description: We consider a system with randomly layered ferromagnetic bonds (McCoy-Wu model) and study its critical properties in the frame of mean-field theory. In the low-temperature phase there is an average spontaneous magnetization in the system, which vanishes as a power law at the critical point with the critical exponents $β\approx 3.6$ and $β_1 \approx 4.1$ in the bulk and at the surface of the system, respectively. The singularity of the specific heat is characterized by an exponent $α\approx -3.1$. The samples reduced critical temperature $t_c=T_c^{av}-T_c$ has a power law distribution $P(t_c) \sim t_c^ω$ and we show that the difference between the values of the critical exponents in the pure and in the random system is just $ω\approx 3.1$. Above the critical temperature the thermodynamic quantities behave analytically, thus the system does not exhibit Griffiths singularities.

The Weak Null Condition in Free-evolution Schemes for Numerical Relativity: Dual Foliation GHG with Constraint Damping
Creators: name: Gasperin, Edgar

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: All strategies for the treatment of future null-infinity in numerical relativity involve some form of regularization of the field equations. In a recent proposal that relies on the dual foliation formalism this is achieved by the use of an asymptotically Minkowskian generalized harmonic tensor basis. For the scheme to work however, derivatives of certain coordinate light-speeds must decay fast enough. Presently, we generalize the method of asymptotic expansions for nonlinear wave equations to treat first order symmetric hyperbolic systems. We then use this heuristic tool to extract the expected rates of decay of the metric near null-infinity in a free-evolution setting. We show, within the asymptotic expansion, that by carefully modifying the non-principal part of the field equations by the addition of constraints, we are able to obtain optimal decay rates even when the constraints are violated. The light-speed condition can hence be satisfied, which paves the way for the explicit numerical treatment of future null-infinity. We then study the behavior of the Trautman-Bondi mass under the decay results predicted by the asymptotic expansion. Naively the mass seems to be unbounded, but we see first that the divergent terms can be replaced with a combination of the constraints and the Einstein field equations, and second that the Bondi mass loss formula is recovered within the framework. Both of the latter results hold in the presence of small constraint violations.

description: Within the 1/N expansion of O(N) nonlinear $σ$ models for $d \leq 4$ it is possible to separate consistently the spin-wave and the massive-mode contributions to the scaling part of the free energy near criticality, and to evaluate them to $O(1/N)$. For critical dimensions $d = 2+2/n$ the Abe-Hikami anomaly is recovered, while for $d=2$ the removal of the spin-wave term is justified.

description: Hundreds of millions of network cameras have been installed throughout the world. Each is capable of providing a vast amount of real-time data. Analyzing the massive data generated by these cameras requires significant computational resources and the demands may vary over time. Cloud computing shows the most promise to provide the needed resources on demand. In this article, we investigate how to allocate cloud resources when analyzing real-time data streams from network cameras. A resource manager considers many factors that affect its decisions, including the types of analysis, the number of data streams, and the locations of the cameras. The manager then selects the most cost-efficient types of cloud instances (e.g. CPU vs. GPGPU) to meet the computational demands for analyzing streams. We evaluate the effectiveness of our approach using Amazon Web Services. Experiments demonstrate more than 50% cost reduction for real workloads.

description: This document formalizes the concept of the 'informational bubble' as a logical foundation for the existence of any structured system. The theorem starts from the assumption that reality is a mutable logical structure, and that every distinction within it automatically generates an observable system — a bubble. When the entire structure reaches absolute coherence, all distinctions vanish, and with them the very concept of a container.

description: Introduction. L’entérocolite ulcéronécrosante (ECUN) est une cause majeure de morbimortalité en néonatologie. Un cas groupé de neuf cas est survenu dans un service de néonatologie sur une période de trois mois. Les objectifs de cet article sont de décrire cet épisode, les mesures de contrôle instaurées, et d’émettre et vérifier des hypothèses sur l’origine de ce cas groupé. Matériel et méthodes. Audit de l’organisation et des pratiques de préparation de l’alimentation entérale puis inspection de l’Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé, recherches bactériologiques et virologiques, prélèvements d’environnement, des laits et des suppléments. Réalisation d’une enquête étiologique de cohorte rétrospective afin de préciser les facteurs de risque. Résultats. Une cellule de crise a été constituée et des réunions de suivi ont été organisées. Les mesures de gestion immédiates comprenaient la suspension provisoire de l’alimentation par le lait maternel frais et de la supplémentation, le renforcement des précautions contact, le cohorting. Aucun facteur infectieux commun n’a été identifié. L’âge gestationnel et le poids de naissance bas étaient les principaux facteurs de risque retrouvés par l‘enquête de cohorte, sans autre facteur permettant d’expliquer l’épisode. Discussion. Cet épisode a constitué une crise importante pour le service et l’établissement. La mise en place des mesures de contrôle a été suivie d’un retour à la situation antérieure. La physiopathologie des ECUN est multifactorielle et les cas groupés restent fréquemment sans cause identifiée. Les grands prématurés, particulièrement fragiles, exigent une haute qualité de prise en charge pluridisciplinaire.

Emprego, produtividade e salários: uma perspetiva setorial
Creators: name: Cantante, Frederico
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Resumo:

Este estudo analisa de forma articulada a evolução do emprego, da produtividade e dos salários em Portugal a partir de uma perspetiva setorial e comparada. Demonstra-se que a crescente terceirização do emprego tem sido impulsionada por alguns setores que se caracterizam por apresentar baixos níveis de produtividade e salários inferiores à média nacional. Analisa-se também a evolução da produtividade para o conjunto da economia e a nível setorial. Se para o período 2004-2022 o crescimento real da produtividade é quase marginal (3,6%), entre 2013-2022 verifica-se um aumento de quase 19%. Esse aumento ocorre em setores com perfis salariais e de produtividade diferenciados. Entre 2013 e 2022, a produtividade média real evoluiu quase sempre acima do salário médio real, sendo esse hiato particularmente evidente no setor do Alojamento, restauração e similares (I), das Atividades imobiliárias (L), da Agricultura, produção animal, caça, floresta e pesca (A) e do Comércio por grosso e a retalho; reparação de veículos automóveis e motociclos (G

Abstract:

This study analyzes the evolution of employment, productivity and wages in Portugal from a sectoral and comparative perspective. It shows that the growing employment in the services sector has been driven by certain economic activities which are characterized by low levels of productivity and wages below the national average. The evolution of productivity for the economy as a whole and at sectoral level is also analyzed. While for the period 2004-2022 productivity growth at constant prices was almost marginal (3.6%), between 2013-2022 there was an increase of almost 19%. This increase occurs in sectors with different wage and productivity profiles. Between 2013 and 2022, real average productivity evolved above real average wages, with this gap being particularly evident in the Accommodation, food service and similar (I), Real estate (L), Agriculture, hunting, forestry and fishing (A) and Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles (G) sectors.

description: Entity resolution seeks to merge databases as to remove duplicate entries where unique identifiers are typically unknown. We review modern blocking approaches for entity resolution, focusing on those based upon locality sensitive hashing (LSH). First, we introduce $k$-means locality sensitive hashing (KLSH), which is based upon the information retrieval literature and clusters similar records into blocks using a vector-space representation and projections. Second, we introduce a subquadratic variant of LSH to the literature, known as Densified One Permutation Hashing (DOPH). Third, we propose a weighted variant of DOPH. We illustrate each method on an application to a subset of the ongoing Syrian conflict, giving a discussion of each method.

description: We analyse high spatial resolution near infra-red (NIR) imaging of NGC6384, a Milky Way like galaxy, using ARGOS commissioning data at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). ARGOS provides a stable PSF$_{\rm FWHM}\!=\!0.2"\!-\!0.3"$ AO correction of the ground layer across the LUCI2 NIR camera $4'\!\times4'$ field by using six laser guide stars (three per telescope) and a natural guide star for tip-tilt sensing and guiding. Enabled by this high spatial resolution we analyse the structure of the nuclear star cluster (NSC) and the central kiloparsec of NGC6384. We find via 2D modelling that the NSC ($r_{\rm eff}\!\simeq\!10$pc) is surrounded by a small ($r_{\rm eff}\!\simeq\!100$pc) and a larger Sersić ($r_{\rm eff}\!\simeq\!400$pc), all embedded within the NGC\,6384 large-scale boxy/X-shaped bulge and disk. This proof-of-concept study shows that with the high spatial resolution achieved by ground-layer AO we can push such analysis to distances previously only accessible from space. SED-fitting to the NIR and optical HST photometry allowed to leverage the age-metallicity-extinction degeneracies and derive the effective NSC properties of an young to old population mass ratio of $8\%$ with ${\cal M}_{\rm\star,old}\!\simeq\!3.5\times10^7M_\odot$, Age$_{\rm old,\ young}\!=\!10.9\pm1.3$Gyr and 226\,Myr $\pm62\%$, metallicity [M/H]$=\!-0.11\pm0.16$ and $0.33\pm39\%$dex, and $E(B\!-\!V)\!=\!0.63$ and 1.44mag.

description: Bose-Einstein condensates of dilute atomic gases, characterized by a macroscopic population of the quantum mechanical ground state, are a new, weakly interacting quantum fluid. In most experiments condensates in a single weak field seeking state are magnetically trapped. These condensates can be described by a scalar order parameter similar to the spinless superfluid 4He. Even though alkali atoms have angular momentum, the spin orientation is not a degree of freedom because spin flips lead to untrapped states and are therefore a loss process. In contrast, the recently realized optical trap for sodium condensates confines atoms independently of their spin orientation. This opens the possibility to study spinor condensates which represent a system with a vector order parameter instead of a scalar. Here we report a study of the equilibrium state of spinor condensates in an optical trap. The freedom of spin orientation leads to the formation of spin domains in an external magnetic field. The structure of these domains are illustrated in spin domain diagrams. Combinations of both miscible and immiscible spin components were realized.

description: In this study, quality costs are considered as an indicator of quality and value engineering level and the relationship between quality costs and value engineering is analysed in the case of stainless steel cold rolling process. The standard chemical limits of metal alloys are analysed, and the effect of in-boundary variables on both production and quality costs are discussed. Similar analyses were carried out for standard process boundary conditions.

It has been shown that the cold rolling process, which has the lowest value in the value stream of the production of stainless steel sheet products, is not as thought and value has been created by changing many properties of the material according to the usage area. By using processes such as raw material selection and heat treatment optimisation, two new alloys (304E and 304U) could be produced without changing the chemical structure, and production cost could be reduced with quality improvement studies parallel to value engineering. Prevention costs, an important indicator, have also been reduced.

In the study, the causes of quality cost sources are shown separately on the process and their relations with each other are analysed. Although the indicators were analysed on the stainless steel cold rolling process, they were determined to be applicable and adaptable for all continuous material productions.

Stochastic Differential Equations In Epidemiology

Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis is devoted to investigating nonlinear dynamical systems that model infectious diseases. Our primary interest lies in the analysis of stochastic epidemic modelling, particularly on the part that focuses on compartmental stochastic models.
These models, with or without time delays, treat the influence of three specific kinds of environmental noise. They are Gaussian white noise, Lévy noise, and telegraph noise. Our aim is to explore the influence these noise process types have on disease dynamics, enhancing our understanding of epidemic modelling.
We begin by exploring a deterministic SAIRS epidemic model and identifying two equilibrium states: disease-free and endemic.We derive the basic reproduction number and analyse the global stability of these equilibria. Further, we examine the SAIR model, a special case of the SAIRS model, and establish the global stability of its endemic equilibria using the Lyapunov function method.
Next, we analyse a generalised stochastic SEIQR epidemic model perturbed by Gaussian white noise. We explore V -geometric ergodicity of the model. Furthermore, we establish that under certain conditions, the disease either becomes extinct or is stochastically permanent.
Moreover, we extend the deterministic SAIRS model discussed earlier into a stochastic model influenced by both Gaussian and Lévy noise. We identify the necessary conditions for the disease’s extinction and for its persistence in mean.
Furthermore, we examine a distributed delayed epidemic model incorporating Lévy noise. By employing stochastic Lyapunov functions, we are able to ascertain the conditions under which the disease becomes extinct or persists.
Subsequently, we explore a novel stochastic delayed SVIQR epidemic model with Markovian switching. We introduce a stochastic threshold, which we utilise to assess the conditions for disease extinction and persistence. The influence of time delay on the model is also investigated.
The thesis concludes with an analysis a triple-delayed stochastic epidemic model with general nonlinear incidence and Lévy noise. We propose a stochastic threshold and use it as a criterion to ascertain whether the disease would vanish or continue to exist within the population.

description: Superfluid $^3$He confined in aerogel offers a unique chance to study the effects of a short mean free path on the properties of a well defined superfluid Fermi liquid with anisotropic pairing. Transport coefficients and collective excitations, e.g. longitudinal sound, are expected to react sensitively to a short mean free path and to offer the possibility for testing recently developed models for quasiparticle scattering at aerogel strands. Sound experiments, together with a theoretical analysis based on Fermi liquid theory for systems with short mean free paths, should give valuable insights into the interaction between superfluid $^3$He and aerogel.

description: We present a nonperturbative calculation of all multifractal scaling exponents at strong disorder for critical wavefunctions of Dirac fermions interacting with a non-Abelian random vector potential in two dimensions. The results, valid for an arbitrary number of fermionic flavours, are obtained by deriving from Conformal Field Theory an effective Gaussian model for the wavefunction amplitudes and mapping to the thermodynamics of a single particle in a random potential. Our spectrum confirms that the wavefunctions remain delocalized in the presence of strong disorder.

description: Being motivated by the surge of fermionic quantum Monte Carlo simulations at finite temperature, we present a detailed analysis of the permutation-cycle properties of path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations of degenerate electrons. Particular emphasis is put onto the uniform electron gas in the warm dense matter regime. We carry out PIMC simulations of up to $N=100$ electrons and investigate exchange-cycle frequencies, which are found not to follow any simple exponential law even in the case of ideal fermions due to the finite size of the simulation box. Moreover, we introduce a permutation-cycle correlation function, which allows us to analyse the joint probability to simultaneously find cycles of different lengths within a single configuration. Again, we find that finite-size effects predominate the observed behaviour. Finally, we briefly consider an inhomogeneous system, namely electrons in a $2D$ harmonic trap. We expect our results to be of interest for the further development of fermionic PIMC methods, in particular to alleviate the notorious fermion sign problem.

The tool can also be used by workers whose job it is to help people whose money is not being used in the right way.Sometimes when people don’t use your money in the right way it is family violence. If people are not using your money in the right way there might be other family violence happening too. Using these questions might help you to think about whether somebody is not using your money in the right way. There are people who think that not using your money in the right way is OK. It is not OK and you should know that there are things to do and people who can help to stop it from happening.The research team would like to thank the women who participated in the focus groups and final consultation as well as those who shared their stories with us for the original ANROWS-funded research upon which this project is based. We would also like to extend our thanks to the numerous stakeholders and experts who contributed so generously during the focus groups and afterwards.We thank the Victorian Women’s Benevolent Trust for funding this project as part of their small grants program in 2018-2019. We would also like to acknowledge the ANROWS funding for Women Disability and Violence: Creating Access to Justice that began this work and we would like to thank members of the research team with whom we worked on this project, Dr Claire Spivakovsky and Professor Jude McCulloch from Monash University, Kara Beavis from Oueensland University of Technology, and Dr Jessica Cadwallader, Meredith Lea and Therese Sands from People with Disability Australia.
Quantization of Dirac fields in static spacetime

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: On a static spacetime, the solutions of the Dirac equation are generated by a time-independent Hamiltonian. We study this Hamiltonian and characterize the split into positive and negative energy. We use it to find explicit expressions for advanced and retarded fundamental solutions and for the propagator. Finally, we use a fermion Fock space based on the positive/negative energy split to define a Dirac quantum field operator whose commutator is the propagator.

Year: 2024

description: The Bokashi system has been introduced in pig production to reduce odors and improve overall health conditions of the pigs. By using Indigenous micro-organisms (IMO's), offensive smells are suppressed, fat layers are reduced, and robust pigs are produced without the need for antibiotics. Proper construction of pig sties, adequate feeding, and daily management are key to success in the Bokashi piggery system. This system allows producers to reach marketable weights for fatteners in 6-8 months and produce compost that can be used in organic farming and as fish feed

description: The Kondo problem of two impurities in 1D strongly correlated electron system within the framework of the open boundary Hubbard chain is solved and the impurities, coupled to the ends of the electron system, are introduced by their scattering matrices with electrons so that the boundary matrices satisfy the reflecting integrability condition. The finite size correction of the ground state energy is obtained due to the impurities. Exact expressions for the low temperature specific heat contributed by the charge and spin parts of the magnetic impurities are derived. The Pauli susceptibility and the Kondo temperature are given explicitly. The Kondo temperature is inversely proportional to the density of electrons.

description: The aim of the paper is to establish a certain logic corresponding to lattice effect algebras. First, we answer a natural question whether a lattice effect algebra can be represented by means of a groupoid-like structure. We establish a one-to-one correspondence between lattice effect algebras and certain groupoids with an antitone involution. Using these groupoids, we are able to introduce a suitable logic for lattice effect algebras.

description: Quantum mechanics postulates the existence of states determined by a particle position at a single time. This very concept, in conjunction with superposition, induces much of the quantum-mechanical structure. In particular, it implies the time evolution to obey the Schroedinger equation, and it can be used to complete a truely basic derivation of the statistical axiom as recently proposed by Deutsch.
