Conserved Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation: Role of quenched disorder in determining universality
Creators: name: Mukherjee, Sudip
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the stochastically driven conserved Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (CKPZ) equation with quenched disorders. Short-ranged quenched disorders is found to be a relevant perturbation on the pure CKPZ equation at one dimension, and as a result, a new universality class different from pure CKPZ equation appears to emerge. At higher dimensions, quenched disorder turns out to be ineffective to influence the universal scaling. This results in the asymptotic long wavelength scaling to be given by the linear theory, a scenario identical with the pure CKPZ equation. For sufficiently long-ranged quenched disorders, the universal scaling is impacted by the quenched disorder even at higher dimensions.

description: The coupling between advection and diffusion in position space can often lead to enhanced mass transport compared to diffusion without flow. An important framework used to characterize the long-time diffusive transport in position space is the generalized Taylor dispersion theory. In contrast, the dynamics and transport in orientation space remains less developed. In this work, we develop a rotational Taylor dispersion theory that characterizes the long-time orientational transport of a spheroidal particle in linear flows that is constrained to rotate in the velocity-gradient plane. Similar to Taylor dispersion in position space, the orientational distribution of axisymmetric particles in linear flows at long times satisfies an effective advection-diffusion equation in orientation space. Using this framework, we then calculate the long-time average angular velocity and dispersion coefficient for both simple shear and extensional flows. Analytic expressions for the transport coefficients are derived in several asymptotic limits including nearly-spherical particles, weak flow, and strong flow. Our analysis shows that at long times the effective rotational dispersion is enhanced in simple shear and suppressed in extensional flow. The asymptotic solutions agree with full numerical solutions of the derived macrotransport equations and results from Brownian dynamics simulations. Our results show that the interplay between flow-induced rotations and Brownian diffusion can fundamentally change the long-time transport dynamics.

description: Evaluating a functional integral exactly over a subset of metrics that represent the quantum fluctuations of the horizon of a black hole, we obtain a Schroedinger equation in null coordinate time for the key component of the metric. The equation yields a current that preserves probability if we use the most natural choice of functional measure. This establishes the existence of blurred horizons and a thermal atmosphere. It has been argued previously that the existence of a thermal atmosphere is a direct concomitant of the thermal radiation of black holes when the temperature of the hole is greater than that of its larger environment, which we take as zero.

description: We present predictions for hadronic decays of the Higgs boson at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD matched with parton shower based on the POWHEG framework. Those include decays into bottom quarks with full bottom-quark mass dependence, light quarks, and gluons in the heavy top quark effective theory. Our calculations describe exclusive decays of the Higgs boson with leading logarithmic accuracy in the Sudakov region and next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy matched with parton shower in the three-jet region, with normalizations fixed to the partial width at NNLO. We estimated remaining perturbative uncertainties taking typical event shape variables as an example and demonstrated the need of future improvements on both parton shower and matrix element calculations. The calculations can be used immediately in evaluations of the physics performances of detector designs for future Higgs factories.

Publisher: name: Kentucky Transportation Center, University of Kentucky
Year: 1974
Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: The structural design of culverts requires a reliable estimate of the earth pressures which will come to bear on the structure during and after construction of the embankment. The actual bearing pressure at a given time and under various conditions of differential settlement may be greater or less than the deadload of the fill or embankment over the structure. This report describes the instrumentation and construction of three box culverts designed by the imperfect trench method. A total of 42 Carlson earth pressure cells were installed in conjunction with strain gages and settlement measuring devices, including inverted settlement plates and mercury settlement gages. Measurements made during the first few months indicate the imperfect trench has considerably reduced the overburden loads bearing on the structures.

description: The standard cosmological scenario predicts a hierarchical formation for galaxies. Many substructures were found in the Galactic halo, identified as clumps in kinematic spaces, like the energy-angular momentum one (E-Lz), under the hypothesis of the conservation of these quantities. If these clumps also feature different chemical properties, e.g. metallicity distribution functions (MDF), they are often associated to independent merger debris. The aim of this study is to explore to what extent we can couple kinematics and metallicities of stars in the Galactic halo to reconstruct the accretion history of the Milky Way. In particular, we want to understand whether different clumps in the E-Lz space with different MDF should be associated to distinct merger debris. We analysed dissipationless, self-consistent high-resolution N-body simulations of a MW-type galaxy accreting a satellite with mass ratio 1:10, with different orbital parameters and metallicity gradients (assigned a posteriori). We confirm that accreted stars from a ~1:10 satellite redistribute in a wide range of E and Lz, due to the dynamical friction, thus not being associated to a single clump. Because satellite stars with different metallicities can be deposited in different regions of the E-Lz space (on average the more metal-rich ones end up more gravitationally bound to the MW), this implies that a single ~1:10 accretion can manifest with different MDFs, in different regions of the E-Lz space. Groups of stars with different E, Lz and metallicities may be interpreted as originating from different satellites, but our analysis shows that these interpretations are not physically motivated. In fact, the coupling of kinematics with MDFs to reconstruct the accretion history of the MW can bias the reconstructed merger tree towards increasing the number of past accretions and decreasing the masses of the progenitor galaxies.

description: Objectives: We investigated pediatric rare disease researchers’ experiences and perspectives with research collaborations involving industry partners. Methods: This mixed methods study included a cross-sectional survey of academic/hospital-based Canadian pediatric rare disease researchers which informed semi-structured interviews with a subsample of survey participants. We analyzed survey data descriptively and interview data thematically, integrating findings narratively. Results: Of 126 survey respondents, 59 (47%) reported research collaborations with industry; we interviewed 10 of these researchers. Important benefits to collaborations with industry reported by survey participants and interviewees included access to funding and resources, while disadvantages stemmed from perceptions that partners had different motivations. Interviewees provided advice for future researchers including careful selection of an industry partner, relationship building, clear expectations, and utilizing supportive institutional structures. Conclusion: Our findings provide insights into the experiences of pediatric rare disease researchers and offer suggestions on how to conduct successful collaborative research with industry.

description: Deep learning approaches to anomaly detection have recently improved the state of the art in detection performance on complex datasets such as large collections of images or text. These results have sparked a renewed interest in the anomaly detection problem and led to the introduction of a great variety of new methods. With the emergence of numerous such methods, including approaches based on generative models, one-class classification, and reconstruction, there is a growing need to bring methods of this field into a systematic and unified perspective. In this review we aim to identify the common underlying principles as well as the assumptions that are often made implicitly by various methods. In particular, we draw connections between classic 'shallow' and novel deep approaches and show how this relation might cross-fertilize or extend both directions. We further provide an empirical assessment of major existing methods that is enriched by the use of recent explainability techniques, and present specific worked-through examples together with practical advice. Finally, we outline critical open challenges and identify specific paths for future research in anomaly detection.

Heating the 9th Street Interchange, Louisville, KY
Creators: name: Havens, James H.
Publisher: name: Kentucky Transportation Center, University of Kentucky
Year: 1974
Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: The 9th Street interchange, I 64-2(87)3, was first conceived about 1959. Preliminary design studies began in the early 1960's. Design began about 1964. The idea of heating the ramps was first considered in the early 1960's but was not pursued intently until the final design stage (about 1968). As the design progressed, it became more and more evident that snowing and icing conditions could prevent otherwise normal passage of traffic up and down the ramps. At one point on the structure, a combination of superelevation and grade would produce a 6 1/2 percent slope. The highest ramp or "fly over" would stand about 80 feet in the air and project out over the Ohio River. A single vehicle askew could cause a severe pile-up and back-up of traffic. If cinders and(or) salt could not be brought in, people might abandon their vehicles. A tram system to bring in abrasives and salt was considered as an alternative to an electrical heating system in the deck. Several ideas were explored in an attempt to avoid imbedding wires in the deck slabs. "Heat pipes" were considered; but costs were then very great, and production in sizes and lengths could not be assured. The pro's and con's of imbedding cables in the concrete as compared to imbedding them in a bituminous overlay were weighed; the deciding factors were: (1) the improbability of finding a satisfactory schema for cable replacement in either case, (2) the apparent advantages of providing extra heating capacity together with back-up circuitry. Conduits were rejected because of heat-transfer problems inside the conduit and costs. Of course, the question arose: What will happen to the cables when cracks develop in the concrete? Someone remarked: "There are no cracks on these plans". However, to avoid concentrated deformations and stressing of the cable if cracks occurred, it was decided to lubricate the cable to prevent bonding to the concrete. This would also prevent stress rises due to differential thermal expansion.

description: Much previous work on agricultural stabilization has emphasized price stabilization. Stabilization is given a different meaning here. Additive error terms are attached to linear supply and demand functions, and the effects on consumers' and producers' surpluses of reducing these error terms are studied. That is, the error terms are assumed to have their variances reduced, and the expected values of the surpluses are derived and compared with their expected values corresponding to the original error term variances. The results are not favourable, and suggest that, with the particular criterion used here, stabilization of supply and demand functions is not as desirable as generally believed. Further results, allowing for shifts in the functions and the introduction of risk aversion are less unequivocal, and require empirical knowledge for conclusions to be reached.

description: We present spectroscopic observations of six optical counterparts of intermediate luminosity X-ray sources (ULXs) around nearby galaxies. The spectra of the six objects show the presence of broad emission features. The identification of these allow us to classify all of the objects as quasars at higher redshift than their assigned parent galaxy. This is one of the first and largest identifications of such objects using unambigous optical spectral features. These results, in conjuction with previous similar identifications of other sources, indicate that high redshift quasars represent an important fraction of catalogued ULX sources. We estimate the density of such sources and compare this with expectations for a population of randomly distributed background quasars.

description: The need for comprehensive information on the characteristics and behavior of earth materials has been recognized for many years, perhaps for as long as significant construction has taken place in and on the surface of the earth. In recent years, however, the magnitude and complexity of engineered construction has greatly increased, resulting in a corresponding increase in the need for information on the engineering properties of soil and rock materials, Direct testing of soil and rock can be utilized to furnish necessary information. However, both field and laboratory testing can be extremely expensive, particularly where testing must include applications of stress to large masses of earth material, For this reason, significant technical and economic advantages can be realized through the development of indirect or "short-cut" methods for obtaining indications of the properties and characteristics of geologic materials.  Some years ago the value of topographic maps, aerial photographs, pedologic descriptions, and geological surveys in characterizing soil materials was realized. To make this information useful for engineering studies, a serious effort was initiated to obtain data on the engineering properties of various soil groups and associations established on the basis of geological and pedological surveys. The correlation of performance data with information on areal distribution and location furnished by geologic and pedologic works has proven extremely valuable in the planning and construction of facilities in and on soil.  In recent years, the size and importance of structures and facilities designed by engineers and architects has greatly increased. This has produced an increased interest in the rock materials underlying surficial soil layers. A clear need has arisen for a program to provide an engineering evaluation of rock materials for the purposes of location, design, construction, and maintenance of engineered facilities. However, a serious gap exists in the association of engineering characteristics with rock units identified on the basis of geological classifications, Therefore, there is a need for the development of a comprehensive evaluation program which permits utilization of existing data and which aids in the procurement of necessary information on engineering characteristics of rock.

description: Autonomous underwater vehicles are specialized platforms engineered for deep underwater operations. Critical to their functionality is autonomous navigation, typically relying on an inertial navigation system and a Doppler velocity log. In real-world scenarios, incomplete Doppler velocity log measurements occur, resulting in positioning errors and mission aborts. To cope with such situations, a model and learning approaches were derived. This paper presents a comparative analysis of two cutting-edge deep learning methodologies, namely LiBeamsNet and MissBeamNet, alongside a model-based average estimator. These approaches are evaluated for their efficacy in regressing missing Doppler velocity log beams when two beams are unavailable. In our study, we used data recorded by a DVL mounted on an autonomous underwater vehicle operated in the Mediterranean Sea. We found that both deep learning architectures outperformed model-based approaches by over 16% in velocity prediction accuracy.

description: In this article the development and present state of the field of spatial equilibrium theory and analysis is reviewed, particularly with respect to its application to the location of agricultural production. After surveying the historical aspects of location theory and the relationships between classical and modern theory, three major model forms are developed in some detail, viz., standard equilibrium models using supply and demand relations, activity analysis models using production functions, factor endowments and demand relations, and dynamic (recursive) models incorporating behavioral restrictions into the standard programming form. Next the study of the location of agricultural processing industry is surveyed, and finally problems of practical application, including aggregation problems and questions of data availability, are reviewed.

description: A BCI user awareness of an error is associated with a cortical signature named error-related potential (ErrP). The incorporation of ErrPs' detection in BCIs can improve BCIs' performance. This work is three-folded. First, we investigate if an ErrP classifier is transferable from able-bodied participants to participants with spinal cord injury (SCI). Second, we test this generic ErrP classifier with SCI and control participants, in an online experiment without offline calibration. Third, we investigate the morphology of ErrPs in both groups of participants. We used previously recorded electroencephalographic (EEG) data from able-bodied participants to train an ErrP classifier. We tested the classifier asynchronously, in an online experiment with 16 new participants: 8 participants with SCI and 8 able-bodied control participants. The experiment had no offline calibration and participants received feedback regarding the ErrPs' detection from its start. The generic classifier was not trained with the user's brain signals. Still, its performance was optimized during the online experiment with the use of personalized decision thresholds. Participants with SCI presented a non-homogenous ErrP morphology, and four of them did not present clear ErrP signals. The generic classifier performed above chance level in participants with clear ErrP signals, independently of the SCI (11 out of 16 participants). Three out of the five participants that obtained chance level results with the generic classifier would have not benefited from the use of a personalized classifier. This work shows the feasibility of transferring an ErrP classifier from able-bodied participants to participants with SCI, for asynchronous detection of ErrPs in an online experiment without offline calibration, which provided immediate feedback to the users.
Log hazard regression
Creators: name: Sun, Huiying
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: We propose using regression splines to estimate the two log marginal hazard functions of bivariate survival times, where each time could be censored. The method is a modified version of Kooperberg, Stone and Truong's (JASA, 1995) hazard regression for estimating a univariate survival time. We derive an approach to find standard errors for estimates of the difference of the log hazard functions. The approach is inspired by- Wei, Lin, and Weissfeld (JASA, 1989). We also propose procedures for testing the four hypotheses that the marginals follow an exponential or Weibull distribution and that the two failure times have the same distribution or have proportional hazards. A simulation study is conducted to assess the performance of our estimates and test procedures. We study the effects of the censoring rates, correlation levels, and number of knots. The regression is applied to the data set of the Diabetic Retinopathy Study (Diabetic Retinopathy Study Research Group, 1981). Our analysis for the data set matches study results of Huster, Brookmeyer, and Self (1989).

description: The disk around AU Microscopii, an M1 star in the Beta Pictoris Moving Group, is extraordinarily well-suited for comparison to the Beta Pic debris disk (type A5V). We use far-UV absorption spectroscopy of AU Mic to probe its edge-on disk for small amounts of molecular hydrogen, the primary constituent of gas giant planets. Our conservative upper limit on the line-of-sight H_2 column density is 1.7 x 10^{19} cm^{-2}, which is 18.5 times lower than the limit obtained from non-detection of sub-mm CO emission (Liu et al. 2004). In addition, there is a hint of H_2 absorption at a column density an order of magnitude or more below our upper limit. The H_2-to-dust ratio in the AU Mic disk is < 6:1, similar to that in the Beta Pic disk. This shows that the primordial gas has largely been dissipated in less than about 12 Myr for both disks, despite their very different stellar masses and luminosities. It is extremely difficult to form a giant planet around AU Mic with current core-accretion scenarios in such a short time.

description: Using a large set of high resolution numerical simulations incorporating non-equilibrium molecular hydrogen chemistry and a constant source of external radiation, we study gas collapse in previously photo-ionized mini-galaxies with virial temperatures less than 10^4 K in the early universe (redshifts z=10-20). We confirm that the mechanism of positive feedback of ionizing radiation on star formation in mini-galaxies proposed by Ricotti, Gnedin, & Shull (2002) can be efficient despite a significant flux of metagalactic photo-dissociating radiation. We derive critical fluxes for the Lyman-Werner background radiation sufficient to prevent the collapse of gas in mini-galaxies as a function of the virial mass of the halo and redshift. In our model, the formation of mini-galaxies in defunct HII regions is most efficient at large redshifts (z>15) and/or for large local gas overdensity delta>10. We show that non-equilibrium chemistry plays an important dynamical role not only during the initial evolutionary phase leading to the gas becoming gravitationally unstable inside the mini-halo, but also at the advanced stages of the core collapse, resulting in efficient gas accretion in the core region. We speculate on a possible connection between our objects and metal-poor globular clusters and dwarf spheroidal galaxies.

description: В данной работе актуализирована персонифицированная (личностная) составляющая в имидже региона, рассмотренная на примере имиджа Главы Республики Мордовия В.Д. Волкова. В рамках прикладного исследования «Республика Мордовия в фокусе современной имиджелогии», разработана и составлена имидж-карта регионального лидера, рассмотрены основные линии его имиджевого позиционирования, а также векторы продвижения территории, транслируемые в речевых коммуникациях. Авторы приходят к выводу, что среди всех имиджеобразующих субъектов именно глава исполнительной власти региона, уделяет достаточное внимание формированию своего имиджа, с целью повышения доверия и узнаваемости у населения. Однако современные реалии и вызовы развития (прежде всего экономические проблемы, пандемия COVID-19) требуют от региональной власти усиления работы с общественным мнением, а также большей информационной открытости.

description: Sequence labelling tasks like Dialog Act and Emotion/Sentiment identification are a key component of spoken dialog systems. In this work, we propose a new approach to learn generic representations adapted to spoken dialog, which we evaluate on a new benchmark we call Sequence labellIng evaLuatIon benChmark fOr spoken laNguagE benchmark (\texttt{SILICONE}). \texttt{SILICONE} is model-agnostic and contains 10 different datasets of various sizes. We obtain our representations with a hierarchical encoder based on transformer architectures, for which we extend two well-known pre-training objectives. Pre-training is performed on OpenSubtitles: a large corpus of spoken dialog containing over $2.3$ billion of tokens. We demonstrate how hierarchical encoders achieve competitive results with consistently fewer parameters compared to state-of-the-art models and we show their importance for both pre-training and fine-tuning.

description: In many applications it is important to be able to sample paths of SDEs conditional on observations of various kinds. This paper studies SPDEs which solve such sampling problems. The SPDE may be viewed as an infinite dimensional analogue of the Langevin SDE used in finite dimensional sampling. Here the theory is developed for conditioned Gaussian processes for which the resulting SPDE is linear. Applications include the Kalman-Bucy filter/smoother. A companion paper studies the nonlinear case, building on the linear analysis provided here.
A Novel Geometric Solution for Moving Target Localization through Multistatic Sensing in the ISAC System

description: This paper proposes a novel geometric solution for tracking a moving target through multistatic sensing. In contrast to existing two-step weighted least square (2SWLS) methods which use the bistatic range (BR) and bistatic range rate (BRR) measurements, the proposed method incorporates an additional direction of arrival (DOA) measurement of the target obtained from a communication receiver in an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system. Unlike the existing 2SWLS methods that require at least three transmitter-receiver (TX-RX) pairs to operate, the proposed algorithm can conduct location estimation with a single TX-RX pair and velocity estimation with two TX-RX pairs. Simulations reveal that the proposed method exhibits superior performance compared to existing 2SWLS methods, particularly when dealing with moderate levels of noise in DOA measurements.

Особое внимание обращается на то, что государственная молодежная политика в Российской Федерации представляет собой систему мер финансово-экономического, нормативно-правового, информационно-аналитического, организационно-управленческого, научного и кадрового характера, которая реализуется посредством диалога институтов гражданского общества, государства и граждан с целью самореализации потенциала молодежи страны для последующего социально-экономического развития государства, повышения его конкурентоспособности в мире, упрочнения лидерских позиций в стратегически важных отраслях экономики.
Transportation planning as if the neighbourhood mattered : Part II a case study of the Broadway Skytrain Station in Vancouver, BC, Canada
Creators: name: Hurmuses, April Dea
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Although the region has acquired expertise in the physical dimensions of rapid transit implementation, that expertise has not translated into a better understanding of social impacts on communities which host this regional amenity. The Broadway Station area is such a community. Although the City of Vancouver is responsible for planning the Broadway Station area community, many provincial decisions have had far-reaching consequences and do not correspond with municipal policy for the community. The province has introduced region-serving programs and facilities into the community despite municipal policy that the Broadway Station area would not serve a regional role. As a consequence, the community is becoming increasingly unlivable. There is a de facto policy vacuum. Moreover, there is a lack of coordination and an absence of protocols for managing and sharing data. There is little, if any, coordination of senior government actions, and the actions of various levels of government and their agencies have resulted in the Broadway Station Area failing to achieve the goal of community livability, for the resident community. The City of Vancouver, within which the case study station resides, has so far been unable to respond to the challenge that the station poses. The degree to which the station area is becoming dysfunctional is not known to the city. Consequently, the thesis question "Is the Broadway Station Area worse off than before SkyTrain" posed a significant challenge. In addition to a review of the case study planning process, which was conducted by the thesis researcher in the latter half of 1996, this thesis adds interviews with professional planners and a limited empirical study to answer the thesis question. By looking at a limited number of key census indicators, and cross comparing that with other data sources, the thesis found that the community's perception has merit, although a great deal more data must be compiled. To better understand what works in the Canadian context of transit-oriented planning, we need to support ongoing qualitative community planning with the empirical work that would assist in monitoring the effect of policies and program implementation and can address the dynamism of this regional transit node.
The perturbative CFT optical theorem and high-energy string scattering in AdS at one loop

description: We derive an optical theorem for perturbative CFTs which computes the double discontinuity of conformal correlators from the single discontinuities of lower order correlators, in analogy with the optical theorem for flat space scattering amplitudes. The theorem takes a purely multiplicative form in the CFT impact parameter representation used to describe high-energy scattering in the dual AdS theory. We use this result to study four-point correlation functions that are dominated in the Regge limit by the exchange of the graviton Regge trajectory (Pomeron) in the dual theory. At one-loop the scattering is dominated by double Pomeron exchange and receives contributions from tidal excitations of the scattering states which are efficiently described by an AdS vertex function, in close analogy with the known Regge limit result for one-loop string scattering in flat space at finite string tension. We compare the flat space limit of the conformal correlator to the flat space results and thus derive constraints on the one-loop vertex function for type IIB strings in AdS and also on general spinning tree level type IIB amplitudes in AdS.

Full polarization study of SiO masers at 86 GHz

description: We study the polarization of the SiO maser emission in a representative sample of evolved stars in order to derive an estimate of the strength of the magnetic field, and thus determine the influence of this magnetic field on evolved stars. We made simultaneous spectroscopic measurements of the 4 Stokes parameters, from which we derived the circular and linear polarization levels. The observations were made with the IF polarimeter installed at the IRAM 30m telescope. A discussion of the existing SiO maser models is developed in the light of our observations. Under the Zeeman splitting hypothesis, we derive an estimate of the strength of the magnetic field. The averaged magnetic field varies between 0 and 20 Gauss, with a mean value of 3.5 Gauss, and follows a 1/r law throughout the circumstellar envelope. As a consequence, the magnetic field may play the role of a shaping, or perhaps collimating agent of the circumstellar envelopes in evolved objects.
