description: The electronic Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer in the integer quantum Hall regime is an ideal system to probe the building up of quantum correlations between charge carriers and it has been proposed as a viable platform for quantum computing gates. Using a parallel implementation of the split-step Fourier method, we simulated the antibunching of two interacting fermionic wave packets impinging on a quantum point contact. Numerical results of the exact approach are compared with a simplified theoretical model based on one-dimensional scattering formalism. We show that, for a realistic geometry, the Coulomb repulsion dominates over the exchange energy, this effect being strongly dependent on the energy broadening of the particles. We define analytically the spatial entanglement between the two regions of the quantum point contact, and obtain quantitatively its entanglement-generation capabilities.

description: This paper reviews many of the known inequalities for the eigenvalues of the Laplacian and bi-Laplacian on bounded domains in Euclidean space. In particular, we focus on isoperimetric inequalities for the low eigenvalues of the Dirichlet and Neumann Laplacians and of the vibrating clamped plate problem (i.e., the biharmonic operator with ``Dirichlet'' boundary conditions). We also discuss the known universal inequalities for the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian and the vibrating clamped plate and buckling problems and go on to present some new ones. Some of the names associated with these inequalities are Rayleigh, Faber-Krahn, Szego-Weinberger, Payne-Polya-Weinberger, Sperner, Hile-Protter, and H. C. Yang. Occasionally, we will also comment on extensions of some of our inequalities to bounded domains in other spaces, specifically, S^n or H^n.

description: Purpose: This dissertation has two primary aims; 1) to better understand how various physical, psychological, and general health factors influence physical activity (PA) and 2) to better understand different clinical phenotypes in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and functional outcomes, including PA. Methods: This dissertation utilizes data from the 48-month follow up of the Osteoarthritis Initiative, an observational longitudinal study of 4,796 participants examining onset and progression of knee OA in community dwelling adults between the age of 45-79. For the first study: 403 participants in a subset of participants using accelerometer- derived PA data, were analyzed for significant correlates of total PA time to estimate total PA using a linear regression model with bootstrapped standard errors. The second study includes data from 1,057 participants to perform a K-Mean Cluster analysis using body mass index, depressive symptoms, strength and radiographic evidence. One Way Analysis of Variance analysis and a Tukey’s post-hoc test was utilized to compare clinical outcomes between clusters including PA, function and pain. Results: In our first study: Over three-quarters of our sample did not meet the recommended volumes of PA. Negative associations were noted between higher BMI and total PA, comorbid conditions and total PA, and increasing age and total PA. A positive association was noted between diverting attention as a coping strategy and higher volumes of PA. In our second study: The cluster analysis identified 5 clinical phenotypes. Significant differences were noted between phenotypic groups in all clinical outcomes measured. Conclusion: Older adults with knee OA are not meeting recommendations for total PA, which can improve function and attenuate the effects of functional decline and disability. Four major factors were associated with total PA levels in a population with mild to moderate knee OA: co-morbidities, age, BMI, and the diverting attention coping strategy. In our second study, we identified five phenotypes of individuals with knee osteoarthritis and revealed differential clinical outcomes based on phenotypes. Understanding clinical differences between phenotypes may enable us to efficiently and effectively target our interventions to optimize PA and functional outcomes in people with knee osteoarthritis.

Database management
SQL (Computer program language)

description: Database management systems (DBMSs) are designed with the goal set to compile SQL queries to physical plans that, when executed, provide results to the SQL queries. Building on this functionality, an ever-increasing number of application domains (e.g., provenance management, online query optimization, physical database design, interactive data profiling,  monitoring, and interactive data visualization) seek to operate on how queries are executed by the DBMS for a wide variety of purposes ranging from debugging and data explanation to optimization and monitoring. Unfortunately, DBMSs provide little, if any, support to facilitate the development of this class of important application domains. The effect is such that database application developers and database system architects either rewrite the database internals in ad-hoc ways; work around the SQL interface, if possible, with inevitable performance penalties; or even build new databases from scratch only to express and optimize their domain-specific application logic over how queries are executed.
      To address this problem in a principled manner in this dissertation, we introduce a prototype DBMS, namely, Smoke, that exposes instrumentation mechanisms in the form of a framework to allow external applications to manipulate physical plans. Intuitively, a physical plan is the underlying representation that DBMSs use to encode how a SQL query will be executed, and providing instrumentation mechanisms at this representation level allows applications to express and optimize their logic on how queries are executed.
      Having such an instrumentation-enabled DBMS in-place, we then consider how to express and optimize applications that rely their logic on how queries are executed. To best demonstrate the expressive and optimization power of instrumentation-enabled DBMSs, we express and optimize applications across several important domains including provenance management, interactive data visualization, interactive data profiling, physical database design, online query optimization, and query discovery. Expressivity-wise, we show that Smoke can express known techniques, introduce novel semantics on known techniques, and introduce new techniques across domains. Performance-wise, we show case-by-case that Smoke is on par with or up-to several orders of magnitudes faster than state-of-the-art imperative and declarative implementations of important applications across domains.
      As such, we believe our contributions provide evidence and form the basis towards a class of instrumentation-enabled DBMSs with the goal set to express and optimize applications across important domains with core logic over how queries are executed by DBMSs.

description: The progressive blooming of silicon photonics technology (SiP) has indicated that optical interconnects may substitute the electrical wires for data movement over short distances in the future. Silicon Photonics platform has been the subject of intensive research for more than a decade now and its prospects continue to emerge as it enjoys the maturity of CMOS manufacturing industry. SiP foundries all over the world and particularly in the US (AIM Photonics) have been developing reliable photonic design kits (PDKs) that include fundamental SiP building blocks such as wavelength selective modulators and tunable filters. Microring resonators (MRR) are hailed as the most compact devices that can perform both modulation and demodulation in a wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) transceiver design. Although the use of WDM can reduce the number of fibers carrying data, it also makes the design of transceivers challenging. It is probably acceptable to achieve compactness at the expense of somewhat higher transceiver cost and power consumption. Nevertheless, these two metrics should remain close to their roadmap values for Datacom applications. An increase of an order of magnitude is clearly not acceptable. For example costs relative to bandwidth for an optical link in a data center interconnect will have to decrease from the current $5/Gbps down to

description: Sulfoxides, upon irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light undergo α-cleavage, hydrogen abstraction, photodeoxygenation, bimolecular photoreduction, and stereo-mutation. The UV irradiation of dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO) yields dibenzothiophene (DBT) as a major product along with ground-state atomic oxygen [O(3P)]. This is a common method for generating O(3P) in solution. The low quantum yield of photodeoxygenation and the requirement of UVA light are drawbacks of using this method. The sulfoxides benzo[b]naphtho-[1,2,d]thiophene S-oxide, benzo[b]naphtho [2,1,d]thiophene S-oxide, benzo[b] phenanthro[9,10-d]thiophene S-oxide, dinaphtho- [2,1-b:1’,2’-d]thiophene S-oxide, and dinaphtho[1,2-b:2’,1’-d]thiophene S-oxide have shown to deoxygenate up to three times faster than DBTO upon UVA irradiation; however, the photodeoxygenation of these sulfoxides does not appear to be limited to the production of O(3P). In this work, phenanthro[4,5-bcd]thiophene S-oxide, triphenyleno[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide, and perylo[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide were synthesized and their photodeoxygenation was studied. Phenanthro[4,5-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide, triphenyleno[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide, and perylo[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide deoxygenated upon UVA irradiation. However, the common intermediate experiments did not conclusively identify the photodeoxygenation mechanism of these sulfoxides.

description: A technically convenient signature of localization, exhibited by discrete operators with random potentials, is exponential decay of the fractional moments of the Green function within the appropriate energy ranges. Known implications include: spectral localization, absence of level repulsion, strong form of dynamical localization, and a related condition which plays a significant role in the quantization of the Hall conductance in two-dimensional Fermi gases. We present a family of finite-volume criteria which, under some mild restrictions on the distribution of the potential, cover the regime where the fractional moment decay condition holds. The constructive criteria permit to establish this condition at spectral band edges, provided there are sufficient `Lifshitz tail estimates' on the density of states. They are also used here to conclude that the fractional moment condition, and thus the other manifestations of localization, are valid throughout the regime covered by the ``multiscale analysis''. In the converse direction, the analysis rules out fast power-law decay of the Green functions at mobility edges.

description: Due to the internationally sensitive nature of the verification process, unambiguous structural identification of Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC)-related chemicals in a sample of a suspected agent is necessary. Therefore, the availability of mass spectra, retention indices, and interpretation skills are essential needs. S,S-dialkyl methylphosphonothioloselenoates belong to scheduled 2.B.04 of the CWC, but there are no analytical data for these compounds in the literature. The title compounds are prepared through microsynthetic protocols, and the results of their mass spectra are studied by electron ionization (EI) method. Schemes for the fragmentation of the compounds are proposed. The retention indices (RI) of the synthesized compounds are also calculated using Van den Dool’s method. The correlation of RI and calculated polarizability data is investigated by density functional theory calculations. EI mass spectra and RI values enable structural identification of all the studied isomeric compounds.

description: Fisheries habitat and watershed integrity are highly valued resources in the subalpine natural subregion of west-central Alberta. Teck’s Luscar open pit coal mine has been in operation in this area since 1969, and 51-C6 pit was mined from 1992 to 1999. Accomplishing a sound development and reclamation plan to meet biodiversity objectives for 51-C6 pit included operational considerations such as surface water diversions and post-mining fisheries habitat development. The pit had to be mined and reclaimed such that the end pit and inlet/outlet streams would sustain in perpetuity the full range of habitat and watershed features needed to support native Athabasca Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and Bull Trout (Salvelinus confluentus). The five year post-reclamation fisheries habitat and population assessment indicates a surging Rainbow Trout population, high growth rates and enhanced habitat conditions as compared with the pre-mine coldwater, lotic system. This paper covers the process from environmental assessment through construction and reclamation to closure assessment, highlighting the challenges, uncertainties, and successes of Teck’s award-winning Sphinx Lake system within the context of biological diversity.

description: At the linear level, the gravitational wave (GW) spectrum predicted by inflation, and many of its alternatives, can have arbitrarily small amplitude and consequently an unconstrained tilt. However, at second order, tensor fluctuations are sourced by scalar fluctuations that have been measured in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). These second order fluctuations generically produce a minimum amount of tensor perturbations corresponding to a tensor-to-scalar ratio of $r\sim 10^{-6}$. Inverting this relationship yields a bound on the tensor tilt sourced by scalar fluctuations. Since this induced GW spectrum depends on the scalar spectrum, we derive a new indirect bound that involves \textit{all scales} of the scalar spectrum based on CMB observations. This bound comes from the constraint on the number of effective relativistic degrees of freedom, $N_{eff}$. We estimate the bound using current data, and the improvements expected by future CMB experiment. The bound forces the running and running of running to conform to standard slow-roll predictions of $α,β\lesssim (n_s-1)^2$, improving on current CMB measurements by an order of magnitude. This bound has further implications for the possibility of primordial black holes as dark matter candidates. Performing a likelihood analysis including this new constraint, we find that positive $α$ and/or $β$ are disfavored at least at $1σ$. Finally, using bounds on the fractional energy density of gravitational waves today obtained by LIGO and the Pulsar Timing Array, we obtain a bound on the primordial scalar spectrum on these scales and give forecast for future measurements.

description: We study quantum interference of electronic waves that are scattered by multiple non-magnetic impurities in a d_x2-y2-wave superconductor. We show that the number of resonance states in the density-of-states (DOS), as well as their frequency and spatial dependence change significantly as the distance between the impurities or their orientation relative to the crystal lattice is varied. Since the latter effect arises from the momentum dependence of the superconducting gap, we argue that quantum interference is a novel tool to identify the symmetry of unconventional superconductors.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine PA students’ perceptions of their professional training program in relation to stressors imparted by the hidden curriculum of the community of practice during the didactic and clinical years. The cross-sectional study design involved 50 in-person, semi-structured interviews (divided evenly between students in didactic and clinical cohorts) at one Physician Assistant training program in the New York City metropolitan region. Interviews sought to improve understanding about perceptions of stressors, particularly those imparted by the hidden curriculum, and examine mitigating factors within the community of practice. Highlights of results were that daunting stresses in the didactic year were mitigated by faculty support, camaraderie among students, and, at times, students accessing important student services such as psychological counseling. The stressors were exacerbated by disorganized teaching mainly by guest lecturers, including frequent absences, which was perceived by students that their time was not a priority. The stressors of heavy course loads dwindled during the clinical year but were replaced by others related to the hidden curriculum of the medical hierarchy, including occasional depersonalization of patients, teaching by humiliation, and favoritism shown to medical students. The community of practice for Physician Assistant students is highly stressful and psychologically precarious. The culture of PA education would do well to strongly encourage self-care and a greater balance between professional preparation of mental and physical well-being in order to encourage professionalism, improve patient care, and cultivate higher levels of job satisfaction and well-being among students.

description: Nanofluidics is an emerging field with many science and engineering applications. The physics of material transport through nanochannels are of interest in filtration, sensing, device miniaturization, and biomimetics. To address such ambitions with nanofluidic tools will require advancements in our understanding and control over nanofluidic systems. This work contributes to electrokinetic phenomena, characterization techniques, and applications in nanofluidics. Ion transport data through nanopipettes are used to validate a finite element model for nonlinear electrokinetic flows. With the model, we conclude that asymmetric surfaces induce fluid vortices and provide insight into supporting mathematical techniques. We then establish nanobubble-plugged nanopipettes as promising ionic devices due to the electrokinetic effects of three-phase interfaces. Using cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, ion current measurements, and extensive physical modeling, we conclude that nanobubble plugs are metastable, slow-growing, and induce strong current rectification and enhancement. All these insights let us study microbial surfaces using electrokinetic phenomena detected by a scanned nanopipette. Over immobilized Pseudomonas aerugonsa cells and Δphz-type biofilms, we detect topographic and surface charge properties due to voltage-dependent signals through a scanned nanopipette probe. Our efforts establish a fast hopping probe scanning ion conductance microscopy technique for long-range surface charge detection. Finally, we use an integrated carbon nanotube channel to demonstrate how solid-state charge can drive electrokinetic flows through Coulomb drag coupling.

description: Cultural competency training in physician assistant (PA) education may improve patient care outcomes and help reduce health disparities.  Research suggests that incorporating cross-cultural communication techniques into healthcare delivery improves provider-patient relationships, patient satisfaction, adherence to treatment, and health outcomes.  While PA accreditation standards include mandatory elements regarding cultural competency training of PA students, there is little research on how PA students feel about the effectiveness of this training.  This study focused on determining PA students’ perceived levels of preparedness to treat patients of culturally diverse backgrounds.  Specifically, the study evaluated PA students’ knowledge, skills, encounters, attitudes, awareness, and abilities regarding cultural competence, as well as students’ evaluations of these components of their education.
      The study utilized an online cross-sectional questionnaire with quantitative and qualitative components to 239 PA student respondents across eight American professional preparation programs in higher education institutions.  The survey used a modified version of the previously validated Self-Assessment of Perceived Level of Cultural Competence Questionnaire (SAPLCC).  Descriptive statistics were measured using SPSS software (v. 24).  Independent sample t-tests identified significant differences in subscale scores between race and academic year.  Qualitative data were hand-coded for common themes.
      Overall, findings showed that PA students rated their attitudes, awareness, and abilities about cultural competence as significantly greater than their knowledge, skills, and encounters.  Specific areas of identified weaknesses in cultural competency education included: knowledge regarding the cultural context of care; skills associated with managing cross-cultural clinical challenges; and encounters related to coping with aggressiveness and bias.  Further analysis indicated that second-year students and non-Caucasian students reported higher personal ratings for levels of cultural competence.
      Qualitative data provided further insight into students’ levels of preparedness, indicating that most surveyed PA students felt well prepared (39%) or moderately prepared (46%), rather than those who did not feel at all prepared (15%).  Students indicated that specific classes focusing on cultural topics, discussions about cultural issues, and clinical experiences were the most useful for promoting cross-cultural education.  Future investigation might explore the effectiveness of standardized approaches to training, how student perceptions align with actual care outcomes, or examine how diversity within PA programs impacts students’ preparedness to provide cross-cultural care.

description: It is known that characters of irreducible representations of finite Lie algebras can be obtained using theWeyl character formula including Weyl group summations which make actual calculations almost impossible except for a few Lie algebras of lower rank. By starting from the Weyl character formula, we show that these characters can be re-expressed without referring to Weyl group summations. Some useful technical points are given in detail for the instructive example of G2 Lie algebra.

Balancing focal species, recreation and biodiversity in mountain coal mine closure planning : Alberta, Canada

description: Coal extraction in the Coal Branch region of Alberta, Canada has occurred since 1911 with surface mining dominating as of the 1940s. Coal mining in this mountain/foothills landscape now occurs in a multiple land use context along with oil and gas exploration and production, timber harvest, aggregate mining, big game hunting/guiding/outfitting, fur trapping, recreational All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) use, fishing, camping and other outdoor recreational pursuits. Currently, there are three surface coal mines in various stages of active mining, reclamation and closure in the upper elevations of the Coal Branch region. Mining has taken place within an increasingly stringent regulatory framework. In the mid-1990s, application was made for the Cheviot mine project. It’s close proximity to Jasper National Park and heightened cumulative effects assessment requirements resulted in a ground-breaking series of public hearings, legal proceedings and two federal-provincial Joint Review Panels. Focal wildlife species, with particular emphasis on large carnivores (grizzly bears) and ungulates (elk, bighorn sheep), were a major aspect of the Cheviot environmental impact assessments and subsequent research/monitoring. The Cheviot mine was approved in 2004 with the first of a series of mine licenses required through the phased mine development. A land use planning process (LUP) is on-going for the end land use closure planning of two older coal mines (Luscar and Gregg River) located near the Cheviot Mine. This process is being informed by on-going ecological research and monitoring at all three mines. The issues and discussions surrounding the LUP are in turn informing the Cheviot Mine permit application process. Three over-arching end land use goals dominate the current mine closure planning debate. They include: 1) maintaining and enhancing focal species habitat and populations as per the original Cheviot project mandate; 2) preserving either pre-disturbance or modified recreational land use opportunities; and, 3) approximating pre-disturbance native biological diversity conditions. This paper discusses challenges and lessons learned over a 15-year period concerning the balancing of these three primary end land use goals.

description: The quark-gluon to hadron transition affects the evolution of cosmological perturbations. If the phase transition is first order, the sound speed vanishes during the transition, and density perturbations fall freely. This distorts the primordial Harrison-Zel'dovich spectrum of density fluctuations below the Hubble scale at the transition. Peaks are produced, which grow at most linearly in wavenumber, both for the hadron-photon-lepton fluid and for cold dark matter. For cold dark matter which is kinetically decoupled well before the QCD transition clumps of masses below $10^{-10} M_\odot$ are produced.

description: The low-energy properties of a system at a critical point may have additional symmetries not present in the microscopic Hamiltonian. This letter presents the theory of a class of multicritical points that provide an interesting example of this in the phase diagrams of random antiferromagnetic spin chains. One case provides an analytic theory of the quantum critical point in the random spin-3/2 chain, studied in recent work by Refael, Kehrein and Fisher (cond-mat/0111295).
