description: In the fields of quantum metrology and quantum information processing with the system of optically trapped single neutral atoms, the coherence time of qubit encoded in the electronic states is regarded as one of the most important parameters. Longer coherence time is always pursued for higher precision of measurement and quantum manipulation. The coherence time is usually assumed to be merely determined by relative stability of the energy between the electronic states, and the analysis of the decoherence was conducted by treating the atom motion classically. We proposed a complete description of the decoherence of a qubit encoded in two ground electronic states of an optically trapped alkali atom by adopting a full description of the atomic wavefunction. The motional state, i.e., the phonon state, is taken into account. In addition to decoherence due to the variance of differential light shift (DLS), a new decoherence mechanism, phonon-jumping-induced decoherence (PJID), was discovered and verified experimentally. The coherence time of a single-cesium-atom qubit can be extended to $T_2\approx 20$ s by suppressing both the variances of DLS and PJID by trapping the atom in a blue-detuned bottle beam trap (BBT) and preparing the atom in its three-dimensional motional ground states. The coherence time is the longest for a qubit encoded in an optically trapped single alkali atom. Our work provides a deep understanding of the decoherence mechanism for single atom qubits and thus provides a new way to extend the coherence time limit. The method can be applied for other atoms and molecules, opening up new prospects for high-precision control the quantum states of optically trapped atoms or molecules.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: Optimal clustering is a notoriously hard task. Recently, several papers have suggested a new approach to clustering, motivated by examining natural assumptions that arise in practice, or that are made implicitly by many standard algorithmic approaches. These assumptions concern various measures of stability of our given clustering instance. The work of Bilu and Linial [BL10] refers to stability with respect to perturbations in the metric space, and gives positive results for inputs stable to perturbations of size O(n1/3) for max-cut based clustering. The work of Balcan et al [BBG09] refers to stability with respect to approximations of the objective, and gives positive results for inputs such that all (1 + α)-approximations to the k-median (or k-means) optimal solution are close, as partitions of the data, to the actual desired clustering. Related assumptions are considered by Ostrovsky et al. [ORSS06]. In this paper we extend these directions in several importantways. For the Bilu-Linial assumption, we show that for center-based clustering objectives (such as k-median, k-means, and k-center) we can efficiently find the optimal clustering assuming only stability to constant-magnitude perturbations of the underlying metric. For the approximation assumption of Balcan et al., we relax their condition to require good behavior only for “natural” (1 + α)-approximations of the objective: specifically, to make assumptions only about approximations in which each point is assigned to its nearest center. This relaxed assumption now allows for clusters in the optimum solution to be quite close together. Nonetheless, we show that for the k-median objective, for any α > 0, under the assumption that all such approximations yield the same partitioning it is still possible to obtain an optimal solution in polynomial time. In addition, we show extensions of this result to infinite metric spaces for any α ≥ 1.

description: Rowmotion is a simple cyclic action on the distributive lattice of order ideals of a poset: it sends the order ideal x to the order ideal generated by the minimal elements not in x. It can also be computed in "slow motion" as a sequence of local moves. We use the setting of trim lattices to generalize both definitions of rowmotion, proving many structural results along the way. We introduce a flag simplicial complex (similar to the canonical join complex of a semidistributive lattice), and relate our results to recent work of Barnard by proving that extremal semidistributive lattices are trim. As a corollary, we prove that if A is a representation finite algebra and mod A has no cycles, then the torsion classes of A ordered by inclusion form a trim lattice.

‘Brexit is what states make of it’: Brexit, Canada, and the diplomatic ties that bind
Creators: name: Reinhardt, Kate
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2018

description: The 2016 referendum results on the United Kingdom’s membership in the European Union were surprising to many and widely hailed as yet another example of rising protectionist sentiments around the world. As the UK now prepares to exit the EU, states are undertaking diplomatic offensives to approach ‘Brexit’ and frame it according to their own understandings. This paper will explore how a foreign state, external to the main players, is diplomatically navigating Brexit. Using Canada as a case study, I will investigate the tools, techniques, and channels used by authoritative Canadian diplomatic actors as they engage with the UK and the EU on Brexit; I seek to understand how Canada uses diplomacy to construct and produce ideas and identities embedded within a Brexit context. Employing a constructivist conceptual framework throughout, this paper will use discourse analysis to elucidate how Canada is positioning itself in the shifting global climate and to assess the implications of Brexit for modern diplomacy. The first chapter frames Brexit within the UK-EU context and provides a brief literature overview. The second chapter defines the relationship between Canada and the UK, justifying Canada’s selection as the case study focus for this paper. The third chapter assesses the construction of modern diplomacy, considering the significant evolutions of diplomatic practices and tools and subsequently examines Canadian diplomatic efforts on Brexit. The final chapter analyzes how Brexit is constructed through diplomacy and how, in turn, Canada uses Brexit to produce identities and constrain behaviour. I conclude that Canada employs a tightly unified diplomatic narrative that constructs Brexit in three ways: first, to reaffirm the strength and identity of the UK-Canada relationship; second, to promote trade interests and multilateral partnerships; and third, to produce its own identity as a democratic state that rejects protectionist ideals and upholds liberal-democratic values.

description: We prove a new result allowing to construct Anosov flows in dimension 3 by gluing building blocks. By a building block, we mean a compact 3-manifold with boundary $P$, equipped with a $C^1$ vector field $X$, such that the maximal invariant set $\cap_{t \in \mathbb{R}} X^t (P)$ is a saddle hyperbolic set, and the boundary $\partial P$ is quasi-transverse to $X$, i.e. transverse except for a finite number of periodic orbits contained in $\partial P$. Our gluing theorem is a generalization of a recent result of F. Béguin, C. Bonatti, and B. Yu who only considered the case where the block does not contain attractors nor repellers, and the boundary $\partial P$ is transverse to $X$. The quasi-transverse setting is much more natural. Indeed, our result can be seen as a counterpart of a theorem by Barbot and Fenley which roughly states that every 3-dimensional Anosov flow admits a canonical decomposition into building blocks (with quasi-transverse boundary). We will also show a number of applications of our theorem.

description: Question answering (QA) is a highly complex task that brings together classification, clustering, retrieval, and extraction. Question answering systems include various statistical and rule-based components that combine and form multiple strategies for finding answers. However, in real-life scenarios efficiency constraints make it infeasible to simultaneously use all available strategies in a QA system. To address this issue, we present an approach for carefully selecting answering strategies that are likely to benefit individual questions, without significantly reducing performance. We evaluate the impact of strategy selection on question answering performance at several important QA stages: document retrieval, answer extraction, and answer merging. We present strategy selection experiments using a statistical question answering system, and we show significant efficiency improvements. By selecting 10%of the available answering strategies, we obtained similar performance when compared to using all of the strategies combined.

description: Purpose: To use polynomial regression analysis with response surface methodology to examine the extent to which autonomous motivation (AM) and controlled motivation (CM) as separate constructs, as well as how the degree of agreement/differentiation and the direction of differentiation among them, can predict outcomes in academic and health contexts. Methods: Data from two studies with university students and one study with breast cancer survivors were used. Results: In general, AM predicted positive academic and health outcomes, whereas CM positively predicted negative outcomes. Positive outcomes were generally higher whereas negative outcomes were generally lower when AM was greater than CM and when agreement between AM and CM increased. Conclusions: Consideration of the degree of agreement and the direction of differentiation between AM and CM adds to the interpretation of the associations between motivation and outcomes in academic and health contexts that is not captured by simply examining AM or CM separately or using a combined AM–CM score.

description: Abstract: "We present CLL, a concurrent programming language that symmetrically integrates functional and concurrent logic programming. First, a core functional language is obtained from a proof-term assignment to a variant of intuitionistic linear logic, called FOMLL, via the Curry-Howard isomorphism. Next, we introduce a Chemical Abstract Machine (CHAM) whose molecules are typed terms of this functional language. Rewrite rules for this CHAM are derived by augmenting proof-search rules for FOMLL with proof-terms. We show that this CHAM is a powerful concurrent language and that the linear connectives [x in circle], [reversed E], [+ in circle], - ╠èand & correspond to process-calculi connectives for parallel composition, name restriction, internal choice, input prefixing and external choice respectively. We also demonstrate that communication and synchronization between CHAM terms can be performed through proof-search on the types of terms. Finally, we embed this CHAM as a construct in our functional language to allow interleaving functional and concurrent computation in CLL."

description: This article reports on a very recent proposal for a new type of process-independent QCD effective charge [Phys.Rev.D96(2017)054026] defined, as an anologue of the Gell-Mann-Low effective charge in QCD, on the ground of nothing but the knowledge of the gauge-field two-point Green's function, albeit modified within a particular computational framework; namely, the combination of pinch technique and background field method which makes possible a systematic rearranging of classes of diagrams in order to redefine the Green's function and have them obey linear QED-like Slavnov-Taylor identities. We have here calculated that effective charge, shown how strikingly well it compares to a process-dependent effective charge based on the Bjorken sum rule; and, finally, employed it in an exploratory calculation of the proton electromagnetic form factor in the hard scattering regime.

Investigation into the glycosylation mechanism of polyglycerolphosphate lipoteichoic acid in firmicutes
Creators: name: Percy, Matthew G
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) constitutes a major component of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria belonging to the phylum Firmicutes. The chemical structure of LTA varies between different bacteria. Type I LTA, a polyglycerolphosphate polymer often further decorated with D-alanine and glycosyl moieties, is linked to the outside of the membrane via a glycolipid anchor, and is one of the most common and best characterized structures. While the D-alanyl modification is known to protect bacteria against the action of cationic antimicrobial peptides, the function of the glycosyl modification has never been determined, and the genes involved in this process are unknown. In this work, a bioinformatics approach was used to identify candidate genes encoding glycosyltransferases involved in the LTA glycosylation process in Listeria monocytogenes and Bacillus subtilis. Mutant strains with deletions in these genes were constructed and the absence of glycosyl modifications on LTA confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. Using strains lacking glycosyl modification on their LTA, a possible role of this modification in the stress response to NaCl, H2O2, and ethanol was examined. Previous studies on L. monocytogenes suggested that LTA acts as an anchor for cell wall proteins containing GW domains, so named because they possess a glycine - tryptophan dipeptide. In this work, a role of the glycosyl modification on LTA in the retention of the GW domain proteins was explored. However, not only was it found that the glycosyl groups on LTA were dispensable for the binding of GW domain proteins, but also that these proteins were still retained in the cell wall of a L. monocytogenes strain completely lacking LTA. Further experiments using purified GW domain proteins and purified peptidoglycan in binding assays, suggested that GW domain containing proteins are retained in the cell wall by direct binding to the peptidoglycan structure. In summary, this thesis explores possible roles of the glycosyl modification to LTA.

description: The implications of the anarchy principle on CP violation in the lepton sector are investigated. A systematic method is introduced to compute the probability density functions for the CP-violating rephasing invariants of the PMNS matrix from the Haar measure relevant to the anarchy principle. Contrary to the CKM matrix which is hierarchical, it is shown that the Haar measure, and hence the anarchy principle, are very likely to lead to the observed PMNS matrix. Predictions on the CP-violating Dirac rephasing invariant $|j_D|$ and Majorana rephasing invariant $|j_1|$ are also obtained. They correspond to $\langle|j_D|\rangle_\text{Haar}=π/105\approx0.030$ and $\langle|j_1|\rangle_\text{Haar}=1/(6π)\approx0.053$ respectively, in agreement with the experimental hint from T2K of $|j_D^\text{exp}|\approx0.032\pm0.005$ (or $\approx0.033\pm0.003$) for the normal (or inverted) hierarchy.

description: The author comments two cases, Whirlpool and Free World Trust, where the Supreme Court of Canada adopted the purposive construction of patent claims, which suppresses the purely textual interpretation, strengthening however the interpretation regarding the essence and substance of an invention. The author criticizes the Court's solution, indicating that the use of more rigorous rules of construction or the formulation of more detailed principles or methods of construction cannot reduce the legal uncertainty associated with the construction of such claims. Ideally, the solution would have been to determine the author's intent, based on the meaning of the words, the context in which the words were used and the object or purpose of the text under scrutiny. The aim is neither to reject nor to prefer a method, but rather to use all appropriate methods to interpret a text in a just and reasonable manner, given the particular circumstances of a case.

description: This paper discusses in detail our approaches for producing the submitted summaries to TRECVID, including the two baseline methods. The cluster method performed well in terms of coverage, and adequately in terms of user satisfaction, but did take longer to review. We conducted additional evaluations using the same TRECVID assessment interface to judge 2 additional methods for summary generation: 25x (simple speed-up by 25 times), and pz (emphasizing pans and zooms). Human assessors show significant differences between the cluster, pz, and 25x approaches. The best coverage (text inclusion performance) is obtained by 25x, but at the expense of taking the most time to evaluate and perceived as the most redundant. Method pz was easier to use than cluster and had better performance on pan/zoom recall tasks, leading into discussions on how summaries can be improved with more knowledge of the anticipated users and tasks.

description: As food systems have become industrialized, information about food production has been obscured, causing threats to food security. Local food systems provide an alternative, and consumers and producers are increasingly using them. However, local food systems present their own challenges. Employing participatory research methods, including contextual conversations with producers and diary studies with consumers, this thesis explores the design of the Community Foods service which allows consumers to more easily connect and communicate with producers. As part of the service, I propose a greater involvement of locally-owned stores in food systems as they increase access to local foods without increasing the time required from producers. The main aspect of the Community Foods service is a digital platform that allows consumers to explore and search the local food opportunities across stores, markets, and individual producers within a community. Through these methods, the Community Foods service provides greater access to local foods, proposing new connections within a community and ultimately new ways of moving through it based on food.

description: We report the discovery of gamma-ray detection from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) B0443-6657 using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the \textit{Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope}. LMC B0443-6657 is a flat spectrum radio source, possibly associated with a supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC N4). Employing the LAT data of 8 years, our results show a significant excess ($>9.4σ$) of gamma-ray in the range of 0.2--100\,GeV above the gamma-ray background. A power-law function is found to be adequate to describe the $0.2-100$ GeV $γ$-ray spectrum, which yields a photon flux of $3.27\pm0.53\ \mathrm{photon\ \,cm}^2\ \mathrm{s}^{-1}$ with a photon index of $2.35\pm0.11$, corresponding to an isotropic gamma-ray luminosity of $5.3\times10^{40}\ \mathrm{erg\ \,s}^{-1}$. The hadronic model predicts a low X-ray and TeV flux while the leptonic model predicts an observable flux in these two energy bands. The follow-up observations of the LMC B0443-6657 in X-ray or TeV band would distinguish the radiation models of gamma-rays from this region.

description: Programmable matter refers to a technology that will allow one to control and manipulate three-dimensional physical artifacts (similar to how we already control and manipulate two-dimensional images with computer graphics). In other words, programmable matter will allow us to take a (big) step beyond virtual reality, to synthetic reality, an environment in which all the objects in a user’s environment (including the ones inserted by the computer) are physically realized. Note that the idea is not to transport objects nor is it to recreate an objects chemical composition, but rather to create a physical artifact that will mimic the shape, movement, visual appearance, sound, and tactile qualities of the original object

description: In this work, the term ``quantum chaos'' refers to spectral correlations similar to those found in the random matrix theory. Quantum chaos can be diagnosed through the analysis of level statistics using e.g.~the spectral form factor, which detects both short- and long-range level correlations. The spectral form factor corresponds to the Fourier transform of the two-point spectral correlation function and exhibits a typical slope-dip-ramp-plateau structure (aka correlation hole) when the system is chaotic. We discuss how this structure could be detected through the quench dynamics of two physical quantities accessible to experimental many-body quantum systems: the survival probability and the spin autocorrelation function. The survival probability is equivalent to the spectral form factor with an additional filter. When the system is small, the dip of the correlation hole reaches sufficiently large values at times which are short enough to be detected with current experimental platforms. As the system is pushed away from chaos, the correlation hole disappears, signaling integrability or localization. We also provide a relatively shallow circuit with which the correlation hole could be detected with commercially available quantum computers.

Gender Wage Gap in Canada: An Analysis using Counterfactual Distributions Regression
Creators: name: Lu, Hui
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2019

description: In this paper, I estimate and decompose the gender wage gap in Canada using a counterfactual distribution approach based on distribution regression methods developed by Chernozhukov et al (2013). Using the Canadian Labour Force survey of October and April 2018, I show that men earn higher wages than women throughout the distribution. The difference in log hourly wage increases when moving up the distribution and drops at the end of the distribution, which the discrimination is higher between 20th and 70th quantiles. In the decomposition, the structural effect constitutes the majority of the gap while the composition effect reduces the gap. When controlled for industry and occupation, the gap is completely due to discrimination. This contrasts with the positive sign of the explained portion in the canonical Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition. Overall, the result of this paper provides new empirical evidence to support discrimination is the cause of gender wage gap.

description: In designing external validation studies of clinical prediction models, contemporary sample size calculation methods are based on the frequentist inferential paradigm. One of the widely reported metrics of model performance is net benefit (NB), and the relevance of conventional inference around NB as a measure of clinical utility is doubtful. Value of Information methodology quantifies the consequences of uncertainty in terms of its impact on clinical utility of decisions. We introduce the expected value of sample information (EVSI) for validation as the expected gain in NB from conducting an external validation study of a given size. We propose algorithms for EVSI computation, and in a case study demonstrate how EVSI changes as a function of the amount of current information and future study's sample size. Value of Information methodology provides a decision-theoretic lens to the process of planning a validation study of a risk prediction model and can complement conventional methods when designing such studies.

description: Claytronics is a form a programmable matter that takes the concept of modular robots to a new extreme. The concept of modular robots has been around for some time. (See [14] for a survey.) Previous approaches to modular robotics sought to create an ensemble of tens or even hundreds of small autonomous robots which could, through coordination, achieve a global effect not possible by any single unit. In general the goal of these projects was to adapt to the environment to facilitate, for example, improved locomotion. Our work on claytronics departs from previous work in several important ways. One of the primary goals of claytronics is to form the basis for a new media type, pario. Pario, a logical extension of audio and video, is a media type used to reproduce moving 3D objects in the real world. A direct result of our goal is that claytronics must scale to millions of micron-scale units. Having scaling (both in number and size) as a primary design goal impacts the work significantly.

description: Taking advantage of the high acceptance and axial symmetry of the WASA-at-COSY detector, and the high degree of the polarized proton beam of COSY, the reaction pp{\to} ppη has been measured close to threshold to explore the analyzing power Ay. The angular distribution of Ay is determined with the precision improved by more than one order of magnitude with respect to previous results allowing a first accurate comparison with theoretical predictions. The determined analyzing power is consistent with zero for an excess energy of Q = 15 MeV signaling s wave production with no evidence for higher partial waves. At Q = 72 MeV the data reveals strong interference of P s and P p partial waves and cancellation of (P p) and Ss*Sd contributions. These results rule out the presently available theoretical predictions for the production mechanism of the η meson.
