description: A number of approaches to four-dimensional quantum gravity, such as loop quantum gravity and holography, situate areas as their fundamental variables. However, this choice of kinematics can easily lead to gravitational dynamics peaked on flat spacetimes. We show that this is due to how regions are glued in the gravitational path integral via a discrete spin foam model. We introduce a family of `effective' spin foam models that incorporate a quantum area spectrum, impose gluing constraints as strongly as possible, and leverage the discrete general relativity action to specify amplitudes. These effective spin foam models avoid flatness in a restricted regime of the parameter space. The simpler effective spin foam models will be useful for numerical studies and in the investigation of coarse graining and renormalization.

description: We use a dynamical systems approach to study Bianchi type VI$_0$ cosmological models containing two tilted $γ$-law perfect fluids. The full state space is 11-dimensional, but the existence of a monotonic function simplifies the analysis considerably. We restrict attention to a particular, physically interesting, invariant subspace and find all equilibrium points that are future stable in the full 11-dimensional state space; these are consequently local attractors and serve as late-time asymptotes for an open set of tilted type VI$_0$ models containing two tilted fluids. We find that if one of the fluids has an equation of state parameter $γ<6/5$, the stiffest fluid will be dynamically insignificant at late times. For the value $γ=6/5$ there is a 2-dimensional bifurcation set, and if both fluids are stiffer than $γ=6/5$ both fluids will have extreme tilt asymptotically. We investigate the case in which one fluid is extremely tilting in detail. We also consider the case with one stiff fluid ($γ=2$) close to the initial singularity, and find that the chaotic behaviour which occurs in general Bianchi models with $γ<2$ is suppressed.

description: Identifying physical traits and emotions based on system-sensed physical activities is a challenging problem in the realm of human-computer interaction. Our work contributes in this context by investigating an underlying connection between head movements and corresponding traits and emotions. To do so, we utilize a head movement measuring device called eSense, which gives acceleration and rotation of a head. Here, first, we conduct a thorough study over head movement data collected from 46 persons using eSense while inducing five different emotional states over them in isolation. Our analysis reveals several new head movement based findings, which in turn, leads us to a novel unified solution for identifying different human traits and emotions through exploiting machine learning techniques over head movement data. Our analysis confirms that the proposed solution can result in high accuracy over the collected data. Accordingly, we develop an integrated unified solution for real-time emotion and trait identification using head movement data leveraging outcomes of our analysis.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Chapter One of this Thesis briefly describes the history and production of cis-1,2-dihydrocatechol chiral starting materials and summarises their synthetic attributes as well as providing several examples of their use in natural product synthesis. Chapter Two begins with a succinct review of the structural characteristics and biological properties of the Amaryllidaceae alkaloid ({uF02D})-lycorine and describes several established synthetic approaches to compounds of this type. Thereafter, experimentally-based research leading to the development of a rapid and enantioselective synthesis of the lycorine framework, starting from the cis-1,2-dihydrocatechol and culminating in the syntheses of two lycorine derivatives is described. Additionally, the true structure of the Amaryllidaceae alkaloid nobilisitine A is disclosed. Chapter Three provides a short review of the classic Ullmann bi-aryl synthesis and introduces the Pd[0]-catalysed variant. The synthesis of indoles and quinolones via a Pd[0]-catalysed Ullmann cross-coupling/reductive cyclisation approach is then described. Thereafter, research leading to the efficient synthesis of C-3 monoalkylated oxindoles by such means is presented. Chapter Three also presents the results of methodological studies directed towards improving the efficiency of the Pd[0]-catalysed Ullmann cross-coupling reaction by using highly activated copper powders. This theme is developed further in Chapter Four.
Deterministic all-optical magnetization writing facilitated by non-local transfer of spin angular momentum

description: Ever since the discovery of all-optical magnetization switching (AOS) around a decade ago, this phenomenon of manipulating magnetization using only femtosecond laser pulses has promised a large potential for future data storage and logic devices. Two distinct mechanisms have been observed, where the final magnetization state is either defined by the helicity of many incoming laser pulses, or toggled by a single pulse. What has thus far been elusive, yet essential for applications, is the deterministic writing of a specific magnetization state with a single laser pulse. In this work we experimentally demonstrate such a mechanism by making use of a spin polarized current which is optically generated in a ferromagnetic reference layer, assisting or hindering switching in an adjacent Co/Gd bilayer. We show deterministic writing of an 'up' and 'down' state using a sequence of 1 or 2 pulses, respectively. Moreover, we demonstrate the non-local origin of the effect by varying the magnitude of the generated spin current. Our demonstration of deterministic magnetization writing could provide an essential step towards the implementation of future optically addressable spintronic memory devices.

description: We report the discovery of millisecond oscillations in an X-ray burst from the X-ray transient SAX J1748.9-2021 in the globular cluster NGC 6440. Oscillations at a frequency of 409.7 +/- 0.3 Hz were present in one of nine X-ray bursts observed with the Proportional Counter Array on the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer during the outburst which occurred in 2001. The burst was one of the two dimmest and had the longest duration and decay time. The average peak luminosity of two bursts showing radius expansion is (3.6 +/- 0.4) x 10^38 erg/s, consistent with the Eddington luminosity for a 1.4 solar mass and 10 km radius neutron star burning hydrogen-poor matter. We speculate that the dichotomy observed between sources with burst oscillations at once versus twice the frequency difference of kHz quasiperiodic oscillations in the persistent emission may be related to the magnetic field geometry of the neutron stars.

 Description: —Valves are circular, nearly flat, 4.5–16.5 µm in diameter, with several girdle bands and a well-defined border between the central area and the marginal alveolate zone. Central area with one more or less well-developed depression at the center and a variable number of areolae which are arranged irregularly or in short radial rows. Marginal zone extending a little over 1/3 of the valve radius consists of alveolate striae fascicles, 8–12 in 10 µm, separated by hyaline interfascicles. Striae fascicles are of equal length. They contain 3–4 rows of puncta, 40–60 in 10 µm. Alveoli are simple. Length of alveolar openings is almost equal to the length of striae fascicles. Marginal fultoportulae with 3 satellite pores are located on every costa or every second costa separating alveolar openings internally. A single rimoportula occurs at the marginal ends of one of the costae. Spines are present at the junction of the valve face and mantle at every interfascicle, but they may be broken.

The entropy distribution in clusters: evidence of feedback?

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The entropy of the intracluster medium at large radii has been shown recently to deviate from the self-similar scaling with temperature. Using N-body/hydrodynamic simulations of the LCDM cosmology, we demonstrate that this deviation is evidence that feedback processes are important in generating excess entropy in clusters. While radiative cooling increases the entropy of intracluster gas, resulting in a good match to the data in the centres of clusters, it produces an entropy-temperature relation closer to the self-similar scaling at larger radii. A model that includes feedback from galaxies, however, not only stabilises the cooling rate in the simulation, but is capable of reproducing the observed scaling behaviour both in cluster cores and at large radii. Feedback modifies the entropy distribution in clusters due to its increasing ability at expelling gas from haloes with decreasing mass. The strength of the feedback required, as suggested from our simulations, is consistent with supernova energetics, providing a large fraction of the energy reaches low-density regions and is originally contained within a small mass of gas.

Reionization, SLOAN, and WMAP: is the Picture Consistent?

description: I show that advanced simulations of cosmological reionization are able to fit the observed data on the mean transmitted flux in the hydrogen Lyman-alpha line at z~6. At the same time, posteriori models can be constructed that also produce a large value (20%) for the Thompson scattering optical depth, consistent with the WMAP measurements. Thus, it appears that a consistent picture emerges in which early reionization (as suggested by WMAP) is complete by z~6 in accord with the SLOAN data.

We find significant lateral dispersion of the SAM molecular states and discuss its implications for transport properties of the molecular wire array. We calculate the two photon photoemission spectra and the work function of the SAM on Cu(111) and compare them with the available experimental data. Our results are used to discuss assignments of the observed spectral data and yield predictions for new electronic states due to the monolayer not yet accessed experimentally.

description: It is known that exactly self-dual gauge-field configurations with topological charge |Q|=1 cannot exist on the untwisted continuum 4-torus. We explore the manifestation of this remarkable fact on the lattice 4-torus for SU(3) using advanced techniques for controlling lattice discretization errors, extending earlier work of De Forcrand et. al. for SU(2). We identify three distinct signals for the instability of |Q|=1 configurations, and show that these manifest themselves early in the cooling process, long before the would-be instanton has shrunk to a size comparable to the lattice discretization threshold. These signals do not appear for our |Q|=2 configurations. This indicates that these signals reflect the truly global nature of the instability, rather than local discretization effects. Monte-Carlo generated SU(3) gauge field configurations are cooled to the self-dual limit using an O(a^4)-improved gauge action chosen to have small but positive O(a^6) errors. This choice prevents lattice discretization errors from destroying instantons provided their size exceeds the dislocation threshold of the cooling algorithm. Lattice discretization errors are evaluated by comparing the O(a^4)-improved gauge-field action with an O(a^4)-improved action constructed from the square of an O(a^4)-improved lattice field-strength tensor, thus having different O(a^6) discretization errors. The number of action-density peaks, the instanton size and the topological charge of configurations is monitored. We observe a fluctuation in the total topological charge of |Q|=1 configurations, and demonstrate that the onset of this unusual behavior corresponds with the disappearance of multiple-peaks in the action density. At the same time discretization errors are minimal.

description: Quantum ground-state cooling of macroscopic mechanical resonators is of essential importance to both fundamental physics and applied science. Conventional method of laser cooling is limited by the quantum backaction, which requires mechanical sideband resolved in order to cool to ground state. This work presents an idea to break the quantum backaction limit by engineering intracavity optical squeezing. It gives rise to quantum interference for all the dissipation channels, and under certain circumstances can totally remove the influence of the cavity dissipation and the resultant quantum backaction, with much lower cooling limit irrespective of the sideband resolution. We show that our scheme enables ground-state cooling in the highly unresolved sideband limit and it also works beyond the weak coupling regime, which provides the opportunity for quantum manipulation of macroscopic mechanical systems.

description: Sources of state revenue have major implications on the patterns of state formation. While this issue has been increasingly attracting attention in academia, its impacts have been little explored in aid-dependent contexts, particularly in terms of how the delivery mode of revenue shapes the impacts. Accordingly, this thesis studies Afghan state building in relation to its sources of revenue as it has experienced many experiments since 1747, with tribute, subsidies, and foreign aid playing a striking role in the development of state institutions, and consequently the formation of state-society relations. However, the amount of foreign aid received by Afghanistan in the post-2001 dwarfs that received during any previous period. Although scholars have extensively examined Afghanistan's politics, society and its relations with external powers, very little attention has been directed to the economy, to the sources of state revenue or to the specific relationship between revenue sources and state building. This thesis examines how foreign aid and its delivery mode have affected Afghanistan's state building from 2001 to 2009. It analyses the particular effects of aid on taxation, budget transparency and state-society relations. The relationship between state building and external revenue is a distinct feature of Afghanistan's modern history; the study therefore situates state building in a historical context. This thesis argues that, between 2001 and 2009, externally aided state building reiterated a historical path of dependency, in that foreign aid reinforced building of a rentier state and had mixed effects. Foreign aid has contributed to economic growth, the promotion of education, and the expansion of health services. However, these improvements remained largely dependent on continued foreign aid inflows and were not supplemented with effective institution building and improvements in state-society relations. The inflow of huge amounts of aid outside of Afghanistan's own state mechanisms, together with a concentration on military priorities and a general lack of coordination or coherence amongst the aid donors and the pre-aid socio-political dynamics and institutions, have thus contradicted the initial goal of state building. As a result, the focus of government accountability has shifted from the Afghan legislature and the citizens of Afghanistan to international donors, resulting in poor budget transparency. Tax reforms have also failed to achieve the development of a social contract around taxation, despite the strong desire of Afghanistan's taxpayers for such contract. These factors have further weakened state-society relations.

description: Data science work often requires computing resources that isn’t available to practitioners from disadvantaged backgrounds or located in “data deserts” with low technology access. Cloud computing is an option in such situations but can be costly and not friendly to beginners who don’t know what infrastructure to pick. Most of the data science community thinks of GitHub as only a code storage repository with some management features, but GitHub Actions provide a powerful and often free resource for computing that can perform many data collection and analysis needs. This introduction to GitHub Actions will provide an overview of everything needed for GitHub users to get started applying GitHub Actions to their projects. We’ll see both simple and advanced examples of the YAML format that controls various workflows and how it ties into traditional data science needs, like testing and automation. Time permitting, we’ll also see how these workflows can be used for special applications, such as open source intelligence and machine learning.

description: We report on the XMM-Newton observations of the 143 ms pulsar PSR J0538+2817. We present evidence for the first detections of pulsed X-rays from the source at a frequency which is consistent with the predicted radio frequency. The pulse profile is broad and asymmetric, with a pulse fraction of 18 +/- 3%. We find that the spectrum of the source is well-fit with a blackbody with T^{infty} = (2.12^{+0.04}_{-0.03}) x 10^6 K and N_{H} = 2.5 x 10^21 cm^{-2}. The radius determined from the model fit of 1.68 +/- 0.05 km suggests that the emission is from a heated polar cap. A fit to the spectrum with an atmospheric model reduces the inferred temperature and hence increases the radius of the emitting region, however the pulsar distance determined from the fit is then smaller than the dispersion distance.

description: In this paper we derive locally D-optimal designs for discrete choice experiments based on multinomial probit models. These models include several discrete explanatory variables as well as a quantitative one. The commonly used multinomial logit model assumes independent utilities for different choice options. Thus, D-optimal optimal designs for such multinomial logit models may comprise choice sets, e.g., consisting of alternatives which are identical in all discrete attributes but different in the quantitative variable. Obviously such designs are not appropriate for many empirical choice experiments. It will be shown that locally D-optimal designs for multinomial probit models supposing independent utilities consist of counterintuitive choice sets as well. However, locally D-optimal designs for multinomial probit models allowing for dependent utilities turn out to be reasonable for analyzing decisions using discrete choice studies.

Non-monotonic spontaneous magnetization in a Sznajd-like Consensus Model

Year: 2003

description: Ising or Potts models of ferromagnetism have been widely used to describe locally interacting social or economic systems. We consider a related model, introduced by Sznajd to describe the evolution of consensus in a society. In this model, the opinion or state of any spins can only be changed through the influence of neighbouring pairs of similarly aligned spins. Such pairs can polarize their neighbours. We show that, assuming the global dynamics evolve in a synchronous manner, the two-state Sznajd model exhibits a non-monotonically decreasing overall orientation that has a maximum value when the system is subject to a finite value of noise. Reinterpreting the model in terms of opinions within a society we predict that consensus can be increased by the addition of an appropriate amount of random noise. These features are explained by the presence of islands of complete orientation that are stable in the absence of noise but removed via the presence of added noise.

description: We study the distribution of quantum entanglement for continuous variables among causally disconnected open charts in de Sitter space. It is found that genuine tripartite entanglement is generated among the open chart modes under the influence of curvature of de Sitter space for any nonzero squeezing. Bipartite entanglement is also generated when the curvature is strong enough, even though the observers are separated by the event horizon. This provides a clearcut interpretation of the two-mode squeezing mechanism in the de Sitter space. In addition, the curvature generated genuine tripartite entanglement is found to be less sensitive to the mass parameter than the generated bipartite entanglement. The effects of the curvature of de Sitter space on the generated entanglement become more apparent in the limit of conformal and massless scalar fields.

description: We present transport and thermal data for the quadruple-perovskites MCu3(Ti1-xRux)4O12 where 0 < x < 1. A metal-insulator transition (MIT) occurs for Ru concentrations x~0.75. At the same time, the Cu2+ antiferromagnetic state is destroyed and it's magnetic entropy suppressed by Ru on a 1:1 basis. This implies that each Ru transfers an electron to a Cu ion and thus the MIT correlates with filling the Cu 3d shell. The Cu spin entropy in this strongly correlated electron material provides a unique probe among MIT systems.

description: From the moment of their inception, languages for relational data have been described as sublanguages embedded in a host programming language. Rel is a new relational language whose key design goal is to go beyond this paradigm with features that allow for programming in the large, making it possible to fully describe end to end application semantics. With the new approach we can model the semantics of entire enterprise applications relationally, which helps significantly reduce architecture complexity and avoid the well-known impedance mismatch problem. This paradigm shift is enabled by 50 years of database research, making it possible to revisit the sublanguage/host language paradigm, starting from the fundamental principles. We present the main features of Rel: those that give it the power to express traditional query language operations and those that are designed to grow the language and allow programming in the large.
Improved Secure Efficient Delegated Private Set Intersection

description: Private Set Intersection (PSI) is a vital cryptographic technique used for securely computing common data of different sets. In PSI protocols, often two parties hope to find their common set elements without needing to disclose their uncommon ones. In recent years, the cloud has been playing an influential role in PSI protocols which often need huge computational tasks. In 2017, Abadi et al. introduced a scheme named EO-PSI which uses a cloud to pass on the main computations to it and does not include any public-key operations. In EO-PSI, parties need to set up secure channels beforehand; otherwise, an attacker can easily eavesdrop on communications between honest parties and find private information. This paper presents an improved EO-PSI scheme which has the edge on the previous scheme in terms of privacy and complexity. By providing possible attacks on the prior scheme, we show the necessity of using secure channels between parties. Also, our proposed protocol is secure against passive attacks without having to have any secure channels. We measure the protocol's overhead and show that computational complexity is considerably reduced and also is fairer compared to the previous scheme.

description: We study the dynamics of an electron subjected to a static uniform electric field within a one-dimensional tight-binding model with a slowly varying aperiodic potential. The unbiased model is known to support phases of localized and extended one-electron states separated by two mobility edges. We show that the electric field promotes sustained Bloch oscillations of an initial Gaussian wave packet whose amplitude reflects the band width of extended states. The frequency of these oscillations exhibit unique features, such as a sensitivity to the initial wave packet position and a multimode structure for weak fields, originating from the characteristics of the underlying aperiodic potential.

description: Magnetic topological semimetals, the latest member of topological quantum materials, are attracting extensive attention as they may lead to topologically-driven spintronics. Currently, magnetotransport investigations on these materials are focused on anomalous Hall effect. Here, we report on the magnetoresistance anisotropy of topological semimetal CeBi, which has tunable magnetic structures arising from localized Ce 4f electrons and exhibits both negative and positive magnetoresistances, depending on the temperature. We found that the angle dependence of the negative magnetoresistance, regardless of its large variation with the magnitude of the magnetic field and with temperature, is solely dictated by the field-induced magnetization that is orientated along a primary crystalline axis and flops under the influence of a rotating magnetic field. The results reveal the strong interaction between conduction electrons and magnetization in CeBi. They also indicate that magnetoresistance anisotropy can be used to uncover the magnetic behavior and the correlation between transport phenomena and magnetism in magnetic topological semimetals.
Observing string breaking with Wilson loops

description: An uncontroversial observation of adjoint string breaking is proposed, while measuring the static potential from Wilson loops only. The overlap of the Wilson loop with the broken-string state is small, but non-vanishing, so that the broken-string groundstate can be seen if the Wilson loop is long enough. We demonstrate this in the context of the (2+1)d SU(2) adjoint static potential, using an improved version of the Luscher-Weisz exponential variance reduction. To complete the picture we perform the more usual multichannel analysis with two basis states, the unbroken-string state and the broken-string state (two so-called gluelumps). As by-products, we obtain the temperature-dependent static potential measured from Polyakov loop correlations, and the fundamental SU(2) static potential with improved accuracy. Comparing the latter with the adjoint potential, we see clear deviations from Casimir scaling.
