Crossover between ballistic and diffusive transport: The Quantum Exclusion Process
Creators: name: Eisler, Viktor
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the evolution of a system of free fermions in one dimension under the simultaneous effects of coherent tunneling and stochastic Markovian noise. We identify a class of noise terms where a hierarchy of decoupled equations for the correlation functions emerges. In the special case of incoherent, nearest-neighbour hopping the equation for the two-point functions is solved explicitly. The Green's function for the particle density is obtained analytically and a timescale is identified where a crossover from ballistic to diffusive behaviour takes place. The result can be interpreted as a competition between the two types of conduction channels where diffusion dominates on large timescales.

Development of novel molecularly imprinting chemosensors for the detection of chemical hazards in foods
Creators: name: Feng, Shaolong
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Food chemical contamination remains one of the burdens to public health and may cause significant economic loss to agri-food industry and healthcare. Rapid, selective and sensitive determination of chemical contaminants in foods is of great importance to control food quality and ensure food safety. Traditional sample pretreatment methods have limited selectivity to the analytes and detection techniques (e.g., liquid chromatography-based methods) are usually labor-intensive, time-consuming, and even lack the specificity and/or sensitivity. Therefore, the overall objective of my Ph.D. thesis project was to investigate different chemosensors combining selective molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) with either surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) or fluorescent quantum dots (QDs) to determine chemical hazards in different food matrices. Firstly, a MIPs-SERS/colorimetric dual sensor was developed using MIPs-packed solid phase extraction cartridge to isolate chlorpyrifos from apple juice. Silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) was applied for both colorimetric reaction for rapidly screening and semi-quantification of chlorpyrifos with concentrations ≥5 µg/mL by naked eye and SERS analysis for sensitive determination with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.01 µg/mL based on aggregated AgNPs induced by chlorpyrifos. To further simplify SERS measurement, MIPs was wrapped on the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as a dual functional nanomaterial (i.e., AuNPs@MIPs). A representative herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was selectively separated from milk by AuNPs@MIPs. Without analyte elution step, SERS measurement was directly conducted on AuNPs@MIPs and a LOD of 0.011 µg/mL was achieved for sensing 2,4-D. Furthermore, a quantum dots (QDs) based fluorescence sensor was developed to determinate enrofloxacin in swine muscle. Taking advantage of fluorescence quenching effect of QDs, enrofloxacin was sensitively detected with a LOD of 0.059 µg/mL. An inertial separation microfluidic chip was designed and fabricated to integrate sample pretreatment, analyte separation and detection on the chip. The separation efficiency of the developed microfluidic chip for QDs@MIPs microparticles was as high as 97.7±1.6%. Taken together, MIPs were validated to be robust materials for selective separation and analysis of food chemical hazards. Combining MIPs with different detection tools has great potential for determination of chemical hazards in complex agri-food products.

description: This report provides an introduction to algorithms for fundamental linear algebra problems on various parallel computer architectures, with the emphasis on distributed-memory MIMD machines. To illustrate the basic concepts and key issues, we consider the problem of parallel solution of a nonsingular linear system by Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting. This problem has come to be regarded as a benchmark for the performance of parallel machines. We consider its appropriateness as a benchmark, its communication requirements, and schemes for data distribution to facilitate communication and load balancing. In addition, we describe some parallel algorithms for orthogonal (QR) factorization and the singular value decomposition (SVD).

description: On large-scales, comparable to the horizon, the observable clustering properties of galaxies are affected by various general relativistic effects. To calculate these effects one needs to consistently solve for the metric, densities and velocities in a specific coordinate system or gauge. The method of choice for simulating large-scale structure is numerical N-body simulations which are performed in the Newtonian limit. Even though one might worry that the use of the Newtonian approximation would make it impossible to use these simulations to compute properties on very large-scales, we show that the simulations are still solving the dynamics correctly even for long modes and we give formulas to obtain the position of particles in the conformal Newtonian gauge given the positions computed in the simulation. We also give formulas to convert from the output coordinates of N-body simulations to the observable coordinates of the particles.

description: The moment method is an image analysis technique for sub-pixel estimation of particle positions. The total error in the calculated particle position includes effects of pixel locking and random noise in each pixel. Pixel locking, also known as peak locking, is an artifact where calculated particle positions are concentrated at certain locations relative to pixel edges. We report simulations to gain an understanding of the sources of error and their dependence on parameters the experimenter can control. We suggest an algorithm, and we find optimal parameters an experimenter can use to minimize total error and pixel locking. Simulating a dusty plasma experiment, we find that a sub-pixel accuracy of 0.017 pixel or better can be attained. These results are also useful for improving particle position measurement and particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) using video microscopy, in fields including colloids, biology, and fluid mechanics.

description: We review the notion of symmetry breaking and restoration within the frame of nuclear energy density functional methods. We focus on key differences between wave-function- and energy-functional-based methods. In particular, we point to difficulties encountered within the energy functional framework and discuss new potential constraints on the underlying energy density functional that could make the restoration of broken symmetries better formulated within such a formalism. We refer to Ref.~\cite{duguet10a} for details.

description: Graduate qualification work is devoted to developing a software complex capable of rendering scenes with a large number of vertices. To perform the task, it was made an analysis of existing solutions used in computer graphics. As a result of analysis, the key points of existing solutions were highlighted and because of these points, decisions were made to develop some modules of the complex from scratch. The final product consists of the system for working with object cache, object metadata manipulation by means of graphic interface and visualization system using Forward+ algorithm, which part was optimized by means of computational shader. The complex was created with C++ using the Vulkan graphics library.
Investigating the factors influencing survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: sex-based differences in resuscitation and outcomes
Creators: name: Awad, Emad Mohamad
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: The objective of the studies in this dissertation was to examine the effects of sex on out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) interventions and outcomes, including survival to hospital discharge, one-year survival, and survival with favourable neurological function. Data were obtained from the British Columbia (BC) Cardiac Arrest Registry, Population Data BC, and a multi-centre clinical trial carried out in the USA and Canada. Analysis methods comprised logistic regression, survival analysis, and multilevel analysis. The first study was an analysis of a cohort of 7,398 adults with OHCA in BC and showed that in patients who did not achieve prehospital ROSC, males had 1.2-fold greater odds of being transported to hospital compared to females (95% CI 1.04, 1.37). The second study was a retrospective analysis of 8,115 OHCA cases in BC and revealed that females had greater adjusted odds of ROSC (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.15 – 1.42, p <0.001), but not survival to hospital discharge (OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.96 – 1.35, p = 0.129). The third study was an analysis of linked data from various clinical databases in BC and revealed no significant difference in one-year survival by sex (HR males vs. females 1.14, 95% CI 0.72 – 1.81, p = 0.57). The fourth study was a retrospective analysis of data (N=22,416) from the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium multi-center randomized controlled trial. The study identified initial shockable rhythm and hypothermia management as the strongest predictors of favourable neurological outcome. Further analysis showed that males derived significantly greater benefit from hypothermia management and initial shockable rhythms than females. The fifth study was based on 23,725 cases from the trial mentioned above. The cohort was stratified into four groups by age and sex: younger females (i.e. premenopausal), older females, younger males, and older males. The study found no difference in neurological outcome between younger males and younger females (OR 0.95, 95% CI 0.69 – 1.32, p = 0.75). The result suggests premenopausal females had no advantage with respect to good brain function. These findings highlight the independent effect of sex on short and long-term survival, and the interaction effect of age and sex on neurological outcome.

description: Here, we theoretically predict that the series of Pb-based layered chalcogenides, Pb$_n$Bi$_2$Se$_{n+3}$ and Pb$_n$Sb$_2$Te$_{n+3}$, are possible new candidates for topological insulators. As $n$ increases, the phase transition from a topological insulator to a band insulator is found to occur between $n=2$ and 3 for both series. Significantly, among the new topological insulators, we found a bulk band gap of 0.40eV in PbBi$_2$Se$_4$ which is one of the largest gap topological insulators, and that Pb$_2$Sb$_2$Te$_5$ is located in the immediate vicinity of the topological phase boundary, making its topological phase easily tunable by changing external parameters such as lattice constants. Due to the three-dimensional Dirac cone at the phase boundary, massless Dirac fermions also may be easily accessible in Pb$_2$Sb$_2$Te$_5$.

description: In a case study conducted in October 2014 for the California Department of Transportation, Tian and his students helped retime a 1.7-mile segment of a signalized arterial using SMRT. The study revealed that the overall travel time savings per day is about 560 hours; fuel savings per day is about 600 gallons; the total annual savings in delay and fuel is then about $3.2 million; the average annual savings per traveler is about $170. This yields a benefit-cost ratio of about 130:1. Additionally, there is an estimated annual reduction of about 22 tons of emissions, including carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds, due to the improved signal coordination.

description: Extending recent work of others, we provide effective bounds on the family of all elliptic curves and one-parameter families of elliptic curves modulo p (for p prime tending to infinity) obeying the Sato-Tate Law. We present two methods of proof. Both use the framework of Murty-Sinha; the first involves only knowledge of the moments of the Fourier coefficients of the L-functions and combinatorics, and saves a logarithm, while the second requires a Sato-Tate law. Our purpose is to illustrate how the caliber of the result depends on the error terms of the inputs and what combinatorics must be done.

description: The subject of this work is the patrolling of an environment with the aid of a team of autonomous agents. We consider both the design of open-loop trajectories with optimal properties, and of distributed control laws converging to optimal trajectories. As performance criteria, the refresh time and the latency are considered, i.e., respectively, time gap between any two visits of the same region, and the time necessary to inform every agent about an event occurred in the environment. We associate a graph with the environment, and we study separately the case of a chain, tree, and cyclic graph. For the case of chain graph, we first describe a minimum refresh time and latency team trajectory, and we propose a polynomial time algorithm for its computation. Then, we describe a distributed procedure that steers the robots toward an optimal trajectory. For the case of tree graph, a polynomial time algorithm is developed for the minimum refresh time problem, under the technical assumption of a constant number of robots involved in the patrolling task. Finally, we show that the design of a minimum refresh time trajectory for a cyclic graph is NP-hard, and we develop a constant factor approximation algorithm.

description: We give a simple condition for a linear recurrence (mod 2^w) of degree r to have the maximal possible period 2^(w-1).(2^r-1). It follows that the period is maximal in the cases of interest for pseudo-random number generation, i.e. for 3-term linear recurrences defined by trinomials which are primitive (mod 2) and of degree r > 2. We consider the enumeration of certain exceptional polynomials which do not give maximal period, and list all such polynomials of degree less than 15.

[HECAT] D2.1 Selecting the suitable job quality items in profiling and job matching algorithms for public employment services

description: Abstract This report takes its starting point in the lessons learned from first generation statistical profiling systems in Public Employment Services (PES) and the sociological vision of labour market integration and good-quality work. Commonly job quality is not considered in statistical profiling, instead exit to any type of employment is modelled. We discuss and operationalize the multi-dimensional concept of job quality with a view on whether and how job quality items can be integrated into a tool computing the probability of exit into good jobs. Importantly, we also consider whether such items can be used in more advanced visualization platforms providing the unemployed and job seekers a snapshot of their labour market options. The aim of the report is thus to translate the findings from work package 1 on the sociological-led user vision into job quality dimensions and items (variables) that can be measured either with register data or with European survey data and which can then be integrated in the development of our HECAT platform in work package 3.
A continuous performance improvement framework for the management of aquatic centres in cold regions
Creators: name: Saleem, Sana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Recently, the use of indoor swimming pools and aquatic centres (ACs) have become very popular in cold regions of the world like Canada, which are serving thousands of visitors year-round. ACs provide opportunities for both recreation and physical activity, which potentially improves the quality of life and contribute towards community development. However, these useful facilities face serious performance-related challenges. Deteriorated water quality through various sources, especially the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) has increased the associated health issues. Moreover, an unhealthy indoor environment, high water and energy demands, high capital and operational costs, and common customer dissatisfaction are also major performance issues, which are challenging the sustainability of AC facilities. The management of AC functions with no impetus to assess or improve their facility performance in the absence of a structured performance assessment process. The present research is the first systematic effort for the development of a continuous performance improvement (CPI) framework to holistically assess, benchmark and improve the performance of ACs. This study is completed in four phases. Phase 1 proposed the CPI framework, identified and selected performance indicators (PIs). Phase 2 investigated the combined effects of design and management factors on DBPs concentrations using empirical models. Phase 3 developed a performance benchmarking model for self and comparative assessment. Phase 4 developed an optimization model to identify optimum levels of the operational process. The CPI framework adopted in this study holistically covers all the processes and operations of an AC facility. Further, the results of this research help in decision-making at different levels of the organizational hierarchy AC facilities. It can be used to infer the performance of the facility at multilevel (facility level, key components level and subcomponents level). The main outcome of this research is the development of the best management practices to improve performance and control DBPs in the indoor swimming environment and mitigate the potential human health risk. This study will assist AC managers in allocating available resources for both the short-term (e.g., efficient response to complaints) and long-term (e.g., replacing failed manually operated fixtures with the sensor-operated ones) improvement actions. This research will help the ACs in achieving the goal of sustainable development of recreational facilities in cold regions of the world.

description: This scientific work describes the main methods of activating educational and cognitive activity, closely related to the use of game technologies in the learning process, role-playing as the means of teaching Russian as a foreign language and its influence on the modern educational process. The main features of the role-playing games usage in terms of teaching foreign students of humanities are revealed. The analysis of methodological developments of role-playing games for basic (level A2) and threshold (level B1) levels of language proficiency is carried out. As a part of the practical research, methodological recommendations on the organization of role-playing games for foreign students of humanities were developed.

description: We announce the discovery of the transiting planet CoRoT-13b. Ground based follow-up in CFHT and IAC80 confirmed CoRoT's observations. The mass of the planet was measured with the HARPS spectrograph and the properties of the host star were obtained analyzing HIRES spectra from the Keck telescope. It is a hot Jupiter-like planet with an orbital period of 4.04 days, 1.3 Jupiter masses, 0.9 Jupiter radii, and a density of 2.34 g cm-3. It orbits a G0V star with Teff=5945K, M*=1.09 Msun, R*=1.01 Rsun, solar metallicity, a lithium content of +1.45 dex, and an estimated age between 0.12 and 3.15 Gyr. The lithium abundance of the star is consistent with its effective temperature, activity level, and age range derived from the stellar analysis. The density of the planet is extreme for its mass. It implies the existence of an amount of heavy elements with a mass between about 140 and 300 Mearth.
