description: The non-reciprocity of Sagnac interferometer provides ultra-high sensitivity for parameter estimation and offers a wide range of applications, especially for optical fiber sensing. In this work, we study a new type of non-reciprocity existed in optical fiber Sagnac interferometer where the polarization dependent loss is taken into consideration. In particular, this non-reciprocity is irrelevant to the physical effects that being considered in previous studies, which originates from the geometric phases induced by continuous-weak-measurement. In consequence, it has a unique phenomenon of sudden phase transition, which may open a new way for the future design of high precision optical fiber sensors.

description: We derive the first positivity bounds for low-energy Effective Field Theories (EFTs) that are not invariant under Lorentz boosts. "Positivity bounds" are the low-energy manifestation of certain fundamental properties in the UV -- to date they have been used to constrain a wide variety of EFTs, however since all of the existing bounds require Lorentz invariance they are not directly applicable when this symmetry is broken, such as for most cosmological and condensed matter systems. From the UV axioms of unitarity, causality and locality, we derive an infinite family of bounds which (derivatives of) the $2\to2$ EFT scattering amplitude must satisfy even when Lorentz boosts are broken (either spontaneously or explicitly). We apply these bounds to the leading-order EFT of both a superfluid and the scalar fluctuations produced during inflation, comparing in the latter case with the current observational constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity.

description: We use atomistic computer simulations to provide a microscopic description of the brittle failure of amorphous materials, and we assess the role of rare events and quenched disorder. We argue that brittle yielding originates at rare soft regions, similarly to Griffiths effects in disordered systems. We numerically demonstrate how localized plastic events in such soft regions trigger macroscopic failure via the propagation of a shear band. This physical picture, which no longer holds in poorly annealed ductile materials, allows us to discuss the role of finite size effects in brittle yielding and reinforces the similarities between yielding and other disorder-controlled nonequilibrium phase transitions.

A pullback functor for reduced and unreduced $L^{q,p}$-cohomology
Creators: name: Spessato, Stefano
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Differential Geometry (math.DG)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: In this paper we study the reduced and unreduced $L^{q,p}$-cohomology groups of manifolds of bounded geometry and their behavior under uniform maps. A \textit{uniform map} is a uniformly continuous map such that the diameter of the preimage is bounded in terms of the diameter of the subset. In general, the pullback map along a uniformly proper lipschitz map doesn't induce a morphism in, reduced or not, $L^{q,p}$-cohomology. Then, our goal is to introduce some contravariant functors between the category of manifolds of bounded geometry and uniform maps and the category of complex vector spaces and linear maps. As consequence we obtain that the, reduced or not, $L^{q,p}$-cohomology is a uniform homotopy invariant. Moreover these functors coincide with the pullback, when the pullback does induce a map between the reduced and unreduced $L^{q,p}$-cohomologies.

description: The Poynting effect generically manifests itself as the extension of the material in the direction perpendicular to an applied shear deformation (torsion) and is a material parameter hard to design. Unlike isotropic solids, in designed structures, peculiar couplings between shear and normal deformations can be achieved and exploited for practical applications. Here, we engineer a metamaterial that can be programmed to contract or extend under torsion and undergo nonlinear twist under compression. First, we show that our system exhibits a novel type of inverted Poynting effect, where axial compression induces a nonlinear torsion. Then the Poynting modulus of the structure is programmed from initial negative values to zero and positive values via a pre-compression applied prior to torsion. Our work opens avenues for programming nonlinear elastic moduli of materials and tuning the couplings between shear and normal responses by rational design. Obtaining inverted and programmable Poynting effects in metamaterials inspires diverse applications from designing machine materials, soft robots and actuators to engineering biological tissues, implants and prosthetic devices functioning under compression and torsion.

Role of Traditional Birth Attendants in Preventing HIV Transmission in Nigeria
Creators: name: Onyiapat, Jane-lovena Enuma
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: Abstract
Background: Nigeria is a country with the largest number of pediatric HIV infections in the world. Scholars who study mother-to-child HIV transmission in Nigeria have concluded that Nigeria’s failure to reduce mother-to-child HIV transmission can be explained in whole or in part by the fact that many Nigerian women use traditional birth attendants for their prenatal, intrapartum, and postpartum care which may not include prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission services. The study explored qualitatively the role(s), expectations, and future training needs of Nigerian traditional birth attendants in preventing mother-to-child HIV transmission (PMTCT)
Methods: We recruited and interviewed a convenience sample of 30 traditional birth attendants and 30 mothers from Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. Interviews were conducted in English and Ibibio (the local language) at a comfortable and neutral location and recorded with an audio device. The audio data was transcribed verbatim and subjected to qualitative content analysis.
Results: Traditional Birth Attendants play vital roles in maternal and child health and provide antenatal, delivery, and post-natal care to a relatively large number of women. Although traditional birth attendants have limited knowledge and skills to prevent HIV infection, they seem to have the potentials for promoting women’s use of PMTCT because some of them were able to provide HIV counselling and testing, linkage and treatment of HIV positive mothers, initiation of ART for HIV exposed infant, delivery, and infant care practices in the context of HIV prevention.
Conclusion: Adequate training, supervision, and support, task shifting of basic PMTCT services to TBAs may be useful in the fight against pediatirc HIV infection and will cushion the effect of health care provider shortages. Therefore, formal training, certification, and integration of traditional birth attendants into the health care system should be considered.
REALIZING INFORMATION ESCROWS AND EFFICIENT KEY-MANAGEMENT USING THRESHOLD CRYPTOGRAPHY
Creators: name: Mangipudi, Easwar V
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Cryptography

description: In this thesis, we address two applications of threshold cryptography — designing information escrows and key-distribution in cryptocurrency systems. We design escrow mechanisms in two-party and multi-party scenarios such that any unauthorized revelation of
 data results in the loss of cryptocurrency by the dishonest party. Later, we discuss user mental models in adopting cryptocurrency wallets and propose a protocol to efficiently provide cryptographic keys to the users in large-user systems. An information escrow refers to users storing their data at a custodian such that it can be revealed later. In the case of unauthorized leakage of this data by the custodian (receiver of data), taking legal actions is expensive, time consuming and also difficult owing to difficulty in establishing the responsibility. We address this by automatically penalizing the custodian through the loss of cryptocurrency in case of leakage. Initially, we consider a two party scenario where a sender forwards multimedia data to a receiver; we propose the Pepal protocol
 where any total or partial leakage of data penalizes the receiver. To avoid single point of failure at the receiver in a two-party system, we extend the protocol to a multi-party system where a group of agents offer the escrow as a service. However, this introduces a collusion scenario among the rational agents leading to premature and undetectable unlocking of the data. Addressing this, we propose a collusion-deterrent escrow (CDE) protocol where any collusion among the agents is penalized. We show that the provably secure protocol deters collusion in game-theoretic terms by dis-incentivising it among the rational agents. In the second part of this work, we investigate the mental models of cryptocurrency wallet users in choosing single-device or multi-device wallets along with their preferences. We investigate the user-preferred default (threshold) settings for the key distribution in the wallets. We then propose the D-KODE protocol, an efficient key-generation mechanism for
 cryptocurrency systems where either the payee or payer may not have the cryptographic setup but wish to transact. The protocol utilizes a practical black-box secret sharing scheme along with a distributed almost key-homomorphic PRF to achieve the threshold key distribution.

Economic inequality and preference for stock market speculation
Creators: name: Doan, Thi My Thuong
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This study investigates the relationship between economic inequality and speculative trading, specifically the trading of lottery-type stocks, in the stock market. The trading level of lottery-type stocks is examined, along with income inequality change, using Kumar’s (2009) method to identify lottery-type stocks. Data is used from the stock markets of Sweden, Finland, Italy, South Africa, the United States (US), the United Kingdom (UK), Portugal and China. The trading activity of speculative stocks is captured by the turnover ratio of lottery-type stocks. Income inequality is measured by both the Gini coefficient and the decile dispersion ratio (DDR). The study’s main finding is that the trading level of lottery-type stocks relative to that of all stocks decreases when the inequality level in a country increases. The result implies that, in scenarios where a high level of income inequality is present, less speculation is observed in the stock market. Using the Google search volume index (SVI) to measure how much attention given to a gambling category, stock market speculation is found to be negatively correlated with lotteries and other gambling categories. This finding supports previous literature on the relationship between gambling and the stock market activities.

The smallness assumptions on the topographic variation parameter used in [Communications on Pure & Applied Analysis, 2015, 14 (6): 2203-2230] and in [Asymptotic Analysis, vol. 106, no. 2, pp. 61-98, 2018] are now relaxed and the results of the aforementioned papers are improved and generalized to the complex case of large topography variation. Limiting the flow to one-layer, we also emphasize our model's well-posedness in comparison to the original asymptotic model.

description: Graphs are the natural framework of many of today’s highest impact computing applications: from online social networking, to Web search, to product recommendations, to chemistry, to bioinformatics, to knowledge bases, to mobile ad-hoc networking. To develop successful applications in these domains, we often need representation learning methods ---models mapping nodes, edges, subgraphs or entire graphs to some meaningful vector space. Such models are studied in the machine learning subfield of graph representation learning (GRL). Previous GRL research has focused on learning node or entire graph representations through associational tasks. In this work I study higher-order (k>1-node) representations of graphs in the context of both associational and counterfactual tasks.

On the choice of the collapse operator in cosmological Continuous Spontaneous Localisation (CSL) theories

description: The Continuous Spontaneous Localisation (CSL) theory in the cosmological context is subject to uncertainties related to the choice of the collapse operator. In this paper, we constrain its form based on generic arguments. We show that, if the collapse operator is even in the field variables, it is unable to induce the collapse of the wavefunction. Instead, if it is odd, we find that only linear operators are such that the outcomes are distributed according to Gaussian statistics, as required by measurements of the cosmic microwave background. We discuss implications of these results for previously proposed collapse operators. We conclude that the cosmological CSL collapse operator should be linear in the field variables.

description: This work presents an extension of graph-based SLAM methods to exploit the potential of 3D laser scans for loop detection. Every high-dimensional point cloud is replaced by a compact global descriptor, whereby a trained detector decides whether a loop exists. Searching for loops is performed locally in a variable space to consider the odometry drift. Since closing a wrong loop has fatal consequences, an extensive verification is performed before acceptance. The proposed algorithm is implemented as an extension of the widely used state-of-the-art library RTAB-Map, and several experiments show the improvement: During SLAM with a mobile service robot in changing indoor and outdoor campus environments, our approach improves RTAB-Map regarding total number of closed loops. Especially in the presence of significant environmental changes, which typically lead to failure, localization becomes possible by our extension. Experiments with a car in traffic (KITTI benchmark) show the general applicability of our approach. These results are comparable to the state-of-the-art LiDAR method LOAM. The developed ROS package is freely available.

description: We consider the problem of people search by a mobile social robot in case of a situation that cannot be solved by the robot alone. Examples are physically opening a closed door or operating an elevator. Based on the Behavior Tree framework, we create a modular and easily extendable action sequence with the goal of finding a person to assist the robot. By decomposing the Behavior Tree as a Discrete Time Markov Chain, we obtain an estimate of the probability and rate of success of the options for action, especially where the robot should wait or search for people.In a real-world experiment, the presented method is compared with other common approaches in a total of 588 test runs over the course of one week, starting at two different locations in a university building. We show our method to be superior to other approaches in terms of success rate and duration until a finding person and returning to the start location.

Relation Between High Strength reinforcing Bars and Maximum Allowable Strain in High Strength Concrete
Creators: name: Elferachi, Said
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: This thesis explores the use of ASTM A1035 Grade 100 (690 MPa) steel reinforcing bars with or without high-strength concrete (HSC) in short reinforced concrete (RC) columns. The study is driven by the potential of using high-strength steel (HSS) in the construction industry for the purpose of optimizing material weight and providing solutions to reinforcing bar congestion in RC columns. The study also aims to gain a better understanding of the behavior of RC columns reinforced with HSS bars with or without HSC in comparison to those that are reinforced with conventional steel bars (ASTM A615 Grade 60 (420 MPa) steel). First, a literature review on the behavior of HSC and HSS was conducted, also shedding light on important parameters influencing the behavior of short RC columns under compression. Then, the selection of appropriate stress-strain models for unconfined and confined concrete and for conventional and high strength steel was determined. Following, algorithms were developed using the programming language Python to analyze the behavior of HSC sections reinforced with HSS bars. Using the selected stress-strain models, sectional analyses were conducted to study whether increasing the maximum yield stress of reinforcing steel bars to 100,000 psi can be justified for unconfined or confined RC columns under the provisions of the ACI 318-19 code. The interaction between axial load and bending moment capacity was examined for RC columns with HSS and HSC. Moment-curvature analysis was conducted for sections with HSS to examine the effect of high-strength steel on curvature ductility. Finally, finite element analysis (FEA) was conducted with the concrete damage plasticity (CDP) model based to predict the test results of RC columns with HSS bars conducted by Wang et al. (2023).
