description: We study broadcast in multiple access channels in dynamic adversarial settings. There is an unbounded supply of anonymous stations attached to a synchronous channel. There is an adversary who injects packets into stations to be broadcast on the channel. The adversary is restricted by injection rate, burstiness, and by how many passive stations can be simultaneously activated by providing them with packets. We consider deterministic distributed broadcast algorithms, which are further categorized by their properties. We investigate for which injection rates can algorithms attain bounded packet latency, when adversaries are restricted to be able to activate at most one station per round. The rates of algorithms we present make the increasing sequence consisting of $\frac{1}{3}$, $\frac{3}{8}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$, reflecting the additional features of algorithms. We show that injection rate $\frac{3}{4}$ cannot be handled with bounded packet latency.

description: We present a rigorous finite element method to calculate circular dichroism (CD) in various systems consisting of nanostructures and oriented chiral molecules with electric quadrupole transitions. The interaction between oriented molecule materials, which are regarded as anisotropic chiral media, and metallic nanostructures has been investigated. Our results show that the plasmon-induced CD is sensitive to the orientations of the molecules. In many cases, the contribution of molecular electric quadrupole transitions to the total CD signal can play a key role. More interesting, we have demonstrated that both the quadrupole- and dipole-based CD signals can be improved greatly by matching the phases for the electromagnetic fields and their gradients at different regions around the nanostructures, which are occupied by the oriented chiral molecules. Different regions might produce CD of opposite sign. When integrating over regions with only one side of the proposed nanostructure, we find that the CD-peak may be nearly hundreds-fold over the case of integrating both sides. We believe that these findings would be helpful for realizing ultrasensitive probing of chiral information for oriented molecules by plasmon-based nanotechnology.

description: Personally controlled air movement can maintain or enhance thermal comfort in warm environments and reduce energy consumption. Unlike controlling a personal fan, using a system of fans for multiple occupants is difficult as it is hard to find an appropriate fan speed setting that maximizes occupants' satisfaction. Since limited work has been carried out on this issue, in this paper, a novel cooperative control approach for a system of fans is proposed to provide optimized air movement for multiple occupants. This is the first time that a system of fans is controlled cooperatively in the research of built environment. The proposed approach predicts airflow in a cost-effective manner by calibrating the fans in the real environment. The operation of the fans is optimized by minimizing the worst-case deviation between the actual air speed and the desired air speed, which can be determined based on either the PMV – SET model or the occupants' feedback. This minimax-error problem is formulated as an equivalent linear programming problem which can be solved using standard methods. The proposed approach was tested in two different indoor scenarios respectively by 1) measuring air speed directly in a business conference room and 2) involving human subject surveys in a university classroom. In the first experiment, the measured air speeds after optimization are closer to the target values at all tested temperature levels (26°C, 27.5°C, and 29°C) indicating improved thermal comfort. In the second experiment, only 62% of the occupants (totally 34) are satisfied with slightly increased room temperature (around 26.5°C) before optimization, while this number increased to 94% after optimization.

description: We observe electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in Rb vapor at various optical intensities, starting from below saturation to several times the saturation intensity. The observed Lorentzian width of the EIT signal is very small. Solving the time dependant density matrix equation of motion with a phenomenological decay constant, we find an expression suitable in explaining the EIT signal. In this experimental observation and theoretical analysis intensity of EIT signal and its Lorentzian width increases with Rabi frequency of optical field.

description: To identify the robust settings of the control factors, it is very important to understand how they interact with the noise factors. In this article, we propose space-filling designs for computer experiments that are more capable of accurately estimating the control-by-noise interactions. Moreover, the existing space-filling designs focus on uniformly distributing the points in the design space, which are not suitable for noise factors because they usually follow non-uniform distributions such as normal distribution. This would suggest placing more points in the regions with high probability mass. However, noise factors also tend to have a smooth relationship with the response and therefore, placing more points towards the tails of the distribution is also useful for accurately estimating the relationship. These two opposing effects make the experimental design methodology a challenging problem. We propose optimal and computationally efficient solutions to this problem and demonstrate their advantages using simulated examples and a real industry example involving a manufacturing packing line.

description: Entanglement entropy for spatial subregions is difficult to define in string theory because of the extended nature of strings. Here we propose a definition for Bosonic open strings using the framework of string field theory. The key difference (compared to ordinary quantum field theory) is that the subregion is chosen inside a Cauchy surface in the "space of open string configurations". We first present a simple calculation of this entanglement entropy in free light-cone string field theory, ignoring subtleties related to the factorization of the Hilbert space. We reproduce the answer expected from an effective field theory point of view, namely a sum over the one-loop entanglement entropies corresponding to all the particle-excitations of the string, and further show that the full string theory regulates the ultraviolet divergences in the entanglement entropy. We then revisit the question of factorization of the Hilbert space by analyzing the covariant phase-space associated with a subregion in Witten's covariant string field theory. We show that the pure gauge (i.e., BRST exact) modes in the string field become dynamical at the entanglement cut. Thus, a proper definition of the entropy must involve an extended Hilbert space, with new stringy edge modes localized at the entanglement cut.

description: The adoption of the Dolev-Yao model, an abstraction of security protocols that supports symbolic reasoning, is responsible for many successes in protocol analysis. In particular, it has enabled using logic effectively to reason about protocols. One recent framework for expressing the basic assumptions of the Dolev-Yao model is given by strand spaces, certain directed graphs whose structure reflects causal interactions among protocol participants. We represent strand constructions as relatively simple formulas in first-order linear logic, a refinement of traditional logic known for an intrinsic and natural accounting of process states, events, and resources. The proposed encoding is shown to be sound and complete. Interestingly, this encoding differs from the multiset rewriting definition of the Dolev-Yao model, which is also based on linear logic. This raises the possibility that the multiset rewriting framework may differ from strand spaces in some subtle way, although the two settings are known to agree on the basic secrecy property.

description: Now-a-days, a lot of research is being carried out in the development of USVs (Unmanned surface vehicles), UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) etc. Now in case of USVs generally, we have seen that wireless controlled vehicles use RF circuits which suffer from many drawbacks such as limited working range, limited frequency range and limited control. Moreover shooting infrared outdoors on a bright sunny day is often problematic, since sunlight can interfere with the infrared signal. Use of a GSM network (in the form of a mobile phone, a cordless phone) for robotic control can overcome these limitations. It provides the advantages of robust control, working range as large as the coverage area of the service provider in comparison with that of an IR system, no interference with other controllers. This paper presents a Global System for Mobile Telecommunication (GSM) network based system which can be used to remotely send streams of 4 bit data for control of USVs. Furthermore, this paper describes the usage of the Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) function of the phone, and builds a microcontroller based circuit to control the vehicle to demonstrate wireless data communication. Practical result obtained showed an appreciable degree of accuracy of the system and friendliness through the use of a microcontroller.

description: We report here chiroptical amplification effect occurring in the hybrid systems consisting of chiral molecules and Si nanostructures. Under resonant excitation of circularly polarized light, the hybrid systems show strong CD induction signals at optical frequency, which arise from both the electric and magnetic responses of the Si nanostructures. More interestingly, the induced CD signals from Si-based dielectric nanoantennas are always larger than that from Au-based plasmonic counterparts. The related physical origin was disclosed. Furthermore, compared to the Au-based high-loss plasmonic nanoantenas, Si-based low-loss structures would generate negligible photothermal effect, which makes Si nanoantennas become an optimized candidate to amplify molecular CD signals with ultralow thermal damages. Our findings may provide a guideline for the design of novel chiral nanosensors for applications in the fields of biomedicine and pharmaceutics.

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Waveform tables are an important tool for synthesizing sound, but they introduce error which results in noise. Error is affected by the spectrum of the signal stored in the table. Error is reduced by increasing the table size and/or by increasing the quality of interpolation. Both of these also affect the signal computation cost. Table sizes required for a given signal-to-noise ratio are computed for different interpolation methods and spectral rolloffs. Execution times are then evaluated. Non-interpolated oscillators perform the best, but only if the storage and computation costs of the tables are not an issue. This and other tradeoffs are discussed.

description: Early detection of neurodevelopmental delay is crucial for intervention and treatment strategies. We analysed associations between newborn DNA methylation (DNAm), neonatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) neuroimaging data, and neurodevelopment. Neurodevelopment was assessed in 161 children from the South African Drakenstein Child Health Study at 2 years of age using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development III. We performed an epigenome-wide association study of neurodevelopmental delay using DNAm from cord blood. Subsequently, we analysed if associations between DNAm and neurodevelopmental delay were mediated by altered neonatal brain volumes (subset of 51 children). Differential DNAm at SPTBN4 (cg26971411, Δbeta = −0.024, p-value = 3.28 × 10−08), and two intergenic regions (chromosome 11: cg00490349, Δbeta = −0.036, p-value = 3.02 × 10−08; chromosome 17: cg15660740, Δbeta = −0.078, p-value = 6.49 × 10−08) were significantly associated with severe neurodevelopmental delay. While these associations were not mediated by neonatal brain volume, neonatal caudate volumes were independently associated with neurodevelopmental delay, particularly in language (Δcaudate volume = 165.30 mm3, p = 0.0443) and motor (Δcaudate volume = 365.36 mm3, p-value = 0.0082) domains. Differential DNAm from cord blood and increased neonatal caudate volumes were independently associated with severe neurodevelopmental delay at 2 years of age. These findings suggest that neurobiological signals for severe developmental delay may be detectable in very early life.
Kicked-Harper model vs On-Resonance Double Kicked Rotor Model: From Spectral Difference to Topological Equivalence

description: Recent studies have established that, in addition to the well-known kicked Harper model (KHM), an on-resonance double kicked rotor model (ORDKR) also has Hofstadter's butterfly Floquet spectrum, with strong resemblance to the standard Hofstadter's spectrum that is a paradigm in studies of the integer quantum Hall effect. Earlier it was shown that the quasi-energy spectra of these two dynamical models (i) can exactly overlap with each other if an effective Planck constant takes irrational multiples of 2*pi and (ii) will be different if the same parameter takes rational multiples of 2*pi. This work makes some detailed comparisons between these two models, with an effective Planck constant given by 2*pi M/N, where M and N are coprime and odd integers. It is found that the ORDKR spectrum (with two periodic kicking sequences having the same kick strength) has one flat band and $N-1$ non-flat bands whose largest width decays in power law as K to the power of N+2, where K is a kicking strength parameter. The existence of a flat band is strictly proven and the power law scaling, numerically checked for a number of cases, is also analytically proven for a three-band case. By contrast, the KHM does not have any flat band and its band width scales linearly with K. This is shown to result in dramatic differences in dynamical behavior, such as transient (but extremely long) dynamical localization in ORDKR, which is absent in KHM. Finally, we show that despite these differences, there exist simple extensions of KHM and ORDKR (upon introducing an additional periodic phase parameter) such that the resulting extended KHM and ORDKR are actually topologically equivalent, i.e., they yield exactly the same Floquet-band Chern numbers and display topological phase transitions at the same kick strengths. A theoretical derivation of this topological equivalence is provided.

description: Recently, there is a great interest in studying ultrasensitive detection and characterization of biomolecules using plasmonic particles, because they are of considerable importance in biomedical science and pharmaceutics. So far, all the theories on plasmoninduced circular dichroism (CD) are based on the dipole approximation, the electric quadrupolar contribution is generally considered to be relatively small and neglected. Here we demonstrate that the electric quadrupolar contribution not only cannot be ignored, but also plays a key role in many cases. Particularly, for the chiral medium that possesses preferential molecular orientations and is located at the hotspot of plasmonic nanostructures, the plasmonic CD strength contributed by molecular electric quadrupoles (EQ) can be two orders of magnitude higher than that contributed by molecular electric/magnetic dipoles. Unlike the case of dipole approximation, molecular EQ associated plasmonic CD activity appears mainly at the plasmonic resonance absorptions that facilitate the optically enhanced near-field with steep electric filed gradients, and is correlated with the boosted emission rate of a molecular EQ. Based on such physical understandings, we can design nanostructures to realize giant chiroptical effect using the EQ contribution according to the requirements,2 which provide a new strategy for ultrasensitive detection and quantification of molecular chirality.

description: We employ a multiscale approach to model the translocation of biopolymers through nanometer size pores. Our computational scheme combines microscopic Molecular Dynamics (MD) with a mesoscopic Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method for the solvent dynamics, explicitly taking into account the interactions of the molecule with the surrounding fluid. We describe an efficient parallel implementation of the method which exhibits excellent scalability on the Blue Gene platform. We investigate both dynamical and statistical aspects of the translocation process by simulating polymers of various initial configurations and lengths. For a representative molecule size, we explore the effects of important parameters that enter in the simulation, paying particular attention to the strength of the molecule-solvent coupling and of the external electric field which drives the translocation process. Finally, we explore the connection between the generic polymers modeled in the simulation and DNA, for which interesting recent experimental results are available.

description: A gain graph is a graph whose edges are orientably labelled from a group. A weighted gain graph is a gain graph with vertex weights from an abelian semigroup, where the gain group is lattice ordered and acts on the weight semigroup. For weighted gain graphs we establish basic properties and we present general dichromatic and forest-expansion polynomials that are Tutte invariants (they satisfy Tutte's deletion-contraction and multiplicative identities). Our dichromatic polynomial includes the classical graph one by Tutte, Zaslavsky's two for gain graphs, Noble and Welsh's for graphs with positive integer weights, and that of rooted integral gain graphs by Forge and Zaslavsky. It is not a universal Tutte invariant of weighted gain graphs; that remains to be found. An evaluation of one example of our polynomial counts proper list colorations of the gain graph from a color set with a gain-group action. When the gain group is Z^d, the lists are order ideals in the integer lattice Z^d, and there are specified upper bounds on the colors, then there is a formula for the number of bounded proper colorations that is a piecewise polynomial function of the upper bounds, of degree nd where n is the order of the graph. This example leads to graph-theoretical formulas for the number of integer lattice points in an orthotope but outside a finite number of affinographic hyperplanes, and for the number of n x d integral matrices that lie between two specified matrices but not in any of certain subspaces defined by simple row equations.

description: An analytical theory for the surface-enhanced Raman optical activity (SEROA) with the magnetic response of the substrate particle has been presented. We have demonstrated that the SEROA signal is proportional to the magnetic polarizability of the substrate particle, which can be significantly enhanced due to the existence of the magnetic response. At the same time, a large circular intensity difference (CID) for the SEROA can also be achieved in the presence of the magnetic response. Taking Si nanoparticles as examples, we have found that the CID enhanced by a Si nanoparticle is 10 times larger than that of Au. Furthermore, when the molecule is located in the hotspot of a Si dimer, CID can be 60 times larger. The phenomena originate from large magnetic fields concentrated near the nanoparticle and boosted magnetic dipole emission of the molecule. The symmetric breaking of the electric fields caused by the magnetic dipole response of the nanoparticle also plays an important role. Our findings provide a new way to tailor theRaman optical activity by designing metamaterials with the strong magnetic response.

description: The fine root system of trees can be divided into orders that reflect the comparative positions within the root system (the 1st order being the most distal) and the functional roles of fine roots that allow adaption to different environments. The intraspecific variation of fine root traits with the roots if different orders at regional scale has rarely been studied. We investigated the morphological and anatomical traits of the first five order fine roots of Pinus koraiensis at four different sites along latitudinal gradients in temperature and precipitation. The results showed that as the root order increased, the function of fine roots changed from being mainly responsible for absorption to mainly responsible for transportation. The effect of latitude on fine root traits was dependent on root order. The adaptation strategies for fine roots at different latitudes were regulated by environmental combinations and there were significant trade-offs between absorptive and transport roots at regional scale. The results emphasize the variation and cooperation of the fine root traits of P. koraiensis with the root order at different latitudes.

description: The determination of the relative position and pose of every robot in a modular robotic ensemble is a necessary preliminary step for most modular robotic tasks. Localization is particularly important when the modules make local noisy observations and are not significantly constrained by interrobot latches. In this paper, we propose a robust hierarchical approach to the internal localization problem that uses normalized cut to identify subproblems with small localization error. A key component of our algorithm is a simple method to reduce the cost of normalized cut computations. The result is a robust algorithm that scales to large, non-homogeneous ensembles. We evaluate our algorithm in simulation on ensembles of up to 10,000 modules.
The Generalized Asymptotic Equipartition Property: Necessary and Sufficient Conditions

description: Suppose a string $X_1^n=(X_1,X_2,...,X_n)$ generated by a memoryless source $(X_n)_{n\geq 1}$ with distribution $P$ is to be compressed with distortion no greater than $D\geq 0$, using a memoryless random codebook with distribution $Q$. The compression performance is determined by the ``generalized asymptotic equipartition property'' (AEP), which states that the probability of finding a $D$-close match between $X_1^n$ and any given codeword $Y_1^n$, is approximately $2^{-n R(P,Q,D)}$, where the rate function $R(P,Q,D)$ can be expressed as an infimum of relative entropies. The main purpose here is to remove various restrictive assumptions on the validity of this result that have appeared in the recent literature. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the generalized AEP are provided in the general setting of abstract alphabets and unbounded distortion measures. All possible distortion levels $D\geq 0$ are considered; the source $(X_n)_{n\geq 1}$ can be stationary and ergodic; and the codebook distribution can have memory. Moreover, the behavior of the matching probability is precisely characterized, even when the generalized AEP is not valid. Natural characterizations of the rate function $R(P,Q,D)$ are established under equally general conditions.

description: Superconductors and semiconductors are crucial platforms in the field of quantum computing. They can be combined to hybrids, bringing together physical properties that enable the discovery of new emergent phenomena and provide novel strategies for quantum control. The involved semiconductor materials, however, suffer from disorder, hyperfine interactions or lack of planar technology. Here we realise an approach that overcomes these issues altogether and integrate gate-defined quantum dots and superconductivity into a material system with strong spin-orbit coupling. In our germanium heterostructures, heavy holes with mobilities exceeding 500,000 cm$^2$/Vs are confined in shallow quantum wells that are directly contacted by annealed aluminium leads. We demonstrate gate-tunable superconductivity and find a characteristic voltage $I_cR_n$ that exceeds 10 $μ$V. Germanium therefore has great promise for fast and coherent quantum hardware and, being compatible with standard manufacturing, could become a leading material in the quantum revolution.

description: The present von Neumann computing paradigm involves a significant amount of information transfer between a central processing unit (CPU) and memory, with concomitant limitations in the actual execution speed. However, it has been recently argued that a different form of computation, dubbed memcomputing [Nature Physics, 9, 200-202 (2013)] and inspired by the operation of our brain, can resolve the intrinsic limitations of present day architectures by allowing for computing and storing of information on the same physical platform. Here we show a simple and practical realization of memcomputing that utilizes easy-to-build memcapacitive systems. We name this architecture Dynamic Computing Random Access Memory (DCRAM). We show that DCRAM provides massively-parallel and polymorphic digital logic, namely it allows for different logic operations with the same architecture, by varying only the control signals. In addition, by taking into account realistic parameters, its energy expenditures can be as low as a few fJ per operation. DCRAM is fully compatible with CMOS technology, can be realized with current fabrication facilities, and therefore can really serve as an alternative to the present computing technology.

description: For the one-stage third-order gas-kinetic scheme (GKS), success applications have been achieved for the three-dimensional compressible flow computations [33]. The high-order accuracy of the scheme is obtained directly by integrating a multidimensional time-accurate gas distribution function over the cell interface within a time step without implementing Gaussian quadrature points and Runge-Kutta time-stepping technique. However, for the further increasing the order of the scheme, such as the fourth-order one, the formulation becomes very complicated for the multidimensional flow. Recently, a two-stage fourth-order GKS with high efficiency has been constructed for two-dimensional inviscid and viscous flow computations [22,32], and the scheme uses the time accurate flux function and its time derivatives. In this paper, a fourth-order GKS is developed for the threedimensional flows under the two-stage framework. Based on the three-dimensional WENO reconstruction and flux evaluation at Gaussian quadrature points on a cell interface, the high-order accuracy in space is achieved first. Then, the two-stage time stepping method provides the high accuracy in time. In comparison with the formal third-order GKS [33], the current fourth-order method not only improves the accuracy of the scheme, but also reduces the complexity of the gas-kinetic solver greatly. More importantly, the fourth-order GKS has the same robustness as the second-order shock capturing scheme. This scheme is applied to both inviscid and viscous, and low and high speed flow computations. Numerical results validate the outstanding reliability and applicability of the scheme for three-dimensional flows, such as turbulent one.

description: Intersectoral dynamic models with power-law memory are proposed. The equations of open and closed intersectoral models, in which the memory effects are described by the Caputo derivatives of non-integer orders, are derived. We suggest solutions of these equations, which have the form of linear combinations of the Mittag-Leffler functions and which are characterized by different effective growth rates. Examples of intersectoral dynamics with power-law memory are suggested for two sectoral cases. We formulate two principles of intersectoral dynamics with memory: the principle of changing of technological growth rates and the principle of domination change. It has been shown that in the input-output economic dynamics the effects of fading memory can change the economic growth rate and dominant behavior of economic sectors.

description: A large class of multimedia programs for embedded systems manipulate data represented as dense matrices. In this paper we revisit the classical optimization of scalar replacement of array elements and pointer accesses; this optimization allocates array elements to registers, reducing memory traffic. We generalize the state-of-the-art algorithm, by Carr and Kennedy [CK94], improving it to handle simultaneously both conditional control-flow and inter-iteration data reuse. Our algorithm operates within the same assumptions of the classical one (perfect dependence information), and has the same limitations (increased register pressure). It is, however, optimal in the sense that within each code region where scalar promotion is applied, given sufficient registers, each memory location is read/written at most once.

description: The Mock LISA Data Challenges are a program to demonstrate LISA data-analysis capabilities and to encourage their development. Each round of challenges consists of several data sets containing simulated instrument noise and gravitational-wave sources of undisclosed parameters. Participants are asked to analyze the data sets and report the maximum information about source parameters. The challenges are being released in rounds of increasing complexity and realism: in this proceeding we present the results of Challenge 2, issued in January 2007, which successfully demonstrated the recovery of signals from supermassive black-hole binaries, from ~20,000 overlapping Galactic white-dwarf binaries, and from the extreme-mass-ratio inspirals of compact objects into central galactic black holes.

Subjects: Soil Science

description: In order to study salinity stress on four vegetable crops including radish (Raphanus sativus L.), cabbage (Brassica oleracea capitata L.), mustard (Brassica juncea) and water spinach (Ipomoea aquatica), a laboratory experiment as completely randomized design was conducted with three replications in the Department of Soil Science, University of Chittagong, Bangladesh. To create salinity stress, sodium chloride (NaCl) at five levels of 0 (as control), 2, 4, 8 and 16 dS m were used. In the present study, indices such as germination percentage, germination rate, reduction of germination percentage, seed viability index, seedling and root length, seedling and root fresh weight of four vegetable crops were measured. Statistical results revealed that the effect of salt levels on investigated parameters was significant (P< 0.01)). Means comparison for these parameters showed that the application of 8 and 16 dS m salinity resulted in the loss of germination percentage, germination rate, seed viability index, seedling and root length, seedling and root fresh weight of four vegetable crops, as compared to control treatment (0 ds m salinity). In total, it can be concluded that salinity stress significantly decreased germination and growth parameters of seedlings of four vegetable crops.

description: This paper is a natural continuation of the study of skew power series rings A initiated in [P. Schneider and O. Venjakob, On the codimension of modules over skew power series rings with applications to Iwasawa algebras, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 204 (2005), 349 - 367.]. We construct skew Laurent series rings B and show the existence of some canonical Ore sets S for the skew power series rings A such that a certain completion of the localisation A_S is isomorphic to B. This is applied to certain Iwasawa algebras. Finally we introduce subrings of overconvergent skew Laurent series rings.
