Celebargiolestes

description: Celebargiolestes sp. Material studied Sulawesi Tenggara 2♀, Tenggara, Palau Kabaena, 1 km S of Tangkeno, 550m, 08−09-xi-1989, R. de Jong & J. Huisman leg. The two available females from this locality have a face resembling that of C. orri: labrum and clypeus black, genae and mandibles dark brown to black grading to yellow-brown in the upper posterior corner, front of head tawny-brown with the centre of the frons with mottled dark brown to black in one specimen but largely tawny brown in the other specimen, top of head including sockets of antennae black. This locality is isolated from the main range of C. orri and it is not unlikely that these specimens belong to a yet undescribed species. More material, including males, is needed to confirm this. Discussion Rationale for the taxonomic decisions The species of Celebargiolestes are all closely related and show no clear differences except for the pattern on the head, the shape of the head of the genital ligula and the shape of the inferior appendages. Based on these, four groups can easily be recognized. They are here described as species. Within three of these there is variability in the shape of the inferior appendages between localities sometimes coinciding with small variability in coloration. The differences in the shape of the inferior appendages are slight, difficult to judge without direct comparison of material and the use of this character for reliable identification is limited. Material from other locations might show that there is gradual change between regions. For this reason I refrained from giving names and regard them as regional differences within species. It is remarkable that C. cinctus is found in two disjunct areas; however the populations in these disjunct regions share the same pattern on the face and have the same shape of the head of the genital ligula. Celebargiolestes askewi sp. nov. has the same pattern on the face and shape of the head of the genital ligula as C. orri sp. nov. but differs from the latter by the clearly shorter lower appendages. It could be that C. askewi represents just one of the more clearly differentiated regional forms of C. orri which would make the latter paraphyletic.

description: We establish the vanishing for non-trivial unitary representations of the bounded cohomology of SL_d up to the rank.

We also prove that the real bounded cohomology of any lattice is invariant in the same range.

The QSO variability-luminosity-redshift relation

description: The relationship between variability, luminosity and redshift in the South Galactic Pole QSO sample is examined in an effort to disentangle the effects of luminosity and redshift in the amplitude of the optical variations. The anticorrelation between variability and luminosity found by other authors is confirmed. Our analysis also supports claims that variability increases with redshift, most likely due to an anticorrelation between variability and wavelength. In particular, our parametric fits show that the QSO variability-wavelength relation is consistent with that observed in low-luminosity nearby active galactic nuclei. The results are used to constrain Poissonian-type models. We find that if QSO variability results from a random superposition of pulses, then the individual events must have B-band energies between $\sim 10^{50}$ and a few times $10^{51}$ erg and time-scales of $\sim 2$ yr. Generalized Poissonian models in which the pulse energy and lifetime scale with luminosity are also discussed.

Return probability after a quench from a domain wall initial state in the spin-1/2 XXZ chain

description: We study the return probability and its imaginary ($τ$) time continuation after a quench from a domain wall initial state in the XXZ spin chain, focusing mainly on the region with anisotropy $|Δ|< 1$. We establish exact Fredholm determinant formulas for those, by exploiting a connection to the six vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions. In imaginary time, we find the expected scaling for a partition function of a statistical mechanical model of area proportional to $τ^2$, which reflects the fact that the model exhibits the limit shape phenomenon. In real time, we observe that in the region $|Δ|<1$ the decay for large times $t$ is nowhere continuous as a function of anisotropy: it is either gaussian at root of unity or exponential otherwise. As an aside, we also determine that the front moves as $x_{\rm f}(t)=t\sqrt{1-Δ^2}$, by analytic continuation of known arctic curves in the six vertex model. Exactly at $|Δ|=1$, we find the return probability decays as $e^{-ζ(3/2) \sqrt{t/π}}t^{1/2}O(1)$. It is argued that this result provides an upper bound on spin transport. In particular, it suggests that transport should be diffusive at the isotropic point for this quench.

description: The correspondence between classical spin models and quantum states has attracted much attention in recent years. However, it remains an open problem as to which specific spin model a given (well-known) quantum state maps to. In this Letter, we provide such an explicit correspondence for an important class of quantum states where a duality relation is proved between classical spin models and quantum Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) states. In particular, we employ graph-theoretic methods to prove that the partition function of a classical spin model on a hypergraph $H$ is equal to the inner product of a product state with a quantum CSS state on a dual hypergraph $\tilde{H}$. We next use this dual correspondence to prove that the critical behavior of the classical system corresponds to a relative stability of the corresponding CSS state to bit-flip (and phase-flip) noise, thus called critical stability. We finally conjecture that such critical stability is related to the topological order in quantum CSS states, thus providing a possible practical characterization of such states.

description: Alcohol use was associated with elevated COVID-19 risk in the general population. People with HIV (PWH) have high prevalences of alcohol use. To evaluate the effect of alcohol use on COVID-19 risks among PWH, we estimated the risk of COVID-19 diagnosis and COVID-19-related hospitalization among PWH in routine care at 8 HIV primary care centers that contributed data to the Centers for AIDS Research Network of Integrated Clinical Systems (CNICS) cohort according to their alcohol use just prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CNICS data repository includes demographic characteristics, clinical diagnoses, and laboratory test results from electronic medical records and other sources. Alcohol use, substance use, and mental health symptoms were self-reported on tablet-based standardized surveys. Alcohol use was categorized according to standard, sex-specific Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test-Consumption instrument cut-offs. We followed 5,496 PWH (79% male, 48% Black race, median age = 53 years) from March 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Relative to PWH with no baseline alcohol use, the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of COVID-19 diagnosis was 1.09 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.78, 1.51) for lower-risk drinking and 1.19 (95%CI: 0.81, 1.73) for unhealthy drinking. The aHR of COVID-19-related hospitalization was 0.82 (95%CI: 0.33, 1.99) for lower-risk drinking and 1.25 (95%CI: 0.50, 3.09) for unhealthy drinking. Results were not modified by recent cocaine or non-prescribed opioid use, depressive symptoms, or diagnoses of alcohol use disorder. The study suggested a slightly increased, but not statistically significant risk of COVID-19 diagnosis and hospitalization associated with unhealthy alcohol use.

description: It is argued that the mass spectrum of a meson nonet is linear, consistent with the standard Gell-Mann--Okubo mass formula and leading to an extra Gell-Mann--Okubo mass relation for the masses of the isoscalar states. This relation is shown to hold with an accuracy of up to $\sim $3\% for all well-established nonets. It also suggests a new $q\bar{q}$ assignment for the scalar meson nonet.

Variable screening based on Gaussian Centered L-moments

name: Marron, J.S.
name: An, Hyowon
name: Oja, Hannu
Publisher: name: Elsevier
Year: 2023

description: An important challenge in big data is identification of important variables. For this purpose, methods of discovering variables with non-standard univariate marginal distributions are proposed. The conventional moments based statistics can be well-adopted, but their sensitivity to outliers can lead to selection based on a few outliers rather than distributional shape such as bimodality. To address this type of non-robustness, the L-moments are considered. Using these in practice, however, has a limitation since they do not take zero values at the Gaussian distributions to which the shape of a marginal distribution is most naturally compared. As a remedy, Gaussian Centered L-moments are proposed, which share advantages of the L-moments, but have zeros at the Gaussian distributions. The strength of Gaussian Centered L-moments over other conventional moments is shown in theoretical and practical aspects such as their performances in screening important genes in cancer genetics data.

M-estimation for common epidemiological measures: introduction and applied examples

name: Cole, Stephen R
Publisher: name: Oxford University Press (OUP)

description: M-estimation is a statistical procedure that is particularly advantageous for some comon epidemiological analyses, including approaches to estimate an adjusted marginal risk contrast (i.e. inverse probability weighting and g-computation) and data fusion. In such settings, maximum likelihood variance estimates are not consistent. Thus, epidemiologists often resort to bootstrap to estimate the variance. In contrast, M-estimation allows for consistent variance estimates in these settings without requiring the computational complexity of the bootstrap. In this paper, we introduce M-estimation and provide four illustrative examples of implementation along with software code in multiple languages. M-estimation is a flexible and computationally efficient estimation procedure that is a powerful addition to the epidemiologist's toolbox.

What are the most common categories of risk from artificial intelligence which are relevant to organizations?
Synopsis
To assess how important actors are responding to AI risks, we first need to understand the primary categories of risks. To do this, we will conduct a rapid review of published and unpublished AI risk frameworks. We will use the risk categories from these frameworks to create a framework of the main categories of risks from artificial intelligence relevant to organizations.

description: Assume that the compact Riemannian spin manifold $(M^n,g)$ admits a $G$-structure with characteristic connection $\nabla$ and parallel characteristic torsion ($\nabla T=0$), and consider the Dirac operator $D^{1/3}$ corresponding to the torsion $T/3$. This operator plays an eminent role in the investigation of such manifolds and includes as special cases Kostant's ``cubic Dirac operator'' and the Dolbeault operator. In this article, we describe a general method of computation for lower bounds of the eigenvalues of $D^{1/3}$ by a clever deformation of the spinorial connection. In order to get explicit bounds, each geometric structure needs to be investigated separately; we do this in full generality in dimension 4 and for Sasaki manifolds in dimension 5.

Two-dimensional quantum droplets in dipolar Bose gases

Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)

description: We calculate analytically the quantum and thermal fluctuations corrections of a dilute quasi-two-dimensional Bose-condensed dipolar gas. We show that these fluctuations may change their character from repulsion to attraction in the density-temperature plane owing to the striking momentum dependence of the dipole-dipole interactions. The dipolar instability is halted by such unconventional beyond mean field corrections leading to the formation of a droplet phase. The equilibrium features and coherence properties exhibited by such droplets are deeply discussed. At finite temperature, we find that the equilibrium density crucially depends on the temperature and on the confinement strength and thus, a stable droplet can exist only at ultralow temperature due to the strong thermal fluctuations.

description: We consider two mathematical problems that are connected and occur in the layer-wise production process of a workpiece using Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing. As the first task, we consider the automatic construction of a honeycomb structure, given the boundary of a shape of interest. In doing this we employ Lloyd’s algorithm in two different realizations. For computing the incorporated Voronoi tesselation we consider the use of a Delaunay triangulation or alternatively, the eikonal equation. We compare and modify these approaches with the aim of combining their respective advantages. Then in the second task, to find an optimal tool path guaranteeing minimal production time and high quality of the workpiece, a mixed-integer linear programming problem is derived. The model takes thermal conduction and radiation during the process into account and aims to minimize temperature gradients inside the material. Its solvability for standard mixed-integer solvers is demonstrated on several test-instances. The results are compared with manufactured workpieces.
description: Wir betrachten zwei verbundene mathematische Probleme, welche bei der schichtweisen Herstellung eines Werkstücks mittels des Lichtbogendraht-Auftragschweißen, einem additiven Fertigungsverfahren, auftreten. Als erste Aufgabe betrachten wir die automatische Konstruktion einer Wabenstruktur unter Berücksichtigung des Randes einer gewünschten Form. Dabei setzen wir Lloyds Algorithmus in zwei verschiedenen Varianten ein. Zur Berechnung der einbezogenen Voronoi-Parkettierung betrachten wir die Verwendung einer Delaunay-Triangulation und alternativ dazu der Eikonal-Gleichung. Wir vergleichen und modifizieren diese Ansätze mit dem Ziel, ihre jeweiligen Vorteile zu kombinieren. In der zweiten Aufgabe wird dann, um einen optimalen Weg für das Werkzeug zu finden, der eine minimale Produktionszeit zusammen mit einer hohen Qualität des Werkstücks garantiert, ein gemischt-ganzzahliges lineares Programm (MILP) hergeleitet. Das Modell berücksichtigt Wärmeleitung und Strahlung während des Prozesses und zielt darauf ab, Temperaturgradienten innerhalb des Materials zu minimieren. Die Lösbarkeit für Standard-MILP-Löser wird in mehreren Testfällen demonstriert. Die Ergebnisse werden mit real gefertigten Werkstücken verglichen.

description: Observational identification of black holes as members of binary systems requires the knowledge of the upper limit on the gravitational mass of a neutron star. We use modern equations of state for neutron star matter, fitted to experimental nucleon-nucleon scattering data and the properties of light nuclei, to calculate, within the framework of Rhoades & Ruffini (1974), the minimum upper limit on a neutron star mass. Regarding the equation of state as valid up to twice nuclear matter saturation density, rho_{nm}, we obtain a secure upper bound on the neutron star mass equal to 2.9 solar masses. We also find that in order to reach the lowest possible upper bound of 2.2 solar masses, we need understand the physical properties of neutron matter up to a density of about 4 times rho_{nm}.

description: Recent studies have shown remarkable success in image-to-image translation for two domains. However, existing approaches have limited scalability and robustness in handling more than two domains, since different models should be built independently for every pair of image domains. To address this limitation, we propose StarGAN, a novel and scalable approach that can perform image-to-image translations for multiple domains using only a single model. Such a unified model architecture of StarGAN allows simultaneous training of multiple datasets with different domains within a single network. This leads to StarGAN's superior quality of translated images compared to existing models as well as the novel capability of flexibly translating an input image to any desired target domain. We empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on a facial attribute transfer and a facial expression synthesis tasks.

description: This thesis presents the development of Silicon-based nanomaterials for use as the functional component in solar water splitting cells. Silicon satisfies the materials sustainability requirements being an earth abundant, inexpensive and the most widely-studied semiconductor. This research investigates the design and stability of cathode ensembles, by incorporating functional diamond stabilising coatings and hydrogen catalysts onto planar and nanostructured silicon interfaces. Various experimental techniques were implemented to better understand the optical and morphological attributes of the interface and especially test its performance for solar to hydrogen conversion. This thesis also investigates the durability of these materials for prospective solar hydrogen devices.
Consistent Scalar and Tensor Perturbation Power Spectra in Single Fluid Matter Bounce with Dark Energy Era

description: We investigate cosmological scenarios containing one canonical scalar field with an exponential potential in the context of bouncing models, where the bounce happens due to quantum cosmological effects. The only possible bouncing solutions in this scenario (discarding an infinitely fine tuned exception) must have one and only one dark energy phase, either occurring in the contracting era or in the expanding era. Hence,these bounce solutions are necessarily asymmetric. We calculate the spectral indexes and amplitudes of scalar and tensor perturbations numerically, considering the whole history of the model, including the bounce phase itself, without making any approximation or using any matching condition on the perturbations. As the background model is necessarily dust dominated in the far past, the usual adiabatic vacuum initial conditions can be easily imposed in this era. Hence, this is a cosmological model where the presence of dark energy behavior in the Universe does not turn problematic the usual vacuum initial conditions prescription for cosmological perturbation in bouncing models. Scalar and tensor perturbations end up being almost scale invariant, as expected. The background parameters can be adjusted, without fine tunings, to yield the observed amplitude for scalar perturbations, and also for the ratio between tensor and scalar amplitudes, $r = T/S \lesssim 0.1$. The amplification of scalar perturbations over tensor perturbations takes place only around the bounce, due to quantum effects, and it would not occur if General Relativity has remained valid throughout this phase. Hence, this is a bouncing model where a single field induces not only an expanding background dark energy phase, but also produces all observed features of cosmological perturbations of quantum mechanical origin at linear order.

A Note on the External-Field Method in QCD Sum Rules

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The external-field method has been used extensively in the QCD sum-rule approach to explore various hadron static properties. In the traditional formalism of this method, the transitions from the ground state hadron to excited states are not exponentially suppressed relative to the ground state term and thus contaminate the ground state hadron property to be extracted. In this paper, we suggest a modified formalism, in which the transition terms are exponentially suppressed relative to the ground state term. As such, the pole plus continuum spectral model, traditionally invoked in QCD sum-rule approach, can be adopted. Thus, this modified formalism has potential to improve the predictability and reliability of external-field sum-rule calculations, which is illustrated in an explicit example.

description: The rise of capabilities expressed by large language models has been quickly followed by the integration of the same complex systems into application level logic. Algorithms, programs, systems, and companies are built around structured prompting to black box models where the majority of the design and implementation lies in capturing and quantifying the `agent mode'. The standard way to shape a closed language model is to prime it for a specific task with a tailored prompt, often initially handwritten by a human. The textual prompts co-evolve with the codebase, taking shape over the course of project life as artifacts which must be reviewed and maintained, just as the traditional code files might be. Unlike traditional code, we find that prompts do not receive effective static testing and linting to prevent runtime issues. In this work, we present a novel dataset called PromptSet, with more than 61,000 unique developer prompts used in open source Python programs. We perform analysis on this dataset and introduce the notion of a static linter for prompts. Released with this publication is a HuggingFace dataset and a Github repository to recreate collection and processing efforts, both under the name \texttt{pisterlabs/promptset}.

description: In this paper, we deal with the $f(R,Q)$ gravity whose action depends, besides of the scalar curvature $R$, on the higher-derivative invariant $Q=R_{μν}R^{μν}$. In order to compare this theory with the usual General Relativity (GR), we verify the consistency of Gödel-type solutions within the $f(R,Q)$ gravity and discuss the related causality issues. Explicitly, we show that in the $f(R,Q)$ gravity there are new Gödel-type completely causal solutions having no analogue in the general relativity. In particular, a remarkable Gödel-type solution corresponding to the conformally flat space and maximally symmetric for physically well-motivated matter sources, with no necessity of cosmological constant, has been considered. We demonstrate that, in contrast to GR framework, $f(R,Q)$ gravity supports new vacuum solutions with the requirement for the cosmological constant to be non-zero. Finally, causal solutions are obtained for a particular choice $f(R,Q)=R+αR^2+ βQ$.

description: In this work we find that not only the Heisenberg-like uncertainty products and the Rényi-entropy-based uncertainty sum have the same first-order values for all the quantum states of the $D$-dimensional hydrogenic and oscillator-like systems, respectively, in the pseudoclassical ($D \to \infty$) limit but a similar phenomenon also happens for both the Fisher-information-based uncertainty product and the Shannon-entropy-based uncertainty sum, as well as for the Crámer-Rao and Fisher-Shannon complexities. Moreover, we show that the LMC (López-Ruiz-Mancini-Calvet) and LMC-Rényi complexity measures capture the hydrogenic-harmonic difference in the high dimensional limit already at first order.

description: When a fiber optic cable is physically disturbed, the light passing through it experiences a small phase shift.  The magnitude of this phase shift is proportional to that of the disturbance, allowing us to reconstruct the original vibration signal based on the light we observe.  By employing detectors at both ends of the cable, we can moreover determine precisely where the disturbance occurred.  Here we describe advances in the techniques of localizing these disturbances, ultimately with an eye for earthquake detection in the middle of the oceans, where there is a deep poverty of seismological data.  

In particular, we present a novel time delay estimation technique which enables fast, precise results even in systems with common noise.  Traditional correlation techniques fail in such settings, with the noise difficult to distinguish from the signal.  We instead appeal to a geometric relationship between the difference of two signals with small time delay and their derivative, enabling us to outperform existing techniques by at least an order of magnitude.  We also gain the ability to localize multiple simultaneous signals, which is not possible with correlation-based techniques even in principle.  These advances open up long-distance fiber optic seismometry as a viable technology.
Studies in Polynuclear Iron(II) Spin-Crossover Complexes

Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: subject: Inorganic Chemistry

description: This thesis describes investigations of a range of iron compounds called spin-crossover materials. Spin-crossover materials are materials that contain molecules that undergo spin switching, a fundamental property of matter that depends on the spin of electrons and gives rise to changes in colour and magnetism and molecular structure. Of particular importance is a memory effect in these materials that has great potential in developing future devices for chemical sensors, colour signal displays and information storage. A key part of the present work is the design and synthesis of organic molecules that can bind to two or more spin switching iron centres to produce new spin-crossover materials and then investigate the materials unique spin switching mechanism.

description: Instantons on the Taub-NUT space are related to `bow solutions' via a generalization of the ADHM-Nahm transform. Both are related to complex geometry, either via the twistor transform or via the Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence. We explore various aspects of this complex geometry, exhibiting equivalences. For both the instanton and the bow solution we produce two monads encoding each of them respectively. Identifying these monads we establish the one-to-one correspondence between the instanton and the bow solution.

description: I was born in 1951 in London to parents of different faiths. My mother was of Jewish descent, her parents having emigrated to England in 1911 from Germany, while my father (John Allen Benstead) was the only child of staunchly Christian parents. My parents married after the end of WW2, once they had completed their university studies. They were both undergraduates at King's College London, my father reading English Literature and my mother languages. As was the practice during WW2, as students, they were moved out of London to continue their studies and my father (who was born in 1919 and therefore of conscription age) declared himself a conscientious objector. We believe, though we have no way of confirming this, that his grounds for refusing to go to war were based on his religious beliefs. The reason this confuses us (my sisters and myself) is that, in later life, our father became a Humanist and would argue vehemently with anyone who promoted any religious faith or following.My parents were relocated to Bristol, where my father, as a conscientious objector, was put on fire watch. Considering that Bristol was, at that time, a major port and was heavily bombed by the Luftwaffe between June 1940 and May 1944, being on fire watch (presumably, on the roofs of buildings) would have been a perilous occupation!Sadly, as is the case for so many of us in life, I failed to have any detailed conversations with my father about his/their time in Bristol (he died in 1998) and so have only scant information to offer. I have, however, discovered that some 60,000 British men (and many British women) declared themselves conscientious objectors in WW2 and were not roundly vilified and declared cowards (or shot!), as happened in WW1.My father's father was invalided out of WW1 and subsequently became a barber and ladies hairdresser and (as family stories have it) was barber to army officers - possibly working for a while at Sandhurst. But - that's a whole other story!

description: Spectral lines from a source orbiting around a compact object are studied. Time variations of observed frequency and count rate due to motion of the source and gravitational lensing are considered. Gravitational field of the central object is described by the Kerr metric. It is shown that: (i) simultaneous temporal and frequency resolution enables us to restrict parameters of the model (inclination angle, position of the source, angular momentum of the black hole); (ii) techniques of image restoration, familiar from other fields of astronomy, can be applied to study inner regions of active galactic nuclei. This contribution is relevant for extremely variable X-ray sources with high parameter of efficiency, such as Seyfert 1 galaxy PHL 1092 observed by ROSAT.

description: Approaches to address measurement error frequently rely on validation data to estimate measurement error parameters (e.g., sensitivity and specificity). Acquisition of validation data can be costly, thus secondary use of existing data for validation is attractive. To use these external validation data, however, we may need to address systematic differences between these data and the main study sample. Here, we derive estimators of the risk and the risk difference that leverage external validation data to account for outcome misclassification. If misclassification is differential with respect to covariates that themselves are differentially distributed in the validation and study samples, the misclassification parameters are not immediately transportable. We introduce two ways to account for such covariates: (1) standardize by these covariates or (2) iteratively model the outcome. If conditioning on a covariate for transporting the misclassification parameters induces bias of the causal effect (e.g., M-bias), the former but not the latter approach is biased. We provide proof of identification, describe estimation using parametric models, and assess performance in simulations. We also illustrate implementation to estimate the risk of preterm birth and the effect of maternal HIV infection on preterm birth. Measurement error should not be ignored and it can be addressed using external validation data via transportability methods.
MatchingTools: a Python library for symbolic effective field theory calculations

description: MatchingTools is a Python library for doing symbolic calculations in effective field theory. It provides the tools to construct general models by defining their field content and their interaction Lagrangian. Once a model is given, the heavy particles can be integrated out at the tree level to obtain an effective Lagrangian in which only the light particles appear. After integration, some of the terms of the resulting Lagrangian might not be independent. MatchingTools contains functions for transforming these terms to rewrite them in terms of any chosen set of operators.
