Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)

description: We present boundary-integral equations for Maxwell-type problems in a differential-form setting. Maxwell-type problems are governed by the differential equation $(δ\mathrm{d}-k^2)ω= 0$, where $k\in\mathbb{C}$ holds, subject to some restrictions. This problem class generalizes $\textbf{curl}\,\textbf{curl}$- and $\mathrm{div}\,\textbf{grad}$-types of problems in three dimensions. The goal of the paper is threefold: 1) Establish the Sobolev-space framework in the full generality of differential-form calculus on a smooth manifold of arbitrary dimension and with Lipschitz boundary. 2) Introduce integral transformations and fundamental solutions, and derive a representation formula for Maxwell-type problems. 3) Leverage the power of differential-form calculus to gain insight into properties and inherent symmetries of boundary-integral equations of Maxwell-type.

description: Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, data suggested that males had a higher risk of developing severe disease and that androgen deprivation therapy might be associated with protection. Combined with the fact that TMPRSS2 (transmembrane serine protease 2), a host entry factor for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, was a well-known androgen-regulated gene, this led to an upsurge of research investigating androgen receptor (AR)-targeting drugs. Proxalutamide, an AR antagonist, was shown in initial clinical studies to benefit COVID-19 patients; however, further validation is needed as one study was retracted. Due to continued interest in proxalutamide, which is in phase 3 trials, we examined its ability to impact SARS-CoV-2 infection and downstream inflammatory responses. Proxalutamide exerted similar effects as enzalutamide, an AR antagonist prescribed for advanced prostate cancer, in decreasing AR signaling and expression of TMPRSS2 and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), the SARS-CoV-2 receptor. However, proxalutamide led to degradation of AR protein, which was not observed with enzalutamide. Proxalutamide inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection with an IC50 value of 97 nM, compared to 281 nM for enzalutamide. Importantly, proxalutamide inhibited infection by multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants and synergized with remdesivir. Proxalutamide protected against cell death in response to tumor necrosis factor alpha and interferon gamma, and overall survival of mice was increased with proxalutamide treatment prior to cytokine exposure. Mechanistically, we found that proxalutamide increased levels of NRF2, an essential transcription factor that mediates antioxidant responses, and decreased lung inflammation. These data provide compelling evidence that proxalutamide can prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection and cytokine-induced lung damage, suggesting that promising clinical data may emerge from ongoing phase 3 trials.
Zero temperature dynamics of the Hubbard model in infinite dimensions: A local moment approach
Creators: name: Barman, Himadri
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The local moment approach (LMA) has presented itself as a powerful semi-analytical quantum impurity solver (QIS) in the context of the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) for the periodic Anderson model and it correctly captures the low energy Kondo scale for the single impurity model, having excellent agreement with the Bethe ansatz and numerical renormalization group results. However, the most common correlated lattice model, the Hubbard model, has not been explored well within the LMA+DMFT framework beyond the insulating phase. Here in our work, within the framework we attempt to complete the phase diagram of the single band Hubbard model at zero temperature. Our formalism is generic to any particle filling and can be extended to finite temperature. We contrast our results with another QIS, namely the iterated perturbation theory (IPT) and show that the second spectral moment sum-rule improves better as the Hubbard interaction strength grows stronger in LMA, whereas it severely breaks down after the Mott transition in IPT. We also show that, in the metallic phase, the low-energy scaling of the spectral density leads to universality which extends to infinite frequency range at infinite correlation strength (strong-coupling). At large interaction strength, the off half-filling spectral density forms a pseudogap near the Fermi level and filling-controlled Mott transition occurs as one approaches the half-filling. Finally we study optical properties and find universal features such as absorption peak position governed by the low-energy scale and a doping independent crossing point, often dubbed as the "isosbestic point" in experiments.

description: When crises like the COVID-19 pandemic arise and leave devastating impacts on family businesses, the economy, and our world at large, there is an appeal to organizational communication scholars to not only explore the impact of these crises on organizations, but to also understand what can contribute to building resilience in the face of these crises. Given that coping with others is fundamentally a communicative behavior that can have implications for business resilience in a crisis, this study investigates how family business members appraise work-related stress and communally cope together for the sake of their business’s success and resilience during an extended crisis. Guided by Afifi et al.’s (2020) extended model of communal coping, organizational and crisis-specific variables such as crisis self-efficacy, organizational identification, and perceived severity of the crisis were explored as they relate to communal coping in an extended crisis impacting family businesses. Finally, organizational resilience was investigated as an outcome of communal coping. Using quantitative survey data collected from more than 500 family business member participants whose family businesses have continued to operate after the COVID-19 Pandemic, this study found that communal coping significantly contributed to organizational resilience for family businesses, above and beyond other variables. Additionally, this study found evidence of “independent” coping coexisting alongside communal coping behaviors for the family business participants in this study. While both communal coping and “independent” coping behaviors were linked to an increase in organizational resilience, communal coping was a much stronger predictor of organizational resilience. Furthermore, organizational identification and crisis self-efficacy were each found to partially mediate the relationship between communal coping and organizational resilience, and participants’ perceptions of the severity of the crisis impacting their family businesses were found to be an influential predictor of engagement in communal coping behaviors overall. Not only do key findings from this study offer useful recommendations for family businesses, and potentially even organizations at large that are facing a crisis, but this research ultimately makes theoretical contributions to the intersection of organizational and interpersonal communication by extending the communal coping theory to family businesses.

description: Limited applicability and scarce availability of analytical equipment for micro- and millifluidic applications, which are of high interest in research and development, complicate process development, control, and monitoring. The low-cost sensor presented in this work is a modular, fast, non-invasive, multi-purpose, and easy to apply solution for detecting phase changes and concentrations of optically absorbing substances in single and multi-phase capillary flow. It aims at generating deeper insight into existing processes in fields of (bio-)chemical and reaction engineering. The scope of this work includes the application of the sensor to residence time measurements in a heat exchanger, a tubular reactor for concentration measurements, a tubular crystallizer for suspension detection, and a pipetting robot for flow automation purposes. In all presented applications either the level of automation has been increased or more information on the investigated system has been gained. Further applications are explained to be realized in the near future.

Solving the Credit Assignment Problem: The Interaction of Explicit and Implicit Learning with Internal and External State Information

description: In most problem-solving activities, feedback is received at the end of an action sequence. This creates a credit-assignment problem where the learner must associate the feedback with earlier actions, and the interdependencies of actions require the learner to either remember past choices of actions (internal state information) or rely on external cues in the environment (external state information) to select the right actions. We investigated the nature of explicit and implicit learning processes in the credit-assignment problem using a probabilistic sequential choice task with and without external state information. We found that when explicit memory encoding was dominant, subjects were faster to select the better option in their first choices than in the last choices; when implicit reinforcement learning was dominant subjects were faster to select the better option in their last choices than in their first choices. However, implicit reinforcement learning was only successful when distinct external state information was available. The results suggest the nature of learning in credit assignment: an explicit memory encoding process that keeps track of internal state information and a reinforcement-learning process that uses state information to propagate reinforcement backwards to previous choices. However, the implicit reinforcement learning process is effective only when the valences can be attributed to the appropriate states in the system – either internally generated states in the cognitive system or externally presented stimuli in the environment.

description: We present subarcsecond resolution infrared (IR) imaging and mid-IR spectroscopic observations of the Seyfert 1.9 galaxy NGC 2992, obtained with the Gemini North Telescope and the Gran Telescopio CANARIAS (GTC). The N-band image reveals faint extended emission out to ~3 kpc, and the PAH features detected in the GTC/CanariCam 7.5-13 micron spectrum indicate that the bulk of this extended emission is dust heated by star formation. We also report arcsecond resolution MIR and far-IR imaging of the interacting system Arp 245, taken with the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Herschel Space Observatory. Using these data, we obtain nuclear fluxes using different methods and find that we can only recover the nuclear fluxes obtained from the subarcsecond data at 20-25 micron, where the AGN emission dominates. We fitted the nuclear IR spectral energy distribution of NGC 2992, including the GTC/CanariCam nuclear spectrum (~50 pc), with clumpy torus models. We then used the best-fitting torus model to decompose the Spitzer/IRS 5-30 spectrum (~630 pc) in AGN and starburst components, using different starburst templates. We find that, whereas at shorter mid-IR wavelengths the starburst component dominates (64% at 6 micron), the AGN component reaches 90% at 20 micron. We finally obtained dust masses, temperatures and star formation rates for the different components of the Arp 245 system and find similar values for NGC 2992 and NGC 2993. These measurements are within those reported for other interacting systems in the first stages of the interaction.

Bayesian derivation of plasma equilibrium distribution function for tokamak scenarios and the associated Landau collision operator
Creators: name: Di Troia, Claudio

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: A class of parametric distribution functions has been proposed in [C.DiTroia, Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion,54,2012] as equilibrium distribution functions (EDFs) for charged particles in fusion plasmas, representing supra-thermal particles in anisotropic equilibria for Neutral Beam Injection, Ion Cyclotron Heating scenarios. Moreover, the EDFs can also represent nearly isotropic equilibria for Slowing-Down $alpha$ particles and core thermal plasma populations. These EDFs depend on constants of motion (COMs). Assuming an axisymmetric system with no equilibrium electric field, the EDF depends on the toroidal canonical momentum $P_ϕ$, the kinetic energy $w$ and the magnetic moment μ. In the present work, the EDFs are obtained from first principles and general hypothesis. The derivation is probabilistic and makes use of the Bayes' Theorem. The bayesian argument allows us to describe how far from the prior probability distribution function (pdf), e.g. Maxwellian, the plasma is, based on the information obtained from magnetic moment and GC velocity pdf. Once the general functional form of the EDF has been settled, it is shown how to associate a Landau collision operator and a Fokker-Planck equation that ensures the system relaxation towards the proposed EDF.

Deciding Together: A Procedural Solution to a Judgement Aggregation Dilemma

description: This paper begins with a very general question about rational evaluability: what kinds of entities are rationally evaluable? I propose that, in addition to individuals, groups are rationally evaluable—that is, we can rightly call a group rational or irrational, and mean something other than that the individuals composing the group are rational or irrational. But there are some hurdles to such evaluations that do not arise in individual cases—this paper will address some of those first by delineating exactly what the hurdles are, and then proposing a flexible solution, based in group procedure, that preserves evaluability and certain commonsense intuitions about reasoning.

description: Refreshing is a basic reflective component process that can serve to prolong activation of task-relevant information. Neuroimaging work has shown that left middle frontal gyrus (MFG) and supramarginal gyrus (SMG) are selectively engaged during refreshing. Functional MRI (fMRI), however, is not able to determine if these regions are necessary for refreshing. In this experiment, we utilize repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to assess the behavioral effect of functionally deactivating these regions. We report a selective slowing of response times (RTs) to refresh words following MFG stimulation, consistent with a role of lateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) in top-down control mechanisms necessary for refreshing. In contrast, SMG stimulation slowed participants in both refreshing and repeating words, indicating a more general role of SMG in verbal processing.

description: Carbon dots (CDs) represent a rising class of nanomaterials with numerous optical and physicochemical properties that make them useful for a variety of applications. In this work, three different methods, conventional hydrothermal carbonization (CHC), microwave-assisted irradiation and heating reflux reaction technique, were used as different bottom-up approaches to obtain different CDs. The carbon nanoparticles were prepared using three different carbon precursors (maleic, fumaric and adipic acids) and one nitrogen source (ethylenediamine). The CDs were characterized using different techniques including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Transmission electron microscopy, Ultraviolet-visible, Fluorescence and Zeta potential measurements. Both, the experimental method used to obtain the CDs and the different precursors, presented a considerable influence on the quantum yield values (QY), and also on the fluorescence emission curves. The molar proportion between the carbon and nitrogen source was varied to improve the QY, and one of the samples prepared by CHC method reached QY = 25.4%. The carbon nanoparticles obtained by CHC were used as nanoprobes for metal ions and exhibited great selectivity and sensitivity for Fe3+ ions, reaching a limit of detection of 35 nM, which is lower than most reported values for CD-based PL method used as probes for Fe3+ ions.

description: The correlated Wishart model provides the standard benchmark when analyzing time series of any kind. Unfortunately, the real case, which is the most relevant one in applications, poses serious challenges for analytical calculations. Often these challenges are due to square root singularities which cannot be handled using common random matrix techniques. We present a new way to tackle this issue. Using supersymmetry, we carry out an anlaytical study which we support by numerical simulations. For large but finite matrix dimensions, we show that statistical properties of the fully correlated real Wishart model generically approach those of a correlated real Wishart model with doubled matrix dimensions and doubly degenerate empirical eigenvalues. This holds for the local and global spectral statistics. With Monte Carlo simulations we show that this is even approximately true for small matrix dimensions. We explicitly investigate the $k$-point correlation function as well as the distribution of the largest eigenvalue for which we find a surprisingly compact formula in the doubly degenerate case. Moreover we show that on the local scale the $k$-point correlation function exhibits the sine and the Airy kernel in the bulk and at the soft edges, respectively. We also address the positions and the fluctuations of the possible outliers in the data.

Using Mindfulness to Decrease Burnout and Stress among Nurses Working in High Intensity Areas
Creators: name: Bronson, Kimberly
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: ABSTRACT
      Background: The practice of Mindfulness has demonstrated promise for increasing self-care
      among nurses experiencing work-related stress and burnout. Programs based in the art of
      mindfulness have been shown to improve feelings of burnout, perceived stress levels, and self
      care among healthcare professionals. Aim: To introduce a 4-week mindfulness based program to
      nurses working in high intensity environments at a Fayetteville Veteran Affairs Medical Center
      (VAMC) in southeastern United States. The goal of the project was to determine how
      mindfulness practice influenced experiences of (1) burnout (2) self-care, and (3) perceived stress
      levels among nurses at the VAMC. Methods: A quality improvement project applying a 4-week
      Mindfulness Based Stress Management program was initiated among a cohort of 20 nurses
      working in identified high intensity areas of the hospital such as the inpatient psychiatric unit, the
      urgent care/emergency department, and the intensive care unit. Results: Upon completion of the
      4-week project, nurses reported improvement in burnout and stress, as well as increased acts of
      self-care. These improvements were measured utilizing the Maslach Burnout Inventory, the
      Perceived Stress Scale-4, and the Mindfulness Self-Care Scale. Conclusions: Findings suggest
      that the implementation of a mindfulness based program can improve the health and well-being
      of nurses working in high intensity areas a Veterans Administration Medical Center setting.

description: Several different interpretations have been offered to explain the mechanism giving rise to the linear relationship between word length and reading time shown by patients with pure alexia or letter-by-letter reading. One interpretation attributes this word length effect to a spatial impairment in which there is a left-right gradient of processing efficiency. This fundamental resource limitation requires that the patient focus on each letter in turn to increase its signal-to-noise ratio and discriminability, especially for letters towards the end of the string. An alternative view attributes the word length effect to a letter activation deficit that disrupts the rapid and efficient processing of single letters. In this paper, we examine these two hypotheses in relation to DS, a letter-by-letter reader. DS is able to distribute her attention to multiple locations in parallel and her performance is unaffected by the absolute or relative spatial location of the letters in a string. She is, however, impaired at reporting the identity of a letter independent of its spatial location and requires an abnormally long time to process each letter. Furthermore, investigations of DS's reading, using Howard's (1991) analyses of reaction time distributions, suggest that she processes each letter in a sequential order. Based on the results of these studies, we propose that prototypic pure alexia is a nonspatial visual disorder that affects the activation of individual letters.

description: In this note semibounded self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators are investigated with the help of the abstract notion of quasi boundary triples and their Weyl functions. The main purpose is to provide new sufficient conditions on the parameters in the boundary space to induce self-adjoint realizations, and to relate the decay of the Weyl function to estimates on the lower bound of the spectrum. The abstract results are illustrated with uniformly elliptic second order PDEs on domains with non-compact boundaries.

Creators: name: Rowe, Dale, Christopher
Publisher: name: University of Kent

description: In today's society where information technology is depended upon throughout homes, educational establishments and workplaces the challenge of identity management is ever growing. Advancements in image processing and biometric feature based identification have provided a means for computer software to accurately identify individuals from increasingly vast databases of users. In the quest to improve the performance of such systems in varying environmental conditions skin texture is here proposed as a biometric feature. This thesis presents and discusses a hypothesis for the use of facial skin texture regions taken from 2-dimensional photographs to accurately identify individuals using three classifiers (neural network, support vector machine and linear discriminant). Gabor wavelet filters are primarily used for feature extraction and arc supported in later chapters by the grey-level cooccurrence probability matrix (GLCP) to strengthen the system by providing supplementary high-frequency features. Various fusion techniques for combining these features are presented and their perfonnance is compared including both score and feature fusion and various permutations of each. Based on preliminary results from the BioSecure Multimodal Database (BMDB) , the work presented indicates that isolated texture regions of the human face taken from under the eye may provide sufficient information to discriminately identify an individual with an equal error rate (EER) of under 1% when operating in greyscale. An analysis of the performance of the algorithm against image resolution investigates the systems performance when faced with lower resolution training images and discusses optimal resolutions for classifier training. The system also shows a good degree of robustness when the probe image resolution is reduced indicating that the algorithm provides some level of scale invariance. Scope for future work is laid out and a review of the evaluation is also presented.

description: The evolution of massive stars is still partly unconstrained. Mass, metallicity, mass loss and rotation are the main drivers of stellar evolution. Binarity and magnetic field may also significantly affect the fate of massive stars. Our goal is to investigate the evolution of single O stars in the Galaxy. For that, we use a sample of 74 objects comprising all luminosity classes and spectral types from O4 to O9.7. We rely on optical spectroscopy obtained in the context of the MiMeS survey of massive stars. We perform spectral modelling with the code CMFGEN. We determine the surface properties of the sample stars, with special emphasis on abundances of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. Most of our sample stars have initial masses in the range 20 to 50 Msun. We show that nitrogen is more enriched and carbon/oxygen more depleted in supergiants than in dwarfs, with giants showing intermediate degrees of mixing. CNO abundances are observed in the range of values predicted by nucleosynthesis through the CNO cycle. More massive stars, within a given luminosity class, appear to be more chemically enriched than lower mass stars. We compare our results with predictions of three types of evolutionary models and show that, for two sets of models, 80% of our sample can be explained by stellar evolution including rotation. The effect of magnetism on surface abundances is unconstrained. Our study indicates that, in the 20-50 Msun mass range, the surface chemical abundances of most single O stars in the Galaxy are fairly well accounted for by stellar evolution of rotating stars.

description: Two warrior artists documented coups at the Red Canyon site by illustrating capture hands reaching out to take enemy women. The capture of these women has an obvious sexual symbolism, with the capture hands reaching out toward the vulva in one instance and the breast in the other. This symbolism is identical to that which occurs at other Northwestern Plains rock art sites scattered from Writing-On-Stone, Alberta to Wyoming’s Bighorn Basin (Greer and Keyser 2008:95, 98; Keyser and Poetschat 2009:15, 2014:99; Keyser et al. 2006:59; 2012:77-78). In Plains Indian cultures this symbolism served to show a man’s counting coup by claiming (or “capturing”) a woman’s reproductive potential (Keyser et al. 2006:59). Such capture of women was a key component of the Plains warfare system, since captives were highly sought after to replace dead relatives killed by epidemic diseases and inter-tribal warfare. This Red Canyon rock art composition provides another testament to the importance of women captives in the warfare system of the Northwestern Plains.
From charge motion in general magnetic fields to the non perturbative gyrokinetic equation

description: The exact analytical description of non relativistic charge motion in general magnetic fields is, apparently, a simple problem but, it has not been solved up to now apart for rare cases. The key feature of the present derivation is to adopt a non perturbative magnetic field description to find new solutions of motion. Among all solutions, two are particularly important: guiding particle and gyro-particle solutions. The guiding particle has been characterized to be minimally coupled to the magnetic field, the gyro-particle has been defined to be maximally coupled to the magnetic field and, also, to move on a closed orbit. The generic charged particle motion is shown to be expressed as the sum of such particular solutions. This non perturbative approach corresponds to the description of the particle motion in the gyro-center and/or guiding center reference frame obtained at all the orders of the modern gyro-center transformation. The Boltzmann equation is analyzed with the described exact guiding center coordinates. The obtained gyrokinetic equation is solved for the Boltzmann equation at marginal stability conditions.

description: This article addresses the role played by adaptive self-regulation in protecting older adults' psychological and physical health. A theoretical model is outlined illustrating how common age-related challenges (i.e., physical challenges and life regrets) can influence older adults' health. In addition, the proposed model suggests that older adults can avoid the adverse health effects of encountering these problems if they engage in adaptive self-regulation. Finally, this article reviews recent studies that examined the adaptive value of self-regulation processes for managing physical challenges and life regrets in the elderly. The findings from cross-sectional, longitudinal, and experimental studies document the importance of adaptive self-regulation for maintaining older adults' health.
The role of non-marital coparents in the psychosocial adjustment of African American youth from single mother-headed families
Creators: name: Sterrett, Emma M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: Little empirical attention has considered the quality of the relationships that African American youths from single mother homes may have with extended family and other non-marital coparents. The current study examined associations between coparent support and three measures of youth adjustment, internalizing symptoms, externalizing symptoms, and cognitive competence, in a sample of low-income, urban African American single mother families (n = 141). Findings revealed that coparent support was not directly associated with youth outcomes. However, the two-way interaction of coparent support X positive parenting was significant at Assessment 1 for both externalizing and internalizing symptoms. The negative association between positive parenting and symptoms was strongest in the context of high levels of coparent support. Finally, exploratory analyses revealed some associations of coparent identity (i.e. father, grandmother, sister or other) with the outcome variables. Implications and future directions for research are discussed.
