description: In this article, we present an efficient descent method for locally Lipschitz continuous multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs). The method is realized by combining a theoretical result regarding the computation of descent directions for nonsmooth MOPs with a practical method to approximate the subdifferentials of the objective functions. We show convergence to points which satisfy a necessary condition for Pareto optimality. Using a set of test problems, we compare our method to the multiobjective proximal bundle method by Mäkelä. The results indicate that our method is competitive while being easier to implement. While the number of objective function evaluations is larger, the overall number of subgradient evaluations is lower. Finally, we show that our method can be combined with a subdivision algorithm to compute entire Pareto sets of nonsmooth MOPs.

description: Ever since the advent of quantum mechanics, it has been clear that the atoms composing matter do not obey Newton's laws. Instead, their behavior is described by the Schroedinger equation. Surprisingly though, until recently, no clear explanation was given for why everyday objects, which are merely collections of atoms, are observed to obey Newton's laws. It would seem that, if quantum mechanics explains all the properties of atoms accurately, they, too, should obey quantum mechanics. This reasoning led some scientists to believe in a distinct macroscopic, or ``big and complicated,'' world in which quantum mechanics fails and classical mechanics takes over, although there has never been experimental evidence for such a failure. Even those who insisted that Newtonian mechanics would somehow emerge from the underlying quantum mechanics as the system became increasingly macroscopic were hindered by the lack of adequate experimental and theoretical tools. In the last decade, however, this quantum-to-classical transition has become accessible to experimental study and quantitative description, and the resulting insights are the subject of this article.

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The linear k_\perp-factorization is part and parcel of the pQCD description of high energy hard processes off free nucleons. In the case of heavy nuclear targets the very concept of nuclear parton density becomes ill-defined as exemplified by the recent derivation [2] of nonlinear nuclear k_\perp-factorization for forward dijet production in DIS off nuclei. Here we report a derivation of the related breaking of k_\perp-factorization for single-jet processes. We present a general formalism and apply it to several cases of practical interest: open charm and quark and gluon jet production in the central to beam fragmentation region of γ^*p,γ^*A, pp and pA collisions. We show how the pattern of k_\perp-factorization breaking and the nature and number of exchanged nuclear pomerons do change within the phase space of produced quark and gluon jets. As an application of the nonlinear k_\perp-factorization we discuss the Cronin effect. Our results are also applicable to the p_\perp-dependence of the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect for, and nuclear quenching of, jets produced in the proton hemisphere of pA collisions.

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: The impacts of invasive plants on ecosystem processes and functions may persist as “legacy effects” after their removal. Understanding these effects on native plant-soil interactions is critical for guiding ecological restoration efforts. This study examines the legacy effects of the invasive legume Acacia saligna (Labill.) H.L. Wendl. in South Africa's Cape Fynbos to evaluate restoration potential post-removal. We compared cleared, invaded, and uninvaded reference sites across three conservation areas, examining soil chemical properties, nitrogen (N) isotope signatures (as a proxy for the sources of N uptake by a native plant and A. saligna), and the diversity and composition of plant and soil bacterial communities. The effects of A. saligna removal was contingent on conservation area, though consistent patterns emerged for plant and bacterial diversity across sites. Recovery toward reference site levels were evident for soil organic carbon and potassium, but nitrate and available phosphorous only improved in one area. Invader removal was linked to higher soil pH in one area and higher phosphorus availability in two. Soil conditions in cleared sites influenced the nitrogen sources used by A. saligna, shifting towards soil-derived nitrogen, but did not influence those used by the native species assessed. While we observed signs of native plant community recovery after clearing, soil bacterial communities remained comparable to those in invaded sites. The lag in bacterial community recovery was linked to soil pH changes caused by A. saligna invasion. Our findings demonstrate that removing A. saligna can promote native vegetation recovery, though legacy effects may impede or delay the recovery of soil bacterial communities. The influence of these soil legacy effects may also depend on the management or invasion history of sites.

description: We exhibit a quantum algorithm for determining the zeta function of a genus g curve over a finite field F_q, which is polynomial in g and log(q). This amounts to giving an algorithm to produce provably random elements of the class group of a curve, plus a recipe for recovering a Weil polynomial from enough of its cyclic resultants. The latter effectivizes a result of Fried in a restricted setting.

Effects of sodium bicarbonate on reducing acidosis in cattle
Creators: name: Paton, Laura Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: A study was conducted to determine whether feeding sodium bicarbonate (SB) reduces the risk of subacute acidosis (SARA) in cattle receiving high concentrate diets. Twelve Hereford cross heifers (Exp.l) and six ruminally cannulated animals (Exp. 2; three Jersey steers and three Holstein cows), previously adapted to a high concentrate diet, were used in 3 x 3 Latin square designs to study the effects of SB on feed intake, ruminal pH, ruminal fermentation and blood characteristics. Animals were provided ad libitum access to a control diet containing steamrolled barley, barley silage, and a supplement at 80, 12, and 8% (Exp. 1) and 81.2, 12.0 and 6.8% (Exp. 2) (DM basis), respectively. Treatments were: control, control with free choice access to a SB mixture offered as 30% dried molasses and 70% SB (free choice SB) and control diet supplemented with 0.7% SB (DM basis) (mix SB). Periods consisted of 21 d (Exp. 1) or 14 d with l i d adaptation and 3 d of continuous ruminal pH measurements using indwelling electrodes (Exp. 2). Mean dry matter intake for Exp. 1 and 2 was not affected by treatment. Sodium bicarbonate intake differed when provided free choice verses when mixed into the diet (P < 0.0001) in Exp. 1 (2.1 vs. 55.3 g/d) and cows (17.4 vs. 57.8 g/d) and steers (129.1 vs. 56.1 g/d) in Exp. 2, respectively. Intakes of SB also tended to differ amongst animals (P < 0.07) in Exp. 1 and 2. Treatment had no affect on ruminal volatile fatty acids or blood variables (Exp. 2). Ruminal pH characteristics (mean, minimum, hours and area under a respective threshold pH < 5.8 or 5.5) were not affected by treatment (Exp. 2). Although neither form of SB supplementation eliminated SARA, the duration of bouts of severe SARA (pH < 5.5) tended (P < 0.11) to be reduced for animals fed free choice SB and mix SB compared to control. Of the two approaches of delivering SB, animals consuming free choice SB had shorter bouts of SARA (P < 0.05) and a tendency towards fewer of these bouts becoming severe compared to those animals consuming mix SB (P = 0.09). However, the intake of SB offered free choice was highly variable, and even when intake of SB exceeded the recommended level, there was no correlation between SB intake and ruminal pH, indicating that other factors such as feed intake, primarily influenced ruminal pH. In conclusion, providing SB did not eliminate acidosis in cattle fed high grain diets, but offering SB free choice may have small, positive effects on reducing severity of acidosis.

description: We report on a study of the zero-momentum cyclotron spin-flip excitation in the V=2 quantum Hall regime. Using the excitonic representation the excitation energy is calculated up to the second order Coulomb corrections. A considerable negative exchange shift relative to the cyclotron gap is established for cyclotron spin-flip excitations in the the spin-unpolarized electronic system. Under these conditions this type of states presents the {\it lowest-energy} excitations. For a fixed filling factor V=2 the energy shift is independent of the magnetic field which is in agreement with recent experimental observations.

Here h stands for a charged or neutral pion or kaon and in total five decay modes are included: K-+ pi+-, K0s pi-+, K-+ pi0, pi-+ pi0 and K0s pi0. The flavor of the last decay mode is determined from the accompanying B meson. Using a data sample 4.7 times larger than that of our previous measurement, we find Acp(K-+ pi+-) -0.088+-0.035+-0.013, 2.4 sigma from zero. Results for other decay modes are also presented.

Dynamic diffractive resonant radiation in a linearly chirped nonlinear waveguide array
Creators: name: Lara, Anuj P.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We theoretically and numerically investigate the evolution of discrete soliton in a 1D linearly chirped nonlinear waveguide array (WA). The discrete soliton is self-accelerated inside the transversely chirped WA and emits a \textit{dynamic diffractive resonant radiation} (DifRR). The radiation appears when soliton wave-number matched with linear radiation wave. Unlike uniform WA, the DifRR can be excited even for zero wave-number of input soliton when the waveguide channels are chirped. The transverse modulation due to chirp conceptually imposes a linear potential which acts as a perturbation to soliton dynamics and leads to a monotonous wave-number shift of the propagating wave. Exploiting perturbative variational analysis we determine the equation of motion of soliton wave-number and use it to establish a modified phase-matching condition which takes into account the soliton wave-number shift and efficiently predicts the dynamic DifRR. A startling effect like generation of dual DifRR occurs as a result of the interplay between self-accelerated soliton and its initial wave-number. We exploit the modified phase matching relation to understand this unique phenomenon of dual radiation and find a satisfactory agreement with numerical result in radiation wave-number calculation.

description: We analyse fast reaction limit in the reaction-diffusion system with nonmonotone reaction function and one non-diffusing component. As speed of reaction tends to infinity, the concentration of non-diffusing component exhibits fast oscillations. We identify precisely its Young measure which, as a by-product, proves strong convergence of the diffusing component, a result that is not obvious from a priori estimates. Our work is based on analysis of regularization for forward-backward parabolic equations by Plotnikov. We rewrite his ideas in terms of kinetic functions which clarifies the method, brings new insights, relaxes assumptions on model functions and provides a weak formulation for the evolution of the Young measure.

description: The usage of greenery systems as nature-based solutions to assist in urban cooling in summer time as well as urban warming in wintertime is considered a scientific validated approach in urban planning. The objective of this research is the investigation and quantification of the role of green roofs and green facade solutions concerning thermal behavior in buildings energy savings by using standardized semantic city models that allow the quantification of such measures on district and city scales. The implemented model uses standardized geospatial data based on the CityGML format, a semantic city model standard, for analysis and data storage. For storage of the thermal properties of the buildings, the behavior of its occupants as well as the sensor measurements the Energy ADE of the CityGML standard was used. A green roof/façades model was implemented to simulate the heat transfer in a building based on the heat balance principle of foliage, soil, and structural layers. This model allows analyzing the thermal influence of plant and substrate layers on the heat gains from incoming solar radiation into buildings and the heat losses. This implementation was validated for cooling solutions using monitoring data from real-time experiments during summer measurements at three locations in Germany. Results from this experiment correspond well with the findings of other relevant studies. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to test the impacts of climate, substrate and plants on the greenery layer performance.

description: By using the data concerning China's urban-rural residents' income gap from 1978 to 2010, this paper mainly researches the application of several kinds of models in predicting China's urban-rural residents' income gap. By conducting empirical analysis, we establish ARIMA prediction model, grey prediction model and quadratic-polynomial prediction model and conduct accuracy comparison. The results show that quadratic-polynomial prediction model has excellent fitting effect. By using quadratic- polynomial prediction model, this paper conducts prediction on trend of China's urban-rural residents' income gap from 2011 to 2013, and the prediction value of income gap of urban-rural residents in China from 2011 to 2013 is 14 173.20, 15 212.92 and 16 289.67 yuan respectively. Finally, on the basis of analysis, corresponding countermeasures are put forward, in order to provide scientific basis for energy planning and policy formulation: first, strengthen governments function of public service, coordinate resources, and strive to provide an equal opportunity of development for social members, so as to promote people's welfare and promote social equality; second, breach industrial monopoly and bridge income gap between employees in monopoly industry and general industry; last but not the least, support, encourage and call for government to establish social relief fund, adjust residents' income distribution from the non-governmental perspective, and endeavor to promote the income level of low-income class.

We have made 3 GHz cavities with quality factors in the range 10^4--10^6, which allow access to the strong coupling regime of cQED. The cavities are transmission line resonators made by photolithography. They are coupled to the input and output ports via gap capacitors. An Al-based Cooper pair box is made by ebeam lithography and Dolan bridge double-angle evaporation in superconducting resonators with high quality factor. An important issue is to characterize the quality factor of the resonators. We present an RF-characterization of superconducting resonators as a function of temperature and magnetic field. We have realized different versions of the system with different box-cavity couplings by using different dielectrics and by changing the box geometry. Moreover, the cQED approach can be used as a diagnostic tool of qubit internal losses.

description: We analyze various possible interpretations of the narrow state $D_{sJ}(2632)$ which lies 100 MeV above threshold. This interesting state decays mainly into $D_s η$ instead of $D^0 K^+$. If this relative branching ratio is further confirmed by other experimental groups, we point out that the identification of $D_{sJ}(2632)$ either as a $c\bar s$ state or more generally as a ${\bf {\bar 3}}$ state in the $SU(3)_F$ representation is probably problematic. Instead, such an anomalous decay pattern strongly indicates $D_{sJ}(2632)$ is a four quark state in the $SU(3)_F$ ${\bf 15}$ representation with the quark content ${1\over 2\sqrt{2}} (ds\bar{d}+sd\bar{d}+su\bar{u}+us\bar{u}-2ss\bar{s})\bar{c}$. We discuss its partners in the same multiplet, and the similar four-quark states composed of a bottom quark $B_{sJ}^0(5832)$. Experimental searches of other members especially those exotic ones are strongly called for.

description: It is often desirable to enhance the motility of active nano- or microscale swimmers such as, e.g., self-propelled Janus particles as agents of chemical reactions or weak sperm cells for better chances of successful fertilization. Here we tackle this problem based on the idea that motility can be transferred from a more active guest species to a less active host species. We performed numerical simulations of motility transfer in two typical cases, namely for interacting particles with weak inertia effect, by analyzing their velocity distributions, and for interacting overdamped particles, by studying their effusion rate. In both cases we detected motility transfer with a motility enhancement of the host species of up to a factor of four. This technique of motility enhancement can find applications in chemistry, biology and medicine.

description: We employ physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) to infer properties of biological materials using synthetic data. In particular, we successfully apply PINNs on inferring the thrombus permeability and visco-elastic modulus from thrombus deformation data, which can be described by the fourth-order Cahn-Hilliard and Navier-Stokes Equations. In PINNs, the partial differential equations are encoded into the loss function, where partial derivatives can be obtained through automatic differentiation (AD). In addition, to tackling the challenge of calculating the fourth-order derivative in the Cahn-Hilliard equation with AD, we introduce an auxiliary network along with the main neural network to approximate the second-derivative of the energy potential term. Our model can predict simultaneously unknown parameters and velocity, pressure, and deformation gradient fields by merely training with partial information among all data, i.e., phase-field and pressure measurements, and is also highly flexible in sampling within the spatio-temporal domain for data acquisition. We validate our model by numerical solutions from the spectral/\textit{hp} element method (SEM) and demonstrate its robustness by training it with noisy measurements. Our results show that PINNs can accurately infer the material properties with noisy synthetic data, and thus they have great potential for inferring these properties from experimental multi-modality and multi-fidelity data.

Self-organized Criticality and Absorbing States: Lessons from the Ising Model

description: We investigate a suggested path to self-organized criticality. Originally, this path was devised to "generate criticality" in systems displaying an absorbing-state phase transition, but closer examination of the mechanism reveals that it can be used for any continuous phase transition. We used the Ising model as well as the Manna model to demonstrate how the finite-size scaling exponents depend on the tuning of driving and dissipation rates with system size.Our findings limit the explanatory power of the mechanism to non-universal critical behavior.

description: Greater Vancouver has experienced a dramatic influx of international immigration in the past three decades. This demographic change has two major implications for sustainable development in this region. First, the increase of population is placing great pressure on the environment and maintaining the current quality of life. Second, while it is critical to include the rapidly-growing immigrant population in the Greater Vancouver region's sustainability initiatives, the increasing ethnic diversity of this region raises issues of communication and cross-cultural understanding. This exploratory study examines Chinese immigrants housing preferences and explores their implications for sustainable community development in Greater Vancouver. This study focuses on Chinese immigrants because they have an increasing influence on the region's physical, cultural and political landscape. Through 30 in-depth interviews with Chinese immigrants of qualitatively different backgrounds, this study examined preferences for home location, attributes of dwelling, and its proximal space. The study employed grounded theory approach assisted with picture comparison and trade-off game techniques. Results indicate that Chinese immigrants' housing aspirations are strongly influenced by a desire to assimilate into mainstream culture in North America. Further, considerations of traditional Chinese v housing form and style are not a priority among the study group. However, an array of social and economic constraints and priorities inform their housing choices. Amenities that are important to Chinese immigrants are identified for various aspects of a community. A number of recommendations are drawn from these priorities and preferences, which may be applied by planners, policy makers, designers and developers of sustainable communities for Chinese immigrant populations. Additional observations on language barriers, civic involvement, and community outreach programs suggest challenges and opportunities to promote sustainable living among Chinese immigrants.

description: The relationship between urban-rural integration and regional economic integration is summarized in the paper. Based on the fact, it expressed the necessity and realistic meaning of pushing forward the urban-rural integration process synchronously during Jiuquan-jia yuguan (abbreviate: Jiu-jia ) areas economic integration. The current degree of the urban-rural integration of Jiu-jia was analyzed by index calculation, and the related conclusions were obtained. Besides, me development concepts and the key works to accelerate the process of Jiu-jia urban-rural integration were suggested. The results show that the overall level of urban-rural integration in Jiuquan and Jiayuguan is higher than the average level of Gansu Province, but the urban-rural economic development and social development lose the balance and the dual structure is prominent. In the end, three developmental patterns for accelerating me developmental process of urban -rural integration are put forward. Firstly, the government should find the key of the current work and coordinate the construction of infrastructure. Secondly, rural economic industrialization should be promoted. Thirdly, the urbanized social management should be promoted.
