description: We perform a quantization of the loop gravity phase space purely in terms of spinorial variables, which have recently been shown to provide a direct link between spin network states and simplicial geometries. The natural Hilbert space to represent these spinors is the Bargmann space of holomorphic square-integrable functions over complex numbers. We show the unitary equivalence between the resulting generalized Bargmann space and the standard loop quantum gravity Hilbert space by explicitly constructing the unitary map. The latter maps SU(2)-holonomies, when written as a function of spinors, to their holomorphic part. We analyze the properties of this map in detail. We show that the subspace of gauge invariant states can be characterized particularly easy in this representation of loop gravity. Furthermore, this map provides a tool to efficiently calculate physical quantities since integrals over the group are exchanged for straightforward integrals over the complex plane.

description: In this paper, the problem of creating mathematical models of acrobatic elements based on the alteration of the moment of inertia is solved, with diving from a platform serving as an example. The models are created for two types of acrobatics performed during the dive. The models are analyzed with the view to identifying the ways of changing the inertia tensor which would ensure a successful performance of the acrobatic element considered.

description: We consider warped five-dimensional thick braneworlds with four-dimensional Poincaré invariance originated from bulk scalar matter non-minimally coupled to gravity plus a Gauss-Bonnet term. The background field equations as well as the perturbed equations are investigated. A relationship between 4D and 5D Planck masses is studied in general terms. By imposing finiteness of the 4D Planck mass and regularity of the geometry, the localization properties of the tensor modes of the perturbed geometry are analyzed to first order, for a wide class of solutions. In order to explore the gravity localization properties for this model, the normalizability condition for the lowest level of the tensor fluctuations is analyzed. It is found that for the examined class of solutions, gravity in 4 dimensions is recovered if the curvature invariants are regular and the 4D Planck mass is finite. It turns out that both the addition of the Gauss-Bonnet term and the non-minimal coupling between the scalar field and gravity {\it reduce} the value of the 4D Planck mass compared to its value when the scalar field and gravity are minimally coupled and the Gauss-Bonnet term is absent. The above discussed analysis depends on the explicit form of the scalar field (through its non-minimal coupling to gravity), making necessary the construction of explicit solutions in order to get results in closed form, and is illustrated with some examples which constitute smooth generalizations of the so-called Randall-Sundrum braneworld model. These solutions were obtained by making use of a detailed {\it singular perturbation theory} procedure with respect to the non-minimal coupling parameter between the scalar field and gravity, a difficult task that we managed to perform in such a way that all the physically meaningful conditions for the localization of gravity are fully satisfied. From the obtained...

description: Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and let D_m be the dihedral group of order 2m with m= 4t, with t bigger than 2. We classify all finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over D_m and all finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras whose group of group-likes is D_m, by means of the lifting method. Our main result gives an infinite family of non-abelian groups where the classification of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras is completed. Moreover, it provides for each dihedral group infinitely many non-trivial new examples.

description: Bisherige Beschreibungen von Nebentätigkeiten während der konventionellen Fahrt werden in diesem Beitrag nach Ablenkungsarten katalogisiert. Durch die Automatisierung der Fahrzeugführung und der Umgebungsüberwachung wird es dem Fahrzeugführer beim hochautomatisierten Fahren ermöglicht, neue Tätigkeiten im Fahrzeug auszuführen. Jedoch ergeben sich bei Rückübernahmesituationen von der automatisierten zur manuellen Fahrzeugführung neue arbeits-wissenschaftliche Herausforderungen bei der Bedien- und Verstehbarkeit automatisierter Systeme. Der Beitrag gibt einen Ausblick für das weitere Forschungsvorhaben über Reaktionszeiten bei unterschiedlichen Tätigkeiten und Rückübernahmeaufforderungen.

By virtue of this scheme, the method of determining the local unitary equivalence of $n$-qubit states proposed by Kraus is extended to the case for arbitrary dimensional multipartite states.

description: We study generalized matrix models corresponding to n-point Virasoro conformal blocks on Riemann surfaces with arbitrary genus g. Upon AGT correspondence, these describe four dimensional N=2 SU(2)^{n+3g-3} gauge theories with generalized quiver diagrams. We obtain the generalized matrix models from the perturbative evaluation of the Liouville correlation functions and verify the consistency of the description with respect to degenerations of the Riemann surface. Moreover, we derive the Seiberg-Witten curve for the N=2 gauge theory as the spectral curve of the generalized matrix model, thus providing a check of AGT correspondence at all genera.

description: Clinical and biomarker phenotypic associations for carriers of protein function-altering variants may help to elucidate gene function and health effects in populations. We genotyped 1127 Strong Heart Family Study participants for protein function-altering single nucleotide variants (SNV) and indels selected from a low coverage whole exome sequencing of American Indians. We tested the association of each SNV/indel with 35 cardiometabolic traits. Among 1206 variants (average minor allele count = 20, range of 1 to 1064), ~ 43% were not present in publicly available repositories. We identified seven SNV-trait significant associations including a missense SNV at ABCA10 (rs779392624, p = 8 × 10–9) associated with fasting triglycerides, which gene product is involved in macrophage lipid homeostasis. Among non-diabetic individuals, missense SNVs at four genes were associated with fasting insulin adjusted for BMI (PHIL, chr6:79,650,711, p = 2.1 × 10–6; TRPM3, rs760461668, p = 5 × 10–8; SPTY2D1, rs756851199, p = 1.6 × 10–8; and TSPO, rs566547284, p = 2.4 × 10–6). PHIL encoded protein is involved in pancreatic β-cell proliferation and survival, and TRPM3 protein mediates calcium signaling in pancreatic β-cells in response to glucose. A genetic risk score combining increasing insulin risk alleles of these four genes was associated with 53% (95% confidence interval 1.09, 2.15) increased odds of incident diabetes and 83% (95% confidence interval 1.35, 2.48) increased odds of impaired fasting glucose at follow-up. Our study uncovered novel gene-trait associations through the study of protein-coding variants and demonstrates the advantages of association screenings targeting diverse and high-risk populations to study variants absent in publicly available repositories.

description: In questo lavoro di ricerca si vogliono analizzare i feedback degli allievi, per poter sviluppare la consapevolezza rispetto l’adeguatezza delle azioni del docente, la comunicazione e il grado di modifica delle stesse. In questo lavoro di ricerca si desidera mettere l’accento sullo studio degli atteggiamenti e dei comportamenti degli allievi nel descrivere il proprio stato d’animo davanti ad una situazione (di vita reale e/o scolastica); nello specifico di quanto si sentano competenti e motivati nell’individuazione, formulazione, e raggiungimento di un obiettivo e di come una ricerca, una scelta e una comunicazione condivisa di indicatori renda più autentica la valutazione delle competenze acquisite. La ricerca si è svolta in una classe di terza media corso base di scuola media tramite un più percorsi didattici svolti durante l’anno scolastico. Per garantire una valutazione adeguata e autentica e misurare i diversi aspetti risulta evidente la necessità di ricorrere a diverse metodologie di ricerca e studio: questionari, test proiettivi, interviste, osservazioni. Dall’analisi dei risultati ottenuti si è potuto verificare che non si tratta di utilizzare in modo univoco una sola strategia per tipologia ma di integrare più metodi per abbassare rischi e criticità connesse ad ogni metodo.

description: In this work, we present a model based on a competitive dynamics that intends to imitate the processes leading to some characteristics of the geopolitical division. The model departs from very simple principles of geopolitical theory and geometrical considerations, but succeeds to explain general features related to the actual process. At the same time, we will propose an evolutionary explanation to the fact that most capitals (in Eurasia) are located far from the borders or coasts and, in many cases, close to the barycenter of the respective countries.

description: La ricerca si pone l’obiettivo di valutare l’impatto che delle lezioni di italiano svolte in movimento hanno sulla motivazione, sul grado di piacere, sulla concentrazione e sulle competenze acquisite dei bambini. Più precisamente, il mio campione di riferimento è una classe di seconda elementare di 21 allievi. Sin dall’inizio dell’anno, durante le lezioni ho osservato vari comportamenti disattentivi negli alunni che mi hanno portata a voler verificare se delle attività motorie potessero avere degli effetti più positivi sui bambini rispetto a delle tradizionali attività statiche. Ho quindi proposto un primo ciclo di lezioni sullo stesso argomento, ovvero i suoni difficili dell’italiano. Questo era composto da tre attività in movimento durante una settimana e tre lezioni al banco durante la settimana successiva, al termine della quale ho sottoposto dei questionari agli allievi e ne ho intervistato alcuni. Allo stesso modo ho proposto un secondo ciclo di attività, questa volta invertendo l’ordine della modalità di lezioni inserendo prima quelle statiche e successivamente quelle motorie e proponendo anche una verifica per valutare le competenze sui suoni difficili alla fine di ognuna delle due settimane. I dati raccolti evidenziano che le lezioni in movimento sono più apprezzate e possono motivare maggiormente i bambini ma che non vi è un’influenza significativa sulla concentrazione e sulle competenze acquisite.

description: Electron fully spin-polarized edge states in graphene emerged at the interfaces of a nonuniform magnetic field are studied numerically in a tight-binding model, with both the orbital and Zeeman-splitting effects of magnetic field considered. We show that the fully spin-polarized currents can be manipulated by a gate voltage. In order to make use of the fully spin-polarized currents in the spin related transport, a three-terminal experiment is designed and expected to export the fully spin-polarized currents. This may have important applications in spin based nanodevices.

We establish a connection between the (re)construction by means of symplectic tomograms with the construction by means of Naimark positive-definite functions on the Weyl-Heisenberg group. This connection is used to formulate properties which guarantee that tomographic probabilities describe quantum states in the probability representation of quantum mechanics.

description: We have generalized the approach of Brodsky {\it et al.} for the intrinsic charm quark distribution in the nucleons to the light-quark sector involving intrinsic $\bar u, \bar d, s$ and $\bar s$ sea quarks. We compare the calculations with the existing $\bar d - \bar u$, $s + \bar s$, and $\bar u + \bar d - s -\bar s$ data. The good agreement between the theory and the data allows the extraction of the probabilities for the $|uudu\bar{u}>$, $|uudd\bar{d}>$, and $|uuds\bar{s}>$ five-quark Fock states in the proton. We also calculate the $x$-dependence of the intrinsic charm after taking into consideration the QCD evolution of the intrinsic quark distribution.

description: In a multi-stage analysis of 52,436 individuals aged 17-90 across diverse cohorts and biobanks, we train, test, and evaluate a polygenic risk score (PRS) for hypertension risk and progression. The PRS is trained using genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for systolic, diastolic blood pressure, and hypertension, respectively. For each trait, PRS is selected by optimizing the coefficient of variation (CV) across estimated effect sizes from multiple potential PRS using the same GWAS, after which the 3 trait-specific PRSs are combined via an unweighted sum called “PRSsum”, forming the HTN-PRS. The HTN-PRS is associated with both prevalent and incident hypertension at 4-6 years of follow up. This association is further confirmed in age-stratified analysis. In an independent biobank of 40,201 individuals, the HTN-PRS is confirmed to be predictive of increased risk for coronary artery disease, ischemic stroke, type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease.
Machine learning based prediction of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment outcome in patients with treatment-resistant depression
Creators: name: Liu, Xiang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a highly prevalent psychiatric disorder that affects millions of people. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been recommended as a safe, reliable, non-invasive, neurostimulation therapy option for treatment-resistant depression (TRD). The effectiveness of rTMS treatment varies among individuals; thus, predicting the responsiveness to rTMS treatment can reduce unnecessary expenses and improve treatment capacity. In this study, we combined machine learning models with depression rating scales, clinical variables, and demographic data to predict the outcomes and effectiveness of rTMS treatment for TRD patients. Using the clinical data of 356 TRD patients who each received 20 to 30 sessions of rTMS treatment over a 4-6-week period, we examined the predictive value of different depression rating scales and models for various prediction outcomes, at multiple time points. Our optimal baseline models achieved area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.634 and 0.735 for treatment response and remission prediction, respectively, using the Elastic Net. In the longitudinal analysis, using baseline data and early treatment outcomes for 1–3 weeks, all predictive values improved compared with baseline models. In addition, predicting the percentage of symptom improvement was also feasible using longitudinal treatment outcomes, achieving coefficients of determination of 0.277, at the end of week 1, and 0.464, at the end of week 3. We found that the use of depression rating subscales, combined with clinical and demographic data, including anxiety severity, employment status, age, gender, and education level, may produce higher accuracy at baseline. In the longitudinal analysis, the total scores of depression rating scales were the most significant predictors, allowing prediction models to be built using only the total scores, which resulted in high predictive value and interpretability. This work presented a convenient and economical approach for the prediction of rTMS treatment outcomes in TRD patients, using pre-treatment clinical and demographic data alone, without requiring expensive biomarker data. The predictive value was further enhanced by adding longitudinal treatment outcomes. This method is a plausible approach that could be utilized in clinical practice for individualized treatment selection, leading to better treatment outcomes for rTMS in TRD patients.

description: We study characters of recent type Ia supernova (SNIa) data using evolving dark energy models with changing equation of state parameter w. We consider sudden-jump approximation of w for some chosen redshift spans with double transitions, and constrain these models based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method using the SNIa data (Constitution, Union, Union2) together with baryon acoustic oscillation A parameter and cosmic microwave background shift parameter in a flat background. In the double-transition model the Constitution data shows deviation outside 1 sigma from LCDM model at low (z < 0.2) and middle (0.2 < z < 0.4) redshift bins whereas no such deviations are noticeable in the Union and Union2 data. By analyzing the Union members in the Constitution set, however, we show that the same difference is actually due to different calibration of the same Union sample in the Constitution set, and is not due to new data added in the Constitution set. All detected deviations are within 2 sigma from the LCDM world model. From the LCDM mock data analysis, we quantify biases in the dark energy equation of state parameters induced by insufficient data with inhomogeneous distribution of data points in the redshift space and distance modulus errors. We demonstrate that location of peak in the distribution of arithmetic means (computed from the MCMC chain for each mock data) behaves as an unbiased estimator for the average bias, which is valid even for non-symmetric likelihood distributions.

description: Excerpt from report Highlights: The 1967-68 survey of marketing, farm supply, and related service cooperatives showed a continuing upward trend in total business volume but a decrease in number of memberships and organizations between July 1, 1967, and June 30, 1968. Total gross business volume (including intercooperative business) handled by these cooperatives amounted to $22.4 billion. This was an increase of 2.4 percent from the $21.9 billion reported in the previous fiscal year. Total net business, after adjusting the gross figure for business done between cooperatives, amounted to over $17 billion. This was an increase of 2.9 percent from the $16.6 billion net in 1966-67. The total number of farmer cooperatives decreased from 8,125 in 1966-67 to 7,940 in 1967-68, a net decrease of 185 associations. The decline reflects a continuing reorganization trend involving merger, consolidation, and acquisition. Cooperative memberships totaled 6,445,410 in 1967-68, a decrease of less than 1 percent from 6,501,700 memberships reported for 1966-67. The drop continues the long-term trend of declining cooperative memberships due to the decreasing number of farmers in the United States.

description: A few years ago, the mid-IR spectrum of a Weak Line T Tauri Star, CoKu Tau/4, was explained as emission from the inner wall of a circumstellar disk, with the inner disk truncated at ~10 AU. Based on the SED shape and the assumption that it was produced by a single star and its disk, CoKu Tau/4 was classified as a prototypical transitional disk, with a clean inner hole possibly carved out by a planet, some other orbiting body, or by photodissociation. However, recently it has been discovered that CoKu Tau/4 is a close binary system. This implies that the observed mid-IR SED is probably produced by the circumbinary disk. The aim of the present paper is to model the SED of CoKu Tau/4 as arising from the inner wall of a circumbinary disk, with parameters constrained by what is known about the central stars and by a dynamical model for the interaction between these stars and their surrounding disk. In order to fit the Spitzer IRS SED, the binary orbit should be almost circular, implying a small mid-IR variability (10%) related to the variable distances of the stars to the inner wall of the circumbinary disk. Our models suggest that the inner wall of CoKu Tau/4 is located at 1.7a, where a is the semi-major axis of the binary system (a~8AU). A small amount of optically thin dust in the hole (<0.01 lunar masses) helps to improve the fit to the 10microns silicate band. Also, we find that water ice should be absent or have a very small abundance (a dust to gas mass ratio <5.6X10^{-5}). In general, for a binary system with eccentricity e>0, the model predicts mid-IR variability with periods similar to orbital timescales, assuming that thermal equilibrium is reached instantaneously.

Shocks! : trauma, detection, and supernaturalism in Algernon Blackwood
Creators: name: Bouwman, Aveline Hilda
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: The small but growing body of literary criticism surrounding the fiction of Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) tends to characterize his work as late Victorian genre fiction or “weird tales.” Indeed, most scholars situate Blackwood among the ranks of “weird fiction” writers like H.P. Lovecraft, Arthur Machen, and William Hope Hodgson. This thesis traces an alternative contextual web around his literary oeuvre, analyzing Blackwood’s prose fiction against the backdrop of the intense reinvigoration of supernatural belief during the British Occult Revival. Blackwood’s fiction registers the period’s complex interactions between occult enthusiasm and emerging psychodynamic discourses by consistently positioning the mystical and the psychological as analogues for one another. In this thesis, I focus on Blackwood’s fictional interactions with burgeoning theories of human consciousness emerging during the period, which he explores through an occult lens as well as a scientific register. Rather than cementing a dualism between scientific materialism and supernaturalism, Blackwood’s fiction demonstrates that the period’s knowledge production entails more complex exchanges between these seemingly opposed sides. From his fin-de-siècle psychic detective series John Silence to his wartime stories, Blackwood’s prose fiction displays an overarching concern with the interiority of the human mind and the limits of language. I argue that these underexamined aspects of Blackwood’s writing are best characterized as proto-Modernist, thus positing popular origins to many of the perennial themes of high Modernist literature. My thesis is organized into two sections, interposing the historical event of the Great War as the pivotal moment that occasioned a notable shift in Blackwood’s fiction towards a focus on trauma as the central object of fictional study.

description: This letter focus on the effect of repulsive interactions on the adoption of an external message in an opinion model. With a simple change in the rules, we modify the Deffuant \emph{et al.} model to incorporate the presence of repulsive interactions. We will show that information receptiveness is optimal for an intermediate fraction of repulsive links. Using the master equation as well as Monte Carlo simulations of the message-free model, we identify the point where the system becomes optimally permeable to external influence with an order-disorder transition.

description: Halide perovskite indoor photovoltaics (PV) are a viable solution to autonomously power the billions of sensors in the huge technology field of the Internet of Things. However, there exists a knowledge gap in the hysteresis behaviour of these photovoltaic devices under indoor lighting conditions. The present work is the first experimental study dedicated to exploring the degree of hysteresis in halide perovskite indoor photovoltaic devices by carrying out both transient J–V scan and steady state maximum power point tracking (MPPT) measurements. Dependence of hysteresis on device architecture, selection of electron transporting layers and the composition of the perovskite photoactive layers were investigated. Under indoor illumination, the p-i-n MAPbI3-based devices show consistently high power conversion efficiency (PCE) (stabilized PCE) of greater than 30% and negligible hysteresis behaviour, whereas the n-i-p MAPbI3 devices show poor performance (stabilized PCE ∼ 15%) with pronounced hysteresis effect. Our study also reveals that the n-i-p triple cation perovskite devices are more promising (stabilized PCE ∼ 25%) for indoor PV compared to n-i-p MAPbI3 due to their suppressed ion migration effects. It was observed that the divergence of the PCE values estimated from the J–V scan measurements, and the maximum power point tracking method is higher under indoor illumination compared to 1 Sun, and hence for halide perovskite-based indoor PV, the PCE from the MPPT measurements should be prioritized over the J–V scan measurements. The results from our study suggest the following approaches for maximizing the steady state PCE from halide perovskite indoor PV: (i) select perovskite active layer composition with suppressed ion migration effects (such as Cs-containing triple cation perovskites) and (ii) for the perovskite composition such as MAPbI3, where the ion migration is very active, p-i-n architecture with organic charge transport layers is beneficial over the n-i-p architecture with conventional metal oxides (such as TiO2, SnO2) as charge transport layers.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Developing resilient energy systems’.

description: We show that for general spherically symmetric configurations, contributions of general gravitational and mixed gauge-gravitational Chern-Simons terms to the equations of motion vanish identically in $D>3$ dimensions. This implies that such terms in the action do not affect Birkhoff's theorem or any previously known spherically symmetric solutions. Furthermore, we investigate the thermodynamical properties using the procedure described in an accompanying paper. We find that in $D>3$ static spherically symmetric case Chern-Simons terms do not contribute to the entropy either. Moreover, if one requires only for the metric tensor to be spherically symmetric, letting other fields unrestricted, the results extend almost completely, with only one possible exception --- Chern-Simons Lagrangian terms in which the gravitational part is just the $n=2$ irreducible gravitational Chern-Simons term.
