description: By implementing a genetic algorithm we search for stable vacua in Type IIB non-geometric flux compactification on an isotropic torus with orientifold 3-planes. We find that the number of stable dS and AdS vacua are of the same order. Moreover we find that in all dS vacua the multi-field slow-roll inflationary conditions are fulfilled. Specifically we observe that inflation is driven by the axio-dilaton and the Kähler moduli. We also comment on the existence of one stable dS vacuum in the presence of exotic orientifolds.

description: We investigate superfluid properties and strong-coupling effects in a one-component Fermi gas with an anisotropic p-wave interaction. Within the framework of the Gaussian fluctuation theory, we determine the superfluid transition temperature $T_{\rm c}$, as well as the temperature $T_0$ at which the phase transition from the $p_x$-wave pairing state to the $p_x+ip_y$-wave state occurs below $T_{\rm c}$. We also show that while the anisotropy of the p-wave interaction enhances $T_{\rm c}$ in the strong-coupling regime, it suppresses $T_0$.

description: Abstract
The Rural Economic Financing Scheme (SPED) programme, initiated by the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW), aims to enhance rural areas' development, and uplift the socio-economic status of rural communities. Despite being implemented for two decades since 2001, no comprehensive studies have examined the impact of SPED on entrepreneurs, particularly regarding the implications of financing on their businesses. This study focuses on the issue of Non-Performing Loans (NPL) among SPED borrowers, aiming to identify the contributing factors to NPL problems. To achieve the study's objective, a mixed-methods research design was employed, incorporating quantitative and qualitative approaches. The findings indicate that entrepreneurs experiencing NPL issues often face challenges stemming from their limited knowledge, skills, and inadequate financial management capabilities, such as insufficient understanding of loan terms, ineffective financial planning, and suboptimal debt management. This study's outcomes contribute to a better understanding of the implications of SPED financing on entrepreneurs in rural areas and shed light on the factors influencing NPL among SPED borrowers, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support mechanisms, such as training programs and mentorship opportunities, to enhance the financial management skills of SPED borrowers and mitigate NPL risks.
title: Determinants of repeat visitation for Las Vegas “locals” casinos
Creators: name: Ross, David D.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2005

description: The proliferation of gaming is unprecedented.  As many states look to gaming as a source of revenue for a poor fiscal policy, this research becomes more valuable.  Many people fail to make the correlation between these new jurisdictions, Tribal or Indian gaming opportunities, and the “locals” market.  The argument is, not many people are traveling to Barona or Harrah’s Rincon outside of San Diego, California for their vacation from New York City. Therefore, these primary markets are considered to be more localized.  Localized markets could be referred to as geographic segmentation as opposed to other segmentation strategies.  The strengths of this study builds on previous literature and suggest insight into attitudinal and behavior characteristics that are determinants of repeat visitation. The application of the research will develop a better understanding of what attributes a Las Vegas local gaming customer prefers.

title: Hotel revenue management: Investigating the interaction of information technology and judgmental forecasting
Creators: name: Chen, I-Pei Claire
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Traditionally, forecasting has included human judgment and/ or guessing.  The process has often been described as “guesstimation.”  For instance, people are easily affected by user interface issue or rewarding policies during this process.  The purpose of the study is to study and understand how revenue managers and other decision makers “make noise” during forecasting, especially when utilizing the advanced RMS, and to offer constructive suggestions to overcome the issues related to human judgment.  In other words, the main objective of this study is to analyze the known influential factors for the interaction of revenue managers’ judgment and RMS tools by reviewing existing literature and making suggestions to improve forecasting in the hotel industry.

Full-length membranes used for immunodetection of ALT proteins following transfer from Tris-Tricine SDS-PAGE gels and staining with Ponceau S, and following immunodetection with anti-T7 mouse monoclonal primary antibody and an anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody. Ponceau-stained membranes were imaged under white light with an exposure time of 1/30s. Probed membranes were imaged at 59 s exposure using a BioRad ChemiDoc XRS+ system with ImageLab v6.0.1 software. Black rectangles delineate where Ponceau-stained membranes were cut prior to being probed with antibody, and the boundaries of probed membranes. Red rectangles indicate regions where membranes were cropped to construct Fig. 5. Graphs relating ALT protein accumulation to total FA + MK productivity in E. coli are shown to the right of each membrane. Total FA + MK productivity of ALTs, in units of nmol / mL OD600 is represented by grey bars, with bar height corresponding to values on the left-hand vertical axis. Dots (●) indicate relative expression levels of the heterologously expressed ALT proteins, with values on the right-hand vertical axis. Thioesterase productivity values reported are the average of triplicate samples, with error representing ± SE (data shown in Table S2). Relative protein expression levels were calculated by normalizing ALT band volume (intensity) on antibody-probed membranes to total lane volume on Ponceau S-stained membranes in ImageLab v6.0.1 software. Unlabelled lanes represent E. coli strains expressing ALT constructs that were not analyzed further in this work.
A Study of internship programs in the bed-and-breakfast industry
Creators: name: Frazier, Pamela
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Effective internship programs can offer both interns and employers significant benefits. For the college student or mid-career changer seeking entrance into an industry, an internship offers practical experience in an area of interest while providing valuable skills, bolstering a professional resume, and increasing a workers marketability. For the employer, internship programs can support operational success and reduce employee recruitment costs. Specific to the highly labor-intensive hotel industry, internship programs have been instrumental in filling labor shortages during peak seasons, which allow hotel organizations to consistently provide optimal guest service. An industry known for their high employee-turnover rates, internship programs have been a cost-effective tool used by hotel organizations to train and recruit new hires. However, within the bed-and-breakfast sector of the hotel industry, internship programs rarely exist. Are there characteristics unique to the bed-and-breakfast industry that makes implementing an internship program impractical? The purpose of this paper is to develop an internship program specifically designed for the needs of the bed-and- breakfast innkeeper, while offering a quality educational experience for the intern. The objective of this study is to explore the use of internship programs in the hotel industry and to determine how such programs can benefit the bed-and-breakfast industry.

description: Heteronuclear dimers are of significant interest to experiments seeking to exploit ultracold polar molecules in a number of novel ways including precision measurement, quantum computing, and quantum simulation. We calculate highly accurate Born-Oppenheimer total energies and electric dipole moments as a function of internuclear separation for two such dimers, LiSr and KRb. We apply fully-correlated, high-accuracy quantum Monte Carlo methods for evaluating these molecular properties in a many-body framework. We use small-core effective potentials combined with multi-reference Slater-Jastrow trial wave functions to provide accurate nodes for the fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo method. For reference and comparison, we calculate the same properties with Hartree-Fock and with restricted Configuration Interaction methods, and carefully assess the impact of the recovered many-body correlations on the calculated quantities. For LiSr we find a highly nonlinear dipole moment curve, which may make this molecule's dipole moment tunable through vibrational state control.

Production, purification and crystallization of membrane integrated multimeric Bax
Creators: name: Villoso, Adelbert Mark
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a vital process intimately involved in the embryonic development and homeostatic maintenance of all multicellular organisms. The committing step to apoptosis is regulated by a key protein, Bax, and its ability to integrate and form a pore structure at the outer mitochondrial membrane.
  Unfortunately, the molecular details of apoptosis remain largely unclear due to the lack of structural data of integral membrane (IM) Bax. Experimental limitations of membrane protein production have slowed the pursuit of an IM-Bax structure simply because standard protocols for producing recombinant IM-Bax are inefficient in producing adequate quantities of IM-Bax protein. This complication makes it difficult to study Bax in its activated oligomeric state and essentially impossible to develop a protein crystal for x-ray structure analysis.
  In this thesis, we have developed solutions to these substantial problems by utilizing the membrane affinity properties of the protein Mistic to promote the membrane integration and efficient protein production of Bax in an E. coli expression system. In addition, we have discovered detergent conditions optimized for high protein yield and stability of an activated trimeric Bax. The activated trimer complex was further characterized by size-exclusion chromatography and multi-angle light scattering techniques to detail the molecular contributions of protein in the detergent-protein complex. Most importantly, the effectiveness of our protocols has produced the first xray diffracting crystal of an activated Bax multimer, an invaluable tool for the solution structure of activated Bax complex. This hallmark in apoptosis research will further complete the understanding of apoptosis mechanism and ultimately lead to the development of a new realm of effective pharmaceuticals.
Self-organized dynamics in local load sharing fiber bundle models

description: We study the dynamics of a local load sharing fiber bundle model in two dimensions, under an external load (which increases with time at a fixed slow rate) applied at a single point. Due to the local load sharing nature, the redistributed load remains localized along the boundary of the broken patch. The system then goes to a self-organized state with a stationary average value of load per fiber along the (increasing) boundary of the broken patch (damaged region) and a scale free distribution of avalanche sizes and other related quantities are observed. In particular, when the load redistribution is only among nearest surviving fiber(s), the numerical estimates of the exponent values are comparable with those of the Manna model. When the load redistribution is uniform along the patch boundary, the model shows a simple mean-field limit of this self-organizing critical behaviour, for which we give analytical estimates of the saturation load per fiber values and avalanche size distribution exponent. These are in good agreement with numerical simulation results.

description: We theoretically study subgap states appearing at the interface between two three-dimensional topological insulators which have different configurations in the spin-orbit interactions from each other. The coupling of spin $\boldsymbolσ$ with momenta $\boldsymbol{p}$ is configured by a material dependent $3\times 3$ matrix $\boldsymbolΛ$ as $σ^μΛ_μ^νp_ν$. We show that the spectra of the interface suggap states depend strongly on the relative choices of $\boldsymbolΛ$ in the two topological insulators. In particular, we focus on properties of gapless states which appear when $\boldsymbolΛ$ in two topological insulators are connected by the inversion in momentum space. We also discuss the robustness of the gapless states under perturbations breaking the time-reversal symmetry or the band-inversion symmetry by the numerical simulation.

Evaluating the energy and carbon footprint of water conveyance system and future water supply options for Las Vegas, Nevada
Creators: name: Shrestha, Eleeja
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Water production requires the use of energy to transport water from distant locations, pump groundwater from deep aquifers and treat water to meet stringent drinking water and wastewater regulations. Energy production based on its source involves the emission of greenhouse gases also known as carbon footprint, which is the leading cause of global warming and climate change. Because of growing concerns of global warming due to these emissions, water providers are required to analyze the energy and associated carbon footprint of existing water production facilities and future water supply options. A system dynamics model is developed to estimate the energy requirements and carbon footprint as its consequence to move water in the distribution laterals of the Las Vegas Valley. The model is also used to evaluate the two future supply options for the Las Vegas Valley: seawater desalination and water conveyance from distant locations using water conveyance infrastructures. The simulation results show that it requires significant amount of energy to lift water from water source to water treatment plants (0.3 million megawatt hours per year (MWh/y)) and then to distribute treated water in distribution laterals (0.55 MWh/y) in 2010. It requires more energy to distribute treated water (65%) when compared to lift water from source to treatment plants (35%). Different scenarios including change in population growth rate, water conservation, increase in water reuse, change in the Lake level, change in fuel sources, change in emission rates, and combination of multiple scenarios are tested to evaluate the change in energy requirements and associated carbon footprint. The increase in water conservation resulted to be the most energy efficient option and consequently generated lower carbon footprint. The reduction of per capita water demand to 753 lpcd (199 gpcd) by 2035 lowered the energy requirements and associated carbon footprint by 16.5%. In addition, reuse of wastewater effluent within the Valley can be an excellent way of saving energy. However, reusing only 77 million cubic meters (MCM) (56 mgd) treated wastewater effluent by 2020 results in the decrease of energy consumption by nearly 3.6%. If 20% of the treated wastewater can be reused within the Valley besides status quo reuse (127 MCM or 92 mgd), the energy consumption and associated carbon footprint is lowered by 9% by the year 2035. Of the two water supply options, seawater desalination is more energy intensive (96% higher) as compared to the water conveyance from remote locations and the associated carbon footprint is 47% higher. However, desalination option is cost efficient. The unit cost of seawater desalination is $0.56/m3 and where as $0.68/m3 for water conveyance from distant sources.

description: Abstract of the Nature Protocols Publication:Mammalian cells sense and react to the mechanics of their immediate microenvironment. The characterization of the biomechanical properties of tissues with high spatial resolution, therefore, provides valuable insights into a broad variety of developmental, homeostatic, and pathological processes within living organism. The biomechanical properties of the basement membrane (BM), an extracellular matrix (ECM) sub-structure measuring only ~100 - 400 nm across are, among other things, pivotal to tumour progression and metastasis formation. Although the precise assignment of the Young’s modulus E of such a thin ECM sub-structure especially in between two cell layers is still challenging, biomechanical data of the BM can provide information of eminent diagnostic potential. Here, we present a detailed protocol to quantify the elastic modulus of the BM in murine and human lung tissue, which is one of the major organs prone to metastasis. This protocol describes a streamlined workflow to determine the Young’s modulus E of the BM between the endothelial and epithelial cell layers shaping the alveolar wall in lung tissues using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Our step-by-step protocol provides instructions for murine and human lung tissue extraction, inflation of these tissues with cryogenic cutting medium, freezing and cryo-sectioning of the tissue samples, and AFM force-map recording. In addition, it guides the reader through a semi-automatic data analysis procedure to identify the pulmonary BM and extract its Young’s modulus E using an in-house tailored user-friendly AFM data analysis software, the CANTER Processing Toolbox, which enables automatic loading of the recorded force maps, conversion of the force vs. piezo-extension curves to force vs. indentation curves, calculation of Young’s moduli and generation of Young’s modulus maps, where the pulmonary BM can be identified using a semi-automatic spatial filtering tool. The entire protocol takes 1 - 2 days.

description: This paper studies the defectivity of secant varieties of Segre varieties. We prove that there exists an asymptotic lower estimate for the greater non-defective secant variety (without filling the ambient space) of any given Segre variety. In particular, we prove that the ratio between the greater non-defective secant variety of a Segre variety and its expected rank is lower bounded by a value depending just on the number of factors of the Segre variety. Moreover, in the final section, we present some results obtained by explicit computation, proving the non-defectivity of all the secant varieties of Segre varieties of the shape (P^n)^4, with 1 < n < 11, except at most σ_199((P^8)^4) and σ_357((P^10)^4).

description: In this article, we discuss about the resolution of the Riemann problem for a 2x2 system in nonconservative form exhibiting parabolic degeneracy. The system can be perceived as the limiting equation (depending on a parameter tending to 0) of a 2x2 strictly hyperbolic, genuinely nonlinear, non-conservative system arising in context of a model in elastodynamics.
description: A revised version with considerable change in content. The title of the article has been changed to 'Riemann Problem for a limiting system in elastodynamics'. The contents of the earlier version in arxiv is Section 2 in this revised version. The abstract has been changed as well

description: Background: Polymyxins including colistin are an important "last-line" treatment for infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKp). Increasing use of colistin has led to resistance to this cationic antimicrobial peptide.

Methods: A cohort nested within the Consortium on Resistance against Carbapenems in Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRACKLE) was constructed of patients with infection, or colonization with CRKp isolates tested for colistin susceptibility during the study period of December, 2011 to October, 2014. Reference colistin resistance determination as performed by broth macrodilution was compared to results from clinical microbiology laboratories (Etest) and to polymyxin resistance testing. Each patient was included once, at the time of their first colistin-tested CRKp positive culture. Time to 30-day in-hospital all-cause mortality was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazard modeling.

Results: In 246 patients with CRKp, 13% possessed ColR CRKp. ColR was underestimated by Etest (very major error rate = 35%, major error rate = 0.4%). A variety of rep-PCR strain types were encountered in both the ColS and the ColR groups. Carbapenem resistance was mediated primarily by blaKPC-2 (46%) and blaKPC-3 (50%). ColR was associated with increased hazard for in-hospital mortality (aHR 3.48; 95% confidence interval, 1.73-6.57; P < .001). The plasmid-associated ColR genes, mcr-1 and mcr-2 were not detected in any of the ColR CRKp.

Conclusions: In this cohort, 13% of patients with CRKp presented with ColR CRKp. The apparent polyclonal nature of the isolates suggests de novo emergence of ColR in this cohort as the primary factor driving ColR. Importantly, mortality was increased in patients with ColR isolates.

description: Synthesis of high-value-added chemicals from biomass and/or biomass-derived platform molecules is considered an important strategy to mitigate the global dependency on fossil resources and include renewable resources in a circular economy. In recent years, the synthesis of bio-based plastics has received significant attention as a potential alternative to conventional industrial processes. Thus, a lot of effort has been put into the development of not only different classes of biomonomers but also bio-based drop-in chemicals. Amine-derived molecules, especially alcohol-amines, diamines, and N-heterocyclic amines, are the most important classes of functional monomers for the production of polyamides, polyimides, polyurethanes, and polyureas. Additionally, these amines are extensively used in pharmaceuticals. In this review, we will give a concise overview of the up-to-date methods for the production of industrially important amines from biomass-derived oxygenates. Special attention will be given to the catalytic amination of biomass aldehyde- and alcohol-based oxygenates, reaction mechanism, catalyst stability, as well as their specific challenges and opportunities. We anticipate this critical and comprehensive review to provide detailed insights into the synthesis of bio-based amines and guide the development of effective greener synthetic methodologies.
Determination of Resonances by the Optimized Spectral Approach

description: The Rayleigh-Ritz procedure for determining bound-states of the Schrödinger equation relies on spectral representation of the solution as a linear combination of the basis functions. Several possible extensions of the method to resonance states have been considered in the literature. Here we propose the application of the optimized Rayleigh-Ritz method to this end. The method uses a basis of the functions containing adjustable nonlinear parameters, the values of which are fixed so as to make the trace of the variational matrix stationary. Generalization to resonances proceeds by allowing the parameters to be complex numbers. Using various basis sets, we demonstrate that the optimized Rayleigh-Ritz scheme with complex parameters provides an effective algorithm for the determination of both the energy and lifetime of the resonant states for various one-dimensional and spherically symmetric potentials. The method is computationally inexpensive since it does not require iterations or predetermined initial values. The convergence rate compares favorably to other approaches.

description: The effective administration of the payment clause of a building contract is one of the most important tasks that the contract administrator and consultant quantity surveyor perform during the contract period. This study examines the principles and procedures for calculating interim payments in accordance with the terms of the Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI) ‘Yellow’ and ‘Blue’ Forms of Contract (2017) and the Public Works Contract Form - PW-CF1 (version 2.2 09/01/2017). These contract forms have recently been amended to take account of the Construction Contracts Act. The valuation principles and procedures are summarised and are applied to a number scenarios which have been examined at undergraduate level and in professional examinations.

The study is intended as a resource for Irish students undertaking undergraduate and conversion masters courses in quantity surveying and construction management related disciplines.

description: Auf den Punkt ...
Der Vergleich zwischen den Absolventenjahrgängen 2005 und 2008 im Ruhrgebiet ist durch einen Trend der Höherqualifizierung gekennzeichnet. Nahezu ein Drittel der Schulabsolventen hat 2008 die Schulkarriere mit dem (Fach ) Abitur beendet. Mit anderen Worten: Die Spitze ist breiter geworden!
Der Anteil der Schulabsolventen ohne Abschluss reduzierte sich dagegen nur geringfügig von 7,7 auf 7,3 %. Das verweist auf einen soliden Sockel des Scheiterns von Schülern im Ruhrgebiet und damit auf eine wachsende Polarisierung im Bildungserfolg.
Dennoch ist festzustellen, dass die Schüler im Ruhrgebiet insgesamt bessere Schulabschlüsse als im Bundesvergleich erzielen und damit fast gleichauf mit dem Land NRW liegen.
Bildungsgewinner sind vor allem einheimische junge Frauen; unzureichende Bildungserfolge erzielen dagegen ausländische junge Männer.
Aus der intraregionalen Perspektive betrachtet, bilden das nördliche Ruhrgebiet mit den Städten Gelsenkirchen, Bottrop und dem Kreis Recklinghausen sowie die Städte Duisburg und Hamm die Schlusslichter beim Bildungserfolg. Die Botschaft lautet hier: Zu wenig Abiturienten und zu viele Schulabgänger ohne Abschluss bzw. nur mit einem Hauptschulabschluss, was den Übergang von der Schule in die berufliche Bildung beeinträchtigt.
