description: We describe the $C^*$-algebra of an $E$-unitary or strongly 0-$E$-unitary inverse semigroup as the partial crossed product of a commutative $C^*$-algebra by the maximal group image of the inverse semigroup. We give a similar result for the $C^*$-algebra of the tight groupoid of an inverse semigroup. We also study conditions on a groupoid $C^*$-algebra to be Morita equivalent to a full crossed product of a commutative $C^*$-algebra with an inverse semigroup, generalizing results of Khoshkam and Skandalis for crossed products with groups.

When Privilege Meets Pain: How Gender Oppression and Class Privilege Condition University Students’ Experiences of Intimate Partner Violence

Gendered Violence

description: Currently, sexual assault is characterized as the primary threat to women’s safety on university campuses. Accordingly, many post-secondary institutions in Canada have developed specialized policies, resources, and prevention strategies to address this form of gendered violence. Although a serious concern, the narrow focus ignores university students’ vulnerability to multiple other forms of gendered violence, including intimate partner violence (IPV). In an effort to address this neglected topic, this thesis explores the way five university students experienced and navigated IPV. Adopting an intersectional lens informed by feminist work on gender roles, gendered expectations, and sexual scripts as well as Pierre Bourdieu’s work on class thesis examines how gender oppression and class privilege intersect to create unique experiences of IPV for university students. To that end five semi-structured interviews were conducted with women who suffered psychological, physical, sexual, and/or financial abuse while in university. The interviews facilitated open and honest dialogue whilst providing this research project with valuable insight into how IPV plays out among class privileged university students. The thesis concludes that although the participants are oppressed in terms of gender (and susceptible to IPV on this basis) their class privilege also conditioned their experiences of IPV. While affording them access to social and economic resources, the disjuncture between their self-identity as educated, smart, and independent women inhibited their ability to accept their identity as victims; as a result, the participants struggled to disclose, seek help, and address the abuse.

description: To an inverse semigroup, we associate an étale groupoid such that its actions on topological spaces are equivalent to actions of the inverse semigroup. Both the object and the arrow space of this groupoid are non-Hausdorff. We show that this construction provides an adjoint functor to the functor that maps a groupoid to its inverse semigroup of bisections, where we turn étale groupoids into a category using algebraic morphisms. We also discuss how to recover a groupoid from this inverse semigroup.

description: Cette thèse se veut une analyse sociologique du phénomène peyilòk en Haïti qui a émergé de la spontanéité créative des masses populaires en protestation à la décision du gouvernement Moïse/Lafontant d’augmenter les prix du carburant le 6 juillet 2018. Cette nouvelle forme d’action protestataire s’est développée et consolidée au sein du mouvement pétrocaribe jusqu’à en devenir complètement autonome. En effet, cette recherche se donne un triple objectif : dégager une compréhension des contextes socio-politiques dans lesquels le peyilòk s’est émergé et développé; saisir ses significations du point de vue des protestataires qui se sont engagés dans les dynamiques de mobilisations; et parvenir à une théorisation de ce phénomène. Cette recherche est réalisée à partir d’une enquête qualitative de terrain constituée de onze entretiens individuels semi-dirigés, trois groupes de discussion et des discussions informelles. Ce travail empirique s’est inscrit dans une quête de réponse à un question centrale de recherche qui constituait la pierre angulaire de celle-ci, à savoir : comment pouvons-nous appréhender l’émergence et la mise en sens du phénomène peyilòk dans les dynamiques de mobilisation contre l’État haïtien? Ayant une prévalence empirique, étant dans une approche méthodologique de théorisation ancrée, les discours des protestataires sont au centre cette recherche.

description: Ces dernières années, l’utilisation des fibres végétales suscite un regain d'intérêt. En effet, ces fibres peuvent représenter une alternative aux fibres traditionnelles utilisées dans les matériaux de construction, telles que les fibres polypropylènes. Le développement durable exige des matériaux respectueux de l’environnement donc des matériaux naturels. En ce sens, les fibres végétales utilisées comme renfort pour les matériaux cimentaires constituent une option très intéressante pour l’industrie de la construction. Ainsi, cet article examine les performances mécaniques (résistance à la flexion) et les propriétés de transfert (conductivité thermique) des mortiers cimentaires renforcés par des fibres végétales. Les fibres végétales utilisées dans ce travail (Dis, Alfa, Palmier dattier et Chanvre) ont été préalablement traitées avec de l’hydroxyde de calcium. Les résultats obtenus par ce travail montrent que les mortiers renforcés de fibres végétales présentent une meilleure capacité de déformation que le mortier témoin sans fibres. En outre, la meilleure résistance à la flexion a été enregistrée pour les mortiers de chanvre et du palmier dattier. Concernant la conductivité thermique des mortiers fibrés, elle a été réduite d’environ 15% bien que le taux des fibres introduit est relativement faible (0,1%). Ces résultats laissent présager d’un avenir prometteur pour l’utilisation des fibres végétales dans les matériaux cimentaires.

description: The ordinary-extraordinary (O-X) mode conversion is modeled with the aid of a 2D full-wave code in the Pegasus Toroidal Experiment as a function of the launch angles. It is shown how the shape of the plasma density profile in front of the antenna can significantly influence the mode conversion efficiency and, thus, the generation of electron Bernstein waves (EBW). It is therefore desirable to control the density profile in front of the antenna for successful operation of an EBW heating and current drive system. On the other hand, the conversion efficiency is shown to be resilient to vertical displacements of the plasma as large as \pm 10 cm.

description: Sustainability is especially important in power-intensive tasks in the agricultural industry, and therefore an aspect with optimization potential. During adjustments of the operating speed, fuel consumption can vary. The prediction of the most efficient operating point for the tractor-implement combinations is challenging due to the complexity of the machinery and the varying interaction forces between soil and machine. Currently, human drivers are required to manually adjust the operating speed. This paper presents and compares two optimization algorithms for predicting the most energy-efficient operating speed based on real-time measurements of the system state. Field tests were conducted to evaluate the algorithms under varying soil types and operating conditions. The algorithms accurately determined advantageous operating points within the defined working quality boundaries, making them promising tools for increasing sustainability in the agricultural industry.
The Mathematical Relationship between Zipf's Law and the Hierarchical Scaling Law

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Physics and Society (physics.soc-ph)

description: The empirical studies of city-size distribution show that Zipf's law and the hierarchical scaling law are linked in many ways. The rank-size scaling and hierarchical scaling seem to be two different sides of the same coin, but their relationship has never been revealed by strict mathematical proof. In this paper, the Zipf's distribution of cities is abstracted as a q-sequence. Based on this sequence, a self-similar hierarchy consisting of many levels is defined and the numbers of cities in different levels form a geometric sequence. An exponential distribution of the average size of cities is derived from the hierarchy. Thus we have two exponential functions, from which follows a hierarchical scaling equation. The results can be statistically verified by simple mathematical experiments and observational data of cities. A theoretical foundation is then laid for the conversion from Zipf's law to the hierarchical scaling law, and the latter can show more information about city development than the former. Moreover, the self-similar hierarchy provides a new perspective for studying networks of cities as complex systems. A series of mathematical rules applied to cities such as the allometric growth law, the 2^n principle and Pareto's law can be associated with one another by the hierarchical organization.

description: Le béton de terre est composé essentiellement de particules fines comme l'argile qui le rend très sensible au retrait plastique. De plus, la faible résistance de ce béton au jeune âge augmente le risque de fissuration. Dans ce travail, l'effet des fibres de lin sur la fissuration des bétons de terre au jeune âge a été étudié selon la norme ASTM C1579-13. Le pourcentage et la longueur des fibres ont été variées de 0,6 à 1,2 et de 12, 24 à 50 mm respectivement. Le béton testé, est constitué d'un sol artificiel composé de sable du béton recyclé et d'argile avec 8% de ciment et 3% de chaux. Les champs de déplacement dans la zone de fissuration ont été mesurés à l’aide de la technique de traitement d'images. Le temps de fissuration et l’évolution de l’ouverture de la fissure ont été ainsi évalués. Les résultats montrent l'efficacité des fibres de lin dans la réduction de la largeur de fissuration dû au retrait plastique.

description: We investigate the chemical history of interstellar OCS and SO2 by deriving a statistically-significant sample of gas-phase column densities towards massive protostars and comparing to observations of gas and ices towards other sources spanning from dark clouds to comets. We analyze a subset of 26 line-rich massive protostars observed by ALMA as part of the ALMAGAL survey. Column densities are derived for OCS and SO2 from their rare isotopologues O13CS and 34SO2 towards the compact gas around the hot core. We find that gas-phase column density ratios of OCS and SO2 with respect to methanol remain fairly constant as a function of luminosity between low- and high-mass sources, despite their very different physical conditions. The derived gaseous OCS and SO2 abundances relative to CH3OH are overall similar to protostellar ice values, with a significantly larger scatter for SO2 than for OCS. Cometary and dark-cloud ice values agree well with protostellar gas-phase ratios for OCS, whereas higher abundances of SO2 are generally seen in comets compared to the other sources. Gaseous SO2/OCS ratios are consistent with ices toward dark clouds, protostars, and comets, albeit with some scatter. The constant gas-phase column density ratios throughout low and high-mass sources indicate an early stage formation before intense environmental differentiation begins. Icy protostellar values are similar to the gas phase medians, compatible with an icy origin of these species followed by thermal sublimation. The larger spread in SO2 compared to OCS ratios w.r.t. CH3OH is likely due to a more water-rich chemical environment associated with the former, as opposed to a CO-rich origin of the latter. Post-sublimation gas-phase processing of SO2 can also contribute to the large spread. Comparisons to ices in dark clouds and comets point to a significant inheritance of OCS from earlier to later evolutionary stages.

description: Abstract: The gravitational dual to the grand canonical ensemble of a large N holographic theory is a charged black hole. These spacetimes — for example Reissner- Nordström-AdS — can have Cauchy horizons that render the classical gravitational dynamics of the black hole interior incomplete. We show that a (spatially uniform) deformation of the CFT by a neutral scalar operator generically leads to a black hole with no inner horizon. There is instead a spacelike Kasner singularity in the interior. For relevant deformations, Cauchy horizons never form. For certain irrelevant deformations, Cauchy horizons can exist at one specific temperature. We show that the scalar field triggers a rapid collapse of the Einstein-Rosen bridge at the would-be Cauchy horizon. Finally, we make some observations on the interior of charged dilatonic black holes where the Kasner exponent at the singularity exhibits an attractor mechanism in the low temperature limit.

description: Solid-water interfaces are crucial to many physical and chemical processes and are extensively studied using surface-specific sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. To establish clear correlations between specific spectral signatures and distinct interfacial water structures, theoretical calculations using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are required. These MD simulations typically need relatively long trajectories (a few nanoseconds) to achieve reliable SFG response function calculations via the dipole-polarizability time correlation function. However, the requirement for long trajectories limits the use of computationally expensive techniques such as ab initio MD (AIMD) simulations, particularly for complex solid-water interfaces. In this work, we present a pathway for calculating vibrational spectra (IR, Raman, SFG) of solid-water interfaces using machine learning (ML)-accelerated methods. We employ both the dipole moment-polarizability correlation function and the surface-specific velocity-velocity correlation function approaches to calculate SFG spectra. Our results demonstrate the successful acceleration of AIMD simulations and the calculation of SFG spectra using ML methods. This advancement provides an opportunity to calculate SFG spectra for the complicated solid-water systems more rapidly and at a lower computational cost with the aid of ML.

We also analyzed whether technical assessment scores were correlated with standardized math and ELA scores.
Grains of silver and sand : landscape photography in South Africa since the 1960s
Creators: name: Perez Montelongo, Monica Daniela
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: My dissertation considers the work of three South African photographers: David Goldblatt 1930-2018) Santu Mofokeng (1956-2020) and Jo Ractliffe (b. 1961). Through a selection of photographs taken and printed during a period that spans from the 1960s to the contemporary moment, my investigation considers their photographs as interventions into the pre-established colonial history of landscape photography. Their landscape photographs investigate South Africa’s histories of colonization and interrogate post-apartheid processes of memorialization through opaque traces of violence in the landscape. They document landscapes scarred by racial capitalism and its enduring structures of segregation. Their photographs, characterized by depictions of a modest or unidealized nature, unconventional framing, and a remarkably skilled employment of the medium of black and white technologies put a question mark on dominant ideas about the genre of landscape photography both in South Africa and beyond. I reexamine the historiography of the concept of landscape in these artists from the intersecting perspectives of art history and cultural geography in order to establish an historical and cultural context of South African landscape photography that speaks to the political realities of the region. This dissertation argues that the pivotal role of the idea of landscape in the development of the actual, physical segregation of both the geographical areas and people in South Africa fostered the conditions for a critical reconsideration of the very concept of landscape both during apartheid and in its aftermath.
On the Scaling Limits of Determinantal Point Processes with Kernels Induced by Sturm-Liouville Operators

description: By applying an idea of Borodin and Olshanski [J. Algebra 313 (2007), 40-60], we study various scaling limits of determinantal point processes with trace class projection kernels given by spectral projections of selfadjoint Sturm-Liouville operators. Instead of studying the convergence of the kernels as functions, the method directly addresses the strong convergence of the induced integral operators. We show that, for this notion of convergence, the Dyson, Airy, and Bessel kernels are universal in the bulk, soft-edge, and hard-edge scaling limits. This result allows us to give a short and unified derivation of the known formulae for the scaling limits of the classical random matrix ensembles with unitary invariance, that is, the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE), the Wishart or Laguerre unitary ensemble (LUE), and the MANOVA (multivariate analysis of variance) or Jacobi unitary ensemble (JUE).

description: Abstract: Background: Reaching recruitment targets in randomised controlled trials is a challenge. Media tools are increasingly used to engage participants, yet there is a paucity of research into the use of video to optimise recruitment. We therefore tested whether adding a participant information video clip to a standard participant information sheet improved recruitment into a parenting trial. Methods: One hundred seven participants were randomised to receive either a participant information sheet (n = 51) or an informational video clip (n = 56) as part of an email contact following a screening phase. All participants went on to receive the information sheet as part of the existing consent procedure. Results: The video condition did not increase the odds of recruitment into the trial, such that those in the video condition were significantly less likely to participate in the main trial (OR = 0.253, CI = 0.104–0.618, p = 0.003). Conclusion: The introduction of a video clip into the recruitment stages of a parenting trial did not lead to an improvement in recruitment; however, the small sample size precludes definitive inferences. We offer reflections on challenges encountered in implementing the SWAT and suggestions for other researchers seeking to embed recruitment SWATs into similar trials.

Psychotic disorders
Ethnicity
Social gradient
Identity
Psychosocial disempowerment

description: Abstract: Purpose: Psychotic disorders, which are associated with substantially increased morbidity and mortality, are up to five times more common in some ethnic minority groups compared with the white majority in Western countries. This long-standing and well-replicated public mental health disparity has hitherto largely eluded adequate explanation. We argue that this might have arisen in part due to the lack of attention given to theoretical work characterising the complex and multidimensional social nature of ethnicity by those epidemiological investigations that have dominated the literature. Methods: To bridge this gap, we draw on theoretical and empirical literature from across the social sciences considering the ontological significance of ethnicity (as biology, migration, racialised structures and identity) and its relationships with psychotic disorders to illuminate probable drivers of excess psychosis risk. Results: The largest gains in our theoretical understanding of excess psychosis risk among ethnic minority groups are to be made by considering ethnicity in relation to disempowerment resulting from structural and identity-based exclusion. The former is readily studied through the social gradient in health: socioeconomic disadvantage clusters in some ethnic minorities and increases the risk of poor health outcomes, including psychosis. Furthermore, limitations on identity acquisition and expression imposed by the ethnic majority can further contribute to alienate ethnic minorities and increase psychosocial disempowerment (a lack of control over one’s life). Conclusion: We theorise that structural and identity-based exclusion act as the primary drivers shaping variation in rates of psychotic disorder by ethnic minority status.

description: In this work, a method is proposed for increasing the operational properties of wood by treating it with organomineral compositions based on arabinogalactan and silica. Scots pine (Pinus silvestris) was chosen as the object of the study. Three different treatments were used. One treatment was a pure aqueous solution of arabinogalactan, the second and third were compositions based on aqueous solutions of arabinogalactan with 5% and 10% (by weight) addition of highly dispersed silica, respectively. Arabinogalactan was used as a surfactant for silica nanoparticles and also as a film-forming agent. The hardness of the wood surface increased by 1.2–2.3 times and compressive strength along the fibers increased by 20–45% after treatment with an organic–mineral composition. Treatment with impregnating compositions did not lead to a significant decrease in moisture absorption and swelling.

description: A phenolic C6-C2-type lignin model compound with the β-O-4 bond, 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)ethanol (I), was acidolyzed in aqueous 82 vol% 1,4-dioxane containing 0.2 mol/L HBr, HCl, or H2SO4 at 85 °C. It was confirmed that about 15%, 15%, or 60%, respectively, of molecules of compound I do not primarily convert to the enol-ether compound, 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)ethene (II), but undergo direct β-O-4 bond cleavage. This contrasts with our previous result that most molecules of the corresponding non-phenolic compound primarily convert to the corresponding non-phenolic enol ether compound under the same conditions. The disappearance rates of compound I were markedly different between the acidolyses using three acids (HBr > HCl ≫ H2SO4), while those of compound II or the α-methyl-etherified derivative of compound I (III) were not largely different in its acidolysis under the same conditions. These results suggest that the marked difference in the acidolysis rates of compound I originates from the participation of Br− or Cl−. Acidolysis of the α-bromo-substituting derivative of compound I (IV) using HBr showed that Br− adds to the benzyl cation generated from compound I or III to afford compound IV, which consecutively undergoes the HBr elimination to convert to compound II, bypassing direct conversion of the benzyl cation to compound II and resulting in the fast acidolysis.

description: Coalgebras provide a uniform framework to study dynamical systems, including several types of automata. In this paper, we make use of the coalgebraic view on systems to investigate, in a uniform way, under which conditions calculi that are sound and complete with respect to behavioral equivalence can be extended to a coarser coalgebraic language equivalence, which arises from a generalised powerset construction that determinises coalgebras. We show that soundness and completeness are established by proving that expressions modulo axioms of a calculus form the rational fixpoint of the given type functor. Our main result is that the rational fixpoint of the functor $FT$, where $T$ is a monad describing the branching of the systems (e.g. non-determinism, weights, probability etc.), has as a quotient the rational fixpoint of the "determinised" type functor $\bar F$, a lifting of $F$ to the category of $T$-algebras. We apply our framework to the concrete example of weighted automata, for which we present a new sound and complete calculus for weighted language equivalence. As a special case, we obtain non-deterministic automata, where we recover Rabinovich's sound and complete calculus for language equivalence.

description: The field of fair AI aims to counter biased algorithms through computational modelling. However, it faces increasing criticism for perpetuating the use of overly technical and reductionist methods. As a result, novel approaches appear in the field to address more socially-oriented and interdisciplinary (SOI) perspectives on fair AI. In this paper, we take this dynamic as the starting point to study the tension between computer science (CS) and SOI research. By drawing on STS and CSCW theory, we position fair AI research as a matter of 'organizational alignment': what makes research 'doable' is the successful alignment of three levels of work organization (the social world, the laboratory, and the experiment). Based on qualitative interviews with CS researchers, we analyze the tasks, resources, and actors required for doable research in the case of fair AI. We find that CS researchers engage with SOI research to some extent, but organizational conditions, articulation work, and ambiguities of the social world constrain the doability of SOI research for them. Based on our findings, we identify and discuss problems for aligning CS and SOI as fair AI continues to evolve.

description: We study the asymptotic behavior of the difference between the values at risk VaR(L) and VaR(L+S) for heavy tailed random variables L and S for application in sensitivity analysis of quantitative operational risk management within the framework of the advanced measurement approach of Basel II (and III). Here L describes the loss amount of the present risk profile and S describes the loss amount caused by an additional loss factor. We obtain different types of results according to the relative magnitudes of the thicknesses of the tails of L and S. In particular, if the tail of S is sufficiently thinner than the tail of L, then the difference between prior and posterior risk amounts VaR(L+S) - VaR(L) is asymptotically equivalent to the expectation (expected loss) of S.

description: Abstract: Digital health interventions (DHIs) have frequently been highlighted as one way to respond to increasing levels of mental health problems in children and young people. Whilst many are developed to address existing mental health problems, there is also potential for DHIs to address prevention and early intervention. However, there are currently limitations in the design and reporting of the development, evaluation and implementation of preventive DHIs that can limit their adoption into real-world practice. This scoping review aimed to examine existing evidence-based DHI interventions and review how well the research literature described factors that researchers need to include in their study designs and reports to support real-world implementation. A search was conducted for relevant publications published from 2013 onwards. Twenty-one different interventions were identified from 30 publications, which took a universal (n = 12), selective (n = 3) and indicative (n = 15) approach to preventing poor mental health. Most interventions targeted adolescents, with only two studies including children aged ≤10 years. There was limited reporting of user co-design involvement in intervention development. Barriers and facilitators to implementation varied across the delivery settings, and only a minority reported financial costs involved in delivering the intervention. This review found that while there are continued attempts to design and evaluate DHIs for children and young people, there are several points of concern. More research is needed with younger children and those from poorer and underserved backgrounds. Co-design processes with children and young people should be recognised and reported as a necessary component within DHI research as they are an important factor in the design and development of interventions, and underpin successful adoption and implementation. Reporting the type and level of human support provided as part of the intervention is also important in enabling the sustained use and implementation of DHIs.

description: This paper presents the main technical characteristics and working performances of coastal maritime surveillance radars, such as low-power High-Frequency Surface Wave Radars (HFSWR) and Over the Horizon Radars (OTHR). These radars have demonstrated to be a cost-effective long-range early-warning sensor for ship detection and tracking in coastal waters, sea channels and passages. In this work, multi-target tracking and data fusion techniques are applied to live-recorded data from a network of oceanographic HFSWR stations installed in Jindalee Operational Radar Network (JORN), Wellen Radar (WERA) in Ligurian Sea (Mediterranean Sea), CODAR Ocean Sebsorsin and in the German Bight (North Sea). The coastal Imaging Sciences Research (ISR) HFSWR system, Multi-static ISR HF Radar, Ship Classification using Multi-Frequency HF Radar, Coastal HF radar surveillance of pirate boats and Different projects of coastal HF radars for vessels detecting are described. Ship reports from the Automatic Identification System (AIS), recorded from both coastal and satellite Land Earth Stations (LES) are exploited as ground truth information and a methodology is applied to classify the fused tracks and to estimate system performances. Experimental results for all above solutions are presented and discussed, together with an outline for future integration and infrastructures.
