description: We report that the number of > 500 MeV protons (Ng) inferred from sustained gamma ray emission (SGRE) from the Sun is significantly correlated with that of protons propagating into space (NSEP) as solar energetic particles (SEPs). Under the shock paradigm for SGRE, shocks driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) accelerate high-energy protons sending them toward the Sun to produce SGRE by interacting with the atmospheric particles. Particles also escape into the space away from the Sun to be detected as SEP events. Therefore, the significant NSEP vs. Ng correlation (correlation coefficient 0.77) is consistent with the common shock origin for the two proton populations. Furthermore, the underlying CMEs have properties akin to those involved in ground level enhancement (GLE) events indicating the presence of high-energy (up to GeV) particles required for SGRE. We show that the observed gamma-ray flux is an underestimate in limb events (central meridian distance > 60 degrees) because SGRE sources are partially occulted when the emission is spatially extended. With the assumption that the SEP spectrum at the shock nose is hard and that the 100 MeV particles are accelerated throughout the shock surface (half width in the range 60 to 120 degrees) we find that the latitudinal widths of SEP distributions are energy dependent with the smallest width at the highest energies. Not using the energy-dependent width results in an underestimate of NSEP in SGRE events occurring at relatively higher latitudes. Taking these two effects into account removes the apparent lack of NSEP - Ng correlation reported in previous studies.

description: We formulate holomorphic theory of gravity and study how the holomorphy symmetry alters the two most important singular solutions of general relativity: black holes and cosmology. We show that typical observers (freely) falling into a holomorphic black hole do not encounter a curvature singularity. Likewise, typical observers do not experience Big Bang singularity. Unlike Hermitian gravity \cite{MantzHermitianGravity}, Holomorphic gravity does not respect the reciprocity symmetry and thus it is mainly a toy model for a gravity theory formulated on complex space-times. Yet it is a model that deserves a closer investigation since in many aspects it resembles Hermitian gravity and yet calculations are simpler. We have indications that holomorphic gravity reduces to the laws of general relativity correctly at large distance scales.

description: We introduce a pseudo entropy extension of topological entanglement entropy called topological pseudo entropy. Various examples of the topological pseudo entropies are examined in three-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theory with Wilson loop insertions. Partition functions with knotted Wilson loops are directly related to topological pseudo (Rényi) entropies. We also show that the pseudo entropy in a certain setup is equivalent to the interface entropy in two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs), and leverage the equivalence to calculate the pseudo entropies in particular examples. Furthermore, we define a pseudo entropy extension of the left-right entanglement entropy in two-dimensional boundary CFTs and derive a universal formula for a pair of arbitrary boundary states. As a byproduct, we find that the topological interface entropy for rational CFTs has a contribution identical to the topological entanglement entropy on a torus.

description: A new ultra-hard rhombohedral carbon rh-C4 (or hexagonal h-C12) is reported as derived from 3R graphite through crystal chemistry construction and ground state energy within the density functional theory. An extended hexagonal three-dimensional network of h-C12 is formed of C4 tetrahedra alike in h-C4 lonsdaleite (hexagonal diamond). The electronic band structure of rh-C4 is characteristic of insulator with Egap = 4 eV similarly to diamond. From the set of elastic constants a larger value of bulk modulus versus lonsdaleite, and the largest Vickers hardness (HV) versus both forms of diamond were derived.

description: We report results from a novel diagnostic that probes the outer radial profile of trapped antiproton clouds. The diagnostic allows us to determine the profile by monitoring the time-history of antiproton losses that occur as an octupole field in the antiproton confinement region is increased. We show several examples of how this diagnostic helps us to understand the radial dynamics of antiprotons in normal and nested Penning-Malmberg traps. Better understanding of these dynamics may aid current attempts to trap antihydrogen atoms.

description: Purpose of the study. To determine the clinical efficacy of lavsanoplasty in the treatment of lumbar and sacral spine injuries. Material and methods.  87 patients with injuries of the lumbar and sacral spine were operated on. Fifty-six of them had spondylolisthesis accompanied by neurologic deficit. In all patients we applied LAVSANOPLSTIKA to stabilize the damaged spinal segment. Results. Differential application of different variants of dural sac compression elimination using Lovesanoplasty for treatment of patients with spondylolisthesis allowed to obtain good treatment results in 63 patients, satisfactory - in 22 patients, unsatisfactory - in 2 patients. Conclusion. In traumatic stenoses of the spinal canal in the lumbar spine, the choice of the method of dural sac decompression should be planned individually for each patient taking into account the time since the trauma, the severity and dynamics of neurological disorders, and the localization of spinal column damage.

Fractionation and partial characterization of the hemagglutinating and bacterial aggregating adhesins of Bacteroides gingivalis
Creators: name: Boyd, Janet Doreen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In order to characterize the surface components responsible for hemagglutination and bacterial aggregation, the outer membrane complex of Bacteroides gingivalis W12 was isolated. It was found to contain both hemagglutinating and bacterial aggregating activity. Examination of the membrane material by biochemical analysis, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunological means revealed that the crude outer membrane preparation contained three major proteins and a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) population which displayed size heterogeneity. At least two membrane proteins as well as the LPS were found to be antigenically active - using immun-blot analysis. Using gel chromatography and an LPS disaggregating buffer the membrane material was separated into two fractions. An accompanying separation of the two adherence- activities was observed. The first membrane fraction, containing mostly protein and carbohydrate material was found to contain the bacterial aggregating activity. This fraction also contained a"smooth" IPS population. The second membrane fraction consisted of "rough"type LPS, protein and loosely bound lipid and was found to contain the hemagglutinating activity. Further investigation revealed that bacterial aggregating activity was blocked by the presence of D-galactose (14 mM) , D-glucosamine (23 mm) and N-acetylglucoscmine (23 mm) and by dialysed iitmune rabbit serum. Dialysed non-immune rabbit serum did not block this activity. Bacterial aggregation was not removed by chloroform-methanol extraction or destroyed by proteolytic treatment. Pronase treatment was found in fact to enhance bacterial aggregating activity on a dry weight basis. Based on these observations it appeared that the bacterial aggregating adhesin was either the capsular polysaccharide or "smooth" type LPS. Hemagglutinating activity was blocked by the presence of N-acetyl-galactosamine (23 mM) and bovine brain ganglioside (312 ug/ml). As well, dialysed immune and non-immune serum were found to inhibit this activity, while β-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol were found to enhance bacterial aggregation. Both protease digestion and chloroform-methanol extraction destroyed hemagglutinating activity which suggested that the hemagglutinin was either a protein or a lipid-protein complex.

description: In this letter we report {\it in situ} small--angle neutron scattering results on the high--density (HDA) and low-density amorphous (LDA) ice structures and on intermediate structures as found during the temperature induced transformation of HDA into LDA. We show that the small--angle signal is characterised by two $Q$ regimes featuring different properties ($Q$ is the modulus of the scattering vector defined as $Q = 4π\sin{(Θ)}/λ_{\rm i}$ with $Θ$ being half the scattering angle and $λ_{\rm i}$ the incident neutron wavelength). The very low--$Q$ regime ($< 5\times 10^{-2}$ Å$^{-1}$) is dominated by a Porod--limit scattering. Its intensity reduces in the course of the HDA to LDA transformation following a kinetics reminiscent of that observed in wide--angle diffraction experiments. The small--angle neutron scattering formfactor in the intermediate regime of $5 \times 10^{-2} < Q < 0.5$ Å$^{-1}$ HDA and LDA features a rather flat plateau. However, the HDA signal shows an ascending intensity towards smaller $Q$ marking this amorphous structure as heterogeneous. When following the HDA to LDA transition the formfactor shows a pronounced transient excess in intensity marking all intermediate structures as strongly heterogeneous on a length scale of some nano--meters.

Regional model of multi family housing starts : an inventory adjustment approach
Creators: name: Fountain, Judy A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The decline in multi family housing starts in Urban Canada during the 1970's and the attendant low vacancy rates has generated comment on the efficiency of housing markets and the possibity of a housing crisis. Traditionally, existing vacant units are cited as a buffer between the demand and supply. This paper proposes that the inventory of new units offers a more direct buffer. Therefore the use of an inventory adjustment model to estimate and predict multi family housing starts is suggested. The theoretical model suggests that there is some desired inventory level which builders or investors will try to maintain depending on expected profitability, the relative yield on other investments and the cost of maintaining vacant units. Demand for new rental units will depend upon the deomographic structure of the population, unemployment, income, and the relationship between rents ownership costs and the cost of other goods and services. Starts will be set to satisfy the expected demand and adjust actual inventory levels to the desired inventory level. Quarterly data for the Vancouver CMA, from 1963 to 1982 are used to test this model. The empirical analysis consists of three parts: a structural- model based on the inventory adjustment process, a time series model to provide a measure for evaluating the success of the structural model, and an analysis of the forecasting capabilities of these two models. Data from 1963 to 1980 are used to estimate the models and 1981 to 1982 data are maintained to test the forecasts. The results suffer from inadequacies of the available data, immeasurable impacts of government policy and programs and possible idiosyncracies of the Vancouver housing market. In general, the results indicate that inventories do provide a buffer between the demand and supply of multi family housing units. As such, the vacancy rate of existing units, in isolation, is an insufficient indicator of market activity and response. Similar analysis for other urban centres in Canada is needed to determine the uniqueness of these results. Also, it may be possible to develop an improved forecasting model by incorporating the time series coefficients with the structural model.

description: One practical requirement in solving dynamic games is to ensure that the players play well from any decision point onward. To satisfy this requirement, existing efforts focus on equilibrium refinement, but the scalability and applicability of existing techniques are limited. In this paper, we propose Temporal-Induced Self-Play (TISP), a novel reinforcement learning-based framework to find strategies with decent performances from any decision point onward. TISP uses belief-space representation, backward induction, policy learning, and non-parametric approximation. Building upon TISP, we design a policy-gradient-based algorithm TISP-PG. We prove that TISP-based algorithms can find approximate Perfect Bayesian Equilibrium in zero-sum one-sided stochastic Bayesian games with finite horizon. We test TISP-based algorithms in various games, including finitely repeated security games and a grid-world game. The results show that TISP-PG is more scalable than existing mathematical programming-based methods and significantly outperforms other learning-based methods.

description: The properties of metal-semiconductor junctions are often unpredictable because of non-ideal interfacial structures, such as interfacial defects or chemical reactions introduced at junctions. Black phosphorus (BP), an elemental two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting crystal, possesses the puckered atomic structure with high chemical reactivity, and the establishment of a realistic atomic-scale picture of BP's interface toward metallic contact has remained elusive. Here we examine the interfacial structures and properties of physically-deposited metals of various kinds on BP. We find that Au, Ag, and Bi form single-crystalline films with (110) orientation through guided van der Waals epitaxy. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirm that atomically sharp van der Waals metal-BP interfaces forms with exceptional rotational alignment. Under a weak metal-BP interaction regime, the BP's puckered structure play an essential role in the adatom assembly process and can lead to the formation of a single crystal, which is supported by our theoretical analysis and calculations. The experimental survey also demonstrates that the BP-metal junctions can exhibit various types of interfacial structures depending on metals, such as the formation of polycrystalline microstructure or metal phosphides. This study provides a guideline for obtaining a realistic view on metal-2D semiconductor interfacial structures, especially for atomically puckered 2D crystals.

description: We study how uncertainties in the rate coefficients of chemical reactions in the RATE06 database affect abundances and column densities of key molecules in protoplanetary disks. We randomly varied the gas-phase reaction rates within their uncertainty limits and calculated the time-dependent abundances and column densities using a gas-grain chemical model and a flaring steady-state disk model. We find that key species can be separated into two distinct groups according to the sensitivity of their column densities to the rate uncertainties. The first group includes CO, C$^+$, H$_3^+$, H$_2$O, NH$_3$, N$_2$H$^+$, and HCNH$^+$. For these species, the column densities are not very sensitive to the rate uncertainties but the abundances in specific regions are. The second group includes CS, CO$_2$, HCO$^+$, H$_2$CO, C$_2$H, CN, HCN, HNC and other, more complex species, for which high abundances and abundance uncertainties co-exist in the same disk region, leading to larger scatters in the column densities. However, even for complex and heavy molecules, the dispersion in their column densities is not more than a factor of ~4. We perform a sensitivity analysis of the computed abundances to rate uncertainties and identify those reactions with the most problematic rate coefficients. We conclude that the rate coefficients of about a hundred of chemical reactions need to be determined more accurately in order to greatly improve the reliability of modern astrochemical models. This improvement should be an ultimate goal for future laboratory studies and theoretical investigations.

description: Where do themes come from in Roman declamation? In most cases this is a  question with no answer; sometimes, however, we are able to find out the  origin of the argumenta treated by Latin rhetoricians. That is what happens about Seneca the Elder’s Controversiae 6, 7 and 7, 2 and pseudo-Quintilian’s Major Declamations 1 and 2. The contribution aims to investigate the relation between  these themes and their (literary as well as rhetoric) sources, in order  to understand how Roman rhetores worked on their “raw materials”, modified them and made them fit declamatory conventions.

description: The influence of random site dilution on the critical properties of the two-dimensional Ising model on a square lattice was explored by Monte Carlo simulations with the Wang-Landau sampling. The lattice linear size was $L = 20-120$ and the concentration of diluted sites $q=0.1, 0.2, 0.3$. Its pure version displays a second-order phase transition with a vanishing specific heat critical exponent $α$, thus, the Harris criterion is inconclusive, in that disorder is a relevant or irrelevant perturbation for the critical behavior of the pure system. The main effort was focused on the specific heat and magnetic susceptibility. We have also looked at the probability distribution of susceptibility, pseudocritical temperatures and specific heat for assessing self-averaging. The study was carried out in appropriate restricted but dominant energy subspaces. By applying the finite-size scaling analysis, the correlation length exponent $ν$ was found to be greater than one, whereas the ratio of the critical exponents ($α/ν$) is negative and ($γ/ν$) retains its pure Ising model value supporting weak universality.

We have computed the perturbative QCD corrections to three loops for the harged current structure functions F_2, F_L and F_3 for the combination nu P - nubar P. In leading twist approximation we have calculated the first six odd-integer Mellin moments in the case of F_2 and F_L and the first six even-integer moments in the case of F_3. As a new result we have obtained the coefficient functions to O(alpha_s^3) and we have found the corresponding anomalous dimensions to agree with known results in the literature.

Corporate transfers : factors affecting the transferred employee’s spouse’s willingness to move

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The numerous mutual benefits that can result from a successful corporate transfer experience are addressed here. The reasons for refusal by an increasingly large number of executives and their families to be transferred are examined in addition to an exploration of the substantive organizational, personal and familial costs that are usually incurred in an unsuccessful transfer. The effects of transfer on a spouse's familial, career and social roles are discussed. It is believed and well supported that attention to these aspects would have a great impact on the outcome of the transfer itself. Thus, it is proposed that with a better understanding and awareness of spouses' needs and the problems facing them in event of transfers, greater care can be exercised in selecting those spouses who, because of their willingness to move, would suffer minimum role disruptions. Central to this proposal are the identification of those economic, psychological and other factors which cause trauma in cases of corporate transfer, and the relation of these factors to the willingness of spouses to accept their husbands' transfers. A sample of 164 spouses who had been transferred at least once with their husbands served as the sample for the principal statistical analysis. Another group of 176 spouses who had also been transferred at least once with their husbands served as the sample for cross-validation purposes. Multiple correlation analysis and tests for differences in means were used in both groups (i.e. working and non-working spouses) to explain the variance in the spouses' willingness to move. In the working spouse group, spouses' satisfaction with their present location appears to be the primary predictor of their willingness to move, while the locus of control of the non-working spouses seems to be the primary predictor of their willingness to move.

description: We have measured the scattering timescale, $τ$, and the scattering spectral index, $α$, for 84 single-component pulsars. Observations were carried out with the MeerKAT telescope as part of the Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme in the MeerTime project at frequencies between 0.895 and 1.670 GHz. Our results give a distribution of values for $α$ (defined in terms of $τ$ and frequency $ν$ as $τ\proptoν^{-α}$) for which, upon fitting a Gaussian, we obtain a mean and standard deviation of $\langleα\rangle = 4.0 \pm 0.6$. This is due to our identification of possible causes of inaccurate measurement of $τ$, which, if not filtered out of modelling results, tend to lead to underestimation of $α$. The pulsars in our sample have large dispersion measures and are therefore likely to be distant. We find that a model using an isotropic scatter broadening function is consistent with the data, likely due to the averaging effect of multiple scattering screens along the line of sight. Our sample of scattering parameters provides a strong data set upon which we can build to test more complex and time-dependent scattering phenomena, such as extreme scattering events.

description: In a recent paper, Michael J. Saxton proposes to interpret as anomalous diffusion the occurrence of apparent transient sub-diffusive regimes in mean-squared displacements (MSD) plots, calculated from experimental trajectories of molecules diffusing in living cells, acquired by Single Particle (or Molecule) Tracking techniques (SPT or SMT). In this Comment, without questioning the existence of sub-diffusive behaviors, which certainly play a key role in numbers of mechanisms in living systems, we point out that the data used by J.M. Saxton can as well be fitted by a simple law, resulting from confined diffusion at short times, with a slower free diffusion superimposed at larger times. When visualizing MSD plots, the transition from short-term diffusion confined in domains of size L, to slower, longer-term free diffusion, can be confused with anomalous diffusion over several orders of magnitude of time.

description: In 2014 fanden 25% aller Unfälle im Straßenverkehr in Kreuzungen statt (Europäische Kommission, 2016). Insbesondere in Situationen mit mehr als zwei Verkehrsteilnehmern kann es zu schwierig aufzulösenden Kooperationssituationen kommen. Dies liegt daran, dass die Verkehrs-teilnehmer kooperieren und kommunizieren müssen. Dieses Problem wird verschärft, wenn es zu sogenannten Pattsituationen kommt, in denen unklar ist, welcher Verkehrsteilnehmer zuerst fahren darf. Nach § 11 (3) StVO müssen die Verkehrsteilnehmer diese Situation zusammen lösen. Mit der Einführung von automatischen Fahrzeugführungen wird es zu einem Mischverkehr kommen (Färber, 2015). In Situationen, die durch Kooperation gelöst werden müssen, benötigen automatische Fahrzeug-führungen Empfehlungen, wie sie sich verhalten können, um diese Pattsi-tuation mit dem menschlichen Kooperationspartner aufzulösen.
Dafür wurden in dieser Arbeit zwei exemplarische Szenarien ausgewählt und systematisch untersucht. In einer Beobachtungsstudie wurden rele-vante Verhaltensweisen zur Lösung der Pattsituation identifiziert. Jedes Szenario wurde in einem eigenständigen Experiment hinsichtlich der Gebrauchstauglichkeit der Verhaltensweisen für eine automatische Fahrzeugführung untersucht. Die Ergebnisse wurden in einem weiteren Schritt mit einem Fragebogen hinsichtlich der Erwartungen überprüft. 
Die Untersuchungen zeigten, dass in simplen Pattsituationen Verkehrs-teilnehmer es kooperativer empfinden, wenn sie als erstes fahren dürfen und in komplexen Situationen es als kooperativer empfinden, wenn der Kooperationspartner als erstes fährt. Des Weiteren wurde aufgezeigt, dass  explizite Kommunikationszeichen für ein defensives Verhalten, nicht aber für ein offensives Verhalten existieren.
Die Ergebnisse werden für das Themengebiet der Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion zwischen automatisch geführten Fahrzeugen und von Men-schen gesteuerten Fahrzeugen ausführlich diskutiert.

description: In this paper, we propose a novel framework for multi-target multi-camera tracking (MTMCT) of vehicles based on metadata-aided re-identification (MA-ReID) and the trajectory-based camera link model (TCLM). Given a video sequence and the corresponding frame-by-frame vehicle detections, we first address the isolated tracklets issue from single camera tracking (SCT) by the proposed traffic-aware single-camera tracking (TSCT). Then, after automatically constructing the TCLM, we solve MTMCT by the MA-ReID. The TCLM is generated from camera topological configuration to obtain the spatial and temporal information to improve the performance of MTMCT by reducing the candidate search of ReID. We also use the temporal attention model to create more discriminative embeddings of trajectories from each camera to achieve robust distance measures for vehicle ReID. Moreover, we train a metadata classifier for MTMCT to obtain the metadata feature, which is concatenated with the temporal attention based embeddings. Finally, the TCLM and hierarchical clustering are jointly applied for global ID assignment. The proposed method is evaluated on the CityFlow dataset, achieving IDF1 76.77%, which outperforms the state-of-the-art MTMCT methods.

description: Deep learning models often function as black boxes, providing no straightforward reasoning for their predictions. This is particularly true for computer vision models, which process tensors of pixel values to generate outcomes in tasks such as image classification and object detection. To elucidate the reasoning of these models, class activation maps (CAMs) are used to highlight salient regions that influence a model's output. This research introduces KPCA-CAM, a technique designed to enhance the interpretability of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) through improved class activation maps. KPCA-CAM leverages Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with the kernel trick to capture nonlinear relationships within CNN activations more effectively. By mapping data into higher-dimensional spaces with kernel functions and extracting principal components from this transformed hyperplane, KPCA-CAM provides more accurate representations of the underlying data manifold. This enables a deeper understanding of the features influencing CNN decisions. Empirical evaluations on the ILSVRC dataset across different CNN models demonstrate that KPCA-CAM produces more precise activation maps, providing clearer insights into the model's reasoning compared to existing CAM algorithms. This research advances CAM techniques, equipping researchers and practitioners with a powerful tool to gain deeper insights into CNN decision-making processes and overall behaviors.

description: Building on the recent determination of the simplicial cohomology groups of the convolution algebra ${\ell}^1({\mathbb Z}_+^k)$ [Gourdeau, Lykova, White, 2005] we investigate what can be said for cohomology of this algebra with more general symmetric coefficients. Our approach leads us to a discussion of Harrison homology and cohomology in the context of Banach algebras, and a development of some of its basic features. As an application of our techniques we reprove some known results on second-degree cohomology.

description: We prove certain mixed-norm Strichartz estimates on manifolds with boundary. Using them we are able to prove new results for the critical and subcritical wave equation in 4-dimensions with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. We obtain global existence in the subcricital case, as well as global existence for the critical equation with small data. We also can use our Strichartz estimates to prove scattering results for the critical wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in 3-dimensions.

Natural revegetation of mining disturbances in the Klondike area, Yukon Territory

description: Placer mining has taken place continuously since 1896 in the Klondike area of the Yukon Territory. Excavation of lower slopes and creek bottoms for mining has resulted in extensive areas of disturbed land. The purpose of this study is to identify and describe the spatial and temporal factors which influence successional trends in the natural revegetation of these areas. The study concentrates on identifying these factors and determining the degree to which each of them influences both total vegetation cover and dominant tree species. Plant communities ranging from 2 to 80 years in age are described on 67 sites disturbed by placer mining. Principal Components Analysis, a gradient analysis technique, is used to transform site environmental variables into single component scores. A series of regression analyses are then used to isolate the factors influencing vegetation patterns. Predicted and residual scores represent the influence of site age, site conditions, solar radiation, and other unidentified factors on vegetation abundance. Results show that the influence of environmental conditions at a site accounts for 48.8% of the variation in total vegetation cover. Local climate, represented by solar radiation values, explains another 9.8%. Only 9.2% of the variation is explained by site age, leaving 32.2% of the variation to be accounted for by unidentified factors which might include seed supply from adjacent vegetated areas, soil instability due to erosion, sampling error, and chance. Once the effects of site age and the residual factors are accounted for, vegetation cover and site conditions are significantly correlated. Soil drainage, soil macropore space and slope angle comprise the major environmental factors influencing vegetation development on disturbed land. This information is used to help define conditions in which present mining areas should be left, in order to promote optimal natural revegetation.
