description: We investigate how a magnetic field induces one-dimensional edge channels when the two-dimensional surface states of three-dimensional topological insulators become gapped. The Hall effect, measured by contacting those channels, remains quantized even in situations where the θ-term in the bulk and the associated surface Hall conductivities, σ_{xy}^S, are not quantized due to the breaking of time-reversal symmetry. The quantization arises as the θ-term changes by \pm 2 πn along a loop around n edge channels. Model calculations show how an interplay of orbital and Zeeman effects leads to quantum Hall transitions, where channels get redistributed along the edges of the crystal. The network of edges opens new possibilities to investigate the coupling of edge channels.

description: Multi-adaptive Galerkin methods are extensions of the standard continuous and discontinuous Galerkin methods for the numerical solution of initial value problems for ordinary or partial differential equations. In particular, the multi-adaptive methods allow individual and adaptive time steps to be used for different components or in different regions of space. We present algorithms for efficient multi-adaptive time-stepping, including the recursive construction of time slabs and adaptive time step selection. We also present data structures for efficient storage and interpolation of the multi-adaptive solution. The efficiency of the proposed algorithms and data structures is demonstrated for a series of benchmark problems.

description: The symmetries of the Standard Model give rise to the forces that act on particles, and the corresponding force mediators. While the Standard Model is an excellent description of particle interactions, it has known limitations; it is therefore important to search for new physics beyond the Standard Model, potentially indicating as-of-yet unknown symmetries of nature. The ATLAS and CMS collaborations have detailed physics programmes, involving a large number of searches for new physics in hadronic final states. As the start of Run 3 of the LHC is imminent, now is a good time to review the progress made and the status of hadronic searches during Run 2 at a centre-of-mass collision energy of 13 TeV. This review provides an overview of the motivations and challenges of hadronic final states at the LHC, followed by an introduction to jet reconstruction, calibration, and tagging. Three classes of searches for new physics in hadronic final states are discussed: di-jet searches, searches for missing transverse momentum in association with another object, and searches for hadronic di-boson resonances. The complementarity of these different analysis strategies is discussed, emphasising the importance of a varied hadronic physics programme in the search for new physics.

description: In this paper we develop a tractable framework for SINR analysis in downlink heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) with flexible cell association policies. The HCN is modeled as a multi-tier cellular network where each tier's base stations (BSs) are randomly located and have a particular transmit power, path loss exponent, spatial density, and bias towards admitting mobile users. For example, as compared to macrocells, picocells would usually have lower transmit power, higher path loss exponent (lower antennas), higher spatial density (many picocells per macrocell), and a positive bias so that macrocell users are actively encouraged to use the more lightly loaded picocells. In the present paper we implicitly assume all base stations have full queues; future work should relax this. For this model, we derive the outage probability of a typical user in the whole network or a certain tier, which is equivalently the downlink SINR cumulative distribution function. The results are accurate for all SINRs, and their expressions admit quite simple closed-forms in some plausible special cases. We also derive the \emph{average ergodic rate} of the typical user, and the \emph{minimum average user throughput} -- the smallest value among the average user throughputs supported by one cell in each tier. We observe that neither the number of BSs or tiers changes the outage probability or average ergodic rate in an interference-limited full-loaded HCN with unbiased cell association (no biasing), and observe how biasing alters the various metrics.

“Un Violador en tu camino”- A Global Feminist Anthem: How the feminist movement in Latin America and notably Chile evolved to facilitate the rise of digital and performance activism in the face of ongoing inequality and women’s rights issues
Creators: Nicosia Miller
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2021

The feminist movement emerged as a unified movement in Latin America in the 1960’s and 1970’s amidst ongoing political protests. The collaboration of feminist scholars and grass-roots leaders created a bridge to meet the needs of a diverse group of women, raise their consciousness, and educate them on their potential in order to lobby for increased rights. The women’s movement started with innovative events like communal kitchens and spread through the media of its time with pamphlets. Though the experience of Latin American women and the issues they faced were heterogenous, meetings held at conferences permitted these women to dialogue with each other and determine their common issues and solutions. As the movement progressed, it began to explicitly become more inclusive as it recognized the rights of racialized, queer and other disenfranchised women. Though the efforts of the progenitors of the Latin American Feminist movement have made many strides, there is much work to do as femicide and other types of violence against women are prevalent. To combat these issues presently, performance activism, as well as the use of digital media, have been effective tools. Namely, the feminist collective Lastesis has used the momentum of the already existing social movements and protests in Chile to implement performance activism and utilize social media to create a global protest movement. Though the thesis generally covers the entire region of Latin America, it emphasizes the history, context and contemporary experiences of Chile and Chileans. It also explores the history of the feminist movement in Latin America, the use of social media and performance activism to propel social movements by youth and feminist organizations and how the song by the Collective Lastesis, “Un Violador en tu camino”, rose to popularity. Since the protest song by Lastesis is relatively new, information and research about the movement is timely and consistently increasing. Case studies, media reports, and research from social media platforms directly have been the primary source of data for this thesis. The results of my research have revealed that the feminist movement in Latin America is dynamic, and that translating complex feminist theory into language that is accessible, both in production and in medium to the general public, has created a simplicity that allowed Lastesis to create a vehicle for change. The song can be adapted to various regions and individuals as the negative experiences of women and other marginalized groups are unfortunately universal. The work of Lastesis reveals the potential for social movements to reach a global audience and the benefits of mobilizing both offline and online.

description: During the growth of metal thin films on dielectric substrates at a given deposition temperature T, the film's morphology is conditioned by the magnitude and asymmetry of up- and downhill diffusion. Any severe change of this mechanism leads to a growth instability, which induces an alteration of the thin film morphology. In order to study this mechanism, ultra-thin Pt films were deposited via pulsed laser deposition (PLD) onto yttria-stabilized-zirconia single crystals at different deposition temperatures. The morphological evolution of Pt thin films has been investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and standard image analysis techniques. The experimentally obtained morphologies are compared to simulated thin film structures resulting from a two-dimensional kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) approach. Two main observations have been made: i) Thin Pt films deposited onto zirconia undergo a growth transition from two-dimensional to three-dimensional growth at T > 573 K. The growth transition and related morphological changes are a function of the deposition temperature. ii) A critical cluster size of i\ast = 4 in combination with an asymmetric Ehrlich-Schwoebel (ES) barrier favoring the uphill diffusion of atoms allows for a computational reproduction of the experimentally obtained film morphologies.

description: The real magnetic fields (MFs) acting on the graphene can induce flat real Landau levels (LLs). As an analogy, strains in graphene can produce significant pseudo MFs, triggering the appearance of dispersive pseudo LLs. By analyzing the low-energy effective Hamiltonian, we introduce the concept of the effective orbital MFs to integrate the real MFs and pseudo MFs. Accordingly, we obtain the complex LLs which incorporate the real LLs and pseudo LLs, and calculate the related transport properties. These concepts enable us to uncover the mechanisms driving the fragility of pseudo LLs against disorders and dephasing, proving that tuning the real MFs and Fermi energy can effectively improve the robust performances. Furthermore, the tunability of the valley-polarized currents is also studied, opening up new possibilities for the design of valleytronics devices.

description: The main obJective of this thesis is to develop a typology of the Kintampo cultural assemblage based upon materials obtained from the Kintampo culture levels, and Kintampo-related surface finds of Daboya, Northern Ghana. The Kintampo culture is believed to represent the earliest farming village communities that inhabited the savanna woodland belt of Ghana. Ever since the culture was identified and defined, there has not been a detailed analysis of the associated artifacts and this has limited the reconstruction of the processes of change to and within the culture. The classification of Daboya Kintampo artifacts can serve as a framework for detailed comparative studies of the culture with other early agricultural village communities in West Africa. The thesis is divided into six chapters. The first is a revival of evidence for the earliest farming villages in West Africa including information on environmental change associated with them. Chapter 2 consists of a brief geography of Daboya, a description of my research at Daboya and summaries materials at of data on other the site. The pits that yielded Kintampo classification of Daboya Kintampo and Kintampo-related pottery is presented in chapter three while the rest of the archaeological finds are analysed in the fourth. Chapter 5 has two sections, the first being a synthesis of the information obtained on the Kintampo occupation. The second section is a comparison of the Daboya Kintampo information with data from other excavated Kintampo culture sites. In the final chapter, the relationships of the Kintampo culture in time and space are evaluated based upon the data from Daboya, other Kintampo culture sites, and West Africa at large.

description: Whole Slide Image (WSI) analysis is a powerful method to facilitate the diagnosis of cancer in tissue samples. Automating this diagnosis poses various issues, most notably caused by the immense image resolution and limited annotations. WSIs commonly exhibit resolutions of 100Kx100K pixels. Annotating cancerous areas in WSIs on the pixel level is prohibitively labor-intensive and requires a high level of expert knowledge. Multiple instance learning (MIL) alleviates the need for expensive pixel-level annotations. In MIL, learning is performed on slide-level labels, in which a pathologist provides information about whether a slide includes cancerous tissue. Here, we propose Self-ViT-MIL, a novel approach for classifying and localizing cancerous areas based on slide-level annotations, eliminating the need for pixel-wise annotated training data. Self-ViT- MIL is pre-trained in a self-supervised setting to learn rich feature representation without relying on any labels. The recent Vision Transformer (ViT) architecture builds the feature extractor of Self-ViT-MIL. For localizing cancerous regions, a MIL aggregator with global attention is utilized. To the best of our knowledge, Self-ViT- MIL is the first approach to introduce self-supervised ViTs in MIL-based WSI analysis tasks. We showcase the effectiveness of our approach on the common Camelyon16 dataset. Self-ViT-MIL surpasses existing state-of-the-art MIL-based approaches in terms of accuracy and area under the curve (AUC).
Image processing challenges in weak gravitational lensing

description: The field of weak gravitational lensing, which measures the basic properties of the Universe by studying the way that light from distant galaxies is perturbed as it travels towards us, is a very active field in astronomy. This short article presents a broad overview of the field, including some of the important questions that cosmologists are trying to address, such as understanding the nature of dark energy and dark matter. To do this, there is an increasing feeling within the weak lensing community that other disciplines, such as computer science, machine learning, signal processing and image processing, have the expertise that would bring enormous advantage if channelled into lensing studies. To illustrate this point, the article below outlines some of the key steps in a weak lensing analysis chain. The challenges are distinct at each step, but each could benefit from ideas developed in the signal processing domain. This article also gives a brief overview of current and planned lensing experiments that will soon bring about an influx of data sets that are substantially larger than those analysed to date. It is, therefore, inevitable that current techniques are likely to be insufficient, thus leading to an exciting era where new methods will become crucial for the continued success of the field.

description: Several emerging petascale architectures use energy-efficient processors with vectorized computational units and in-order thread processing. On these architectures the sustained performance of streaming numerical kernels, ubiquitous in the solution of partial differential equations, represents a challenge despite the regularity of memory access. Sophisticated optimization techniques are required to fully utilize the Central Processing Unit (CPU). We propose a new method for constructing streaming numerical kernels using a high-level assembly synthesis and optimization framework. We describe an implementation of this method in Python targeting the IBM Blue Gene/P supercomputer's PowerPC 450 core. This paper details the high-level design, construction, simulation, verification, and analysis of these kernels utilizing a subset of the CPU's instruction set. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach by implementing several three-dimensional stencil kernels over a variety of cached memory scenarios and analyzing the mechanically scheduled variants, including a 27-point stencil achieving a 1.7x speedup over the best previously published results.

Nonlinear and spin-glass susceptibilities of three site-diluted systems
Creators: name: Fernández, Julio F.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The nonlinear magnetic $χ_{3}$ and spin-glass $χ_{sg}$ susceptibilities in zero applied field are obtained, from tempered Monte Carlo simulations, for three different spin glasses (SGs) of Ising spins with quenched site disorder. We find that the relation $-T^3χ_3=χ_{sg}-2/3$ ($T$ is the temperature), which holds for Edwards-Anderson SGs, is approximately fulfilled in canonical-like SGs. For nearest neighbor antiferromagnetic interactions, on a 0.4 fraction of all sites in fcc lattices, as well as for spatially disordered Ising dipolar (DID) systems, $-T^3χ_3$ and $χ_{sg}$ appear to diverge in the same manner at the critical temperature $T_{sg}$. However, $-T^3χ_3$ is smaller than $ χ_{sg}$ by over two orders of magnitude in the diluted fcc system. In DID systems, $-T^3χ_3/χ_{sg}$ is very sensitive to the systems aspect ratio. Whereas near $T_{sg}$, $χ_{sg}$ varies by approximately a factor of 2 as system shape varies from cubic to long-thin-needle shapes, $χ_3$ sweeps over some four decades.

Chebyshev pseudosite matrix product state approach for the spectral functions of electron-phonon coupling systems

description: The electron-phonon ($e$-ph) coupling system often has a large number of phonon degrees of freedom, whose spectral functions are numerically difficult to compute using matrix product state (MPS) formalisms. To solve this problem, we propose a new and practical method that combines the Chebyshev MPS and the pseudosite density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm. The Chebyshev vector is represented by a pseudosite MPS with global $U(1)$ fermion symmetry, which maps $2^{N_p}$ bosonic degrees of freedom onto $N_p$ pseudosites, each with two states. This approach can handle arbitrary $e$-ph coupling Hamiltonians where pseudosite DMRG performs efficiently. We use this method to study the spectral functions of the doped extended Hubbard-Holstein model in a regime of strong Coulomb repulsion, which has not been studied extensively before. Key features of the excitation spectra are captured at a modest computational cost. Our results show that weak extended $e$-ph couplings can increase the spectral weight of the holon-folding branch at low phonon frequencies, in agreement with angle-resolved photoemission observations on one-dimensional (1D) cuprates.

description: We study the dynamic and radiative efficiency of conversion of kinetic-to-thermal/magnetic energy by internal shocks in relativistic magnetized outflows. A parameter study of a large number of collisions of cylindrical shells is performed. We explore how, while keeping the total flow luminosity constant, the variable fluid magnetization influences the efficiency and find that the interaction of shells in a mildly magnetized jet yields higher dynamic, but lower radiative efficiency than in a non-magnetized flow. A multi-wavelength radiative signature of different shell magnetization is computed assuming that relativistic particles are accelerated at internal shocks.

Translation, Immigration, and Community Engagement: An Exploration of Edmonton Immigrant Services Association’s (EISA) Community Translation Practices and the Creation of an In-House Spanish-English Glossary of Terms
Creators: Monika Pitonak
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2022

My thesis project involved working with the Edmonton Immigrant Services Association (EISA) to create a searchable Spanish-English glossary of terms based on EISA’s (Edmonton Immigrant Services Association) Language Bank community translator needs. My approach to this project was community service-oriented, as I created a translation resource to aid community volunteer translators working with EISA’s Language Bank. I created the searchable Spanish-English glossary with the help of a glossary previously compiled by Dr. Ann De León and SPAN 405 CSL students in December 2012, a corpus of recently translated documents, feedback from EISA’s community translation team that was obtained through a survey, and insights from Amanda Yang, EISA’s Language Bank coordinator. In my thesis, I explore existing literature about community translation and document translation, explain the methodology and process I used in the creation of the glossary, and discuss the ways in which my findings and experience relate to community service-learning, the role of proofreaders, and current challenges and possible solutions within the domain of document translation. I situate my project, findings, and analysis within EISA’s particular inhouse practices, as well as within community translation and document translation practices in Edmonton and within the general scope of community translation and document translation worldwide.

description: Circumambient and galactic-scale environments are intermittently present around black holes that reside in active galactic nuclei. As supermassive black holes impart energy on their host galaxy, so the galactic environment affects the dynamics of solar-mass objects around black holes and the gravitational waves emitted from non-vacuum asymmetric binaries. Only recently an exact general-relativistic solution has been found that describes a Schwarzschild black hole immersed in a dark matter halo of the Hernquist type. We perform an extensive analysis of generic geodesics delving in such non-vacuum spacetimes and compare our results with those obtained in Schwarzschild, as well as calculate their gravitational-wave emission. Our findings indicate that the radial and polar oscillation frequency ratios descend deeper into the strong gravity region as the compactness of the halo increases. This translates to a redshift of non-vacuum geodesics and their resulting waveforms with respect to the vacuum ones. We calculate the overlap between waveforms resulting from Schwarzschild and non-vacuum geometries and find that it decreases as the halo compactness grows, meaning that dark matter environments should be distinguishable by space-borne detectors. For compact environments, we find that the apsidal precession is strongly affected due to the gravitational pull of dark matter; the orbit's axis can rotate in the opposite direction as that of the orbital motion, leading to a retrograde precession drift that depends on the halo mass, as opposed to the typical prograde precession transpiring in galactic-scale environments. Gravitational waves in retrograde-to-prograde alterations demonstrate transient frequency phenomena around critical non-precessing turning points, thus they may serve as `smoking guns' for the presence of compact dark matter environments around supermassive black holes.

description: In this article, we review briefly recent progress made in realizing local(ized around a mobile space-time filling D3-brane in) D3/D7 mu-Split Supersymmetry in (the large volume limit of Type IIB) String Theory (compactified on Swiss-Cheese Calabi-Yau orientifolds) as well as obtaining a 125 GeV (light) Higgs in the same set up. We also discuss obtaining the geometric Kaehler potential (and hence the Ricci-Flat metric) for the Swiss-Cheese Calabi-Yau in the large volume limit using the Donaldson's algorithm and intuition from GLSM-based calculations - we present new results for Swiss-Cheese Calabi-Yau (used in the set up) metrics at points finitely away from the "big" divisor.

description: Although the precise microscopic knowledge of van der Waals interactions is crucial for understanding bonding in weakly bonded layered compounds, very little quantitative information on the strength of interlayer interaction in these materials is available, either from experiments or simulations. Here, using many-body perturbation and advanced density-functional theory techniques, we calculate the interlayer binding and exfoliation energies for a large number of layered compounds and show that, independent of the electronic structure of the material, the energies for most systems are around 20 meV/Å$^2$. This universality explains the successful exfoliation of a wide class of layered materials to produce two-dimensional systems, and furthers our understanding the properties of layered compounds in general.

description: State-of-the-art approaches in computer vision heavily rely on sufficiently large training datasets. For real-world applications, obtaining such a dataset is usually a tedious task. In this paper, we present a fully automated pipeline to generate a synthetic dataset for instance segmentation in four steps. In contrast to existing work, our pipeline covers every step from data acquisition to the final dataset. We first scrape images for the objects of interest from popular image search engines and since we rely only on text-based queries the resulting data comprises a wide variety of images. Hence, image selection is necessary as a second step. This approach of image scraping and selection relaxes the need for a real-world domain-specific dataset that must be either publicly available or created for this purpose. We employ an object-agnostic background removal model and compare three different methods for image selection: Object-agnostic pre-processing, manual image selection and CNN-based image selection. In the third step, we generate random arrangements of the object of interest and distractors on arbitrary backgrounds. Finally, the composition of the images is done by pasting the objects using four different blending methods. We present a case study for our dataset generation approach by considering parcel segmentation. For the evaluation we created a dataset of parcel photos that were annotated automatically. We find that (1) our dataset generation pipeline allows a successful transfer to real test images (Mask AP 86.2), (2) a very accurate image selection process - in contrast to human intuition - is not crucial and a broader category definition can help to bridge the domain gap, (3) the usage of blending methods is beneficial compared to simple copy-and-paste. We made our full code for scraping, image composition and training publicly available at https://a-nau.github.io/parcel2d.

description: Understanding energy transport in quantum systems is crucial for an understanding of light-harvesting in nature, and for the creation of new quantum technologies. Open quantum systems theory has been successfully applied to predict the existence of environmental noise-assisted quantum transport (ENAQT) as a widespread phenomenon occurring in biological and artificial systems. That work has been primarily focused on several `canonical' structures, from simple chains, rings and crystals of varying dimensions, to well-studied light-harvesting complexes. Studying those particular systems has produced specific assumptions about ENAQT, including the notion of a single, ideal, range of environmental coupling rates that improve energy transport. In this paper we show that a consistent subset of physically modelled transport networks can have at least two ENAQT peaks in their steady state transport efficiency.

Classical Representation of a Quantum System at Equilibrium
Creators: name: Dufty, James W.
name: Dutta, Sandipan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A quantum system at equilibrium is represented by a corresponding classical system, chosen to reproduce the thermodynamic and structural properties. The objective is to develop a means for exploiting strong coupling classical methods (e.g., MD, integral equations, DFT) to describe quantum systems. The classical system has an effective temperature, local chemical potential, and pair interaction that are defined by requiring equivalence of the grand potential and its functional derivatives with respect to the external and pair potentials for the classical and quantum systems. Practical inversion of this mapping for the classical properties is effected via the hypernetted chain approximation, leading to representations as functionals of the quantum pair correlation function. As an illustration, the parameters of the classical system are determined approximately such that ideal gas and weak coupling RPA limits are preserved.
