description: In homotopy type theory (HoTT), all constructions are necessarily stable under homotopy equivalence. This has shortcomings: for example, it is believed that it is impossible to define a type of semi-simplicial types. More generally, it is difficult and often impossible to handle towers of coherences. To address this, we propose a 2-level theory which features both strict and weak equality. This can essentially be represented as two type theories: an "outer" one, containing a strict equality type former, and an "inner" one, which is some version of HoTT. Our type theory is inspired by Voevosky's suggestion of a homotopy type system (HTS) which currently refers to a range of ideas. A core insight of our proposal is that we no not need any form of equality reflection in order to achieve what HTS was suggested for. Instead, having unique identity proofs in the outer type theory is sufficient, and it also has the meta-theoretical advantage of not breaking decidability of type checking. The inner theory can be an easily justifiable extensions of HoTT, allowing the construction of "infinite structures" which are considered impossible in plain HoTT. Alternatively, we can set the inner theory to be exactly the current standard formulation of HoTT, in which case our system can be thought of as a type-theoretic framework for working with "schematic" definitions in HoTT. As demonstrations, we define semi-simplicial types and formalise constructions of Reedy fibrant diagrams.

description: We perform a phase space analysis of a generalized modified gravity theory with nonminimally coupling between geometry and matter. We apply the dynamical system approach to this generalized model and find that in the cosmological context, different choices of Lagrangian density will apparently result in different phases of the Universe. By carefully choosing the variables, we prove that there is an attractor solution to describe the late time accelerating universe when the modified gravity is chosen in a simple power-law form of the curvature scalar. We further examine the temperature evolution based on the thermodynamic understanding of the model. Confronting the model with supernova type Ia data sets, we find that the nonminimally coupled theory of gravity is a viable model to describe the late time Universe acceleration.

Subjects: Sports science and exercise

description: Digital technology is growing in popularity in the enacted teaching and learning process. However, there is ongoing debate regarding the evidence of its impact on teaching and learning in physical education. With increasing use in education, digitally competent teachers are essential to the success of its integration. The primary aim of this study was to explore perceived teacher competency levels in applying digital technology to the physical education classroom. Teachers perceived significantly low competency levels in relation to digital technology in physical education. This was a result of both personal and school hindrances which teachers identified as impeding the integration of digital technology in their physical education classes. Drawing on a holistic view of the dichotomy of pedagogy and technology, we suggest that this relationship is more complex than the one stated in most digital competence frameworks, therefore a narrow understanding of teacher digital competency in physical education.

description: Removing exactly one photon from an arbitrary input pulse is an elementary operation in quantum optics and enables applications in quantum information processing and quantum simulation. Here we demonstrate a deterministic single-photon absorber based on the saturation of an optically thick free-space medium by a single photon due to Rydberg blockade. Single-photon subtraction adds a new component to the Rydberg quantum optics toolbox, which already contains photonic logic building-blocks such as single-photon sources, switches, transistors, and conditional $π$-phase shifts. Our approach is scalable to multiple cascaded absorbers, essential for preparation of non-classical light states for quantum information and metrology applications, and, in combination with the single-photon transistor, high-fidelity number-resolved photon detection.
Gross and histomorphology of Internal Parathyroid Gland of Surti Goat (Capra hircus)

Publisher: name: The Science world a Monthly e magazine
Year: 2024

description: The parathyroid glands play an essential role in raises of serum calcium concentrations by multiple actions on the bone, kidney and gut. The position of external parathyroid gland is always cranial to the thyroid gland and may be in the mandibular salivary gland in sheep (Krause, 1953). In sheep, the external parathyroid gland is located as in cattle but in the goat, may be near the atlas (Ellenberger-Baum, 1943).  Sometimes the external parathyroid gland was embedded inside the remnants of thymic tissues in goat. The internal parathyroid gland may be intimately associated to thyroid tissue mostly buried in the cranial part itself. In goat, the parathyroid glands have two embryological origins. The external parathyroid and the internal parathyroid originate from III and IV pharyngeal pouches respectively (Nehal et al., 2018). The present study reveals about internal parathyroid glands topographic position and microscopic observations in adult Surti goat.

description: This paper discusses the empirical evidence of Tsallis statistical functions in the personal income distribution of Brazil. Yearly samples from 1978 to 2014 were linearized by the q-logarithm and straight lines were fitted to the entire range of the income data in all samples, producing a two-parameters-only single function representation of the whole distribution in every year. The results showed that the time evolution of the parameters is periodic and plotting one in terms of the other reveals a cycle mostly clockwise. It was also found that the empirical data oscillate periodically around the fitted straight lines with the amplitude growing as the income values increase. Since the entire income data range can be fitted by a single function, this raises questions on previous results claiming that the income distribution is constituted by a well defined two-classes-base income structure, since such a division in two very distinct income classes might not be an intrinsic property of societies, but a consequence of an a priori fitting-choice procedure that may leave aside possibly important income dynamics at the intermediate levels.

description: Bulk fluctuations of conserved charges measured by event-by-event analysis in relativistic heavy ion collisions are observables which are believed to carry significant amount of information on the hot medium created by the collisions. Active studies have been done recently experimentally, theoretically, and on the lattice. In particular, non-Gaussianity of the fluctuations has acquired much attention recently. In this review, we give a pedagogical introduction to these issues, and survey recent developments in this field of research. Starting from the definition of cumulants, basic concepts in fluctuation physics, such as thermal fluctuations in statistical mechanics and time evolution of fluctuations in diffusive systems, are described. Phenomena which are expected to occur in finite temperature and/or density QCD matter and their measurement by event-by-event analyses are also elucidated.

description: The Parameterized Algorithms and Computational Experiments challenge (PACE) 2022 was devoted to engineer algorithms solving the NP-hard Directed Feedback Vertex Set (DFVS) problem. The DFVS problem is to find a minimum subset $X ⊆ V$ in a given directed graph $G = (V,E)$ such that, when all vertices of $X$ and their adjacent edges are deleted from $G$, the remainder is acyclic. Overall, the challenge had 90 participants from 26 teams, 12 countries, and 3 continents that submitted their implementations to this year’s competition. In this report, we briefly describe the setup of the challenge, the selection of benchmark instances, as well as the ranking of the participating teams. We also briefly outline the approaches used in the submitted solvers.

description: We study electrical and optical conductivities of hole gas in $p$-doped bulk III-V semiconductors described by the Luttinger Hamiltonian. We provide exact analytical expressions of the Drude conductivity, inverse relaxation time for various impurity potentials, Drude weight and optical conductivity in terms of the Luttinger parameters $γ_1 $ and $γ_2$. The back scattering is completely suppressed as a result of the helicity conservation of the heavy and light hole states. We find that the inverse relaxation time of heavy holes is much less than that of the light holes for Coulomb-type and Gaussian-type impurity potentials and vice-versa for short-range impurity potentials. The Drude conductivity increases non-linearly with the increase of the hole density. The exponent of the density dependence of the conductivity is obtained in Thomas-Fermi limit. The Drude weight varies linearly with the density even in presence of the spin-orbit coupling. The finite-frequency optical conductivity goes as $\sqrtω$ and its amplitude strongly depends on the Luttinger parameters. The Luttinger parameters can be extracted from the optical conductivity measurement.

Our results are verified numerically by means of wavepacket evolution, including an analysis of Zitterbewegung on the lattice. The necessary tools for microwave realizations, such as complex hopping amplitudes and chiral effects, are simulated.

description: Wide-angle x-ray scattering (WAXS) is emerging as a powerful tool for increasing the resolution of solution structure measurements of biomolecules. Compared to its better known complement, small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), WAXS targets higher scattering angles and can enhance structural studies of molecules by accessing finer details of solution structures. Although the extension from SAXS to WAXS is easy to implement experimentally, the computational tools required to fully harness the power of WAXS are still under development. Currently, WAXS is employed to study structural changes and ligand binding in proteins; however the methods are not as fully developed for nucleic acids. Here, we show how WAXS can qualitatively characterize nucleic acid structures as well as the small but significant structural changes driven by the addition of multivalent ions. We show the potential of WAXS to test all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and to provide insight in understanding how the trivalent ion cobalt(III) hexammine (CoHex) affects the structure of RNA and DNA helices. We find that MD simulations capture the RNA structural change that occurs due to addition of CoHex.

description: The Shannon based conditional entropy that underlies five-dimensional Einstein-Hilbert gravity coupled to a dilaton field is investigated in the context of dynamical holographic AdS/QCD models. Considering the UV and IR dominance limits of such AdS/QCD models, the conditional entropy is shown to shed some light onto the meson classification schemes, which corroborate with the existence of light-flavour mesons of lower spins in Nature. Our analysis is supported by a correspondence between statistical mechanics and information entropy which establishes the physical grounds to the Shannon information entropy, also in the context of statistical mechanics, and provides some specificities for accurately extending the entropic discussion to continuous modes of physical systems. From entropic informational grounds, the conditional entropy allows one to identify the lower experimental/phenomenological occurrence of higher spin mesons in Nature. Moreover, it introduces a quantitative theoretical apparatus for studying the instability of high spin light-flavour mesons.

description: A spacetime domain can be progressively meshed by tent shaped objects. Numerical methods for solving hyperbolic systems using such tent meshes to advance in time have been proposed previously. Such schemes have the ability to advance in time by different amounts at different spatial locations. This paper explores a technique by which standard discretizations, including explicit time stepping, can be used within tent-shaped spacetime domains. The technique transforms the equations within a spacetime tent to a domain where space and time are separable. After detailing techniques based on this mapping, several examples including the acoustic wave equation and the Euler system are considered.

description: This article investigates a novel physician scheduling problem. Different types of tasks can be performed by physicians with certain qualifications. Tasks have different properties depending on their types, lengths, and starting times. Physicians performing tasks can yield different values of benefit and cost according to their qualifications and the task property. The objective is to maximise the sum of profit (i.e., benefit minus cost). For solving the studied problem, three layer-progressive processes are proposed and corresponding solution strategies are developed for them respectively. A Variable Neighbourhood Search is applied in the first-layer process to assign a certain qualification of physicians to each task property. The problem is then decomposed into scheduling physicians of single qualification as the second-layer process. On this layer, a heuristic incorporating a Dynamic Programming algorithm is developed to generate a task property list for each qualification of physicians to guarantee the optimum of the solutions. The Dynamic Programming algorithm is applied on the third-layer process to get the task property list for a physician. In the computational experiments, the proposed approach is compared with three meta-heuristic algorithms and Gurobi. The results show that the proposed approach outperforms other compared algorithms.

description: A reaction plane dependent event mixing technique is developed to remove the collective
 background from two particle correlation measurements in heavy ion collisions. The
 method eliminates the need for any external flow measurements and is well suited for
 studying the path length dependence of particle production in quark-gluon plasma. Central
 to mid-central, as well as in vs out-of-plane, per neutral pion trigger integrated away-side
 hadron yield comparisons are made. Results suggest a significant path length dependent
 partonic energy loss in the medium. A tagging method is also introduced to measure the
 direct photon yield for various collision criteria. Direct photon – hadron yields are
 measured. A comparison of central to mid-central yields reveals a significant suppression of
 the away-side hadrons in higher multiplicity events. The reaction plane dependence of the
 associated away-side yield is explored.
Constraining higher-order parameters for primordial non-Gaussianities from power spectra and bispectra of imaging survey

description: We investigate the statistical power of higher-order statistics and cross-correlation statistics to constrain the primordial non-Gaussianity from the imaging surveys. In particular, we consider the local-type primordial non- Gaussianity and discuss how well one can tightly constrain the higher-order non-Gaussian parameters ($g_{\rm NL}$ and $τ_{\rm NL}$) as well as the leading order parameter $f_{\rm NL}$ from the halo/galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing measurements. Making use of a strong scale-dependent behavior in the galaxy/halo clustering, Fisher matrix analysis reveals that the bispectra can break the degeneracy between non-Gaussian parameters ($f_{\rm NL}$, $g_{\rm NL}$ and $τ_{\rm NL}$) and this will give simultaneous constraints on those three parameters. The combination of cross-correlation statistics further improves the constraints by factor of 2. As a result, upcoming imaging surveys like the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope have the potential to improve the constraints on the primordial non-Gaussianity much tighter than those obtained from the CMB measurement by Planck, giving us an opportunity to test the single-sourced consistency relation, $τ_{\rm NL} \ge (36/25) f_{\rm NL}^2$.

description: We study one-dimensional topological superconductivity in the presence of time-reversal symmetry. This phase is characterized by having a bulk gap, while supporting a Kramers' pair of zero-energy Majorana bound states at each of its ends. We present a general simple model which is driven into this topological phase in the presence of repulsive electron-electron interactions. We further propose two experimental setups and show that they realize this model at low energies. The first setup is a narrow two-dimensional topological insulator partially covered by a conventional s-wave superconductor, and the second is a semiconductor wire in proximity to an s-wave superconductor. These systems can therefore be used to realize and probe the time-reversal invariant topological superconducting phase. The effect of interactions is studied using both a mean-field approach and a renormalization group analysis.

The sweetness and bitterness of émigré cinema : Dušan Makavejev’s Sweet movie and The Coca-Cola kid

description: Dušan Makavejev is considered to be perhaps the most significant film director from the former Yugoslavia. Makavejev’s career had three distinct phases: Yugoslavia; emigre cinema; and his return to Yugoslavia. The bloody dissolution of Yugoslavia has unfortunately obfuscated his contributions to film as a medium and his legacy has been marginalized and ignored in English-language scholarship. Compounding this is the fact that discussions of his career generally center on his earlier films which were made in Yugoslavia. This thesis focuses on two of his three films from his emigre period: Sweet Movie (1974) and The Coca-Cola Kid (1985). Before this analysis, a literature review of major sources in English is done as well as brief discussion of these earlier films. His emigre period is discussed in terms of his career trajectory; geopolitical realities; and aesthetics of the films. The last aspect is drawn out using Dimitris Eleftheriotis’s Cinematic Journeys: Film and Movement to conceptualize these films as road movies. Despite the road movies framework, the analysis of the films is largely from a cultural studies perspective. These two films stand at stylistic extremes, yet have underlying similarities and preoccupations related to wider themes present throughout all of Makavejev’s career. Sweet Movie and The Coca-Cola Kid are stridently anti-authoritarian and anti-capitalist. They are also concerned with youth; sugar, sweetness, and consumption; and social commentary on careers and animals. These films are concerned with global systems of analysis and thinking; the movies are challenging authoritarian impulses and are calls for greater freedom and individual agency. While Sweet Movie has been discussed extensively, The Coca-Cola Kid in particular is undertheorized. The Coca-Cola Kid is resituated within his career and juxtaposed to the aesthetically richer Sweet Movie. The thesis ends with a suggestion for further analysis on the second, emigre phase of Makavejev’s career as well as a suggestion for analysis on the third phase of his career

description: The planned launch of the James Webb Space Telescope in 2018 will herald a new era of exoplanet spectroscopy. JWST will be the first telescope sensitive enough to potentially characterize terrestrial planets from their transmission spectra. In this work, we explore the possibility that terrestrial planets with Venus-type and Earth-type atmospheres could be distinguished from each other using spectra obtained by JWST. If we find a terrestrial planet close to the liquid water habitable zone of an M5 star within a distance of 10 parsecs, it would be possible to detect atmospheric ozone if present in large enough quantities, which would enable an oxygen-rich atmosphere to be identified. However, the cloudiness of a Venus-type atmosphere would inhibit our ability to draw firm conclusions about the atmospheric composition, making any result ambiguous. Observing small, temperate planets with JWST requires significant investment of resources, with single targets requiring of order 100 transits to achieve sufficient signal to noise. The possibility of detecting a crucial feature such as the ozone signature would need to be carefully weighed against the likelihood of clouds obscuring gas absorption in the spectrum.

On the polarization of fermion in an intermediate state

description: We show that calculation of a final fermion polarization (for a pure initial state) is equivalent to the problem of looking for complete polarization axis of bispinor. This gives the method for calculation of polarization applicable both for final and intermediate state fermions. We suggest to use fermion propagator (bare or dressed) in form of spectral representation, which gives the orthogonal off-shell energy projectors. This representation leads to covariant separation of particle and antiparticle contributions and gives a natural definition for polarization of intermediate state fermion. The most evident application is related with consistent description of $t$-quark polarization.

Coherent nonlinear optical response of graphene in the quantum Hall regime

description: We study nonlinear optical response of graphene in the quantum Hall regime to an intense laser pulse. In particular, we consider harmonic generation process. We demonstrate that the generalized magneto-optical conductivity of graphene on the harmonics of a strong pump laser radiation has a characteristic Hall plateaus feature. The plateaus heights depend on the laser intensity and broadening of Landau levels, so that are not quantized exactly. This nonlinear effect remains robust against the significant broadening of Landau levels. We predict realization of an experiment through the observation of the third harmonic signal and nonlinear Faraday effect, which are within the experimental feasibility.
