description: Questionnaire data present challenges, as a missing item of a multi-item scale would lead to a total missing scale. A researcher applying multiple imputation to an incomplete multi-item questionnaire can impute the incomplete items prior to computing scale scores or impute the scale score entirely. Methodologist have favored item-level imputation because it greatly enhances precision in comparison to scale-level imputation; however, this benefit in precision might not translate into longitudinal data studies where entire questionnaire batteries are missing. We investigated the performance of item- and scale-level imputation model and found that item-level imputation did not produce a precision advantage in estimating any of the growth model parameters and scale-level showed better precision in estimating the slope variance parameter than item-level imputation.

description: The worldwide trade network has been widely studied through different data sets and network representations with a view to better understanding interactions among countries and products. Here we investigate international trade through the lenses of the single-layer, multiplex, and multi-layer networks. We discuss differences among the three network frameworks in terms of their relative advantages in capturing salient topological features of trade. We draw on the World Input-Output Database to build the three networks. We then uncover sources of heterogeneity in the way strength is allocated among countries and transactions by computing the strength distribution and entropy in each network. Additionally, we trace how entropy evolved, and show how the observed peaks can be associated with the onset of the global economic downturn. Findings suggest how more complex representations of trade, such as the multi-layer network, enable us to disambiguate the distinct roles of intra- and cross-industry transactions in driving the evolution of entropy at a more aggregate level. We discuss our results and the implications of our comparative analysis of networks for research on international trade and other empirical domains across the natural and social sciences.

title: Investigating novel vaccine candidates for Clostridium difficile
Creators: name: Hall, C
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine

description: Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is the most common cause of nosocomial diarrhoea worldwide. Current treatment options have varied levels of success and there is no licensed vaccine. Most vaccines investigated to date use the C. difficile toxins, as these induce a protective immune response. However, this is only against the symptoms of CDI, therefore there is a need for antigens capable of preventing colonisation and transmission. The results of a C. difficile specific pan-protein array, screened against blood samples from CDI patients and healthy controls, was analysed and a shortlist of proteins identified where the IgG antibody response was significantly higher in the control group. Three of these were expressed and purified in E. coli, and tested against patient samples in an ELISA. For two of the three proteins, there was a higher IgG response in the healthy control group (albeit not significant) confirming the array results. Inactivation of three immunogenic proteins from the array in C. difficile R20291 revealed the putative permease CDR20291_0342, was not involved in efflux of the antimicrobials tested. Inactivation of the putative pilin protein, CDR20291_3343, did not influence surface motility, but motility was almost abolished in a flagella mutant. The putative cobalt transporter CDR20291_0330, was proposed to contribute to a putative vitamin B12 synthesis pathway, which is required for ethanolamine utilisation. Neither R20291Δ0330 or R20291 utilised ethanolamine in the conditions tested but it was found that inactivation of one component of the two-component regulatory system in C. difficile 630Δerm abolished ethanolamine utilisation. Finally, mechanisms of synthesising C. difficile glycoconjugates using bioconjugation were investigated, using a carrier protein and portion of the R20291 flagella glycan. A short acceptor peptide was designed and found to be glycosylated at all sites with a glycan from Campylobacter jejuni but it was not possible to detect glycosylation with the flagella glycan from C. difficile.
Rising wage differential between white-collar and blue-collar workers and market concentration: The case of the USA, 1964-2007

subject: L1, D4, J31

description: I suggest that market concentration at aggregate level has a significant structural impact on the wage differential between white-collar and blue-collar workers. Both phenomena are increasing as larger firms are more inclined to employ and pay more white-collar workers, in order to increase and/or maintain their market share by way of innovative tasks carried out by white-collars such as R&D, design and product differentiation, financial/capital market operations, market research, advertising and sales operations, etc. The causality from market concentration to wage differential runs through an effective demand channel and one based on the diffusion of innovations. The innovative contribution of the paper is to reveal this relationship of structural causality, and to provide a new measurement of aggregate market concentration which is calculated as the reverse of the break-even point. The argument is tested for the case of the USA between 1964 and 2007 using Vector Error Correction Model. The findings confirm the existence of a long-run positive relationship from market concentration in the nonfinancial corporate sector to the wage differential. JEL codes: L1, D4, J31

description: This study aimed to explore the underlying role and mechanism of LINC00313 in osteoarthritis (OA) progression. CHON-001 chondrocytes were treated with interleukin (IL)-1β to induce OA in vitro, and then transfected with LINC00313 overexpression plasmids (pcDNA-LINC00313) or small interfering RNA against tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 1 (si-TRAF1). Cell viability, apoptosis, levels of inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-6 and IL-8, and expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation related proteins in CHON-001 cells were determined. TRAF1 promoter methylation were was detected with methylation‐specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) assay. Furthermore, a c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling activator was used to confirm whether the apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1)/JNK signaling pathway was involved in the function of LINC00313/TRAF1 axis in chondrocytes. In addition, an OA mouse model was established and lentivirus LINC00313 overexpression vector (Lv-LINC00313) was injected, and then inflammatory cytokine levels, ECM protein expression, and pathological changes in cartilage tissues were detected. LINC00313 was downregulated and TRAF1 was upregulated in OA cartilage tissues. LINC00313 overexpression or TRAF1 silencing attenuated IL-1β-induced viability inhibition, apoptosis, inflammation and ECM degradation in CHON-001 cells. Moreover, LINC00313 inhibited TRAF1 expression through promoting DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) mediated promoter methylation. TRAF1 overexpression reversed the effects of LINC00313 on IL-1β-induced chondrocyte injury. LINC00313 overexpression inhibited the ASK1/JNK signaling pathway, and JNK activator reversed the effect. In addition, Lv-LINC00313 treatment alleviated cartilage tissue damage and cartilage matrix degradation in OA mice. LINC00313 alleviated OA progression through inhibiting TRAF1 expression and the ASK1/JNK signaling pathway.

description: Using the eigenvalue definition of binomial states we construct new intermediate number-coherent states which reduce to number and coherent states in two different limits. We reveal the connection of these intermediate states with photon-added coherent states and investigate their non-classical properties and quasi-probability distributions in detail. It is of interest to note that these new states, which interpolate between coherent states and number states, neither of which exhibit squeezing, are nevertheless squeezed states. A scheme to produce these states is proposed. We also study the interaction of these states with atomic systems in the framework of the two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model, and describe the response of the atomic system as it varies between the pure Rabi oscillation and the collapse-revival mode and investigate field observables such as photon number distribution, entropy and the Q-function.

description: We show with several examples that renormalization group (RG) theory can be used to understand singular and reductive perturbation methods in a unified fashion. Amplitude equations describing slow motion dynamics in nonequilibrium phenomena are RG equations. The renormalized perturbation approach may be simpler to use than other approaches, because it does not require the use of asymptotic matching, and yields practically superior approximations.

Subjects: subject: Maps, cartography, China, Ferdinand Verbiest.

description: This thesis analyses both the process that was involved in creating Father Ferdinand Verbiest's Kunyu Quantu, 1674, and the finished product. The process is examined through looking into a myriad of differing aspects linked to this map. Major themes are the history of mapping in China, the Jesuits and Verbiest. The iconographic significance and provenance of the Map are explored, in addition to contemporary geographical and religious issues and ideas of the natural world. Chapter one examines how China and the West influenced the creation of Father Ferdinand Verbiest's Kunyu Quantu, of 1674 and provides an examination of why maps in general were created. Chapter two explores Father Ferdinand Verbiest and the Jesuits. Chapter Three discusses the various factors concerned with Verbiest's role in importing geographical science to China. The comparison between what was taking place during the Renaissance in Europe and what was happening in China especially during the seventeenth century is examined. Chapter four analyses the Kunyu Quantu's physical description and its precursors. Chapter five examines the source for the majority of the images that can be found within the confines of Verbiest's Kunyu Quantu and how it came to arrive within the collection of Dr. William Hunter.

Hybrid Graphene-Plasmonic Gratings to Achieve Enhanced Nonlinear Effects at Terahertz Frequencies

description: High input intensities are usually required to efficiently excite optical nonlinear effects in ultrathin structures. This problem is particularly critical at terahertz (THz) frequencies because high input power THz sources are not available. The demonstration of enhanced nonlinear effects at THz frequencies is particularly important since these nonlinear mechanisms promise to play a significant role in the development and design of new reconfigurable planar THz nonlinear devices. In this work, we present a novel class of ultrathin nonlinear hybrid planar THz devices based on graphene-covered plasmonic gratings exhibiting very large nonlinear response. The robust localization and enhancement of the electric field along the graphene monolayer, combined with the large nonlinear conductivity of graphene, can lead to boosted third harmonic generation (THG) and four-wave mixing (FWM) nonlinear processes at THz frequencies. These interesting nonlinear effects exhibit very high nonlinear conversion efficiencies and are triggered by realistic input intensities with relative low values. In addition, the THG and FWM processes can be significantly tuned by the dimensions of the proposed hybrid structures, the doping level of graphene, or the input intensity values, whereas the nonlinear radiated power remains relatively insensitive to the incident angle of the excitation source. The presented nonlinear hybrid graphene-covered plasmonic gratings have a relative simple geometry and can be used to realize efficient third-order THz effects with a limited fabrication complexity. Several new nonlinear THz devices are envisioned based on the proposed hybrid nonlinear structures, such as frequency generators, all-optical signal processors, and wave mixers. These devices are expected to be useful for nonlinear THz spectroscopy, noninvasive THz subwavelength imaging, and THz communication applications.

description: A general scheme to perform universal quantum computation within decoherence-free subspaces (DFSs) of a system's Hilbert space is presented. This scheme leads to the first fault-tolerant realization of universal quantum computation on DFSs with the properties that (i) only one- and two-qubit interactions are required, and (ii) the system remains within the DFS throughout the entire implementation of a quantum gate. We show explicitly how to perform universal computation on clusters of the four-qubit DFS encoding one logical qubit each under "collective decoherence" (qubit-permutation-invariant system-bath coupling). Our results have immediate relevance to a number of solid-state quantum computer implementations, in particular those in which quantum logic is implemented through exchange interactions, such as the recently proposed spin-spin coupled GaAs quantum dot arrays and the Si:$^{31}$P nuclear spin arrays.

Hayden White, Postmodern Anxieties, and the Linguis-tic Turn
Creators: name: Carrard, Philippe
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Cagliari
Year: 2019

description: This essay examines what remains of the Linguistic turn (LT) after Hay-den White, in the two meanings of the preposition “after”: “subsequent to” and “according to”. For White, the LT (under the umbrella of post-modernism) has made it possible to transcend a number of distinctions, such as those between text and context, fact and fiction, and history and literature. Those distinctions, however, are still defended by a large part of the historical community, including by scholars involved in exper-imental works, such as I. Jablonka. Furthermore, some philosophers hold the debates about the LT to be irrelevant. The specificity of history, for them, does not reside in its formal aspects (e.g., its use of narra-tive), but in its relations to evidence. History, like all scientific disciplines, must validate its statements, namely, establish that they are well founded and justified.

description: We study the effect of correlations in generation times on the dynamics of population growth of microorganisms. We show that any non-zero correlation that is due to cell-size regulation, no matter how small, induces long-term oscillations in the population growth rate. The population only reaches its steady state when we include the often-neglected variability in the growth rates of individual cells. We discover that the relaxation time scale of the population to its steady state is determined by the distribution of single-cell growth rates and is surprisingly independent of details of the division process such as the noise in the timing of division and the mechanism of cell-size regulation. We validate the predictions of our model using existing experimental data and propose an experimental method to measure single-cell growth variability by observing how long it takes for the population to reach its steady state or balanced growth.

Quantum interference in the fluorescence of a molecular system

description: It has been observed experimentally [H.R. Xia, C.Y. Ye, and S.Y. Zhu, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 77}, 1032 (1996)] that quantum interference between two molecular transitions can lead to a suppression or enhancement of spontaneous emission. This is manifested in the fluorescent intensity as a function of the detuning of the driving field from the two-photon resonance condition. Here we present a theory which explains the observed variation of the number of peaks with the mutual polarization of the molecular transition dipole moments. Using master equation techniques we calculate analytically as well as numerically the steady-state fluorescence, and find that the number of peaks depends on the excitation process. If the molecule is driven to the upper levels by a two-photon process, the fluorescent intensity consists of two peaks regardless of the mutual polarization of the transition dipole moments. If the excitation process is composed of both a two-step one-photon process and a one-step, two-photon process, then there are two peaks on transitions with parallel dipole moments and three peaks on transitions with antiparallel dipole moments. This latter case is in excellent agreement with the experiment.

Le temps chez les historiens: un impensé? [Historians’ Time: Something Unthought?]

description: Historians have long used founding concepts of their discipline without questioning their relevance. So it is with time, a cardinal concept for historians who have the change as their privileged object. The current reflexive moment of historical practice becomes favorable to bring out this notion of temporality from its unthought-of dimension. Psychoanalysis can make its contribution to the historian in this respect so that he abandons his teleological illusions and takes into account the heterochrony inherent in a fundamentally layered temporality of different strata, which is not linear in any way.

description: We present results from a study of the coherence properties of a system involving three discrete states coupled to each other by two-photon processes via a common continuum. This tripod linkage is an extension of the standard laser-induced continuum structure (LICS) which involves two discrete states and two lasers. We show that in the tripod scheme, there exist two population trapping conditions; in some cases these conditions are easier to satisfy than the single trapping condition in two-state LICS. Depending on the pulse timing, various effects can be observed. We derive some basic properties of the tripod scheme, such as the solution for coincident pulses, the behaviour of the system in the adiabatic limit for delayed pulses, the conditions for no ionization and for maximal ionization, and the optimal conditions for population transfer between the discrete states via the continuum. In the case when one of the discrete states is strongly coupled to the continuum, the population dynamics reduces to a standard two-state LICS problem (involving the other two states) with modified parameters; this provides the opportunity to customize the parameters of a given two-state LICS system.

La crisi di storicità e la moderna contingenza del reale [The Crises of Historicity and the Modern Contingency of the Real]
Creators: name: Lista, Rossana
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Cagliari
Year: 2019

description: Modernity is by definition the era of rupture and discontinuity. Science has built an image of the world fragmented and dispersed into separate realities, based on a type of observation that no longer depends on reference to a common world or is ontologically predisposed. The real of modernity has therefore changed its status: it is structurally contingent and knowable by paradoxes. All the peculiar values of modern society are now formulated in the modal form of contingency. The temporal orientation of the Self itself has become contingent, and it is less and less able to base its own identity on a narrative synthesis of its own history/History. The so-called "real-time" of the mediated experience makes the real disappear in the instantaneousness of its apparent revelation. While the future, as a risk, is continuously dragged into the present, the past is constantly excluded as radically different. These are the terms of a crisis of historicity that the present essay intends to illustrate and analyze.

description: We present results on entropy and heat-capacity of the spin-S honeycomb-lattice Kitaev models using high-temperature series expansions and thermal pure quantum (TPQ) state methods. We study models with anisotropic couplings $J_z=1\ge J_x=J_y$ for spin values 1/2, 1, 3/2, and 2. We show that for $S>1/2$, any anisotropy leads to well developed plateaus in the entropy function at an entropy value of $\frac{1}{2}\ln{2}$, independent of $S$. However, in the absence of anisotropy, there is an incipient entropy plateau at $S_{max}/2$, where $S_{max}$ is the infinite temperature entropy of the system. We discuss possible underlying microscopic reasons for the origin and implications of these entropy plateaus.

description: Focusing on Deleuze´s concept of becoming and on the way it embraces difference in the genesis of literary writing, we intend to put in dialogue the concept and the philosopher with the post-colonial criticism and its re-articulation of the subaltern´s issue, to make a reinterpretation of the becoming and its variations – becoming-woman, becoming-minor – for cultural and literary analysis.

description: In this work, an experimentally validated multiscale modeling framework for additively manufactured shell lattice structures with graded parameters is introduced. It is exemplifed in application to the Schwarz primitive triply periodic minimal surface microstructure and 3D printing using masked stereolithography of a photopolymer material. The systematic procedure starts with the characterization of a hyperelastic material model for the 3D printed material. This constitutive model is then employed in the fnite element simulation of shell lattices at fnite deformations. The computational model is validated with experimental compression tests of printed lattice structures. In this way, the numerical convergence behavior and size dependence of the model are assessed, and the range in which it is reasonable to assume linear elastic behavior is determined. Then, representative volume elements subject to periodic boundary conditions are simulated to homogenize the mechanical behavior of Schwarz primitives with varying aspect ratios and shell thicknesses. Subsequently, the parameterized efective linear elasticity tensor of the metamaterial is represented by a physics-augmented neural network model. With this constitutive model, functionally graded shell lattice structures with varying microstructural parameters are simulated as macroscale continua using fnite element and diferential quadrature methods. The accuracy, reliability and efectiveness of this multiscale simulation approach are investigated and discussed. Overall, it is shown that this experimentally validated multiscale simulation framework, which is likewise applicable to other shell-like metamaterials, facilitates the design of functionally graded structures through additive manufacturing.

description: The Stark coefficient of the Er 3+ ion in Y 2 SiO 5 is determined for transition). The stark photon echo beating method (SPEB) was used: the pseudo-Stark frequency shift was measured from the period of beats of the temporal form of the photon echo signal. Light beatings were caused by the use of a weak electric field pulse that splits the frequencies of optical transitions of nonequivalent subgroups of echo-active Er 3+ ions in Y 2 SiO5

Temperature spectra in shear flow and thermal convection

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that the $P_u(\om) \propto \om^{-7/3}$ shear velocity power spectrum gives rise to a $P_Θ(\om ) \propto \om^{-4/3}$ power spectrum for a passively advected scalar, as measured in experiment [K. Sreenivasan, Proc. R. Soc. London A {\bf 434}, 165 (1991)]. Applying our argument to high Rayleigh number Rayleigh Benard flow, we can account for the measured scaling exponents equally well as the Bolgiano Obukhov theory (BO59). Yet, of the two explanations, only the shear approach might be able to explain why no classical scaling range is seen in between the shear (or BO59) range and the viscous subrange of the experimental temperature spectrum [I. Procaccia {\it et al.}, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 44}, 8091 (1991)].

description: We propose a stochastic modified equations (SME) for modeling the asynchronous stochastic gradient descent (ASGD) algorithms. The resulting SME of Langevin type extracts more information about the ASGD dynamics and elucidates the relationship between different types of stochastic gradient algorithms. We show the convergence of ASGD to the SME in the continuous time limit, as well as the SME's precise prediction to the trajectories of ASGD with various forcing terms. As an application of the SME, we propose an optimal mini-batching strategy for ASGD via solving the optimal control problem of the associated SME.

L’histoire des sensibilités: un territoire-limite ? [The History of Sensibilities: A Borderline Territory?]

description: The history of sensibilities, emotions, the body are now in full renewal. Certainly, Lucien Febvre was already calling for this enrichment of the historian’s territory and the success of the history of mentalities in the seventies had already begun to occupy this promising field. It is now enriched by the contributions of the historiographical and reflexive turn of events, which has made it possible to take the actors seriously, to take an interest in their experiences, their testimonies and their perceptions. From this completely new perspective, it is a vast field of investigation that opens up to historical writing, following in the footsteps among others of Norbert Elias and Alain Corbin.

Gauss-Bonnet Gravity in $D=4$ Without Gauss-Bonnet Coupling to Matter - Cosmological Implications

description: We propose a new model of $D=4$ Gauss-Bonnet gravity. To avoid the usual property of the integral over the standard $D=4$ Gauss-Bonnet scalar becoming a total derivative term, we employ the formalism of metric-independent non-Riemannian spacetime volume elements which makes the D=4 Gauss-Bonnet action term non-trivial without the need to couple it to matter fields unlike the case of ordinary D=4 Gauss-Bonnet gravity models. The non-Riemannian volume element dynamically triggers the Gauss-Bonnet scalar to be an arbitrary integration constant M on-shell, which in turn has several interesting cosmological implications: (i) It yields specific solutions for the Hubble parameter and the Friedmann scale factor as functions of time, which are completely independent of the matter dynamics, i.e., there is no back reaction by matter on the cosmological metric; (ii) For M>0 it predicts a "coasting"-like evolution immediately after the Big Bang, and it yields a late universe with dynamically produced dark energy density given through M; (iii) For the special value M=0 we obtain exactly a linear "coasting" cosmology; (iv) For M<0 we have in addition to the Big Bang also a Big Crunch with "coasting"-like evolution around both; (v) It allows for an explicit analytic solution of the pertinent Friedmann and scalar field equations of motion, while dynamically fixing uniquely the functional dependence of the scalar potential.
