On integrands and loop momentum in string and field theory
Creators: name: Tourkine, Piotr
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The notion of a unique integrand does not a priori makes sense in field theory: different Feynman diagrams have different loop momenta and there should be no reason to compare them. In string theory, however, a global integrand is natural and allows, for instance, to make explicit the separation between left and right-moving degrees of freedom. However, the significance of this integrand had not really been investigated so far. It is even more important in view of the recently discovered loop monodromies that are related to the duality between color and kinematics in gauge and gravity loop amplitudes. This paper intends to start filling this gap, by presenting a careful definition of the loop momentum in string theory, and describing precisely the resulting global integrand obtained in the field theory limit. We will then apply this technology to write down some monodromy relations at two and three loops, and make contact with the color/kinematics duality.

description: Point-contact tunnel junctions using a Au tip on sintered MgB2 pellets reveal a sharp superconducting energy gap that is confirmed by subsequent metallic Sharvin contacts made on the same sample. The peak in the tunneling conductance and the Sharvin contact conductance follow the BCS form, but the gap values of 4.3 meV are less than the weak-coupling BCS value of 5.9 meV for the bulk Tc of 39 K. The low value of Delta compared to the BCS value for the bulk Tc is possibly due to chemical reactions at the surface.

Rejuvenating democracy : age, knowledge, and the right to vote

description: At the core of democracy is a simple idea: one person, one vote. However, all democracies disenfranchise citizens below a certain age. What justifies this practice? The answer seems obvious: voting isn’t a children’s game. When citizens head to the ballots, a lot is at stake: who runs the government and what policies are implemented significantly affects the lives of many citizens. According to a widely held view, voting requires a certain competence that children lack. If we take this idea a little further, we may conclude that adult citizens ought to demonstrate a certain level of competence before receiving the right to vote, too. However, most contemporary political philosophers reject this “epistocratic” line of thought. Either for epistemic, moral, or pragmatic reasons, they endorse enfranchising every adult. This raises the central question of this dissertation: can we justify giving the right to vote to all and only citizens above a certain age? I argue that we cannot. To establish this claim, I assess three different voting schemes: Standard Democracy, which gives exactly one vote to all and only citizens above a certain age; Epistocratic Democracy, which gives more voting power to “politically knowledgeable” citizens; and Ageless Democracy, which gives all citizens, regardless of age, the right to cast exactly one vote in democratic procedures. First, I defend Standard Democracy against Epistocratic Democracy. This amounts to an argument that all citizens above a certain age should have equal voting rights. I then evaluate potential justifications for conceding these rights only to citizens above a certain age, and reject them. This amounts to a case for Ageless Democracy. Abandoning the voting age is both a theoretically consistent implication of rejecting Epistocratic Democracy and a practically desirable approach to reinvigorating democratic procedures.

description: We introduce a fabrication method for gate-all-around nanowire field-effect transistors. Single nanowires were aligned perpendicular to underlying bottom gates using a resist-trench alignment technique. Top gates were then defined aligned to the bottom gates to form gate-all-around structures. This approach overcomes significant limitations in minimal obtainable gate length and gate-length control in previous horizontal wrap-gated nanowire transistors that arise because the gate is defined by wet etching. In the method presented here gate-length control is limited by the resolution of the electron-beam-lithography process. We demonstrate the versatility of our approach by fabricating a device with an independent bottom gate, top gate, and gate-all-around structure as well as a device with three independent gate-all-around structures with 300 nm, 200 nm, and 150 nm gate length. Our method enables us to achieve sub-threshold swings as low as 38 mV/dec at 77 K for a 150 nm gate length.

description: A Spiking Neural Network (SNN) can be trained indirectly by first training an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with the conventional backpropagation algorithm, then converting it into an SNN. The conventional rate-coding method for SNNs uses the number of spikes to encode magnitude of an activation value, and may be computationally inefficient due to the large number of spikes. Temporal-coding is typically more efficient by leveraging the timing of spikes to encode information. In this paper, we present Logarithmic Temporal Coding (LTC), where the number of spikes used to encode an activation value grows logarithmically with the activation value; and the accompanying Exponentiate-and-Fire (EF) spiking neuron model, which only involves efficient bit-shift and addition operations. Moreover, we improve the training process of ANN to compensate for approximation errors due to LTC. Experimental results indicate that the resulting SNN achieves competitive performance at significantly lower computational cost than related work.

description: We develop a classification of \emph{minimally unbalanced} $3d~\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories. These gauge theories are important because the isometry group $G$ of their Coulomb branch contains a single factor, which is either a classical or an exceptional Lie group. Concurrently, this provides a classification of hyperkähler cones with isometry group $G$ which are obtainable by Coulomb branch constructions. HyperKähler cones such as Coulomb branches of $3d~\mathcal{N}=4$ quivers are indispensable tools for describing Higgs branches of different theories in various dimensions. In particular, they are used to describe Higgs branches of $5d~\mathcal{N}=1$ SQCD with gauge group $SU(N_c)$ and $6d~\mathcal N = (1,0)$ SQCD with gauge group $Sp(N_c)$ at the respective UV fixed points.

description: The essence of the gravitomagnetic clock effect is properly defined showing that its origin is in the topology of world lines with closed space projections. It is shown that, in weak field approximation and for a spherically symmetric central body, the loss of synchrony between two clocks counter-rotating along a circular geodesic is proportional to the angular momentum of the source of the gravitational field. Numerical estimates are presented for objects within the solar system. The less unfavorable situation is found around Jupiter.

description: While it has become common to perform automated translations on natural language, performing translations between different representations of mathematical formulae has thus far not been possible. We implemented the first translator for mathematical formulae based on recursive neural networks. We chose recursive neural networks because mathematical formulae inherently include a structural encoding. In our implementation, we developed new techniques and topologies for recursive tree-to-tree neural networks based on multi-variate multi-valued Long Short-Term Memory cells. We propose a novel approach for mini-batch training that utilizes clustering and tree traversal. We evaluate our translator and analyze the behavior of our proposed topologies and techniques based on a translation from generic LaTeX to the semantic LaTeX notation. We use the semantic LaTeX notation from the Digital Library for Mathematical Formulae and the Digital Repository for Mathematical Formulae at the National Institute for Standards and Technology. We find that a simple heuristics-based clustering algorithm outperforms the conventional clustering algorithms on the task of clustering binary trees of mathematical formulae with respect to their topology. Furthermore, we find a mask for the loss function, which can prevent the neural network from finding a local minimum of the loss function. Given our preliminary results, a complete translation from formula to formula is not yet possible. However, we achieved a prediction accuracy of 47.05% for predicting symbols at the correct position and an accuracy of 92.3% when ignoring the predicted position. Concluding, our work advances the field of recursive neural networks by improving the training speed and quality of training. In the future, we will work towards a complete translation allowing a machine-interpretation of LaTeX formulae.

Sacred sound: the thread of sound, language and reality in Hinduism
Creators: name: Chappelle, Pamela Ann
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: In several cosmologies around the world, creation came into being from the utterance of the Word. Speech as such reigns as the supreme power. This paper will seek to understand speech and sound in Hindu traditions that pursue to effect results on the human level – specifically various levels and categories of liberation and spiritual growth. Centering around the Sanskrit language, my analysis explores where these beliefs of speech and sound developed and persisted, as well as how they are unified and integrated into personal and cultural experiences. This paper traces vac (speech) as both self-revealing and a divine instrument in the release of prana (the fundamental energy of the universe). In practice, this energy of sound shapes the forms of mantras for use in spiritual enlightenment, self-realization and liberation (moksha). Because of the near inexhaustibility of Hindu philosophical and religious works many very interesting topics have sadly been omitted. Also not considered are Eastern and Western mysteries, plus topics such as the supernatural and magic, incantations and spells in ritual activity, coincidences, their results or the lack thereof. In establishing the connection between speech and prana, focus will be on the essence of the sound connection in terms of power and agency as it exists in, and as, a state of nature. This natural yet formula-like structure will be shown to inherently extend into the realms of the theological (divine; religious) and epistemically (knowledge; philosophical). And in raising such awareness, beliefs such as sacred speech and the eternity of the Word, one encounters insights to their divine manifestations which reveal knowledge and truth. That is their mystery. Background research will include the locus of whence our ancestors, and the ancient ones before them who wrote the sacred Hindu texts such as the Vedas, Upanisads and Bhagavad-Gita with their poetry and sage instructions, remain essential to culture and growth. Additional works include but not limited to subsequent centuries’ old historic as well as modern commentaries from the grammarians (phoneticians) and philosophers alike.

description: Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is a distinctive source of polyphenols as flavonoids and phenolic acids that has been described to display beneficial effects against urinary tract infections (UTIs), the second most common type of infections worldwide. UTIs can lead to significant morbidity, especially in healthy females due to high rates of recurrence and antibiotic resistance. Strategies and therapeutic alternatives to antibiotics for prophylaxis and treatment against UTIs are continuously being sought after. Different to cranberry, which have been widely recommended in traditional medicine for UTIs prophylaxis, probiotics have emerged as a new alternative to the use of antibiotics against these infections and are the subject of new research in this area. Besides uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), the most common bacteria causing uncomplicated UTIs, other etiological agents, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae or Gram-positive bacteria of Enterococcus and Staphylococcus genera, seem to be more widespread than previously appreciated. Considerable current effort is also devoted to the still-unraveled mechanisms that are behind the UTI-protective effects of cranberry, probiotics and their new combined formulations. All these current topics in the understanding of the protective effects of cranberry against UTIs are reviewed in this paper. Finally, pieces of evidence regarding treatment against UTIs with probiotics and their combinations with cranberry are too limited to draw any conclusions but they seem to indeed be a promising strategy for future treatments.

description: We study the Kaluza-Klein zero modes of massless bulk fields with various spins in the background of dilatonic and self-tuning flat domain walls. We find that the zero modes of all the massless bulk fields in such domain wall backgrounds are normalizable, unlike those in the background of the non-dilatonic domain wall with infinite extra space of Randall and Sundrum. In particular, gravity in the bulk of dilatonic domain walls is effectively compactified to the Einstein gravity with vanishing cosmological constant and nonzero gravitational constant in one lower dimensions for any values of dilaton coupling parameter, provided the warp factor is chosen to decrease on both sides of the domain wall, in which case the tension of the domain wall is positive. However, unexpectedly, for the self-tuning flat domain walls, the cosmological constant of the zero mode effective gravity action in one lower dimensions does not vanish, indicating the need for additional ingredient or modification necessary in cancellation of the unexpected cosmological constant in the graviton zero mode effective action.

description: The detection of GW170817, the first neutron star-neutron star merger observed by Advanced LIGO and Virgo, and its following analyses represent the first contributions of gravitational wave (GW) data to understanding dense matter. Parameterizing the high density section of the equation of state (EOS) of both neutron stars through spectral decomposition, and imposing a lower limit on the maximum mass value, led to an estimate of the stars' radii of $R_1 = 11.9_{- 1.4}^{+ 1.4}$ km and $R_2 = 11.9_{- 1.4}^{+ 1.4}$ km. These values do not, however, take into account any uncertainty owed to the choice of the crust low-density EOS, which was fixed to reproduce the SLy EOS model. We here re-analyze GW170817 data and establish that different crust models do not strongly impact the mass or tidal deformability of a neutron star: it is impossible to distinguish between low-density models with GW analysis. However, the crust does have an effect on the inferred radius. We predict the systematic error due to this effect using neutron star structure equations, and compare the prediction to results from full parameter estimation runs. For GW170817, this systematic error affects the radius estimate by 0.3 km, approximately $3\%$ of the NS radii.

description: We study a scheme of quantum simulator for two-dimensional xy-model Hamiltonian. Previously the quantum simulator for a coupled cavity array spin model has been explored, but the coupling strength is fixed by the system parameters. In the present scheme several cavity resonators can be coupled with each other simultaneously via an ancilla qubit. In the two-dimensional Kagome lattice of the resonators the hopping of resonator photonic modes gives rise to the tight-binding Hamiltonian which in turn can be transformed to the quantum xy-model Hamiltonian. We employ the transmon as an ancilla qubit to achieve in situ controllable xy-coupling strength.

description: Periocular refers to the facial region in the vicinity of the eye, including eyelids, lashes and eyebrows. While face and irises have been extensively studied, the periocular region has emerged as a promising trait for unconstrained biometrics, following demands for increased robustness of face or iris systems. With a surprisingly high discrimination ability, this region can be easily obtained with existing setups for face and iris, and the requirement of user cooperation can be relaxed, thus facilitating the interaction with biometric systems. It is also available over a wide range of distances even when the iris texture cannot be reliably obtained (low resolution) or under partial face occlusion (close distances). Here, we review the state of the art in periocular biometrics research. A number of aspects are described, including: i) existing databases, ii) algorithms for periocular detection and/or segmentation, iii) features employed for recognition, iv) identification of the most discriminative regions of the periocular area, v) comparison with iris and face modalities, vi) soft-biometrics (gender/ethnicity classification), and vii) impact of gender transformation and plastic surgery on the recognition accuracy. This work is expected to provide an insight of the most relevant issues in periocular biometrics, giving a comprehensive coverage of the existing literature and current state of the art.

Superconductivity in Ultrasmall Metallic Grains

description: We develop a theory of superconductivity in ultrasmall (nm-scale) metallic grains having a discrete electronic eigenspectrum with a mean level spacing of order of the bulk gap. The theory is based on calculating the eigenspectrum using a generalized BCS variational approach, whose applicability has been extensively demonstrated in studies of pairing correlations in nuclear physics. We discuss how conventional mean field theory breaks down with decreasing sample size, how the so-called blocking effect weakens pairing correlations in states with non-zero total spin, and how this affects the discrete eigenspectrum's behavior in a magnetic field, which favors non-zero total spin. In ultrasmall grains, spin magnetism dominates orbital magnetism, just as in thin films in a parallel field; but whereas in the latter the magnetic-field induced transition to a normal state is known to be first-order, we show that in ultrasmall grains it is softened by finite size effects. Our calculations qualitatively reproduce the magnetic-field dependent tunneling spectra for individual aluminum grains measured recently by Ralph, Black and Tinkham. We argue that previously-discussed parity effects for the odd-even ground state energy difference are presently not observable for experimental reasons, and propose an analogous parity effect for the pair-breaking energy that should be observable provided that the grain size can be controlled sufficiently well. Finally, experimental evidence is pointed out that the dominant role played by time-reversed pairs of states, well-established in bulk and in dirty superconductors, persists also in ultrasmall grains.

description: Ethyl (R)-2-benzyloxy-2-isopropylhydrogenmalonate is a key intermediate for the synthesis of the side chain in ergopeptines. In this work, we adopted a method to prepare enantiomerically pure title monoester via immobilized Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozym 435)-catalyzed hydrolysis of the corresponding diester. Novozyme 435 catalyzed hydrolysis reaction to prepare the key intermediate for the synthesis of peptide side chain of ergopeptides.
How to make the Earth orbit the Sun in 1614

Subjects: subject: History and Philosophy of Physics (physics.hist-ph)

description: In 1614 Johann Georg Locher, a student of the Jesuit astronomer Christoph Scheiner, proposed a physical mechanism to explain how the Earth could orbit the sun. An orbit, Locher said, is a perpetual fall. He proposed this despite the fact that he rejected the Copernican system, citing problems with falling bodies and the sizes of stars under that system. In 1651 and again in 1680, Jesuit writers Giovanni Battista Riccioli and Athanasius Kircher, respectively, considered and rejected outright Locher's idea of an orbit as a perpetual fall. Thus this important concept of an orbit was proposed, considered, and rejected well before Isaac Newton would use an entirely different physics to make the idea that an orbit is a perpetual fall the common way of envisioning and explaining orbits.

Interband proximity effect and nodes of superconducting gap in Sr2RuO4

description: The power-law temperature dependences of the specific heat, the nuclear relaxation rate, and the thermal conductivity suggest the presence of line nodes in the superconducting gap of Sr2RuO4. These recent experimental observations contradict the scenario of a nodeless (k_x+ik_y)-type superconducting order parameter. We propose that interaction of superconducting order parameters on different sheets of the Fermi surface is a key to understanding the above discrepancy. A full gap exists in the active band, which drives the superconducting instability, while line nodes develop in passive bands by interband proximity effect.

description: This research represents an effort for revealing the close relationship between space production process and the characteristics of the society which produces that space, through the examination of the case of Holland and the city of Amsterdam. The object put under consideration is the contribution of the effect of natural space on defining the space production processes and on the formation of both an individual and collective temperament. Different aspects of a society are formed into the space where it lives and functions, and are imprinted on the space it produces. For the Dutch , contact with water is a continuous experience that follows them from the first steps of their history and affects their lives in numerous ways. We track down the aspects of life and relationships in Dutch society whose constitution may be connected to management and control processes of the element of water or may be affected by them. With reference to the city of Amsterdam, we are looking for the expression of these social characteristics on urban space.
