description: Objective: There are a variety of maternal or fetal conditions that require late preterm or early term delivery. In cases where early delivery is indicated, optimal management is not always clear. Historically, obstetricians used amniocentesis to document fetal lung maturity, but recently, many have transitioned to administration of antenatal corticosteroids (ACS). The objective of this study was to compare neonatal outcomes between women undergoing amniocentesis or receiving ACS prior to scheduled cesarean delivery (CD) less than 39 weeks. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of women undergoing scheduled CD by one maternal-fetal medicine practice between 36 and 38 6/7 weeks, from 2005 to 2017. We identified women who underwent amniocentesis or received ACS within 2 weeks prior to delivery. Neonatal outcomes were compared between the two groups, with the primary outcome being neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission. Results: A total of 502 women were included, of whom 313 (62.4%) underwent amniocentesis and 189 (37.6%) received ACS. Overall, 55 (11.0%) of neonates were admitted to the NICU. NICU admission was not significantly different between groups (11.8 versus 9.5%, p=.46). This held true after adjusting for gestational age and other differences in baseline characteristics. There were no significant differences between groups for all other neonatal outcomes, including NICU admission for respiratory indications, respiratory support, neonatal greater than maternal length of stay, low Apgar scores, and neonatal death. Rates of hypoglycemia were low and not significantly different between groups (2.2% in the amniocentesis group versus 0.5% in the ACS group, p=.27). Diabetes was the only covariate significantly associated with NICU admission (aOR 3.19, 95% CI 1.35, 7.54). Conclusions: In women undergoing scheduled CD between 36 and 38 6/7 weeks, administration of ACS is associated with similar neonatal outcomes compared to amniocentesis. This supports the current notion that outcomes are similar with ACS compared to amniocentesis for late preterm and early term deliveries. Brief rationale: The objective of this study was to compare neonatal outcomes between women undergoing amniocentesis or receiving antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) prior to scheduled cesarean delivery (CD) less than 39 weeks. We found that in women undergoing scheduled cesarean delivery between 36 and 38 6/7 weeks, administration of antenatal corticosteroids is associated with similar neonatal outcomes compared to amniocentesis.

description: Topological insulators are studied via tight-binding approximations of longitudinally driven photonic lattices with three lattice sites per unit cell. Two cases are considered in detail: Lieb and Kagome lattices. The lattice is decomposed into three sublattices each of which are allowed move independently of one another. Emphasis is placed on periodic driving induced by laser-etched helical coils along the direction of propagation. The linear Floquet bands are constructed for various inter-sublattice rotation patterns such as: different radii, different frequency, phase offset and quasi one-dimensional motion. Depending on the nature of the band structure, bulk spectral bands with nonzero Chern number are found to support topologically protected edge states which can move unidirectionally. In this case, the modes move scatter-free around defects due to underlying topological protection. Intriguing mode dynamics are found including bi-directional topological modes and bulk-edge leakage i.e. excitation of bulk modes at a defect for edge modes with dispersion frequencies nearby the bulk bands. Finally, certain nonlinear edge modes are also found to propagate unidirectionally and scatter-free around lattice defects.

description: For a finite group $G$, a $G$-crossed braided fusion category is $G$-graded fusion category with additional structures, namely a $G$-action and a $G$-braiding. We develop the notion of $G$-crossed braided zesting: an explicit method for constructing new $G$-crossed braided fusion categories from a given one by means of cohomological data associated with the invertible objects in the category and grading group $G$. This is achieved by adapting a similar construction for (braided) fusion categories recently described by the authors. All $G$-crossed braided zestings of a given category $\mathcal{C}$ are $G$-extensions of their trivial component and can be interpreted in terms of the homotopy-based description of Etingof, Nikshych and Ostrik. In particular, we explicitly describe which $G$-extensions correspond to $G$-crossed braided zestings.

description: As social networks are constantly changing and evolving, methods to analyze dynamic social networks are becoming more important in understanding social trends. However, due to the restrictions imposed by the social network service providers, the resources available to fetch the entire contents of a social network are typically very limited. As a result, analysis of dynamic social network data requires maintaining an approximate copy of the social network for each time period, locally. In this paper, we study the problem of dynamic network and text fetching with limited probing capacities, for identifying and maintaining influential users as the social network evolves. We propose an algorithm to probe the relationships (required for global influence computation) as well as posts (required for topic-based influence computation) of a limited number of users during each probing period, based on the influence trends and activities of the users. We infer the current network based on the newly probed user data and the last known version of the network maintained locally. Additionally, we propose to use link prediction methods to further increase the accuracy of our network inference. We employ PageRank as the metric for influence computation. We illustrate how the proposed solution maintains accurate PageRank scores for computing global influence, and topic-sensitive weighted PageRank scores for topic-based influence. The latter relies on a topic-based network constructed via weights determined by semantic analysis of posts and their sharing statistics. We evaluate the effectiveness of our algorithms by comparing them with the true influence scores of the full and up-to-date version of the network, using data from the micro-blogging service Twitter. Results show that our techniques significantly outperform baseline methods and are superior to state-of-the-art techniques from the literature.

A main tool in our proof is a comparison of two exchange graphs, obtained by tilting hearts in the quotient categories and by flipping mixed angulations associated with the quadratic differentials.

description: Objective: To personally customize the antenatal ultrasound charts for the fetal corpus callosum (CC) length. Methods: A retrospective analysis of fetal neuro-sonography scans. Cases were grouped as normal neuro-sonographic evaluation (normal) or as high risk and suspected brain anomaly (abnormal). The normal group was subcategorized according to Cignini’s CC length charts. Data of fetuses with a CC length between the 5th–95th percentile served for creating new charts, describing the ratio of the CC length to the major biometric parameters as a function of gestational age (GA). Results: A total of 410 measurements were included. Of them 255 were normal and 155 abnormal. The CC length/estimated fetal weight (EFW) ratio had the strongest linear association with GA (R2 = 0.929). Applying charts using this ratio to the normal group, significantly increased the percent of CC length measurements defined as normal from 84.7 to 94.5% (p p = .137) Conclusions: The CC length/EFW ratio is strongly and linearly associated with GA. Using this personalized ratio may improve the diagnostic accuracy of CC evaluation by adjusting the CC length to the fetus natural proportions.

description: Parkinson’s disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, but therapeutic options such as neuromodulation continue to show variable effects, making clinical management of the disease difficult. This systematic review with meta-analysis and meta-regression aimed to analyze the isolated effect of cortical modulation with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) compared to sham stimulation on cognitive changes in people with Parkinson’s disease. The databases used were: Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Cochrane. The results showed that tDCS can influence the improvement of cognition in PD (Inverse Variance:0.24 [95% Confidence Interval: 0.09 to −0.40], p < 0.00). The meta-analysis showed that active tDCS can influence cognitive function by improving aspects related to memory (Inverse Variance:0.34 [95% Confidence Interval: 0.07 to 0.61], p < 0.01) and reducing reaction time in cognitive tasks (Inverse Variance:0.42 [95% Confidence Interval: 0.07 to 0.76], p < 0.02). Innovative meta-regression analyses showed that variables such as age (Q = 2.54, df = 1, p < 0.11), education level (Q = 2.62, df = 1, p < 0.10), disease duration (Q = 0.01, df = 1, p < 0.92), and Unified PD Rating Scale stage (Q = 0.01, df = 1, p < 0.92) did not influence the results. Thus, tDCS may be a therapeutic option for cognitive changes in people with PD, and we suggest further studies to identify protocols that can be replicated.

description: Modelling interfacial dynamics with soluble surfactants in a multiphase system is a challenging task. Here, we consider the numerical approximation of a phase-field surfactant model with fluid flow. The nonlinearly coupled model consists of two Cahn-Hilliard-type equations and incompressible Navier-Stokes equation. With the introduction of two auxiliary variables, the governing system is transformed into an equivalent form, which allows the nonlinear potentials to be treated efficiently and semi-explicitly. By certain subtle explicit-implicit treatments to stress and convective terms, we construct first and second-order time marching schemes, which are extremely efficient and easy-to-implement, for the transformed governing system. At each time step, the schemes involve solving only a sequence of linear elliptic equations, and computations of phase-field variables, velocity and pressure are fully decoupled. We further establish a rigorous proof of unconditional energy stability for the first-order scheme. Numerical results in both two and three dimensions are obtained, which demonstrate that the proposed schemes are accurate, efficient and unconditionally energy stable. Using our schemes, we investigate the effect of surfactants on droplet deformation and collision under a shear flow, where the increase of surfactant concentration can enhance droplet deformation and inhibit droplet coalescence.

description: Quantum circuits must run on quantum computers with tight limits on qubit and gate counts. To generate circuits respecting both limits, a promising opportunity is exploiting uncomputation to trade qubits for gates. We present Reqomp, a method to automatically synthesize correct and efficient uncomputation of ancillae while respecting hardware constraints. For a given circuit, Reqomp can offer a wide range of trade-offs between tightly constraining qubit count or gate count. Our evaluation demonstrates that Reqomp can significantly reduce the number of required ancilla qubits by up to 96%. On 80% of our benchmarks, the ancilla qubits required can be reduced by at least 25% while never incurring a gate count increase beyond 28%.

description: We show that when an external magnetic field parallel to the boundary is applied, the Weyl anomaly gives rises to a new anomalous current in the vicinity of the boundary. The induced current is a magnetization current in origin: the movement of the virtual charges near the boundary give rise to a nonuniform magnetization of the vacuum and hence a magnetization current. Unlike other previously studied anomalous current phenomena such as the chiral magnetic effect or the chiral vortical effect, this induced current does not rely on the presence of a material system and can occur in vacuum. Similar to the Casimir effect, our discovered phenomenon arises from the effect of the boundary on the quantum fluctuations of the vacuum. However this induced current is purely quantum mechanical and has no classical limit. We briefly comment on how this induced current may be observed experimentally.

description: Rare-earth phosphors exhibit unique luminescence polarization features originating from the anisotropic symmetry of the emitter ion's chemical environment. However, to take advantage of this peculiar property, it is necessary to control and measure the ensemble orientation of the host particles with a high degree of precision. Here, we show a methodology to obtain the photoluminescence polarization of Eu-doped LaPO4 nano rods assembled in an electrically modulated liquid-crystalline phase. We measure Eu3+ emission spectra for the three main optimal configurations (σ, π and α, depending on the direction of observation and the polarization axes) and use them as a reference for the nano rod orientation analysis. Based on the fact that flowing nano rods tend to orient along the shear strain profile, we use this orientation analysis to measure the local shear rate in a flowing liquid. The potential of this approach is then demonstrated through tomographic imaging of the shear rate distribution in a microfluidic system.

description: In this paper, we have constructed the cosmological model of the universe in a two fluids environment with a newly developed mathematical formalism. In order to construct the model Binachi type V (BV) space time is considered with a time varying deceleration parameter. Both the fluids, the viscous fluid and the dark energy (DE) fluid have shown their dominance respectively in early time and late time of the cosmic evolution. The scale factor that simulates the cosmic transition based on the value of the bulk viscous coefficient. Within the developed formalism, a general form of the skewness parameters is also obtained as a functional form of the scale factor. The physical parameter of the model such as equation of state (EoS) parameter is also derived and analysed. The state finder diagnostic pair are also obtained to understand the geometrical nature of the model.

Further improvements in the understanding of electromagnetic interactions of light nuclei will allow for a promising test of fundamental interactions by comparison with ``normal" atomic spectroscopy, in particular, with H-D and $^3$He-$^4$He isotope shifts.

description: We report a holographic study of a two-dimensional dilaton gravity theory with the Dirichlet boundary condition for the cases of non-vanishing and vanishing cosmological constants. Our result shows that the boundary theory of the two-dimensional dilaton gravity theory with the Dirichlet boundary condition for the case of non-vanishing cosmological constants is the Schwarzian term coupled to a dilaton field, while for the case of vanishing cosmological constant, a theory does not have a kinetic term. We also include the higher derivative term $R^2$, where $R$ is the scalar curvature that is coupled to a dilaton field. We find that the form of the boundary theory is not modified perturbatively. Finally, we show that a lattice holographic picture is realized up to the second-order perturbation of boundary cut-off $ε^2$ under a constant boundary dilaton field and the non-vanishing cosmological constant by identifying the lattice spacing $a$ of a lattice Schwarzian theory with the boundary cut-off $ε$ of the two-dimensional dilaton gravity theory.

description: Abstract

This thesis investigates teacher quality and productivity in public secondary schools in Lower-Shabelle, Somalia. The study aims to provide insights into the demographic profile, perceptions of teacher quality, factors influencing productivity, and recommendations for improvement. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving surveys and interviews with teachers to gather data on demographics, educational qualifications, teaching experience, and perceptions of teacher quality and productivity. Key findings indicate a predominantly male respondent population (78.8%), with the majority aged between 20-29 years (80%) and holding bachelor's degrees (57.5%). Most teachers have less than 5 years of experience (47.5%), and a significant majority rated teacher quality in their schools as excellent (61.3%). Characteristics identified as crucial for high-quality teaching include content knowledge, classroom management skills, pedagogical expertise, and interpersonal skills. Teacher productivity was primarily defined by student learning outcomes (42.5%) and the quality of lessons taught (32.5%), influenced by factors such as student behavior and resource availability. Recommendations focus on enhancing professional development opportunities, improving teacher characteristics through targeted training, addressing classroom management challenges, ensuring adequate resource provision, fostering communication and collaboration among teachers, and implementing effective performance evaluation and feedback mechanisms. These findings and recommendations aim to guide policy-makers, educational leaders, and stakeholders in improving educational outcomes and fostering a supportive environment for teaching in public secondary schools in Lower-Shabelle, Somalia.

description: Nowadays, there are a lot of techniques and tools for addressing the ontology matching problem; however, the complex nature of this problem means that the existing solutions are unsatisfactory. This work intends to shed some light on a more flexible way of matching ontologies using ontology meta-matching. This emerging technique selects appropriate algorithms and their associated weights and thresholds in scenarios where accurate ontology matching is necessary. We think that an overview of the problem and an analysis of the existing state-of-the-art solutions will help researchers and practitioners to identify the most appropriate specific features and global strategies in order to build more accurate and dynamic systems following this paradigm.

description: Stellar dynamics indicate the presence of a super massive 3-4x10^6 Msun solm black hole at the Galactic Center. It is associated with the variable radio, near-infrared, and X-ray counterpart Sagittarius A* (SgrA*). The goal is the investigation and understanding of the physical processes responsible for the variable emission from SgrA*. The observations have been carried out using the NACO adaptive optics (AO) instrument at the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (July 2005, May 2007) and the ACIS-I instrument aboard the Chandra X-ray Observatory (July 2005). We find that for the July 2005 flare the variable and polarized NIR emission of SgrA* occurred synchronous with a moderately bright flare event in the X-ray domain with an excess 2 - 8 keV luminosity of about 8x10^33erg/s. We find no time lag between the flare events in the two wavelength bands with a lower limit of less than 10 minutes. The May 2007 flare shows the highest sub-flare to flare contrast observed until now. It provides evidence for a variation in the profile of consecutive sub-flares. We confirm that highly variable and NIR polarized flare emission is non-thermal and that there exists a class of synchronous NIR/X-ray flares. We find that the flaring state can be explained via the synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) process involving up-scattered sub-millimeter photons from a compact source component. The observations can be interpreted in a model involving a temporary disk with a short jet. In the disk component the flux density variations can be explained due to spots on relativistic orbits around the central super massive black hole (SMBH). The profile variations for the May 2007 flare are interpreted as a variation of the spot structure due to differential rotation within the disk.

Exploring the inner parsecs of Active Galactic Nuclei using near-infrared high resolution polarimetric simulations with MontAGN

description: Aims: In this paper, we aim to constrain the properties of dust structures in the central first parsecs of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Our goal is to study the required optical depth and composition of different dusty and ionised structures. Methods: We developed a radiative transfer code, MontAGN, optimised for polarimetric observations in the infrared. With both this code and STOKES, designed to be relevant from the hard X-ray band to near-infrared wavelengths, we investigate the polarisation emerging from a characteristic model of the AGN environment. For that purpose, we compare predictions of our models with previous infrared observations of NGC 1068, and try to reproduce several key polarisation patterns revealed by polarisation mapping. Results: We constrain the required dust structures as well as their densities. More precisely, we find out that the electron density inside the ionisation cone is about $2.0 \times 10^9$ m$^{-3}$ . With structures constituted of spherical grains of constant density, we also highlight that the torus should be thicker than 20 in term of K band optical depth to block direct light from the centre. It should also have a stratification in density, with a lesser dense outer rim with an optical depth at 2.2 μm typically between 0.8 and 4 for observing the double scattering effect previously proposed. Conclusions: We bring constraints on the dust structures in the inner parsecs of an AGN model supposed to describe NGC 1068. When compared to observations, this leads to optical depth of at least 20 in Ks band for the torus of NGC 1068, corresponding to $τ_V \approx 170$, which is within the range of current estimation based on observations. In the future, we will improve our study by including non uniform dust structures and aligned elongated grains to constrain other possible interpretations of the observations.

description: A direct numerical simulation (DNS) of a channel flow with one curved surface was performed at moderate Reynolds number (Re_tau = 395 at the inlet). The adverse pressure gradient was obtained by a wall curvature through a mathematical mapping from physical coordinates to Cartesian ones. The code, using spectral spanwise and normal discretization, combines the advantage of a good accuracy with a fast integration procedure compared to standard numerical procedures for complex geometries. The turbulent flow slightly separates on the profile at the lower curved wall and is at the onset of separation at the opposite flat wall. The thin separation bubble is characterized with a reversal flow fraction. Intense vortices are generated near the separation line on the lower wall but also at the upper wall. Turbulent normal stresses and kinetic energy budget are investigated along the channel.

title: Towards a Philology of Electroacoustic Music - Xenakis’s Tape Music as Paradigm.
Creators: name: Friedl, Reinhold
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2022

description: This research focuses on the electroacoustic tape music of the French-Greek composer Iannis Xenakis as a case study for a philology of electroacoustic music. It is shown that most commercially released versions of his three most well-known pieces contain major faults. Persepolis (1971) and La Légende d’Eer (1979) have been released with incorrect sample rates. In light of these facts, the work of Xenakis serves as a good subject for the discussion of a philology of electroacoustic music. A systematic philological research method for electroacoustic music is developed. Thus, philology of electroacoustic music is an ideal field to apply newer tendencies in philology; critique génétique widens the focus on the development of the compositional process, and material philology broadens the view of the text and its support. In the case of electroacoustic music, it encompasses not only paper, but also magnetic tape, digital media, etc. It will be shown that a philological research approach allows a new holistic view of Xenakis's work and ideas. Philological research in the field of electroacoustic music is urgent, as a vast number of possible sources will soon disintegrate. It will enable us to critically discuss the sources of electroacoustic music in the light of the changed technology. In the practical part of the thesis Xenakis's textural approach is extended: I developed the computer programme TTM (Texture Transformation Machine) that facilitates the construction of non-symmetrical, probability-controlled transitions between given musical textures. The software and the realisation of two compositions, String Quartet No. 3 and KRAFFT for orchestra, are discussed in detail.

description: For the second lowest-order Raviart--Thomas mixed method, we prove that the canonical interpolant and finite element solution for the vector variable in elliptic problems are superclose in the $H(\text{div})$-norm on mildly structured meshes, where most pairs of adjacent triangles form approximate parallelograms. We then develop a family of postprocessing operators for Raviart--Thomas mixed elements on triangular grids by using the idea of local least squares fittings. Super-approximation property of the postprocessing operators for the lowest and second lowest order Raviart--Thomas elements is proved under mild conditions. Combining the supercloseness and super-approximation results, we prove that the postprocessed solution superconverges to the exact solution in the $L^2$-norm on mildly structured meshes.
