description: Matter with an equation of state $p=-ρ/3$ may arise in certain scalar field theories, and the energy density of this matter decreases as $a^{-2}$ with the scale factor $a$ of the Universe. In this case, the Universe could be closed but still have a nonrelativistic-matter density $Ω_0<1$. Furthermore, the cosmic microwave background could come from a causally-connected region at the other side of the Universe. This model is currently viable and might be tested by a host of forthcoming observations.

Life in the wake of a 200 year flood event at the Fording Rivter Operations, June 1995
Creators: name: Berdusco, Roger Joseph
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: On June 6, 1995, a major flood event estimated to be greater than a Q200 flow, devastated the Elk Valley area of Southeastern British Columbia. Major highways, bridges and rail lines were impacted with damage estimates in the tens of millions. Fording Coal Limited sustained nearly 7 million dollars in damages to rail Unes, roads, bridges, settling ponds and other infrastructure. This paper summarizes the events leading up to the flood, describes the damages caused and remedial actions, and discusses what can be learned for the future.

description: In a recent Letter, Hunt and Ott argued that SHORT-period unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) would be the invariant sets associated with a chaotic attractor that are most likely to optimize the time average of some smooth scalar performance function. In this Comment, we show that their conclusion does not hold generally and that optimal time averages may specifically require long-period UPOs. This situation can arise when long-period UPOs are able to spend substantial amounts of time in a region of phase space that is close to large values of the performance function.

description: Billions of Dollars Allocated to Women’s Projects in Afghanistan: Why Their Impact Has Been Limited?

Women have remained at the forefront of development after the Taliban regime in Afghanistan due to the involvement of international donors, such as UN agencies, independent organizations, and government aid in order to stabilize the country and promote a more prosperous society. Gender equality and female empowerment emerged in different initiatives or programs both at the policy level and in practice. Now, more than a decade has passed, and Afghan women still struggle to have basic rights in most provinces. With billions of dollars dedicated to women-related programs, Afghan women still question the efficiency of these programs, and question the real impact of these initiatives. Hence, this research aims to provide answers to the question, “Inspite of massive international aid for women in Afghanistan, how has the situation of women not improved as much as expected, yet the same policies and mechanisms are maintained?” When considering Afghanistan’s struggle in an ongoing conflict, a qualitative research method is used to answer the research question. I have interviewed current donor employees, researchers, and NGO partners who have implemented projects that advance and support the rights, health, and lives of women to examine the theoretical framework of neoliberalism in development, the structure of NGOs in developing countries, and the lack of accountability toward beneficiaries. The data from these interviews demonstrate women-related projects’ implementation that did not meet its goals and remained insufficient based on project designs, current policies in place, and less attention toward female empowerment in the country. This research concludes that policies are hard to be changed, but donors continue designing and implementing their programs without any need assessments and taking credits for recent achievements of Afghan women.

We further provide a lower bound for the number of possible N-infinity-operads for any finite cyclic group G.

Decay of charged scalar field around a black hole: quasinormal modes of R-N, R-N-AdS and dilaton black holes
Creators: name: Konoplya, R. A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It is well known that the charged scalar perturbations of the Reissner-Nordstrom metric will decay slower at very late times than the neutral ones, thereby dominating in the late time signal. We show that at the stage of quasinormal ringing, on the contrary, the neutral perturbations will decay slower for RN, RNAdS and dilaton black holes. The QN frequencies of the nearly extreme RN black hole have the same imaginary parts (damping times) for charged and neutral perturbations. An explanation of this fact is not clear but, possibly, is connected with the Choptuik scaling.

description: This study attempts to examine the effects of contract farming on rice growers’ productivity and profitability in terms of yield, cost, selling price and return in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta using different propensity-score matching techniques. By using cross-sectional data collected from 166 rice farmers located in the central Delta, the findings reveal that participation in a contract scheme has a robust positive significant effect on rice farmers’ output price and return but has no impact on yield and variable cost. The results of this study suggest that contract farming led by export enterprise enables rice farmers to raise their output price and profitability, which may magnify their household income.

Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)

description: In this paper, we study the spectra of regular hypergraphs following the definitions from Feng and Li (1996). Our main result is an analog of Alon's conjecture for the spectral gap of the random regular hypergraphs. We then relate the second eigenvalues to both its expansion property and the mixing rate of the non-backtracking random walk on regular hypergraphs. We also prove the spectral gap for the non-backtracking operator of a random regular hypergraph introduced in Angelini et al. (2015). Finally, we obtain the convergence of the empirical spectral distribution (ESD) for random regular hypergraphs in different regimes. Under certain conditions, we can show a local law for the ESD.

Algebraic approximations to bifurcation curves of limit cycles for the Lienard equation

Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)

description: In this paper, we study the bifurcation of limit cycles in Lienard systems of the form dot(x)=y-F(x), dot(y)=-x, where F(x) is an odd polynomial that contains, in general, several free parameters. By using a method introduced in a previous paper, we obtain a sequence of algebraic approximations to the bifurcation sets, in the parameter space. Each algebraic approximation represents an exact lower bound to the bifurcation set. This sequence seems to converge to the exact bifurcation set of the system. The method is non perturbative. It is not necessary to have a small or a large parameter in order to obtain these results.

description: Phytochemical investigation of the roots of Saposhnikovia divaricata (Turcz.) Schischk resulted in the isolation of twelve coumarin derivatives including one new 3,4-dihydroisocoumarin (1) and eleven known 3,4-unsubstituted coumarins (2–12). Structural elucidation of compounds 1–12 was established by 1D and 2D NMR spectra referring to the literature, together with high-resolution mass spectrometric analysis. LPS-induced RAW264.7 inflammatory cell model was used to determine the potential antiinflammation activity of all the isolated compounds in vitro. The results showed that compound 3 significantly inhibited the production of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO in macrophages (IC50 = 4.54 ± 1.71 μM), more active than the positive control (L-NMMA).
Zero-sum subsequences in bounded-sum $\{-r,s\}$-sequences

Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)

description: We study the problem of finding zero-sum blocks in bounded-sum sequences, which was introduced by Caro, Hansberg, and Montejano. Caro et al. determine the minimum $\{-1,1\}$-sequence length for when there exist $k$ consecutive terms that sum to zero. We determine the corresponding minimum sequence length when the set $\{-1,1\}$ is replaced by $\{-r,s\}$ for arbitrary positive integers $r$ and $s.$ This confirms a conjecture of theirs. We also construct $\{-1,1\}$-sequences of length quadratic in $k$ that avoid $k$ terms indexed by an arithmetic progression that sum to zero. This solves a second conjecture of theirs in the case of $\{-1,1\}$-sequences on zero-sum arithmetic subsequences. Finally, we give a superlinear lower bound on the minimum sequence length to find a zero-sum arithmetic progression for general $\{-r,s\}$-sequences.

description: We present a theory of standing spin wave (SSW) in a monoaxial chiral helimagnet. Motivated by experimental findings on the magnetic field-dependence of the resonance frequency in thin films of Cr${}$Nb$_{3} $S${}_{6}$[Goncalves et al., Phys. Rev. B95, 104415 (2017)], we examine the SSW over a chiral soliton lattice (CSL) excited by an ac magnetic field applied parallel and perpendicular to the chiral axis. For this purpose, we generalize Kittel-Pincus theories of the SSW in ferromagnetic thin films to the case of non-collinear helimagnet with the surface end spins which are softly pinned by an anisotropy field. Consequently, we found there appear two types of modes. One is a Pincus mode which is composed of a long-period Bloch wave and a short-period ripple originated from the periodic structure of the CSL. Another is a short-period Kittel ripple excited by space-periodic perturbation which exists only in the case where the ac field is applied perpendicular the chiral axis. We demonstrate that the existence of the Pincus mode and the Kittel ripple is consistent with experimentally found double resonance profile.

Intersecting Nations, Diverging Discourses: The Fraught Encounter of Chinese and Tibetan Literatures in the Modern Era

Subjects: Tibetan literature

description: This is a two-pronged study of how the Chinese and Tibetan literary traditions have become intertwined in the modern era. Setting out from the contention that the study of minority literatures in China must be fundamentally multilingual in its approach, this dissertation investigates how Tibetans were written into Chinese literature, and how Tibetans themselves adopted and adapted Chinese literary discourses to their own ends. It begins with Lu Xun and the formative literary conceptions of nation in the late Qing and Republican periods – a time when the Tibetan subject was fundamentally absent from modern Chinese literature – and then moves to the 1980s, when Tibet and Tibetans belatedly, and contentiously, became valid subject matter for Han Chinese writers. The second aspect of the project situates modern Tibetan-language literature, which arose from the 1980s onwards, within the literary and intellectual context of modern China. I read Döndrup Gyel, modern Tibetan literature’s “father figure,” as working within unmistakably Lu Xun-ian paradigms, I consider the contradictions that arose when Tsering Döndrup’s short story “Ralo” was interpreted as a Tibetan equivalent of “The True Story of Ah Q,” and I analyze the rise of a “Tibetan May Fourth Movement” in the 2000s, which I argue presented a selective reading of modern China’s intellectual history. Throughout, I focus on the intersections and divergences at play and examine the ways in which these texts navigate complex and conflicting discourses of nationalism, statism, and colonialism. The conclusions of this research point us toward significant theoretical reconceptualizations of literary practices in the People’s Republic of China, which now include not only a vast body of Chinese-language writing on minority peoples, but also numerous minority-language literatures and distinct “national” literary traditions.
Late-time particle creation from gravitational collapse to an extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black hole

description: We investigate the late time behavior of particle creation from an extremal Reissner-Nordstrom (RN) black hole formed by gravitational collapse. We calculate explicitly the particle flux associated with a massless scalar field at late times after the collapse. Our result shows that the expected number of particles in any wave packet spontaneously created from the ``in'' vacuum state approaches zero faster than any inverse power of time. This result confirms the traditional belief that extremal black holes do not emit particles. We also calculate the expectation value of the stress energy tensor in a 1+1 RN black hole and show that it also drops to zero at late times. Some comments on previous work by other authors are provided.

description: Let $A$ and $B$ be local operators in Hamiltonian quantum systems with $N $ degrees of freedom and finite-dimensional Hilbert space. We prove that the commutator norm $\lVert [A(t),B]\rVert$ is upper bounded by a topological combinatorial problem: counting irreducible weighted paths between two points on the Hamiltonian's factor graph. Our bounds sharpen existing Lieb-Robinson bounds by removing extraneous growth. In quantum systems drawn from zero-mean random ensembles with few-body interactions, we prove stronger bounds on the ensemble-averaged out-of-time-ordered correlator $\mathbb{E}\left[ \lVert [A(t),B]\rVert_F^2\right]$. In such quantum systems on Erdös-Rényi factor graphs, we prove that the scrambling time $t_{\mathrm{s}}$, at which $\lvert [A(t),B]\rVert_F=\mathrmΘ(1)$, is almost surely $t_{\mathrm{s}}=\mathrmΩ(\sqrt{\log N})$; we further prove $t_{\mathrm{s}}=\mathrmΩ(\log N) $ to high order in perturbation theory in $1/N$. We constrain infinite temperature quantum chaos in the $q$-local Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model at any order in $1/N$; at leading order, our upper bound on the Lyapunov exponent is within a factor of 2 of the known result at any $q>2$. We also speculate on the implications of our theorems for conjectured holographic descriptions of quantum gravity.

Intersectionality: A Systematic Review and Application to Explore the Complexity of Teen Pregnancy Involvement
Creators: Hess, Leona E.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Social service

description: This three-paper dissertation investigates current applications of intersectionality in social work research and explores the utility of intersectionality in uncovering the complexity of teen pregnancy involvement. To illustrate the current methodological and theoretical applications of intersectionality in social work research, the first paper presents a systematic review of the literature. As shown in this paper, while intersectionality is underutilized as a theoretical concept in social work research, the potentialities of intersectionality to examine the complexity of social locations and identities is manifest. The second and third papers employ intersectional approaches to uncover the complexity of teen pregnancy involvement in New York City. The second paper examines quantitatively the interaction of gender, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation on teen pregnancy involvement among a representative sample (N=176,289) of New York City public high school students. Findings from this paper reveal new patterns of disparities in teen pregnancy involvement based on the interactive effects of gender, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation. The third paper captures qualitatively the interactions of social locations that contribute to perceptions about teen pregnancy among 24 sexual-minority female youth of color who participated in focus groups at a community-based organization in New York City. This paper examines the heteronormative assumptions underpinning teen pregnancy involvement and provides a different story about teen pregnancy "risk."

Adiabatic evolutions without a gap condition do not seem to have this feature in general. This is a known fact for eigenvalue crossing. We show that this is also the case for eigenvalues at the threshold of the continuous spectrum by considering the Friedrichs model.

description: We present results from direct numerical simulations of the Kraichnan model for passive scalar advection by a rapidly-varying random scaling velocity field for intermediate values of the velocity scaling exponent. These results are compared with the scaling exponents predicted for this model by Kraichnan. Further, we test the recently proposed fusion rules which govern the scaling properties of multi-point correlations, and present results on the linearity of the conditional statistics of the Laplacian operator on the scalar field.

description: Break Induced Replication (BIR), a mechanism by which cells heal one-ended double-strand breaks, involves the invasion of a broken strand of DNA into a homologous template, and the copying of tens to hundreds of kilobases from the site of invasion to the telomere using a migrating D-loop. Here we show that if BIR encounters an interstitial telomere sequence (ITS) placed in its path, BIR terminates at the ITS 12% of the time, with the formation of a new telomere at this location. We find that the ITS can be converted to a functional telomere by either direct addition of telomeric repeats by telomerase, or by homology-directed repair using natural telomeres. This termination and creation of a new telomere is promoted by Mph1 helicase, which is known to disassemble D-loops. We also show that other sequences that have the potential to form new telomeres, but lack the unique features of a perfect telomere sequence, do not terminate BIR at a significant frequency in wild-type cells. However, these sequences can cause chromosome truncations if BIR is made less processive by loss of Pol32 or Pif1. These findings together indicate that features of the ITS itself, such as secondary structures and telomeric protein binding, pose a challenge to BIR and increase the vulnerability of the D-loop to dissociation by Mph1, promoting telomere formation at the site.
Intervention in Civil Wars: Intervention and Consent

description: In modern international law, it is a near consensus that no state can use force against another - the main exceptions being self-defense and actions mandated by a U.N. Security Council resolution. However, one more potential exception exists: forcible intervention undertaken upon the invitation or consent of a government, seeking assistance in confronting armed opposition groups within its territory.  This dissertation seeks to analyze the consent-exception in a wide context, and attempting to delineate its limits - including, perhaps, cases in which government consent power is not only negated, but might be transferred to opposition groups.

description: This ethnographic project examines sexual communication and negotiation in the context of the political economy of migration. Using participant observation as well as in-depth and life history interviews and secondary sources, the research goals are to explicate the meanings and practices related to gender and sexuality among the transnational population of mid-life heterosexual Mexicans in New York; map ideologies and practices regarding family size and family planning, including histories of negotiation within the context of relationships and couples, embedded within processes of sexual socialization and historical-political-economic structures in the selected population; map experiences with accessing health care services, in the context of this community of low-wage, undocumented, uninsured workers; and explicate the relationships between gender, sexuality, reproduction, parenthood, and labor migration, within the political economy of Mexican migration to New York. The research population consists of Mexican-born women and men in Queens, New York City, ages twenty-two to forty-five. This project aims to contribute to our understanding of how culture changes through interactions between agents and structures; to contribute to an area of sexuality research that has received insufficient attention, which intersects the fields of gender, migration, demography, and health; to increase our understanding of sexual communication among mid-life cohabiting adult migrants; to identify gaps between service needs and utilization; and to offer suggestions on how to improve health programs and services for this emerging immigrant population.

description: We consider non-expanding shear free (NE-SF) null surface geometries embeddable as extremal Killing horizons to the second order in Einstein vacuum spacetimes. A NE-SF null surface geometry consists of a degenerate metric tensor and a consistent torsion free covariant derivative. We derive the constraints implied by the existence of an embedding. The first constraint is well known as the near horizon geometry equation. The second constraint we find is new. The constraints lead to a complete characterization of those NE-SF null geometries that are embeddable in the extremal Kerr spacetime. Our results are also valid for spacetimes with a cosmological constant.

description: The full causal Müller-Israel-Stewart (MIS) theory of dissipative processes in relativistic fluids is applied to a flat, homogeneous and isotropic universe with bulk viscosity. It is clarified in which sense the so called truncated version is a reasonable limiting case of the full theory. The possibility of bulk viscosity driven inflationary solutions of the full theory is discussed. As long as the particle number is conserved almost all these solutions exhibit an exponential increase of the temperature. Assuming that the bulk viscous pressure of the MIS theory may also be interpreted as an effective description for particle production processes, the thermodynamical behaviour of the Universe changes considerably. In the latter case the temperature increases at a lower rate or may remain constant during a hypothetical de Sitter stage, accompanied by a substantial growth of the comoving entropy.

Intimate Intersections: Exploring the Perspectives of Interracial Partners in Heterosexual Romantic Relationships

description: The purpose of the present study was to explore the endorsement of racial colorblind attitudes among partners in heterosexual interracial romantic relationships, as well as identify the potential effects of a colorblind ideology upon mental health and wellbeing. For interracial partners, race is simultaneously a fundamental part of their relationship with far-reaching implications, and also, simply put, one of many parts. Research attests that while some interracial partners proactively acknowledge race and initiate racial dialogue, others avoid or choose not to “see” race with their significant others (Killian, 2012; Steinbugler, 2012). From a counseling psychology framework, racial colorblindness, or the denial of the importance of race, minimizes the centrality of race and racism – when in fact race continues to hold the power to define social reality (Neville, Awad, Brooks, Flores, & Blumel, 2013). This study investigated the degree to which different interracial partners in heterosexual relationships report racial colorblindness or strategic colorblindness, and if such views impacted self-esteem and relationship satisfaction. Significant differences between partners of color and White partners in strategic colorblindness were indicated from independent-samples t-tests, and a series of one-way between-group analyses of variance found significant differences specifically between Asian and White partners. Multiple regression analyses found no significant associations between any type of colorblindness and relationship satisfaction and no significant associations between self-esteem or relationship esteem and strategic colorblindness. Additional post-hoc analyses that examined demographic characteristics of the sample found specific intersections of gender and race to be associated with strategic colorblindness. History of being in an interracial relationship and relationship length of time were also significantly associated with relationship satisfaction and colorblind racial attitudes, respectively. Limitations of the present study and directions for future research are discussed. Results from this study can be used to identify multiculturally considerate strategies for clinicians working with interracial partners, and bridge growing interracial scholarship with emerging research on racial colorblindness.

description: Quantum detector tomography is a fundamental technique for calibrating quantum devices and performing quantum engineering tasks. In this paper, a novel quantum detector tomography method is proposed. First, a series of different probe states are used to generate measurement data. Then, using constrained linear regression estimation, a stage-1 estimation of the detector is obtained. Finally, the positive semidefinite requirement is added to guarantee a physical stage-2 estimation. This Two-stage Estimation (TSE) method has computational complexity $O(nd^2M)$, where $n$ is the number of $d$-dimensional detector matrices and $M$ is the number of different probe states. An error upper bound is established, and optimization on the coherent probe states is investigated. We perform simulation and a quantum optical experiment to testify the effectiveness of the TSE method.
