Surficial sediments of Barkley Sound and adjacent continental shelf, Vancouver Island, British Columbia
Creators: name: Carter, Lionel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The bathymetry of Barkley Sound and the adjacent continental shelf off Vancouver Island, has been affected by glacial erosion. Several fjords (inlets) widen and coalesce to form the Sound, which is continuous with glacially eroded basins on the inner continental shelf. Basins are flanked by flat-topped banks, the larger of which merge with /the gently sloping outer shelf. Studies of surficial sediments for size, colour, mineralogy, organic carbon, CaCO₃ and fauna, led to recognition of five sediment types. (1) Modern sediments, at present accumulating in Barkley Sound and probably in continental shelf basins, are littoral sands and gravels, and deeper water, organic-rich muds. (2). Relict sands and well-rounded gravels mantle banks and parts of the outer continental shelf. (3) Authigenic sands composed of mixed-mineral glauconite pellets occur near the shelf break, where they are closely associated with (4) residual sediments derived from submarine exposures of Tertiary mudstone. (5) Organic sediments, composed of calcareous invertebrate remains, occur on small banks and beaches in Barkley Sound, Mineralogically, relict and modern sands are similar, consisting mainly of detrital plagioclase and rock fragments. However, there are marked differences between heavy mineral suites, which led to establishment of the Barkley Sound and Continental Shelf Provinces. The ultimate sources of the sediments are mainly djorites and intermediate to basic volcanic rocks.

description: Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory skin disease treated using corticosteroids. The current topical therapy is very challenging owing to the physicochemical nature of corticosteroids and thick psoriatic stratum corneum. In this paper, clobetasol propionate-loaded niosomal gel was tailored to increase drug permeation and deposition (high local drug concentration) in the psoriatic area for effective management of psoriasis. Thin film hydration technique and sonication was used to formulate niosomal gel using Span 60, cholesterol 934 (as gelling agent). Size (188 nm) and entrapment efficacy (78%) of the niosomes were optimized using Box Behnken design (BBD) approach by selecting cholesterol = 261.6 mg, Span 60 = 1.49% and sonication time = 8.6 min. The optimized niosomal gel showed acceptable size (188 ± 6 nm), zeta potential (−38 ± 6 mV), and viscosity (8521 ± 121 cp) for topical application. The ex vivo permeation profile showed high permeability of niosomes (61.12 ± 1.89% in 24 h) compared to marketed clobetasol propionate cream USP (8.56 ± 2.5% in 24 h). Niosomal gel showed 5.1-fold improvement in drug deposition in stratum corneum and viable layers compared to marketed cream. Fluorescence study indicates high localization of vesicular system in the skin layers. Further, in imiquimod-induced psoriatic model, the PASI (psoriasis area severity index) was significantly decline (better efficacy) with gel compared to marketed cream. Thus, the data demonstrated the potential of niosomal gel to improve drug permeation and deposition in the affected skin for effective management of psoriasis.

A thermodynamic basis for prebiotic amino acid synthesis and the nature of the first genetic code

description: Of the twenty amino acids used in proteins, ten were formed in Miller's atmospheric discharge experiments. The two other major proposed sources of prebiotic amino acid synthesis include formation in hydrothermal vents and delivery to Earth via meteorites. We combine observational and experimental data of amino acid frequencies formed by these diverse mechanisms and show that, regardless of the source, these ten early amino acids can be ranked in order of decreasing abundance in prebiotic contexts. This order can be predicted by thermodynamics. The relative abundances of the early amino acids were most likely reflected in the composition of the first proteins at the time the genetic code originated. The remaining amino acids were incorporated into proteins after pathways for their biochemical synthesis evolved. This is consistent with theories of the evolution of the genetic code by stepwise addition of new amino acids. These are hints that key aspects of early biochemistry may be universal.

An airborne investigation of the structure of the atmospheric boundary layer over the tropical ocean
Creators: name: Donelan, Mark Anthony
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Across the air-sea interface there is a transfer of momentum, heat and moisture. Knowledge of these is essential to the understanding of oceanic and atmospheric circulations. This study is an investigation of the vertical turbulent transfers of momentum, heat and moisture in the boundary layer of the atmosphere using an instrumented light aircraft. The data were collected at several altitudes between 18 m and 500 m in the Atlantic trade wind zone east of the island of Barbados. Since the tropical ocean is the primary source of heat input to the atmospheric heat engine, good estimates, in this region, of the transfers of heat and moisture and their vertical variations are essential to any global numerical atmospheric prediction scheme. The fluctuations of the velocity components, temperature and humidity and the transfers of momentum, heat and moisture were investigated, primarily by means of their spectra and cospectra. It was found that: ninety percent of the heat input to the atmosphere was in the form of latent heat; the sensible heat flux was positive (upward) at the small scales generated near the surface and negative at the large scales due to subsiding air; the latent heat flux was positive at all scales and similar in spectral distribution to the momentum flux; the flow appeared to be anisotropic even at scales one hundred times smaller than the distance from the boundary; the drag coefficient, from direct measurements of the momentum flux (or stress), was (1.45±0.08) x 10⁻³; shear generated turbulence was not entirely dissipated locally.

description: Within a Bayesian decision theoretic framework we investigate some asymptotic optimality properties of a large class of multiple testing rules. A parametric setup is considered, in which observations come from a normal scale mixture model and the total loss is assumed to be the sum of losses for individual tests. Our model can be used for testing point null hypotheses, as well as to distinguish large signals from a multitude of very small effects. A rule is defined to be asymptotically Bayes optimal under sparsity (ABOS), if within our chosen asymptotic framework the ratio of its Bayes risk and that of the Bayes oracle (a rule which minimizes the Bayes risk) converges to one. Our main interest is in the asymptotic scheme where the proportion p of "true" alternatives converges to zero. We fully characterize the class of fixed threshold multiple testing rules which are ABOS, and hence derive conditions for the asymptotic optimality of rules controlling the Bayesian False Discovery Rate (BFDR). We finally provide conditions under which the popular Benjamini-Hochberg (BH) and Bonferroni procedures are ABOS and show that for a wide class of sparsity levels, the threshold of the former can be approximated by a nonrandom threshold.

description: How can we balance our reliance on global networks of PIDs against national priorities? How can PID providers manage and develop research infrastructures to support international research activities whilst meeting the needs of researchers who operate in the local contexts in which research is actually done? In the UK we have developed a unified national approach to these questions, with the goal of representing our community more effectively on the global stage. We have brought together researchers, funders, administrators, publishers, librarians and technologists in a national coordinating committee especially for PIDs. We have identified the top priorities (PIDs, policies, and workflows) and we are working as a unified voice to connect with PID communities of practice from around the world. We conduct research to inform our consensus decisions, and have used this to build out long term strategic roadmaps to help our researchers and international partners alike benefit from common open PIDs. Can this approach scale? Can it really support the stability and growth of the PID network? Join us to discuss our vision - and the possible pitfalls along the way - as we strive to be the best node in the PID network we possibly can be.

Numerical Analysis of some Generalized Casimir Pistons

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Casimir force due to a scalar field on a piston in a cylinder of radius $r$ with a spherical cap of radius $R>r$ is computed numerically in the world-line approach. A geometrical subtraction scheme gives the finite interaction energy that determines the Casimir force. The spectral function of convex domains is obtained from a probability measure on convex surfaces that is induced by the Wiener measure on Brownian bridges the convex surfaces are the hulls of. The vacuum force on the piston by a scalar field satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions is attractive in these geometries, but the strength and short-distance behavior of the force depends crucially on the shape of the piston casing. For a cylindrical casing with a hemispherical head, the force for $a/R\sim 0$ does not depend on the dimension of the casing and numerically approaches $\sim - 0.00326(4)\hbar c/a^2$. Semiclassically this asymptotic force is due to short, closed and non-periodic trajectories that reflect once off the piston near its periphery. The semiclassical estimate $-\hbar c/(96πa^2)(1+2\sqrt{R^2-r^2}/a)$ for the force when $a/r\ll r/R\leq 1$ reproduces the numerical results within statistical errors.

description: Among research funders, there is increasing interest in a more in depth understanding of both the effects of funded research projects and the performance of funding instruments. Although research funding organisations collect a lot of information about research projects they fund, it is often difficult to re-use this information for strategic decision making. Challenges in collecting good quality, reusable data are multiple and intertwined. They include researchers failing to register their outputs on funders’ systems, name ambiguities of both people and institutions, and the use of a wide range of metadata practices. Together, these information challenges undermine funders’ ability to systematically assess the outcomes of funded research. In this session, we present a ‘holistic’ PID strategy to improve the Dutch Research Council’s (NWO) capacity to analyze the effects of the research it funds. In this strategy, developed together with SURF (Cooperative for ICT in Dutch education and research), we propose implementation of persistent identifiers in NWO’s grant and reporting workflows, together with recommendations for national and international stakeholder engagement. Given the international nature of research and associated infrastructures, it is particularly important to ensure that national efforts are also well coordinated internationally. As funders have occupied attention space at PIDapalooza since its inception, our aim is to join this tradition and call on PID-engaged and PID-curious funders to join our session. We invite comment and critique on the NWO PID strategy, and ideas about ways in which funders can work together to help shape the PID ecosystem.

description: The derivation of the Feynman rules for lattice perturbation theory from actions and operators is complicated, especially for highly improved actions such as HISQ. This task is, however, both important and particularly suitable for automation. We describe a suite of software to generate and evaluate Feynman rules for a wide range of lattice field theories with gluons and (relativistic and/or heavy) quarks. Our programs are capable of dealing with actions as complicated as (m)NRQCD and HISQ. Automated differentiation methods are used to calculate also the derivatives of Feynman diagrams.

Tales for Children

description: The children's tale in the title represents a small exception to Warburg’s veto not to publish any material from the Schlangenritual conference. In spite of the simple and childish style with which the ritual is here narrated, and for all the text’s brevity, the tale is of great interest because it contains such symbolic nuclei as the necessity of rain, the lightning bolt, the snake, and the mask, all of which were central to Warburg’s argumentation. The article was published anonymously in the children's newspaper “Jugend Insel” by Berlin-based publisher Jugendbücher. Aby Warburg and Fritz Saxl’s joint authorship is confirmed by a receipt from the publisher and the correspondence with Judenbücher.

description: We present a novel extended-cavity diode laser (ECDL) based on a modified Littrow configuration. The coarse wavelength adjustment via the rotation of a diffraction grating is decoupled from the fine tuning of the external cavity modes by positioning a piezo transducer behind the diode laser, making the laser robust against misalignment and hysteresis even with long external cavities. Two laser prototypes with external cavities of different lengths were tested with a 780 nm laser diode, and locked to an atomic reference. We observe a mode-hop-free frequency tunability broader than the free spectral range of the external cavity upon changes of its length. The design is well suited to atomic and molecular experiments demanding a high level of stability over time.

Internal waves in the Strait of Georgia
Creators: name: Gargett, Ann Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Observed properties of the internal wave groups which occur in the southern Strait of Georgia are summarized, with particular emphasis on those properties which must be explained by any theory of generation. Current measurements within Boundary Pass are described. These measurements suggest a generation mechanism in the form of impulsive disturbances to the stratified water mass within the Strait, caused by the abrupt changes in current speed which are observed to characterize the tidal flow close to both turns of the tide. Such a mechanism is shown to explain the most important observed properties: origin in space near the mouths of the passes between the Gulf Islands, origin in time near both turns of the tide, uni-directional propagation into the Strait, and origin of a varying number of groups on one turn of the tide. The form of wave groups which result from the initial-value problem for a stratified fluid is examined. A linear model is shown to result in wave groups which are of the same general form as the groups observed in the Strait, but much less compact, indicating the necessity of some effect to counteract dispersion. Since observed waves are of distinctly finite amplitude, nonlinear effects were included and time-dependent theory developed for "long-short" waves in a thin-layer system, characteristic of the southern Strait. For a restricted class of initial conditions, solutions are obtained by a comparison technique, using known solutions of the Korteweg-deVries equation. This class of solutions suggests that the general initial-value problem results, for large x and t, in a number of "solitons", individual solitary waves of the thin-layer system. Surface effects associated with the internal waves in the Strait are described, and the reflectivity changes examined in some detail. The usual explanation of the effect of shallow internal waves on the surface wave field is in terms of wave damping by a surface organic film which is periodically expanded and contracted by internal wave-induced motions. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the effect may equally well, be-due to periodic changes in-surface wave amplitude and vector wave number caused-by radiation stress effects induced by the presence of internal waves.
A Combinatorial Proof of the Dense Hindman Theorem

description: The Dense Hindman's Theorem states that, in any finite coloring of the integers, one may find a single color and a "dense" set $B_1$, for each $b_1\in B_1$ a "dense" set $B_2^{b_1}$ (depending on $b_1$), for each $b_2\in B_2^{b_1}$ a "dense" set $B_3^{b_1,b_2}$ (depending on $b_1,b_2$), and so on, such that for any such sequence of $b_i$, all finite sums belong to the chosen color. (Here density is often taken to be "piecewise syndetic", but the proof is unchanged for any notion of density satisfying certain properties.) This theorem is an example of a combinatorial statement for which the only known proof requires the use of ultrafilters or a similar infinitary formalism. Here we give a direct combinatorial proof of the theorem.

description: We consider the self-energy and the self-force for scalar massive and massless particles at rest in the wormhole space-time. We develop a general approach to obtain the self-force and apply it to the two specific profiles of the wormhole throat, namely, with singular and with smooth curvature. We found that the self-force changes its sign at the point where nonminimal coupling $ξ= 1/8$ (for massless case) and it tends to infinity for specific values of $ξ$. It may be attractive as well repulsive depending on the profile of the throat. For massless particle and minimal coupling case the electromagnetic results are recovered.

description: We investigate the lattice Coulomb glass model in three dimensions via Monte Carlo simulations. No evidence for an equilibrium glass phase is found down to very low temperatures, although the correlation length increases rapidly near T=0. A charge-ordered phase (COP) exists at low disorder. The transition to this phase is consistent with the Random Field Ising universality class, which shows that the interaction is effectively screened at moderate temperature. For large disorder, the single-particle density of states near the Coulomb gap satisfies the scaling relation g(e,T)=T^δf(|e|/T) with δ= 2.01 +/- 0.05 in agreement with the prediction of Efros and Shklovskii. For decreasing disorder, a crossover to a larger effective exponent occurs due to the proximity of the COP.

On the Generalized Massive Gravity in $AdS_3$

description: In this note we investigate the generalized massive gravity in asymptotically $AdS_3$ spacetime by combining the two mass terms of topological massive gravity and new massive gravity theory. We study the linearized excitations around the $AdS_3$ background and find that at a specific value of a certain combination of the two mass parameters (chiral line), one of the massive graviton solutions becomes the left moving massless mode. It is shown that the theory is chiral at this line under Brown-Henneaux boundary condition. Because of this degeneration of the gravitons the new log solution which has a logarithmic asymptotic behavior is also a solution to this gravity theory at the chiral line. The log boundary condition which was proposed to accommodate this log solution is proved to be consistent at this chiral line. The resulting theory is no longer chiral except at a special point on the chiral line, where another new solution with log-square asymptotic behavior exists. At this special point, we prove that a new kind of boundary condition called log-square boundary condition, which accommodates this new solution, can be consistent.

Acomys russatus

description: 20. Golden Spiny Mouse, Acomys (Acomys) russatus (Wagner, 1840)
(IUCN Red List: LC)
Subspecies: A. r. lewisi Atallah, 1967.
Distribution: Terraces of black lava rocks in the southwest region (Fig. 26).
Previous records: Al-Bargasha and Sakra (Shehab et al. 2018).
Remarks: Burgin et al. (2020) synonymized lewisi with the nominal subspecies, quoting Qumsiyeh et al. (1986). This reference claims that russatus and lewisi are conspecific but not con-subspecific. Later on, Qumsiyeh (1996) quoted A. russatus lewisi as a valid subspecies, which is extremely distinctive being melanistic and isolated in the hamad and lava rocks.
Acomys dimidiatus is listed for Syria by Musser & Carleton (2005) and Cassola (2016) but with no details. On the other hand, dimidiatus was not mapped for the country by Map of Life (MOL: https://mol.org/species/ Acomys_ dimidiatus) and Al-Jumaily (1998) explicitly denied its presence in Syria. Similarly, Bates (1994) in his thorough compilation of locality records of spiny mice, stated for A. cahirinus (with dimidiatus as a junior synonym) “no exact locality” in Syria. The species is listed from Syria by VertNet (2023); however, our investigation revealed that those specimens were obtained from Wady Kerak, Dead Sea in Jordan. We were unable to confirm the occurrence of A. dimidiatus in Syria.

description: The max-product algorithm, a local message-passing scheme that attempts to compute the most probable assignment (MAP) of a given probability distribution, has been successfully employed as a method of approximate inference for applications arising in coding theory, computer vision, and machine learning. However, the max-product algorithm is not guaranteed to converge to the MAP assignment, and if it does, is not guaranteed to recover the MAP assignment. Alternative convergent message-passing schemes have been proposed to overcome these difficulties. This work provides a systematic study of such message-passing algorithms that extends the known results by exhibiting new sufficient conditions for convergence to local and/or global optima, providing a combinatorial characterization of these optima based on graph covers, and describing a new convergent and correct message-passing algorithm whose derivation unifies many of the known convergent message-passing algorithms. While convergent and correct message-passing algorithms represent a step forward in the analysis of max-product style message-passing algorithms, the conditions needed to guarantee convergence to a global optimum can be too restrictive in both theory and practice. This limitation of convergent and correct message-passing schemes is characterized by graph covers and illustrated by example.

description: We compute the full O(alpha_s) supersymmetric (SUSY) QCD corrections for neutralino annihilation into massive quarks through gauge or Higgs bosons and squarks in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), including the known resummation of logarithmically enhanced terms. The numerical impact of the corrections on the extraction of SUSY mass parameters from cosmological data is analyzed for gravity-mediated SUSY breaking scenarios and shown to be sizable, so that these corrections must be included in common analysis tools.

description: We investigate the possibility of generalizing Gopakumar's microscopic derivation [1] of Witten diagrams in large N free quantum field theory to interacting theories. For simplicity we consider a massless, matrix valued real scalar field with $Φ^h$ interaction in d-dimensions. Using Schwinger's proper time formulation and organizing the sum over Feynman graphs by the number of loops $\ell$, we show that the two-point function can be expressed as a sum over boundary-to-boundary propagators of bulk scalars in $AdS_{d+1}$ with mass determined by $\ell$.

description: We consider the Potts model in a magnetic field on an arbitrary graph $G$. Using a formula of F. Y. Wu for the partition function $Z$ of this model as a sum over spanning subgraphs of $G$, we prove some properties of $Z$ concerning factorization, monotonicity, and zeros. A generalization of the Tutte polynomial is presented that corresponds to this partition function. In this context we formulate and discuss two weighted graph-coloring problems. We also give a general structural result for $Z$ for cyclic strip graphs.

Matrix and tensor autoregressive models
Creators: name: Li, Zebang
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: Contemporary time series analysis has seen more and more tensor type data, from many fields. For example, stocks can be grouped according to Size, Book-to-Market ratio, and Operating Profitability, leading to a 3-way tensor observation at each month. This thesis proposes two approaches for building autoregressive models for tensor and matrix-valued time series. The first approach is focused on developing tensor autoregressive models, which keeps the inherent tensor structure by using the multi-linear autoregressive terms. The second approach focuses on cointegration analysis for the non-stationary matrix process that admits unit roots, which provides a framework for identifying and modeling long-term relationships in the matrix-valued time series. Together, these two approaches offer a powerful toolkit for analyzing complex and high-dimensional tensor-valued time series data. In the first project, we propose a multi-linear autoregressive model for tensor-valued time series. Our model extends the MAR model to the tensor-valued time series, also allowing multiple lags and multiple terms for each lag in the autoregression. The proposed model incorporates multi-linear autoregressive terms to maintain the tensor structure and provide corresponding interpretations. We introduce three estimators based on the projection, the least squares, and the maximum likelihood principles. Both the least squares estimator (LSE) and the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) are obtained by iterative algorithms. We establish asymptotics in fix and high dimensions. We also develop an information criterion to select the autoregressive order and the number of terms for each lag, and establish the model selection consistency. We conduct comprehensive simulations to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in various settings. Moreover, we apply our model to two real-world data examples: the Fama-French portfolio monthly return data, and the Manhattan taxi traffic data. Our approach consistently outperforms the traditional methods in both applications. In the second project, we propose a novel cointegrated autoregressive model for matrix-valued time series, with bi-linear cointegrating vectors corresponding to the rows and columns of the matrix data. Compared to the traditional cointegration analysis, our proposed matrix cointegration model better preserves the inherent structure of the data and enables corresponding interpretations. To estimate the cointegrating vectors as well as other coefficients, we introduce two types of estimators based on least squares and maximum likelihood. We investigate the asymptotic properties of the cointegrated matrix autoregressive model under the existence of trend and establish the asymptotic distributions for the cointegrating vectors, as well as other model parameters. We conduct extensive simulations to demonstrate its superior performance over traditional methods. In addition, we apply our proposed model to Fama-French portfolios and develop a effective pairs trading strategy.
