description: Being chosen as a differential operator of a special form, metric $η$ operator becomes unitary equivalent to a one-dimensional Hermitian Hamiltonian with a natural supersymmetric structure. We show that fixing the superpartner of this Hamiltonian permits to determine both the metric operator and corresponding non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. Moreover, under an additional restriction on the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, it becomes a superpartner of another Hermitian Hamiltonian.

Algorithms for Ordinal Learning of Line Metric Spaces
Creators: name: Sgherzi, Francesco
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Algorithms relying on Ordinal Informations to retrieve embedding have seen rise in usage in recent times due to the increase of popularity of automated analyses involving human generated opinions. In addition to this applications have been proven to also be successful in the field of ranking where the use of pairwise comparisons improves both efficiency and accuracy in noisy settings. In this document, we will first explore an algorithm for solving the LLOC problem in one dimension by proving its time complexity and, more importantly, the accuracy guarantees under the assumption that all the constraints between points are present in the constraint set. We will then proceed to conjecture a variation of such algorithm capable to learn multidimensional embeddings under the assumption that the base algorithm can handle instances where the the number of constraints is not cubic. Lastly we will assess the capabilities of such algorithm in both Ordinal Embedding and Metric Learning scenarios.

title:  Chewing Speed Does Not Follow Typical Patterns of Motor Slowing with Age
Creators: name: Samulski, Brittany

Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Aging adults experience gradual structural changes in nerve and muscle tissues that impair their ability to exploit speed as an effective movement strategy. The aim of the study was to examine whether chewing rates demonstrate a level of age-related neuromotor decline similar to other motor tasks. Fifteen young (20-40 years) and fifteen healthy older adults (60+ years) completed a battery of motor tasks including: walking, finger tapping, simple reaction time, postural sway, and chewing. Gait metrics were collected using a 20-foot pressure-sensitive walkway. All walking was performed at a preferred speed. Participants tapped an accelerometer affixed to a table at a preferred rate. Upper extremity reaction time was recorded by depressing a mouse button with an associated timing mechanism, whereas a similar foot pedal interface was used to measure lower extremity reaction time. Postural sway data was collected using a force plate. Surface electromyography of the masseter was used to record fast(2Hz), slow(1Hz), and preferred chewing rates. Fast and slow chewing rates were set using an auditory metronome which was switched off during recording. Age comparisons for each task were performed using general linear modeling, with additional considerations for chewing speed effects and interactions for the chewing task. The results reveal that older adults demonstrate a general slowing of movement with the exception of chewing speed which appears to be preserved with aging. Regardless of age, preferred chewing rates were nearly identical. Preservation of chewing rates compared to other motor tasks may be due to the difference in anatomical innervation between muscles of mastication and the limbs. Masticatory muscles receive bilateral innervation including ipsilateral and contralateral inputs from the motor cortices, whereas limb muscles receive mainly unilateral innervation from the contralateral cortex. The neural redundancy may preserve chewing rates despite age-related degradation of the system.

description: We have built a compact light source for bright squeezed twin-beams at 795\,nm based on four-wave-mixing in atomic $^{85}$Rb vapor. With a total optical power of 400\,mW derived from a free running diode laser and a tapered amplifier to pump the four-wave-mixing process, we achieve 2.1\,dB intensity difference squeezing of the twin beams below the standard quantum limit, without accounting for losses. Squeezed twin beams generated by the type of source presented here could be used as reference for the precise calibration of photodetectors. Transferring the quantum correlations from the light to atoms in order to generate correlated atom beams is another interesting prospect. In this work we investigate the dispersion that is generated by the employed four-wave-mixing process with respect to bandwidth and dependence on probe detuning. We are currently using this squeezed light source to test the transfer of spatial information and quantum correlations through media of anomalous dispersion.

High-resolution remote sensing and modelling of NO2 air pollution over the city of Zurich
Creators: name: Kuhlmann, Gerrit

name: Brunner, Dominik
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: Nitrogen oxides (NOx = NO + NO2) are important air pollutants and play a key role in the formation of ozone and particulate matter. In urban areas, NO2 concentrations have high spatial and temporal variability because of their localized emissions (e.g. road traffic) and short lifetime. Mapping NO2 concentrations at high resolution is therefore essential for assessing their impact on health and for designing efficient mitigation policies. In this study, we compared remotely-sensed NO2 maps (50 × 50 m²) retrieved from the APEX imaging spectrometer with 3D NO2 fields simulated with the urban-scale atmospheric dispersion GRAMM/GRAL modelling system. NO2 column densities were retrieved with an improved version of the Empa APEX NO2 retrieval algorithm from APEX measurements conducted over Zurich on August 30th 2013 around noon. GRAMM/GRAL was set up for a domain covering the APEX measurements with a spatial resolution of 10 × 10 m2. APEX NO2 columns and GRAMM/GRAL NO2 fields were additionally validated with near-surface measurements from the NABEL and OSTLUFT air pollution monitoring networks. GRAMM/GRAL agreed well with the near-surface measurements. The broad spatial distribution of APEX and GRAMM/GRAL NO2 columns agreed well, while at finer scales significant differences were seen suggesting that additional model modifications are required to simulate the 3D NO2 field well, for example by accounting for actual traffic intensities during the time of overpass, but also that a better understanding of the radiative transfer is needed. In conclusion, the combination of airborne imaging spectrometers and urban-scale dispersion models is a promising approach for better understanding the spatial distribution of air pollutants in cities.

Novel Non-Blocking Approach for a Concurrent Heap
Creators: name: Niyolia, Rashmi
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2016

description: We present a non-blocking algorithm for a concurrent heap in asynchronous shared memory multiprocessors. Processors in these machines often execute instructions at varying speeds and are subject to arbitrarily long delays. Our implementation supports Non-blocking Insert, Delete, and Find-Min operations on a heap. Non-blocking techniques avoid the drawbacks associated with mutual exclusion and also admit improved parallelism. Insert and DeleteMin operations in heap take more than one atomic instruction to complete, thus, it is possible that a new operation may be started before the previous one completes, leaving heap inconsistent between operations. We have represented heap as an array of pointers. Any modification to the heap is done by using single-word Compare&Swap instructions. If all update operations modify different parts of the heap, they run completely concurrently. Our approach guarantees lock-freedom for all concurrent threads and wait-freedom if threads execute operations on different nodes of the heap.
Laser Cooling of Dense Rubidium-Noble Gas Mixtures via Collisional Redistribution of Radiation

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Atomic Physics (physics.atom-ph)

description: We describe experiments on the laser cooling of both helium-rubidium and argon-rubidium gas mixtures by collisional redistribution of radiation. Frequent alkali-noble gas collisions in the ultradense gas, with typically 200\,bar of noble buffer gas pressure, shift a highly red detuned optical beam into resonance with a rubidium D-line transition, while spontaneous decay occurs close to the unshifted atomic resonance frequency. The technique allows for the laser cooling of macroscopic ensembles of gas atoms. The use of helium as a buffer gas leads to smaller temperature changes within the gas volume due to the high thermal conductivity of this buffer gas, as compared to the heavier argon noble gas, while the heat transfer within the cell is improved.

Optimization of Prosthetic Hands: Utilizing Modularity to Improve Grip Force, Grasp, and Versatility
Creators: name: Harris, Jordan William
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: It has been demonstrated that although many varieties of upper limb prosthetics exist, commercially available prosthetics are outdated and unsatisfactory. Ineffectiveness and limitations have led to some prosthesis wearers having to own multiple devices, whereas others have given up on them entirely. Even though ample research has been conducted to design and test new hand designs, the industry appears to rest in an overall stagnated state.
         It was proposed here, that one problem with prosthetic research is an excess of variables involved in testing, and therefore the improper application of the scientific method. It seems that each time a research team desires to test a new idea, a completely new hand and system is designed to house it. A costly and time-consuming cycle is then initiated which may lead to comparing the merits of one hand to the performance of distinct hand designs with multiple differences. Since these comparisons involve multiple variables, the results are often inconclusive and many projects end up shelved.
         To help advance prosthetic improvement, it seems necessary to unclog the process by lowering costs, speeding up development, and implementing an improved basis for comparison. The proposed method for achieving the first two objectives is to make use of a 3D printed hand platform. Such prosthetics are durable, inexpensive, and quick to manufacture and assemble. This allows for rapid transition from idea to prototype, and from observation to improvement. The method for improving comparison is the addition of modularity into the prosthetic. If a single hand could be reconfigured to implement different attributes and ideas, the merit of each innovation could be independently demonstrated and verified.
         In this research, a 3D printed hand was chosen which could accommodate configurations capable of adding adaptation as well as a resting state of partial curvature to the basic hand. The various configurations, including neither, each, and both changes were then tested in a series of experiments. These were arranged to discover the maximum weight that could be sustained while the hand attempted to maintain grasp on various bar shapes. These tests were run in two different test setups: attached to a non-amputee's arm and suspended by clamps, in order to determine the influence introduced by the limitations of human strength and physiology. These rounds of testing successfully demonstrated that small modifications to the prosthetic could yield improvements in performance (even with a basic, low-cost hand), and that the merit of various ideas can be independently demonstrated on a singular platform.

This result - which shows that the Excluded Middle principle can be used to eliminate Skolem functions - has been previously proved by other techniques, among them the epsilon substitution method and forcing. In our proof, we employ Interactive Realizability, a computational semantics for Peano Arithmetic which extends Kreisel's modified realizability to the classical case.

Takes Dying Animals

description: The following collection represents three years of creative work in the Masters of Fine Arts-Fiction program at the University of Nevada Las Vegas. The majority of these stories operate in the realm of the surreal with comic and farcical leanings. All of the characters portrayed deal with death in some way--whether it a parent, a marriage, an animal, or a friend--and each cope their loss by pushing grief to the periphery, often masking it with humor or denial, until the story requires them to consciously confront it. These stories should not be considered finished work, but as a summation of the stylistic and craft choices I have developed and nurtured throughout my workshops, thesis hours,
and personal writing work. I hope these stories entertain--which is the original instinct that drew me to fiction--but more importantly, like all great literature, speak to the human condition in a meaningful and memorable way. I believe most of these stories are still drafts away from completion, but proudly present them here, confident they are well on their way to becoming the best versions of themselves.

Work and Home-Life Balance: A Comparative Study of Hotel Employee Satisfaction in the West and Midwest
Creators: name: Connick, Amanda
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: This study was conducted in the Western and Midwestern United States at mid-scale hotels with no food and beverage services regarding hotel employee satisfaction of work and home-life balance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing employee perceptions of work and home-life balance, and to determine whether the regional locations of the work influence those perceptions.
The data was collected using an online survey from several hotels in the Western U.S. and Midwestern U.S. A total of 120 surveys were completed, 78 were usable. There were 45 respondents from the Midwest and 33 respondents from the West. The data shows that there is no significant difference between regions in regards to satisfaction of work and home-life balance.
There were factors that showed similarities between regions and work and home-life satisfaction. These factors include: time management skills, missing home responsibilities because of work, a supportive work environment, and commute. Both regions viewed these factors similarly and each factor was cross examined with work and home-life balance to establish a correspondence.
The overall findings of the study will help both hotel employers and hotel employees find a balance between work and home-life satisfaction.

description: We have obtained high contrast images of four nearby, faint, and very low mass objects 2MASSJ04351455-1414468, SDSSJ044337.61+000205.1, 2MASSJ06085283-2753583 and 2MASSJ06524851-5741376 (here after 2MASS0435-14, SDSS0443+00, 2MASS0608-27 and 2MASS0652-57), identified in the field as probable isolated young brown dwarfs. Our goal was to search for binary companions down to the planetary mass regime. We used the NAOS-CONICA adaptive optics instrument (NACO) and its unique capability to sense the wavefront in the near-infrared to acquire sharp images of the four systems in Ks, with a field of view of 28"*28". Additional J and L' imaging and follow-up observations at a second epoch were obtained for 2MASS0652-57. With a typical contrast DKs= 4.0-7.0 mag, our observations are sensitive down to the planetary mass regime considering a minimum age of 10 to 120 Myr for these systems. No additional point sources are detected in the environment of 2MASS0435-14, SDSS0443+00 and 2MASS0608-27 between 0.1-12" (i.e about 2 to 250 AU at 20 pc). 2MASS0652-57 is resolved as a \sim230 mas binary. Follow-up observations reject a background contaminate, resolve the orbital motion of the pair, and confirm with high confidence that the system is physically bound. The J, Ks and L' photometry suggest a q\sim0.7-0.8 mass ratio binary with a probable semi-major axis of 5-6 AU. Among the four systems, 2MASS0652-57 is probably the less constrained in terms of age determination. Further analysis would be necessary to confirm its youth. It would then be interesting to determine its orbital and physical properties to derive the system's dynamical mass and to test evolutionary model predictions.

Hermitian Hamiltonian equivalent to a given non-Hermitian one. Manifestation of spectral singularity

description: One of the simplest non-Hermitian Hamiltonians first proposed by Schwartz (1960 {\it Commun. Pure Appl. Math.} \tb{13} 609) which may possess a spectral singularity is analyzed from the point of view of non-Hermitian generalization of quantum mechanics. It is shown that $η$ operator, being a second order differential operator, has supersymmetric structure. Asymptotic behavior of eigenfunctions of a Hermitian Hamiltonian equivalent to the given non-Hermitian one is found. As a result the corresponding scattering matrix and cross section are given explicitly. It is demonstrated that the possible presence of the spectral singularity in the spectrum of the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian may be detected as a resonance in the scattering cross section of its Hermitian counterpart. Nevertheless, just at the singular point the equivalent Hermitian Hamiltonian becomes undetermined.

DISTRIBUTION: Sierra Leone to Ivory Coast; possibly Nigeria. COMMENTS: Described with some doubt as a subspecies of bottegi, but its almost sympatric distribution, a longer skull (Hutterer and Happold, 1983), and a different karyotype (Maddalena, pers. comm.) clearly distinguish it.

A call-by-value lambda-calculus with lists and control

description: Calculi with control operators have been studied to reason about control in programming languages and to interpret the computational content of classical proofs. To make these calculi into a real programming language, one should also include data types. As a step into that direction, this paper defines a simply typed call-by-value lambda calculus with the control operators catch and throw, a data type of lists, and an operator for primitive recursion (a la Goedel's T). We prove that our system satisfies subject reduction, progress, confluence for untyped terms, and strong normalization for well-typed terms.

description: 17.01.2022. godine sam poslao svoj Esej: "SANU: BRAĆA, SESTRE, ZETOVI – SINOVI I UNUCI SAMO ŠTO NISU", sa 7 (sedam) priloga, u vidu cirkularne elektronske poruke na više stotina adresa istraživača prirodnih nauka u Beogradu i svim akademicima SANU. Na njega je, službenim aktom - PISMOM - sa pečatom i zavodnim brojem 80/1 od 19.01.2022. godine, munjevito reagovao predsednik SANU (videti link: https://zenodo.org/record/5894825 - "Bućkalo za predsednika SANU Vladimira S. Kostića"). Predsednikovo PISMO je, pored grubih neistina, sadržalo teže uvrede, neprilične kvalifikacije, čak pretnje sudom mojoj malenkosti i implicitni poziv akademicima na obračun 'sa mnom i meni sličnim'. Predsednik je od mene 4.02.2022. godine dobio detaljan odgovor na svoje pismo (poslato samo akademicima). Ja sam svoj polemički odgovor, koji sada nudim čitaocima: "KAKO MUSA DERE JARCA" (sa dva priloga) poslao, kao i prvi put, na više stotina relevantnih elektronskih adresa. Posle više od godinu dana odlučih da ovu zaključnu polemičku poruku, koja je tada objavljena na blogu "IZMEĐU JAVE I SNA", postavim na ZENODO. Razlog za ovu odluku su sudski postupci koji su potom usledili i jedna, na falsifikatima zasnovana, prvostepena presuda koja je nedavno stigla. Ovo je nametnulo potrebu da široj publici ponudim podatke o tome kako i zašto akademici SANU, i čak njihov Matematički institut SANU (MISANU), umesto naučnim argumentima svoj, mojim pismenima uzdrmani, ugled pokušavaju da povrate na sudu uz nenormalne materijalne zahteve za "duševnu bol". Protiv moje esejističko-recenzentske delatnosti vezane za poslednji izborni ciklus u SANU 2021 su do sada podnete tri parnične tužbe (dvojica akademika i njihov MISANU traže ukupno pet i po miliona dinara od čoveka u penziji), a jedan od njih čak pokušava da protiv mene i mog Eseja pokrene krivični postupak (ni manje ni više nego zbog: Povrede ugleda zbog rasne, verske ili druge pripadnosti - Đe me nađe kukala mu majka?).

On using angular cross-correlations to determine source redshift distributions

description: We investigate how well the redshift distribution of a population of extragalactic objects can be reconstructed using angular cross-correlations with a sample whose redshifts are known. We derive the minimum variance quadratic estimator, which has simple analytic representations in very applicable limits and is significantly more sensitive than earlier proposed estimation procedures. This estimator is straightforward to apply to observations, it robustly finds the likelihood maximum, and it conveniently selects angular scales at which fluctuations are well approximated as independent between redshift bins and at which linear theory applies. We find that the linear bias times number of objects in a redshift bin generally can be constrained with cross-correlations to fractional error (10^2 n/N)^1/2, where N is the total number of spectra per dz and n is the number of redshift bins spanned by the bulk of the unknown population. The error is often independent of the sky area and sampling fraction. Furthermore, we find that sub-percent measurements of the angular source density per unit redshift, dN/dz, are in principle possible, although cosmic magnification needs to be accounted for at fractional errors of

description: We study the physics of two-dimensional N=(2,2) gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) via the two-sphere partition function. We show that the classical phase boundaries separating distinct GLSM phases, which are described by the secondary fan construction for abelian GLSMs, are completely encoded in the analytic structure of the partition function. The partition function of a non-abelian GLSM can be obtained as a limit from an abelian theory; we utilize this fact to show that the phases of non-abelian GLSMs can be obtained from the secondary fan of the associated abelian GLSM. We prove that the partition function of any abelian GLSM satisfies a set of linear differential equations; these reduce to the familiar A-hypergeometric system of Gel'fand, Kapranov, and Zelevinski for GLSMs describing complete intersections in toric varieties. We develop a set of conditions that are necessary for a GLSM phase to admit an interpretation as the low-energy limit of a non-linear sigma model with a Calabi-Yau threefold target space. Through the application of these criteria we discover a class of GLSMs with novel geometric phases corresponding to Calabi-Yau manifolds that are branched double-covers of Fano threefolds. These criteria provide a promising approach for constructing new Calabi-Yau geometries.
