description: Beta ensembles on the real line with three classical weights (Gaussian, Laguerre and Jacobi) are now realized as the eigenvalues of certain tridiagonal random matrices. The paper deals with beta Jacobi ensembles, the type with the Jacobi weight. Making use of the random matrix model, we show that in the regime where $βN \to const \in [0, \infty)$, with $N$ the system size, the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues converges weakly to a limiting measure which belongs to a new class of probability measures of associated Jacobi polynomials. This is analogous to the existing results for the other two classical weights. We also study the limiting behavior of the empirical measure process of beta Jacobi processes in the same regime and obtain a dynamic version of the above.

description: Purpose: Adolescents with a history of language difficulties are at risk for increased social and emotional difficulties; however, the pathways involved are unclear. We examine the contribution of poor emotion regulation by comparing longitudinal data from children at risk of developmental language disorder (rDLD) and the general population.Method: Data from the Millennium Cohort Study were analyzed at ages 3, 5, 7, 11, and 14 years. The rDLD group (children with parent-reported difficulties and/or a score of −1.5 SDs on the Naming Vocabulary subtest at age 5 years) was compared to a general population group on parent reports of emotion regulation, peer problems, and emotional problems.Results: In line with the established literature, increased socioemotional problems in individuals with language difficulties were reported. Poor emotion regulation consistently predicted subsequent peer and emotional problems throughout development in both groups. Stronger cross-lag effects were found in the rDLD group for poor emotion regulation at age 3 years predicting age 5 years emotional problems and age 5 years emotional problems predicting age 7 years emotion regulation difficulties. Stronger reciprocal cross-lag effects were also observed in the rDLD group between peer and emotional problems at ages 3 and 5 years. No significant group differences were found in adolescence.Conclusions: Poor emotion regulation makes a small but significant contribution to later peer and emotional difficulties, and this relationship is stronger in children at rDLD. Early reciprocal peer and emotional difficulties are also stronger in the rDLD group, but these effects dissipate in midchildhood. Nevertheless, the consistent relationship between early emotion regulation difficulties and socioemotional problems throughout development warrants further investigation in individuals with lower language skills.

description: In this Communication, it is shown that models used for describing generation and recombination of electrons and holes lead to disagreements with Maxwell's electrodynamics. Self-consistent expressions, more adequately depicting the actual physical processes of electron-hole recombination in semiconductors are obtained. It is shown that the electron and hole lifetimes can be defined correctly only for the special cases when the electron and hole nonequilibrium concentrations are the same, these lifetimes being equal. The influence of temperature inhomogeneity on the recombination is also considered. The recombination rate for hot electrons is obtained in the case when the electron and hole temperatures differ.

description: This paper describes a strategy to implement a seed collection program in Aruba and its relation to agriculture extension. Research results on cowpea are used to illustrate the potential of the strategy and its application to germ plasm conservation and food crops production. For descriptive purposes we have considered the characteristics of cowpea such as chemical composition of seeds, quantitative and qualitative characteristics. As for agriculture extension the motivation, work, attitude and knowledge of consumption preferences are used as basic elements. More research is required to determine production capacity of the traditional food crops in Aruba.

description: We have demonstrated a full noncontact laser technology to measure the velocity of ultrasonic waves and their spectra propagated through concrete samples exposed to specified high-temperature conditions with specified durations as models of concrete structures in a severe accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. The velocities and spectra of the ultrasonic waves were strongly dependent on the exposed temperature, i.e. at a high-temperature condition of 400°C, the velocity was 3700 m/s, and at room temperature, the velocity was 5000 m/s. Experimental results are almost comparable to those obtained by the contact ultrasonic technique.

description: The carriers in graphene tuned close to the Dirac point envisage signatures of the strongly interacting fluid and are subject to hydrodynamic description. The important question is whether strong disorder induces the metal-insulator transition in this two-dimensional material. The bound on the conductivity tensor found earlier within the single current description, implies that the system does not feature metal-insulator transition. The linear spectrum of the graphene imposes the phase-space constraints and calls for the two-current description of interacting electron and hole liquids. Based on the gauge/gravity correspondence, using the linear response of the black brane with broken translation symmetry in Einstein-Maxwell gravity with the auxiliary U(1)-gauge field, responsible for the second current, we have calculated the lower bound of the DC-conductivity in holographic model of graphene. The calculations show that the bound on the conductivity depends on the coupling between both U(1) fields and for a physically justified range of parameters it departs only weakly from the value found for a model with the single U(1) field.

description: We present a non-linear elastic model of a coherent transition with discontinuous volume change in an isotropic solid. The model reproduces the anomalous thermodynamics typical of coherent equilibrium including intrinsic hysteresis (for a pressure driven experiment) and a negative bulk modulus. The novelty of the model is that the statistical mechanics solution can be easily worked out. We find that coherency leads to an infinite-range density--density interaction, which drives classical critical behavior. The pressure width of the hysteresis loop shrinks with increasing temperature, ending at a critical point at a temperature related to the shear modulus. The bulk modulus softens with a 1/2 exponent at the transition even far from the critical point. Many well known features of the phase diagram of Ce and related systems are explained by the model.

description: The plunge-merger stage of the binary-black hole coalescence, when the bodies' velocities reach a large fraction of the speed of light and the gravitational-wave luminosity peaks, provides a unique opportunity to probe gravity in the dynamical and nonlinear regime. How much do the predictions of general relativity differ from the ones in other theories of gravity for this stage of the binary evolution? To address this question, we develop a parametrized waveform model, within the effective-one-body formalism, that allows for deviations from general relativity in the plunge-merger-ringdown stage. As first step, we focus on nonprecessing-spin, quasicircular black hole binaries. In comparison to previous works, for each gravitational wave mode, our model can modify, with respect to general-relativistic predictions, the instant at which the amplitude peaks, the instantaneous frequency at this time instant, and the value of the peak amplitude. We use this waveform model to explore several questions considering both synthetic-data injections and two gravitational wave signals. In particular, we find that deviations from the peak gravitational wave amplitude and instantaneous frequency can be constrained to about $20\%$ with GW150914. Alarmingly, we find that GW200129_065458 shows a strong violation of general relativity. We interpret this result as a false violation, either due to waveform systematics (mismodeling of spin precession) or due to data-quality issues depending on one's interpretation of this event. This illustrates the use of parametrized waveform models as tools to investigate systematic errors in plain general relativity. The results with GW200129_065458 also vividly demonstrate the importance of waveform systematics and of glitch mitigation procedures when interpreting tests of general relativity with current gravitational wave observations.

description: This work explores the application of various supervised classification approaches using prosodic information for the identification of spoken North Sámi language varieties. Dialects are language varieties that enclose characteristics specific for a given region or community. These characteristics reflect segmental and suprasegmental (prosodic) differences but also high-level properties such as lexical and morphosyntactic. One aspect that is of particular interest and that has not been studied extensively is how the differences in prosody may underpin the potential differences among different dialects. To address this, this work focuses on investigating the standard acoustic prosodic features of energy, fundamental frequency, spectral tilt, duration, and their combinations, using sequential and context-independent supervised classification methods, and evaluated separately over two different units in speech: words and syllables. The primary aim of this work is to gain a better understanding on the role of prosody in identifying among the different language varieties. Our results show that prosodic information holds an important role in distinguishing between the five areal varieties of North Sámi where the inclusion of contextual information for all acoustic prosodic features is critical for the identification of dialects for words and syllables.

We successfully sequenced a female paratype (“ allotype ”). Following Buchner & Šumpich (2018) both species are separable only in female genitalia whereas the DNA barcode is specifically distinct. However the latter authors found a considerable intraspecific divergence which requires further assessment.

Modeling the submillimeter emission from the Cepheus A young stellar cluster: Evidence for large scale collapse

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: Evidence for a large scale flow of low density gas onto the Cepheus A young stellar cluster is presented. Observations of K-band near-infrared and multi-transition CS and N2H+ millimeter line emission are shown in relation to a sub-millimeter map of the cool dust around the most embedded stars. The near-infrared emission is offset from the dust peak suggesting a shift in the location of star formation over the history of the core. The CS emission is concentrated toward the core center but N2H+ peaks in two main cores offset from the center, opposite to the chemistry observed in low mass cores. A starless core with strong CS but weak N2H+ emission is found toward the western edge of the region. The average CS(2-1) spectrum over the cluster forming core is asymmetrically self-absorbed suggesting infall. We analyze the large scale dynamics by applying a one-dimensional radiative transfer code to a model spherical core with constant temperature and linewidth, and a density profile measured from an archival 850 micron map of the region. The best fit model that matches the three CS profiles requires a low CS abundance in the core and an outer, infalling envelope with a low density and undepleted CS abundance. The integrated intensities of the two N2H+ lines is well matched with a constant N2H+ abundance. The envelope infall velocity is tightly constrained by the CS(2-1) asymmetry and is sub-sonic but the size of the infalling region is poorly determined. The picture of a high density center with depleted CS slowly accreting a low density outer envelope with normal CS abundance suggests that core growth occurs at least partially by the dissipation of turbulent support on large scales.

description: In the context of predicting the behaviour of chaotic systems, Schroer, Sauer, Ott and Yorke conjectured in 1998 that if a dynamical system defined by a smooth diffeomorphism $T$ of a Riemannian manifold $X$ admits an attractor with a natural measure $μ$ of information dimension smaller than $k$, then $k$ time-delayed measurements of a one-dimensional observable $h$ are generically sufficient for $μ$-almost sure prediction of future measurements of $h$. In a previous paper we established this conjecture in the setup of injective Lipschitz transformations $T$ of a compact set $X$ in Euclidean space with an ergodic $T$-invariant Borel probability measure $μ$. In this paper we prove the conjecture for all (also non-invertible) Lipschitz systems on compact sets with an arbitrary Borel probability measure, and establish an upper bound for the decay rate of the measure of the set of points where the prediction is subpar. This partially confirms a second conjecture by Schroer, Sauer, Ott and Yorke related to empirical prediction algorithms as well as algorithms estimating the dimension and number of required delayed measurements (the so-called embedding dimension) of an observed system. We also prove general time-delay prediction theorems for locally Lipschitz or Hölder systems on Borel sets in Euclidean space.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quantum Ising model is an exactly solvable model of quantum phase transition. This paper gives an exact solution when the system is driven through the critical point at finite rate. The evolution goes through a series of Landau-Zener level anticrossings when pairs of quasiparticles with opposite pseudomomenta get excited with probability depending on the transition rate. Average density of defects excited in this way scales like a square root of the transition rate. This scaling is the same as the scaling obtained when the standard Kibble-Zurek mechanism of thermodynamic second order phase transitions is applied to the quantum phase transition in the Ising model.

description: There is little information available on the uptake of nutrients by well managed tropical food crops, particularly as related to stage of growth. The present studies were carried out to provide this information which is important as a basis for the fertilization of five important food crops of the tropics. Entire plants of these crops growing at adequate levels of fertility were dug up at intervals over an entire cropping season, divided into leaves, stems, fruits and roots, dried, weighed and analyzed for N, P, K, Ca and Mg. With intensive management, taniers (Xanthosoma spp.), cassava (Manihot esculenta), pigeon peas (Cajanus cajan), plantains (Musa acuminata χ M. balbisiana), and yams (Dioscorea rotundata) under humid tropical conditions yielded 4.2, 10.5, 2, 8.0 and 51.6 metric tons/ha of edible dry matter, respectively. Maximum uptake of nutrients in kg/ha by the crops were: Taniers = Ν - 125, Ρ - 15, Κ - 156, Ca - 25; Cassava = Ν - 204, Ρ - 12, Κ - 222, Mg - 33, Ca - 86; Pigeon peas = Ν - 216, Ρ - 12, Κ - 168, Mg - 19, Ca - 54; Plantains = Ν - 275, Ρ - 24, Κ - 569, Mg - 48, Ca - 136 and Yams = Ν - 190, Ρ - 25, Κ - 215, Mg - 90, Ca - 35. Edible dry matter produced per kg of NPK used by the plant was 11.9, 24.0, 14.2, 9.2 and 5.1 for yams, cassava, taniers, plantains, and pigeon peas, respectively.

description: We analyze the operation of melting probes as a Stefan problem for the liquid/solid interface surrounding the probe. We assume that the liquid layer is thin and, therefore, amenable to analysis by lubrication theory. The resulting Stefan problem is solvable in closed form. The solution determines the dependence of the penetration speed on the temperature differential between the probe and the surrounding ice, the size, shape and weight of the probe, the viscosity of liquid water and the thermal properties of solid ice.

description: In our continuing effort to understand hadronic matter at high density, we have developed a unified field theoretic formalism for dense skyrmion matter using a single Lagrangian to describe simultaneously both matter and meson fluctuations and studied in-medium properties of hadrons. Dropping the quartic Skyrme term, we incorporate into our previous Lagrangian the vector mesons rho and omega in a form which is consistent with the symmetries of QCD. The results that we have obtained, reported here, expose a hitherto unsuspected puzzle associated with the role the omega meson plays at short distance. Since the omega meson couples to baryon density, it leads to a pseudo-gap scenario for the chiral symmetry phase transition, which is at variance with standard scenario of QCD at the phase transition. We find that in the presence of the omega mesons, the scale-anomaly dilaton field is prevented from developing a vanishing vacuum expectation value at the chiral restoration, as a consequence of which the in-medium pion decay constant does not vanish. This seems to indicate that the omega degree of freedom obstructs the vector manifestation which is considered to be a generic feature of effective field theories matched to QCD.

description: Transplanting Giant Cavendish banana explants directly or indirectly at 3, 6 and 9 days into speeding and forestry planter trays were studied. A survival rate of 79 per cent and 83 per cent for direct transplants as compared with 8 9 - 96 per cent for delayed transplants wore recorded. Although indirect, transplanting overall produced better plantlets after 6 weeks, delayed transplanting for 3 and 6 days using forestry planter trays gave biggest and most vigorous plants. The relatively smaller exposed soil surface of the forestry trays reduced the chances of leaf/soil contact and so minimized the incidence of leaf rot. The vertically extended root space (1 1/3" χ 4 3/4") of these trays also allowed for good drainage and plantlets developed elongated but extensive roots with sturdy stems.

description: There is great interest in the development of novel nanomachines that use charge, spin, or energy transport, to enable new sensors with unprecedented measurement capabilities. Electrical and thermal transport in these mesoscopic systems typically involves wave propagation through a nanoscale geometry such as a quantum wire. In this paper we present a general theoretical technique to describe wave propagation through a curved wire of uniform cross-section and lying in a plane, but of otherwise arbitrary shape. The method consists of (i) introducing a local orthogonal coordinate system, the arclength and two locally perpendicular coordinate axes, dictated by the shape of the wire; (ii) rewriting the wave equation of interest in this system; (iii) identifying an effective scattering potential caused by the local curvature; and (iv), solving the associated Lippmann-Schwinger equation for the scattering matrix. We carry out this procedure in detail for the scalar Helmholtz equation with both hard-wall and stress-free boundary conditions, appropriate for the mesoscopic transport of electrons and (scalar) phonons. A novel aspect of the phonon case is that the reflection probability always vanishes in the long-wavelength limit, allowing a simple perturbative (Born approximation) treatment at low energies. Our results show that, in contrast to charge transport, curvature only barely suppresses thermal transport, even for sharply bent wires, at least within the two-dimensional scalar phonon model considered. Applications to experiments are also discussed.

description: The Frankl or Union-Closed Sets conjecture states that for any finite union-closed family of sets $\mathcal{F}$ containing some nonempty set, there is some element $i$ in the ground set $U(\mathcal F) := \bigcup_{S \in \mathcal{F}} S$ of $\mathcal{F}$ such that $i$ is in at least half of the sets in $\mathcal{F}$. In this work, we find new values and bounds for the least integer $FC(k, n)$ such that any union-closed family containing $FC(k, n)$ distinct $k$-sets of an $n$-set $X$ satisfies Frankl's conjecture with an element of $X$. Additionally, we answer an older question of Vaughan regarding symmetry in union-closed families and we give a proof of a recent question posed by Ellis, Ivan and Leader. Finally, we introduce novel local configuration criteria through a generalization of Poonen's Theorem to prove the conjecture for many, previously unknown classes of families.

description: Synthetic data generation has been widely adopted in software testing, data privacy, imbalanced learning, and artificial intelligence explanation. In all such contexts, it is crucial to generate plausible data samples. A common assumption of approaches widely used for data generation is the independence of the features. However, typically, the variables of a dataset depend on one another, and these dependencies are not considered in data generation leading to the creation of implausible records. The main problem is that dependencies among variables are typically unknown. In this paper, we design a synthetic dataset generator for tabular data that can discover nonlinear causalities among the variables and use them at generation time. State-of-the-art methods for nonlinear causal discovery are typically inefficient. We boost them by restricting the causal discovery among the features appearing in the frequent patterns efficiently retrieved by a pattern mining algorithm. We design a framework for generating synthetic datasets with known causalities to validate our proposal. Broad experimentation on many synthetic and real datasets with known causalities shows the effectiveness of the proposed method.

description: A factorial design was used to ascertain the vegetative and reproductive responses of thirty Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. accessions to three sowing dates. Data for the number of days to 50% flowering and the plant heights at that stage are presented herein. Preflowering durations and plant heights varied between planting dates and accessions. The interaction between plant height and sowing date was significant, but negligible variation occurred in the temperature and the daylength at 50% flowering. Data did not facilitate delineation of the relative photoperiodic sensitivity of the accessions but facilitated classification based on the average preflowering phase over the three planting dates.

 Remarks. Sorhagenia orocorsa was described from a male holotype and separated from S. janiszewskae Riedl, 1962 by characters of the male genitalia (Varenne & Nel 2016). However, the DNA barcode of the holotype fully corresponds with the latter species. A careful re-examination of alleged diagnostic characters showed that they underlie considerable intraspecific variation (Wheeler et al. 2021).

description: In this paper, we prove two main results. The first one is to give a new condition for the existence of two-parameter $p, q$-variation path integrals. Our condition of locally bounded $p,q$-variation is more natural and easy to verify than those of Young. This result can be easily generalized to multi-parameter case. The second result is to define the integral of local time $\int_{-\infty}^\infty\int_0^t g(s,x)d_{s,x}L_s(x)$ pathwise and then give generalized It$\hat {\rm o}$'s formula when $\nabla^-f(s,x)$ is only of bounded $p,q$-variation in $(s,x)$. In the case that $g(s,x)=\nabla^-f(s,x)$ is of locally bounded variation in $(s,x)$, the integral $\int_{-\infty}^\infty\int_0^t \nabla^-f(s,x)d_{s,x}L_s(x)$ is the Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral and was used in Elworthy, Truman and Zhao \cite{Zhao}. When $g(s,x)=\nabla^-f(s,x)$ is of only locally $p, q$-variation, where $p\geq 1$,$q\geq 1$, and $2q+1>2pq$, the integral is a two-parameter Young integral of $p,q$-variation rather than a Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral. In the special case that $f(s,x)=f(x)$ is independent of $s$, we give a new condition for Meyer's formula and $\int_{-\infty}^\infty L_t(x)d_x\nabla^-f(x)$ is defined pathwise as a Young integral. For this we prove the local time $L_t(x)$ is of $p$-variation in $x$ for each $t\geq 0$, for each $p>2$ almost surely ($p$-variation in the sense of Lyons and Young, i.e. $\sup\limits_{E: \ a finite partition of [-N,N]} \sum\limits_{i=1}^m|L_t(x_i)-L_t(x_{i-1})|^p
The Budget Enforcement Act : implications for children and families

Year: 2023

description: This analysis of the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990(BEA) and its implications for public financing of education and other children's services notes that voters want more and better education and related services, and at the same time want to pay less in taxes and balance budgets at every governmental level. The first section details recent changes in budget process rules. The 1995 budget resolution signals the intention of Congress to retool some BEA procedures to suit its new agenda. The second section looks at the effect changes in rules have had on legislative strategy and funding outcomes for children's programs. Relevant changes include dramatic lowering of the caps on discretionary spending; construction of fire walls between defense and non-defense discretionary spending;pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) spending to pay for tax cuts with cuts in appropriations; and restoration of fixed deficit targets to rein in automatic growth in mandatory spending. The third section shows how BEA rules can interact with current proposals under debate in Congress, and the final section suggests items for further discussion. The paper concludes by taking the position that advocates of children's causes should focus their efforts on influencing budget and program politics rather than trying to rewrite budget process rules.
Baryon Magnetic Moments in Relativistic Quark Models

description: It is shown that the phenomenological description of the baryon magnetic moments in the quark model carries over to the Poincaré covariant extension of the model. This applies to all the three common forms of relativistic kinematics with structureless constituent currents, which are covariant under the corresponding kinematic subgroups. In instant and front form kinematics the calculated magnetic moments depend strongly on the constituent masses, while in point form kinematics the magnetic moments are fairly insensitive to both the quark masses and the wave function model. The baryon charge radii and magnetic moments are determined in the different forms of kinematics for the light-flavor, strange and charm hyperons. The wave function model is determined by a fit to the electromagnetic form factor of the proton.

Vector-pseudoscalar two-meson distribution amplitudes in three-body $B$ meson decays

description: We study three-body nonleptonic decays $B\to VVP$ by introducing two-meson distribution amplitudes for the vector-pseudoscalar pair, such that the analysis is simplified into the one for two-body decays. The twist-2 and twist-3 $ϕK$ two-meson distribution amplitudes, associated with longitudinally and transversely polarized $ϕ$ mesons, are constrained by the experimental data of the $τ\toϕKν$ and $B\toϕKγ$ branching ratios. We then predict the $B\toϕKγ$ and $B\toϕϕK$ decay spectra in the $ϕK$ invariant mass. Since the resonant contribution in the $ϕK$ channel is negligible, the above decay spectra provide a clean test for the application of two-meson distribution amplitudes to three-body $B$ meson decays.

The role of interfacial adhesion on minimum wear particle size and roughness evolution

description: Adhesion between two bodies is a key parameter in wear processes. At the macroscale, strong adhesive bonds are known to lead to high wear rates, as observed in clean metal-on-metal contact. Reducing the strength of the interfacial adhesion is then desirable, and techniques such as lubrication and surface passivation are employed to this end. Still, little is known about the influence of adhesion on the microscopic processes of wear. In particular, the effects of interfacial adhesion on the wear particle size and on the surface roughness evolution are not clear, and are therefore addressed here by means of molecular dynamics simulations. We show that, at short timescales, the surface morphology and not the interfacial adhesion strength dictates the minimum size of wear particles. However, at longer timescales, adhesion alters the particle motion and thus the wear rate and the surface morphology.
