description: The recurrence times between extreme events have been the central point of statistical analyses in many different areas of science. Simultaneously, the Poincaré recurrence time has been extensively used to characterize nonlinear dynamical systems. We compare the main properties of these statistical methods pointing out their consequences for the recurrence analysis performed in time series. In particular, we analyze the dependence of the mean recurrence time and of the recurrence time statistics on the probability density function, on the interval whereto the recurrences are observed, and on the temporal correlations of time series. In the case of long-term correlations, we verify the validity of the stretched exponential distribution, which is uniquely defined by the exponent $γ$, at the same time showing that it is restricted to the class of linear long-term correlated processes. Simple transformations are able to modify the correlations of time series leading to stretched exponentials recurrence time statistics with different $γ$, which shows a lack of invariance under the change of observables.

description: Additional file 6: Figure S6. The apoptotic cell death by SOD1 mutations (G85R and D90A) in fALS is related with miR-18b (miR-18b-5p) signaling pathway. (A) Immunoblot analysis showed that SOD1 (G85R and D90A) mutations increased both Hif1α and Mef2c. Mctp1 and Rarb were decreased by overexpressed SOD1 (G85R and D90A). Increased Bax and decreased Bcl1 proteins by SOD1 (G85R and D90A) were associated with apoptosis in NSC-34 cont cells. (B) RT-qPCR analysis explained that Hif1α and Mef2c were upregulated by SOD1 (G85R and D90A). (C) The mRNA levels of Mctp1 and Rarb was reduced by SOD1 (G85R and D90A). (D) Bax mRNA levels are increased and Bcl2 mRNA levels are decreased under overexpressed SOD1 (G85R and D90A) condition. (E) miR-18b (miR-18b-5p) was reduced by SOD1 (G85R and D90A) (F) miR-206 was upregulated by SOD1 (G85R and D90A). (G) The mRNA levels of SOD1 (G85R and D90A) was increased in NSC-34 cont cells. Empty vector served as a negative control (Cont). The data represent the average ± SEM of 5 separate experiments. Significantly different at *, p
Adjunctions and monads in categories and 2-categories
Creators: name: Gilbride, E. A. Bridget
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The study of 2-categories extends many of the constructions within category theory itself. In particular, this thesis investigates the important categorical constructions of an adjunction and a monad within the context of a 2-category. Chapter 1 introduces the fundamental notions of category theory, with an emphasis on presenting a wide variety of examples. It is a goal of this chapter that a reader unfamiliar with category theory is provided with sufficient background to follow subsequent chapters, as well as gain an appreciation for the power of category theory throughout mathematics. "The slogan is: 'Adjoints arise everywhere'," writes Saunders MacLane, one of the founders of Category Theory, in the preface to his book Categories for the Working Mathematician. Chapter 2 begins by defining the concept of adjoint functors; the second focus of this chapter is that of a monad. The relationship between these two is then discussed in detail. The notion of 2-categories is defined in Chapter 3. We go on to extrapolate many of the categorical structures discussed in Chapters 1 and 2 to 2-categorical structures.
Understanding Resemblance in Depiction: What Can we Learn from Wittgenstein?

description: Wittgenstein’s remarks on “seeing-as” have influenced several scholars working on depiction. They have especially inspired those who think that in order to understand depiction we should understand the specific kind of visual experience depictions arouse in the viewer (e.g. Gombrich [1960], Wollheim [1968; 1987]). In this paper I would like to go a different way. My hypothesis is that certain of Wittgenstein’s claims both in the Tractatus and in his later writings resonate well within the context of an objective resemblance account of depiction (Hyman, 2006).

Coherent optical control of spin-spin interaction in doped semiconductors

description: We provide a theory of laser-induced interaction between spins localized by impurity centers in a semiconductor host. By solving exactly the problem of two localized spins interacting with one itinerant exciton, an analytical expression for the induced spin-spin interaction is given as a function of the spin separation, laser energy, and intensity. We apply the theory to shallow neutral donors (Si) and deep rare-earth magnetic impurities (Yb) in III-V semiconductors. When the photon energy approaches a resonance related to excitons bound to the impurities, the coupling between the localized spins increases, and may change from ferromagnetic to anti-ferromagnetic. This light-controlled spin interaction provides a mechanism for the quantum control of spins in semiconductors for quantum information processing; it suggests the realization of spin systems whose magnetic properties can be controlled by changing the strength and the sign of the spin-spin interaction.

description: The study aims to reveal Australian households’ perceptions of climate change and their preferences for climate change mitigation actions. A web-based survey was conducted in November 2008 in which about 600 New South Wales households were asked for their willingness to bear extra household expenditure to support the ‘Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS)’ as proposed by the Australian government. The Contingent Valuation Method (CVM), a widely used non-market valuation technique, was applied using the single bounded dichotomous choice elicitation format. Results of the study demonstrate that, currently, there is a positive demand for climate change mitigation action in Australia. The main motivation for this positive demand stems from a desire to avoid climate change. However, society’s willingness to pay (WTP) for climate change mitigation is shown to be significantly curbed by uncertainties regarding the extent of climate change and the effectiveness of climate change policy. Global cooperation (major greenhouse gas emitting countries implementing similar scheme) plays an important role in determining Australian households’ support for the CPRS. Only when cooperation is assumed, do the benefits of the CPRS, as estimated by respondents’ WTP, exceed its costs.

description: Status of determination of the neutrino masses and mixing is formulated and possible uncertainties, especially due to presence of the sterile neutrinos, are discussed. The data hint an existence of special ``neutrino'' symmetries. If not accidental these symmetries have profound implications and can substantially change the unification program. The key issue on the way to underlying physics is relations between quarks and leptons. The approximate quark-lepton symmetry or universality can be reconciled with strongly different patterns of masses and mixings due to nearly singular character of the mass matrices or screening of the Dirac structures in the double see-saw mechanism.

description: This paper examines how cultural values are accommodated in natural resource management and compares and contrast the approaches used in the Waikato River in New Zealand, the Murray-Darling Basin in Australia, and the Colorado River in the USA. Economics plays an integral part in the management of rivers in these case studies and two distinct approaches are used; privatization and co-management. The paper reviews these approaches and proffers suggestions on how indigenous knowledge, cultural and social relationships, and social, cultural, and economic wellbeing may be integrated in a multi-cultural approach.

description: Ginzburg and Nakajima have given two different geometric constructions of quotients of the universal enveloping algebra of sl_n and its irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight representations using the convolution product in the Borel-Moore homology of flag varieties and quiver varieties respectively. The purpose of this paper is to explain the precise relationship between the two constructions. In particular, we show that while the two yield different quotients of the universal enveloping algebra, they produce the same representations and the natural bases which arise in both constructions are the same. We also examine how this relationship can be used to translate the crystal structure on irreducible components of quiver varieties, defined by Kashiwara and Saito, to a crystal structure on the varieties appearing in Ginzburg's construction, thus recovering results of Malkin.

description: Le XVIIIe siècle est celui d’une évolution manifeste de la perception de l’auteur, qui devient une personnalité, un objet d’admiration, de curiosité, voire de répulsion. Au succès des œuvres littéraires elles-mêmes se lie la multiplication des représentations de l’auteur, devenu le sujet d’anecdotes qui circulent par voie de presse, et dont l’image se diffuse par le portrait, ses reproductions et ses déclinaisons. Le présent article entend s’attacher aux rapports entre le portrait d’auteur et la notion de célébrité littéraire au XVIIIe siècle à travers deux trajectoires diamétralement opposées : celle de l’écrivain Laurence Sterne et celle du philosophe Bernard Mandeville.

The Content of a Seeing-As Experience

Year: 2013

description: In this paper I will claim that the different phenomenology of seeing-as experiences of ambiguous figures matches a difference in their intentional content. Such a content is non-conceptual when the relevant seeing-as experience is just an experience of organizational seeing-as. It is partially conceptual when the relevant seeing-as experience is an overall experience of seeing something as a picture that is identical with Wollheim’s seeing-in experience and is constituted by an experience of organizational seeing-as (its configurational fold) and by an experience of knowingly illusory seeing-as (its recognitional fold). To my mind, Wittgenstein’s reflections on seeing-as have anticipated these claims.

description: The sources of preference uncertainty in contingent valuation (CV) studies have rarely been investigated from a theoretical standpoint. This paper proposes a holistic theoretical framework of preference uncertainty that combines microeconomic theory with the theories of cognitive psychology. Empirical testing of the proposed theoretical model was carried out in Australia in the context of a national ‘Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS)’ to be introduced in 2010. Two separate ordered probit models for a certainty score associated with CV ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ responses were estimated. The results of the estimated regression models provide evidence supporting the hypotheses drawn from the theoretical model.

Some Reflections on Seeing-as, Metaphor-Grasping and Imagining

description: In this paper I examine the frequently made claim that grasping a metaphor is a kind of ‘seeing-as’. I describe several ways in which it might be thought that metaphor-grasping is importantly similar to seeing-as, such that an extension of the latter category is though justified to include the former. For some of these similarities, I suggest they are illusory; for others, I argue that they are shared in virtue of the membership of both seeing-as and metaphor-grasping in some much broader category, and so don’t obviously motivate thinking of metaphor-grasping as seeing-as. My aim is modest: not to deny that metaphor-grasping is a kind of seeing-as, but only to suggest that it should not be too quickly accepted.

A quantum measure of coherence and incompatibility
Creators: name: Herbut, Fedor
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The well-known two-slit interference is understood as a special relation between observable (localization at the slits) and state (being on both slits). Relation between an observable and a quantum state is investigated in the general case. It is assumed that the amount of ceherence equals that of incompatibility between observable and state. On ground of this, an argument is peresented that leads to a natural quantum measure of coherence, called "coherence or incompatibility information". Its properties are studied in detail making use of 'the mixing property of relative entropy' derived in this article. A precise relation between the measure of coherence of an observable and that of its coarsening is obtained and discussed from the intutitive point of view. Convexity of the measure is proved, and thus the fact that it is an information entity is established. A few more detailed properties of coherence information are derived with a view to investigate final-state entanglement in general repeatable measurement, and, more importantly, general bipartite entanglement in follow ups of this study.

The incremental bulk modulus, Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio in nonlinear isotropic elasticity: physically reasonable response

description: An incremental (or tangent) bulk modulus for finite isotropic elasticity is defined which compares an increment in hydrostatic pressure with the corresponding increment in relative volume. Its positivity provides a stringent criterion for physically reasonable response involving the second derivatives of the strain energy function. Also, an average (or secant) bulk modulus is defined by comparing the current stress with the relative volume change. The positivity of this bulk modulus provides a physically reasonable response criterion less stringent than the former. The concept of incremental bulk modulus is extended to anisotropic elasticity. For states of uniaxial tension an incremental Poisson's ratio and an incremental Young's modulus are similarly defined for nonlinear isotropic elasticity and have properties similar to those of the incremental bulk modulus. The incremental Poisson's ratios for the isotropic constraints of incompressibility, Bell, Ericksen, and constant area are considered. The incremental moduli are all evaluated for a specific example of the compressible neo-Hookean solid. Bounds on the ground state Lamé elastic moduli, assumed positive, are given which are sufficient to guarantee the positivity of the incremental bulk and Young's moduli for all strains. However, although the ground state Poisson's ratio is positive we find that the incremental Poisson's ratio becomes negative for large enough axial extensions.

description: We present a mathematical formulation of a theory of language change. The theory is evolutionary in nature and has close analogies with theories of population genetics. The mathematical structure we construct similarly has correspondences with the Fisher-Wright model of population genetics, but there are significant differences. The continuous time formulation of the model is expressed in terms of a Fokker-Planck equation. This equation is exactly soluble in the case of a single speaker and can be investigated analytically in the case of multiple speakers who communicate equally with all other speakers and give their utterances equal weight. Whilst the stationary properties of this system have much in common with the single-speaker case, time-dependent properties are richer. In the particular case where linguistic forms can become extinct, we find that the presence of many speakers causes a two-stage relaxation, the first being a common marginal distribution that persists for a long time as a consequence of ultimate extinction being due to rare fluctuations.

A note on fitting a generalized Moody diagram for wall modeled Large Eddy Simulations

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Motivated by the needs of wall modeled Large Eddy Simulation (LES), we introduce fits to numerical solutions of the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations in their simplest near-wall, boundary layer approximation including a mixing-length model. We formulate the problem such that independent dimensionless variables are those directly available in LES. We provide practical fits for the dependent variable, fits that encompass a smooth transition between the viscous sublayer and inertial logarithmic layer, and then progress first considering moderate pressure gradients as well as roughness effects under the assumption that the mixing-length is not affected by the pressure gradient. An alternative fit based on the empirical wall model of Nickels (J. Fluid Mech. vol.512, pp. 217-239, 2004) is also provided, taking into account possible effects of pressure gradient on turbulence near-wall structure. We then consider the case of general pressure gradients, both favorable and adverse, up to conditions of separation, for both smooth and rough surfaces. The proposed fitting functions constitute a generalized Moody chart, comply with analytical solutions valid in various asymptotic regimes, and obviate the need for numerical iterative solution methods or near-wall numerical integration of ordinary differential equations during LES.

description: Soil acidification is one of the major forms of soil degradation in higher rainfall areas of the tablelands of NSW. A grazing experiment was conducted near Sutton, NSW, to assess the effect of various rates of superphosphate, lime, sewage ash and stocking rates on wool production and sustainability between 1999 and 2008. The results from the discounted cash flow analysis show that the net present value of the treatment without lime, the lower rate of superphosphate and the lowest stocking rate returned the highest net present value of $266.30/ha. Raising the application of superphosphate from 125kg/ha every two to three years to 250kg/ha every year on un-limed and limed soil reduced the net present value by $278.70/ha and $249.30/ha, respectively. The addition of lime at the rate of 4t/ha on un-limed soil at the low superphosphate level reduced the net present value by about $234.60/ha. The net present value fell by $205.24/ha when the level of superphosphate rate increased to 250kg/ha every year. The net present value decreased as the level of stocking rate increased. We conclude that wool producers will be unlikely to use lime to ameliorate acid soil, even though production will not be sustainable, unless there are more favourable input and commodity prices in the market and government intervention.

description: BaZrS3, a prototypical chalcogenide perovskite, has been shown to possess a direct band gap, an exceptionally strong near band edge light absorption, and good carrier transport. Coupled with its great stability, non-toxicity with earth abundant elements, it is thus a promising candidate for thin film solar cells. However, its reported band gap in the range of 1.7-1.8 eV is larger than the optimal value required to reach the Shockley-Queisser limit of a single junction solar cell. Here we report the synthesis of Ba(Zr1-xTix)S3 perovskite compounds with a reduced band gap. It is found that Ti alloying is extremely effective in band gap reduction of BaZrS3: a mere 4 at% alloying decreases the band gap from 1.78 to 1.51 eV, resulting in a theoretical maximum power conversion efficiency of 32%. Higher Ti-alloying concentration is found to destabilize the distorted chalcogenide perovskite phase.
Generalised Stefan problems : linear analysis and computation
Creators: name: Donaldson, Roger David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: We consider elliptic problems in which the domain is separated into two regions by a free boundary, on which mixed Dirichlet-Neumann conditions are specified. Led by the classical Stefan condition applied to change of phase models, we consider idealised numerical methods which evolve the interface by a trial method that uses the error in one of the boundary conditions as the normal velocity of the boundary. Using linear perturbation analysis of simple cases, we show exactly which interfacial conditions lead to well-posed problems and which choices of velocities lead to convergent methods. Moreover, some velocities lead to methods having superior numerical properties. Analysis of numerics representing the free boundary by a cubic spline fit is presented, followed by an example computation. Related ongoing work is introduced.

description: Choosing a mechanism to encourage landholders to change their land management in order to deliver environmental outcomes is a complicated process. Careful instrument selection may count for little if uptake and adoption are insufficient to meet performance targets. Similarly, investors may require assurance that the proposed investment will deliver the stated goals. In order to reduce the uptake uncertainty facing policy makers we evaluate and describe several possible methods to guide and frame adoption targets. We conclude that referring to past adoption experience of a wide range of mechanisms offers the best approach to setting feasible adoption targets for future mechanisms. We call this adoption points of reference. This approach is tested by application to mechanisms focusing on delivering water quality improvements in GBR catchments. We conclude that the points of reference approach is appropriate and useful but should be supported by processes designed to incorporate the impact of heterogeneity and local knowledge and an emphasis on improving the accuracy of future data.

description: The evolution of a gas shell, swept by the supernova remnant of a massive first generation star, is studied with H_2 and HD chemistry taken into account. When a first-generation star explodes as a supernova, H_2 and HD molecules are formed in the swept gas shell and effectively cool the gas shell to temperatures of 32 K - 154 K. If the supernova remnant can sweep to gather the ambient gas, the gas shell comes to be dominated by its self-gravity, and hence, is expected to fragment. Our result shows that for a reasonable range of temperatures (200 K - 1000 K) of interstellar gas, the formation of second-generation stars can be triggered by a single supernova or hypernova.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The present paper is concerned with the study of the L² cohomology spaces of negatively curved manifolds. The first half presents a fmiteness and vanishing result obtained under some curvature assumptions, while the second half identifies a large class of metrics having the same L² cohomology as the Hyperbolic space. For the second part we rely on the Heat-Flow method initiated by M.Gafmey.

description: There has been a recent tendency to extol tradeable or marketable pollution permits or similar permits to use or exploit some natural resources, such as fish. They are often seen as a very effective way of maintaining environmental conditions in a desired way. However, considerable care is required in adopting such systems. If they are inappropriately designed, the government will lose its flexibility to control the state of the environment. Permits which give their owners absolute rights to emit certain quantities of pollution in perpetuity or entitle holders to use or appropriate a particular quantity of a natural resource in perpetuity can cause particular problems for government. They can for example, involve expensive buy-back schemes. There are, however, ways around the problem. Furthermore, holders or rights may have to pay fees to cover enforcement costs. Where tradeable permits have a very long-life, the question arises of how they should be allocated and whether those allocated these rights should be allowed to capture the rents. As discussed, changing ambient conditions may have to be allowed for in designing systems involving tradeable permits
Multiobjective optimization of the dynamic aperture for SLS 2.0 using surrogate models based on artificial neural networks

description: Modern synchrotron light source storage rings, such as the Swiss Light Source upgrade (SLS 2.0), use multi-bend achromats in their arc segments to achieve unprecedented brilliance. This performance comes at the cost of increased focusing requirements, which in turn require stronger sextupole and higher-order multipole fields for compensation and lead to a considerable decrease in the dynamic aperture and/or energy acceptance. In this paper, to increase these two quantities, a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is combined with a modified version of the well-known tracking code tracy. As a first approach, a massively parallel implementation of a MOGA is used. Compared to a manually obtained solution this approach yields very good results. However, it requires a long computation time. As a second approach, a surrogate model based on artificial neural networks is used in the optimization. This improves the computation time, but the results quality deteriorates. As a third approach, the surrogate model is re-trained during the optimization. This ensures a solution quality comparable to the one obtained with the first approach while also providing an order of magnitude speedup. Finally, good candidate solutions for SLS 2.0 are shown and further analyzed.

Language Games and Musical Understanding

description: Wittgenstein has often explored language games that have to do with musical objects of different sizes (phrases, themes, formal sections or entire works). These games can refer to a technical language or to common parlance and correspond to different targets. One of these coincides with the intention to suggest a way of conceiving musical understanding. His model takes the form of the invitation to "hear (something) as (something)": typically, to hear a musical passage as an introduction or as a conclusion or in a certain tonality. However one may ask to what extent or in what terms (literal or metaphorical) these procedures, and usually the intervention of language games, is requested by our common ways of understanding music. This article shows through the use of some examples that aspectual perception inherent to musical understanding does not require language games as a necessary condition (although in many cases the link between them seems very strong), in contradiction with the thesis of an essential linguistic character of music. At a basic level, it seems more appropriate to insist on the notion of a game: to understand music means to enter into the orbit of "music games" which show an autonomous functioning. Language games have, however, an important function when we develop this comprehension in the light of the criteria of judgment that substantiate the manner in which music is incorporated in and operates within specific forms of life.
