description: The combustion properties of natural DNA mixed with the nature‐derived thermoplastic cellulose acetate (CA) were determined. The flame retarding properties of DNA in mixtures with CA were significant and concentration dependent, the higher the DNA content the better the flame retardation. Ammonia was detected during the heating of CA‐DNA mixtures. In contrast, carbon monoxide (CO) formation was distinctly reduced during combustion of the CA mixtures with DNA when compared with pure CA. Thus, DNA can be considered as a natural and re‐growing polymeric flame‐retardant for versatile applications of CA‐based thermoplastic polymers in order to form eco‐friendly polymer mixtures.

description: In this short note, we describe the so-called homogeneous involution on finite-dimensional graded-division algebra over an algebraically closed field. We also compute their graded polynomial identities with involution. As pointed out by L. Fonseca and T. de Mello, a homogeneous involution naturally appears when dealing with graded polynomial identities and a compatible involution.

description: Detection of weak forces and precise measurement of time are two of the many applications of quantum metrology to science and technology. We consider a quantum system initialized in a pure state and whose evolution is governed by a Hamiltonian $H$; a measurement can later estimate the time $t$ for which the system has evolved. In this work, we introduce and study a fundamental trade-off which relates the amount by which noise reduces the accuracy of a quantum clock to the amount of information about the energy of the clock that leaks to the environment. Specifically, we consider an idealized scenario in which Alice prepares an initial pure state of the clock, allows the clock to evolve for a time $t$ that is not precisely known, and then transmits the clock through a noisy channel to Bob. The environment (Eve) receives any information that is lost. We prove that Bob's loss of quantum Fisher information (QFI) about $t$ is equal to Eve's gain of QFI about a complementary energy parameter. We also prove a more general trade-off that applies when Bob and Eve wish to estimate the values of parameters associated with two noncommuting observables. We derive the necessary and sufficient conditions for the accuracy of the clock to be unaffected by the noise. These are a subset of the Knill-Laflamme error-correction conditions; states satisfying these conditions are said to form a metrological code. We provide a scheme to construct metrological codes in the stabilizer formalism. We show that there are metrological codes that cannot be written as a quantum error-correcting code with similar distance in which the Hamiltonian acts as a logical operator, potentially offering new schemes for constructing states that do not lose any sensitivity upon application of a noisy channel. We discuss applications of our results to sensing using a many-body state subject to erasure or amplitude-damping noise.

description: A derivation of the Boltzmann equation from the Liouville equation by the use of the Grad limiting procedure in a finite volume is proposed. We introduce two scales of space-time: macro- and microscale and use the BBGKY hierarchy and the functional formulation of classical mechanics. According to the functional approach to mechanics, a state of a system of particles is formed from the measurements, which are rational numbers. Hence, one can speak about the accuracy of the initial probability density function in the Liouville equation. We assume that the initial data for the microscopic density functions are assigned by the macroscopic one (so, one can say about a kind of hierarchy and subordination of the microscale to the macroscale) and derive the Boltzmann equation, which leads to the entropy production.

description: Organ and tissue donation are part of quality end-of-life decisions in the intensive care unit. The efficacy of any organ and tissue donation process lies on the efficiency of individual steps in the process and not on reporting crude statistics. An examination of these individual steps allows not only for the identification of any possible shortcomings within a process, but provides a base on which comparisons to other systems can be made. The results of this study demonstrate that a process whereby organ and tissue donation is viewed as a measure of quality end-of-life care, and a process that is inherent to critical care, is efficient and could be adopted by other critical care groups. Further, if an efficient process exists, the ethical propriety of increasing organ supply using alternative sources can be examined.

description: In this paper, we prove that the Todd genus of a compact complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$ with vanishing odd degree cohomology is one if the automorphism group of $X$ contains a compact $n$-dimensional torus $\Tn$ as a subgroup. This implies that if a quasitoric manifold admits an invariant complex structure, then it is equivariantly homeomorphic to a compact smooth toric variety, which gives a negative answer to a problem posed by Buchstaber-Panov.

description: Polyphonic artistic thinking is a concept introduced by Mikhail Bakhtin to describe a way of thinking that allows for multiple perspectives and voices to coexist. This type of thinking is evident in both music and literature, and it can also be found in other art forms, such as performance art.
In this article, I will discuss the two-pronged characteristics of polyphonic artistic thinking: material structure and structural arrangement. I will then use these characteristics to analyze the performance artwork Li Zhanyang Vendor: Selling Bread. This performance combines two different performances (varied in layout and in items on sale), and the audience's interactions, into a whole by using counterpoint. This gives an exemplary application of polyphonic artistic thinking in contemporary art.

Further, by using anti-isospectral transformations, we obtain Hermitian as well as PT-invariant complex QES periodic potentials. We study in detail the various properties of the corresponding Bender-Dunne polynomials.

description: The pathogenic fungus Exserohilum rostratum has a wide niche and rich diversity in nature. It can cause disease symptoms on many hosts, including some important crops such as corn. It is known that E. rostratum can cause severe yield loss in some cases, and the infection rate of corn seeds can be as high as 85%, and the incidence of corn leaves can reach 18%. At present, the lack of information about the E. rostratum genome in the database is not conducive to the prevention of this pathogen. The emergence of new sequencing technologies provides a guarantee for obtaining high-quality pathogenic genomes. In this study, we used PacBio and Illumina sequencing technology to obtain the genome assembly of E. rostratum and analyzed its genome characteristics. See the NCBI database for additional information about this genome. The sequencing data has been submitted to NCBI with the accession number PRJNA738296. The Whole Genome Shotgun project has been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession JAHUAD000000000.

description: Controlling a distributed autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) formation is usually considered in the context of recovering the connectivity graph should a single UAV agent be lost. At the same time, little focus is made on how such loss affects the dynamics of the formation as a system. To compensate for the negative effects, we propose an adaptation algorithm that reduces the increasing interaction between the UAV agents that remain in the formation. This algorithm enables the autonomous system to adjust to the new equilibrium state. The algorithm has been tested by computer simulation on full nonlinear UAV models. Simulation results prove the negative effect (the increased final cruising speed of the formation) to be completely eliminated.

description: The formation of the electron-phonon induced bipolaron is shown to be feasible in organic semiconductors at the interface with dielectric gates due to the coupling of the carriers with interface vibrational modes and to the weak to intermediate strength of bulk electron-electron interaction. The polaronic bound states are found to be quite robust in a model with realistic strengths of electron coupling to both bulk and interface phonons. The crossover to nearly on-site bipolarons occurs for coupling values much smaller than those for nearly on-site polarons, but, on the other hand, it gives rise to an activated behavior of mobility with much larger activation energies. The results are discussed in connection with rubrene field-effect transistors.

Stylistic fusion in the Cabaret Songs of Benjamin Britten and W.H. Auden : a performer's analysis
Creators: name: Roberts, Erinn
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The Cabaret Songs of W.H. Auden and Benjamin Britten merge characteristics of a multitude of styles. The purpose of this document is to investigate the fusion of styles making up the Cabaret Songs and to analyze them from a performer’s perspective with the goal of providing collaborative partnerships with an historical and musical foundation on which to build their interpretation of the Cabaret Songs and thereby serve as a basis for informed performance decisions. Chapter 1 includes biographical information for both Benjamin Britten and W.H. Auden focusing on how the two artists met and discusses their working relationship during the seven years in which they collaborated. Also included is a short section of relevant biographical information on the singer/actress Hedli Anderson for whom the Cabaret Songs were created. Chapter 2 includes a brief overview of the history of the European cabaret-artistique and examines the creation and development of this art form. Examples of cabaret songs from other composers, namely Erik Satie, Kurt Weill, Friedrich Hollaender, and Noel Coward are given to show the musical soil of the era, from which the Britten and Auden pieces sprouted. Chapter 3 discusses the Cabaret Songs on a song-by-song basis and provides a musical analysis from a performer’s perspective, outlining the different musical influences in each song and investigating the cross-pollination of musical styles. The songs will be examined for characteristics of traditional European art song, operatic elements, American popular song elements, European dance rhythms and elements of original European cabaret.

description: Bipartite correlations generated by non-signalling physical systems that admit a finite-dimensional local quantum description cannot exceed the quantum limits, i.e., they can always be interpreted as distant measurements of a bipartite quantum state. Here we consider the effect of dropping the assumption of finite dimensionality. Remarkably, we find that the same result holds provided that we relax the tensor structure of space-like separated measurements to mere commutativity. We argue why an extension of this result to tensor representations seems unlikely.

description: The breathing pattern of Mouth Breathing (MB) implies the adaptation of body posture to facilitate the passage of airflow through the oral cavity, which can be prevented or reversed through physical exercise. However, there is no consensus on which is the best model of exercise program to minimise these postural adaptations. The purpose of the review was to investigate the effect of different physical exercise programs on the posture of mouth-breathing children and adolescents. The research was performed in Scopus, PubMed, Lilacs, Bireme, and Scielo databases in November 2022. The following descriptors were included: "mouth breather and exercise", "mouth breathing and exercise", "nasal obstruction and exercise", "mouth breather and exercises", "mouth breathing and exercises", and "nasal obstruction and exercises". Clinical trials related to the effect of physical exercise on the posture of MB children and adolescents were considered. Among 2796 identified studies, six were included. The mean score of the methodological quality scale of the selected studies was 5.5 points on a scale of 0 to 10. All studies showed an improvement in body posture after the exercise program. The exercise programs comprised muscle strengthening and stretching exercises, neuromuscular proprioceptive facilitation, and postural and diaphragmatic reeducation. The duration of the programs and the weekly frequency varied in the studies. Although it is difficult to compare studies and establish guidelines for formulating an exercise protocol, it was observed that upper limb strengthening and stretching exercises could effectively improve the body posture of MB children and adolescents.

 dissemination and communication operations and adds to D6.3 “Online and Media Prescence”. The
 dissemination efforts of the project comprise identifying the target groups and stakeholders in the
 context of the DECICE project and subsequently the planning, performance and reporting of all
 dissemination activities. In addition, the DECICE project will include stakeholder analyses to identify
 all relevant stakeholders, their interests and motivations related to the project. Further, it will include
 networking and cooperation with other EU funded projects by organizing joint meetings and
 workshops and attending third party events, conferences, workshops, and stakeholder meetings to
 disseminate the project’s results as well as writing peer reviewed articles for publication on the
 project’s results. Several training workshops and hackathons will be organized that illustrate how to
 use the DECICE solution. Finally, it will include establishing KPIs to evaluate the effectiveness of the
 dissemination activities. The plan will outline the specific messages for the different stakeholders
 (e.g., benefits that the project provides to each stakeholder) and the specific communication channels
 used to deliver them, such as website, social media, newsletters such as events and publications. This
 task implies also the organization and implementation of a final networking event, which will bring
 together members of the consortium, expert and advisory board, representatives of the R&D
 community, industry organizations and decision makers. The event will be an adequate forum to
 discuss the conclusions of DECICE and ensure its sustainable exploitation beyond the funding period.
 To ensure the high impact of the DECICE project, all partners are actively involved in the dissemination
 and exploitation activities and such responsibilities are shared between the consortium partners.

description: The effect of Mg codoping and its deposition mode on the Fe distribution in (Ga,Fe)N layers grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy is investigated. Both homogeneously- and digitally-Mg codoped samples are considered and contrasted to the case of (Ga,Fe)N layers obtained without any codoping by shallow impurities. The structural analysis of the layers by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and by high-resolution- and synchrotron x-ray diffraction gives evidence of the fact that in the case of homogenous-Mg doping, Mg and Fe competitively occupy the Ga-substitutional cation sites, reducing the efficiency of Fe incorporation. Accordingly, the character of the magnetization is modified from ferromagnetic-like in the non-codoped films to paramagnetic in the case of homogeneous Mg codoping. The findings are discussed vis-`a-vis theoretical results obtained by ab initio computations, showing only a weak effect of codoping on the pairing energy of two Fe cations in bulk GaN. However, according to these computations, codoping reverses the sign of the paring energy of Fe cations at the Ga-rich surface, substantiating the view that the Fe aggregation occurs at the growth surface. In contrast to the homogenous deposition mode, the digital one is found to remarkably promote the aggregation of the magnetic ions. The Fe-rich nanocrystals formed in this way are distributed non-uniformly, giving reason for the observed deviation from a standard superparamagnetic behavior.

The classical and quantum complexity of the Goldreich-Levin problem with applications to bit commitment
Creators: name: Adcock, Mark R.A.

Year: 2004

description: Bibliography: p. 125-127
description: The classical Goldreich-Levin (G-L) theorem is presented as a block-box query prob­lem, referred to herein as the G-L problem. The query complexity of this problem is bounded in both classical and quantum settings. The well-known upper bound of the classical G-L problem is analyzed in a pedagogical manner. A proof of the lower bound of the classical G-L problem is given using the techniques of classical information theory. This classical analysis is then extended to the realm of quantum computin g by noting the similarity of the noiseless G-L problem to the inner-product query problem solved by the quantum circuit defined by Bernstein and Vazirani (B-V) . An upper bound of the query complexity of the quantum G-L problem is proven by extension of the B-V circuit to incorporate noisy inner-product queries. The lower bound of the query complexity of the quantum G-L problem is proven by adapting the proof of the optimaliy of the quantum search algorithm to include modified inner-product queries. Both the classical and quantum versions of the Goldreich-Levi n theorem have cryptographic applications in the area of bit commitment. A discussion of the im­possibility of unconditional quantum bit commitment is followed by the presentation of both classical and quantum bit commitment protocols that are based on the as­sumption of the existence of classical and quantum one-way permutations. The relative security of the classical and quant m protocols are compared where it is shown that the quantum version is quantitatively more secure.

description: We examine the pacing strategies of elite swimmers of the 200m freestyle from six long courses World Championships and three editions of the Olympic Games. The entries, partials, and total race times of the finalist swimmers were analyzed. The results showed that the 1st lap is the one with the most significant difference, both for males (0.0008) and females (<0.0001), justified by the push-off against a solid (block). In addition, athletes perform their strategies assuming a negative correlation in the 1st half of the race and a positive correlation in the 2nd half. Also, the winner´s time difference percentage was below compared with the median of total race time, where the Transition a (difference between 1st to 2nd and 3rd places, and the difference of 3rd place to other athletes) is faster in the 2nd half of the race by +3.23% for men and +2.50% for women. It is concluded that the 1st lap presents better reciprocity to the final time. The winners are faster than the median in the 2nd half of the race. Still, the % Time becomes an option, related to the possibility of using the pacing of different athletes, as an option for coaches and athletes.

description: Medical ethicists have questioned the use of no-treatment controlled studies (placebo and sham procedure) of new therapies when safe and effective standard therapies are available for use as an active or “equivalence” control. Currently, ethical and conduct principles for biomedical research specifically prohibit projects that do not make or deny the “best-proven diagnosis and therapeutic treatment” to any participant in a clinical trial, including individuals who consent to randomisation into a control group. Studies of psychophysiological therapies are often criticised for not having a placebo or sham treatment control group. In sports science research, particularly in the case of clinical exercise, the use of control groups also raises ethical questions. This article briefly reviews the problem and discusses the ethical standards governing human research derived from the Nuremberg Code and the Declaration of Helsinki.

Distinct molecular profiles are characterized for major immune cell types including T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, monocytes and dendritic cells. Our analyses revealed that the similarities and differences among immune cells shared by multiple species.Additionally, we dissected the conserved and divergent connectomes and regulomes among vertebrates. Overall, we reported, the first cross-species single cell atlas for PBMCs, followed by comprehensive analysis, which could advance our understanding on the cellular taxonomy and fundamental functions of PBMCs with important implications in evolutionary biology, developmental biology and immune system disorders.

description: Drag crisis has been described as a drop in the drag coefficient (Cd). This procedure was lately assessed in able-bodied cyclists in time trial position by computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the phenomenon of the drag crisis by computer fluid dynamics in transradial and transtibial amputee cyclists in the upright position. A male elite-level cyclist was recruited for this research. The subject was scanned (3D geometry with a 3D Scan) with his competition bicycle, helmet, suit, and shoes. Consequently, transradial and transtibial 3D models were created editing the able-bodied 3D model. To perform the CFD analyses, a domain measuring 7 x 2.5 x 2.5 m (length, width and height, respectively) was created around each bicycle-cyclist model. The domains were meshed with more than 42 million elements. Numerical simulations by CFD were performed in fluent numerical for speeds between 1 m/s and 13 m/s, with increments of 1 m/s. The total Cd decreased with speed. It ranged from 0.84 to 0.55 in the able-bodied, 0.86 to 0.64 in the transradial and 0.90 to 0.61 in the transtibial. The drag crisis phenomenon was observed between 1m/s and 4m/s in all models.

description: We study the universal scaling limit of random partitions obeying the Schur measure. Extending our previous analysis [arXiv:2012.06424], we obtain the higher-order Pearcey kernel describing the multi-critical behavior in the cusp scaling limit. We explore the gap probability associated with the higher Pearcey kernel, and derive the coupled nonlinear differential equation and the asymptotic behavior in the large gap limit.

description: The aim of this study was to evaluate maximum voluntary contraction through surface electromyography in stabilizer shoulder muscles, as well as the clinical evaluation of shoulder injury in the pre, post, and detraining stages of specific training in child swimmers. Twelve competitive swimmers volunteered for this study. Anthropometric measurements, clinical examination, electromyography (with Delsys® data acquisition system), and pain intensity levels were performed. Clinical examination and EMG data were compared using repeated-measures ANOVA with Bonferroni correction pre, post, and after detraining. The intervention program lasted for 12 weeks. The pain group presented higher pain intensity values compared to the post-intervention program. Most of the tests presented lower values at the detraining compared to the baseline. After the intervention, pain levels significantly decreased in five tests. Muscle strengthening work is highly recommended because it improves the swimmer's shoulder performance, reducing injuries and decreasing pain intensity after 12 weeks of intervention.

description: One of the major impacts of climatic changes is due to destroying of forest. Destroying of forest takes place in many ways but the majority of the forest is destroyed due to wild forest fires. In this paper we have presented a path planning algorithm for extinguishing fires which uses Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) for detecting fires. Since most of the works on forest fires are based on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and a collection of work has been done on coverage, message transmission, deployment of nodes, battery power depletion of sensor nodes in WSNs we focused our work in path planning approach of the Actor to move to the target area where the fire has occurred and extinguish it. An incremental approach is presented in order to determine the successive moves of the Actor to extinguish fire in an environment with and without obstacles. This is done by comparing the moves determined with target location readings obtained using sensors until the Actor reaches the target area to extinguish fires.

description: Electrochemical strains are a ubiquitous feature of solid state ionic devices ranging from ion batteries and fuel cells to electroresistive and memristive memories. Recently, we proposed a scanning probe microscopy (SPM) based approach, referred as electrochemical strain microscopy (ESM), for probing local ionic flows and electrochemical reactions in solids based on bias-strain coupling. In ESM, the sharp SPM tip concentrates the electric field in a small (10-50 nm) region of material, inducing interfacial electrochemical processes and ionic flows. The resultant electrochemical strains are determined from dynamic surface displacement and provide information on local electrochemical functionality. Here, we analyze image formation mechanism in ESM for a special case of mixed electronic-ionic conductor with blocking tip electrode, and determine frequency dependence of response, role of diffusion and electromigration effects, and resolution and detection limits.

The postdevelopmental state : the reconfiguration of political space and the politics of economic reform in South Korea
Creators: name: Doucette, Jamie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In this dissertation I examine the restructuring of the South Korean developmental state from a strategic-relational perspective sensitive to how the intersection between democratization and neoliberalization has influenced economic reform. In contrast to conventional approaches to developmental states that stress the autonomy of state from society and limit the contingency of social forces seen as affecting developmental strategies, I argue that it is within the reconfigured political space created by democratization, and shaped by the demands of the reform bloc of liberal and progressive forces that effected the democratic transition, that developmental state reform must be situated. This historic bloc has constituted a key support base for reform-oriented governments of Kim Dae Jung and Roh Moo Hyun and supplied these governments with key advisors and politicians. However, under these governments, neoliberal policies have expanded, undermining the hegemony of reform governments and leading to debates within the reform bloc over the character of Korean democratization, and the assertion that substantive, egalitarian demands have been neglected. I examine this assertion through an exploration of relations of coordination and conflict within the integral state (of political society and civil society) around efforts to reform the financial policies of the developmental state, to create institutions of social cooperation, to regulate foreign migrant labour, and to promote economic engagement with North Korea. In each of these case studies I outline areas where demands for economic and social justice have been subordinated to demands for national reunification and neoliberal reform and point to some of the wider implications this process holds for the reform movements and for the politics of democratization. To conclude, I survey some of the more recent transformations of the reform bloc under the conservative government of Lee Myung Bak and point to areas of continued tension that reveal that many of the dilemmas of developmental state reform described in this dissertation continue to persist. These dilemmas constitute a strategic political space that democratic reform projects will have to continue to work through if a substantive alternative to the predicaments of the postdevelopmental state is to be found.

description: A strong brand has been identified as a long-term success factor. Still, there is a gap in the perception of different types of fans about the brand equity dimensions of football teams and how their dimensions influence loyalty in the Brazilian context. The purpose of the present study was to analyse the perception of brand equity among members and non-members of football teams and its influence on behavioural intentions. Data were collected from 420 fans of a State Football Championship from Brazil through an online survey and analysed using multigroup structural equation modelling. In that context, the brand mark was not an association considered by the fans, and the analysis indicated a better perception of the brand equity dimensions by the members, and the analysis with the complete sample indicated the relevance of the model (R² = 77%). Specifically, internalisation, social interaction, and management dimensions significantly impacted the behavioural intentions of football fans. The study provides an understanding of the dimensions of brand equity in a context not previously studied and the different perceptions of these dimensions through multigroup analysis. Further, it informs marketers of the brand equity elements that must be taken into account in an attempt to leverage team behavioural intentions.
