Almost the supersymmetric Standard Model from intersecting D6-branes on the Z_6' orientifold

description: Intersecting stacks of supersymmetric fractional branes on the Z_6' orientifold may be used to construct the supersymmetric Standard Model. If a,b are the stacks that generate the SU(3)_{colour} and SU(2)_L gauge particles, then, in order to obtain {\em just} the chiral spectrum of the (supersymmetric) Standard Model (with non-zero Yukawa couplings to the Higgs mutiplets), it is necessary that the number of intersections a \cap b of the stacks a and b, and the number of intersections a \cap b' of a with the orientifold image b' of b satisfy (a \cap b,a \cap b')=(2,1) or (1,2). It is also necessary that there is no matter in symmetric representations of the gauge group, and not too much matter in antisymmetric representations, on either stack. Fractional branes having all of these properties may be constructed on the Z_6' orientifold. We construct a (four-stack) model with two further stacks, each with just a single brane, which has precisely the matter spectrum of the supersymmetric Standard Model, including a single pair of Higgs doublets. However, the gauge group is SU(3)_{\rm colour} x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y x U(1)_H. Only the Higgs doublets are charged with respect to U(1)_H.

description: This paper addresses some numerical and theoretical aspects of dual Schur domain decomposition methods for linear first-order transient partial differential equations. In this work, we consider the trapezoidal family of schemes for integrating the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for each subdomain and present four different coupling methods, corresponding to different algebraic constraints, for enforcing kinematic continuity on the interface between the subdomains. Method 1 (d-continuity) is based on the conventional approach using continuity of the primary variable and we show that this method is unstable for a lot of commonly used time integrators including the mid-point rule. To alleviate this difficulty, we propose a new Method 2 (Modified d-continuity) and prove its stability for coupling all time integrators in the trapezoidal family (except the forward Euler). Method 3 (v-continuity) is based on enforcing the continuity of the time derivative of the primary variable. However, this constraint introduces a drift in the primary variable on the interface. We present Method 4 (Baumgarte stabilized) which uses Baumgarte stabilization to limit this drift and we derive bounds for the stabilization parameter to ensure stability. Our stability analysis is based on the ``energy'' method, and one of the main contributions of this paper is the extension of the energy method (which was previously introduced in the context of numerical methods for ODEs) to assess the stability of numerical formulations for index-2 differential-algebraic equations (DAEs).

description: We review recent developments in the modelling of the phase diagram and the kinetics of crystallization of carbon. In particular, we show that a particular class of bond-order potentials (the so-called LCBOP models) account well for many of the known structural and thermodynamic properties of carbon at high pressures and temperatures. We discuss the LCBOP models in some detail. In addition, we briefly review the ``history'' of experimental and theoretical studies of the phase behaviour of carbon. Using a well-tested version of the LCBOP model (viz. LCBOPI+) we address some of the more controversial hypotheses concerning the phase behaviour of carbon, in particular: the suggestion that liquid carbon can exist in two phases separated by a first-order phase transition and the conjecture that diamonds could have formed by homogeneous nucleation in Uranus and Neptune.

Quadratic and cubic spherically symmetric black holes in the modified teleparallel equivalent of general relativity: Energy and thermodynamics

description: In \cite{Bahamonde:2019zea}, a spherically symmetric black hole (BH) was derived from the quadratic form of $f(T)$. Here we derive the associated energy, invariants of curvature, and torsion of this BH and demonstrate that the higher-order contribution of torsion renders the singularity weaker compared with the Schwarzschild BH of general relativity (GR). Moreover, we calculate the thermodynamic quantities and reveal the effect of the higher--order contribution on these quantities. Therefore, we derive a new spherically symmetric BH from the cubic form of $f(T)=T+ε\Big[\frac{1}{2}αT^2+\frac{1}{3}βT^3\Big]$, where $ε<<1$, $α$, and $β$ are constants. The new BH is characterized by the two constants $α$ and $β$ in addition to $ε$. At $ε=0$ we return to GR. We study the physics of these new BH solutions via the same procedure that was applied for the quadratic BH. Moreover, we demonstrate that the contribution of the higher-order torsion, $\frac{1}{2}αT^2+\frac{1}{3}βT^3$, may afford an interesting physics.

description: We present the SFI++ dataset, a homogeneously derived catalog of photometric and rotational properties and the Tully-Fisher distances and peculiar velocities derived from them. We make use of digital optical images, optical long-slit spectra, and global HI line profiles to extract parameters of relevance to disk scaling relations, incorporating several previously published datasets as well as a new photometric sample of some 2000 objects. According to the completeness of available redshift samples over the sky area, we exploit both a modified percolation algorithm and the Voronoi-Delaunay method to assign individual galaxies to groups as well as clusters, thereby reducing scatter introduced by local orbital motions. We also provide corrections to the peculiar velocities for both homogeneous and inhomogeneous Malmquist bias, making use of the 2MASS Redshift Survey density field to approximate large scale structure. We summarize the sample selection criteria, corrections made to raw observational parameters, the grouping techniques, and our procedure for deriving peculiar velocities. The final SFI++ peculiar velocity catalog of 4861 field and cluster galaxies is large enough to permit the study not just of the global statistics of large scale flows but also of the {\it details} of the local velocity field.

On the visual discrimination of self-similar random textures
Creators: name: Rensink, Ronald Andy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This work investigates the ability of the human visual system to discriminate self-similar Gaussian random textures. The power spectra of such textures are similar to themselves when rescaled by some factor h > 1. As such, these textures provide a natural domain for testing the hypothesis that texture perception is based on a set of spatial-frequency channels characterized by filters of similar shape. Some general properties of self-similar random textures are developed. In particular, the relations between their covariance functions and power spectra are established, and are used to show that many self-similar random textures are stochastic fractals. These relations also lead to a simple texture-generation algorithm that allows independent and orthogonal variation of several properties of interest. Several sets of psychophysical experiments are carried out to determine the statistical properties governing the discrimination of self-similar line textures. Results show that both the similarity parameter H and the scaling ratio h influence discriminability. These two quantities, however, are insufficient to completely characterize perceived texture. The ability of the visual system to discriminate between various classes of self-similar random texture is analyzed using a simple multichannel model of texture perception. The empirical results are found to be compatible with the hypothesis that texture perception is mediated by the set of spatial-frequency channels putatively involved in form vision.

description: We examine transport through a quantum dot coupled to three ferromagnetic leads in the regime of weak tunnel coupling. A finite source-drain voltage generates a nonequilibrium spin on the otherwise non-magnetic quantum dot. This spin accumulation leads to magnetoresistance. A ferromagnetic but current-free base electrode influences the quantum-dot spin via incoherent spin-flip processes and coherent spin precession. As the dot spin determines the conductance of the device, this allows for a purely magnetic transistor-like operation. We analyze the effect of both types of processes on the electric current in different geometries.

description: The internal one-particle density matrix is discussed for Bose-Einstein condensates with finite number of particles in a harmonic trap. The outcome of the digonalization of the density matrix depends on the choice of the internal coordinates: The Pethick-Pitaevskii-type internal density matrix, whose analytical eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are evaluated, yields a fragmented condensate, while the Jacobi-type internal density matrix leads to an ideal condensate. We give a criterion for the choice of the internal coordinates: In the macroscopic limit the internal density matrix should have eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of an ideal Bose-Einstein condensate, this being a very physical condition for cases where the system is also an ideal Bose condensation in the laboratory frame. One choice fulfilling this boundary condition is given by the internal Jacobi coordinates, while the internal coordinates with respect to the center of mass do not satisfy the condition. Based on our criterion, a general definition of the internal one-particle density matrix is presented in a self-bound system, consisting of interacting bosons.

description: In the setting of CAT(k) spaces, common fixed point iterations built from prox mappings (e.g. prox-prox, Krasnoselsky-Mann relaxations, nonlinear projected-gradients) converge locally linearly under the assumption of linear metric subregularity. Linear metric subregularity is in any case necessary for linearly convergent fixed point sequences, so the result is tight. To show this, we develop a theory of fixed point mappings that violate the usual assumptions of nonexpansiveness and firm nonexpansiveness in p-uniformly convex spaces.

description: We investigate the photoconductance of single-walled carbon nanotube-nanocrystalhybrids. The nanocrystals are bound to the nanotubes via molecular recognition. We find that the photoconductance of the hybrids can be adjusted by the absorption characteristics of the nanocrystals. In addition, the photoconductance of the hybrids surprisingly exhibits a slow time constant of about 1 ms after excitation of the nanocrystals. The data are consistent with a bolometrically induced current increase in the nanotubes caused by photon absorption in the nanocrystals.

description: We report on calculations of broadening effects in QCL due to alloy scattering. The output of numerical calculations of alloy broadened Landau levels compare favorably with calculations performed at the self-consistent Born approximation. Results for Landau level width and optical absorption are presented. A disorder activated forbidden transition becomes significant in the vicinity of crossings of Landau levels which belong to different subbands. A study of the time dependent survival probability in the lowest Landau level of the excited subband is performed. It is shown that at resonance the population relaxation occurs in a subpicosecond scale.

description: The ability to remove a large amount of noise and the ability to preserve most structure are desirable properties of an image smoother. Unfortunately, they usually seem to be at odds with each other; one can only improve one property at the cost of the other. By combining M-smoothing and least-squares-trimming, the TM-smoother is introduced as a means to unify corner-preserving properties and outlier robustness. To identify edge- and corner-preserving properties, a new theory based on differential geometry is developed. Further, robustness concepts are transferred to image processing. In two examples, the TM-smoother outperforms other corner-preserving smoothers. A software package containing both the TM- and the M-smoother can be downloaded from the Internet.

Depiction and domains in visual knowledge representation
Creators: name: Wong, Gladys Magali
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Systems need knowledge to behave intelligently in a complex environment. This thesis presents a formalism for characterizing the knowledge in a world while providing a framework that can be utilzed efficiently in computation. Thus Domain Theory is developed as a knowledge representation scheme. Under Domain Theory, the knowledge in a world is divided into domains that are interrelated through the relation of representation. This theory is evaluated as appropriate for knowledge representation using descriptive and procedural adequacy criteria. Domain Theory is applied to produce a working system called Depicts. Depicts is written in Prolog which is well suited for implementing Domain Theory. Given a graphical representation, Depicts returns a relational description and, conversely, given a relational description, Depicts returns a graphical representation.
Dipole Formation at Interfaces of Alkanethiolate Self-assembled Monolayers and Ag(111)

description: The formation of interface dipoles in self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of --CH$_3$ and --CF$_3$ terminated short-chain alkanethiolates on Ag(111) is studied by means of density functional theory calculations. The interface dipoles are characterized by monitoring the change in the surface work function upon adsorption of the SAM. We compare results obtained for SAMs in structures with a different packing density of molecules, i.e. {$(\sqrt{7}\times\sqrt{7}) R19.1^{\circ}$}, {$(\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}) R30^{\circ}$}, and {p(2$\times$2)}. The work function of alkanethiolate SAMs on silver depends weakly on the packing density; that of fluorinatedalkanethiolates shows a stronger dependance. The results are analyzed in terms of two nearly independent contributions to the interface dipole. These originate respectively from the molecular dipoles and from a charge transfer between the metal surface and the molecules. The charge transfer is determined by the silver--sulfur bond and it is independent of the electronegativity of the molecules.

description: The Sultanate of Oman has been undergoing massive changes in the last 50 years. The Gulf State transformed from a very traditional and isolated country into a wealthy and modern state. After Sultan Said was enthroned in 1970, the young Sultan Qaboos, who passed away in 2020, began to modernise Oman’s economy and society. Today, widespread, single-family houses are the prevailing residential building type, with an urban sprawl characterised by mono-functional zoning and a dependency on motorized individual transport with long commuting distances. All these conditions have been strongly supported by governmental planning policies. Since this urban sprawl causes unsustainable land consumption, this study addresses options for urban development and housing typologies aiming at a compact city with a higher density. However, the term density has to reflect local cultural and climatic conditions and, in time of the pandemic as special focus of this issue, has to be critically discussed and reviewed. Thus, this study identifies, as a base line study in Muscat Capital Area, Omani residents’ housing needs by an online questionnaire survey focusing on housing layouts, features and locational preferences, exploring alternatives to the current situation. Findings are that housing needs do not necessarily demand a single-family building but can be achieved better by different housing layouts, at the same time supporting social distances measures via outdoor options during the pandemic.

description: The holomorphicity property of N=1 superpotentials or of N=2 F-terms involving vector multiplets is generalized to the case of N=4 1/2-BPS effective operators defined in harmonic superspace. The resulting harmonicity equations are shown to control the moduli dependence of the couplings of higher dimensional operators involving powers of the N=4 Weyl superfield, computed by N=4 topological amplitudes. These equations can also be derived on the string side, exhibiting an anomaly from world-sheet boundary contributions that leads to recursion relations for the non-analytic part of the couplings.

description: This study describes treatment characteristics and healthcare costs prior to and following treatment change from somatostatin analog (SSA) monotherapy among a privately-insured NET patient population in the US. Patients with newly diagnosed NET and treated with SSA monotherapy were retrospectively identified in IBM MarketScan claims between 1/1/2014 and 3/31/2019. NET treatment change was captured ≥30 days after the SSA start date (earliest new treatment = index date). Healthcare costs (reimbursed amount in 2019 dollars) were reported for 1, 3, and 6 months pre- and post-index intervals. A total of 305 patients were identified (mean age: 58 years; female: 52%; metastatic disease: 49%). Most patients started on octreotide (81%) vs. lanreotide (19%). Common treatment changes included alternate SSA (38%), targeted therapy (30%), or chemotherapy (23%). Total costs increased on average by $13,272 between the month preceding and following treatment change (p p p p = .155). The trajectory in mean cost difference using a 1, 3, and 6-month time period followed an increasing trend for patients who changed to targeted therapy (Δ$19,677, Δ$34,856, Δ$58,387) but was flat for patients who changed to the alternate SSA (Δ$10,240, Δ$10,026, Δ$11,727). Higher total healthcare costs were observed following treatment change from first-line SSA. Switching to the alternate SSA was associated with a fixed, one-time cost; whereas, switching to targeted therapy was associated with both an initial switching cost and a persistent monthly increase.
Mr Vot or Mr Vott? : Implicit knowledge of surname spelling
Creators: name: Delany, SM
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania
Year: 2024

description: When surnames sound the same as real words, such as “Kidd”, they are often spelled with superfluous letters, which is referred to as “padding”. The current study aimed to test if adult spellers have implicit knowledge of this word class pattern. We examined two opposing principles: the distinctiveness principle and the familiarity principle. The distinctiveness principle would predict that people would use padding more often for surnames that were real words, to increase their distinctiveness, compared to nonwords. The familiarity principle comes from evidence that people prefer familiar spellings for familiar words, and would predict that participants would use padding less often for surnames that were real words than nonwords. Undergraduates (n = 66, M age = 27.7 years, 52 female) completed a spelling choice task for made-up surnames; half sounded the same as real words and half were nonwords. Participants chose padded spellings significantly more often for nonword (e.g., “Lodd”) than real word surnames (e.g., “Nod"), which supports the familiarity principle. Spelling distinctions between surname types did not correlate significantly with general spelling skill. Results are interpreted in terms of the cues supporting each spelling, as explained in the Integration of Multiple Patterns theory (Treiman & Kessler, 2014).

description: This paper presents Arvada, an algorithm for learning context-free grammars from a set of positive examples and a Boolean-valued oracle. Arvada learns a context-free grammar by building parse trees from the positive examples. Starting from initially flat trees, Arvada builds structure to these trees with a key operation: it bubbles sequences of sibling nodes in the trees into a new node, adding a layer of indirection to the tree. Bubbling operations enable recursive generalization in the learned grammar. We evaluate Arvada against GLADE and find it achieves on average increases of 4.98x in recall and 3.13x in F1 score, while incurring only a 1.27x slowdown and requiring only 0.87x as many calls to the oracle. Arvada has a particularly marked improvement over GLADE on grammars with highly recursive structure, like those of programming languages.

description: The motion of an air-fluid interface through an irregularly coated capillary is studied by analysing the Lucas-Washburn equation with a random capillary force. The pinning probability goes from zero to a maximum value, as the interface slows down. Under a critical velocity, the distribution of waiting times $τ$ displays a power-law tail $\sim τ^{-2}$ which corresponds to a strongly intermittent dynamics, also observed in experiments. We elaborate a procedure to predict quantities of experimental interest, such as the average interface trajectory and the distribution of pinning lengths.

description: We propose a natural stretching function for DNS of wall-bounded flows, which blends uniform near-wall spacing with uniform resolution in terms of Kolmogorov units in the outer wall layer. Numerical simulations of pipe flow are used to educe optimal value of the blending parameter and of the wall grid spacing which guarantee accuracy and computational efficiency as a results of maximization of the allowed time step. Conclusions are supported by DNS carried out at sufficiently high Reynolds number that a near logarithmic layer is the mean velocity profile is present. Given a target Reynolds number, we provide a definite prescription for the number of grid points and grid clustering needed to achieve accurate results with optimal exploitation of resources.

description: We study the distribution of long Gamma Ray Bursts in the Ep-Eiso and in the Ep,obs-Fluence planes through an updated sample of 76 bursts, with measured redshift and spectral parameters, detected up to September 2007. We confirm the existence of a strong rest frame correlation Ep ~ Eiso^0.54+-0.01. Contrary to previous studies, no sign of evolution with redshift of the Ep-Eiso correlation (either its slope and normalisation) is found. The 76 bursts define a strong Ep,obs-Fluence correlation in the observer frame (Ep,obs ~ F^0.32+-0.05) with redshifts evenly distributed along this correlation. We study possible instrumental selection effects in the observer frame Ep,obs-Fluence plane. In particular, we concentrate on the minimum peak flux necessary to trigger a given GRB detector (trigger threshold) and the minimum fluence a burst must have to determine the value of Ep,obs (spectral analysis threshold). We find that the latter dominates in the Ep,obs-Fluence plane over the former. Our analysis shows, however, that these instrumental selection effects do not dominate for bursts detected before the launch of the Swift satellite, while the spectral analysis threshold is the dominant truncation effect of the Swift GRB sample (27 out of 76 events). This suggests that the Ep,obs-Fluence correlation defined by the pre--Swift sample could be affected by other, still not understood, selection effects. Besides we caution about the conclusions on the existence of the Ep,obs-Fluence correlation based on our Swift sample alone.

Mr Vot or Mr Vott? iImplicit knowledge of surname spelling
Creators: name: Delany, SM
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania

description: When surnames sound the same as real words, such as “Kidd”, they are often spelled with superfluous letters, which is referred to as “padding”. The current study aimed to test if adult spellers have implicit knowledge of this word class pattern. We examined two opposing principles: the distinctiveness principle and the familiarity principle. The distinctiveness principle would predict that people would use padding more often for surnames that were real words, to increase their distinctiveness, compared to nonwords. The familiarity principle comes from evidence that people prefer familiar spellings for familiar words, and would predict that participants would use padding less often for surnames that were real words than nonwords. Undergraduates (n = 66, M age = 27.7 years, 52 female) completed a spelling choice task for made-up surnames; half sounded the same as real words and half were nonwords. Participants chose padded spellings significantly more often for nonword (e.g., “Lodd”) than real word surnames (e.g., “Nod"), which supports the familiarity principle. Spelling distinctions between surname types did not correlate significantly with general spelling skill. Results are interpreted in terms of the cues supporting each spelling, as explained in the Integration of Multiple Patterns theory (Treiman & Kessler, 2014).

description: The nanoscopic structure and the stationary propagation velocity of (1+1)-dimensional solid-on-solid interfaces in an Ising lattice-gas model, which are driven far from equilibrium by an applied force, such as a magnetic field or a difference in (electro)chemical potential, are studied by an analytic nonlinear-response approximation together with kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. Here we consider the case that the system is coupled to a two-dimensional phonon bath. In the resulting dynamic, transitions that conserve the system energy are forbidden, and the effects of the applied force and the interaction energies do not factorize (a so-called hard dynamic). In full agreement with previous general theoretical results we find that the local interface width changes dramatically with the applied force. However, in contrast with other hard dynamics, this change is nonmonotonic in the driving force. However, significant differences between theory and simulation are found near two special values of the driving force, where certain transitions allowed by the solid-on-solid model become forbidden by the phonon-assisted dynamic. Our results represent a significant step toward providing a solid physical foundation for kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.

description: We derive the semiclassical evolution of massless conformally coupled scalar matter in the de Sitter space-time from the Born-Oppenheimer reduction of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. We find a remarkable difference with respect to the minimally coupled case: the effect of the quantum gravitational corrections do not depend on the momentum of the scalar mode up to second order in the Planck length and, therefore, there are no relevant corrections to the dispersion relation.

description: Document networks are characteristic in that a document node, e.g. a webpage or an article, carries meaningful content. Properties of document networks are not only affected by topological connectivity between nodes, but also strongly influenced by the semantic relation between content of the nodes. We observe that document networks have a large number of triangles and a high value of clustering coefficient. And there is a strong correlation between the probability of formation of a triangle and the content similarity among the three nodes involved. We propose the degree-similarity product (DSP) model which well reproduces these properties. The model achieves this by using a preferential attachment mechanism which favours the linkage between nodes that are both popular and similar. This work is a step forward towards a better understanding of the structure and evolution of document networks.

An environment theory with precomplete negation over pairs
Creators: name: Andrews, James H.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A formal semantics of Voda's Theory of Pairs is given which takes the natural-deduction form of Gilmore's first-order set theory. The complete proof theory corresponding to this semantics is given. Then, a logic programming system is described in the form of a computational proof theory for the Gilmore semantics. This system uses parallel disjunction and the technique of precomplete negation; these features are shown to make it more complete than conventional logic programming languages. Finally, some alternative formulations are explored which would bring the logic programming system described closer to conventional systems. The semantic problems arising from these alternatives are explored. Included in appendices are the proof of completeness of the complete proof theory, and the environment solution algorithm which is at the heart of precomplete negation over pairs.

On a thermodynamic framework for developing boundary conditions for Korteweg fluids

description: We provide a derivation of several classes of boundary conditions for fluids of Korteweg-type using a simple and transparent thermodynamic approach that automatically guarentees that the derived boundary conditions are compatible with the second law of thermodynamics. The starting assumption of our approach is to describe the boundary of the domain as the membrane separating two different continua, one inside the domain, and the other outside the domain. With this viewpoint one may employ the framework of continuum thermodynamics involving singular surfaces. This approach allows us to identify, for various classes of surface Helmholtz free energies, the corresponding surface entropy production mechanisms. By establishing the constitutive relations that guarantee that the surface entropy production is non-negative, we identify a new class of boundary conditions, which on one hand generalizes in a nontrivial manner the Navier's slip boundary conditions, and on the other hand describes dynamic and static contact angle conditions. We explore the general model in detail for a particular case of Korteweg fluid where the Helmholtz free energy in the bulk is that of a van der Waals fluid.  We perform a series of numerical experiments to document the basic qualitative features of the novel boundary conditions and their practical applicability to model phenomena such as the contact angle hysteresis.

description: The Fisher-Shannon complexity plane is a powerful tool that represents complex dynamics in a two-dimensional plane. It locates a dynamical system based upon its entropy and its Fisher Information Measure (FIM). It has been recently shown that, by using ordinal patterns to compute permutation entropy and FIM, this plane unveils inner details of the structure underlying the complex and chaotic dynamics of a system. In order to compute FIM, the order of the patterns is very relevant. We analyze in detail the impact of the sorting protocol used to calculate FIM using ordinal patterns. We show the importance of a suitable choice, which can lead to saving computational resources, but also to unveil details of the dynamics not accessible to other sorting protocols. Our results agree with previous research, and common characteristic fingerprints are found for the different chaotic maps studied. Our analysis also reveals the fractal behavior of the chaotic maps studied. We extract some underlying symmetries that allow us to simulate the behavior on the complexity plane for a wide range of the control parameters in the chaotic regimes.
