description: This article is an extended version of the peer-reviewed publication; Moffat and Wang, J Phys Math 2018, 9:4 DOI: 10.4172/2090-0902.1000289 The article sets out to address a number of issues concerning Loop Quantum Gravity raised by Ashtekar, such as in a recent post to Arxiv.org (A Ashtekar Arxiv:gr-qc /0702030 v 2.0 May 2007). These include, for example, conditions for the existence of Poincare invariant quantum states. In doing so, this article provides a coherent mathematical framework for both the evolution of space-time and the supersymmetric graviton in the early universe. In this extended form, it is mnhopefully more accessible to research students at the advanced undergraduate level and beginning doctoral level. The key extensions are: a. An explicit cohomology based link between movement across a computational spin network and a dimensioned embedding of the network to produce equivalent movement along a discrete path in space-time; b). A discussion of the implications for quantum ergodic theory and black hole dynamics.

description: Social networks are the result of interactions between individuals at different temporal scales. Thus, sporadic intergroup encounters and individual forays play a central role in defining the dynamics of populations in social species. We assessed the rate of intergroup encounters for three western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) groups with daily observations over 5 years, and non-invasively genotyped a larger population over four months. Both approaches revealed a social system much more dynamic than anticipated, with non-aggressive intergroup encounters that involved social play by immature individuals, exchanges of members between groups likely modulated by kinship, and absence of infanticide evidenced by infants not fathered by the silverback of the group where they were found. This resulted in a community composed of groups that interacted frequently and non-aggressively, contrasting with the more fragmented and aggressive mountain gorilla (G. beringei beringei) societies. Such extended sociality can promote the sharing of behavioural and cultural traits, but might also increase the susceptibility of western lowland gorillas to infectious diseases that have decimated their populations in recent times.

description: We present an implementation of the adiabatic spin-wave dynamics of Niu and Kleinman. This technique allows to decouple the spin and charge excitations of a many-electron system using a generalization of the adiabatic approximation. The only input for the spin-wave equations of motion are the energies and Berry curvatures of many-electron states describing frozen spin spirals. The latter are computed using a newly developed technique based on constrained density-functional theory, within the local spin density approximation and the pseudo-potential plane-wave method. Calculations for iron show an excellent agreement with experiments.

description: The turbulent flow over monochromatic waves of moderate steepness is studied by means of wall resolved LES, and cover a range of wave ages and Reynolds numbers. We compute the Fourier modes of the flow and analyse the momentum balance for the mean and fundamental mode. At low wave ages, the form drag displays a large sensitivity to changes in Reynolds number, and the interaction between turbulent and wave-induced stresses increases with Reynolds number. At higher wave ages, a quasi-laminar regime is entered, where the wave-induced stress is primarily balanced by viscous stresses. To exploit the increasing importance of the wave kinematics observed in the intermediate to high wave age regime, a novel split system approach is introduced, where a laminar response to the wave forces a turbulent RANS type of shear flow . To account for the effects of turbulence, we force the system using Reynolds stresses from the corresponding LES. We give an analytic functional dependence for the form drag associated with the laminar solution. For intermediate to high wave ages, the form drag of the shear flow exhibits relatively simple behaviour, and we derive approximate functional dependencies for the quasi-laminar regime. The high sensitivity of the form drag to variation in Reynolds number at low wave ages is more challenging to evaluate using this approach. This is primarily due to the increased importance of nonlinearity in the shear flow, which are inherently coupled with higher harmonics in the turbulent stresses. Nevertheless, the split system approach can be utilized to quantify the importance of different harmonics in the turbulent stresses by explicitly choosing which modes to include in the split system forcing. We demonstrate that the fundamental mode of the Reynolds stresses becomes increasingly important for accurate prediction of the form drag as the Reynolds number increases.

description: The necklace braid group $\mathcal{NB}_n$ is the motion group of the $n+1$ component necklace link $\mathcal{L}_n$ in Euclidean $\mathbb{R}^3$. Here $\mathcal{L}_n$ consists of $n$ pairwise unlinked Euclidean circles each linked to an auxiliary circle. Partially motivated by physical considerations, we study representations of the necklace braid group $\mathcal{NB}_n$, especially those obtained as extensions of representations of the braid group $\mathcal{B}_n$ and the loop braid group $\mathcal{LB}_n$. We show that any irreducible $\mathcal{B}_n$ representation extends to $\mathcal{NB}_n$ in a standard way. We also find some non-standard extensions of several well-known $\mathcal{B}_n$-representations such as the Burau and LKB representations. Moreover, we prove that any local representation of $\mathcal{B}_n$ (i.e. coming from a braided vector space) can be extended to $\mathcal{NB}_n$, in contrast to the situation with $\mathcal{LB}_n$. We also discuss some directions for future study from categorical and physical perspectives.

description: This dissertation describes how faculty use their agency to make meaningful decisions in their careers within the context of internationalization. The author uses a faculty agency framework that positions internationalization as a sociocultural structure that influences faculty members’ identities and the organizational contexts in which they work, shaping how they use strategic actions and perspectives to navigate their daily work lives and career goals. The study uses a private university in Pakistan as a case study, with document analysis, interviews, and teaching observations as the primary data collection methods. The author finds faculty members’ agency behaviors can be organized into three interrelated and overlapping categories in response to internationalization: localized behaviors, aspiring behaviors, and internationalized behaviors. Each of these agency responses impact faculty members’ teaching and research responsibilities separately. Findings from this research can be used to understand how to uncover and contextualize faculty members agency within larger global social forces and help administrators and others provide better support to faculty within the context of organizational goals.

description: Carotid atherosclerosis is an arterial disease caused by the accumulation of plaque inside the walls of the carotid artery, a major artery that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the brain. The buildup of plaque inside the artery wall leads to narrowing, or stenosis, which could reduce blood flow to the brain. Rupture of atherosclerotic plaque and resulting embolization places the patient at an increased risk of stroke. Determining plaque composition can help determine which patients are at higher risk of having a stroke. High risk plaques have been shown to have a thin fibrous cap and a lipid rich necrotic core [22]. One method to determine the composition of the plaque is to measure the amount of strain, and hence, deformation that the plaque endures during a cardiac cycle. Large deformation of plaque are indicative of softer lipid-rich necrotic tissues whereas minimal deformation tend to indicate harder, mostly calcified or fibrotic tissues. Under the strain of repeated cardiac cycles (heartbeats), plaques may rupture, and small pieces of fibrofatty emboli or blood clots (thrombi) may separate from the plaque and lodge themselves in smaller arteries in the brain leading to a stroke. Ultrasound imaging is a non-invasive, widely available medical tool that has become an attractive imaging modality for initial evaluation of carotid artery stenosis. In previous research [1], images from ultrasound videos of thirteen patients diagnosed with carotid stenosis were processed to measure the amount of deformation of the plaque from one ultrasound image to the next using an algorithm called ‘optical flow’. In each image, the carotid plaque was manually segmented before applying the optical flow. In this thesis, we demonstrate that only the first image of each video needs to be segmented and that fitting a bounding box around the area of interest and propagating that bounding box to the rest of the images produce similar results, which greatly reduces the need for tedious manual segmentation. After applying the optical flow algorithm to the area within the bounding box, a clustering algorithm is applied to classify the patients into two distinct groups: (1) a low-risk group where there is minimal deformation of the plaque tissues (less strain) and, (2) a high-risk group where there is large deformation of the plaque tissues (more strain). These classifications of the elasticity of the carotid plaque provide an invaluable initial step to assess which patients might benefit from further diagnosis to better assess the risk of embolization.

description: Entanglement distillation is a key primitive for distributing high-quality entanglement between remote locations. Probabilistic noiseless linear amplification based on the quantum scissors is a candidate for entanglement distillation from noisy continuous-variable (CV) entangled states. Being a non-Gaussian operation, quantum scissors is challenging to analyze. We present a derivation of the non-Gaussian state heralded by multiple quantum scissors in a pure loss channel with two-mode squeezed vacuum input. We choose the reverse coherent information (RCI)---a proven lower bound on the distillable entanglement of a quantum state under one-way local operations and classical communication (LOCC), as our figure of merit. We evaluate a Gaussian lower bound on the RCI of the heralded state. We show that it can exceed the unlimited two-way LOCCassisted direct transmission entanglement distillation capacity of the pure loss channel. The optimal heralded Gaussian RCI with two quantum scissors is found to be significantly more than that with a single quantum scissors, albeit at the cost of decreased success probability. Our results fortify the possibility of a quantum repeater scheme for CV quantum states using the quantum scissors.

description: An effective low-energy description for multi-leg spin-1/2 Heisenberg ladders with an odd number of legs is proposed. Using a newly developed Monte Carlo loop algorithm and exact diagonalization techniques, the uniform and staggered magnetic susceptibility and the entropy are calculated for ladders with 1, 3, and 5 legs. These systems show a low-temperature scaling behavior similar to spin-1/2 chains with longer ranged unfrustrated exchange interactions. The spinon velocity does not change as the number of legs increases, but the energy scale parameter decreases markedly.

description: Abstract: In recent years, Machine Learning (ML) components have been increasingly integrated into the core systems of organizations across diverse sectors, including e-commerce, healthcare, and finance. Engineering such systems presents various challenges from both a theoretical and practical perspective. One of the key challenges is the effective interaction between actors with different backgrounds who need to work closely together, such as software engineers and data scientists. In this paper, we present an exploratory case study that aims to understand the current interaction and collaboration dynamics between these two roles in ML projects. We conducted semi-structured interviews with four practitioners with experience in software engineering and data science of a large ML-enabled system project and analyzed the data using reflexive thematic analysis. Our findings reveal several challenges that can hinder collaboration between software engineers and data scientists, including differences in technical expertise, unclear definitions of each role's duties, and the lack of documents that support the specification of the ML-enabled system. We also indicate potential solutions to address these challenges, such as fostering a collaborative culture, encouraging team communication, and producing concise system documentation. This study contributes to understanding the complex dynamics between software engineers and data scientists in ML projects and provides insights for improving collaboration and communication in this context. We encourage future studies investigating this interaction in other projects.

description: We describe tests validating progress made toward acceleration and automation of hydrodynamic codes in the regime of developed turbulence by three Deep Learning (DL) Neural Network (NN) schemes trained on Direct Numerical Simulations of turbulence. Even the bare DL solutions, which do not take into account any physics of turbulence explicitly, are impressively good overall when it comes to qualitative description of important features of turbulence. However, the early tests have also uncovered some caveats of the DL approaches. We observe that the static DL scheme, implementing Convolutional GAN and trained on spatial snapshots of turbulence, fails to reproduce intermittency of turbulent fluctuations at small scales and details of the turbulence geometry at large scales. We show that the dynamic NN schemes, namely LAT-NET and Compressed Convolutional LSTM, trained on a temporal sequence of turbulence snapshots are capable to correct for the caveats of the static NN. We suggest a path forward towards improving reproducibility of the large-scale geometry of turbulence with NN.

description: Let $P(G,q)$ be the chromatic polynomial for coloring the $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $q$ colors, and define $W=\lim_{n \to \infty}P(G,q)^{1/n}$. Besides their mathematical interest, these functions are important in statistical physics. We give a comparative discussion of exact calculations of $P$ and $W$ for a variety of recursive families of graphs, including strips of regular lattices with various boundary conditions and homeomorphic expansions thereof. Generalizing to $q \in {\mathbb C}$, we determine the accumulation sets of the chromatic zeros constituting the continuous loci of points on which $W$ is nonanalytic. Various families of graphs with the property that the chromatic zeros and/or their accumulation sets (i) include support for $Re(q) < 0$; (ii) bound regions and pass through $q=0$; and (iii) are noncompact are discussed, and the role of boundary conditions is analyzed. Some corresponding results are presented for Potts model partition functions for nonzero temperature, equivalent to the full Tutte polynomials for various families of graphs.

description: We study homogenization for a class of generalized Langevin equations (GLEs) with state-dependent coefficients and exhibiting multiple time scales. In addition to the small mass limit, we focus on homogenization limits, which involve taking to zero the inertial time scale and, possibly, some of the memory time scales and noise correlation time scales. The latter are meaningful limits for a class of GLEs modeling anomalous diffusion. We find that, in general, the limiting stochastic differential equations (SDEs) for the slow degrees of freedom contain non-trivial drift correction terms and are driven by non-Markov noise processes. These results follow from a general homogenization theorem stated and proven here. We illustrate them using stochastic models of particle diffusion.

description: Trust and Reputation Assessment of service providers in citizen-focused environments like e-commerce is vital to maintain the integrity of the interactions among agents. The goals and objectives of both the service provider and service consumer agents are relevant to the goals of the respective citizens (end users). The provider agents often pursue selfish goals that can make the service quality highly volatile, contributing towards the non-stationary nature of the environment. The number of active service providers tends to change over time resulting in an open environment. This necessitates a rapid and continual assessment of the Trust and Reputation. A large number of service providers in the environment require a distributed multi-agent Trust and Reputation assessment. This paper addresses the problem of multi-agent Trust and Reputation Assessment in a non-stationary environment involving transactions between providers and consumers. In this setting, the observer agents carry out the assessment and communicate their assessed trust scores with each other over a network. We propose a novel Distributed Online Life-Long Learning (DOL3) algorithm that involves real-time rapid learning of trust and reputation scores of providers. Each observer carries out an adaptive learning and weighted fusion process combining their own assessment along with that of their neighbour in the communication network. Simulation studies reveal that the state-of-the-art methods, which usually involve training a model to assess an agent's trust and reputation, do not work well in such an environment. The simulation results show that the proposed DOL3 algorithm outperforms these methods and effectively handles the volatility in such environments. From the statistical evaluation, it is evident that DOL3 performs better compared to other models in 90% of the cases.

description: We present a unified description of the resonance peak and low-energy incommensurate response observed in high-$T_c$ cuprate superconductors. We argue that both features have a purely magnetic origin and they represent universal features of an incommensurate spin state both below and above the superconducting transition temperature. In this description the resonance peak is the reflection of commensurate antiferromagnetism. Our theoretical scenario gives an account of the main features observed in various families of superconductors and predicts those not yet observed, like a resonance peak in La$_2$NiO$_{4+x}$.

description: The aim of the study was to investigate if dietary alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) supplementation may improve the performance of lactating sows and their suckling piglets. After farrowing, 24 lactating sows (Large White × Landrace) with similar body weight (BW) were assigned to the control and AKG groups based on parity, and their lactation diets were supplemented with 0.00 or 0.25% AKG, respectively. It was found that supplementing the diet of lactating sows with 0.25% AKG enhanced growth performance of the suckling piglets from d 7 to d 21 of the lactation period, improved villus height of ileum and tended (p = 0.085) to increase mean volumetric bone mineral density of femur in the weanling piglets. In the lactating sows, dietary supplementation of AKG decreased plasma urea level on d 14 of lactation, decreased plasma calcium (Ca) concentrations from d 7 to d 21 of lactation and increased lactose and Ca levels in ordinary milk. Thus, it was proposed that AKG supplementation stimulates the capacity for lactose synthesis and Ca uptake in the mammary gland, thereby altering the composition of the ordinary milk which might be associated with the enhanced performance of piglets during the suckling period. These findings could lead to a better application of AKG in lactating nutrition, and therefore, promoting pork production.
Observation of electroweak $W^{\pm}Z$ boson pair production in association with two jets in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

description: An observation of electroweak $W^{\pm}Z$ production in association with two jets in proton-proton collisions is presented. The data collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016 at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV are used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$. Events containing three identified leptons, either electrons or muons, and two jets are selected. The electroweak production of $W^{\pm}Z$ bosons in association with two jets is measured with an observed significance of 5.3 standard deviations. A fiducial cross-section for electroweak production including interference effects is measured to be $σ_{WZjj\mathrm{-EW}} = 0.57 \; ^{+ 0.14} _{- 0.13} \,(\mathrm{stat.}) \; ^{+ 0.07} _{- 0.06} \,(\mathrm{syst.}) \; \mathrm{fb}$. Total and differential fiducial cross-sections of the sum of $W^\pm Z jj$ electroweak and strong productions for several kinematic observables are also measured.

description: A quantum vortex dipole, comprised of a closely bound pair of vortices of equal strength with opposite circulation, is a spatially localized travelling excitation of a planar superfluid that carries linear momentum, suggesting a possible analogy with ray optics. We investigate numerically and analytically the motion of a quantum vortex dipole incident upon a step-change in the background superfluid density of an otherwise uniform two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate. Due to the conservation of fluid momentum and energy, the incident and refracted angles of the dipole satisfy a relation analogous to Snell's law, when crossing the interface between regions of different density. The predictions of the analogue Snell's law relation are confirmed for a wide range of incident angles by systematic numerical simulations of the Gross-Piteavskii equation. Near the critical angle for total internal reflection, we identify a regime of anomalous Snell's law behaviour where the finite size of the dipole causes transient capture by the interface. Remarkably, despite the extra complexity of the surface interaction, the incoming and outgoing dipole paths obey Snell's law.

description: Protostane-type triterpenoids are antifibrotic nature components with unique structures in Alismatis Rhizoma. However, the underlying mechanisms of them against liver fibrosis are not well illustrated. The present study aims to study the targets and mechanisms of Alismatis Rhizoma triterpenes responsible for their antifibrotic effects by network pharmacology, molecular docking, and luciferase assay. As a result, six molecular targets responsible for the antifibrotic effects of alisols against liver fibrosis were uncovered by network pharmacology, among which the activation of farnesoid X receptor (FXR/NR1H4) was highlighted and further confirmed by molecular docking and luciferase assay. Our present study provides a scientific basis for treating liver fibrosis by using Alismatis Rhizoma, especially via the FXR activation effects of alisols.

description: In this Letter, we present results of an extensive Monte Carlo study of the O/W(110) system under non-equilibrium conditions. We study the mean square displacements and long wavelength density fluctuations of adatoms. From these quantities, we define effective and time-dependent values for the collective and tracer diffusion mobilities. These mobilities reduce to the usual diffusion constants when equilibrium is reached. We discuss our results in view of existing experimental measurements of effective diffusion barriers, and the difficulties associated with interpreting non-equilibrium data.

Hyperuniformity Order Metric of Barlow Packings

description: The concept of hyperuniformity has been a useful tool in the study of large-scale density fluctuations in systems ranging across the natural and mathematical sciences. One can rank a large class of hyperuniform systems by their ability to suppress long-range density fluctuations through the use of a hyperuniformity order metric $\barΛ$. We apply this order metric to the Barlow packings, which are the infinitely degenerate densest packings of identical rigid spheres that are distinguished by their stacking geometries and include the commonly known fcc lattice and hcp crystal. The "stealthy stacking" theorem implies that these packings are all stealthy hyperuniform, a strong type of hyperuniformity which involves the suppression of scattering up to a wavevector $K$. We describe the geometry of three classes of Barlow packings, two disordered classes and small-period packings. In addition, we compute a lower bound on $K$ for all Barlow packings. We compute $\barΛ$ for the aforementioned three classes of Barlow packings and find that to a very good approximation, it is linear in the fraction of fcc-like clusters, taking values between those of least-ordered hcp and most-ordered fcc. This implies that the $\barΛ$ of all Barlow packings is primarily controlled by the local cluster geometry. These results indicate the special nature of anisotropic stacking disorder, which provides impetus for future research on the development of anisotropic order metrics and hyperuniformity properties.
