description: To shed light on the fundamental problems posed by Dark Energy and Dark Matter, a large number of experiments have been performed and combined to constrain cosmological models. We propose a novel way of quantifying the information gained by updates on the parameter constraints from a series of experiments which can either complement earlier measurements or replace them. For this purpose, we use the Kullback-Leibler divergence or relative entropy from information theory to measure differences in the posterior distributions in model parameter space from a pair of experiments. We apply this formalism to a historical series of Cosmic Microwave Background experiments ranging from Boomerang to WMAP, SPT, and Planck. Considering different combinations of these experiments, we thus estimate the information gain in units of bits and distinguish contributions from the reduction of statistical errors and the `surprise' corresponding to a significant shift of the parameters' central values. For this experiment series, we find individual relative entropy gains ranging from about 1 to 30 bits. In some cases, e.g. when comparing WMAP and Planck results, we find that the gains are dominated by the surprise rather than by improvements in statistical precision. We discuss how this technique provides a useful tool for both quantifying the constraining power of data from cosmological probes and detecting the tensions between experiments.

description: Generalized Dirac equation with operator mass term is presented. Its solutions are non standard (ELKO) spinors which are eigenvectors of the charge conjugation and dual helicity operators. It is demonstrated that in spite of their non covariant nature ELKO can serve as a carrier space of a representation of Poincaré group. However, the corresponding boost generators are not manifestly covariant and generate non-local momentum dependent transformations which are presented explicitly. These results present a new look on group-theoretical grounds of ELKO theories.

description: 3H-spiroperidol binding to peripheral blood mononuclear cells was measured in 28 patients, who fulfilled DSM-III-R-criteria for schizophrenia and 17 healthy subjects. There were no significant differences in characteristic binding parameters (Kd, Bmax) between schizophrenic and healthy subjects. Moreover, there was no relation of binding parameters to any of the subtypes of schizophrenia or to the course of illness according to DSM-III-R-criteria. However, some patients exhibited higher Bmax values without having a unique clinical symptomatology according to known diagnostic criteria. Neuroleptic treatment had no consistent effect on binding parameters intraindividually. Kd and Bmax values were not related to age or gender. In conclusion, despite our previously reported improved methodology, we were not able to corroborate the clinical importance of this "peripheral marker" as a tool for diagnosing schizophrenia or for predicting the response to neuroleptic treatment in our sample of schizophrenic patients.

description: 3H-spiroperidol binding to lymphocytes has been proposed as a vulnerability marker for schizophrenia. However, the biological significance and even existence of this "binding site" are still in controversy. Therefore, the present study reevaluated methodological details using a filtration binding assay. The results indicated that some well-known, but obviously uncontrolled pitfalls might contribute to this controversy [e.g., unspecific filter binding, which increased in the presence of (+)-butaclamol, or a variable amount of contaminating granulocytes). Moreover, due to an atypically shaped saturation curve, different mathematical methods to analyze the data were used and compared. The present data should help us to understand the biological relevance of this marker, as viewed in different laboratories.

Liouville theorems and $1$-dimensional symmetry for solutions of an elliptic system modelling phase separation

description: We consider solutions of the competitive elliptic system \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -Δu_i = - \sum_{j \neq i} u_i u_j^2 & \text{in $\mathbb{R}^N$} \\ u_i >0 & \text{in $\mathbb{R}^N$} \end{array}\right. \qquad i=1,\dots,k. \] We are concerned with the classification of entire solutions, according with their growth rate. The prototype of our main results is the following: there exists a function $δ=δ(k,N) \in \mathbb{N}$, increasing in $k$, such that if $(u_1,\dots,u_k)$ is a solution and \[ u_1(x)+\cdots+u_k(x) \le C(1+|x|^d) \qquad \text{for every $x \in \mathbb{R}^N$}, \] then $d \ge δ$. This means that the number of components $k$ of the solution imposes an increasing in $k$ minimal growth on the solution itself. If $N=2$, the expression of $δ$ is explicit and optimal, while in higher dimension it can be characterized in terms of an optimal partition problem. We discuss the sharpness of our results and, as a further step, for every $N \ge 2$ we can prove the $1$-dimensional symmetry of the solutions satisfying suitable assumptions, extending known results which are available for $k=2$. The proofs rest upon a blow-down analysis and on some monotonicity formulae.

description: This follow-up study investigated lymphocyte blastogenesis induced by concanavalin A, phytohemagglutinin A, and pokeweed mitogen and their sensitivity to in vitro dexamethasone administration in 12 patients clinically recovered from severe major depression. Although cortisol-levels at 4.00 p.m. decreased significantly after clinical remission, mitogen-driven lymphocyte proliferative responses were unchanged when assessed intra-individually. No impairment of in vitro glucocorticoid-sensitivity of lectin-induced lymphocyte blastogenesis could be observed in clinically recovered patients. The inhibitory potency of in vitro dexamethasone was found to be inversely correlated with in vivo adrenal cortical hormone levels. There were no correlations with age, weight, sex, antidepressant medication, severity or duration of depression. No differences from age- and sex-matched healthy individuals were found. These results indicate that reduced glucocorticoid receptor sensitivity occurs only during the acute depressive illness.

description: The 'designer drug' 3,4-methylenedioxy-metamphetamine (MDMA; 'Ecstasy'), which has become increasingly popular in the past few years, is supposed to induce a feeling of euphoria with amphetamine-like stimulant effects. It was for some time considered harmless, but neurotoxic effects on serotonergic neurons are now well documented. To supplement case reports on different drug-induced psychopathological and somatic complications published in recent literature, the case of a 21-year-old female patient is reported, who exhibited a protracted psychotic depersonalization disorder with suicidal tendency after the first intake of two tablets of "ecstasy". In the course of six months the symptoms remitted only gradually despite administration of a serotonin re-uptake inhibitor, 'flash-backs' occurring repeatedly.

description: The mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferative response and its sensitivity to in vitro (10(-10)-10(-6) M) dexamethasone (DEX) administration were investigated in 12 severely depressed patients and 13 healthy controls. Patients with major depressive disorder exhibited no impairment of lectin-induced blastogenesis, but a significantly weaker suppressive effect of in vitro DEX on 1.0 microgram/ml phytohemagglutinin A-induced proliferation. The inhibitory potency of in vitro DEX was inversely correlated with in vivo adrenal cortical hormone levels at 4.00 p.m. These effects were not observed with pokeweed mitogen- and concanavalin A-stimulated cells. There were no correlations with age, weight, sex or severity of depression. These results do not support the hypothesis of a primarily impaired cell-mediated immunity, but might be indicative of reduced glucocorticoid receptor sensitivity in major depressive disorder.

description: Today's companies are under considerable strain. Several events or developments such as the global economic crises or the ongoing globalization process contribute to this situation. Meanwhile, however, companies have realized that the concept of virtual organizations represents an ecient measure to counter the current challenges. More and more companies make use of this concept supported by technologies like collaboration platforms. However, the application of such collaboration platforms brings along some changes for organizations in doing their business. For instance, interaction between people, who could not get in touch before,is thereby fostered in particular. Employees of dierent organizations, even across countries boundaries, can set up new relationships due to the deployment of collaboration platforms. This paper analyses the impact of collaboration platforms and their eects on the daily business of organizations.

description: A number of bioinformatic or biostatistical methods are available for analyzing DNA copy number profiles measured from microarray or sequencing technologies. In the absence of rich enough gold standard data sets, the performance of these methods is generally assessed using unrealistic simulation studies, or based on small real data analyses. We have designed and implemented a framework to generate realistic DNA copy number profiles of cancer samples with known truth. These profiles are generated by resampling real SNP microarray data from genomic regions with known copy-number state. The original real data have been extracted from dilutions series of tumor cell lines with matched blood samples at several concentrations. Therefore, the signal-to-noise ratio of the generated profiles can be controlled through the (known) percentage of tumor cells in the sample. In this paper, we describe this framework and illustrate some of the benefits of the proposed data generation approach on a practical use case: a comparison study between methods for segmenting DNA copy number profiles from SNP microarrays. This study indicates that no single method is uniformly better than all others. It also helps identifying pros and cons for the compared methods as a function of biologically informative parameters, such as the fraction of tumor cells in the sample and the proportion of heterozygous markers.

description: The Hamiltonian formulation of Mimetic Gravity is formulated. Although there are two more equations than those of general relativity, these are proved to be the constraint equation and the conservation of energy-momentum tensor. The Poisson brackets are then computed and closure is proved. At the end, Wheeler-DeWitt equation was solved for a homogeneous and isotropic universe. This was done first for a vanishing potential where agreement with the dust case was shown, and then for a constant potential.

description: We study N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories on squashed 3-sphere and S^1xS^2. Recent studies have shown that the partition functions in a class of N=2 theories have factorized forms in terms of vortex and anti-vortex partition functions by explicitly evaluating matrix integrals obtained from Coulomb branch localization. We directly derive this structure by performing Higgs branch localization. It turns out that more general N=2 theories have this factorization property. We also discuss the factorization of supersymmetric Wilson loop.

description: Neutral quantum absorbers in optical lattices have emerged as a leading platform for achieving clocks with exquisite spectroscopic resolution. However, the studies of these clocks and their systematic shifts have so far been limited to atoms. Here, we extend this architecture to an ensemble of diatomic molecules and experimentally realize an accurate lattice clock based on pure molecular vibration. We evaluate the leading systematics, including the characterization of nonlinear trap-induced light shifts, achieving a total systematic uncertainty of $4.6\times10^{-14}$. The absolute frequency of the vibrational splitting is measured to be 31 825 183 207 592.8(5.1) Hz, enabling the dissociation energy of our molecule to be determined with record accuracy. Our results represent an important milestone in molecular spectroscopy and THz-frequency standards, and may be generalized to other neutral molecular species with applications for fundamental physics, including tests of molecular quantum electrodynamics and the search for new interactions.

To address this issue, we developed an open-source lipid bilayer amplifier, the OpenPicoAmp, which is appropriate for use in introductory courses in biophysics or neurosciences dealing with the electrical properties of the cell membrane. The amplifier is designed using the common lithographic printed circuit board fabrication process and off-the-shelf electronic components. In addition, we propose a specific design for experimental chambers allowing the insertion of a commercially available polytetrafluoroethylene film. This experimental setup can be used in simple experiments in which students monitor the bilayer formation by capacitance measurement and record unitary currents produced by ionic channels like gramicidin A. Used in combination with a low-cost data acquisition board this system provides a complete solution for hands-on lessons, therefore improving the effectiveness in teaching basic neurosciences or biophysics.

description: In Indian financial system Indian banking sector is an integral part, which has undergone dramatic change ever science L P G has taken place. India is the largest country having many and varied financial institutions both public and private banks, who are controlled and governed by the reserve bank of India, and ministry of finance. After independence, government of India took an important step, by introducing reforms in the structure of Indian banks. In 1955, the imperial bank of India was nationalized and was given the name SBI, to act as the principal agent of RBI and was given the right to handle banking transaction all over the country. In the early years of 1990 s when the government of India opened the market through LPG, many private and foreign banks rushed to set up their business in India, as there was a gap. In order to pull up the socks and prepare our banking sector for this change, the Indian government started diluting its equity in public sector banks from early 1990 s in a phased manner. In recent years the economist and banking sector specialist witnessed that though the public banks infrastructure and size of business is too large and have enough experience, but they are facing the problems and difficulties from the functioning of private banks. The main point or focus is of survival for the public bank is to innovate and to take advantage of the new business opportunities and at the same time ensure continuous assessment of risks.

description: We study the phases and dynamics of a gas of monodisperse particles interacting via soft-core potentials in two spatial dimensions, which is of interest for soft-matter colloidal systems and quantum atomic gases. Using exact theoretical methods, we demonstrate that the equilibrium low-temperature classical phase simultaneously breaks continuous translational symmetry and dynamic space-time homogeneity, whose absence is usually associated with out-of-equilibrium glassy phenomena. This results in an exotic self-assembled cluster crystal with coexisting liquid-like long-time dynamical properties, which corresponds to a classical analog of supersolid behavior. We demonstrate that the effects of quantum fluctuations and bosonic statistics on cluster-glassy crystals are separate and competing: zero-point motion tends to destabilize crystalline order, which can be restored by bosonic statistics.

description: In a “networked enterprise”, distributed teams of partner organizations, humans, computer applications, au- tonomous robots, and devices are interlinked to collaborate with each other in order to achieve higher pro- ductivity and to perform joint projects or produce joint products that would have been impossible to develop without the contributions of multiple collaborators. Within a collaboration, security aspects are of critical importance. This is in particular true for loosely coupled collaborations in which individual members of one alliance are working with each other within a certain project only, but may be competitors in other market fields at the same time. Going beyond the current state of the art in portal-based collaboration platforms, this paper presents an approach to prevent unintended information disclosure by malicious portlet instances. The solution is built on open standards (JSR 286 and XACML) and may be incorporated in collaboration-wide enterprise portals in order to regulate information flow during inter-portlet communication.

description: We prove two main results: (a) Suppose $L$ is a closed, embedded, exact special Lagrangian $m$-fold in ${\mathbb C}^m$ for $m\ge 3$ asymptotic at infinity to the union $Π_1\cupΠ_2$ of two transverse special Lagrangian planes $Π_1,Π_2$ in ${\mathbb C}^m$. Then $L$ is one of the explicit 'Lawlor neck' family of examples found by Lawlor (Invent. math. 95, 1989). (b) Suppose $L$ is a closed, embedded, exact Lagrangian mean curvature flow expander in ${\mathbb C}^m$ for $m\ge 3$ asymptotic at infinity to the union $Π_1\cupΠ_2$ of two transverse Lagrangian planes $Π_1,Π_2$ in ${\mathbb C}^m$. Then $L$ is one of the explicit family of examples found by Joyce, Lee and Tsui, arXiv:0801.3721. If instead $L$ is immersed rather than embedded, the only extra possibility in (a),(b) is $L=Π_1\cupΠ_2$. Our methods, which are new and can probably be used to prove other similar uniqueness theorems, involve $J$-holomorphic curves, Lagrangian Floer cohomology, and Fukaya categories from symplectic topology. When $m=2$, (a) is easy to prove using hyperkahler geometry, and (b) is proved by Lotay and Neves, arXiv:1208.2729.

 Page | 6 will have to decide when and where genetic engineering is safe enough”. Arguments both for and against the cultivation and use of the GM crops are varied and there is a wide consensus that assessment should take place on a case-by-case basis before genetically modified food is brought to the market. These assessments should be done by Government or an independent credible regulatory authority or private agencies and these should not be driven by any commercial interests. Moreover, educating public opinion is also very important as food is always a sensitive cultural issue. Merely indicating whether a product is genetically modified or not, without providing any additional vital information, would not serve any purpose; rather information on its content and possible risks or benefits should be provided. To sum up in the words of M.S. Swaminathan “GM foods have the potential to solve many of the world’s hunger and malnutrition problems, and to help protect and preserve the environment by increasing yield and reducing reliance upon chemical pesticides.

description: Two methods of constructing 2D Toda $τ$-functions that are generating functions for certain geometrical invariants of a combinatorial nature are related. The first involves generation of paths in the Cayley graph of the symmetric group $S_n$ by multiplication of the conjugacy class sums $C_λ\in C[S_n]$ in the group algebra by elements of an abelian group of central elements. Extending the characteristic map to the tensor product $C[S_n]\otimes C[S_n]$ leads to double expansions in terms of power sum symmetric functions, in which the coefficients count the number of such paths. Applying the same map to sums over the orthogonal idempotents leads to diagonal double Schur function expansions that are identified as $τ$-functions of hypergeometric type. The second method is the standard construction of $τ$-functions as vacuum state matrix elements of products of vertex operators in a fermionic Fock space with elements of the abelian group of convolution symmetries. A homomorphism between these two group actions is derived and shown to be intertwined by the characteristic map composed with fermionization. Applications include Okounkov's generating function for double Hurwitz numbers, which count branched coverings of the Riemann sphere with nonminimal branching at two points, and various analogous combinatorial counting functions.

description: We investigate some topological properties, in particular formality, of compact Sasakian manifolds. Answering some questions raised by Boyer and Galicki, we prove that all higher (than three) Massey products on any compact Sasakian manifold vanish. Hence, higher Massey products do obstruct Sasakian structures. Using this we produce a method of constructing simply connected K-contact non-Sasakian manifolds. On the other hand, for every $n \geq 3$, we exhibit the first examples of simply connected compact Sasakian manifolds of dimension $2n + 1$ which are non-formal. They are non-formal because they have a non-zero triple Massey product. We also prove that arithmetic lattices in some simple Lie groups cannot be the fundamental group of a compact Sasakian manifold.

Critical edge behavior in the modified Jacobi ensemble and Painlevé equations

description: We study the Jacobi unitary ensemble perturbed by an algebraic singularity at $t>1$. For fixed $t$, this is the modified Jacobi ensemble studied by Kuijlaars {\it{et al.}} The main focus here, however, is the case when the algebraic singularity approaches the hard edge, namely $t\to 1^+$. In the double scaling limit case when $t- 1$ is of the order of magnitude of $1/n^2$, $n$ being the size of the matrix, the eigenvalue correlation kernel is shown to have a new limiting kernel at the hard edge $1$, described by the $ψ$-functions for a certain second-order nonlinear equation. The equation is related to the Painlevé III equation by a Möbius transformation. It also furnishes a generalization of the Painlevé V equation, and can be reduced to a particular Painlevé V equation via the Bäcklund transformations in special cases. The transitions of the limiting kernel to Bessel kernels are also investigated, with $n^2(t-1)$ being large or small. In the present paper, the approach is based on the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent analysis for Riemann-Hilbert problems.

Quantum Local Quench, AdS/BCFT and Yo-Yo String

description: We propose a holographic model for local quench in 1+1 dimensional Conformal Field Theory (CFT). The local quench is produced by joining two identical CFT's on semi-infinite lines. When these theories have a zero boundary entropy, we use the AdS/Boundary CFT proposal to describe this process in terms of bulk physics. Boundaries of the original CFT's are extended in AdS as dynamical surfaces. In our holographic picture these surfaces detach from the boundary and form a closed folded string which can propagate in the bulk. The dynamics of this string is governed by the tensionless Yo-Yo string solution and its subsequent evolution determines the time dependence after quench. We use this model to calculate holographic Entanglement Entropy (EE) of an interval as a function of time. We propose how the falling string deforms Ryu-Takayanagi's curves. Using the deformed curves we calculate EE and find complete agreement with field theory results.

Unsupervised Visual Odometry and Action Integration for PointGoal Navigation in Indoor Environment

description: PointGoal navigation in indoor environment is a fundamental task for personal robots to navigate to a specified point. Recent studies solved this PointGoal navigation task with near-perfect success rate in photo-realistically simulated environments, under the assumptions with noiseless actuation and most importantly, perfect localization with GPS and compass sensors. However, accurate GPS signalis difficult to be obtained in real indoor environment. To improve the PointGoal navigation accuracy without GPS signal, we use visual odometry (VO) and propose a novel action integration module (AIM) trained in unsupervised manner. Sepecifically, unsupervised VO computes the relative pose of the agent from the re-projection error of two adjacent frames, and then replaces the accurate GPS signal with the path integration. The pseudo position estimated by VO is used to train action integration which assists agent to update their internal perception of location and helps improve the success rate of navigation. The training and inference process only use RGB, depth, collision as well as self-action information. The experiments show that the proposed system achieves satisfactory results and outperforms the partially supervised learning algorithms on the popular Gibson dataset.

description: We investigate temperature-dependent resonance fluorescence spectra obtained from a single self-assembled quantum dot. A decrease of the Mollow triplet sideband splitting is observed with increasing temperature, an effect we attribute to a phonon-induced renormalisation of the driven dot Rabi frequency. We also present first evidence for a non-perturbative regime of phonon coupling, in which the expected linear increase in sideband linewidth as a function of temperature is cancelled by the corresponding reduction in Rabi frequency. These results indicate that dephasing in semiconductor quantum dots may be less sensitive to changes in temperature than expected from a standard weak-coupling analysis of phonon effects.

description: In an era where technology permeates every facet of our daily lives, education has undergone a profound transformation. The introduction of Computer-Based Assessment (CBA) has revolutionized assessment methods in higher education institutions (HEIs). Leveraging the research of Terzis and Economides, pioneers in the field, who have developed the Computer-Based Assessment Acceptance Model (CBAAM), synthesizing constructs from established models like the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Usage of Technology (UTAUT). This study, "Assessing the Impact of Computer-Based Assessment on Higher Education: Student Perceptions and Challenges," seeks to examine how students have embraced this innovative approach. To achieve this, university students actively participated, and data was collected through a comprehensive survey questionnaire completed by a sample of 255 students. The research reveals a predominantly positive perception among students regarding the use of CBA. However, students acknowledge the existence of challenges with CBA. These findings have significant implications for university administrators, emphasizing the need for meticulous development of CBA systems to mitigate the inherent challenges. This research provides an in-depth discussion of the study's results, offering valuable insights into the ongoing discourse on the effective integration of technology in education.
