description: The thermodynamics of three-dimensional asymptotically flat cosmological solutions that play the same role than the BTZ black holes in the anti-de Sitter case is derived and explained from holographic properties of flat space. It is shown to coincide with the flat-space limit of the thermodynamics of the inner black hole horizon on the one hand and the semi-classical approximation to the gravitational partition function associated to the entropy of the outer horizon on the other. This leads to the insight that it is the Massieu function that is universal in the sense that it can be computed at either horizon.

description: We introduce two generalizations of Kochen-Specker (KS) sets: projective KS sets and generalized KS sets. We then use projective KS sets to characterize all graphs for which the chromatic number is strictly larger than the quantum chromatic number. Here, the quantum chromatic number is defined via a nonlocal game based on graph coloring. We further show that from any graph with separation between these two quantities, one can construct a classical channel for which entanglement assistance increases the one-shot zero-error capacity. As an example, we exhibit a new family of classical channels with an exponential increase.

description: Topological protection ensures stability of information and particle transport against perturbations. We explore experimentally and computationally the topologically protected transport of magnetic colloids above spatially inhomogeneous magnetic patterns, revealing that transport complexity can be encoded in both the driving loop and the pattern. Complex patterns support intricate transport modes when the microparticles are subjected to simple time-periodic loops of a uniform magnetic field. We design a pattern featuring a topological defect that functions as an attractor or a repeller of microparticles, as well as a pattern that directs microparticles along a prescribed complex trajectory. Using simple patterns and complex loops, we simultaneously and independently control the motion of several identical microparticles differing only in their positions above the pattern. Combining complex patterns and complex loops we transport microparticles from unknown locations to predefined positions and then force them to follow arbitrarily complex trajectories concurrently. Our findings pave the way for new avenues in transport control and dynamic self-assembly in colloidal science.

Microscopic theory for the Doppler velocimetry of spin propagation in semiconductor quantum wells

description: We provide a microscopic theory for the Doppler velocimetry of spin propagation in the presence of spatial inhomogeneity, driving electric field and the spin orbit coupling in semiconductor quantum wells in a wide range of temperature regime based on the kinetic spin Bloch equation. It is analytically shown that under an applied electric field, the spin density wave gains a time-dependent phase shift $ϕ(t)$. Without the spin-orbit coupling, the phase shift increases linearly with time and is equivalent to a normal Doppler shift in optical measurements. Due to the joint effect of spin-orbit coupling and the applied electric field, the phase shift behaviors differently at the early and the later stages. At the early stage, the phase shifts are the same with or without the spin-orbit coupling. While at the later stage, the phase shift deviates from the normal Doppler one when the spin-orbit coupling is present. The crossover time from the early normal Doppler behavior to the anomalous one at the later stage is inversely proportional to the spin diffusion coefficient, wave vector of the spin density wave and the spin-orbit coupling strength. In the high temperature regime, the crossover time becomes large as a result of the decreased spin diffusion coefficient. The analytic results capture all the quantitative features of the experimental results, while the full numerical calculations agree quantitatively well with the experimental data obtained from the Doppler velocimetry of spin propagation [Yang {\it et al.}, Nat. Phys. {\bf 8}, 153 (2012)]. We further predict that the coherent spin precession, originally thought to be broken down at high temperature, is robust up to the room temperature for narrow quantum wells. We point out that one has to carry out the experiments longer to see the effect of the coherent spin precession at higher temperature due to the larger crossover time.

description: This study investigates the factors influencing university student’s living arrangement choice, the distance between home and the university, and mode choice. A closed-form probabilistic choice modelling formulation is developed to model three choices jointly: student’s living arrangement choice, the distance between home and the university, and student’s typical commuting mode choice to campus. The proposed joint model harnesses the power of both Random Utility Maximisation (RUM) and Cobb–Douglas direct utility maximisation principle. This study identifies the nature and extent of various systematic and random factors influencing university student’s residence and mode choice behaviour to provide evidence for the planners and policymakers to act upon. Walk and cycling accessibility appear to be the most influential factor in the distance between home and the university. The results suggest that affordable housing choices by university campuses can significantly increase the number of active mode users among the student population in Toronto.
Supernova 2003ie Was Likely a Faint Type IIP Event

description: We present new photometric observations of Supernova (SN) 2003ie starting one month before discovery, obtained serendipitously while observing its host galaxy. With only a weak upper limit derived on the mass of its progenitor (<25 M_sun) from pre-explosion studies, this event could be a potential exception to the "red supergiant (RSG) problem" (the lack of high mass RSGs exploding as Type IIP supernovae). However, this is true only if SN2003ie was a Type IP event, something which has never been determined. Using recently derived core collapse SN light curve templates, as well as by comparison to other known SNe, we find that SN2003ie was indeed a likely Type IIP event. However, it is found to be a member of the faint Type IIP class. Previous members of this class have been shown to arise from relatively low mass progenitors (<12 M_sun). It therefore seems unlikely that this SN had a massive RSG progenitor. The use of core collapse SN light curve templates is shown to be helpful in classifying SNe with sparse coverage. These templates are likely to become more robust as large homogeneous samples of core collapse events are collected.

description: We study the presence of discrete gauge symmetries in D-brane semi-realistic compactifications. After establishing the constraints on the transformation behaviour of the chiral matter for the presence of a discrete gauge symmetry we perform a systematic search for discrete gauge symmetries within local semi-realistic D-brane realizations, based on four D-brane stacks, of the MSSM and the MSSM with three right-handed neutrinos. The systematic search reveals that Proton hexality, a discrete symmetry which ensures the absence of R-parity violating terms as well as the absence of dangerous dimension 5 proton decay operators, is only rarely realized. Moreover, none of the semi-realistic local D-brane configurations exhibit any family dependent discrete gauge symmetry.

description: The Stochastic User Equilibrium (SUE) traffic assignment model is a well-known approach for investigating the behaviours of travellers on congested road networks. SUE compensates for driver/modelling uncertainty of the route travel costs by supposing the costs include stochastic terms. Two key challenges for SUE modelling, however, are capturing route correlations and dealing with unrealistic routes. Numerous correlation-based SUE models have been proposed, but issues remain over both internal consistency and choice set robustness. This paper formulates (and proves solution existence for) new internally consistent SUE formulations of GEV structure and correction term logit route choice models, where the functional forms in the correlation components are based upon generalised, flow-dependent congested costs, rather than e.g. length / free-flow travel time as done typically. Numerical experiments are then conducted on the Sioux Falls and Winnipeg networks, where computational feasibility for obtaining internally consistent solutions, choice set robustness, and internal consistency are assessed/compared.

description: We present a method for semantically transferring the visual appearance of one natural image to another. Specifically, our goal is to generate an image in which objects in a source structure image are "painted" with the visual appearance of their semantically related objects in a target appearance image. To integrate semantic information into our framework, our key idea is to leverage a pre-trained and fixed Vision Transformer (ViT) model. Specifically, we derive novel disentangled representations of structure and appearance extracted from deep ViT features. We then establish an objective function that splices the desired structure and appearance representations, interweaving them together in the space of ViT features. Based on our objective function, we propose two frameworks of semantic appearance transfer -- "Splice", which works by training a generator on a single and arbitrary pair of structure-appearance images, and "SpliceNet", a feed-forward real-time appearance transfer model trained on a dataset of images from a specific domain. Our frameworks do not involve adversarial training, nor do they require any additional input information such as semantic segmentation or correspondences. We demonstrate high-resolution results on a variety of in-the-wild image pairs, under significant variations in the number of objects, pose, and appearance. Code and supplementary material are available in our project page: splice-vit.github.io.

description: We introduce a new algorithm called the Free-pipeline Fast Inner Product (FFIP) and its hardware architecture that improve an under-explored fast inner-product algorithm (FIP) proposed by Winograd in 1968. Unlike the unrelated Winograd minimal filtering algorithms for convolutional layers, FIP is applicable to all machine learning (ML) model layers that can mainly decompose to matrix multiplication, including fully-connected, convolutional, recurrent, and attention/transformer layers. We implement FIP for the first time in an ML accelerator then present our FFIP algorithm and generalized architecture which inherently improve FIP's clock frequency and, as a consequence, throughput for a similar hardware cost. Finally, we contribute ML-specific optimizations for the FIP and FFIP algorithms and architectures. We show that FFIP can be seamlessly incorporated into traditional fixed-point systolic array ML accelerators to achieve the same throughput with half the number of multiply-accumulate (MAC) units, or it can double the maximum systolic array size that can fit onto devices with a fixed hardware budget. Our FFIP implementation for non-sparse ML models with 8 to 16-bit fixed-point inputs achieves higher throughput and compute efficiency than the best-in-class prior solutions on the same type of compute platform.

description: We consider a noncommutative description of graphene. This description consists of a Dirac equation for massless Dirac fermions plus noncommutative corrections, which are treated in the presence of an external magnetic field. We argue that, being a two-dimensional Dirac system, graphene is particularly interesting to test noncommutativity. We find that momentum noncommutativity affects the energy levels of graphene, but that it does not entail any kind of correction to the Hall conductivity.

description: Battery management systems (BMS) are becoming increasingly important in the modern age, where clean energy awareness is getting more prominent. They are responsible for controlling large battery packs in modern electric vehicles. However, conventional solutions rely only on a wired design, which adds manufacturing cost and complexity. Recent research has considered wireless solutions for the BMS. However, it is still challenging to develop a solution that considers both the active in-vehicle and the external second-life applications. The battery passport initiative aims to keep track of the batteries, both during active and inactive use cases. There is a need to provide a secure design while considering energy and cost-efficient solutions. We aim to fill this gap by proposing a wireless solution based on near-field communication (NFC) that extends previous work and provides a unified architecture for both use cases. To provide protection against common wireless threats, an advanced security analysis is performed, as well as a system design analysis for the wake-up process that reduces the daily power consumption of the stored battery packs from milli- to microwatts.

This system is the one associated with the Wiener-Hopf integral equation obtained from the theory of random walks. The derived approach is an alternative to the existing literature and we tested it against direct calculations from both discrete- and continuous-time random walks in a manageable, but meaningful, example. Within this framework, the Sparre Andersen theorem results to be a boundary condition for the system.

description: Most previous works study the evolution of cooperation in a structured population by commonly employing an isolated single network. However, realistic systems are composed of many interdependent networks coupled with each other, rather than the isolated single one. In this paper, we consider a system including two interacting networks with the same size, entangled with each other by the introduction of probabilistic interconnections. We introduce the public goods game into such system, and study how the probabilistic interconnection influences the evolution of cooperation of the whole system and the coupling effect between two layers of interdependent networks. Simulation results show that there exists an intermediate region of interconnection probability leading to the maximum cooperation level in the whole system. Interestingly, we find that at the optimal interconnection probability the fraction of internal links between cooperators in two layers is maximal. Also, even if initially there are no cooperators in one layer of interdependent networks, cooperation can still be promoted by probabilistic interconnection, and the cooperation levels in both layers can more easily reach an agreement at the intermediate interconnection probability. Our results may be helpful in understanding the cooperative behavior in some realistic interdependent networks and thus highlight the importance of probabilistic interconnection on the evolution of cooperation.

description: In this work, we show that a quasi-one-dimensional $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling is a DIII class, time-reversal invariant, topological superconductor (TS) which supports a Majorana Kramers Doublet (MKD) at each end of the TS. A MKD is a pair of Majorana end states (MESs) protected by time-reversal symmetry (TRS). An external magnetic field breaks TRS and drives the system from DIII to D class in which case a single MES appears at each end of the TS. We show that a MKD induces resonant Andreev reflection with zero bias conductance peak of $4e^2/h$. Experimental realizations of the proposed model are discussed.

A dual role potential function is obtained as a component of the quasi-symplectic dynamics. Based on a stochastic interpretation different from the traditional Ito's and Stratonovich's, we show the corresponding steady state distribution is the familiar Boltzmann-Gibbs type for arbitrary noise strength. The result provides a new angle for understanding processes without detailed balance and can be verified by experiments.

Quantum measurement and the first law of thermodynamics: the energy cost of measurement is the work value of the acquired information

description: The energy cost of measurement is an interesting fundamental question, and may have profound implications for quantum technologies. In the context of Maxwell's demon, it is often stated that measurement has no minimum energy cost, while information has a work value, even though these statements can appear contradictory. However, as we elucidate, these statements do no refer to the cost paid by the measuring device. Here we show that it is only when a measuring device has access to a zero temperature reservoir - that is, never - that the measurement requires no energy. All real measuring devices pay the cost that a heat engine pays to obtain the work value of the information they acquire.

description: Gewalt und Macht kennzeichneten den Alltag in nationalsozialistischen Konzentrationslagern. Das SS-Personal herrschte mit Brutalität und Gewalt über die inhaftierten Gefangenen. Unter diesem SS-Aufsichtspersonal befanden sich auch Frauen, die neben ihren männlichen Kollegen ebenfalls grausame Taten begingen. Die Gesellschaft und Forschung der Nachkriegszeit beachteten Frauen lange Zeit nicht als NS-Täterinnen. Dennoch waren es teilweise gerade Frauen, die durch ihr besonders brutales Handeln in nationalsozialistischen Konzentrationslagern herausstachen. Eine von ihnen stellt die ehemalige KZ-Aufseherin Hermine Braunsteiner dar, die auch von den weiblichen Häftlingen „Kobyla“ bzw. „Stute“ genannt wurde. Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit eben jener NS-Täterin, ihren Gräueltaten und ihrer justiziellen Verfolgung in Österreich (Volksgerichtsverfahren 1946-1949) und Deutschland (Düsseldorfer Majdanek-Prozess 1975-1981). Eine Analyse der Aussagen von weiblichen Zeuginnen vor den beiden Gerichten soll vor allem weibliche Täterschaft im Nationalsozialismus erklären und sichtbar machen. Mit einer Analyse der Prozessberichterstattung zum Düsseldorfer Majdanek-Prozess sollen die stereotype Darstellung weiblicher Täterschaft der Nachkriegsgesellschaft und der öffentliche Umgang mit NS-Täterinnen untersucht werden. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, weibliche Täterschaft im Kontext Konzentrationslager, sowie die damit einhergehende Gewalt aufzuzeigen. Außerdem soll die Analyse der Prozessberichterstattung den Umgang der Nachkriegsgesellschaft mit NS-Täterinnen aufzeigen und die gesellschaftlich verfestigten Weiblichkeitsbilder zur Zeit der Prozesse infrage stellen, insbesondere vor dem Hintergrund, dass Hermine Braunsteiner ihre Machtposition für Karrierismus und sozialen Aufstieg nutzte.

description: Light-matter coupling is investigated by rotating, by an angle θ, the polarization of linearly polarized microwaves with respect to the long-axis of GaAs/AlGaAs Hall-bar electron devices. At low microwave power, P, experiments show a strong sinusoidal variation in the diagonal resistance R_{xx} vs. θat the oscillatory extrema, indicating a linear polarization sensitivity in the microwave radiation-induced magnetoresistance oscillations. Surprisingly, the phase shift θ_{0} for maximal oscillatory R_{xx} response under photoexcitation appears dependent upon the radiation-frequency f, the extremum in question, and the magnetic field orientation or sgn(B).

description: Langrange duality theorems for vector and set optimization problems which are based on an consequent usage of infimum and supremum (in the sense greatest lower and least upper bounds with respect to a partial ordering) have been recently proven. In this note, we provide an alternative proof of strong duality for such problems via suitable stability and subdifferetial notions. In contrast to most of the related results in the literature, the space of dual variables is the same as in the scalar case, i.e., a dual variable is a vector rather than an operator. We point out that duality with operators is an easy consequence of duality with vectors as dual variables.

description: This thesis employs theoretical frameworks from the work of philosopher Giorgio Agamben to explore the relationship of Sufism and the law in The Remedy for the Questioner by Ibn Khaldun. Considering the lack of attention given to this treatise in Khaldunian studies, I argue for its utility in understanding his view of Sufism and its incorporation. I also argue for the analysis of Ibn Khaldun’s religious and mystical beliefs as a productive line of inquiry. I make an intervention in our understanding of Ibn Khalduun and his views of Sufism by exploring his views of Sufism through Agamben’s ideas of rule, law, and form of life. My methodology relies on close textual analysis of the treatise, incorporating comparison to Ibn Khaldun’s other works. My analysis reveals that Ibn Khaldun viewed Sufis who had fulfilled the Sufi path as above the law, capable of providing legal insights and guidance because of their divine knowledge. I suggest that Ibn Khaldun’s view of Sufis portrays a Sufi form of life in which their ascetic practices and behaviors place them within a unique status in society. In applying Agamben’s theory to an Islamic context, I make an intervention in ascetic studies and open up future lines of inquiry into Ibn Khaldun and Sufism.

description: In the junctions with a strong Josephson coupling and a pronounced interfacial pair breaking, the magnetic interference patterns of the Josephson current are shown to differ substantially from the standard Fraunhofer shape. The Fraunhofer pattern occurs, when Josephson couplings are weak. The narrow peak of the critical current, centered at the zero magnetic field, and the suppressed hills at finite field values are the characteristic features of the non-Fraunhofer magnetic field modulation of the critical current, obtained in this paper.

title: Nutzungsmotive und Zahlungsbereitschaft von Konsument*innen bei linearem Fernsehen und Streaming-Diensten im Vergleich
Creators: name: Göbner, Anna
Year: 2023

description: Ziel diese Masterarbeit war es, durch die Darstellung der theoretischen Grundlagen aus der kommunikationswissenschaftlichen Rezeptionsforschung und volkswirtschaftlicher Ansätze zur Zahlungsbereitschaft die Basis für eine empirische Untersuchung im Bereich des linearen Fernsehens und Streaming-Dienste zu legen. Es sollte ein Vergleich zwischen den beiden Anbietern von audiovisuellen Medien unternommen werden, um Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede in den Nutzungsmotiven und der Zahlungsbereitschaft herauszukristallisieren. Die Rezeptionsforschung wurde durch Theorien der Selektionsforschung, dem Uses-and-Gratifications-Approach und Nutzenansatz näher erläutert. Auf volkswirtschaftlicher Ebene war neben der Angebot-und-Nachfrage Theorie das Konzept der Zahlungsbereitschaft Hauptaugenmerk der theoretischen Aufbereitung. Um beide Ansätze miteinander zu vereinen und im Hinblick auf lineares Fernsehen und Streaming-Dienste zu vergleichen wurde eine qualitative Online-Umfrage durchgeführt. Bei dieser wurden die Teilnehmer*innen gebeten verschiedene Fragen zu ihrer linearen Fernsehnutzung und dem Gebrauch von Streaming-Diensten zu beantworten. Nutzungsgründe und Kosten, sowie die Bereitschaft für diese zu bezahlen waren wesentliche Bestandteile der Befragung. Insgesamt nahmen 55 Personen an der Umfrage teil, wobei 46 Interviews für die empirische Forschung ausgewertet werden konnten. Die Umfrageergebnisse wurden analysiert, im Anschluss interpretiert und haben gezeigt, dass vor allem die Nutzungsmotive zwischen linearem Fernsehen und Streaming-Diensten sehr unterschiedlich sind. Auch im Bereich der Kosten für diese Inhalte weisen die Nutzer*innen beider Medienarten unterschiedliche Merkmale auf. Wie die kommunikationswissenschaftlichen Theorien eingangs gezeigt haben, kann durch die Befragung bestätigt werden, dass es sich bei der Auswahl der audiovisuellen Medien um eine sehr individuelle Entscheidung handelt. Auch im Hinblick auf altersspezifische Unterschiede konnten viele Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten erkannt werden, da Menschen der Generation 50+ häufiger lineares Fernsehen konsumieren als jüngere, aber dennoch viele von ihnen zusätzlich Streaming-Dienste konsumieren. Zum Abschluss wurden die zu Beginn der Masterarbeit gestellten Forschungsfragen anhand der Ergebnisse beantwortet, ein Fazit gezogen, Hypothesen generiert und ein Ausblick für zukünftige Forschungen auf diesem Gebiet gegeben.

description: We report observations of type III radio bursts at decimeter wavelengths (type IIIdm bursts) -- signatures of suprathermal electron beams propagating in the low corona -- using the new technique of radio dynamic imaging spectroscopy provided by the recently upgraded Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). For the first time, type IIIdm bursts were imaged with high time and frequency resolution over a broad frequency band, allowing electron beam trajectories in the corona to be deduced. Together with simultaneous hard X-ray (HXR) and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) observations, we show these beams emanate from an energy release site located in the low corona at a height below ~15 Mm, and propagate along a bundle of discrete magnetic loops upward into the corona. Our observations enable direct measurements of the plasma density along the magnetic loops, and allow us to constrain the diameter of these loops to be less than 100 km. These over-dense and ultra-thin loops reveal the fundamentally fibrous structure of the Sun's corona. The impulsive nature of the electron beams, their accessibility to different magnetic field lines, and the detailed structure of the magnetic release site revealed by the radio observations indicate that the localized energy release is highly fragmentary in time and space, supporting a bursty reconnection model that involves secondary magnetic structures for magnetic energy release and particle acceleration.

description: By studying the Euclidean partition function on a cone, we argue that pure and mixed gravitational anomalies generate a "Casimir momentum" which manifests itself as parity violating coefficients in the hydrodynamic stress tensor and charge current. The coefficients generated by these anomalies enter at a lower order in the hydrodynamic gradient expansion than would be naively expected. In 1+1 dimensions, the gravitational anomaly affects coefficients at zeroth order in the gradient expansion. The mixed anomaly in 3+1 dimensions controls the value of coefficients at first order in the gradient expansion.

description: Microresonator optical frequency combs based on cascaded four-wave mixing are potentially attractive as a multi-wavelength source for on-chip optical communications. In this paper we compare time domain coherence, radio-frequency (RF) intensity noise, and individual line optical communications performance for combs generated from two different silicon nitride microresonators. The comb generated by one microresonator forms directly with lines spaced by a single free spectral range (FSR) and exhibits high coherence, low noise, and excellent 10 Gbit/s optical communications results. The comb generated by the second microresonator forms initially with multiple FSR line spacing, with additional lines later filling to reach single FSR spacing. This comb exhibits degraded coherence, increased intensity noise, and severely degraded communications performance. This study is to our knowledge the first to simultaneously investigate and observe a correlation between the route to comb formation, the coherence, noise, and optical communications performance of a Kerr comb.

description: This report attempts to capture the essential workings of gauge links (Wilson lines) inside gauge-invariant formulations of parton distribution functions in QCD and gain some deeper insight into their key (renormalization) properties. We show, in particular, that the one-loop anomalous dimension of the Cherednikov-Stefanis quark TMD PDF is in the lightcone gauge $A^+=0$, combined with the Mandelstam--Leibbrandt pole prescription, the same as that obtained in the special covariant gauge $a=-3$, leaving no uncanceled rapidity singularities.
