description: In this paper, we compute the forward-backward asymmetry and the isospin asymmetry of the $B \to K^* μ^+ μ^-$ decay. The $B \to K^*$ transition form factors (TFFs) are key components of the decay. To achieve a more accurate QCD prediction, we adopt a chiral correlator for calculating the QCD light-cone sum rules for those TFFs with the purpose of suppressing the uncertain high-twist distribution amplitudes. Our predictions show that the asymmetries under the Standard Model and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with minimal flavor violation are close in shape for $q^2 \ge 6~{\rm GeV}^2$ and are consistent with the Belle, LHCb and CDF data within errors. When $q^2 < 2~{\rm GeV}^2$, their predictions behave quite differently. Thus a careful study on the $B \to K^* μ^+ μ^-$ decay within small $q^2$-region could be helpful for searching new physics beyond the Standard Model. As a further application, we also apply the $B \to K^*$ TFFs to the branching ratio and longitudinal polarization fraction of the $B\to K^*ν\barν$ decay within different models.

description: The HCN emission of the pure rotation and rotation/vibration lines in comet IRAS-Araki-Alcock 1983d is examined. The prevailing excitation mechanism for the emissions was the excitation of the nu-2, 2 nu-2, and nu-3 vibrational bands by the solar infrared field. For the description of inner coma, a dynamical excitation model is presented which includes collisions. It is predicted on the basis of the model that HCN molecules in rotation and rotation vibration lines of IRAS-Araki-Alcock 1983d would be detectable with a large-millimeter wave telescope, and that the strongest infrared lines would be observable from space observatories. Subsequent searches for the J = 1-0 HCN radio lines in comet 1983d with the Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory (FCRAO) proved unsuccessful. An extremely low upper limit was found for HCN production which suggests that HCN might not be the only parent of planetary cometary CN.

description: The nodal and effectively relativistic dispersion featuring in a range of novel materials including two- dimensional graphene and three-dimensional Dirac and Weyl semimetals has attracted enormous interest during the past decade. Here, by studying the structure and symmetry of the diagrammatic expansion, we show that these nodal touching points are in fact perturbatively stable to all orders with respect to generic two-body interactions. For effective low-energy theories relevant for single and multilayer graphene, type-I and type-II Weyl and Dirac semimetals as well as Weyl points with higher topological charge, this stability is shown to be a direct consequence of a spatial symmetry that anti-commutes with the effective Hamiltonian while leaving the interaction invariant. A more refined argument is applied to the honeycomb lattice model of graphene showing that its Dirac points are also perturbatively stable to all orders. We also give examples of nodal Hamiltonians that acquire a gap from interactions as a consequence of symmetries different from those of Weyl and Dirac materials.

description: The hot Jupiter HD 189733b was observed during its primary transit using the Infrared Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The transit depths were measured simultaneously at 3.6 and 5.8 microns. Our analysis yields values of 2.356 +- 0.019 % and 2.436 +- 0.020$ % at 3.6 and 5.8 microns respectively, for a uniform source. We estimated the contribution of the limb-darkening and star-spot effects on the final results. We concluded that although the limb darkening increases by ~0.02-0.03 % the transit depths, and the differential effects between the two IRAC bands is even smaller, 0.01 %. Furthermore, the host star is known to be an active spotted K star with observed photometric modulation. If we adopt an extreme model of 20 % coverage with spots 1000K cooler of the star surface, it will make the observed transits shallower by 0.19 and 0.18 %. The difference between the two bands will be only of 0.01 %, in the opposite direction to the limb darkening correction. If the transit depth is affected by limb darkening and spots, the differential effects between the 3.6 and 5.8 microns bands are very small. The differential transit depths at 3.6 and 5.8 microns and the recent one published by Knutson et al.(2007) at 8 microns are in agreement with the presence of water vapour in the upper atmosphere of the planet. This is the companion paper to Tinetti et al. (2007b), where the detailed atmosphere models are presented.

description: Paradigms provide an inherent organizational structure to natural language morphology. ParaMor, our minimally supervised morphology induction algorithm, retrusses the word forms of raw text corpora back onto their paradigmatic skeletons; performing on par with state-ofthe- art minimally supervised morphology induction algorithms at morphological analysis of English and German. ParaMor consists of two phases. Our algorithm first constructs sets of affixes closely mimicking the paradigms of a language. And with these structures in hand, ParaMor then annotates word forms with morpheme boundaries. To set ParaMor’s few free parameters we analyze a training corpus of Spanish. Without adjusting parameters, we induce the morphological structure of English and German. Adopting the evaluation methodology of Morpho Challenge 2007 (Kurimo et al., 2007), we compare ParaMor’s morphological analyses with Morfessor (Creutz, 2006), a modern minimally supervised morphology induction system. ParaMor consistently achieves competitive F1 measures.

description: The dynamics of biological processes are often modeled as systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODE). An important feature of nonlinear ODEs is that seemingly minor changes in initial conditions or parameters can lead to radically different behaviors. This is problematic because in general it is never possible to know/measure the precise state of any biological system due to measurement errors. The parameter synthesis problem is to identify sets of parameters (including initial conditions) for which a given system of nonlinear ODEs does not reach a given set of undesirable states. We present an efficient algorithm for solving this problem that combines sensitivity analysis with an efficient search over initial conditions. It scales to high-dimensional models and is exact if the given model is affine. We demonstrate our method on a model of the acute inflammatory response to bacterial infection, and identify initial conditions consistent with 3 biologically relevant outcomes.

description: Consider a set of continuous maps from the interval $[0,1]$ to a domain in ${\mathbb R}^d$. Although the topological boundary of this set in the path space is not smooth in general, by using the theory of functions of bounded variation (BV functions) on the Wiener space and the theory of Dirichlet forms, we can discuss the existence of the surface measure and the Skorokhod representation of the reflecting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process associated with the canonical Dirichlet form on this set.

Boomerang RG flows with intermediate conformal invariance

description: For a class of $D=5$ holographic models we construct boomerang RG flow solutions that start in the UV at an $AdS_5$ vacuum and end up at the same vacuum in the IR. The RG flows are driven by deformations by relevant operators that explicitly break translation invariance. For specific models, such that they admit another $AdS_5$ solution, $AdS_5^c$, we show that for large enough deformations the RG flows approach an intermediate scaling regime with approximate conformal invariance governed by $AdS^c_5$. For these flows we calculate the holographic entanglement entropy and the entropic $c$-function for the RG flows. The latter is not monotonic, but it does encapsulate the degrees of freedom in each scaling region. For a different set of models, we find boomerang RG flows with intermediate scaling governed by an $AdS_2\times\mathbb{R}^3$ solution which breaks translation invariance. Furthermore, for large enough deformations these models have interesting and novel thermal insulating ground states for which the entropy vanishes as the temperature goes to zero, but not as a power-law. Remarkably, the thermal diffusivity and the butterfly velocity for these new insulating ground states are related via $D=Ev^2_B/(2πT)$, with $E(T)\to 0.5$ as $T\to 0$.

description: We consider the quantum theory of the Lorentzian fermionic differential forms and the corresponding bi-spinor quantum fields, which are the expansion coefficients of the forms in the bi-spinor basis of Becher and Joos [7]. The canonical quantization procedure for the bi-spinor gauge theory in terms of its Dirac spinor constituents is described in detail and the corresponding Feynman rules are derived. We also derive all possible mass terms for massive fermions in the bi-spinor gauge theory. The solutions are classified by a scalar spin quantum number, a number that has no analog in the standard gauge theory and in the SM. The possible mass terms correspond to combinations of scalar spin zero singlets and scalar spin one-half doublets in the generation space. A description of the connection between Lorentz spin of bi-spinors and scalar spin of bi-spinor constituents is given.

description: Motivated by current interest in the dynamics of trapped quantum gases, we study the microcanonical dynamics of a trapped one-dimensional gas of classical particles interacting via a finite-range repulsive force of tunable strength. We examine two questions which have been of interest in quantum dynamics: (1) the breathing mode (size oscillation) dynamics of the trapped gas and the dependence of the breathing frequency on the interaction strength, and (2) the long-time relaxation and possible thermalization of the finite isolated gas. We show that the breathing mode frequency has non-monotonic dependence on the magnitude of the mutual repulsion, decreasing for small interactions and increasing for larger interactions. We explain these dependences in terms of slowing-down or speeding-up effects of two-body collision processes. We find that the gas thermalizes within a reasonable finite timescale in the sense of single-particle energies acquiring a Boltzmann distribution, only when the interaction strength is large compared to the energy per particle.

description: Genus Ctena Mörch, 1861
Ctena Mörch, 1861: 201.
TYPE SPECIES. — Lucina pectinata Carpenter, 1857, non L. pectinata C. B. Adams, 1852 (replacement name Codakia (Jagonia) mexicana Dall, 1901) (subsequent designation by Dall et al. [1938]).
DIAGNOSIS. — Shells small to medium sized, sub-circular, umbones prominent. Radial ribs prominent, bifurcating and intercalating. Commarginal lamellae fine, forming scales on summits of ribs. Lunule long, heart-shaped, asymmetric with greater part in RV. Ligament short, set in oblique triangular resilifer.
REMARKS
Although Ctena and Epicodakia are frequently confused (see below under Epicodakia), there are a number of characters that can be used to separate them. Ctena can be distinguished by the presence of irregular and bifurcating radial ribs compared to the more evenly spaced ribs that rarely bifurcate in Epicodakia; the commarginal lamellae are also lower, more evenly and regularly spaced in Epicodakia, giving a scaly appearance. Ctena has a short ligament located in a more or less deeply inset resilifer on the hinge plate that differs from the mainly longer and external ligament of Epicodakia. The hinge plate of Ctena is always broader and more robust and the lunule is shorter and more heart-shaped. The juvenile shell of Ctena has far more prominent radial ribbing.
Molecular and morphological evidence also indicates that Ctena and Codakia are related (Williams et al. 2004). However, Ctena species have smaller, more ovate shells and radial ribs that are typically bifurcated. The lunule in Codakia is much deeper, shorter and more triangular in outline compared to the shallower lanceolate lunule in Ctena. Unlike Ctena, the anterior lateral teeth in both left and right valves of Codakia lie extremely close to the cardinal teeth.

description: Sensitivity analysis, especially adjoint based sensitivity analysis, is a powerful tool for engineering design which allows for the efficient computation of sensitivities with respect to many parameters. However, these methods break down when used to compute sensitivities of long-time averaged quantities in chaotic dynamical systems. The following paper presents a new method for sensitivity analysis of {\em ergodic} chaotic dynamical systems, the density adjoint method. The method involves solving the governing equations for the system's invariant measure and its adjoint on the system's attractor manifold rather than in phase-space. This new approach is derived for and demonstrated on one-dimensional chaotic maps and the three-dimensional Lorenz system. It is found that the density adjoint computes very finely detailed adjoint distributions and accurate sensitivities, but suffers from large computational costs.

description: Abstract: Biometric recognition is a widely used technology for user authentication. In the application of this technology, biometric security and recognition accuracy are two important issues that should be considered. In terms of biometric security, cancellable biometrics is an effective technique for protecting biometric data. Regarding recognition accuracy, feature representation plays a significant role in the performance and reliability of cancellable biometric systems. How to design good feature representations for cancellable biometrics is a challenging topic that has attracted a great deal of attention from the computer vision community, especially from researchers of cancellable biometrics. Feature extraction and learning in cancellable biometrics is to find suitable feature representations with a view to achieving satisfactory recognition performance, while the privacy of biometric data is protected. This survey informs the progress, trend and challenges of feature extraction and learning for cancellable biometrics, thus shedding light on the latest developments and future research of this area.

TYPE SPECIES. — Lucina levukana Smith, 1885 (original designation).
DIAGNOSIS. — Shells small, inflated, anteriorly extended. Sculpture of prominent commarginal lamellae with finely striated interspaces, shell surface finely punctate. Umbones prominent, lunule lanceolate, impressed. Ligament internal, short, triangular.Two cardinal teeth in left valve, one in right valve; anterior and posterior lateral teeth prominent in both valves. Pallial line discontinous. Shell margin finely crenulate.
REMARKS
This genus is distinguished from others with an internal ligament by the anteriorly extended shell, the prominent, rounded, commarginal lamellae and the strong anterior and posterior lateral teeth in both valves. On the basis of the shared character of the oblique internal ligament, we included Funafutia along with Pillucina, Wallucina and Chavania as a possible monophyletic clade (Glover & Taylor 2001). However, molecular data (Taylor & Glover unpublished) suggests that Funafutia is unrelated to these other genera.

description: To estimate the growth rate of matrix products $A_{n}\cdots A_{1}$ with factors from some set of matrices $\mathcal{A}$, such numeric quantities as the joint spectral radius $ρ(\mathcal{A})$ and the lower spectral radius $\checkρ(\mathcal{A})$ are traditionally used. The first of these quantities characterizes the maximum growth rate of the norms of the corresponding products, while the second one characterizes the minimal growth rate. In the theory of discrete-time linear switching systems, the inequality $ρ(\mathcal{A})<1$ serves as a criterion for the stability of a system, and the inequality $\checkρ(\mathcal{A})<1 $ as a criterion for stabilizability. For matrix products $A_{n}B_{n}\cdots A_{1}B_{1}$ with factors $A_{i}\in\mathcal{A}$ and $B_{i}\in\mathcal{B}$, where $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ are some sets of matrices, we introduce the quantities $μ(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B})$ and $η(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B})$, called the lower and upper minimax joint spectral radius of the pair $\{\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B}\}$, respectively, which characterize the maximum growth rate of the matrix products $A_{n}B_{n}\cdots A_{1}B_{1}$ over all sets of matrices $A_{i}\in\mathcal{A}$ and the minimal growth rate over all sets of matrices $B_{i}\in\mathcal{B}$. In this sense, the minimax joint spectral radii can be considered as generalizations of both the joint and lower spectral radii. As an application of the minimax joint spectral radii, it is shown how these quantities can be used to analyze the stabilizability of discrete-time linear switching control systems in the presence of uncontrolled external disturbances of the plant.

The Physics of Protoplanetesimal Dust Agglomerates II. Low Velocity Collision Properties

description: For the investigation of collisions among protoplanetesimal dust aggregates, we performed microgravity experiments in which the impacts of high-porosity mm-sized dust aggregates into 2.5 cm-sized high-porosity dust aggregates can be studied. The dust aggregates consisted of micrometer-sized dust grains and were produced by random ballistic deposition with porosities between 85% and 93%. Impact velocities ranged from ~0.1 m/s to ~3 m/s and impact angles were almost randomly distributed. We also used "molded" target aggregates such that the radii of the local surface curvatures corresponded to the projectile radii. The experiments showed that impacts into the highest-porosity targets almost always led to sticking, whereas for the less porous dust aggregates, the collisions with intermediate velocities and high impact angles resulted in the bouncing of the projectile with a mass transfer from the target to the projectile aggregate. Sticking probabilities for the impacts into the "molded" target aggregates were considerably decreased. For the impacts into smooth targets, we measured the depth of intrusion and the crater volume and could derive some interesting dynamical properties which can help to derive a collision model for protoplanetesimal dust aggregates. Future models of the aggregate growth in protoplanetary disks should take into account non-central impacts, impact compression, the influence of the local radius of curvature on the collisional outcome and the possible mass transfer between target and projectile agglomerates in non-sticking collisions.

description: The estimation of glottal flow from a speech waveform is a key method for speech analysis and parameterization. Significant research effort has been made to dissociate the first vocal tract resonance from the glottal formant (the low-frequency resonance describing the open-phase of the vocal fold vibration). However few methods cope with estimation of high-frequency spectral tilt to describe the return-phase of the vocal fold vibration, which is crucial to the perception of vocal effort. This paper proposes an improved version of the well-known Iterative Adaptive Inverse Filtering (IAIF) called GFM-IAIF. GFM-IAIF includes a full spectral model of the glottis that incorporates both glottal formant and spectral tilt features. Comparisons with the standard IAIF method show that while GFM-IAIF maintains good performance on vocal tract removal, it significantly improves the perceptive timbral variations associated to vocal effort.

Modelling redshift-space distortion in the post-reionization ${\rm HI}$ 21-cm power spectrum

description: The post-reionization ${\rm HI}$ 21-cm signal is an excellent candidate for precision cosmology, this however requires accurate modelling of the expected signal. Sarkar et al. (2016) have simulated the real space ${\rm HI}$ 21-cm signal, and have modelled the ${\rm HI}$ power spectrum as $P_{\rm HI}(k)=b^2 P(k)$ where $P(k)$ is the dark matter power spectrum and $b(k)$ is a (possibly complex) scale dependent bias for which fitting formulas have been provided. This paper extends these simulations to incorporate redshift space distortion and predict the expected redshift space ${\rm HI}$ 21-cm power spectrum $P^s_{\rm HI}(k_{\perp},k_{\parallel})$ using two different prescriptions for the ${\rm HI}$ distributions and peculiar velocities. We model $P^s_{\rm HI}(k_{\perp},k_{\parallel})$ assuming that it is the product of $P_{\rm HI}(k)=b^2 P(k)$ with a Kaiser enhancement term and a Finger of God (FoG) damping which has $σ_p$ the pair velocity dispersion as a free parameter. Considering several possibilities for the bias and the damping profile, we find that the models with a scale dependent bias and a Lorentzian damping profile best fit the simulated $P^s_{\rm HI}(k_{\perp},k_{\parallel})$ over the entire range $1 \le z \le 6$. The best fit value of $σ_p$ falls approximately as $(1+z)^{-m}$ with $m=2$ and $1.2$ respectively for the two different prescriptions. The model predictions are consistent with the simulations for $k < 0.3 \, {\rm Mpc}^{-1}$ over the entire $z$ range for the monopole $P^s_0(k)$, and at $z \le 3$ for the quadrupole $P^s_2(k)$. At $z \ge 4$ the models underpredict $P^s_2(k)$ at large $k$, and the fit is restricted to $k < 0.15 \, {\rm Mpc}^{-1}$.

description: Tuning the electronic properties of a material by subjecting it to strain constitutes an important strategy to enhance the performance of semiconducting electronic devices. Using local strain, confinement potentials for excitons can be engineered, with exciting possibilities for trapping excitons for quantum optics and for efficient collection of solar energy. Two-dimensional materials are able to withstand large strains before rupture, offering a unique opportunity to introduce large local strains. Here, we study atomically thin MoS2 layers with large local strains of up to 2.5% induced by controlled delamination from a substrate. Using simultaneous scanning Raman and photoluminescence imaging, we spatially resolve a direct bandgap reduction of up to 90 meV induced by local strain. We observe a funnel effect in which excitons drift hundreds of nanometers to lower bandgap regions before recombining, demonstrating exciton confinement by local strain. The observations are supported by an atomistic tight-binding model developed to predict the effect of inhomogeneous strain on the local electronic states in MoS2. The possibility of generating large strain-induced variations in exciton trapping potentials opens the door for a variety of applications in atomically thin materials including photovoltaics, quantum optics and two-dimensional optoelectronic devices.

description: We discuss realization, properties and performance of the adaptive finite element approach to the design of nano-photonic components. Central issues are the construction of vectorial finite elements and the embedding of bounded components into the unbounded and possibly heterogeneous exterior. We apply the finite element method to the optimization of the design of a hollow core photonic crystal fiber. Thereby we look at the convergence of the method and discuss automatic and adaptive grid refinement and the performance of higher order elements.
Designing Bell inequalities from a Tsirelson bound

description: We present a simple analytic bound on the quantum value of general correlation type Bell inequalities, similar to Tsirelson's bound. It is based on the maximal singular value of the coefficient matrix associated with the inequality. We provide a criterion for tightness of the bound and show that the class of inequalities where our bound is tight covers many famous examples from the literature. We describe how this bound helps to construct Bell inequalities, in particular inequalities that witness the dimension of the measured observables.

Lunule long, lanceolate and impressed; umbonal area prominent. RV with large, single cardinal tooth and prominent posterior and anterior lateral teeth. LV with two cardinal teeth and two anterior and posterior lateral teeth. Ligament internal, with short, narrow, triangular resilifer.

REMARKS
Lucina crosseana Issel, 1869 (p. 255, pl. 3, fig. 3) described from Pleistocene deposits of the Red Sea is possibly an earlier name for this species, but the type material has not been located. Zuschin & Oliver (2003: 109, pl. 25, figs 12-15) illustrate Funafutia cf. crosseana from the northern Red Sea. This is very similar to F. levukana but further work is needed to establish if it is conspecific.

Keys and alternating sign matrices

description: Lascoux and Schützenberger introduced a notion of key associated to any Young tableau. More recently Lascoux defined the key of an alternating sign matrix by recursively removing all -1's in such matrices. But alternating sign matrices are in bijection with monotone triangles, which form a subclass of Young tableaux. We show that in this case these two notions of keys coincide. Moreover we obtain an elegant and direct way to compute the key of any Young tableau, and discuss consequences of our result.

description: We consider the problem of exploiting parallelism to accelerate the performance of spacial access methods and specifically, R-trees [11]. Our goal is to design a server for spatial data, so that to maximize the throughput of range queries. This can be achieved by (a) maximizing parallelism for large range queries, and (b) by engaging as few disks as possible on point queries [22]. We propose a simple hardware architecture consisting of one processor with several disks attached to it. On this architecture, we propose to distribute the nodes of a traditonal R-tree, with cross-disk pointers (“Multiplexed” R-tree). The R-tree code is identical to the one for a single-disk R-tree, with the only addition that we have to decide which disk a newly created R-tree node should be stored in. We propose and examine several criteria to choose a disk for a new node. The most successful one, termed “proximity index” or PI, estimates the similarity of the new node with the other R-tree nodes already on a disk, and chooses the disk with the lowest similarity. Experimental results show that our scheme consistently outperforms all the other heuristics for node-to-disk assignments, achieving up to 55% gains over the Round Robin one. Experiments also indicate that the multiplexed R-tree with PI heuristic gives better response time than the disk-stripping (=“Super-node”) approach, and imposes lighter load on the I/O sub-system. The speed up of our method is close to linear speed up, increasing with the size of the queries.
