description: Some matrix models admit, on top of the usual 't Hooft expansion, an M-theory-like expansion, i.e. an expansion at large N but where the rest of the parameters are fixed, instead of scaling with N. These models, which we call M-theoretic matrix models, appear in the localization of Chern-Simons-matter theories, and also in two-dimensional statistical physics. Generically, their partition function receives non-perturbative corrections which are not captured by the 't Hooft expansion. In this paper, we discuss general aspects of these type of matrix integrals and we analyze in detail two different examples. The first one is the matrix model computing the partition function of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in three dimensions with one adjoint hypermultiplet and N_f fundamentals, which has a conjectured M-theory dual, and which we call the N_f matrix model. The second one, which we call the polymer matrix model, computes form factors of the 2d Ising model and is related to the physics of 2d polymers. In both cases we determine their exact planar limit. In the N_f matrix model, the planar free energy reproduces the expected behavior of the M-theory dual. We also study their M-theory expansion by using Fermi gas techniques, and we find non-perturbative corrections to the 't Hooft expansion.

Generalized Signal Alignment: On the Achievable DoF for Multi-User MIMO Two-Way Relay Channels

description: This paper studies the achievable degrees of freedom for multi-user MIMO two-way relay channels, where there are $K$ source nodes, each equipped with $M$ antennas, one relay node, equipped with $N$ antennas, and each source node exchanges independent messages with an arbitrary set of other source nodes via the relay. By allowing an arbitrary information exchange pattern, the considered channel model is a unified one. It includes several existing channel models as special cases: $K$-user MIMO Y channel, multi-pair MIMO two-way relay channel, generalized MIMO two-way X relay channel, and $L$-cluster MIMO multiway relay channel. Previous studies mainly considered the achievability of the DoF cut-set bound $2N$ at the antenna configuration $N < 2M$ by applying signal alignment. This work aims to investigate the achievability of the DoF cut-set bound $KM$ for the case $N\geq 2M$. To this end, we first derive tighter DoF upper bounds for three special cases of the considered channel model. Then, we propose a new transmission framework, generalized signal alignment, to approach these bounds. The notion of GSA is to form network-coded symbols by aligning every pair of signals to be exchanged in a compressed subspace at the relay. A necessary and sufficient condition to construct the relay compression matrix is given. We show that using GSA, the new DoF upper bound is achievable when i) $\frac{N}{M} \in \big(0, 2+\frac{4}{K(K-1)}\big] \cup \big[K-2, +\infty\big)$ for the $K$-user MIMO Y channel; ii) $\frac{N}{M} \in \big(0, 2+\frac{4}{K}\big] \cup \big[K-2, +\infty\big)$ for the multi-pair MIMO two-way relay channel; iii) $\frac{N}{M} \in \big(0, 2+\frac{8}{K^2}\big] \cup \big[K-2, +\infty\big)$ for the generalized MIMO two-way X relay channel. We also provide the antenna configuration regions for the general multi-user MIMO two-way relay channel to achieve the total DoF $KM$.

description: The fundamental theorem of geometry of rectangular matrices describes the general form of bijective maps on the space of all $m\times n$ matrices over a division ring $\mathbb{D}$ which preserve adjacency in both directions. This result proved by Hua in the nineteen forties has been recently improved in several directions. One can study such maps without the bijectivity assumption or one can try to get the same conclusion under the weaker assumption that adjacency is preserved in one direction only. And the last possibility is to study maps acting between matrix spaces of different sizes. The optimal result would describe maps preserving adjacency in one direction only acting between spaces of rectangular matrices of different sizes in the absence of any regularity condition (injectivity or surjectivity). A division ring is said to be EAS if it is not isomorphic to any proper subring. It has been known before that it is possible to construct adjacency preserving maps with wild behaviour on matrices over division rings that are not EAS. For matrices over EAS division rings it has been recently proved that adjacency preserving maps acting between matrix spaces of different sizes satisfying a certain weak surjectivity condition are either degenerate or of the expected simple standard form. We will remove this weak surjectivity assumption, thus solving completely the long standing open problem of the optimal version of Hua's theorem.

description: During the growth of crystals in impure solution, impurities can pin the flow of the elementary steps and decrease the growth rate or even arrest the crystal growth. In this work, for the first time, we showed that curcumin crystals can grow in impure solution that contains two structurally similar impurities, following a non-classical crystallisation pathway that deviates from the pinning mechanism. We showed that, in a highly impure solution that contains 20 wt% of impurities, a high supersaturation can initiate the crystal growth via sympathetic nucleation that involves the formation of new growth surfaces on the seed crystals. These new surfaces formed on the seed crystals at the expense of higher supersaturation act like active growth surfaces and dictate the entire crystal growth kinetics especially at lower supersaturations. We showed that, if we can artificially create new surfaces that look like giant macrosteps at the micron scale on the crystal surface, then these macrosteps can not only speed-up the crystallisation rate but also control the rate of transfer of impurities into the bulk crystals.
K-mouflage Cosmology: Formation of Large-Scale Structures

description: We study structure formation in K-mouflage cosmology whose main feature is the absence of screening effect on quasilinear scales. We show that the growth of structure at the linear level is affected by both a new time dependent Newton constant and a friction term which depend on the background evolution. These combine with the modified background evolution to change the growth rate by up to ten percent since $z\sim 2$. At the one loop level, we find that the nonlinearities of the K-mouflage models are mostly due to the matter dynamics and that the scalar perturbations can be treated at tree level. We also study the spherical collapse in K-mouflage models and show that the critical density contrast deviates from its $Λ$-CDM value and that, as a result, the halo mass function is modified for large masses by an order one factor. Finally we consider the deviation of the matter spectrum from $Λ$-CDM on nonlinear scales where a halo model is utilized. We find that the discrepancy peaks around $1\ h{\rm Mpc}^{-1}$ with a relative difference which can reach fifty percent. Importantly, these features are still true at larger redshifts, contrary to models of the chameleon-$f(R)$ and Galileon types.

Entanglement Spectra of Heisenberg Ladders of higher Spin

Subjects: subject: 530 Physik

description: We study the entanglement spectrum of Heisenberg spin ladders of arbitrary spin length S in the perturbative regime of strong rung coupling. For isotropic spin coupling the the entanglement spectrum is, within first order perturbation theory, always proportional to the energy spectrum of the single chain with a proportionality factor being also independent of S. A more complicated situation arises for anisotropic ladders of higher spin S>=1 since here even the unperturbed ground state has a nontrivial entanglement spectrum. Finally we discuss related issues in dimerized spin chains.
Universally optimal designs for two interference models

description: A systematic study is carried out regarding universally optimal designs under the interference model, previously investigated by Kunert and Martin [Ann. Statist. 28 (2000) 1728-1742] and Kunert and Mersmann [J. Statist. Plann. Inference 141 (2011) 1623-1632]. Parallel results are also provided for the undirectional interference model, where the left and right neighbor effects are equal. It is further shown that the efficiency of any design under the latter model is at least its efficiency under the former model. Designs universally optimal for both models are also identified. Most importantly, this paper provides Kushner'ss type linear equations system as a necessary and sufficient condition for a design to be universally optimal. This result is novel for models with at least two sets of treatment-related nuisance parameters, which are left and right neighbor effects here. It sheds light on other models in deriving asymmetric optimal or efficient designs.

description: The electric solar wind sail is a novel propellantless space propulsion concept. According to numerical estimates, the electric solar wind sail can produce a large total impulse per propulsion system mass. Here we consider using a 0.5 N electric solar wind sail for boosting a 550 kg spacecraft to Uranus in less than 6 years. The spacecraft is a stack consisting of the electric solar wind sail module which is jettisoned roughly at Saturn distance, a carrier module and a probe for Uranus atmospheric entry. The carrier module has a chemical propulsion ability for orbital corrections and it uses its antenna for picking up the probe's data transmission and later relaying it to Earth. The scientific output of the mission is similar to what the Galileo Probe did at Jupiter. Measurements of the chemical and isotope composition of the Uranian atmosphere can give key constraints to different formation theories of the Solar System. A similar method could also be applied to other giant planets and Titan by using a fleet of more or less identical probes.

description: Guava (Psidium guajava) leaf is commonly used as a medicine against gastroenteritis and child diarrhea by those who cannot afford or do not have access to antibiotics. This study was aimed to determine the antibacterial activity of Guava leaf (Psidium guajava) extracts on E. coli using agar well diffusion method. Two different extracts were obtained from the guava leaf (aqueous-soluble and ethyl acetate soluble extracts). Psidium guajava leaves were extracted with water and ethyl acetate using maceration extraction method. Phytochemical screening of the Psidium guajava leaf extracts was carried out using standard methods. Agar well diffusion and agar dilution methods were employed to determine the zone of inhibition, minimum inhibitory concentration, and minimum bactericidal concentration. The antibacterial test results showed that the Psidium guajava ethyl acetate and aqueous extracts have potential antimicrobial activity against Gramnegative bacteria. The Ethyl acetate extract showed the maximum zone of inhibition on test isolates (17mm at 100mg/ml) While the Aqueous extract showed the least inhibitory effect on test isolates (8mm at a concentration of 12.5mg/ml). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) showed that both E. coli isolates was sensitive to both Ethyl acetate and aqueous extract (at the lowest concentration of 12.5mg/ml). The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of aqueous extract was 100mg/ml for both the isolates and ethyl acetate extract for 50mg/ml for both the isolates, this result indicate that Guava leaf extracts have antibacterial activities against the test isolates, and the Ethyl acetate extract is more effective compared to the aqueous extract.

description: CELCIS, formerly SIRCC, has funded a series of ThemPra social pedagogy courses for residential childcare staff across Scotland. ThemPra is a small social enterprise consisting of German, English and Danish social pedagogy trainers. Their 10-day courses facilitate experiential and reflective learning, combining grounded childcare theory and social pedagogy principles and practice. Orkney local authority ran this course in 2011, cofunding delivery for a multi-agency group of 18 staff. CELCIS commissioned the Orkney training evaluation and the subsequent report was published in March 2012. The article provides a summary of the key findings which were captured over a period of 6 months. It also describes ‘what happened next’ in Orkney and considers this in terms of academic writing on learning transfer and sustainability of evaluation outcomes. A key aspect of the article is the link between the methodology of the course and its subsequent outcomes.

Optimal Hour-Ahead Bidding in the Real-Time Electricity Market with Battery Storage using Approximate Dynamic Programming

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)

description: There is growing interest in the use of grid-level storage to smooth variations in supply that are likely to arise with increased use of wind and solar energy. Energy arbitrage, the process of buying, storing, and selling electricity to exploit variations in electricity spot prices, is becoming an important way of paying for expensive investments into grid-level storage. Independent system operators such as the NYISO (New York Independent System Operator) require that battery storage operators place bids into an hour-ahead market (although settlements may occur in increments as small as 5 minutes, which is considered near "real-time"). The operator has to place these bids without knowing the energy level in the battery at the beginning of the hour, while simultaneously accounting for the value of leftover energy at the end of the hour. The problem is formulated as a dynamic program. We describe and employ a convergent approximate dynamic programming (ADP) algorithm that exploits monotonicity of the value function to find a revenue-generating bidding policy; using optimal benchmarks, we empirically show the computational benefits of the algorithm. Furthermore, we propose a distribution-free variant of the ADP algorithm that does not require any knowledge of the distribution of the price process (and makes no assumptions regarding a specific real-time price model). We demonstrate that a policy trained on historical real-time price data from the NYISO using this distribution-free approach is indeed effective.

description: Generation of mechanical squeezing has attracted a lot of interest for its nonclassical properties, applications in quantum information, and high-sensitivity measurement. Here we propose a detuning-switched method that can rapidly generate strong and stationary mechanical squeezing. The pulsed driving can dynamically transpose the optomechanical coupling into a linear optical force and maintain an effective mechanical frequency, which can introduce strong mechanical squeezing in a short time. Moreover, we show the obtained strong mechanical squeezing can be frozen by increasing the pulse intervals, leading to stationary mechanical squeezing with a fixed squeezing angle. Thus, our proposal provides fascinating insights and applications of modulated optomechanical systems.

Usage Based Clustering of Customers for Mobile Service Packaging
Creators: name: DEMELASH BIRU
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: Satisfaction of customers is the most important factor for mobile operators to be successful. This needs effective customer segmentation and segment targeted mobile service packaging and delivery. Segmentation differentiates customers into multiple groups that manifest different service needs and preferences, thus different service packages. It has been traditionally performed using demographic and value-based segmentation methods based on customer survey data. For improved efficiency, advanced clustering techniques that exploit existing historical customer data from network management system have been applied. Instead of using a single dimension of value-based segmentation, the historical data set with many features was applied to assess the customer service usage behavior from different dimensions. For a dataset with many attributes, such advanced clustering techniques have not been investigated in the Ethiopian context

description: The representation of people in tourism discourse has been recognised as one of problematic aspects of tourism (e.g. Jaworska, 2016; Wu, 2016). Previous research indicates that promotional materials and mass media represent guests as consumers (Ignatova, 2020b; Wu, 2016) relaxing and enjoying free time (Dann, 1996b), exclude hosts or portray them as servants, professional entertainers, cultural markers or part of the scenery (Ignatova, 2020b; Morgan & Pritchard, 1998). There are concerns that current representation maintains the asymmetric power relations between guests and hosts and can lead to social problems (Jaworska, 2016; White, 2007). There is a lack of studies on the representation of people in user-generated discourse. Moreover, a systematic comparison of tourism discourse about different city destinations might shed light on how the socio-cultural background of the destination might influence such representation. Furthermore, the existing analytical frameworks for the multimodal analysis of the representation of people (Kress & van Leeuwen, 2021; Machin & Mayr, 2012; van Leeuwen, 2008) are not suitable for systematic comparison of relatively large datasets. The current thesis aims to address this research gap by adapting the existing analytical frameworks and conducting a systematic corpus-assisted multimodal discourse analysis of the representation of people in 900 Tripadvisor travel reviews about three city destinations, Bangkok, Moscow, and London. The findings indicate that different modes convey different representations. Apart from the patterns previously identified in institutional discourse, there are representations characteristic of online travel reviews (OTRs), namely, the differentiation of the reviewers and their companions from other guests and portrayal of guests as active organisers. The results also demonstrate that the socio-cultural background of destinations can be reflected in such patterns as the representation of martial art trainers as mentors and friends. There are indications that power relations reflected and shaped by OTRs are more nuanced and multidirectional.

description: We study the cosmology of K-mouflage theories at the background level. We show that the effects of the scalar field are suppressed at high matter density in the early Universe and only play a role in the late time Universe where the deviations of the Hubble rate from its $Λ$-CDM counterpart can be of the order five percent for redshifts $1 \lesssim z \lesssim 5$. Similarly, we find that the equation of state can cross the phantom divide in the recent past and even diverge when the effective scalar energy density goes negative and subdominant compared to matter, preserving the positivity of the squared Hubble rate. These features are present in models for which Big Bang Nucleosynthesis is not affected. We analyze the fate of K-mouflage when the nonlinear kinetic terms give rise to ghosts, particle excitations with negative energy. In this case, we find that the K-mouflage theories can only be considered as an effective description of the Universe at low energy below $1$ keV. In the safe ghost-free models, we find that the equation of state always diverges in the past and changes significantly by a few percent since $z\lesssim 1$.

description: The recent experimental CMS and E-by-E ATLAS data on the elliptic anisotropy of particles in \PbPb collisions are used to extract parton medium cross-section and the quark-gluon plasma viscosity-to-entropy ratio within the incomplete equilibration medium model. Our method assumes extrapolation of the measured pseudorapidity spectrum of charged particles to low-$p_T$ range. Then the rapidity distribution of both charged and neutral hadrons is restored. The extracted value of the parton-medium cross section is found to be $\ds σ= (3.1 \pm 0.2) {\rm mb}$. It yields $η/s = 0.17 \pm 0.02$ for the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density in QGP phase. The last result is in a good agreement with the estimates obtained by calculations within the viscous hydrodynamics.

description: We study the ergodic properties of Delone-Anderson operators, using the framework of randomly coloured Delone sets and Delone dynamical systems. In particular, we show the existence of the integrated density of states and, under some assumptions on the geometric complexity of the underlying Delone sets, we obtain information on the almost-sure spectrum of the family of random operators. We then exploit these results to study the Lifshitz-tail behaviour of the integrated density of states of a Delone-Anderson operator at the bottom of the spectrum. Furthermore, we use Lifshitz-tail estimates as an input for the multi-scale analysis to prove dynamical localization.
description: 33 pages, 1 figure. Changes in Section 3: the main result on localization now holds for operators associated to all Delone sets in the hull, improving the previous version which excluded a set of measure zero. In particular, dynamical localization holds for the operator associated to the original Delone set

Subjects: : Diarrhea, knowledge and strategies, under-five year, prevention and Management

description: This study assesses the knowledge levels of mothers regarding diarrhea and their strategies for the prevention and management of diarrhea among children under the age of five. Quantitative research methods were used through purposive study. The study is based on two objective which is to find out the difference between educated and non-educated mothers; the relationship between knowledge and strategies for prevention of diarrheal diseases among under five (5) children in Bauchi State. Literature was reviewed on the Concept and types of Diarrhea; an empirical study was done. The population of the study consists of 792 mothers with under-five years children; data was collected through questionnaire using 5 point likert scale and sample t-test and PPMC was used for data analysis The findings reveal that there is a significant relationship between knowledge and practice of diarrheal management among mothers of under-five children in Azare metropolis, Bauchi State. Mothers employ a variety of preventive and management strategies, including improved hygiene practices, home remedies, and traditional healing methods. However, the study highlights the importance of providing mothers with accurate and evidence-based information on diarrhea prevention and management. The study found out there is significant relationship between Knowledge and practice of management against diarrhea disease and management strategies against diarrheal disease. The study recommends need for targeted educational interventions that empower mothers with the knowledge and skills required to prevent and manage diarrhea effectively. Community-based health programs should focus on disseminating accurate information on exclusive breastfeeding, ORT, and the importance of seeking timely medical care. Additionally, efforts should be made to address the specific challenges faced by mothers in rural and disadvantaged communities.

description: By the generator of the UrQMD model, event statistics for the products of kurtosis ($κ$) and variance ($σ^2$) of net-proton and net-charge multiplicity distributions are carefully studied. It is shown that the statistics at RHIC/BES below $\sqrt {s_{NN}} < 19.6$ GeV are not sufficient for using the method of Centrality Bin Width Correction (CBWC). Corresponding results are systematically underestimated. A way to improve the CBWC method is proposed. It can remove the statistics dependence of the data and reduce the initial size fluctuation as well.

Detailed descriptions for high-throughput repurposing of discarded abattoir ovine eyes to generate corneal grafts and aid circular economic practices in the United Arab Emirates

description: High-throughput platforms that can potentially generate substantial quantities of corneal grafts will be invaluable in addressing the existing global demand for keratoplasty. Slaughterhouses generate substantial quantities of underutilized biological waste that can be repurposed to reduce current environmentally unfriendly practices. Such efforts to support sustainability can simultaneously drive the development of transplantable ovine corneas and patient-specific bioartificial keratoprostheses. This study presents a dataset highlighting techniques that evaluated the development of a simplified, inexpensive, and high-throughput corneal xenograft platform. To our knowledge, this is the first dataset to be generated in the United Arab Emirates, outlining a platform that can produce dozens of native ovine xenografts and acellular corneal scaffolds that effectively preserve ocular transparency, transmittance, and ECM components. Such native grafts can then be genetically modified to reduce rejection and retrovirus transmission in recipients. Analogously, decellularization technologies can support corneal regeneration with attributes comparable to native xenografts.

description: Dick proved that all order $2$ digital nets satisfy optimal upper bounds of the $L_2$-discrepancy. We give an alternative proof for this fact using Haar bases. Furthermore, we prove that all digital nets satisfy optimal upper bounds of the $S_{p,q}^r B$-discrepancy for a certain parameter range and enlarge that range for order $2$ digitals nets. $L_p$-, $S_{p,q}^r F$- and $S_p^r H$-discrepancy is considered as well.

description: Using new spectroscopic observations obtained as part of the VIMOS Ultra-Deep Survey (VUDS), we perform a systematic search for overdense environments in the early universe ($z>2$) and report here on the discovery of Cl J0227-0421, a massive protocluster at $z=3.29$. This protocluster is characterized by both the large overdensity of spectroscopically confirmed members, $δ_{gal}=10.5\pm2.8$, and a significant overdensity in photometric redshift members. The halo mass of this protocluster is estimated, by a variety of methods, to be roughly $3\times10^{14}$ $\mathcal{M}_{\odot}$ at $z\sim3.3$, which, evolved to $z=0$ results in a halo mass rivaling or exceeding that of the Coma cluster. The properties of 19 spectroscopically confirmed member galaxies are compared with a large sample of VUDS/VVDS galaxies in lower density field environments at similar redshifts. We find tentative evidence for an excess of redder, brighter, and more massive galaxies within the confines of the protocluster relative to the field population, which suggests that we may be observing the beginning of environmentally-induced quenching. The properties of these galaxies are investigated, including a discussion of the brightest protocluster galaxy which appears to be undergoing vigorous coeval nuclear and starburst activity. The remaining member galaxies appear to have characteristics which are largely similar to the field population. Though we find weaker evidence of the suppression of the median star formation rates amongst and differences in stacked spectra of member galaxies with respect to the field, we defer any conclusions of these trends to future work with the ensemble of protostructures that are found in the full VUDS sample.

EVALUATION OF CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACT ON OMO GIBE BASIN (CASE STUDY OF GILGEL GIBE III RESERVIOR)
Creators: name: YEMSRACH BISHAW
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2012

description: Global climate change is known to influence regional hydrology, through changes in patterns of precipitation, stream flow and other hydrologic variables. With several plausible climate change scenarios in place for future, it is important to assess the possible impact on water resources, arising out of such scenarios. Such an exercise involves projections of climatic variables (e.g., temperature, humidity, mean sea level pressure etc.) at global scales, downscaling of larger scale climatic variables to local scale hydrologic variables and computation of hydrologic risk for use in water resources planning and management. This research presents the results of a study on downscaling large scale atmospheric variables simulated with General Circulation Models (GCMs) to meteorological variables at local scale in order to investigate the hydrological impact of possible future climate change in Omo Gibe Basin (Ethiopia).
