description: Persistence diagrams (PDs) are the most common descriptors used to encode the topology of structured data appearing in challenging learning tasks; think e.g. of graphs, time series or point clouds sampled close to a manifold. Given random objects and the corresponding distribution of PDs, one may want to build a statistical summary-such as a mean-of these random PDs, which is however not a trivial task as the natural geometry of the space of PDs is not linear. In this article, we study two such summaries, the Expected Persistence Diagram (EPD), and its quantization. The EPD is a measure supported on R 2 , which may be approximated by its empirical counterpart. We prove that this estimator is optimal from a minimax standpoint on a large class of models with a parametric rate of convergence. The empirical EPD is simple and efficient to compute, but possibly has a very large support, hindering its use in practice. To overcome this issue, we propose an algorithm to compute a quantization of the empirical EPD, a measure with small support which is shown to approximate with near-optimal rates a quantization of the theoretical EPD.
Stability and mode analysis of solar coronal loops using thermodynamic irreversible energy principles II. Modes in twisted non--isothermal magnetic field configurations

description: We study the stability and the modes of non -- isothermal coronal loop models with different intensity values of the equilibrium twisted magnetic field.We use an energy principle obtained via non -- equilibrium thermodynamic arguments. The principle is expressed in terms of Hermitian operators and allows to consider together the coupled system of equations: the balance of energy equation and the equation of motion, to obtain modes and eigenmodes in a spectrum ranging from short to long--wavelength disturbances without having to use weak varying approximations of the equilibrium parameters. Long--wavelength perturbations introduce additional difficulties because the inhomogeneous nature of the medium determines disturbances leading to continuous intervals of eigenfrequencies which cannot be considered as purely sinusoidal.We analyze the modification of periods, modes structure and stability when the helicity, the magnetic field strength and the radius of the fluxtube are varied. The efficiency of the damping due to the resonant absorption mechanism is analyzed in a context of modes that can either impulsively release or storage magnetic energy.We find that the onset of the instability is associated to a critical value of the helicity and that the magnetic energy content has a determinant role on the instability of the system with respect to the stabilizing effect of the resonant absorption mechanism.

Fast computation of the Gauss hypergeometric function with all its parameters complex with application to the Poschl-Teller-Ginocchio potential wave functions

description: The fast computation of the Gauss hypergeometric function 2F1 with all its parameters complex is a difficult task. Although the 2F1 function verifies numerous analytical properties involving power series expansions whose implementation is apparently immediate, their use is thwarted by instabilities induced by cancellations between very large terms. Furthermore, small areas of the complex plane are inaccessible using only 2F1 power series formulas, thus rendering 2F1 evaluations impossible on a purely analytical basis. In order to solve these problems, a generalization of R.C. Forrey's transformation theory has been developed. The latter has been successful in treating the 2F1 function with real parameters. As in real case transformation theory, the large canceling terms occurring in 2F1 analytical formulas are rigorously dealt with, but by way of a new method, directly applicable to the complex plane. Taylor series expansions are employed to enter complex areas outside the domain of validity of power series analytical formulas. The proposed algorithm, however, becomes unstable in general when |a|,|b|,|c| are moderate or large. As a physical application, the calculation of the wave functions of the analytical Poschl-Teller-Ginocchio potential involving 2F1 evaluations is considered.

The current-voltage characteristics exhibit current peaks that are irregularly spaced and varied in height. The statistics of the distribution of peak heights and spacings are in agreement with random matrix theory for several clusters. The distributions have also been studied as a function of cluster shape.

description: We investigate experimentally the mixing dynamics in a channel flow with a finite stirring region undergoing chaotic advection. We study the homogenization of dye in two variants of an eggbeater stirring protocol that differ in the extent of their mixing region. In the first case, the mixing region is separated from the side walls of the channel, while in the second it extends to the walls. For the first case, we observe the onset of a permanent concentration pattern that repeats over time with decaying intensity. A quantitative analysis of the concentration field of dye confirms the convergence to a self-similar pattern, akin to the strange eigenmodes previously observed in closed flows. We model this phenomenon using an idealized map, where an analysis of the mixing dynamics explains the convergence to an eigenmode. In contrast, for the second case the presence of no-slip walls and separation points on the frontier of the mixing region leads to non-self-similar mixing dynamics.

description: We study a system of $N$ qubits with a random Hamiltonian obtained by drawing coupling constants from Gaussian distributions in various ways. This results in a rich class of systems which include the GUE and the fixed $q$ SYK theories. Our motivation is to understand the system at large $N$. In practice most of our calculations are carried out using exact diagonalisation techniques (up to $N=24$). Starting with the GUE, we study the resulting behaviour as the randomness is decreased. While in general the system goes from being chaotic to being more ordered as the randomness is decreased, the changes in various properties, including the density of states, the spectral form factor, the level statistics and out-of-time-ordered correlators, reveal interesting patterns. Subject to the limitations of our analysis which is mainly numerical, we find some evidence that the behaviour changes in an abrupt manner when the number of non-zero independent terms in the Hamiltonian is exponentially large in $N$. We also study the opposite limit of much reduced randomness obtained in a local version of the SYK model where the number of couplings scales linearly in $N$, and characterise its behaviour. Our investigation suggests that a more complete theoretical analysis of this class of systems will prove quite worthwhile.

Solidarity Coalition : the struggle for common cause
Creators: name: Nelson, Patricia Ann
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis is a case study of the Solidarity Coalition, a social protest movement which united labour and community groups In opposition to right-wing restraint legislation. It considers why this unprecedented extra parliamentary force failed to persuade the government to withdraw the offending legislation and attempts to explain the dominance of the labour agenda in the modest successes it did achieve. Interviews with participants in the Coalition and other significant political actors provide the information used in the analysis of this protest phenomena. The thesis incorporates a detailed study of the evolution of the Coalition and its organizational structure and Internal processes within the context of the larger political system and with reference to theoretical literature concerning protest movements. I argue that the emergence of the Coalition as a diverse and broad based movement in reaction to a right wing attack on the social contract is predictable, however, the outcomes of the protest action are less so. Analysis of the Coalition suggests that organizational contradictions within its structure, external and unforseen circumstances, and the strength of government intransigence were influential factors shaping both the development of the protest movement and the outcomes of its actions. The commitment to common cause, fuelled by moral outrage and espoused by labour and community groups, was not sufficient to withstand the divisive tendencies inherent in the structure of the Coalition, or the Inertia that must be overcome by large groups to achieve collective goods. Labour proved to be the more powerful actor within the Coalition due to its financial and organizational resources and its significant noticeabilIty factor as a member of the CoalItion. I argue that consistent with the theory of the logic of collective action that the labour agenda eventually dominated within the Coalition, influencing the parameters of the settlement achieved, and in part, accounting for the failure of the Coalition to meet Its collective goal of withdrawal of the restraint legislation.

description: The activity patterns of highly developed cognitive systems like the human brain are dominated by autonomous dynamical processes, that is by a self-sustained activity which would be present even in the absence of external sensory stimuli. During normal operation the continuous influx of external stimuli could therefore be completely unrelated to the patterns generated internally by the autonomous dynamical process. Learning of spurious correlations between external stimuli and autonomously generated internal activity states needs therefore to be avoided. We study this problem within the paradigm of transient state dynamics for the internal activity, that is for an autonomous activity characterized by a infinite time-series of transiently stable attractor states. We propose that external stimuli will be relevant during the sensitive periods, the transition period between one transient state and the subsequent semi-stable attractor. A diffusive learning signal is generated unsupervised whenever the stimulus influences the internal dynamics qualitatively. For testing we have presented to the model system stimuli corresponding to the bar-stripes problem and found it capable to perform the required independent-component analysis on its own, all the time being continuously and autonomously active.
Symmetry-Induced Universal Momentum-Transfer Dependencies for Inelastic Neutron Scattering on Anisotropic Spin Clusters

description: Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) is a key method for studying magnetic excitations in spin systems, including molecular spin clusters. The method has significantly advanced in recent years and now permits to probe the scattering intensity as a function of the energy transfer and the momentum-transfer vector Q. It was recently shown that high molecular symmetry facilitates the analysis of spectra. Point-group symmetry imposes selection rules in isotropic as well as anisotropic spin models. Furthermore, the Q-dependence of the INS intensity may be completely determined by the point-group symmetry of the states involved in a transition, thereby affording a clear separation of dynamics (energies, transition strengths) and geometrical features (Q-dependencies). The present work addresses this issue for anisotropic spin models. We identify a number of cases where the Q-dependence is completely fixed by the point-group symmetry. For six- and eight-membered planar spin rings and two polyhedra (the cube and the icosahedron) we tabulate and plot the corresponding powder-averaged universal intensity functions. The outlined formalism straightforwardly applies to other highly-symmetric systems and should be useful for future analyses of INS spectra by focusing on those features that contain information on either spin dynamics or the point-group symmetry of states.

description: The study analyzes how information about diversity is conveyed to young people. It is a question that children, even from an early age, will most likely come face to face with either personally or indirectly, at school or in their neighbourhood. As members of society, albeit currently “junior” members, children need to understand and embrace diversity to become responsible citizens now and in the future. The analysis is based on a corpus of videos from YouTube and adopts an eclectic, qualitative approach to capture the various facets of popularization for children, in both its cognitive and communicative dimensions, also in view of the fact that communication with children needs to be ageappropriate, thus requiring different communicative strategies for different age groups (Kolucki – Lemish 2011). The study also briefly takes into consideration the multimodal elements of the videos that are used to enhance the presentation and understanding of information.

description: Grammar has been slowly reintroduced in British schools thanks to projects such as the New National Curriculum for English, which explicitly include the “understanding of grammar” and the terminology required to discuss linguistic facts as objects of teaching. Many books that focus on grammar metalanguage instruction have appeared. A qualitative analysis of strategies adopted in an effort to produce a selection of materials for young learners (Years 1-6) shows that most publications feature a multimodal popularizing approach, akin to that of other types of scientific knowledge dissemination for children. This suggests that grammar terms are treated like specialized terminology, and that, although no true recontextualization of specialized concepts can be observed, reformulation and adaptation are pervasive in order to meet the needs, tastes and cognitive skills of the young “lay reader”. For this reason, grammar teaching resources can be seen as a special form of popularization of linguistics for kids.

While the increase of the raw resistance noise with decreasing temperature appears to roughly track the previously reported pseudogap temperature for this material, standard noise analysis rather suggests that the additional noise contribution is driven by the proximity of the superconductor-insulator transition.

description: The aim of this study is to investigate popularization practices in museum communication for children. More specifically, the study proposes a multimodal investigation of twenty audio-delivered pictorial descriptions in English specifically designed for children, available in the official website of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in Manhattan. The scripts of the pictorial descriptions were retrieved from the website’s dedicated section and annotated by means of QDA Miner Lite according to a set of codes: ‘type of speaker’, ‘speech’, ‘music’, ‘sounds’, and ‘prosody’. Then, they were analyzed from a multimodal perspective in order to identify key popularization strategies, as well as to investigate how the different semiotic resources are combined to enhance children’s art experience. The results show that the encounter with the artwork is shaped as the child’s own discovery, in which observation skills and critical thinking are challenged by means of several popularization strategies. A key role is played by questions and invitations (to observe, to think, etc.), as well as by soundscape in which speech, music and sounds are meaningfully combined to increase listener involvement.

description: In passage retrieval system, the initial passage retrieval results may be unsatisfactory, which can be refined by a reranking scheme. Existing solutions to passage reranking focus on enriching the interaction between query and each passage separately, neglecting the context among the top-ranked passages in the initial retrieval list. To tackle this problem, we propose a Hybrid and Collaborative Passage Reranking (HybRank) method, which leverages the substantial similarity measurements of upstream retrievers for passage collaboration and incorporates the lexical and semantic properties of sparse and dense retrievers for reranking. Besides, built on off-the-shelf retriever features, HybRank is a plug-in reranker capable of enhancing arbitrary passage lists including previously reranked ones. Extensive experiments demonstrate the stable improvements of performance over prevalent retrieval and reranking methods, and verify the effectiveness of the core components of HybRank.

description: The celebrated Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation describes the kinetic roughening of stochastically growing interfaces. In one dimension, the KPZ equation is exactly solvable and its statistical properties are known to an exquisite degree. Yet recent numerical simulations in the tensionless (or inviscid) limit of the KPZ equation [Phil. Trans. Roy. Soc. A 380, 20210090 (2022); Phys. Rev. E 106, 024802 (2022)] unveiled a new scaling, with a critical dynamical exponent $z=1$ different from the KPZ one $z=3/2$. In this Letter, we show that this scaling is controlled by a fixed point which had been missed so far and which corresponds to an infinite non-linear coupling. Using the functional renormalization group (FRG), we demonstrate the existence of this fixed point and show that it yields $z=1$. We calculate the correlation function and associated scaling function at this fixed point, providing both a numerical solution of the FRG equations within a reliable approximation, and an exact asymptotic form obtained in the limit of large wavenumbers. Both scaling functions accurately match the one from the numerical simulations.

description: Fermions moving in a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice (graphene) have, at low energies, chiral symmetry. Generalizing this construction to four dimensions potentially provides fermions with chiral symmetry and only the minimal fermion doubling demanded by the Nielsen-Ninomiya no-go theorem. The practical usefulness of such fermions hinges on whether the action has a necessary set of discrete symmetries of the lattice. If this is the case, one avoids the generation of dimension three and four operators which require fine tuning. We construct hyperdiamond lattice actions with enough symmetries to exclude fine tuning; however, they produce multiple doublings. The limit where the actions exhibit minimal doubling does not possess the requisite symmetry.

description: We report on Monte-Carlo simulations of the six-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions. In thermal equilibrium such boundary conditions force a fluctuating line separating the disordered region from the perfectly ordered ones. Specifically we study the ice point at which all vertex weights are equal. With high precision the one-point fluctuations of the line are confirmed to be of order $N^{1/3}$ and governed by the Tracy-Widom distribution. Furthermore, the non-universal scaling coefficients are computed for a wide range of interaction strengths. A draft of this paper was completed in January 2019. We improved the presentation and updated references.

description: We investigate the possibility of obtaining a low scale of supersymmetry breaking within the ISS framework using a metastable vacuum. This is achieved by introducing an R-symmetry preserving gravitational coupling of the ISS sector to a relatively low scale inflationary sector. We find the allowed range for the supersymmetry breaking scale, 10^4 GeV < μ< 10^8 GeV, which is low enough to be amenable to gauge supersymmetry breaking mediation. This scenario is based upon a so-called hilltop inflation phase whose initial condition problem is also addressed.

description: Analyzing the properties of complex quantum systems is crucial for further development of quantum devices, yet this task is typically challenging and demanding with respect to required amount of measurements. A special attention to this problem appears within the context of characterizing outcomes of noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices, which produce quantum states with specific properties so that it is expected to be hard to simulate such states using classical resources. In this work, we address the problem of characterization of a boson sampling device, which uses interference of input photons to produce samples of non-trivial probability distributions that at certain condition are hard to obtain classically. For realistic experimental conditions the problem is to probe multi-photon interference with a limited number of the measurement outcomes without collisions and repetitions. By constructing networks on the measurements outcomes, we demonstrate a possibility to discriminate between regimes of indistinguishable and distinguishable bosons by quantifying the structures of the corresponding networks. Based on this we propose a machine-learning-based protocol to benchmark a boson sampler with unknown scattering matrix. Notably, the protocol works in the most challenging regimes of having a very limited number of bitstrings without collisions and repetitions. As we expect, our framework can be directly applied for characterizing boson sampling devices that are currently available in experiments.

description: "How much information about a system $\mathcal{S}$ can one extract from a fragment $\mathcal{F}$ of the environment $\mathcal{E}$ that decohered it?" is the central question of Quantum Darwinism. To date, most answers relied on the quantum mutual information of $\mathcal{SF}$, or on the Holevo bound on the channel capacity of $\mathcal{F}$ to communicate the classical information encoded in $\mathcal{S}$. These are reasonable upper bounds on what is really needed but much harder to calculate -- the accessible information in the fragment $\mathcal{F}$ about $\mathcal{S}$. We consider a model based on imperfect c-not gates where all the above can be computed, and discuss its implications for the emergence of objective classical reality. We find that all relevant quantities, such as the quantum mutual information as well as various bounds on the accessible information exhibit similar behavior. In the regime relevant for the emergence of objective classical reality this includes scaling independent of the quality of the imperfect c-not gates or the size of $\mathcal{E}$, and even nearly independent of the initial state of $\mathcal{S}$.

description: We provide a set of sum rules, using flavour symmetries, relating CP-averaged ratios and CP asymmetries of different neutral and charged B mesons decaying into an eta(') particle together with a pion, a kaon or a second eta('). These sume rules allow us to give a prediction for the B^0-->K^0 eta branching ratio. We also predict a clear sign anti-correlation between the two B^0-->pi^0 (eta,eta') CP-asymmetries, and find a combined constraint on the branching ratios and CP-asymmetries of the three B-->eta(')eta(') decay modes.

Marcel Proust : Sodome et Gomorrhe ou l’inversion dans A la recherche du temps perdu
Creators: name: McGinnis, Reginald James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: En prenant comme point de départ le récit biblique de la destruction des villes de la plaine, le narrateur adopte une voix d'historien, se fait exégète pour fabriquer un mythe d'origine: les descsendants de Sodome. L'allusion à la Genèse a longtemps égaré la critique, laquelle, s'attachant au thème de la culpabilité, n'a pas su voir que la théorie proustienne de l'homosexualité avait un sens plus profond. Cette thèse essaie de réexaminer le thème de la sexualité dans la Recherche et d'analyser le fonctionnement textuel de l'inversion qui est également une métaphore de la structure même de l'oeuvre. Le narrateur proustien décrit un monde dominé par l'incertitude et par l'instabilité où toute chose est susceptible de changer, de s'intervertir. Ainsi, à Gomorrhe, le mensonge tend vers la vérité, et la vérité vers le mensonge, et la situation du narrateur, perpétuellement obligé d'interpréter et de réinterpréter les mensonges d'Albertine, est en ce sens analogue à celle du lecteur du texte proustien - texte dont la signification est toujours fondamentalement et irréductiblement ambiguë.

description: Kubelka-Munk (K-M) theory has been successfully used to estimate pigment concentrations in the pigment mixtures of modern paintings in spectral imagery. In this study the single-constant K-M theory has been utilized for the classification of green pigments in the Selden Map of China, a navigational map of the South China Sea likely created in the early seventeenth century. Hyperspectral data of the map was collected at the Bodleian Library, University of Oxford, and can be used to estimate the pigment diversity, and spatial distribution, within the map. This work seeks to assess the utility of analyzing the data in the K/S space from Kubelka-Munk theory, as opposed to the traditional reflectance domain. We estimate the dimensionality of the data and extract endmembers in the reflectance domain. Then we perform linear unmixing to estimate abundances in the K/S space, and following Bai, et al. (2017), we perform a classification in the abundance space. Finally, due to the lack of ground truth labels, the classification accuracy was estimated by computing the mean spectrum of each class as the representative signature of that class, and calculating the root mean squared error with all the pixels in that class to create a spatial representation of the error. This highlights both the magnitude of, and any spatial pattern in, the errors, indicating if a particular pigment is not well modeled in this approach.

description: The aim of this paper is to explore how modern art is disseminated among children through museum-based websites. As a matter of fact, there are few well-known museums and galleries that have websites specifically designed to enable children to gain insight into the artworks and the protagonists of their collections or to visit their rooms virtually. Specifically, these websites create an interactive learning environment based on the combination of education and entertainment (“edutainment”) and on specific discourse and multimodal strategies that recontextualize art expert discourse for the young lay audience. Thus, the analysis focuses on the popularizing discursive practices used in three museum-based websites for children: Tate Kids, MetKids, and Destination Modern Art: An Intergalactic Journey to MoMA and P.S.1. Tate Kids and MetKids are examined both quantitatively and qualitatively, while Destination Modern Art is investigated only qualitatively, as it partly differs from the other two.
