description: We prove that the spectrum of an individual chaotic quantum graph shows universal spectral correlations, as predicted by random--matrix theory. The stability of these correlations with regard to non--universal corrections is analyzed in terms of the linear operator governing the classical dynamics on the graph.

description: We report a multi-wavelength study of the massive ($M_{\star} \gtrsim 10^{11} \rm{M}_{\odot}$), $z\sim 2$ star-forming galaxy GMASS 0953, which hosts an obscured AGN. We combined near-infrared observations of the GNIRS, SINFONI and KMOS spectrographs to study the kinematics of the [O III]$λ5007$ and H$α$ emission lines. Our analysis shows that GMASS 0953 may host an ionized disc extending up to 13 kpc, which rotates at a velocity of $V_{\rm{ion}} = 203^{+17}_{-20} {\ \rm kms}^{-1}$ at the outermost radius. Evidence of rotation on a smaller scale ($R \sim 1$ kpc) arises from the CO(J=6-5) line. The central velocity $V_{\rm{CO}} = 320^{+ 92}_{-53} {\ \rm kms}^{-1}$ traced by the molecular gas is higher than $V_{\rm{ion}}$, suggesting that the galaxy harbors a multi-phase disc with a rotation curve that peaks in the very central regions. The galaxy appears well located on the $z = 0$ baryonic Tully-Fisher relation. We also discuss the possibility that the [O III]$λ5007$ and H$α$ velocity gradients are due to a galactic-scale wind. Besides, we found evidence of an AGN-driven outflow traced by a broad blueshifted wing affecting the [O III]$λ5007$ line, which presents a velocity offset $Δv = -535 \pm 152 {\ \rm kms}^{-1}$ from the systemic velocity. Because of the short depletion timescale ($τ_{\rm{dep}}\sim 10^8$ yr) due to gas ejection and gas consumption by star formation activity, GMASS 0953 may likely evolve into a passive galaxy. However, the role of the AGN in depleting the gas reservoir of the galaxy is quite unclear because of the uncertainties affecting the outflow rate.

description: This paper describes the {\it Chandra} observation of the diffuse emission in the face-on spiral NGC 6946. Overlaid on optical and H$α$ images, the diffuse emission follows the spiral structure of the galaxy. An overlay on a 6 cm polarized radio intensity map confirms the phase offset of the polarized emission. We then extract and fit the spectrum of the unresolved emission with several spectral models. All model fits show a consistent continuum thermal temperature with a mean value of 0.25$\pm$0.03 keV. Additional degrees of freedom are required to obtain a good fit and any of several models satisfy that need; one model uses a second continuum component with a temperature of 0.70$\pm$0.10 keV. An abundance measure of 3$^{+1.95}_{-1.90}$ for Si differs from the solar value at the 90% confidence level; the net diffuse spectrum shows the line lies above the instrumental Si feature. For Fe, the abundance measure of 0.67$\pm$0.13 is significant at 99%. Multiple gaussians also provide a good fit. Two of the fitted gaussians capture the O VII and O VIII emission; the fitted emission is consistent with an {\it XMM-Newton} RGS spectrum of diffuse gas in M81. The ratio of the two lines is $

description: The complete set of Eigenstates and Eigenvalues of the nearest neighbour tight binding model on a Cayley tree with branching number $b=2$ and $M$ branching generations with open boundary conditions is derived. We find that of the $N= 1 +3 (2^M-1)$ total states only $3 M +1$ states are extended throughout the Cayley tree. The remaining $N-(3 M+1)$ states are found to be strongly localised states with finite amplitudes on only a subset of sites. In particular, there are, for $M>1$, $3 \times 2^{M-2}$ surface states which are each antisymmetric combinations of only two sites on the surface of the Cayley tree and have energy eactly at $E=0$, the middle of the band. The ground state and the first two excited states of the Cayley tree are found to be extended states with amplitudes on all sites of the Cayley tree, for all $M$. We use the results on the complete set of Eigenstates and Eigenvalues to derive the total density of states and a local density of states.

description: Estimating the demand curve for farm irrigation water is a matter of serious concern in most of the Western States today and may be so in portions of the humid East in the near future. Farmers and other users have filed claims to all readily available streamflow, and private and public agencies have exhausted nearly all low-cost storage sites. Additional water can be made available only at much higher costs. If these higher costs are to be repaid, facilities must be designed to be utilized to their full capacity. Such designs must take into account the slope and position of the demand curve for irrigation water. The results presented here should be useful to project planners undertaking to determine the feasibility of proposed water projects. These results will also provide guides for allocating water supplies in multiple-use projects among various users, and they will help water agency managers to assess how proposed price schedules will affect income accounts for their farmer patrons. The authors wish to thank B. C. French, G. W. Dean, J. N. • oles, H. 0. Carter, and G. A. King for their comments and suggestions.

description: Four reasons why you might wish to read this paper: 1. We have devised a new statistical T test to determine differentially expressed genes (DEG) in the context of microarray experiments. This statistical test adds a new member to the traditional T-test family. 2. An exact formula for calculating the detection power of this T test is presented, which can also be fairly easily modified to cover the traditional T tests. 3. We have presented an accurate yet computationally very simple method to estimate the fraction of non-DEGs in a set of genes being tested. This method is superior to an existing one which is computationally much involved. 4. We approach the multiple testing problem from a fresh angle, and discuss its relation to the classical Bonferroni procedure and to the FDR (false discovery rate) approach. This is most useful in the analysis of microarray data, where typically several thousands of genes are being tested simultaneously.

description: The normal-state Hall effect and magnetoresisitance (MR) have been measured in the quasi-2D heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn_5. In the non-Fermi liquid region where the reistivity rho_xx exhibits an almost perfect T-linear dependence, the Hall angle varies as cot theta_H propto T^2 and the MR displays a strong violation of Kohler's rule. We demonstrate a novel relation between the MR and the Hall conductivity, Delta rho_xx/rho_xx propto (sigma_xy rho_xx)^2. These results bear a striking resemblance to the normal-state properties of high-T_c cuprates, indicating universal transport properties in the presence of quasi-2D antiferromagnetic fluctuations near a quantum critical point.

Boundary Value Exploration for Software Analysis

description: For software to be reliable and resilient, it is widely accepted that tests must be created and maintained alongside the software itself. One safeguard from vulnerabilities and failures in code is to ensure correct behavior on the boundaries between the input space sub-domains. So-called boundary value analysis (BVA) and boundary value testing (BVT) techniques aim to exercise those boundaries and increase test effectiveness. However, the concepts of BVA and BVT themselves are not generally well defined, and it is not clear how to identify relevant sub-domains, and thus the boundaries delineating them, given a specification. This has limited adoption and hindered automation. We clarify BVA and BVT and introduce Boundary Value Exploration (BVE) to describe techniques that support them by helping to detect and identify boundary inputs. Additionally, we propose two concrete BVE techniques based on information-theoretic distance functions: (i) an algorithm for boundary detection and (ii) the usage of software visualization to explore the behavior of the software under test and identify its boundary behavior. As an initial evaluation, we apply these techniques on a much used and well-tested date handling library. Our results reveal questionable behavior at boundaries highlighted by our techniques. In conclusion, we argue that the boundary value exploration that our techniques enable is a step towards automated boundary value analysis and testing, fostering their wider use and improving test effectiveness and efficiency.
Higgs Boson Flavor-Changing Neutral Decays into Bottom Quarks in Supersymmetry

description: We analyze the maximum branching ratios for the Flavor Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) decays of the neutral Higgs bosons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) into bottom quarks, h -> b\bar{s} (h=h^0,H^0,A^0). We consistently correlate these decays with the radiative B-meson decays (b-> sγ). A full-fledged combined numerical analysis is performed of these high-energy and low-energy FCNC decay modes in the MSSM parameter space. Our calculation shows that the available data on B(b->s γ) severely restricts the allowed values of B(h->b\bar{s}). While the latter could reach a few percent level in fine-tuned scenarios, the requirement of naturalness reduces these FCNC rates into the modest range B(h->b\bar{s}) ~ 10^{-4}-10^{-3}. We find that the bulk of the MSSM contribution to B(h->b\bar{s}) could originate from the strong supersymmetric sector. The maximum value of the FCNC rates obtained in this paper disagree significantly with recent (over-)estimates existing in the literature. Our results are still encouraging because they show that the FCNC modes h->b\bar{s} can be competitive with other Higgs boson signatures and could play a helpful complementary role to identify the supersymmetric Higgs bosons, particularly the lightest CP-even state in the critical LHC mass region m_{h^0} ~= 90-130 GeV.

description: The projected shell model is used to study the multi-quasiparticle and collective excitations of 178Hf. With an axially symmetric basis, the spin-16 isomer at 2.4 MeV appears to be well separated in energy/spin space from other configurations. However, projected energy surface calculations suggest that 178Hf has significant softness to axially asymmetric shapes, which can strongly modify the level distribution. The implications for photodeexitation of the isomer are discussed.

description: Kosmotropic cosolvents added to an aqueous solution promote the aggregation of hydrophobic solute particles, while chaotropic cosolvents act to destabilise such aggregates. We discuss the mechanism for these phenomena within an adapted version of the two-state Muller-Lee-Graziano model for water, which provides a complete description of the ternary water/cosolvent/solute system for small solute particles. This model contains the dominant effect of a kosmotropic substance, which is to enhance the formation of water structure. The consequent preferential exclusion both of cosolvent molecules from the solvation shell of hydrophobic particles and of these particles from the solution leads to a stabilisation of aggregates. By contrast, chaotropic substances disrupt the formation of water structure, are themselves preferentially excluded from the solution, and thereby contribute to solvation of hydrophobic particles. We use Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate at the molecular level the preferential exclusion or binding of cosolvent molecules in the solvation shell of hydrophobic particles, and the consequent enhancement or suppression of aggregate formation. We illustrate the influence of structure-changing cosolvents on effective hydrophobic interactions by modelling qualitatively the kosmotropic effect of sodium chloride and the chaotropic effect of urea.

description: Let $p$ be prime. We prove that, for $n$ odd, the $p$-torsion part of $π_q(S^{n})$ has cardinality at most $p^{2^{\frac{1}{p-1}(q-n+3-2p)}}$, and hence has rank at most $2^{\frac{1}{p-1}(q-n+3-2p)}$. For $p=2$ these results also hold for $n$ even. The best bounds proven in the existing literature are $p^{2^{q-n+1}}$ and $2^{q-n+1}$ respectively, both due to Hans-Werner Henn. The main point of our result is therefore that the bound grows more slowly for larger primes. As a corollary of work of Henn, we obtain a similar result for the homotopy groups of a broader class of spaces.

description: Chernoff (1971, Technical Report 71, Department of Statistics, Stanford University; 1973, Journal of the American Statistical Association 68: 361–368) proposed the use of cartoon-like faces to represent points in k dimensions. This article describes a Stata implementation of a face-generating algorithm using the method proposed by Flury (1980, Technical Report 3, Institute of Mathematical Statistics and Actuarial Science, Bern University), Schüpbach (1987, Technical Report 25, Institute of Mathematical Statistics and Acturial Science, Bern University), and Friendly (1991, http://www.math.yorku.ca/SCS/sasmac/faces.html). I present examples of applying Chernoff faces to data clustering and outlier detection.

description: Based on the operator formalism that arises from the underlying SU(2) group structure, a formula is derived that provides a description of the generalized Hermite-Laguerre Gauss modes in terms of a Jones vector, traditionally used to describe polarization. This identity highlights the relation between these generalized Gaussian beams, the elliptical ray families, and the Majorana constellations used to represent structured-Gaussian beams. Moreover, it provides a computational advantage over the standard formula in terms of Wigner $d$ functions.

description: Seafood processor preferences for hiring employees are explored in light of references, wages, and immigrant situations. The objectives of this study are to determine the relative importance of labor attributes, and to identify distinct clusters of processors in terms of preference for immigrant labor using conjoint analysis. Results from this study indicate that for seafood processors wage is the most important factor in hiring labor, and visa status is the least important factor when hiring seafood workers.

description: We propose improvements to existing degrees of freedom used for significance testing of multivariate hypotheses in small samples when missing data are handled using multiple imputation. The improvements are for 1) tests based on unrestricted fractions of missing information and 2) tests based on equal fractions of missing information with M(p−1) ≤ 4, where M is the number of imputations and p is the number of tested parameters. Using the mi command available as of Stata 11, we demonstrate via simulation that using these adjustments can result in a more sensible degrees of freedom (and hence closer-to-nominal rejection rates) than existing degrees of freedom.

Non-critical string, Liouville theory and geometric bootstrap hypothesis

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The applications of the existing Liouville theories for the description of the longitudinal dynamics of non-critical Nambu-Goto string are analyzed. We show that the recently developed DOZZ solution to the Liouville theory leads to the cut singularities in tree string amplitudes. We propose a new version of the Polyakov geometric approach to Liouville theory and formulate its basic consistency condition - the geometric bootstrap equation. Also in this approach the tree amplitudes develop cut singularieties.

description: Alpha Centauri A is the closest solar-type star to the Sun and offers an excellent opportunity to detect the thermal emission of a mature planet heated by its host star. The MIRI coronagraph on JWST can search the 1-3 AU (1"-2") region around alpha Cen A which is predicted to be stable within the alpha Cen AB system. We demonstrate that with reasonable performance of the telescope and instrument, a 20 hr program combining on-target and reference star observations at 15.5 um could detect thermal emission from planets as small as ~5 RE. Multiple visits every 3-6 months would increase the geometrical completeness, provide astrometric confirmation of detected sources, and push the radius limit down to ~3 RE. An exozodiacal cloud only a few times brighter than our own should also be detectable, although a sufficiently bright cloud might obscure any planet present in the system. While current precision radial velocity (PRV) observations set a limit of 50-100 ME at 1-3 AU for planets orbiting alpha Cen A, there is a broad range of exoplanet radii up to 10 RE consistent with these mass limits. A carefully planned observing sequence along with state-of-the-art post-processing analysis could reject the light from alpha Cen A at the level of ~10^-5 at 1"-2" and minimize the influence of alpha Cen B located 7-8" away in the 2022-2023 timeframe. These space-based observations would complement on-going imaging experiments at shorter wavelengths as well as PRV and astrometric experiments to detect planets dynamically. Planetary demographics suggest that the likelihood of directly imaging a planet whose mass and orbit are consistent with present PRV limits is small, ~5%, and possibly lower if the presence of a binary companion further reduces occurrence rates. However, at a distance of just 1.34 pc, alpha Cen A is our closest sibling star and certainly merits close scrutiny.

description: We present a minimum distance approach for conducting hypothesis testing in the presence of potentially weak instruments. Under this approach, we propose size-correct tests for limited dependent variable models with endogenous explanatory variables such as endogenous tobit and probit models. Additionally, we extend weak-instrument tests for the linear instrumental-variables model by allowing for variance–covariance estimation that is robust to arbitrary heteroskedasticity or intracluster dependence. We invert these tests to construct confidence intervals on the coefficient of the endogenous variable. We also provide a postestimation command for Stata, called rivtest, for computing the tests and estimating confidence intervals.

description: Runibia dallasi Rider, 1998
 Distribution: United States: TX. (Cuba, Jamaica)
 Comments: This species was listed in Froeschner (1988) under the preoccupied name Runibia proxima (Dallas); Rider (1998) proposed Runibia dallasi as a replacement name. The Texas record was reported by Snow (1906) from the Brownsville area. To our knowledge, no other published records exist (the Snow record was repeated by several others). The occurrence of this species in our fauna needs confirmation.

description: Agricultural producers have used futures markets to manage price risk, confident that 1) cash and futures prices move together over time, 2) cash and futures prices converge as the contract approaches expiration, and 3) funds held in margin accounts as a performance bond were secure in segregated accounts at the brokerage firm. However, recent price and basis volatility, coupled with the financial events surrounding MF Global and Peregrine may have shaken some growers’ perceptions of the risks of hedging with futures and options. In order to assess the degree to which these circumstances in the futures markets have impacted the risk management strategies of agricultural producers, we surveyed the 1,015 graduates of the Texas A&M AgriLife Master Marketer program. This group represents a sample of farmers and ranchers, merchandisers, and lenders with training and experience in using futures and options for hedging. Besides collecting information on their current risk management practices, we measured respondent views on the importance of key new sources of risk. On a 1 to 7 Likert scale with 1=disagree, 7=agree, and 4=neutral, respondents indicated some agreement (4.87) that futures price volatility and margins are a serious impediment to using futures and options. Respondents were neutral (4.06) on margin account security as a serious impediment to futures and options. The questions touched a nerve with some farmers, as noted in the comments.
Perturbative bosonization from two-point correlation functions

description: Here we address the problem of bosonizing massive fermions without making expansions in the fermion masses in both massive $QED_2$ and $QED_3$ with $ N $ fermion flavors including also a Thirring coupling. We start from two point correlators involving the U(1) fermionic current and the gauge field. From the tensor structure of those correlators we prove that the U(1) current must be identically conserved (topological) in the corresponding bosonized theory both in D=2 and D=3 dimensions. We find an effective generating functional in terms of bosonic fields which reproduces those two point correlators and from that we obtain a map of the Lagrangian density $\barψ^{r} (i \partial / - m)ψ^{r}$ into a bosonic one in both dimensions. This map is nonlocal but it is independent of the eletromagnetic and Thirring couplings, at least in the quadratic approximation for the fermionic determinant.
