description: This study has examined the use of an Object-Oriented GIS framework to generate and analyze spatial data in recreation demand analysis. Several forms of GIS analysis are introduced and explained as how they can be utilized in recreational demand analysis. An application of GIS to calculate journey distance and duration has been illustrated with a case study of camping activities in Cherokee National Forest, North Carolina. The recreation demand models using these travel distance and duration are then compared with the models using respondent's stated values and models using distance data obtained from ZIPFIP software. Based on the criteria such as 2 statistic, individual coefficient significance, it is found out that travel cost functions based on GIS calculated distance and time performed better than the other two functions. The coefficients of travel cost and travel time in the GIS-distance based models are highly significant. Thus, a measurement approach that combines the accuracy of GIS approach with route itinerary information elicited from respondents would provide a significantly superior basis for travel cost studies.

Hybrid Shrinkage Estimators Using Penalty Bases For The Ordinal One-Way Layout

description: This paper constructs improved estimators of the means in the Gaussian saturated one-way layout with an ordinal factor. The least squares estimator for the mean vector in this saturated model is usually inadmissible. The hybrid shrinkage estimators of this paper exploit the possibility of slow variation in the dependence of the means on the ordered factor levels but do not assume it and respond well to faster variation if present. To motivate the development, candidate penalized least squares (PLS) estimators for the mean vector of a one-way layout are represented as shrinkage estimators relative to the penalty basis for the regression space. This canonical representation suggests further classes of candidate estimators for the unknown means: monotone shrinkage (MS) estimators or soft-thresholding (ST) estimators or, most generally, hybrid shrinkage (HS) estimators that combine the preceding two strategies. Adaptation selects the estimator within a candidate class that minimizes estimated risk. Under the Gaussian saturated one-way layout model, such adaptive estimators minimize risk asymptotically over the class of candidate estimators as the number of factor levels tends to infinity. Thereby, adaptive HS estimators asymptotically dominate adaptive MS and adaptive ST estimators as well as the least squares estimator. Local annihilators of polynomials, among them difference operators, generate penalty bases suitable for a range of numerical examples.

description:

Reading several letters from the eleven-year correspondence alongside Dred and Daniel Deronda, this paper argues that the model of transatlantic spiritual communication presented by Stowe and Eliot’s epistolary friendship takes on a new and potentially radical light when applied to the concept of a transnational and post racial spiritual community. Each text fundamentally challenges the ability of the realist novel to depict a nuanced understanding of racial identity through the use of spiritualist and religious discourse and imagery.

Fixed-parameter tractability of Directed Multicut with three terminal pairs parameterized by the size of the cutset: twin-width meets flow-augmentation

description: We show fixed-parameter tractability of the Directed Multicut problem with three terminal pairs (with a randomized algorithm). This problem, given a directed graph $G$, pairs of vertices (called terminals) $(s_1,t_1)$, $(s_2,t_2)$, and $(s_3,t_3)$, and an integer $k$, asks to find a set of at most $k$ non-terminal vertices in $G$ that intersect all $s_1t_1$-paths, all $s_2t_2$-paths, and all $s_3t_3$-paths. The parameterized complexity of this case has been open since Chitnis, Cygan, Hajiaghayi, and Marx proved fixed-parameter tractability of the 2-terminal-pairs case at SODA 2012, and Pilipczuk and Wahlström proved the W[1]-hardness of the 4-terminal-pairs case at SODA 2016.
 On the technical side, we use two recent developments in parameterized algorithms. Using the technique of directed flow-augmentation [Kim, Kratsch, Pilipczuk, Wahlström, STOC 2022] we cast the problem as a CSP problem with few variables and constraints over a large ordered domain.We observe that this problem can be in turn encoded as an FO model-checking task over a structure consisting of a few 0-1 matrices. We look at this problem through the lenses of twin-width, a recently introduced structural parameter [Bonnet, Kim, Thomassé, Watrigant, FOCS 2020]: By a recent characterization [Bonnet, Giocanti, Ossona de Mendes, Simon, Thomassé, Toruńczyk, STOC 2022] the said FO model-checking task can be done in FPT time if the said matrices have bounded grid rank. To complete the proof, we show an irrelevant vertex rule: If any of the matrices in the said encoding has a large grid minor, a vertex corresponding to the ``middle'' box in the grid minor can be proclaimed irrelevant -- not contained in the sought solution -- and thus reduced.

A tight quasi-polynomial bound for Global Label Min-Cut

description: We study a generalization of the classic Global Min-Cut problem, called Global Label Min-Cut (or sometimes Global Hedge Min-Cut): the edges of the input (multi)graph are labeled (or partitioned into color classes or hedges), and removing all edges of the same label (color or from the same hedge) costs one. The problem asks to disconnect the graph at minimum cost.
 While the $st$-cut version of the problem is known to be NP-hard, the above global cut version is known to admit a quasi-polynomial randomized $n^{O(\log \mathrm{OPT})}$-time algorithm due to Ghaffari, Karger, and Panigrahi [SODA 2017]. They consider this as ``strong evidence that this problem is in P''. We show that this is actually not the case. We complete the study of the complexity of the Global Label Min-Cut problem by showing that the quasi-polynomial running time is probably optimal: We show that the existence of an algorithm with running time $(np)^{o(\log n/ (\log \log n)^2)}$ would contradict the Exponential Time Hypothesis, where $n$ is the number of vertices, and $p$ is the number of labels in the input. The key step for the lower bound is a proof that Global Label Min-Cut is W[1]-hard when parameterized by the number of uncut labels. In other words, the problem is difficult in the regime where almost all labels need to be cut to disconnect the graph. To turn this lower bound into a quasi-polynomial-time lower bound, we also needed to revisit the framework due to Marx [Theory Comput. 2010] of proving lower bounds assuming Exponential Time Hypothesis through the Subgraph Isomorphism problem parameterized by the number of edges of the pattern. Here, we provide an alternative simplified proof of the hardness of this problem that is more versatile with respect to the choice of the regimes of the parameters.
Role of disorder in the Mott-Hubbard transition

description: We investigate the role of disorder in the Mott-Hubbard transition based on the slave-rotor representation of the Hubbard model, where an electron is decomposed into a fermionic spinon for a spin degree of freedom and a bosonic rotor (chargon) for a charge degree of freedom. In the absence of disorder the Mott-Hubbard insulator is assumed to be the spin liquid Mott insulator in terms of gapless spinons near the Fermi surface and gapped chargons interacting via U(1) gauge fields. We found that the Mott-Hubbard critical point becomes unstable as soon as disorder is turned on. As a result, a disorder critical point appears to be identified with the spin liquid glass insulator to the Fermi liquid metal transition, where the spin liquid glass consists of the U(1) spin liquid and the chargon glass. We expect that glassy behaviors of charge fluctuations can be measured by the optical spectra in the insulating phase of an organic material $κ-(BEDT-TTF)_{2}Cu_{2}(CN)_{3}$. Furthermore, since the Mott-Anderson critical point depends on the spinon conductivity, universality in the critical exponents may not be found.

description: Quantum Chromodynamics predicts phase transition from hadronic matter to quark matter at high density, which is highly probable in astrophysical systems like binary neutron star mergers. To explore the critical density where such phase transition can occur, we performed numerical relativity simulations of binary neutron star mergers with various masses (equal and unequal binaries). We aim to understand the effect of the onset of phase transition on the merger dynamics and gravitational wave spectra. We generated a set of equations of states by agnostically changing the onset of phase transition, having the hadronic matter part and quark matter part fixed. This particular arrangement of the equation of states explores the scenario of mergers where mixed phases of matter are achieved before or during the merger. Under these circumstances, if the matter properties with hadronic and quark degrees differ significantly, it is reflected in the stability of the final merger product for the intermediate mass binary. We performed a case study on mixed species merger, where one of the binary companions is hybrid star. If quark matter appears at low densities, we observe significant change in post-merger gravitational wave analysis in terms of higher peak frequencies and post-merger frequencies in power spectral density. We report indications expressed as spikes in phase difference plots at merger time for mixed mergers. We found that the expression of phase transition in post-merger gravitational wave signals is more significant for unequal mass binary than for equal mass binary having the same total baryonic mass.

description: We study the thermodynamic properties of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe in the brane world scenario, concentrating on the Randall-Sundrum II model. From the first law of thermodynamics for the FRW universe, we find that the work density W can be identified with the thermodynamic pressure P. We construct the equation of state P=P(V,T) for the FRW universe in the brane world scenario, which does not show P-V phase transition. We further study the Joule-Thomson expansion of the FRW universe, and derive the Joule-Thomson coefficient, which has an inversion point that is affected by the brane tension. These results could provide new ways to test the brane world scenario and extra dimension.

description: Perception of obstacles remains a critical safety concern for autonomous vehicles. Real-world collisions have shown that the autonomy faults leading to fatal collisions originate from obstacle existence detection. Open source autonomous driving implementations show a perception pipeline with complex interdependent Deep Neural Networks. These networks are not fully verifiable, making them unsuitable for safety-critical tasks.
 In this work, we present a safety verification of an existing LiDAR based classical obstacle detection algorithm. We establish strict bounds on the capabilities of this obstacle detection algorithm. Given safety standards, such bounds allow for determining LiDAR sensor properties that would reliably satisfy the standards. Such analysis has as yet been unattainable for neural network based perception systems. We provide a rigorous analysis of the obstacle detection system with empirical results based on real-world sensor data.

description: The question of stability of steady spherical accretion has been studied for many years and, recently, the concept of spatial instability has been introduced. Here we study perturbations of steady spherical accretion flows (Bondi solutions), restricting ourselves to the case of self-similar flow, as a case amenable to analytic treatment and with physical interest. We further restrict ourselves to its acoustic perturbations. The radial perturbation equation can be solved in terms of Bessel functions. We study the formulation of adequate boundary conditions and decide for no matter-flux-perturbation conditions (at the Bondi radius and at r=0). We also consider the problem of initial conditions and time evolution, in particular, of radial perturbations. No spatial instability at r=0 is found. The time evolution is such that perturbations eventually become ergodic-like and show no trace of instability or of acquiring any remarkable pattern.

description: One of the first application of the recently introduced technique of \emph{flow-augmentation} [Kim et al., STOC 2022] is a fixed-parameter algorithm for the weighted version of \textsc{Directed Feedback Vertex Set}, a landmark problem in parameterized complexity. In this note we explore applicability of flow-augmentation to other weighted graph separation problems parameterized by the size of the cutset. We show the following. -- In weighted undirected graphs \textsc{Multicut} is FPT, both in the edge- and vertex-deletion version. -- The weighted version of \textsc{Group Feedback Vertex Set} is FPT, even with an oracle access to group operations. -- The weighted version of \textsc{Directed Subset Feedback Vertex Set} is FPT. Our study reveals \textsc{Directed Symmetric Multicut} as the next important graph separation problem whose parameterized complexity remains unknown, even in the unweighted setting.

description: Resistivity measurements were carried out up to 8 GPa on single crystal and polycrystalline samples of CeCu2Si2 from differing sources in the homogeneity range. The anisotropic response to current direction and small uniaxial stresses was explored, taking advantage of the quasi-hydrostatic environment of the Bridgman anvil cell. It was found that both the superconducting transition temperature Tc and the normal state properties are very sensitive to uniaxial stress, which leads to a shift of the valence instability pressure Pv and a small but significant change in Tc for different orientations with respect to the tetragonal c-axis. Coexistence of superconductivity and residual resistivity close to the Ioffe-Regel limit around 5 GPa provides a compelling argument for the existence of a valence-fluctuation mediated pairing interaction at high pressure in CeCu2Si2.

description: We introduce the "leaking elastic capacitor" (LEC) model, a nonconservative dynamical system that combines simple electrical and mechanical degrees of freedom. We show that an LEC connected to an external voltage source can be destabilized (Hopf bifurcation) due to positive feedback between the mechanical separation of the plates and their electrical charging. Numerical simulation finds regimes in which the LEC exhibits a limit cycle (regular self-oscillation) or strange attractors (chaos). The LEC acts as an autonomous engine, cyclically performing work at the expense of the constant voltage source. We show that this mechanical work can be used to pump current, generating an electromotive force without any time-varying magnetic flux and in a thermodynamically irreversible way. We consider how this mechanism can sustain electromechanical waves propagating along flexible plates. We argue that the LEC model can offer a qualitatively new and more realistic description of important properties of active systems with electrical double layers in condensed-matter physics, chemistry, and biology.

В процессе перевода некоторые существенные детали статьи могут быть упущены, если переводчик не компетентен в медицинской тематике и терминологии, он может избежать связанных с этим трудностей. Кроме того, медики могут сами публиковать статью на иностранном языке, тем самым представить результаты своих исследований международному медицинскому сообществу. Более того, знание иностранных языков дает возможность стажировок за рубежом и международной коммуникации. Наконец, изучение языков способствует развитию памяти, что также необходимо при изучении медицинских дисциплин, расширению кругозора и общей эрудиции.

description: Internalizing behaviors, such as anxiety and depression, have frequently been associated with temperament characteristics, specifically Behavioral Inhibition (BI) traits, such as Shyness and Fearfulness. While Effortful Control (EC) has been posited as a potential moderator in the relationship between heightened negative emotionality and Internalizing problems, empirical evidence precisely about BI remains inconclusive. This cross-sectional study investigated the role of Effortful Control and its sub-constructs (Attentional Focusing, Inhibitory Control, Low-intensity Pleasure, and Perceptual Sensitivity) in moderating the relation between Behavioral Inhibition (fear and shyness) and internalizing behaviors in a sample of 130 kindergarteners. The findings indicated that Behavioral Inhibition was significantly correlated with and predicted internalizing behaviors. However, no significant correlations were found between Effortful Control, its sub-constructs, and internalizing behaviors in this sample. Additionally, Effortful Control and its sub-constructs did not moderate the relationship between Behavioral Inhibition and internalizing behaviors.
Resonant tunneling and Fano resonance in quantum dots with electron-phonon interaction

description: We theoretically study the resonant tunneling and Fano resonance in quantum dots with electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction. We examine the bias-voltage ($V$) dependence of the decoherence, using Keldysh Green function method and perturbation with respect to the e-ph interaction. With optical phonons of energy $ω_0$, only the elastic process takes place when $eVω_0$, the inelastic process is possible which is accompanied by real emission of phonons. It results in the dephasing and broadens the resonant width. The bias-voltage dependence of the decoherence cannot be obtained by the canonical transformation method to consider the e-ph interaction if its effect on the tunnel coupling is neglected. With acoustic phonons, the asymmetric shape of the Fano resonance grows like a symmetric one as the bias voltage increases, in qualitative accordance with experimental results.

description: This paper is concerned with general nonlinear regression models where the predictor variables are subject to Berkson-type measurement errors. The measurement errors are assumed to have a general parametric distribution, which is not necessarily normal. In addition, the distribution of the random error in the regression equation is nonparametric. A minimum distance estimator is proposed, which is based on the first two conditional moments of the response variable given the observed predictor variables. To overcome the possible computational difficulty of minimizing an objective function which involves multiple integrals, a simulation-based estimator is constructed. Consistency and asymptotic normality for both estimators are derived under fairly general regularity conditions.

description: Bulk EuPd$_2$Si$_2$ show a temperature-driven valence transisition of europium from $\sim$+2 above 200 K to $\sim$+3 below 100 K, which is correlated with a shrinking by approximatly 2 % of the crystal lattice along the two a-axes. Due to this interconnection between lattice and electronic degrees of freedom the influence of strain in epitaxial thin films is particularly interesting. Ambient X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirms an epitaxial relationship of tetragonal EuPd$_2$Si$_2$ on MgO(001) with an out-of plane c-axis orientation for the thin film, whereby the a-axes of both lattices align. XRD at low temperatures reveals a strong coupling of the thin film lattice to the substrate, showing no abrupt compression over the temperature range from 300 to 10 K. Hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy at 300 and 20 K reveals a temperature-independent valence of +2.0 for Eu. The evolving biaxial tensile strain upon cooling is suggested to suppress the valence transition. Instead low temperature transport measurements of the resistivity and the Hall effect in a magnetic field up to 5 T point to a film thickness independent phase transition at 16-20 K, indicating magnetic ordering.

description: В статье обсуждается проблема применения игровых компонентов в образовательном процессе медицинского университета. Говорится, что игра предполагает наличие стратегий взаимодействия, мышления, обучения и решения проблем. Особое внимание уделяется тому факту, что игра стимулирует интерактивность и позволяет обучающимся работать в команде и совместно идти к достижению общей цели. Давно известно, что игра является средством обучения профессионально-ориентированному общению на иностранном языке в неязыковом вузе. На занятиях по иностранному языку в ВГМУ игровой компонент, помимо всего прочего, используется для развития и формирования профессионально-значимых личностных характеристик будущих медицинских работников. Однако, опыт преподавателей-клиницистов Воронежского государственного медицинского университета им. Н.Н. Бурденко демонстрирует, что элементы игровых технологий можно с успехом применять в обучении русских и иностранных студентов на практических занятиях по факультетской хирургии.

Count and cofactor matroids of highly connected graphs

description: We consider two types of matroids defined on the edge set of a graph $G$: count matroids ${\cal M}_{k,\ell}(G)$, in which independence is defined by a sparsity count involving the parameters $k$ and $\ell$, and the (three-dimensional generic) cofactor matroid $\mathcal{C}(G)$, in which independence is defined by linear independence in the cofactor matrix of $G$. We give tight lower bounds, for each pair $(k,\ell)$, that show that if $G$ is sufficiently highly connected, then $G-e$ has maximum rank for all $e\in E(G)$, and ${\cal M}_{k,\ell}(G)$ is connected. These bounds unify and extend several previous results, including theorems of Nash-Williams and Tutte ($k=\ell$), and Lovász and Yemini ($k=2, \ell=3$). We also prove that if $G$ is highly connected, then the vertical connectivity of $\mathcal{C}(G)$ is also high.
 We use these results to generalize Whitney's celebrated result on the graphic matroid of $G$ (which corresponds to ${\cal M}_{1,1}(G)$) to all count matroids and to the three-dimensional cofactor matroid: if $G$ is highly connected, depending on $k$ and $\ell$, then the count matroid ${\cal M}_{k,\ell}(G)$ uniquely determines $G$; and similarly, if $G$ is $14$-connected, then its cofactor matroid $\mathcal{C}(G)$ uniquely determines $G$. We also derive similar results for the $t$-fold union of the three-dimensional cofactor matroid, and use them to prove that every $24$-connected graph has a spanning tree $T$ for which $G-E(T)$ is $3$-connected, which verifies a case of a conjecture of Kriesell.

description: 2010 год стал знаменательным для биологической науки в свете завершения проекта по полному химическому синтезу генома и его трансплантации, реализованного в Институте Крейга Вентера, Роквилл, штат Мэриленд. Исследовательская группа, возглавляемая нобелевским лауреатом Х. Смитом, К. Вентером и К. Хатчисоном успешно осуществила трансплантацию генома M. Mycoides, синтезированного de novo, в клетки Mycoplasma capricolum. Для того, чтобы подтвердить успех экспериментальной работы, в донорский геном были добавлены дополнительные репертуары, среди которых четыре т.н. водяных знака и два гена: TetM, продукт которого обеспечивает резистентность к антибиотику тетрациклину, а также lacZ, кодирующий фермент β-галактозидазу. Таким образом, верификация эффективности трансплантации могла быть осуществлена тремя способами: 1. Контрольное полногеномное секвенирование идентификация водяных знаков. 2. Добавление в культуральные среды тетрациклина лизис клеток с интактным геном, не экспрессирующих tetM. Отсутствие бактериостатического влияния на клетки с синтетическим геномом. 3. Обработка культуральных сред органическим соединением X-gal колонии окрашиваются в ярко синий цвет на фоне экспрессии lacZ, продукт которого расщепляет это соединение. В конечном счёте, успешность экспериментальной работы была подтверждена, ознаменовав создание первого в истории синтетического организма, созданного человеком. Лингвистический интерес этого выдающегося прорыва состоит в водяных знаках, содержащихся в геноме синтетических бактерий, в которых зашифрованы послания на английском языке. Таким образом, трансплантация генома, синтезированного de novo, в живые клетки является первым в истории прецедентом, когда человеческий язык был переведён на язык нуклеиновых кислот. Целью настоящего исследования является биологический и лингвистический анализ адаптации английского алфавита к генетическому коду, что является первой в истории попыткой кодирования формально негенетической информации в живой клетке; картирование локусов водяных знаков в синтетической хромосоме и их полная расшифровка.

description: Using a renormalization group approach, we determine the phase diagram of an extended quasi-one-dimensional electron gas model that includes interchain hopping, nesting deviations and both intrachain and interchain repulsive interactions. We find a close proximity of spin-density- and charge-density-wave phases, singlet d-wave and triplet f-wave superconducting phases. There is a striking correspondence between our results and recent puzzling experimental findings in the Bechgaard salts, including the coexistence of spin-density-wave and charge-density-wave phases and the possibility of a triplet pairing in the superconducting phase.

description: В статье рассматривается актуальная проблема коммуникативных отношений между врачом и пациентом в России и Германии. Авторы ставят цель выявить и проанализировать степень удовлетворенности пациента взаимоотношениями с врачами первичного звена здравоохранения (терапевта в России и домашнего врача в Германии) на фоне современных тенденций в сфере здравоохранения. В ходе исследования применялись методы опроса и анкетирования студентов российского и немецкого медицинских вузов. Авторы делают вывод о наличии прямой корреляции между «коммерциализацией» сферы здравоохранения в рассматриваемых странах и степенью удовлетворенности сложившимися в них моделями отношений «врач пациент».

description: The study presents a conceptual model of an aggregator who selectively pays farmers for altering farming practices in exchange for carbon offsets that the change in practices generates. Under the assumption that the offsets are stochastic and that the aggregator maximizes the sum of the offsets from the purchase that he/she can rightfully claim with a specified level of confidence subject to a budget constraint, we investigate the optimal discounting of expected carbon offsets. We use the model to estimate empirically the optimal discounting levels and costs for a hypothetical carbon purchasing project in the Upper Iowa River Basin.
