description: Using data from the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS), we have discovered four new globular clusters (GCs) associated with the M31 dwarf elliptical (dE) satellites NGC 147 and NGC 185. Three of these are associated with NGC 147 and one with NGC 185. All lie beyond the main optical boundaries of the galaxies and are the most remote clusters yet known in these systems. Radial velocities derived from low resolution spectra are used to argue that the GCs are bound to the dwarfs and are not part of the M31 halo population. Combining PAndAS with UKIRT/WFCAM data, we present the first homogeneous optical and near-IR photometry for the entire GC systems of these dEs. Colour-colour plots and published colour-metallicity relations are employed to constrain GC ages and metallicities. It is demonstrated that the clusters are in general metal poor ([Fe/H] < -1.25 dex), while the ages are more difficult to constrain. The mean (V-I)$_0$ colours of the two GC systems are very similar to those of the GC systems of dEs in the Virgo and Fornax clusters, as well as the extended halo GC population in M31. The new clusters bring the GC specific frequency (S_N) to ~9 in NGC 147 and ~5 in NGC 185, consistent with values found for dEs of similar luminosity residing in a range of environments.

description: In this paper, we investigate the formation and propagation of singularities for the system for one-dimensional Chaplygin gas, which is described by a quasilinear hyperbolic system with linearly degenerate characteristic fields. The phenomena of concentration and the formation of ``$δ$-shock'' waves are identified and analyzed systematically for this system under suitably large initial data. In contrast to the Rankine-Hogoniot conditions for classical shock, the generalized Rankine-Hogoniot conditions for ``$δ$-shock'' waves are established. Finally, it is shown that the total mass and momentum related to the solution are independent of time.

description: Abstract
Terrorism and radicalism have resulted in instability in various aspects of people's lives. Therefore, a synergistic participation among all elements is required. This study analyzes the viewpoints from various aspects of efforts to prevent terrorism and the spread of radicalism in Indonesia. Handling of these crimes often creates problems in society, so preventive efforts are needed to prevent terrorism and understand radicalism. Strategies to deal with the threat of terrorism and radicalism can use two strategies, namely: First, counter-radicalization, namely efforts to instill Indonesian values and non-violent values. The second is deradicalization. The field of deradicalization is aimed at sympathetic, supporter, core and militant groups so as to abandon violent and terror methods in fighting for their mission and moderating radical ideas.

description: The near channel performance of Low Density Parity Check Codes (LDPC) has motivated its wide applications. Iterative decoding of LDPC codes provides significant implementation challenges as the complexity grows with the code size. Recent trends in integrating Multiprocessor System on Chip (MPSoC) with Network on Chip (NoC) gives a modular platform for parallel implementation. This paper presents an implementation platform for decoding LDPC codes based on HeMPS, an open source MPSoC framework based on NoC communication fabric. Reduced minimum sum algorithm is used for decoding LDPC codes and simulations are performed using HeMPS tool. The data rate and speedup factor measured for decoding a rate 1/2 LDPC code characterised by 252x504 parity matrix is presented

description: This paper provides both an introduction to and a detailed overview of the principles and practice of classifier calibration. A well-calibrated classifier correctly quantifies the level of uncertainty or confidence associated with its instance-wise predictions. This is essential for critical applications, optimal decision making, cost-sensitive classification, and for some types of context change. Calibration research has a rich history which predates the birth of machine learning as an academic field by decades. However, a recent increase in the interest on calibration has led to new methods and the extension from binary to the multiclass setting. The space of options and issues to consider is large, and navigating it requires the right set of concepts and tools. We provide both introductory material and up-to-date technical details of the main concepts and methods, including proper scoring rules and other evaluation metrics, visualisation approaches, a comprehensive account of post-hoc calibration methods for binary and multiclass classification, and several advanced topics.

Why Are Chinese Women Underrepresented in Government: A Comparative Analysis of Women's Political Representation in China and Vietnam

subject: Gender equality

subject: Traditional opinions on women

description: Women’s political representation serves as an indicator for measuring governments' commitment to achieving gender equality. This paper aims to investigate the reasons behind China's weak female political representation compared to Vietnam, the world's second-largest economy1, through comparative analysis. As a socialist country with a Confucian influence2, the Vietnamese Communist government improved women's political representation during the revolution by establishing effective national institutions for guaranteeing women's rights, implementing gender quotas, and decentralizing power. In contrast, the Chinese government did not implement a similarly effective program, which led to differences in how women have been incorporated into the political system of the two countries during the revolutionary period. Moreover, public opinion in both countries seems to be influenced to varying degrees by public opinions on traditional women's roles, making the impact of public opinion on women's political representation a widely debated topic.

description: The conditions for fully supersymmetric backgrounds of general N=2 locally supersymmetric theories are derived based on the off-shell superconformal multiplet calculus. This enables the derivation of a non-renormalization theorem for a large class of supersymmetric invariants with higher-derivative couplings. The theorem implies that the invariant and its first order variation must vanish in a fully supersymmetric background. The conjectured relation of one particular higher-derivative invariant with a specific five-dimensional invariant containing the mixed gauge-gravitational Chern-Simons term is confirmed.

description: We report on the discovery of compact, narrow OH line emission from the hydroxl molecule at 1720 MHz toward the extended TeV source J1834-087. The origin of this high energy emission is unknown; it could be powered by one or more candidate neutron stars (leptonic) or by cosmic rays interacting with dense gas (hadronic). The OH emission is detected near the center of J1834-087, coincident with the radio continuum of the supernova remnant W41, and the radial velocity of the line is the same velocity as a giant molecular cloud along the line of sight. We argue that the OH is maser emission stimulated by the interaction of the W41 shock with the molecular cloud. The known correlation between gamma-ray bright supernova remnants and OH masers favors a hadronic interpretation for this high energy emission.

description: The energy of the charge-exchange Anti-analog Giant Dipole Resonance (AGDR) has been calculated for the 208Pb isotope using the state-of-the-art fully self-consistent relativistic proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation based on the Relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model. It is shown that the AGDR centroid energy is very sensitively related to the corresponding neutron-skin thickness. The neutron-skin thickness of 208Pb has been determined very precisely by comparing the theoretical results with the available experimental data on E(AGDR). The result DR(pn)= 0.161(42) agrees nicely with the previous experimental results.

description: Previous research has documented the existence of both online echo chambers and hostile intergroup interactions. In this paper, we explore the relationship between these two phenomena by studying the activity of 5.97M Reddit users and 421M comments posted over 13 years. We examine whether users who are more engaged in echo chambers are more hostile when they comment on other communities. We then create a typology of relationships between political communities based on whether their users are toxic to each other, whether echo chamber-like engagement with these communities is associated with polarization, and on the communities' political leanings. We observe both the echo chamber and hostile intergroup interaction phenomena, but neither holds universally across communities. Contrary to popular belief, we find that polarizing and toxic speech is more dominant between communities on the same, rather than opposing, sides of the political spectrum, especially on the left; however, this mainly points to the collective targeting of political outgroups.

description: In dieser Arbeit untersuche ich die Frage, ob die liberale Konzeptualisierung des Politischen adäquat ist, um genuin politische Kategorien wie Macht, Konflikt und Ungerechtigkeit zu erfassen. Ich identifiziere diese drei Kategorien unter Bezugnahme auf die nicht-ideale Theoriebildung, die realistische Kritik sowie die feministische soziale Standpunkttheorie. Ich argumentiere, dass das Rawlsianische Paradigma liberaler Theoriebildung weder genuin politische Kategorien wie politische Macht und Konflikte, noch den Begriff der Ungerechtigkeit einschließlich ihrer spezifisch epistemischen Dimension konzeptuell erfassen kann. Ich zeige, dass Judith Shklars konfliktiver Liberalismus sowohl konzeptuell als auch normativ in der Lage ist, diesen drei Herausforderungen der liberalen Theoriebildung produktiv zu begegnen und die genannten Kategorien zu konzeptualisieren. Ich zeige, dass Shklar eine genuin politische liberale Theorie formuliert, die politische Macht sowie deren notwendig asymmetrische Verteilung zum Ausgangspunkt nimmt. Die aus diesem Machtgefälle resultierenden Positionen politischer Machtlosigkeit und Marginalisierung führen wiederum zu einer konfliktiven politischen Dynamik. Ich zeige, dass Shklars Orientierung an der Perspektive der Marginalisierten Gemeinsamkeiten mit der sozialen Standpunkttheorie aufweist, und ihr Ansatz die situierte Epistemologie der Ungerechtigkeit integrieren kann, weshalb ich diesen als besonders emanzipativ verteidige. Daher schließe ich, dass Shklars konfliktiver Liberalismus den eingangs genannten Herausforderungen begegnet und eine adäquate liberale Theorie des Politischen darstellt.

description: In logics for the strategic reasoning the main challenge is represented by their verification in contexts of imperfect information and perfect recall. In this work, we show a technique to approximate the verification of Alternating-time Temporal Logic (ATL*) under imperfect information and perfect recall, which is known to be undecidable. Given a model M and a formula $φ$, we propose a verification procedure that generates sub-models of M in which each sub-model M' satisfies a sub-formula $φ'$ of $φ$ and the verification of $φ'$ in M' is decidable. Then, we use CTL* model checking to provide a verification result of $φ$ on M. We prove that our procedure is in the same class of complexity of ATL* model checking under perfect information and perfect recall, we present a tool that implements our procedure, and provide experimental results.

description: Guatemala has among the largest numbers of indigenous people living within its borders in Central America. With wealth coming from tourism and exports concentrated mainly around Guatemala City, descendants of the ancient Maya live in small, ethnically distinct villages where locals struggle to preserve their heritage. Isolated in the valleys between the Cuchumatanes Mountains, the Ixil Triangle is home to a unique community of Ixil people who have retained their ancient way of life. Men tend to be farmers, women weave using technologies passed down from generation to generation, and few have a strong grasp of Spanish as a second language. Yet despite the isolation, tensions and instability in modern-day Guatemala have struck this community hard.
A startling number of the indigenous citizens of Guatemala, who make up 40% of the population, have no access to education, and many have no voice in the political process, as they lack the financial means to pay to become registered citizens. The Ixil also face economic pressures, as well as the repercussions of a bloody civil war that ended in 1996, taking an entire generation of men as casualties.
Faced with the prospect of their disappearing culture, a small group of widows in the village of San Juan Cotzal have welcomed the help of European volunteers, and formed a weaving co-op. They take orders from distributors in more established tourist stops like Guatemala City and Antigua, utilizing age-old technologies to make carpets, bags, shawls, and other products that volunteers then deliver to stores around the country. Building upon the business skills they gain by maintaining the co-op, the widows are both politically and economically active, taking initiative on behalf of their community. Future projects include organizing fundraisers to equip each widow’s home with proper stoves and developing an improved outreach strategy to goods distributors in the larger cities. Defying heavy odds, the empowered women of Ixil are finding local ways to integrate their heritage into the global landscape.

description: We develop a model for investigating the impact of rainstorm variability on the formation of banded vegetation patterns in dryland ecosystems. Water input, during rare rainstorms, is modeled as an instantaneous kick to the soil water. The redistribution, from surface water to soil moisture, accounts for the impact of vegetation on infiltration rate and downslope overland flow speed. These two positive feedbacks between water and biomass distributions act on the fast timescales of rain storms. During dry periods, a classic reaction-diffusion framework is used for the slow processes associated with soil water and biomass. This pulsed precipitation model predicts that the preferred spacing of the vegetation bands is determined by the characteristic distance that a storm pulse of water travels overland before infiltrating into the soil. In this way, the vegetation pattern is determined by the fast ecohydrological processes and may be attuned with its dryland precipitation pattern. We demonstrate how this modeling framework, suited for stochastic rain inputs, can be used to investigate possible collapse of a dryland pattern-forming ecosystem under different precipitation patterns with identical low annual mean. Model simulations suggest, for instance, that shorter rainy seasons and greater variability in storm depth may both hasten ecosystem collapse.

description: The doctoral thesis analyzes the evolution of the supervision of financial institutions in European Union area from the creation of the European Economic Community until the establishment of the Single Supervisory Mechanism. Moreover the characteristics of the new supervisory mechanism are presented and issues that arise from its implementation and the legal protection of persons affected by its actions are set out. Since the intensity of the judicial review by the Court of Justice of the European Union of the actions taken by the European Central Bank is highly disputed, already from the field of monetary policy, some first conclusions are drawn as for the intensity of the judicial review of the action taken by the ECB as a supervisory authority, in the light of the first CJEU judgements on supervisory measures taken by the ECB.

description: We investigate the chiral electric separation effect, where an axial current is induced by an electric field in the presence of both vector and axial chemical potentials, in a strongly coupled plasma via the Sakai-Sugimoto model with an $U(1)_R\times U(1)_L$ symmetry. By introducing different chemical potentials in $U(1)_R$ and $U(1)_L$ sectors, we compute the axial direct current (DC) conductivity stemming from the chiral current and the normal DC conductivity. We find that the axial conductivity is approximately proportional to the product of the axial and vector chemical potentials for arbitrary magnitudes of the chemical potentials. We also evaluate the axial alternating current (AC) conductivity induced by a frequency-dependent electric field, where the oscillatory behavior with respect to the frequency is observed.

An Enriched Constitutive Model for Fracture Propagation Analysis using the Material Point Method

description: We develop a novel constitutive modeling approach for the analysis of fracture propagation in quasi-brittle materials using the Material Point Method. The kinematics of constitutive models is enriched with an additional mode of localized deformation to take into account the strain discontinuity once cracking has occurred. The crack details therefore can be stored at material point level and there is no need to enrich the kinematics of finite elements to capture the localization caused by fracturing processes. This enhancement also removes the drawback of classical smeared crack approach in producing unphysical snapping back constitutive responses when the spatial resolution is not fine enough. All these facilitate the implementation of the new approach in the Material Point Method for analysis of large scale problems. Numerical examples of fracture propagation are used to demonstrate the effectiveness and potentials of the new approach.

description: Cybersecurity is the security cornerstone of digital transformation of the power grid and construction of new power systems. The traditional network security situation quantification method only analyzes from the perspective of network performance, ignoring the impact of various power application services on the security situation, so the quantification results cannot fully reflect the power information network risk state. This study proposes a method for quantifying security situation of the power information network based on the evolutionary neural network. First, the security posture system architecture is designed by analyzing the business characteristics of power information network applications. Second, combining the importance of power application business, the spatial element index system of coupled interconnection is established from three dimensions of network reliability, threat, and vulnerability. Then, the BP neural network optimized by the genetic evolutionary algorithm is incorporated into the element index calculation process, and the quantitative model of security posture of the power information network based on the evolutionary neural network is constructed. Finally, a simulation experiment environment is built according to a power sector network topology, and the effectiveness and robustness of the method proposed in the study are verified.

description: Maldacena and Susskind have proposed a correspondence between wormholes and entanglement, dubbed ER=EPR. We study this in the context of 3d topological quantum field theory, where we show that the formation of a wormhole is the same process as creating a particle-antiparticle pair. A key feature of the ER=EPR proposal is that certain apparently entangled degrees of freedom turn out to be the same. We name this phenomenon "fake entanglement", and show how it arises in our topological quantum field theory model.

description: Online courses, as a pedagogical approach to teaching, boomed during this Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic era. Universities shifted from traditional face to face classes to online distance learning due to the cause of the pandemic. This study aimed to determine how effective an online course is in learning a programming course. The study utilized mixed method research applied through a validated survey questionnaire consisting of closed and open ended questions. Python programming was the course selected to undergo the study and underwent an evaluation to determine the students' responses. Student respondents are from Bulacan State University, a state university in the Philippines, under the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology program. Based on their responses, the students found that the online Python programming was Very Effective, with an overall mean of 4.49. This result shows that students found the online course effective, provided the proper course design and content, allowed them to spend enough time finishing tasks, and provided communication and interaction with their instructor and fellow students. Additionally, students gave overwhelmingly positive responses when asked what their instructors had done well on the course delivery and provided insightful and constructive comments for further enhancement and delivery of the course. This study found that most students strongly agreed and believed in the effectiveness of delivering the Python Programming course asynchronously. With such positive results from the student's perspective and evaluation, the course can be enhanced to continue providing quality education at Bulacan State University.

description: In this paper we describe a general method to derive formulas relating the gap probability of some classical determinantal random point process (Airy, Pearcey and Hermite) with the gap probability of the processes related to the same kernels with "wanderers", "inliers" and "outliers". In this way, we generalize the Painlevé-like formula found by Baik for the Baik-Ben Arous-Péché distribution to many different cases, both in the one and multi-time case. The method is not ad-hoc and relies upon the notion of discrete Schlesinger transformations for Riemann-Hilbert problems.

description: Origami metamaterials are known to display highly tunable Poisson's ratio values depending on their folded state. Most studies on the Poisson effects in deployable origami tessellations are restricted to theory and simulation. Experimental realization of the desired Poisson effects in origami metamaterials requires special attention to the boundary conditions to enable deployable nonlinear deformations that give rise to tunability. In this work, we present a novel experimental setup suitable to study the Poisson effects in 2D origami tessellations that undergo simultaneous deformations in both the applied and transverse directions. The setup comprises a gripping mechanism, which we call a Saint-Venant fixture, to eliminate Saint-Venant end effects during uniaxial testing experiment. Using this setup, we conduct Poisson's ratio measurements of the Morph origami pattern whose configuration space combines features of the Miura-ori and Eggbox parent patterns. We experimentally observe the Poisson's ratio sign switching capability of the Morph pattern, along with its ability to display either completely positive or completely negative values of Poisson's ratio by virtue of topological transformations. To demonstrate the versatility of the novel setup we also perform experiments on the standard Miura-ori and the standard Eggbox patterns. Our results demonstrate the agreement between the theory, the simulations, and the experiments on the Poisson's ratio measurement and its tunability in origami metamaterials. The proposed experimental technique can be adopted for investigating other tunable properties of origami metamaterials in static and in dynamic regimes, such as finite-strain Poisson's ratios, elastic thermal expansion, and wave propagation control.

Structure of sunspot penumbral filaments: a remarkable uniformity of properties

description: The sunspot penumbra comprises numerous thin, radially elongated filaments that are central for heat transport within the penumbra, but whose structure is still not clear. To investigate the fine-scale structure of these filaments, we perform a depth-dependent inversion of spectropolarimetric data of a sunspot very close to solar disk center obtained by Hinode (SOT/SP). We have used a recently developed spatially coupled 2D inversion scheme which allows us to analyze the fine structure of individual penumbral filaments up to the diffraction limit of the telescope. Filaments of different sizes in all parts of penumbra display very similar magnetic field strengths, inclinations and velocity patterns. The similarities allowed us to average all these filaments and to extract the physical properties common to all of them. This average filament shows upflows associated with an upward pointing field at its inner, umbral end and along its axis, downflows along the lateral edge and strong downflows in the outer end associated with a nearly vertical, strong and downward pointing field. The upflowing plasma is significantly hotter than the downflowing plasma. The hot, tear-shaped head of the averaged filament can be associated with a penumbral grain. The central part of the filament shows nearly horizontal fields with strengths of ~1kG. The field above the filament converges, whereas a diverging trend is seen in the deepest layers near the head of the filament. We put forward a unified observational picture of a sunspot penumbral filament. It is consistent with such a filament being a magneto-convective cell, in line with recent MHD simulations. The uniformity of its properties over the penumbra sets constraints on penumbral models and simulations. The complex and inhomogeneous structure of the filament provides a natural explanation for a number of long-running controversies in the literature.

description: Carbon spheres were synthesized by hydrothermal method and combined with aminated sodium lignosulfonate to form carbon-lignin based adsorbent. The content of carbon spheres, triethylenetetramine and sodium lignosulfonate was optimized by orthogonal experiment to obtain the adsorbent with the highest adsorption capacity. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The diameter of carbon spheres synthesized by hydrothermal method is about 1 μm-2 μm, and the composite of sodium lignosulfonate turns into layered structure. The adsorption rate of 0.8 g L−1 adsorbent to 100 mg L−1 Cr(III) can reach 99% under neutral conditions. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms show that the pseudo second order kinetics and Langmuir model are most suitable for the adsorption experiment. The regeneration of carbon-lignin based adsorbent shows that it can be reused in the adsorption process.
