description: A quantum sensor (QS) is able to measure various physical phenomena with extreme sensitivity. QSs have been used in several applications such as atomic interferometers, but few applications of a quantum sensor network (QSN) have been proposed or developed. We look at a natural application of QSN -- localization of an event (in particular, of a wireless signal transmitter). In this paper, we develop effective quantum-based techniques for the localization of a transmitter using a QSN. Our approaches pose the localization problem as a well-studied quantum state discrimination (QSD) problem and address the challenges in its application to the localization problem. In particular, a quantum state discrimination solution can suffer from a high probability of error, especially when the number of states (i.e., the number of potential transmitter locations in our case) can be high. We address this challenge by developing a two-level localization approach, which localizes the transmitter at a coarser granularity in the first level, and then, in a finer granularity in the second level. We address the additional challenge of the impracticality of general measurements by developing new schemes that replace the QSD's measurement operator with a trained parameterized hybrid quantum-classical circuit. Our evaluation results using a custom-built simulator show that our best scheme is able to achieve meter-level (1-5m) localization accuracy; in the case of discrete locations, it achieves near-perfect (99-100\%) classification accuracy.

description: We prove a sandwiching lemma for inner-exact locally compact Hausdorff étale groupoids. Our lemma says that every ideal of the reduced $C^*$-algebra of such a groupoid is sandwiched between the ideals associated to two uniquely defined open invariant subsets of the unit space. We obtain a bijection between ideals of the reduced $C^*$-algebra, and triples consisting of two nested open invariant sets and an ideal in the $C^*$-algebra of the subquotient they determine that has trivial intersection with the diagonal subalgebra and full support. We then introduce a generalisation to groupoids of Ara and Lolk's relative strong topological freeness condition for partial actions, and prove that the reduced $C^*$-algebras of inner-exact locally compact Hausdorff étale groupoids satisfying this condition admit an obstruction ideal in Ara and Lolk's sense.

Sociogeomorphic evolution of an Australian upland river: a physical-and-social basis for rehabilitation
Creators: name: Mould, Simon
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

description: In many Australian river management settings there is a need to broaden and deepen participation and knowledge integration, particularly between physical and social sciences and with indigenous knowledges. Recent developments in geomorphological thinking that promote place based and reflexive practice in studying emergent landscapes may provide a basis for connecting geomorphology with diverse ways of knowing. In this thesis a sociogeomorphological view of a chain of ponds river system provides a social-and-physical historical context for river management, revealing physical and social constraints on achievement of sustainable river management. Recognising the need for more appropriate engagement with indigenous voices, this thesis established the beginnings of cross-cultural dialogue using ethnogeomorpholoical principles in a reconfiguration of relationships between people and between people and place. By remaking these relationships, the river was re-made for research participants and the researcher in a way that constitutes river rehabilitation in its own right. This conceptualisation of river rehabilitation as concerning physical-and social relationships has implications for recognition of the political work of geomorphology, alongside other ways of knowing, in achieveing sustainable river management.

description: Within weeks of the nation-wide COVID-19 shutdown, more than 200 regional and community newspapers across Australia announced they could no longer keep their presses running due to the unprecedented crisis. A drain in advertising spend, a broken business model and the refusal of digital behemoths to pay for content were blamed for their collapse, ironically as audiences’ demand for credible news and information soared across the globe. There is no doubt the COVID-19 crisis has widened existing, deep cracks in the news media industry. In response this article sets out to explore possible solutions and strategies for local newspapers in the post-pandemic media landscape. We take an analogical approach to argue some of the issues that emerged during COVID-19 and strategies used to fight the global health pandemic also present valuable lessons for the preservation of public interest journalism and news at the local level. We conceptualise five coronavirus-related themes that resonate with a much-needed innovations agenda for local newspapers in Australia: (1) support for essential services, (2) warnings of complacency against an evolving biological threat, (3) appreciating the power of the social (4) coordinated government/policy responses and (5) ‘we are all in this together’.
Business excellence models as sources of benchmarking and improvement

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: There has always been a significant debate about management models and systems in the literature. This thesis focuses on Business Excellence (BE) models, and their impact on the process maturity and performance. Through a case-study and a survey in UK firms, this study shows that utilising and commitment to BE models is significantly related to process maturity and financial performance. Not only BE-active firms were in a better situation than non-BE-active firms, but also within the BE-active companies, those who showed a higher level of commitment, were higher in their process maturity and financial performance. This is a thesis by publication presenting several contributions to the existing knowledge. The literature review has resulted in a conceptual paper including the first comprehensive scientific excellence model. Following the literature review, a case-study is presented in the second paper proposing a new process orientation methodology, namely the ‘Business Process Rearrangement and Renaming (BPR2)’ boosted by BE. The power of names which has been so far neglected in management literature, has been utilised in BPR2. Instead of destroying the organisational structure and rebuilding it, BPR2 suggests giving each of the existing departments ‘a new identity and responsibility’ to provide specific products/services for the internal/external customers. A survey has been conducted on the impacts of commitment to BE which resulted in proposition of the new ‘Organized Commitment Model’ presented in the third paper. This model provides a platform for top managers who want to establish commitment on highly important issues such as organisational values, strategies, customer relationship, and so on. The Model can be also used by academics who want to measure the impact of commitment to an issue such as commitment to strategies on another variable such as performance. ‘Aiming for Excellence’ is the central focus in the whole thesis. Although people present different definitions about excellence, overall understanding of people about this concept is very similar. Hence, ‘Aiming for Excellence’ can provide a shared vision that brings people together in difficult circumstances.
SWIFT Detection of a 65-Day X-ray Period from the Ultraluminous Pulsar NGC 7793 P13

description: NGC 7793 P13 is an ultraluminous X-ray source harboring an accreting pulsar. We report on the detection of a ~65 d period X-ray modulation with Swift observations in this system. The modulation period found in the X-ray band is P=65.05+/-0.10 d and the profile is asymmetric with a fast rise and a slower decay. On the other hand, the u-band light curve collected by Swift UVOT confirmed an optical modulation with a period of P=64.24+/-0.13 d. We explored the phase evolution of the X-ray and optical periodicities and propose two solutions. A superorbital modulation with a period of ~2,700-4,700 d probably caused by the precession of a warped accretion disk is necessary to interpret the phase drift of the optical data. We further discuss the implication if this ~65d periodicity is caused by the superorbital modulation. Estimated from the relationship between the spin-orbital and orbital-superorbital periods of known disk-fed high-mass X-ray binaries, the orbital period of P13 is roughly estimated as 3-7 d. In this case, an unknown mechanism with a much longer time scale is needed to interpret the phase drift. Further studies on the stability of these two periodicities with a long-term monitoring could help us to probe their physical origins.

description: We show that a generalisation of Brand-Dicke (BD) theory can provide a theoretical basis for dark energy at early times. This generalisation is based on introducing a potential for the BD scalar and allowing of the latter to interact with radiation in the radiation-dominated rea. We argue that the model we take up provides a strong theoretical basis for early dark energy (EDE) so that the scalar field can mimic a cosmological constant and quintessence behaviors under slow-roll and non-slow-roll conditions, respectively.

description: The large-scale matter distribution in the late-time Universe exhibits gravity-induced non-Gaussianity, and the bispectrum, three-point cumulant is expected to contain significant cosmological information. In particular, the measurement of the bispectrum helps to tighten the constraints on dark energy and modified gravity through the redshift-space distortions (RSD). In this paper, extending the work by Taruya, Nishimichi & Saito (2010, Phys.Rev.D 82, 063522), we present a perturbation theory (PT) based model of redshift-space matter bispectrum that can keep the non-perturbative damping effect under control. Characterizing this non-perturbative damping by a univariate function with single free parameter, the PT model of the redshift-space bispectrum is tested against a large set of cosmological $N$-body simulations, finding that the predicted monopole and quadrupole moments are in a good agreement with simulations at the scales of baryon acoustic oscillations (well beyond the range of agreement of standard PT). The validity of the univariate ansatz of the damping effect is also examined, and with the PT calculation at next-to-leading order, the fitted values of the free parameter is shown to consistently match those obtained from the PT model of power spectrum by Taruya, Nishimichi & Saito (2010).

Creators: name: Tubbs, M. O.
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

description: On the 9th December 1970 a new criminal statute was assented to and became law. This new Act was said "to make provisions with respect to certain offences to be made punishable in a summary manner." As a logical corollary of the Act's preamble, the name given to this new statute (the short title) was the Summary Offences Act, 1970 (hereafter referred to as the Act). The preamble further stated its intention "to repeal the Vagrancy Act 1902 and certain provisions of the Police Offences Act 1901." The Act is divided into four parts, namely: Preliminary; Offences; Powers of Police; and General. Part II of the Act is further divided into seven divisions: Offences relating to public places; Vagrancy and similar offences; Prostitution; Betting; Frauds, unlawful possession, etc; Public Assemblies; and Other offences. While the long title of the Act may give the impression that certain criminal offences such as vagrancy, were being repealed, the reality was different as the promulgation of the Act did not result in a single previously enacted offence being abolished. On the contrary, rather than decriminalising any social activity or behaviour, the Act dramatically increased the number of possible acts to which criminal sanctions could be attached. The Act also had the effect of bringing together what might be called offences against perceived concepts of public order under a single criminal statute and to conjointly widen police powers for maintaining such public order. The passing into law of the Act introduced what were in essence a number of new offences, such as criminal trespass, unseemly words, demonstrating without permission. At the same time it re-enacted many traditional offences such as vagrancy, prostitution, consorting etc. There were thirty eight offences listed in the provisions of the Act, however, because of the wide definitions and the ambiguity of some of the provisions, it is impossible to state the number of possible acts of behaviour which could constitute an offence under the provisions of the Act. To say its reach was extreme would be almost to understate the wide-ranging nature of the Act's powers of control.

description: The search for new materials for energy-efficient electronic devices has gained unprecedented importance. Among the various classes of magnetic materials driving this search are antiferromagnets, magnetoelectrics, and systems with topological spin excitations. Cu$_3$TeO$_6$ is a material that belongs to all three of these classes. Combining static electric polarization and magnetic torque measurements with phenomenological simulations we demonstrate that magnetic-field-induced spin reorientation needs to be taken into account to understand the linear magnetoelectric (ME) effect in Cu$_3$TeO$_6$. Our calculations reveal that the magnetic field pushes the system from the nonpolar ground state to the polar magnetic structures. However, nonpolar structures only weakly differing from the obtained polar ones exist due to the weak effect that the field-induced breaking of some symmetries has on the calculated structures. Among those symmetries is the $PT$ ($\overline{1}'$) symmetry, preserved for Dirac points found in Cu$_3$TeO$_6$. Our findings establish Cu$_3$TeO$_6$ as a promising playground to study the interplay of spintronics-related phenomena.

description: In this paper we study the problem of increasing the decoding success probability of random linear fountain code over GF(2) for small packet lengths used in delay-intolerant applications such as multimedia streaming. Such code over GF(2) are attractive as they have lower decoding complexity than codes over larger field size, but suffer from high transmission redundancy. In our proposed coding scheme we construct a codeword which is not a linear combination of any codewords previously transmitted to mitigate such transmission redundancy. We then note the observation that the probability of receiving a linearly dependent codeword is highest when the receiver has received k-1 linearly independent codewords. We propose using the BlockACK frame so that the codeword received after k-1 linearly independent codeword is always linearly independent, this reduces the expected redundancy by a factor of three.

Since the group that acts on the Galois closure also acts on the Jacobian variety of the covering surface, we describe its group algebra decomposition in terms of the Jacobian and Prym varieties of the intermediate coverings of the Galois closure. The dimension and induced polarization of each abelian variety in the decomposition is computed in terms of the ramification data of the covering map.

description: Collision-resistant hashing, a fundamental primitive in modern cryptography, ensures that there is no efficient way to find distinct inputs that produce the same hash value. This property underpins the security of various cryptographic applications, making it crucial to understand its complexity. The complexity of this problem is well-understood in the classical setting and $Θ(N^{1/2})$ queries are needed to find a collision. However, the advent of quantum computing has introduced new challenges since quantum adversaries $\unicode{x2013}$ equipped with the power of quantum queries $\unicode{x2013}$ can find collisions much more efficiently. Brassard, Höyer and Tapp and Aaronson and Shi established that full-scale quantum adversaries require $Θ(N^{1/3})$ queries to find a collision, prompting a need for longer hash outputs, which impacts efficiency in terms of the key lengths needed for security.
 This paper explores the implications of quantum attacks in the Noisy-Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) era. In this work, we investigate three different models for NISQ algorithms and achieve tight bounds for all of them:
 (1) A hybrid algorithm making adaptive quantum or classical queries but with a limited quantum query budget, or
 (2) A quantum algorithm with access to a noisy oracle, subject to a dephasing or depolarizing channel, or
 (3) A hybrid algorithm with an upper bound on its maximum quantum depth; i.e., a classical algorithm aided by low-depth quantum circuits.
 In fact, our results handle all regimes between NISQ and full-scale quantum computers. Previously, only results for the pre-image search problem were known for these models by Sun and Zheng, Rosmanis, Chen, Cotler, Huang and Li while nothing was known about the collision finding problem.

We study in detail the simplest Starobinsky supergravity model in the "old-minimal" supergravity setup and find examples of violations of each energy condition for a certain range of the parameters due to extra scalar d.o.f. present in supergravity. We find the null and weak energy conditions to be preserved and the strong energy condition to be violated in the physically relevant examples such as inflation and dark energy.

description: In the study of immersed surfaces of constant positive extrinsic curvature in space-forms, it is natural to substitute completeness for a weaker property, which we here call quasicompleteness. We determine the global geometry of such surfaces under the hypotheses of quasicompleteness. In particular, we show that, for $k>\text{Max}(0,-c)$, the only quasicomplete immersed surfaces of constant extrinsic curvature equal to $k$ in the $3$-dimensional space-form of constant sectional curvature equal to $c$ are the geodesic spheres. Together with earlier work of the author, this completes the classification of quasicomplete immersed surfaces of constant positive extrinsic curvature in $3$-dimensional space-forms.

Cultural identity and mathematics learning of Chinese families living in Australia

Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Research studies on migration and education often see Chinese families as homogeneous and Chinese identity as fixed and stable. This view on homogeneity dismisses the growing complexity of cultural identities of Chinese people living overseas in this era when migrants have frequent and multiple connections with more than one social world. Expectations of homogeneity also produce stereotypes that misrepresent who Chinese people are. Stereotypes of Chinese families often portray parents as demanding and authoritative, who have high expectations on their children who are disciplined, diligent and good at mathematics. The last stereotype is supposedly confirmed by media reports of Asian students’ performance in international mathematics assessments such as TIMSS and PISA. Adopting a narrative approach, this ethnographic study conducted by a researcher with a Chinese cultural heritage explored the cultural identities of Chinese families living in Australian [sic] and how they might impact on their children’s mathematics learning. The notion of Chineseness in the diasporic context was interrogated and the impact of transnationalism on Chinese families’ belonging to both their homeland and Australia were also examined. Results showed that participating families have considerably different ties with both their homelands and Australia. Their identities as seen in how they relate to the people and practices in both places did not have much impact on their children’s mathematics learning. It was found that parents valued education and perceived mathematics more broadly as a subject to prepare their children for a better future. The extra help offered by parents or private tutoring was seen to provide the support their children need to achieve in mathematics.

description: The self-assembly mechanism of one-end-open carbon nanotubes (CNTs) suspended in an aqueous solution was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. It was shown that two one-end-open CNTs with different diameters can coaxially self-assemble into a nanocapsule. The nanocapsules formed were stable in aqueous solution under ambient conditions, and the pressure inside the nanocapsule was much higher than the ambient pressure due to the van der Waals interactions between two parts of the nanocapsule. The effect of the normalized radius difference, normalized inter-tube distance and aspect ratio of the CNT pairs were systematically explored. The electric field response of nanocapsules was studied with ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, which shows that nanocapsules can be opened by applying an external electric field, due to the polarization of carbon atoms. This discovery not only sheds light on a simple yet robust nanocapsule self-assembly mechanism, but also underpins potential innovations in drug delivery, nano-reactors, etc.

description: Alfvén waves are believed to play an important role in the heating and acceleration of the fast solar wind emanating from coronal holes. Nonlinear interactions between the dominant ${\bf z}_{+}$ waves and minority ${\bf z}_{-}$ waves have the potential to transfer wave energy either to smaller perpendicular scales ("direct cascade") or to larger scales ("inverse cascade"). In this paper we use reduced magnetohydrodynamic (RMHD) simulations to investigate how the cascade rates $ε_{\pm}$ depend on perpendicular wavenumber and radial distance from Sun center. For models with a smooth background atmosphere we find that an inverse cascade ($ε_{+} < 0$) occurs for the dominant waves at radii between 1.4 and 2.5 $R_\odot$ and dimensionless wavenumbers in the inertial range ($15 < a_\perp < 44$), and a direct cascade ($ε_{+} > 0$) occurs elsewhere. For a model with density fluctuations there are multiple regions with inverse cascade. In both cases the cascade rate $ε_{+}$ varies significantly with perpendicular wavenumber, indicating that the cacsade is a highly non-local process. As a result of the inverse cascades, the enery dissipation rates are much lower than expected from a phenomenological model, and are insufficient to maintain the temperature of the background atmosphere. We conclude that RMHD models are unable to reproduce the observed properties of the fast solar wind.
Offshore bathymetry and sediment patterns of Sydney beaches

description: The submarine topography and the pattern of surface sediment has been examined for twelve Sydney beaches in an attempt to define the seaward boundary of the active sediment zone for each beach. -- The bathymetry is dominated by inherited bedrock forms and the basement topography exhibits evidence of prolonged periods of low sea level and former still stands. The sand bodies associated with each beach fill relict drainage channels and the channel interfluves form extensive areas of exposed rock. -- Two texturally distinct sand bodies are identified. An inshore sequence of seaward fining grain size and an offshore belt of coarser material. A textural discontinuity marking the interface between these two sand bodies and the seaward boundary of the active zone is manifest at only three beaches. The seaward boundary at the other beaches is marked by rock. -- Each beach has strongly individual textural characteristics. Grain size gradings occur along the coast, and along individual beaches. This pattern can be related to the irregular nature of the bathymetry, causing an uneven distribution of wave height at the shoreline. A model of offshore bathymetry and sediment patterns for the Sydney beaches is presented.

description: We experimentally assess the suitability of transmon qubits with fixed frequencies and fixed interactions for the realization of analogue quantum simulations of spin systems. We test a set of necessary criteria for this goal on a commercial quantum processor using full quantum process tomography and more efficient Hamiltonian tomography. Significant single qubit errors at low amplitudes are identified as a limiting factor preventing the realization of analogue simulations on currently available devices. We additionally find spurious dynamics in the absence of drive pulses, which we identify with coherent coupling between the qubit and a low dimensional environment. With moderate improvements, analogue simulation of a rich family of time-dependent many-body spin Hamiltonians may be possible.

description: Background: Digital technologies as tools for health promotion and preventive healthcare have yielded promising results in cigarette smoking and vaping cessation interventions. Interactive conversational agents, also known as “chatbots”, have the potential to increase the success rates of these interventions. However, chatbots appear to be underutilized to support cigarette smoking and vaping cessation. Thus, little is known about their integration, utility, and efficacy in these contexts of intervention. Objective: To explore current interactive conversational agents used in cigarette smoking and vaping cessation interventions and assess their utility and efficacy. Methods: A mixed methods systematic scoping review will be conducted according to the Arksey and O'Malley framework and the guidance of Peters et al. for systematic scoping reviews. A specific search strategy will be formulated for five of the most relevant databases to identify studies published in the last 20 years. Four reviewers will independently apply the inclusion criteria using the full texts and extract the data. Meta-analyses will also be conducted if studies are similar enough. Results: We will use structured narrative summaries of main themes to assess the utility and efficacy of currently available interactive conversational agents targeting cigarette smoking and vaping cessation. We will also summarize the differences and similarities between the conversational agents. Conclusions: This fundamental knowledge will be useful to guide the development of interactive conversational agents and their integration into already existing or future public health interventions targeting cigarette smoking and vaping.

description: As a continuation to the published work on model based calibration technique with HESP(Hanle Echelle Spectrograph) as a case study, in this paper we present the performance results of the technique. We also describe how the open parameters were chosen in the model for optimization, the glass data accuracy and handling the discrepancies. It is observed through simulations that the discrepancies in glass data can be identified but not quantifiable. So having an accurate glass data is important which is possible to obtain from the glass manufacturers. The model's performance in various aspects is presented using the ThAr calibration frames from HESP during its pre-shipment tests. Accuracy of model predictions and its wave length calibration comparison with conventional empirical fitting, the behaviour of open parameters in optimization, model's ability to track instrumental drifts in the spectrum and the double fibres performance were discussed. It is observed that the optimized model is able to predict to a high accuracy the drifts in the spectrum from environmental fluctuations. It is also observed that the pattern in the spectral drifts across the 2D spectrum which vary from image to image is predictable with the optimized model. We will also discuss the possible science cases where the model can contribute.

description: Abstract
As the number of artificial intelligence (AI) applications increases rapidly and more people will be affected by AI’s decisions, there are real needs for novel AI systems that can deliver both accuracy and explanations. To address these needs, this paper proposes a new approach called eXplainable Mapping Analytical Process (XMAP). Different from existing works in explainable AI, XMAP is highly modularised and the interpretability for each step can be easily obtained and visualised. A number of core algorithms are developed in XMAP to capture the distributions and topological structures of data, define contexts that emerged from data, and build effective representations for classification tasks. The experiments show that XMAP can provide useful and interpretable insights across analytical steps. For the binary classification task, its predictive performance is very competitive as compared to advanced machine learning algorithms in the literature. In some large datasets, XMAP can even outperform black-box algorithms without losing its interpretability.
