atomic neighborhood of the defects reveals that the extent of these morphological changes depends on the preferred geometrical orientation and the interactions between defects. While our work highlights that defects can strongly affect graphene's morphology, it also emphasises the differences between distinct types by linking the global structure to the local environment of the defects.
Die and mould making using the polyhedral concept

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The ultimate goal of many engineering pursuits is the application of science and mathematics to the production of manufactured products. Manufacturing is the transformation of a designers's ideas into three-dimensional objects with practical application in the real world. Manufacture of products require tools (dies, moulds, punches, etc.) in processes ranging from casting and injection-moulding to forging, punching and coining. These tools, as are all three-dimensional. solids, are bounded by surfaces. Different manufacturing processes present different problems to designers; for example, shrinkage and flash in casting and spring-back in forging or deep drawing. The traditional approach in tool and die-making is based on experienced patternmakers or sculptors making the required object based on engineering blue-prints as well as their own intuition and judgement. With the advent of high speed computers and numerically controlled machines, these traditional procedures can be incorporated into an integrated approach by applying CAD/CAM techniques. The purpose of this research is to develop such general methods for the modelling and making of dies and moulds. Cavity dies consist of bounding surfaces that are either analytical or non-analytical. Analytical shapes are usually designed surfaces which are combinations of surface-elements represented by well known mathematical equations. Non-analytical shapes are often natural surfaces defined by randomly measured data. These require sorting and ordering. In addition, shapes such as ducts, shells and bottles lend themselves to special treatments requiring the input of particular parameters for production of similar items over a long production run. In the work which follows, all of these types of die-cavities have been examined. Examples are given to show how various requirements may be handled by an integrated CAD/CAM approach. Computer routines have been developed in such a way that no special skills in mathematics and programming are required on the part of the user of the programs which can be incorporated into a low cost, fully automated turn-key system.

description: We have in earlier papers presented an extension of Mueller's dipole cascade model, which includes sub-leading effects from energy conservation and running coupling as well as colour suppressed saturation effects from pomeron loops via a ``dipole swing''. The model was applied to describe the total and diffractive cross sections in $pp$ and $γ^*p$ collisions, and also the elastic cross section in $pp$ scattering. In this paper we extend the model to describe the corresponding quasi-elastic cross sections in $γ^*p$, namely the exclusive production of vector mesons and deeply virtual compton scattering. Also for these reactions we find a good agrement with measured cross sections. In addition we obtain a reasonable description of the $t$-dependence of the elastic $pp$ and quasi-elastic $γ^\star p$ cross sections.

Investigating the composition of the K$^*_0(700)$ state with $π^\pm$K$^0_{\rm S}$ correlations at the LHC

description: The first measurements of femtoscopic correlations with the particle pair combinations $π^\pm$K$^0_{\rm S}$ in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are reported by the ALICE experiment. Using the femtoscopic approach, it is shown that it is possible to study the elusive K$^*_0(700)$ particle that has been considered a tetraquark candidate for over forty years. Source and final-state interaction parameters are extracted by fitting a model assuming a Gaussian source to the experimentally measured two-particle correlation functions. The final-state interaction in the $π^\pm$K$^0_{\rm S}$ system is modeled through a resonant scattering amplitude, defined in terms of a mass and a coupling parameter. The extracted mass and Breit-Wigner width, derived from the coupling parameter, of the final-state interaction are found to be consistent with previous measurements of the K$^*_0(700)$. The small value and increase of the correlation strength with increasing source size support the hypothesis that the K$^*_0(700)$ is a four-quark state, i.e. a tetraquark state of the form $({\rm q_1},\overline{\rm q_2}, {\rm q_3}, \overline{\rm q_3})$ in which ${\rm q_1}$, ${\rm q_2}$, and ${\rm q_3}$ indicate the flavor of the valence quarks of the $π$ and K$^0_{\rm S}$. This latter trend is also confirmed via a simple geometric model that assumes a tetraquark structure of the K$^*_0(700)$ resonance.

Beyond Gross-Pitaevskii Mean Field Theory
Creators: name: Proukakis, N. P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Other Condensed Matter (cond-mat.other)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A large number of effects related to the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) can be understood in terms of lowest order mean field theory, whereby the entire system is assumed to be condensed, with thermal and quantum fluctuations completely ignored. Such a treatment leads to the Gross-Pitaevskii Equation (GPE) used extensively throughout this book. Although this theory works remarkably well for a broad range of experimental parameters, a more complete treatment is required for understanding various experiments, including experiments with solitons and vortices. Such treatments should include the dynamical coupling of the condensate to the thermal cloud, the effect of dimensionality, the role of quantum fluctuations, and should also describe the critical regime, including the process of condensate formation. The aim of this Chapter is to give a brief but insightful overview of various recent theories, which extend beyond the GPE. To keep the discussion brief, only the main notions and conclusions will be presented. This Chapter generalizes the presentation of Chapter 1, by explicitly maintaining fluctuations around the condensate order parameter. While the theoretical arguments outlined here are generic, the emphasis is on approaches suitable for describing single weakly-interacting atomic Bose gases in harmonic traps. Interesting effects arising when condensates are trapped in double-well potentials and optical lattices, as well as the cases of spinor condensates, and atomic-molecular coupling, along with the modified or alternative theories needed to describe them, will not be covered here.

description: In migrating production workloads to cloud, enterprises often face the daunting task of evolving monolithic applications toward a microservice architecture. At IBM, we developed a tool called Mono2Micro to assist with this challenging task. Mono2Micro performs spatio-temporal decomposition, leveraging well-defined business use cases and runtime call relations to create functionally cohesive partitioning of application classes. Our preliminary evaluation of Mono2Micro showed promising results. How well does Mono2Micro perform against other decomposition techniques, and how do practitioners perceive the tool? This paper describes the technical foundations of Mono2Micro and presents results to answer these two questions. To answer the first question, we evaluated Mono2Micro against four existing techniques on a set of open-source and proprietary Java applications and using different metrics to assess the quality of decomposition and tool's efficiency. Our results show that Mono2Micro significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in specific metrics well-defined for the problem domain. To answer the second question, we conducted a survey of twenty-one practitioners in various industry roles who have used Mono2Micro. This study highlights several benefits of the tool, interesting practitioner perceptions, and scope for further improvements. Overall, these results show that Mono2Micro can provide a valuable aid to practitioners in creating functionally cohesive and explainable microservice decompositions.

description: We study Josephson current in superconductor / diffusive ferromagnet /superconductor junctions by using the recursive Green function method. When the exchange potential in a ferromagnet is sufficiently large as compared to the pair potential in a superconductor, an ensemble average of Josephson current is much smaller than its mesoscopic fluctuations. The Josephson current vanishes when the exchange potential is extremely large so that a ferromagnet is half-metallic. Spin-flip scattering at junction interfaces drastically changes the characteristic behavior of Josephson current. In addition to spin-singlet Cooper pairs, equal-spin triplet pairs penetrate into a half metal. Such equal-spin pairs have an unusual symmetry property called odd-frequency symmetry and carry the Josephson current through a half metal. The penetration of odd-frequency pairs into a half metal enhances the low energy quasiparticle density of states, which could be detected experimentally by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. We will also show that odd-frequency pairs in a half metal cause a nonmonotonic temperature dependence of the critical Josephson current.

description: This study investigates the misclassification excess risk bound in the context of 1-bit matrix completion, a significant problem in machine learning involving the recovery of an unknown matrix from a limited subset of its entries. Matrix completion has garnered considerable attention in the last two decades due to its diverse applications across various fields. Unlike conventional approaches that deal with real-valued samples, 1-bit matrix completion is concerned with binary observations. While prior research has predominantly focused on the estimation error of proposed estimators, our study shifts attention to the prediction error. This paper offers theoretical analysis regarding the prediction errors of two previous works utilizing the logistic regression model: one employing a max-norm constrained minimization and the other employing nuclear-norm penalization. Significantly, our findings demonstrate that the latter achieves the minimax-optimal rate without the need for an additional logarithmic term. These novel results contribute to a deeper understanding of 1-bit matrix completion by shedding light on the predictive performance of specific methodologies.

In practice, one often encounters situations where the spectral information is only known over a dense subalgebra. We investigate such relatively spectral morphisms. We prove a relative version of the Density Theorem regarding isomorphism in K-theory. We also solve Swan's problem for the connected stable rank, in fact for an entire hierarchy of higher connected stable ranks that we introduce.

In particular, in the standard representation, the matrices act on the space of queue lengths. For N >2 the matrices in fact become tensor products of elements of quadratic algebras. This enables us to give a purely algebraic proof of the stationary measure which we present for N =3.

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)

description: In this study, we address the problem of high-dimensional binary classification. Our proposed solution involves employing an aggregation technique founded on exponential weights and empirical hinge loss. Through the employment of a suitable sparsity-inducing prior distribution, we demonstrate that our method yields favorable theoretical results on prediction error. The efficiency of our procedure is achieved through the utilization of Langevin Monte Carlo, a gradient-based sampling approach. To illustrate the effectiveness of our approach, we conduct comparisons with the logistic Lasso on simulated data and a real dataset. Our method frequently demonstrates superior performance compared to the logistic Lasso.

description: The accretion of a spherically symmetric, collisionless kinetic gas cloud on to a Schwarzschild black hole is analysed. Whereas previous studies have treated this problem by specifying boundary conditions at infinity, here the properties of the gas are given at a sphere of finite radius. The corresponding steady-state solutions are computed using four different models with an increasing level of sophistication, starting with the purely radial infall of Newtonian particles and culminating with a fully general relativistic calculation in which individual particles have angular momentum. The resulting mass accretion rates are analysed and compared with previous models, including the standard Bondi model for a hydrodynamic flow. We apply our models to the supermassive black holes Sgr A* and M87*, and we discuss how their low luminosity could be partially explained by a kinetic description involving angular momentum. Furthermore, we get results consistent with previous model-dependent bounds for the accretion rate imposed by rotation measures of the polarised light coming from Sgr A* and with estimations of the accretion rate of M87* from the Event Horizon Telescope collaboration. Our methods and results could serve as a first approximation for more realistic black hole accretion models in various astrophysical scenarios in which the accreted material is expected to be nearly collisionless.

We vary the magnetization $σ\gg1$, defined as the ratio of magnetic tension to plasma inertia, and the strength of cooling losses. Magnetic reconnection under such conditions can operate in magnetically dominated coronae around accreting black holes, which produce hard X-rays through Comptonization of seed soft photons. We find that the particle energy spectrum is dominated by a peak at mildly relativistic energies, which results from bulk motions of cooled plasmoids. The peak has a quasi-Maxwellian shape with an effective temperature of $\sim 100$ keV, which depends only weakly on the flow magnetization and the strength of radiative cooling. The mean bulk energy of the reconnected plasma is roughly independent of $σ$, whereas the variance is larger for higher magnetizations. The spectra also display a high-energy tail, which receives $\sim 25$% of the dissipated reconnection power for $σ=10$ and $\sim 40$% for $σ=40$. We complement our particle-in-cell studies with a Monte-Carlo simulation of the transfer of seed soft photons through the reconnection layer, and find the escaping X-ray spectrum. The simulation demonstrates that Comptonization is dominated by the bulk motions in the chain of Compton-cooled plasmoids and, for $σ\sim 10$, yields a spectrum consistent with the typical hard state of accreting black holes.

Rapporti affettivi nella post-modernità liquida: Nichts als Gespenster di Judith Hermann
Creators: name: D'Alessandro, Carolina

description: This essay examines three short stories from the collection Nichts als Gespenster by the Berliner writer Judith Hermann. In particular, this paper  focuses on the concept of those interpersonal relationships originated  from a liquid, postmodern society. By analysing the work of some  contemporary sociologists, this essay comes to the conclusion that  individuals are no longer the main actors of social events and  processes. In modern society, the real main characters are systems and  environments, and the individual is forced to live without a certain or  determined role, in permanent loneliness.

Echoes of myth : the feature films of John Boorman
Creators: name: Johnson, Peter Wilton
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: All eight feature films (1965-1981) of John Boorman were viewed and analyzed according to Auteur Theory. The recondite themes and motifs found throughout his work revealed a preoccupationwwith character and events in the Grail legend. Thematically, Boorman's rendering of the Arthurian protagonist revealed him in the modern context of the private eye, the soldier, the defrocked priest, the displaced aristocrat, and the wilderness adventurer. Merlin figures, and women figures intrinsic to the Grail legend appear in all his work. Aesthetically Boorman's feature films are veiled allegories of the Arthurian quest. Those recondite stylistic elements as abstract framing, colour distortion, elliptical editing, and overlapped and electronic sound were found to modify the cinematic conventions of those genres in which he worked. Boorman's mise-en-scene often approached the surreal. His action hovered between the world of slapstick, and the world of dream. The world-view that emerged from these feature-films makes Boorman a religious existentialist, or an Immanentist.

description: A chiral quark model approach is extended to the study of the $πN$ scattering at low energies. The process of $π^{-}p \to ηn$ near threshold is investigated. The model is successful in describing the differential cross sections and total cross section near the $η$ production threshold. The roles of the resonances in $n\leq 2$ shells are clarified. Near threshold, the $S_{11}(1535)$ dominates the reactions, while the interferences from the $S_{11}(1650)$ turn out to be destructive around $W\lesssim 1.6$ GeV. The $D_{13}(1520)$ is crucial to give correct shapes of the differential cross sections. The nucleon pole term contributions are significant. The $P_{11}(1710)$ plays an important role around the c.m. energy $W=1.7$ GeV, it is crucial to produce an enhancement in the region of $W>1.6$ GeV as suggested by the data for total cross section. The $t$-channel is negligible in the reactions.

description: Social media such as Instagram and Twitter have become important platforms for marketing and selling illicit drugs. Detection of online illicit drug trafficking has become critical to combat the online trade of illicit drugs. However, the legal status often varies spatially and temporally; even for the same drug, federal and state legislation can have different regulations about its legality. Meanwhile, more drug trafficking events are disguised as a novel form of advertising commenting leading to information heterogeneity. Accordingly, accurate detection of illicit drug trafficking events (IDTEs) from social media has become even more challenging. In this work, we conduct the first systematic study on fine-grained detection of IDTEs on Instagram. We propose to take a deep multimodal multilabel learning (DMML) approach to detect IDTEs and demonstrate its effectiveness on a newly constructed dataset called multimodal IDTE(MM-IDTE). Specifically, our model takes text and image data as the input and combines multimodal information to predict multiple labels of illicit drugs. Inspired by the success of BERT, we have developed a self-supervised multimodal bidirectional transformer by jointly fine-tuning pretrained text and image encoders. We have constructed a large-scale dataset MM-IDTE with manually annotated multiple drug labels to support fine-grained detection of illicit drugs. Extensive experimental results on the MM-IDTE dataset show that the proposed DMML methodology can accurately detect IDTEs even in the presence of special characters and style changes attempting to evade detection.

description: Lyman-Alpha Emitting galaxies (LAEs) are typically young, low-mass, star-forming galaxies with little extinction from interstellar dust. Their low dust attenuation allows their Ly$α$ emission to shine brightly in spectroscopic and photometric observations, providing an observational window into the high-redshift universe. Narrowband surveys reveal large, uniform samples of LAEs at specific redshifts that probe large scale structure and the temporal evolution of galaxy properties. The One-hundred-deg$^2$ DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN) utilizes three custom-made narrowband filters on the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) to discover LAEs at three equally spaced periods in cosmological history. In this paper, we introduce the hybrid-weighted double-broadband continuum estimation technique, which yields improved estimation of Ly$α$ equivalent widths. Using this method, we discover 6032, 5691, and 4066 LAE candidates at $z =$ 2.4, 3.1, and 4.5 in the extended COSMOS field ($\sim$9 deg$^2$). We find that [O II] emitters are a minimal contaminant in our LAE samples, but that interloping Green Pea-like [O III] emitters are important for our redshift 4.5 sample. We introduce an innovative method for identifying [O II] and [O III] emitters via a combination of narrowband excess and galaxy colors, enabling their study as separate classes of objects. We present scaled median stacked SEDs for each galaxy sample, revealing the overall success of our selection methods. We also calculate rest-frame Ly$α$ equivalent widths for our LAE samples and find that the EW distributions are best fit by exponential functions with scale lengths of $w_0$ = 53 $\pm$ 1, 65 $\pm$ 1, and 59 $\pm$ 1 Angstroms, respectively.

description: We present an approach of mass generation for Standard Model particles in which fermions acquire masses from their interactions with physical vacuum and gauge bosons acquire masses from charge fluctuations of vacuum. A remarkable fact of this approach is that left-handed neutrinos are massive because they have a weak charge. We obtain consistently masses of electroweak gauge bosons in terms of fermion masses and running coupling constants of strong, electromagnetic and weak interactions. On the last part of this work we focus our interest to present some consequences of this approach as for instance we first show a restriction about the possible number of fermion families. Next we establish a prediction for top quark mass and finally fix the highest limit for the summing of the square of neutrino masses.

An adaptive boundary element method for the transmission problem with hyperbolic metamaterials

description: In this work we present an adaptive boundary element method for computing the electromagnetic response of wave interactions in hyperbolic metamaterials. One unique feature of hyperbolic metamaterial is the strongly directional wave in its propagating cone, which induces sharp transition for the solution of the integral equation across the cone boundary when wave starts to decay or grow exponentially. In order to avoid a global refined mesh over the whole boundary, we employ a two-level a posteriori error estimator and an adaptive mesh refinement procedure to resolve the singularity locally for the solution of the integral equation. Such an adaptive procedure allows for the reduction of the degree of freedom significantly for the integral equation solver while achieving desired accuracy for the solution. In addition, to resolve the fast transition of the fundamental solution and its derivatives accurately across the propagation cone boundary, adaptive numerical quadrature rules are applied to evaluate the integrals for the stiff matrices. Finally, in order to formulate the integral equations over the boundary, we also derive the limits of layer potentials and their derivatives in the hyperbolic media when the target points approach the boundary.
Magic numbers for vibrational frequency of charged particles on a sphere

description: Finding minimum energy distribution of $N$ charges on a sphere is known as the Thomson problem. Here, we study the vibrational properties of the $N$ charges in the lowest energy state within the harmonic approximation for $10\le N\le 200$ and for selected sizes up to $N=372$. The maximum frequency $ω_{\rm max}$ increases with $N^{3/4}$, which is rationalized by studying the lattice dynamics of a two-dimensional triangular lattice. The $N$-dependence of $ω_{\rm max}$ identifies magic numbers of $N=12, 32, 72, 132, 192, 212, 272, 282$, and 372, reflecting both a strong degeneracy of one-particle energies and an icosahedral structure that the $N$ charges form. $N=122$ is not identified as a magic number for $ω_{\rm max}$ because the former condition is not satisfied. The magic number concept can hold even when an average of high frequencies is considered. The maximum frequency mode at the magic numbers has no anomalously large oscillation amplitude (i.e., not a defect mode).
