On the statistical-mechanical meaning of the Bousso bound

description: The Bousso entropy bound, in its generalized form, is investigated for the case of perfect fluids at local thermodynamic equilibrium and evidence is found that the bound is satisfied if and only if a certain local thermodynamic property holds, emerging when the attempt is made to apply the bound to thin layers of matter. This property consists in the existence of an ultimate lower limit l* to the thickness of the slices for which a statistical-mechanical description is viable, depending l* on the thermodynamical variables which define the state of the system locally. This limiting scale, found to be in general much larger than the Planck scale (so that no Planck scale physics must be necessarily invoked to justify it), appears not related to gravity and this suggests that the generalized entropy bound is likely to be rooted on conventional flat-spacetime statistical mechanics, with the maximum admitted entropy being however actually determined also by gravity. Some examples of ideal fluids are considered in order to identify the mechanisms which can set a lower limit to the statistical-mechanical description and these systems are found to respect the lower limiting scale l*. The photon gas, in particular, appears to seemingly saturate this limiting scale and the consequence is drawn that for systems consisting of a single slice of a photon gas with thickness l*, the generalized Bousso bound is saturated. It is argued that this seems to open the way to a peculiar understanding of black hole entropy: if an entropy can meaningfully (i.e. with a second law) be assigned to a black hole, the value A/4 for it (where A is the area of the black hole) is required simply by (conventional) statistical mechanics coupled to general relativity.

description: For many driven-nonequilibrium systems, the probability distribution functions of magnitude and recurrence-time of large events follow a powerlaw indicating a strong temporal correlation. In this paper we argue why these probability distribution functions are ubiquitous in driven nonequilibrium systems, and we derive universal scaling laws connecting the magnitudes, recurrence-time, and spatial intervals of large events. The relationships between the scaling exponents have also been studied. We show that the ion-channel current in Voltage-dependent Anion Channels obeys the universal scaling law.

description: Αυτή η διατριβή εξετάζει τις προόδους που έχουν γίνει στη χρήση των φυσικών αντιοξειδωτικών και αντιμικροβιακών ουσιών σε διάφορες μήτρες πολυμερών με σκοπό την παραγωγή ενεργών συσκευασιών με βελτιωμένες ιδιότητες. Όλα τα πολυμερή τα οποία μελετήθηκαν, συνετέθησαν με βάση τις πολυμερικές μήτρες εμπλουτισμένες με φυσικά αντιοξειδωτικά - αντιμικροβιακά - και συγκεκριμένα τρία βασικά αντιοξειδωτικά που βρίσκονται στα αιθέρια έλαια και αλλού (θυμόλη, ευγενόλη και καρβακρόλη) - χαρακτηρίστηκαν πλήρως και αναλύθηκαν. Σε όλες τις περιπτώσεις που μελετήθηκαν, παρατηρήθηκε ότι η προσθήκη του φυσικού αντιοξειδωτικού – αντιμικροβιακού συστατικού έχει επηρεάσει τα χαρακτηριστικά της πολυμερικής μήτρας, και ιδιαίτερα τη θερμική της αποικοδόμηση. Η μελέτη των θερμικών ιδιοτήτων των πολυμερών έδειξαν μείωση της θερμοκρασίας υαλώδους μετάπτωσης, ευνοώντας την πλαστικοποίηση του πολυμερούς. Ακόμη κάποιες μικρές διαφορές παρατηρήθηκαν στις μηχανικές ιδιότητες των νέων πολυμερικών υλικών, ιδιαίτερα στην ελαστικότητα. Επιπλέον, τα αντιοξειδωτικά / αντιμικροβιακά συστατικά που προστέθηκαν έδειξαν καλή κατανομή εντός της πολυμερικής μήτρας, ενώ η ελεγχόμενη έκλυση τους από το πολυμερές ήταν δυνατή στις περισσότερες των περιπτώσεων. Συμπερασματικά, μπορεί να λεχθεί ότι σύμφωνα με τα αποτελέσματα από τη μελέτη αυτή, η προσθήκη φυσικών αντιμικροβιακών-αντιοξειδωτικών σε πολυμερικές μήτρες, έχει ως αποτέλεσμα οι ενεργές συσκευασίες να παρουσιάζουν νέες και βελτιωμένες ιδιότητες, ενώ τα πρόσθετα δεν χάνουν τις ευεργετικές τους επιδράσεις .
description: This thesis examines the advances that have been made in use of natural antioxidants and antimicrobials in various polymer matrixes in order to produce polymers with improved properties. All polymers that were studied, were synthesized based on polymeric matrices enriched with natural antioxidants - antimicrobials (thymol, eugenol and carvacrol) and were fully characterized and analyzed. In all cases studied, it was observed that the addition of the natural antioxidant - antimicrobial somehow have affected the properties of the polymeric matrix, and particularly thermal degradation. The study of thermal properties of the polymers showed a reduction of glass transition temperature, favoring the plasticization of the polymer. Even small differences were observed in the mechanical properties of the novel polymeric materials, especially in elasticity. Furthermore, the antioxidants/antimicrobials that were added showed good distribution in the polymer matrix while their controlled release from the polymer was also possible. In conclusion, it can be said that according to the results from this study when adding natural antimicrobials/antioxidants in polymeric matrixes, they exhibit new and improved properties while additives do not lose their beneficial effects.
Reduction of the RPA eigenvalue problem and a generalized Cholesky decomposition for real-symmetric matrices
Creators: name: Papakonstantinou, P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The particular symmetry of the random-phase-approximation (RPA) matrix has been utilized in the past to reduce the RPA eigenvalue problem into a symmetric-matrix problem of half the dimension. The condition of positive definiteness of at least one of the matrices A+-B has been imposed (where A and B are the submatrices of the RPA matrix) so that, e.g., its square root can be found by Cholesky decomposition. In this work, alternative methods are pointed out to reduce the RPA problem to a real (not symmetric, in general) problem of half the dimension, with the condition of positive definiteness relaxed. One of the methods relies on a generalized Cholesky decomposition, valid for non-singular real symmetric matrices. The algorithm is described and a corresponding routine in C is given.

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Machine translation (MT) systems, especially when designed for an industrial setting, are trained with general parallel data derived from the Web. Thus, their style is typically driven by word/structure distribution coming from the average of many domains. In contrast, MT customers want translations to be specialized to their domain, for which they are typically able to provide text samples. We describe an approach for customizing MT systems on specific domains by selecting data similar to the target customer data to train neural translation models. We build document classifiers using monolingual target data, e.g., provided by the customers to select parallel training data from Web crawled data. Finally, we train MT models on our automatically selected data, obtaining a system specialized to the target domain. We tested our approach on the benchmark from WMT-18 Translation Task for News domains enabling comparisons with state-of-the-art MT systems. The results show that our models outperform the top systems while using less data and smaller models.

RX J1856.5-3754 as a possible Strange Star candidate

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: RX J1856.5-3754 has been proposed as a strange star candidate due to its very small apparent radius measured from its X-ray thermal spectrum. However, its optical emission requires a much larger radius and thus most of the stellar surface must be cold and undetectable in X-rays. In the case the star is a neutron star such a surface temperature distribution can be explained by the presence of a strong toroidal field in the crust (Perez-Azorin et al. 2006, Geppert et al. 2006). We consider a similar scenario for a strange star with a thin baryonic crust to determine if such a magnetic field induced effect is still possible.

description: We introduce a Content-based Document Alignment approach (CDA), an efficient method to align multilingual web documents based on content in creating parallel training data for machine translation (MT) systems operating at the industrial level. CDA works in two steps: (i) projecting documents of a web domain to a shared multilingual space; then (ii) aligning them based on the similarity of their representations in such space. We leverage lexical translation models to build vector representations using TF-IDF. CDA achieves performance comparable with state-of-the-art systems in the WMT-16 Bilingual Document Alignment Shared Task benchmark while operating in multilingual space. Besides, we created two web-scale datasets to examine the robustness of CDA in an industrial setting involving up to 28 languages and millions of documents. The experiments show that CDA is robust, cost-effective, and is significantly superior in (i) processing large and noisy web data and (ii) scaling to new and low-resourced languages.

Hegel
neo-Kantian reading of The Structure of scientific revolutions

description: Η παρούσα μεταπτυχιακή διπλωματική εργασία αρχικώς παραθέτει την επιστημολογική θεωρία του Thomas Kuhn, όπως αυτή παρουσιάστηκε στο έργο του H δομή των Επιστημονικών Επαναστάσεων. Μετά την εξοικείωση με τους όρους της κουνιανής θεωρίας προχωρούμε στους προβληματισμούς που προκύπτουν από το κουνιανό πρίσμα των επαναστατικών επιστημονικών ανατροπών, οι οποίες ιστορικά καθορίζουν την πορεία της επιστημονικής γνώσης. Συγκεκριμένα εξετάζουμε την κουνιανή αμφισβήτηση της αλήθειας και της προόδου της επιστημονικής γνώσης, όσο και τη θέση του επιστήμονα και της επιστημονικής κοινότητας στην κατάκτηση της γνώσης. Καθώς το έργο του Kuhn στηρίχθηκε κυρίως στην ιστορική τεκμηρίωση και χαρακτηριζόταν από έλλειψη σαφούς φιλοσοφικού προσανατολισμού, οι σχολιαστές του προσπάθησαν να το εντάξουν του σε ένα σαφέστερο φιλοσοφικό πλαίσιο. Η εργασία παραθέτει την νεοκαντιανή ανάγνωση της Δομής από τον Hoyningen-Huene και ελέγχει την κουνιανή θεωρία για την παρουσία εγελιανών στοιχείων, κυριότερα των οποίων είναι ο ιστορικός χαρακτήρας του επιστημονικού λόγου και η διαλεκτική πορεία της επιστημονικής γνώσης.
description: Initially, this postgraduate thesis presents the epistemological theory of Thomas Kuhn, as introduced in his book The Structure of Scientific Revolutions. After getting acquainted with the terms of the kuhnian theory, we examine the concerns arising from the kuhnian standpoint, concerning the revolutionary scientific subversions, which historically determine the course of scientific knowledge. Specifically, we focus on the kuhnian questioning of the truth and the progress of scientific knowledge, as well as on the role of the scientist and the scientific community in the acquisition of knowledge. Since Kuhn's work was based mainly on historical documentation and was characterized by a lack of clear philosophical orientation, his commentators tried to integrate his theory in a more distinct philosophical frame. Therefore, this thesis refers to the neo-Kantian reading of Kuhn’s theory, as this was articulated by Hoyningen-Huene. Also, throughout the paper, we examine the kuhnian theory for Hegelian elements, the main ones being the historical character of scientific reason and the dialectic process of scientific knowledge.

description: Motivation: Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a fast emerging technology allowing global transcriptome profiling on the single cell level. Cell type identification from scRNA-seq data is a critical task in a variety of research such as developmental biology, cell reprogramming, and cancers. Typically, cell type identification relies on human inspection using a combination of prior biological knowledge (e.g. marker genes and morphology) and computational techniques (e.g. PCA and clustering). Due to the incompleteness of our current knowledge and the subjectivity involved in this process, a small amount of cells may be subject to mislabelling.

Results: Here, we propose a semi-supervised learning framework, named scReClassify, for 'post hoc' cell type identification from scRNA-seq datasets. Starting from an initial cell type annotation with potentially mislabelled cells, scReClassify first performs dimension reduction using PCA and next applies a semi-supervised learning method to learn and subsequently reclassify cells that are likely mislabelled initially to the most probable cell types. By using both simulated and real-world experimental datasets that profiled various tissues and biological systems, we demonstrate that scReClassify is able to accurately identify and reclassify misclassified cells to their correct cell types. We implemented scReClassify as an R package. It can be used for scRNA-seq data as a post hoc cell type classification tool to fine-tune cell type annotations generated by any cell type classification procedure.

Many recent investigations deal with the control theory in such model. In this article, stochastic models are mathematically and physically justified as limit of concrete discrete procedures called "Quantum Repeated Measurements". In particular, this gives a rigorous justification of the Poisson and diffusion approximation in quantum measurement theory with control. Furthermore we investigate some examples using control in quantum mechanics.

The journal of Roberto da Sanseverino (1417-1487) : a study on navigation and seafaring in the fifteenth century
Creators: name: Vidoni, Tullio
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Roberto da Sanseverino went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in 1458. He travelled from Venice to Jaffa on a galley and made his return, from Acre to Ancona, on a three-masted sailing ship. During both voyages he kept very accurate logs of distances, courses and wind directions. He described the sails employed for different modes of sailing and other activities pertaining to the safe operation of the vessels. These logs are contained in Sanseverino's diary of his pilgrimage and are an essential part of an original manuscript kept at the University of Bologna. This diary is the first documentation, and the only one known to exist up to this time, which presents a complete description of the methods employed by medieval shipmasters to navigate and handle their ships overlong voyages. The accuracy and reliability of the numeric data and of the other facts contained in the logs are such that, among other unusual findings, they make it possible to deter-mine the length of the Venetian sea mile, the angles of tack of medieval ships to windward and the speeds attainable under various conditions of sailing. Other original descriptions encompass the handling of ships in anchorages and some of the technical considerations that were essential to ensure ship seaworthiness under different conditions of cargo. Further reflections on all these data make it possible to arrive at certain conclusions about the economic constraints of sea ventures in different seasons of the year.

XThinking Manifesto the Symbiotic Crossing Between Human and Machine

description: XThinking is a philosophical and practical concept that describes a symbiotic, conscious, and critical mode of thought emerging from the collaboration between humans and artificial intelligences. Unlike automatic or purely assistive uses of AI, XThinking proposes a meaningful alliance: a pact where the machine is a co-author, and the human remains the symbolic conductor of the cognitive process.

Inspired by the foundations of the XChronos project, ontological idealism, and the ethics of symbolic time, XThinking is both a methodology and an ethical stance: to think with AI, never through it. It manifests as a reflective practice, a symbolic aesthetic, and a crossing between worlds — technological, subjective, and poetic.

This manifesto presents XThinking as a new path for cognitive and existential presence in the 21st century, pointing toward an expanded relationship between consciousness and algorithmic language.
title: Kollaboration im Zweiten Weltkrieg und im Holocaust. Ein analytisches Konzept
Creators: name: Rossolinski-Liebe, Grzegorz
Publisher: name: ZZF - Centre for Contemporary History: Docupedia-Zeitgeschichte
Year: 2019

description: Die Kollaboration mit dem NS-Regime fand in allen besetzten, verbündeten und neutralen Ländern statt. Sie war ein transnationales Phänomen, das zur Ermordung der europäischen Juden maßgeblich beitrug bzw. sie überhaupt in diesem Ausmaß ermöglichte. Die Erforschung der Kollaboration stellt daher eine zentrale Aufgabe der Geschichtswissenschaft dar, die bis heute nur ansatzweise realisiert wurde. In diesem Beitrag werden Methoden und Fragestellungen der Kollaborationsforschung präsentiert, die keine Unterdisziplin oder ein Sonderforschungsbereich der Besatzungsgeschichte ist, sondern ein eigenständiges Forschungsfeld. Die Kollaborationsforschung legt die agency der nichtdeutschen Akteure offen und zeigt, wie sie die Geschichte der Besatzung, des Holocaust und des Zweiten Weltkriegs aktiv mitgestalteten.
Signature of topological non-trivial band structure in Ta$_{3}$SiTe$_{6}$

description: The study of topology protected electronic properties is a fascinating topic in present day condensed matter physics research. New topological materials are frequently being proposed and explored through various experimental techniques. Ta$_{3}$SiTe$_{6}$ is a newly predicted topological semimetal with fourfold degenerate nodal-line crossing in absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and an hourglass Dirac loop, when SOC is included. Recent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study in this material, has also confirmed Dirac like dispersions and two nodal-lines near the Fermi energy, protected by nonsymmorphic glide mirror symmetry. In this work, we present the detailed magnetotransport properties of single crystalline Ta$_{3}$SiTe$_{6}$. A nonsaturating magnetoresistance has been observed. Hall measurements reveal hole type charge carriers with high carrier density and a moderate value of carrier mobility. Furthermore, we report a robust planar Hall effect, which persists up to high temperatures. These results validate the nontrivial nature of the electronic band structure.

Ising spin glass models versus Ising models: an effective mapping at high temperature I. General result

description: We show that, above the critical temperature, if the dimension D of a given Ising spin glass model is sufficiently high, its free energy can be effectively expressed through the free energy of a related Ising model. When, in a large sense, D is infinite, in the paramagnetic phase and on its boundary the mapping is exact. In this limit the method provides a general and simple rule to obtain exactly the upper phase boundaries. We provide even simple effective rules to find crossover surfaces and correlation functions. We apply the mapping to several spin glass models.

GRB 990413: Insight into the thermal phase evolution

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: GRB 990413 shows a very hard spectrum (with a low energy spectral component F(E) \propto E^{2.49}) which is well represented by a black body model with characteristic temperature ~70 keV. It thus belongs to the subset of GRBs which might be revealing a thermal phase. We find that the temperature/luminosity evolution is consistent with that found in the other ``thermal'' GRBs. The time resolved spectral analysis indicates the presence of a second non--thermal component contributing (for about 1 s) up to 30 per cent of the total flux. Differently from the other thermal GRBs, GRB 990413 shows significantly high level of variability and the evolution of the thermal/non--thermal spectral components is strongly correlated with the flux variations. This GRB thus offers the unique opportunity to test the standard fireball photospheric and internal shock phases and their reciprocal influence. GRB 990413 was not selected on the basis of its spectrum and thus hints to the possibility that this early behavior might be more common than currently known.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η μελέτη και αξιολόγηση μορφολογικών χαρακτηριστικών και επιφανειακών ανωμαλιών, γνήσιων και πλαστών μηχανοκίνητων μικροεργαλείων ProTaper Universal με παρατήρηση στο ηλεκτρονικό μικροσκόπιο σάρωσης (SEM) και με τη μέθοδο της φασματοσκοπίας ενέργειας διασποράς ακτίνων-Χ (EDS). Χρησιμοποιήθηκαν τέσσερα σετ γνήσιων (SX-F3) και τέσσερα σετ (SX-F3) πλαστών μικροεργαλείων ProTaper Universal (24 γνήσια και 24 πλαστά μικροεργαλεία συνολικά), τα οποία καθαρίστηκαν σε λουτρό υπερήχων. Κάθε συσκευασία μικροεργαλείων ήταν καινούρια και σφραγισμένη και είχε ίδιο αριθμό παρτίδας (LOT number) με τις υπόλοιπες. Λήφθηκαν φωτογραφίες στο SEM και χρησιμοποιήθηκαν για μέτρηση των διαμέτρων των μικροεργαλείων με τη βοήθεια ειδικού λογισμικού ανάλυσης εικόνων. Ακολούθησε σημειακή ανάλυση EDS σε κάθε μικροεργαλείο. Τα πλαστά μικροεργαλεία παρουσίασαν ποικιλία σχεδιαστικών ελαττωμάτων και επιφανειακών ανωμαλιών όπως μικρορωγμές, πόρους και μεταλλικές εναποθέσεις αποτελούμενες κυρίως από χαλκό, ψευδάργυρο, πυρίτιο, σίδηρο και θείο σε σχέση με τα γνήσια, εκ των οποίων μόνο τρία μικροεργαλεία εμφάνισαν ίχνη άνθρακα και οξυγόνου. Η παρουσία των προαναφερθέντων ανωμαλιών σε καινούρια, αχρησιμοποίητα πλαστά μηχανοκίνητα μικροεργαλεία, πιθανώς οδηγεί σε αύξηση της συχνότητας εμφάνισης ιατρογενών λαθών κατά τη κλινική τους χρήση.
description: The aim of the present thesis was to examine and evaluate, in vitro, the morphological characteristics and surface irregularities of engine-driven original and counterfeit ProTaper Universal rotary instrument files by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). Four assortment sets (SX-F3) of original ProTaper Universal files and four assortment sets (SX-F3) of counterfeit ProTaper Universal files (24 original and 24 counterfeit instruments) were ultrasonically cleaned and analyzed by SEM and EDS. Both original and counterfeit assortment packages were new, sealed and had same LOT numbers. Secondary electron images were acquired and stored in TIFF format. Images were used to examine surface morphology and to measure size diameters of original and counterfeit files. EDS spot analysis was performed in every instrument. Counterfeit instruments presented a significant degree of several design flaws and surface irregularities such as pits, pores and dimples, with metal deposits consisting mainly of Cu, ZN, Si, Fe and S when compared to the original files with minimum deposits of C and O. The presence of the aforementioned defects on new, unused counterfeit rotary instruments may lead to an increased frequency of procedural errors during their usage in clinical practice.
