Interference Cancellation at the Relay for Multi-User Wireless Cooperative Networks

description: We study multi-user transmission and detection schemes for a multi-access relay network (MARN) with linear constraints at all nodes. In a $(J, J_a, R_a, M)$ MARN, $J$ sources, each equipped with $J_a$ antennas, communicate to one $M$-antenna destination through one $R_a$-antenna relay. A new protocol called IC-Relay-TDMA is proposed which takes two phases. During the first phase, symbols of different sources are transmitted concurrently to the relay. At the relay, interference cancellation (IC) techniques, previously proposed for systems with direct transmission, are applied to decouple the information of different sources without decoding. During the second phase, symbols of different sources are forwarded to the destination in a time division multi-access (TDMA) fashion. At the destination, the maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding is performed source-by-source. The protocol of IC-Relay-TDMA requires the number of relay antennas no less than the number of sources, i.e., $R_a\ge J$. Through outage analysis, the achievable diversity gain of the proposed scheme is shown to be $\min\{J_a(R_a-J+1),R_aM\}$. When {\small$M\le J_a\left(1-\frac{J-1}{R_a}\right)$}, the proposed scheme achieves the maximum interference-free (int-free) diversity gain $R_aM$. Since concurrent transmission is allowed during the first phase, compared to full TDMA transmission, the proposed scheme achieves the same diversity, but with a higher symbol rate.

description: A forthcoming challenge in ultracold lattice gases is the simulation of quantum magnetism. That involves both the preparation of the lattice atomic gas in the desired spin state and the probing of the state. Here we demonstrate how a probing scheme based on atom-light interfaces gives access to the order parameters of nontrivial quantum magnetic phases, allowing us to characterize univocally strongly correlated magnetic systems produced in ultracold gases. This method, which is also nondemolishing, yields spatially resolved spin correlations and can be applied to bosons or fermions. As a proof of principle, we apply this method to detect the complete phase diagram displayed by a chain of (rotationally invariant) spin-1 bosons.

description: Le manuel scolaire est au cœur de l’enseignement et de l’apprentissage car il est le médiateur entre l’enseignant et les élèves. Il est traité presque avec vénération, de par son statut d’objet véhiculant des contenus qui devront être sus, maîtrisés et vérifiés chez les élèves. Le manuel scolaire peut donc avoir une influence considérable sur le développement social et psychique des élèves, et ces derniers vont ensuite transporter les savoirs appris à l’école dans leur vie sociale. C’est à l’heure de la remise en question de la place et du rôle des femmes et des hommes dans notre société que nous avons voulu interroger le nouveau manuel romand d’histoire destiné aux 9ème HARMOS. L’analyse d’un manuel dans une perspective de genre nous a semblé encore plus nécessaire en histoire, car cette discipline est le reflet d’un passé largement dominé par le masculin, que ce soit en termes des protagonistes présentés mais aussi de par le fait que l’écriture de l’histoire a quasiment toujours été l’apanage des hommes. Nous nous sommes donc focalisés sur la place et la représentation des femmes dans un nombre de chapitres définis par notre future pratique professionnelle dans une perspective multidimensionnelle : présence quantitative, et représentation qualitative principalement. Le tout en prenant en compte dans le corpus des documents de différents types (images et textes). Si par rapport aux anciens manuels en usage la présence féminine reste globalement soumise aux stéréotypes de genre et à une présence masculine toujours majoritaire, plusieurs résultats intéressants quant à la réduction des stéréotypes et à une présence accrue des femmes dans certains sujets permettent de proposer des correctifs pour l’usage du manuel en classe ainsi que des suggestions pour des projets éditoriaux ou rééditions futures de manuels scolaires.

description: Temperature is a strong driver of vector-borne disease transmission. Yet, for emerging arboviruses we lack fundamental knowledge on the relationship between transmission and temperature. Current models rely on the untested assumption that Zika virus responds similarly to dengue virus, potentially limiting our ability to accurately predict the spread of Zika. We conducted experiments to estimate the thermal performance of Zika virus (ZIKV) in field-derived Aedes aegypti across eight constant temperatures. We observed strong, unimodal effects of temperature on vector competence, extrinsic incubation period and mosquito survival. We used thermal responses of these traits to update an existing temperature-dependent model to infer temperature effects on ZIKV transmission. ZIKV transmission was optimized at 29°C, and had a thermal range of 22.7°C–34.7°C. Thus, as temperatures move towards the predicted thermal optimum (29°C) due to climate change, urbanization or seasonality, Zika could expand north and into longer seasons. In contrast, areas that are near the thermal optimum were predicted to experience a decrease in overall environmental suitability. We also demonstrate that the predicted thermal minimum for Zika transmission is 5°C warmer than that of dengue, and current global estimates on the environmental suitability for Zika are greatly over-predicting its possible range.

We also study the asymptotic behavior of this largest degree for finite groups of Lie type. Moreover, we show that for groups of Lie type, the Steinberg character has largest degree among all unipotent characters.

description: We study the properties of a non-Gaussian density matrix for a O(N) scalar field in the context of the incomplete description picture. This is of relevance for studies of decoherence and entropy production in quantum field theory. In particular, we study how the inclusion of the simplest non-Gaussian correlator in the set of measured observables modifies the effective (Gaussian) description one can infer from the knowledge of the two-point functions only. We compute exactly the matrix elements of the non-Gaussian density matrix at leading order in a 1/N-expansion. This allows us to study the quantum properties (purity, entropy, coherence) of the corresponding state for arbitrarily strong nongaussianity. We find that if the Gaussian and the non-Gaussian observers essentially agree concerning quantum purity or correlation entropy, their conclusion can significantly differ for other, more detailed aspects such as the degree of quantum coherence of the system.

description: In a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) the goal is to find an assignment of a given set of variables subject to specified constraints. A global cardinality constraint is an additional requirement that prescribes how many variables must be assigned a certain value. We study the complexity of the problem CCSP(G), the constraint satisfaction problem with global cardinality constraints that allows only relations from the set G. The main result of this paper characterizes sets G that give rise to problems solvable in polynomial time, and states that the remaining such problems are NP-complete.

Il s’agit d’une étude de cas concernant un projet interculturel durant l’année académique 2018-2019 avec des étudiants de la HEP Vaud entre la Suisse et l’Inde. Les outils utilisés dans le cadre de ce mémoire sont le focus group et l’auto-observation. En ce qui concerner le focus group, il s’inscrit dans une approche qualitative composée d’un entretien de groupe semi-structuré lors duquel les participants s’expriment et échangent sur un sujet donné par un modérateur (Moreau, Dedianne, Letrillart & Le Goaziou, 2004). Les résultats de la recherche montrent qu’une majorité des sujets ont constaté une évolution de leurs compétences et pratiques enseignantes grâce à ce module. En outre, la plupart des participants a développé un savoir sur l’EDD et sa mise en pratique par le biais d’observations au sein de l’école Nai Talim en Inde. Finalement, seuls les étudiants en stage B ont pu expérimenter la réalisation d’un projet d’EDD dans leur classe. Pour terminer, les leviers et les freins qui peuvent engendrer une difficulté dans l’implémentation des aspects pédagogiques sont présentés et permettent d’affirmer que le transfert des expériences du terrain vécues en Inde sont difficiles à mettre en place dans un contexte suisse. C’est pourquoi, il est primordial de prendre en considération cet aspect avant même d’envisager une implémentation. Le module a réuni un groupe d’individus apportant chacun son savoir-faire, son savoir-être qui a donné lieu à une large palette de compétences hétérogènes. Chaque individu a vécu l’expérience au niveau personnel en fonction de ses valeurs, son histoire, sa personnalité et ses expériences.

description: A recently derived approach to the tensor reduction of 5-point one-loop Feynman integrals expresses the tensor coefficients by scalar 1-point to 4-point Feynman integrals completely algebraically. In this letter we derive extremely compact algebraic expressions for the contractions of the tensor integrals with external momenta. This is based on sums over signed minors weighted with scalar products of the external momenta. With these contractions one can construct the invariant amplitudes of the matrix elements under consideration, and the evaluation of one-loop contributions to massless and massive multi-particle production at high energy colliders like LHC and ILC is expected to be performed very efficiently.

description: The quantum master equation obtained from two different thermodynamic arguments is seriously nonlinear. We argue that, for quantum systems, nonlinearity occurs naturally in the step from reversible to irreversible equations and we analyze the nature and consequences of the nonlinear contribution. The thermodynamic nonlinearity naturally leads to canonical equilibrium solutions and extends the range of validity to lower temperatures. We discuss the Markovian character of the thermodynamic quantum master equation and introduce a solution strategy based on coupled evolution equations for the eigenstates and eigenvalues of the density matrix. The general ideas are illustrated for the two-level system and for the damped harmonic oscillator. Several conceptual implications of the nonlinearity of the thermodynamic quantum master equation are pointed out, including the absence of a Heisenberg picture and the resulting difficulties with defining multi-time correlations.

Light-front dynamic analysis of transition form factors in the process of $P\to V\ellν_{\ell}$

description: We investigate the light-front zero-mode contribution to the weak transition form factors between pseudoscalar and vector mesons using a covariant fermion field theory model in $(3+1)$ dimensions. In particular, we discuss the form factors $a_-(q^2)$ and $f(q^2)$ which have been suspected to have the zero-mode contribution in the $q^+=0$ frame. While the zero-mode contribution in principle depends on the form of the vector meson vertex $Γ^μ=γ^μ- (2k-P_V)^μ/D$, the form factor $f(q^2)$ is found to be free from the zero mode if the denominator $D$ contains the term proportional to the light-front longitudinal momentum fraction factor $(1/x)^n$ of the struck quark with the power $n>0$. Although the form factor $a_-(q^2)$ is not free from the zero mode, the zero-mode contribution comes only either from the simple vertex $Γ^μ=γ^μ$ term or from the other term just with a constant $D$ (i.e. $n=0$), but not with the momentum-dependent denominator (i.e. $D\sim (1/x)^n$ with $n>0$). We identify the zero-mode contribution to $a_-(q^2)$ and incorporate it as a convolution of the zero-mode operator with the initial and final state light-front wave functions. The covariance (i.e. frame independence) of our model has been checked by performing the light-front calculations both in the $q^+=0$ and $q^+\neq 0$ frames. We present our numerical result for the $B\toρ$ transition for an explicit demonstration of our findings.

Palladium membrane reactor as a tool to resolve hydrogenation reaction pathways
Creators: name: Huang, Aoxue
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Heterogeneous hydrogenation is an important industrial process widely used in fine chemical syntheses, pharmaceutical, food, and biofuel production. Hydrogenation is performed by combining reactants (H2 gas and substrates) in one reactor, where both react on the same catalyst surface. This combination of reactants complicates understanding the catalytic process because several competing processes will occur on the same catalyst surface. The electrocatalytic palladium membrane reactor (ePMR) is a unique hydrogenation reactor that separates the hydrogen activation from the hydrogenation process. This reactor not only enables hydrogenation to be performed at ambient temperatures and pressures but also provides fine-tuning of the amount of hydrogen supplied (fugacity) by tuning the applied current. This thesis presents a series of work related to the heterogeneous catalytic processes in the ePMR. This thesis first presents the study of electrochemical processes of the palladium electrode. A customized temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) instrument was built to characterize the palladium films electrochemically saturated with absorbed hydrogen (PdHx for x > 0.6). The electrolyte choice is found to affect hydrogen sorption and desorption kinetics on the palladium surface due to the specific adsorption of the anion. The thesis then presents the advantages of ePMR to study the reaction pathway of hydrogenation. The conventional thermochemical hydrogenation process requires high temperatures and pressure, which may lead to morphology change of the catalysts. It also complicates the understanding of hydrogenation because multiple catalytic processes occur on the same catalyst surface. The ePMR enables the hydrogenation at ambient conditions and separates the catalytic process. The hydrogenation pathway of benzaldehyde is successfully resolved on the palladium nanocubes by combining the ePMR and well-defined nanocubes. Finally, the use of ePMR for hydrogen peroxide production is demonstrated. Hydrogen peroxide is a crucial chemical for various applications. The production of hydrogen peroxide is a carbon-intensive process that requires the hydrogenation and oxidation of an intermediate molecule. The direct hydrogenation of oxygen can simplify the infrastructure and decrease the capital cost of the process but is risky for using the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen. The ePMR can supply high-fugacity hydrogen in-situ and overcome these disadvantages.

description: Ce mémoire présente une utilisation spécifique du schéma au service des apprentissages des élèves, dans une séquence portant sur la société féodale. Sachant que certains dispositifs pédagogiques accentuent les inégalités scolaires, le schéma1 serait un outil d’inclusion. La littérature relève plusieurs avantages des outils visuels pour les élèves, tels que structurer les idées par écrit, avoir une meilleure mémorisation et attention, et s’approprier plus facilement des concepts étudiés. Une future étape, qui ne fait pas partie de ce mémoire, serait de tester l’efficacité réelle de cet outil sur les apprentissages des élèves lors d’une application en classe de cette séquence. Une recherche a été menée auprès d’enseignants d’histoire afin de déterminer leur utilisation des schémas. Les résultats montrent que les outils visuels privilégiés sont la frise chronologique, les outils de synthèse et lacunaires. Les participants trouvent les schémas utiles pour synthétiser et hiérarchiser l’information, ainsi que compléter les documents textuels. Enfin, il ressort que l’utilisation des schémas n’est pas habituelle durant une séquence entière. Ces constats indiquent un écart entre l'usage de cet outil fait en classe et l’exploitation proposée dans ce travail. Ce schéma sur la féodalité donne aux élèves la perspective du thème d’étude, en leur permettant d’anticiper le sujet donné, d’y réfléchir et se questionner. La dimension de l’enquête historienne a été intégrée à cet outil visuel, consistant à résoudre une énigme par le travail des sources ; cependant, il n’est pas nécessaire d’utiliser cette démarche de l’enquête. Ce schéma, préparé par l’enseignant, est distribué au premier cours. Il est complété et modifié au fur et à mesure des concepts étudiés!; il accompagne donc la séquence du début à la fin. Afin de transférer cette utilisation à d’autres sujets d’histoire, un procédé méthodologique est proposé. Il y est expliqué les différentes étapes pour mettre au point un schéma, à savoir l’identification du contexte d’enseignement, l’élaboration de cet outil en lien avec la problématique et son évolution selon les phases de la séquence.

At very low temperatures data show excitations over an energy gap (2DS/kBTc \approx 2.1) much smaller than the BCS value. The overall temperature dependence of the electronic specific heat Ce can be explained either by the existence of a strongly anisotropic single-energy gap or within a two-gap scenario with the large gap about twice bigger than the small one. The field dependence of the Sommerfeld coefficient shows a strong curvature for both principal-field orientations, parallel and perpendicular to the c axis of the crystal, resulting in a magnetic field dependence of the superconducting anisotropy. These features are discussed in comparison to the case of MgB2 and to the data obtained by scanning-tunneling spectroscopy. We conclude that the two-gap scenario better describes the gap structure of NbS2 than the anisotropic s-wave model.

description: Abstract: This study offers a deep and innovative approach to the analysis of the Goldbach Conjecture, a milestone in number theory, through the application of the Carvalho Sposito Theorems and the Carvalho-Buccini Theorem on the Asymptotic Convergence of Successive Root Sequences. This research combines number theory with advanced mathematical concepts, exploring how these theorems can be used to reveal unique patterns in the composition of pairs of prime numbers that add up to even numbers. The analysis focuses on the implementation of these theorems to investigate complex numerical properties in higher-dimensional spaces, opening up new perspectives in the study of one of mathematics' most persistent puzzles. The research adopts an interdisciplinary methodology, integrating techniques of algebraic geometry, topology and complex analysis. The Carvalho–Buccini Theorem, in particular, is applied to examine the nature of number sequences and their asymptotic convergence, providing insights into the underlying structure of sums of prime numbers. The study also delves into the modeling of multidimensional spaces, using Carvalho Sposito's Theorems to visualize and analyze the distribution and relationships between prime numbers in a context beyond traditional one-dimensional perception. This multidimensional approach not only challenges but also enriches the conventional understanding of number theory, offering a new lens through which the Goldbach Conjecture is explored. Applying these advanced techniques reveals previously unexplored patterns and correlations, suggesting a deeper structure in the way prime numbers interact to form even sums. This work not only provides a new theoretical approach to the Goldbach Conjecture, but also bridges the gap between diverse areas of mathematics, from analytic number theory to higherdimensional geometry. The result is a richer and more detailed understanding of the nature of prime numbers and their summation properties. This study paves the way for future investigations, setting a precedent for the use of multidimensional approaches in solving classical and complex mathematical problems.

description: Non-chiral operators with positive anomalous dimensions can have interesting applications to supersymmetric model building. Motivated by this, we develop a new method for obtaining the anomalous dimensions of non-chiral double-trace operators in N=1 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with weakly-coupled AdS duals. Via the Hamiltonian formulation of AdS/CFT, we show how to directly compute the anomalous dimension as a bound state energy in the gravity dual. This simplifies previous approaches based on the four-point function and the OPE. We apply our method to a class of effective AdS5 supergravity models, and we find that the binding energy can have either sign. If such models can be UV completed, they will provide the first calculable examples of SCFTs with positive anomalous dimensions.

description: Temperature is a strong driver of vector-borne disease transmission. Yet, for emerging arboviruses we lack fundamental knowledge on the relationship between transmission and temperature. Current models rely on the untested assumption that Zika virus responds similarly to dengue virus, potentially limiting our ability to accurately predict the spread of Zika. We conducted experiments to estimate the thermal performance of Zika virus (ZIKV) in field-derived Aedes aegypti across eight constant temperatures. We observed strong, unimodal effects of temperature on vector competence, extrinsic incubation period and mosquito survival. We used thermal responses of these traits to update an existing temperature-dependent model to infer temperature effects on ZIKV transmission. ZIKV transmission was optimized at 29°C, and had a thermal range of 22.7°C–34.7°C. Thus, as temperatures move towards the predicted thermal optimum (29°C) owing to climate change, urbanization or seasonality, Zika could expand north and into longer seasons. By contrast, areas that are near the thermal optimum were predicted to experience a decrease in overall environmental suitability. We also demonstrate that the predicted thermal minimum for Zika transmission is 5°C warmer than that of dengue, and current global estimates on the environmental suitability for Zika are greatly over-predicting its possible range.

description: This survey paper contains an elementary exposition of Casson and Rivin's technique for finding the hyperbolic metric on a 3-manifold M with toroidal boundary. We also survey a number of applications of this technique. The method involves subdividing M into ideal tetrahedra and solving a system of gluing equations to find hyperbolic shapes for the tetrahedra. The gluing equations decompose into a linear and non-linear part. The solutions to the linear equations form a convex polytope A. The solution to the non-linear part (unique if it exists) is a critical point of a certain volume functional on this polytope. The main contribution of this paper is an elementary proof of Rivin's theorem that a critical point of the volume functional on A produces a complete hyperbolic structure on M.

description: The purpose of this Bachelorâs thesis is to study and compare two methods of reinforcement for compression members (columns) and their application in the construction and structural design of highârise buildings. The main part of the information for the solutions was taken from the references stated at the end of the thesis. Firstly, the history, different frame systems, and main loads were discussed. The second part was completely dedicated to the calculations and simulations. Ðfter the calculation, it was found that the two columns differed in certain aspects. one of the aspects was the ratio of weight to stiffness. the column with composite rebar has a better ration of structure performance to material usage than standard tie reinforced columns.

description: Measuring the muon flux is important to the Sanford Underground Laboratory at Homestake, for which several low background experiments are being planned. The nearly-vertical cosmic ray muon flux was measured in three locations at this laboratory: on the surface (1.149 \pm 0.017 x 10^-2 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1), at the 800-ft (0.712 km w.e.) level (2.67 \pm 0.06 x 10^-6 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1), and at the 2000-ft (1.78 km w.e.) level (2.56 \pm 0.25 x 10^-7 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1). These fluxes agree well with model predictions.

description: We study the quark-hadron mixed phase in proto-neutron stars with the finite-size effects. In the calculations of pasta structures appeared in the mixed phase, the Gibbs conditions require the pressure balance and chemical equilibrium between two phases besides the thermal equilibrium. We find that the region of the mixed phase is limited due to thermal instability. Moreover, we study the effects of neutrinos to the pasta structures. As a result, we find that the existence of neutrinos make the pasta structures unstable, too. These characteristic features of the hadron-quark mixed phase should be important for the middle stage of the evolutions of proto-neutron stars.
