description: By combining Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and ground based optical and near-infrared photometric samples, we derive the RGB tip absolute magnitude of 22 galactic globular clusters (GGCs). The effects of varying the distance and the metallicity scales are also investigated. Then we compare the observed tip luminosities with those predicted by state-of-the-art stellar models that include the energy-loss due to the axion production in the degenerate core of red giant stars. We find that theoretical predictions including only the energy-loss by plasma neutrinos are, in general, in good agreement with the observed tip bolometric magnitudes, even though the latter are about 0.04 mag brighter, on the average. This small shift may be the result of systematic errors affecting the evaluation of the RGB tip bolometric magnitudes or, alternatively, it could be ascribed to an axion-electron coupling causing a non-negligible thermal production of axions. In order to estimate the strength of this possible axion sink, we perform a cumulative likelihood analysis using the RGB tips of the whole set of 22 GGCs. All the possible source of uncertainties affecting both the measured bolometric magnitudes and the corresponding theoretical predictions are carefully considered. As a result, we find that the value of the axion-electron coupling parameter that maximizes the likelihood probability is gae/10^13=0.60(+0.32;-0.58). This hint is valid, however, if the dominant energy sinks operating in the core of red giant stars are standard neutrinos and axions coupled with electrons. Any additional energy-loss process, not included in the stellar models, would reduce such a hint. Nevertheless, we find that values gae/10^13 > 1.48 can be excluded with a 95% of confidence.

Πολύτιμη είναι η προσφορά του εθελοντισμού και της αναδοχής καθώς αποτελούν δύο δράσεις που η κάθε μια από την πλευρά της έχει ιδιαίτερη και ξεχωριστή σημασία, καθώς προσφέρουν σημαντική βοήθεια και διευκόλυνση και δρουν υποστηρικτικά τόσο στο έργο που επιτελεί η πολιτεία, όσο και η εκκλησία.
description: This dissertation focuses on the recording of social and religious institutions and services for the reception of immigrants, as well as on the activities and facilities offered by each institution to the immigrants. The focal point of this research is the juvenile immigrant and the difficulties he/she faces in Greece, in particular the city of Salonika, as this is shown through the various appeals for consultative and practical aid to the institutions for the reception of immigrants. This dissertation has searched for its samples methodologically in the area of those services to which most juvenile immigrants appeal for help, as far as the issues of accommodation or other facilities, such as medical care, clothing, provision of food, are concerned. These individuals and the institutions for the reception of immigrants, through their knowledge, their experiences and their speculations, enlighten all aspects of the great immigration issue. The contribution of volunteering and sponsorship is invaluable as they are both actions that each, in their own way, play a special and distinctive role, as they offer significant help and facilitation and they also act supportively to the work of both the government and the church.

description: A model for high-energy, small-angle pion-nucleus bremsstrahlung, $ π^- +A\toπ^- +γ+A$,is developed within the Glauber diffraction theory. Special attention is focussed on the possibility of measuring the pion polarisability in such reactions. That is the case under the Coulomb peak provided the bremsstrahlung photon carries practically all the energy of the incident pion. Only radiation from external legs is considered.

description: At the present master thesis we use weighted finite automata (WFA) with discounting with weights over the max-plus semiring. We make a short reference to essential applications of WFA such as online algorithms, digital image compression and speech to text processing protocols. We present an algorithm in order to a-determinize a nondeterministic WFA. With this algorithm we obtain the ability to check whether there exists an equivalent deterministic WFA embodied in the initial nondeterministic WFA. Moreover, we show that this procedure can be carried out in polynomial time.

description: Propagation features of circularly polarized (CP) electromagnetic waves in magnetized plasmas are determined by the plasma density and the magnetic field strength. This property can be applied to design a unique plasma photonic device for intense short-pulse lasers. We have demonstrated by numerical simulations that a thin plasma foil under an external magnetic field works as a polarizing plate to separate a linearly polarized laser into two CP waves traveling in the opposite direction. This plasma photonic device has an advantage for generating intense CP waves even with a relativistic amplitude. For various research purposes, intense CP lights are strongly required to create high energy density plasmas in the laboratory.

Gravitational theories coupled to matter as invariant theories under Kac-Moody algebras
Creators: name: Tabti, Nassiba
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Many recent researches indicate that several gravitational D-dimensional theories suitably coupled to some matter fields (including in particular pure gravity in D dimensions, the low energy effective actions of the bosonic string and the bosonic sector of M-theory) would be characterized by infinite dimensional Kac-Moody algebras G^{++} and G^{+++}. The possible existence of these extended symmetries motivates a development of a new description of gravitational theories based on these symmetries. The importance of Kac-Moody algebras and the link between the G^{+++}-invariant theories and the uncompactified space-time covariant theories are discussed.

description: Large-scale human mobility exhibits spatial and temporal patterns that can assist policymakers in decision making. Although traditional prediction models attempt to capture these patterns, they often interfered by non-periodic public events, such as disasters and occasional celebrations. Since regular human mobility patterns are heavily affected by these events, estimating their causal effects is critical to accurate mobility predictions. Although news articles provide unique perspectives on these events in an unstructured format, processing is a challenge. In this study, we propose a causality-augmented prediction model, called CausalMob, to analyze the causal effects of public events. We first utilize large language models (LLMs) to extract human intentions from news articles and transform them into features that act as causal treatments. Next, the model learns representations of spatio-temporal regional covariates from multiple data sources to serve as confounders for causal inference. Finally, we present a causal effect estimation framework to ensure event features remain independent of confounders during prediction. Based on large-scale real-world data, the experimental results show that the proposed model excels in human mobility prediction, outperforming state-of-the-art models.

title: Topics in graph colouring
Creators: name: Xu, Xinyi
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2023

description: In this thesis, we study two variants of graph (vertex) colourings: multicolouring and correspondence colouring. In ordinary graph colouring, each vertex receives a colour. Such a colouring is proper if adjacent vertices receive different colours. In k-multi-colouring, each vertex receives a set of k colours, and such a multi-colouring is proper if adjacent vertices receive disjoint set of colours. A graph is (n, k)-colourable if there is a proper k-multi-colouring of it using n colours. In the first part of the thesis, we study the following two questions. 1. For given n, k and n′, k′, if a graph is (n, k)-colourable, then what is the largest subgraph of it that is (n′, k′)-colourable? 2. For given n, k, if a graph is (n, k)-colourable, then for what n′, k′ is the whole graph (n′, k′)-colourable? Question 1 is inspired by a partial colouring conjecture asked by Albertson, Grossman, and Haas [2] in 2000 regarding list colouring. We obtain exact answers for specific values of the parameters, and upper and lower bounds on the largest (n′, k′)-colourable subgraph for general values of n′, k′. For Question 2, we first observe how it can be reformulated into a conjecture by Stahl from 1976 regarding Kneser graphs, and prove new results towards Stahl’s conjecture. In the second part of the thesis, we study another variant of colouring, which is known as correspondence colouring. In correspondence colouring, each vertex is associated with a prespecified list of colours, and there is prespecified correspondence associated with each edge specifying which pair of colours from the two endvertices correspond. (On each edge, a colour on one endvertex corresponds to at most one colour on the other endvertex.) A correspondence colouring is proper if each vertex receives a colour from its prespecified list, and that for each edge, the colours on its endvertices do not correspond. A graph is n-correspondence-colourable if a proper correspondence colouring exist for any prespecified correspondences on any prespecified n-colour-lists associated to each vertex. As correspondence colouring is a generalisation of list colouring, it is natural to ask whether Albertson, Grossman, and Haas’ conjecture can be generalised to correspondence colouring. Unfortunately, there are graphs on which their conjectured value does not hold, and we will present a series of them. We then study: for given n and n′, how many vertices of a n-correspondence colourable graph can always be properly correspondence-coloured with arbitrary correspondences and arbitrary n′-colour-lists on that graph? We generalise some results from the original conjecture in list colouring. Then we discuss some sufficient conditions for a proper correspondence colouring to exist. The correspondence chromatic number of a graph is the smallest n such that the graph is n-correspondence colourable. We study how different graph operations affect the correspondence chromatic number of multigraphs, in which multiple edges are allowed.

description: We demonstrate the feasibility of determining magnitudes of stars on archival photographic plates using a commercially available scanner. We describe one photometric approach that could serve as a useful example for other studies. In particular, we measure and calibrate stellar magnitudes from a 1903 photographic plate from the Yerkes Observatory collection, and demonstrate that the overall precision from our methods is better than 0.10 mag. Notably, these measurements are dominated by intrinsic plate noise, rather than noise introduced through the scanning/digitization process. The low expense of this approach expands the scientific potential to study variable stars in the archives of observatory plate collections. We use the serendipitous discovery of a candidate transient at photographic magnitude $pg$ = 16.60 in the spiral galaxy NGC 7331 to illustrate our photometric methods. If this unknown source is a supernova, it would represent the fourth known supernova in NGC 7331.

description: The distinction between productive and non-productive labor is the most contestable in the history of economic analysis. The purpose of this paper is not to present a critical review of the existing literature nor to notify my participation in the various controversies on this subject, but through it I will try to provide more details and findings of the big importance of this distinction mainly in the current Greek reality, through a short but by no means indifferent piece of research. More specifically, our aim is to measure - categorize the sectors of the Greek economy in productive and non-productive, and then observing their evolution in the course of the last decade, coupled with the development of certain macroeconomic variables I’ m going to explain the current economic crisis in Greece, through the prism of this distinction. The methodology used is associated with the national accounts and their correlation with the Marxian categories.

description: In the context of time-series forecasting, we propose a LSTM-based recurrent neural network architecture and loss function that enhance the stability of the predictions. In particular, the loss function penalizes the model, not only on the prediction error (mean-squared error), but also on the predicted variation error. We apply this idea to the prediction of future glucose values in diabetes, which is a delicate task as unstable predictions can leave the patient in doubt and make him/her take the wrong action, threatening his/her life. The study is conducted on type 1 and type 2 diabetic people, with a focus on predictions made 30-minutes ahead of time. First, we confirm the superiority, in the context of glucose prediction, of the LSTM model by comparing it to other state-of-the-art models (Extreme Learning Machine, Gaussian Process regressor, Support Vector Regressor). Then, we show the importance of making stable predictions by smoothing the predictions made by the models, resulting in an overall improvement of the clinical acceptability of the models at the cost in a slight loss in prediction accuracy. Finally, we show that the proposed approach, outperforms all baseline results. More precisely, it trades a loss of 4.3\% in the prediction accuracy for an improvement of the clinical acceptability of 27.1\%. When compared to the moving average post-processing method, we show that the trade-off is more efficient with our approach.

description: We present a new perspective on the crystallinity of dust in protoplanetary disks. The dominant crystallization by thermal annealing happens in the very early phases of disk formation and evolution. Both the disk properties and the level of crystallinity are thereby directly linked to the properties of the molecular cloud core from which the star+disk system was formed. We show that, under the assumption of single star formation, rapidly rotating clouds produce disks which, after the main infall phase (i.e. in the optically revealed class II phase), are rather massive and have a high accretion rate but low crystallinity. Slowly rotating clouds, on the other hand, produce less massive disks with lower accretion rate, but high levels of crystallinity. Cloud fragmentation and the formation of multiple stars complicates the problem and necessitates further study. The underlying physics of the model is insufficiently understood to provide the precise relationship between crystallinity, disk mass and accretion rate. But the fact that with `standard' input physics the model produces disks which, in comparison to observations, appear to have either too high levels of crystallinity or too high disk masses, demonstrates that the comparison of these models to observations can place strong contraints on the disk physics. The question to ask is not why some sources are so crystalline, but why some other sources have such a low level of crystallinity.

description: The standard collective quantization treatment of the strangeness content of the nucleon in chiral soliton models such as the Skyrmion is shown to be inconsistent with the semi-classical expansion on which the treatment is based. The strangeness content vanishes at leading order in the semi-classical expansion. Collective quantization correctly describes some contributions to the strangeness content at the first nonvanishing order in the expansion, but neglects others at the same order--namely, those associated with continuum modes. Moreover, there are fundamental difficulties in computing at a constant order in the expansion due to the non-renormalizable nature of chiral soliton models. Moreover, there are fundamental difficulties in computing at a constant order in the expansion due to the non-renormalizable nature of chiral soliton models and the absence of any viable power counting scheme. We show that the continuum mode contribution to the strangeness diverges, and as a result the computation of the strangeness content at leading non-vanishing order is not a well-posed mathematical problem in these models.

description: Κατά πολλούς ερευνητές [1][2][5][6], ο Benedetto Croce υπήρξε ένας εκ των κυριοτέρων πρωταγωνιστών της ιταλικής πολιτιστικής ζωής κατά το πρώτο μισό του 20ου αιώνα. Αυτό διότι επηρέασε καθοριστικά τη φιλοσοφική σκέψη της εποχής του, ως θεωρητικός της τέχνης, ιστορικός και κριτικός, αλλά και με τις πολιτικές του απόψεις [29]. Η σημαντικότατη επιρροή που άσκησε η αισθητική θεωρία του Benedetto Croce στην κριτική της τέχνης του προηγούμενου αιώνα υπήρξε το έναυσμα της παρούσας εργασίας. Έτσι, η εργασία επιχειρεί, μέσω της μελέτης διαφόρων έργων του Benedetto Croce αλλά κυρίως της γνωστότατης Αισθητικής του, να αναλύσει τις απόψεις του Benedetto Croce περί αισθητικής και να πραγματοποιήσει μια κριτηριακή ανάλυση επ’ αυτών, χρησιμοποιώντας τόσο μια εκτενή βιβλιογραφική ανασκόπηση (απόψεις άλλων επί των απόψεων του Croce), όσο και προσωπικά υποκειμενικά κριτήρια Για να επιτύχει τους ανωτέρω στόχους, η εργασία δομείται ως ακολούθως: Αρχικά παραθέτονται ορισμένα στοιχειά για την ιστορία της αισθητικής, προκειμένου να περιγραφεί αναλυτικά το πλαίσιο εντός του οποίου έδρασε η σκέψη του Croce. Εν συνεχεία παρουσιάζονται κάποια χαρακτηριστικά του ρομαντικού ιδεώδους, όπως αυτό έχει ιδωθεί από πολλούς πριν τον Croce, αλλά κυρίως και από τον Croce. Στο τέταρτο κεφάλαιο παρουσιάζεται η σχέση της διαίσθησης με την τέχνη, πάλι ιδωμένη μέσα από τον Benedetto Croce, με σημεία στα οποία εστιάζει και η άποψη της γράφουσας. Τέλος, εξάγονται χρήσιμα συμπεράσματα.
description: According to many researchers [1][2][5][6], Benedetto Croce was one of the main players in the Italian cultural life during the first half of the 20th century. This affected decisively the philosophical thought of his time and he is recognized as a theorist of art, a historical researcher and critic, as well as a person of strong political views [29]. The major influence in the aesthetic theory of Benedetto Croce according to the critique of art of the last century, has been the motivation of this work. Thus, the essay attempts, through the study of various works of Benedetto Croce's, but mostly “aesthetics”, to analyze the views of Benedetto Croce on aesthetics and carry out an multidimensional analysis thereon, using both an extensive literature review (including views on the views of Croce), and personally subjective criteria To achieve these objectives, the essay is structured as follows: It originally gives some information on the history of aesthetics, to describe in detail the context in which they acted the thought of Croce. It then presents some characteristics of the romantic ideal, as seen by many before Croce, but mainly from Croce. In the sequel it presents the relation between intuition and art, again seen through by Benedetto Croce, with signs that focus on the view of Scripture. Finally, useful conclusions are extracted.

description: Final state interactions in two-particle interferometry is considered for two-particle potentials which are the Coulomb plus "strong" one. For a simple model of the source we provide a full numerical calculation of the correlation function with taking into account two-particle Coulomb interaction plus final state strong interaction. It is found that for small sources (R=1-4 fm) the contribution from the strong interaction is appreciable and depresses the correlations while for large fireballs (R=7-10 fm) this contribution is small in comparison to the Coulomb one.

description: We prove upper bounds on angular momentum and centre of mass in terms of the Hamiltonian mass and cosmological constant for non-singular asymptotically anti-de Sitter initial data sets satisfying the dominant energy condition. We work in all space-dimensions larger than or equal to three, and allow a large class of asymptotic backgrounds, with spherical and non-spherical conformal infinities; in the latter case, a spin-structure compatibility condition is imposed. We give a large class of non-trivial examples saturating the inequality. We analyse exhaustively the borderline case in space-time dimension four: for spherical cross-sections of Scri, equality together with completeness occurs only in anti-de Sitter space-time. On the other hand, in the toroidal case, regular non-trivial initial data sets saturating the bound exist.

Testing aligned CP-violating Higgs sector at future lepton colliders

description: We discuss the testability of CP-violating phases at future lepton colliders for the scenario which satisfies electric dipole moment data by destructive interferences among several phases. We consider the general but aligned two Higgs doublet model which has the CP-violating phases in the Higgs potential and the Yukawa interaction. The Yukawa interaction terms are aligned to avoid flavor changing neutral currents at tree level. The Higgs potential is also aligned such that the coupling constants of the lightest Higgs boson with the mass of 125 GeV to the Standard Model (SM) particles are the same as those of the SM at tree level. We investigate the azimuthal angle distribution of the hadronic decay of tau leptons arising from production and decay of the extra Higgs bosons, which contains information of the CP-violating phases. From the signal and background simulation, we find that the scenario with finite CP-violating phases can be distinguished from CP conserving one at future lepton colliders like the International Linear Collider.

description: We report an experiment in which an optical vortex is stored in a vapor of Rb atoms. Due to its 2πphase twist, this mode, also known as the Laguerre-Gauss mode, is topologically stable and cannot unwind even under conditions of strong diffusion. To supplement our finding, we stored a flat phase Gaussian beam with a dark center. Contrary to the optical vortex, which stays stable for over 100 microseconds, the dark center in the retrieved flat-phased image was filled with light at storage times as small as 10 microseconds. This experiment proves that higher electromagnetic modes can be converted into atomic coherences, and that modes with phase singularities are robust to decoherence effects such as diffusion. This opens the possibility to more elaborate schemes for two dimensional information storage in atomic vapors.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας μεταπτυχιακής διπλωματικής εργασίας ήταν η διερεύνηση των μεταβλητών που μπορούν να προβλέψουν την ικανότητα αυτόνομης διαβίωσης ηλικιωμένων ατόμων. Για το λόγο αυτό, χορηγήθηκε μια συστοιχία νευροψυχολογικών δοκιμασιών για την εκτίμηση της μνήμης, των ανώτερων γνωστικών ικανοτήτων και των εκτελεστικών λειτουργιών σε ηλικιωμένους που ζουν μόνοι τους και τα καταφέρνουν με τις καθημερινές δραστηριότητες. Τα αποτελέσματα της μελέτης, έδειξαν ότι δύο νευροψυχολογικές δοκιμασίες σε συνδυασμό, μπορούν να προβλέψουν την ικανότητα αυτόνομης διαβίωσης των ηλικιωμένων κι ότι η συνολική βαθμολογία στην κλίμακα ποιότητας ζωής μπορεί να προβλέψει τη σωματική τους λειτουργία.
description: The aim of the present postgraduate study was to establish variables that can aid in the determination of the ability of the elderly to live independently. In order to predict this ability a battery of neuropsychological tests that evaluate memory, higher cognitive and executive abilities was administered in elderly people that live alone. The results indicated that a specific combination of two tests can successfully predict the ability of the elderly to live independently. Additionally, it was determined that the total score in the quality of life scale is indicative of their physical function.

First principles investigations of electronic and magnetic properties of new rh.-B12N3

description: Considering rhombohedral alpha-boron, rh-B12 as a matrix hosting interstitials particularly triatomic linear ones as in B12C3 better known as B4C, the subnitride B12N3 is proposed herein. The N3 triatomic linear alignment labeled N2-N1-N2 resembles that found in the ionic sodium azide NaN3 characterized by a very short d(N1-N2)= 1.16 A. Within DFT-based calculations B12N3 is found more cohesive than pristine B12 with larger inter-nitrogen separation of d(N1-N2)= 1.38 A}. The N1-N2 elongation is explained from the bonding of the two terminal N2 with one of the two B12 boron substructures forming 3B-N2-N1-N2-3B-like complex. A resulting non-bonding charge density localized on central N1 leads to the onset of a magnetic moment of 1 Bohr Magneton in a half-metal ferromagnetic ground state illustrated by projections of the magnetic charge density and the site and spin electronic density of states DOS.

description: We consider a nontrivial class of infinite dimensional quantum channels characterized by finiteness of the Holevo capacity. Some general properties of channels of this class are described. In particular, a special sufficient condition of existence of an optimal measure is obtained and examples of channels with no optimal measure are constructed. It is shown that each channel with finite Holevo capacity has a natural extension to the set of all positive normalized functionals on the algebra of all bounded operators. General properties of such an extension are described. The class of infinite dimensional channels, for which the Holevo capacity can be explicitly determined, is considered.
