Publisher: name: International Journal of Conflict and Violence (IJCV)
Year: 2011

description: Latin America has long been a violence-prone continent. No other region of the world knows higher homicide rates nor has such a variety of violence. Political violence, guerilla movements and civil wars, bloody revolutions, brutal dictatorships, domestic violence, criminal violence, and youth violence are all well known throughout history. This article gives an overview of the historical development of violence in Latin America and the Caribbean, examining its specificities and changes. The focus is on the recent explosion of violence and crime since the 1980s. As a literature review, it summarizes the main findings of academic research on violence in the different Latin American countries, thus providing additional insights into the major topics and research interests of Latin American and international institutions. After a short introduction and some remarks on the historical development of violence, the main part of the article deals with the recent rise of violence in the region. A special focus is on youth violence. At the end, the causes, costs, and consequences of violence for the Latin American societies are addressed.

description: We discuss an extended Teleparallel gravity models comprising functions of scalar invariants constructed by torsion, torsion Gauss-Bonnet and boundary terms. We adopt the Noether Symmetry Approach to select the functional forms, the first integrals and, eventually, the exact solutions of the dynamics in the context of flat Friedman-Robertson-Walker cosmology. Standard perfect fluid matter, minimally coupled to geometry, is considered. Several physically consistent models are derived with related exact solutions.

MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS OF A QUEUE NETWORK HAVING TWO SUBSYSTEMS WITH PARALLEL BISERIAL QUEUE CHANNEL WITH CERTAINTY
Creators: name: Vineet
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: By studying this queue network with two subsystems and a parallel biserial queue channel, we aim to enhance our understanding of complex queueing systems and their performance characteristics. The insights gained from this analysis can inform decision-making processes, resource allocation strategies, and system design improvements in real-world applications where similar queue networks exist. The objective of this study is to conduct a mathematical analysis of the queue network to gain insights into its performance measures. We aim to analyze various key parameters, such as the utilization of subsystems, the queue lengths in each subsystem, and the queue length in the common queue channel. Additionally, we will evaluate the overall system utilization to assess the efficiency of the entire queue network. In the subsequent sections of this study, we will delve into the mathematical modeling, analysis techniques, and performance evaluation of the queue network. Through this investigation, we expect to contribute to the existing body of knowledge in queueing theory and provide valuable insights for optimizing the performance of queue networks with multiple subsystems and parallel biserial queue channels.

description: We develop techniques to construct general discrete Wilson lines in four-dimensional N=1 Type IIB orientifolds, their T-dual realization corresponds to branes positioned at the orbifold fixed points. The explicit order two and three Wilson lines along with their tadpole consistency conditions are given for D=4 N=1 Z_6 Type IIB orientifold. The systematic search for all models with general order three Wilson lines leads to a small class of inequivalent models. There are only two inequivalent classes of a potentially phenomenologically interesting model that has a possible SU(3)_{color} x SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x U(1)_{B-L} gauge structure, arising from a set of branes located at the Z_6 orbifold fixed point. We calculate the spectrum and Yukawa couplings for this model. On the other hand, introduction of anti-branes allows for models with three families and realistic gauge group assignment, arising from branes located at the Z_3 orbifold fixed points.

We show that it is possible to construct a vertex which not only ensures that the fermion propagator is multiplicatively renormalizable, obeys the appropriate Ward-Takahashi identity, reproduces perturbation theory for weak couplings and guarantees that the critical coupling at which the mass is dynamically generated is gauge independent but also makes sure that the value for the anomalous dimension for the mass function is strictly 1, as Holdom and Mahanta have proposed.

description: O setor da construção civil no Brasil enfrenta um desafio significativo com o rápido crescimento urbano e o aumento do déficit habitacional. Nesse cenário, a busca por soluções sustentáveis é crucial. Os tijolos de solo-cimento, também conhecidos como tijolos ecológicos, surgem como uma alternativa promissora devido ao seu baixo impacto ambiental. Eles oferecem benefícios como conforto térmico e acústico e têm um custo reduzido, pois não requerem queima, evitando as emissões de gases de efeito estufa associadas à produção de tijolos convencionais. Este estudo visa analisar a relação entre a tensão de prensagem aplicada na fabricação de tijolos de solo-cimento e sua resistência à compressão. A pesquisa foi conduzida no Laboratório de Materiais de Construção Civil da UEMG - Unidade Passos, utilizando solo da região e Cimento Portland (CP II-F-32), conforme as normas da NBR 8491 (ABNT, 2012). A metodologia incluiu a caracterização geotécnica do solo, a definição da mistura na proporção 1:8 (cimento: solo) e a aplicação de diferentes tensões de prensagem (≅ 1,0, 3,0 e 4,5 MPa). Os resultados indicaram que a resistência à compressão aumenta proporcionalmente com a tensão de prensagem, ressaltando a importância de otimizar os métodos de prensagem e dosagem para garantir a eficácia e durabilidade dos tijolos de solo-cimento.

description: This paper reports on a new method of encapsulating BZ solution droplets in a powder coating of either polyethylene (PE) or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), to produce BZ liquid marbles (LMs). The BZ LMs have solid--liquid interfaces in contrast to the previously reported BZ encapsulation systems used to study pattern formations and wave transfers, such as BZ emulsions and BZ vesicles. All these systems are important to study as they can be seen as analogues for information transfer in excitable systems in nature. Due to the powder coating of the LMs, LMs do not wet the underlying substrate, making the LMs mobile, enabling them to be easily arranged in arrays. The preparation of complex LMs, containing an acidic oscillating solution, proves the resilience of LMs and their application in transporting a wide range of chemical cargoes and in playing a mediating role in chemical reactions. PTFE-coated LMs were harder to prepare and not as robust as PE-coated LMs, therefore oscillation studies of BZ LMs positioned in arrays only focused on PE-coated LMs. Sporadic transfer of excitation waves was observed between LMs placed in close proximity to each other in ordered and disordered arrays, suggesting the transfer of liquid species possibly arises from contact between imperfectly coated areas at the LM--LM interface or capillary action, where solution is actively transported to the marble surface through the coating. Propagation pathways of the excitation waves in both the disordered and ordered arrays of BZ LMs are reported. These results lay the foundations for future studies on information transmission and processing arrays of BZ LMs, in addition to observing BZ wave propagation in a LM and the effect of other physical stimuli such as heat, light and chemical environments on the dynamics of excitation in arrays of BZ Lms.

description: Natural resources can contribute to economic growth, employment, and fiscal revenues. But many resource-rich and resource-dependent countries are, in fact, body of literature is devoted to the issue of intrastate resource conflicts. These studies can be broadly divided into two groups: studies which focus on resource characterized by disappointing growth rates, high inequality and wide-spread impoverishment, bad governance, and an increased risk of civil violence. A vast scarcity and conflict, and studies that analyse the relationship between resource abundance and conflict. While studying resources and intrastate conflict is anything but new, we show that the main findings from the literature, which are often conflicting, are difficult to compare due to a lack of adequate, and conflict, we discuss the central terminology and approaches to measuring independent and dependent variables (resources and conflict). general definitions and measurements of scarcity, abundance, and conflict. After overviews of research on resource scarcity and conflict and on resource abundance.

description: We collect three observations on the homology for Smale spaces defined by Putnam. The definition of such homology groups involves four complexes. It is shown here that a simple convergence theorem for spectral sequences can be used to prove that all complexes yield the same homology. Furthermore, we introduce a simplicial framework by which the various complexes can be understood as suitable "symmetric" Moore complexes associated to the simplicial structure. The last section discusses projective resolutions in the context of dynamical systems. It is shown that the projective cover of a Smale space is realized by the system of shift spaces and factor maps onto it.

description: We use an optimized hopping parameter expansion (linear δexpansion) for the free energy to study the phase transitions at finite temperature and finite charge density in a global U(1) scalar Higgs sector in the continuum and on the lattice at large couplings. We are able to plot out phase diagrams in lattice parameter space and find that the standard second-order phase transition with temperature at zero chemical potential becomes first-order as the chemical potential increases.

description: We analyze the large-order behaviour in perturbation theory of classes of diagrams with an arbitrary number of chains (i.e. photon lines, dressed by vacuum polarization insertions). We derive explicit formulae for the leading and subleading divergence as $n\to\infty$, and a complete result for the vacuum polarization at the next-to-leading order in $1/N_f$. In general, diagrams with more chains yield stronger divergence. We define an analogue of the familiar diagrammatic $R$-operation, which extracts ultraviolet renormalon counterterms as insertions of higher-dimension operators. We then use renormalization group equations to sum the leading $(\ln n/N_f)^k$-corrections to all orders in $1/N_f$ and find the asymptotic behaviour in $n$ up to a constant that must be calculated explicitly order by order in $1/N_f$.

description: We studied the effect of the external magnetic field and photon flux on timing jitter in photon detection by straight superconducting NbN nanowires. At two wavelengths 800 and 1560 nm, statistical distribution in the appearance time of the photon count exhibits Gaussian shape at small times and exponential tail at large times. The characteristic exponential time is larger for photons with smaller energy and increases with external magnetic field while variations in the Gaussian part of the distribution are less pronounced. Increasing photon flux drives the nanowire from quantum detection mode to the bolometric mode that averages out fluctuations of the total number of nonequilibrium electrons created by the photon and drastically reduces jitter. The difference between Gaussian parts of distributions for these two modes provides the measure for the electron-number fluctuations. Corresponding standard deviation increases with the photon energy. We show that the two-dimensional hot-spot detection model explains qualitatively the effect of magnetic field.
How Does Militant Violence Diffuse in Regions? Regional Conflict Systems in International Relations and Peace and Conflict Studies
Creators: name: Ansorg, Nadine

description: Regional conflict systems are characterised by their complexity of actors, causes, structural conditions and dynamics. Such complexity poses difficulties to those looking to undertake scientific analysis of the regional dynamics of violence. It is still quite unclear how militant violence diffuses in regions and under which conditions a regional conflict system can emerge. This review of existing approaches to regional conflict dynamics in international studies and peace and conflict studies focuses on how the regional conflict dynamics and the causal mechanisms behind the development of regional conflict systems are dealt with, considering process dynamics in space and time as well as in the interactions between possible causal factors. The primary gaps in existing research are identified and possible new research directions sketched out.Regional conflict systems are characterised by their complexity of actors, causes, structural conditions and dynamics. Such complexity, however, poses difficulties to those looking to undertake scientific analysis of these processes. In the present paper existing approaches to regional conflict dynamics in international studies and peace and conflict studies are reviewed. Of particular interest is the question how these approaches dealt with regional violence in areas with limited or no statehood as this is one of the striking conditions for the emergence and diffusion of regional conflict systems. Starting from this question, the main research gaps that exist in the current literature on regional conflicts will be detected. Furthermore, new research directions will be pointed out.

description: Standard purification interlaces Hermitian and Riemannian metrics on the space of density operators with metrics and connections on the purifying Hilbert-Schmidt space. We discuss connections and metrics which are well adopted to purification, and present a selected set of relations between them. A connection, as well as a metric on state space, can be obtained from a metric on the purification space. We include a condition, with which this correspondence becomes one-to-one. Our methods are borrowed from elementary *-representation and fibre space theory. We lift, as an example, solutions of a von Neumann equation, write down holonomy invariants for cyclic ones, and ``add noise'' to a curve of pure states.

description: Cosmic shear is a primary cosmological probe for several present and upcoming surveys investigating dark matter and dark energy, such as Euclid or WFIRST. The probe requires an extremely accurate measurement of the shapes of millions of galaxies based on imaging data. Crucially, the shear measurement must address and compensate for a range of interwoven nuisance effects related to the instrument optics and detector, noise, unknown galaxy morphologies, colors, blending of sources, and selection effects. This paper explores the use of supervised machine learning (ML) as a tool to solve this inverse problem. We present a simple architecture that learns to regress shear point estimates and weights via shallow artificial neural networks. The networks are trained on simulations of the forward observing process, and take combinations of moments of the galaxy images as inputs. A challenging peculiarity of this ML application is the combination of the noisiness of the input features and the requirements on the accuracy of the inverse regression. To address this issue, the proposed training algorithm minimizes bias over multiple realizations of individual source galaxies, reducing the sensitivity to properties of the overall sample of source galaxies. Importantly, an observational selection function of these source galaxies can be straightforwardly taken into account via the weights. We first introduce key aspects of our approach using toy-model simulations, and then demonstrate its potential on images mimicking Euclid data. Finally, we analyze images from the GREAT3 challenge, obtaining competitively low shear biases despite the use of a simple training set. We conclude that the further development of ML approaches is of high interest to meet the stringent requirements on the shear measurement in current and future surveys. A demonstration implementation of our technique is publicly available.

description: A detailed analysis is performed of transverse momentum spectra of several identified hadrons in high energy collisions within the framework of the statistical model of hadronisation. The effect of the decay chain following hadron generation is accurately taken into account. The considered centre-of-mass energies range from ~ 10 to 30 GeV in hadronic collisions (pi+ p, pp and Kp) and from ~ 15 to 45 GeV in e+e- collisions. A clear consistency is found between the temperature parameter extracted from the present analysis and that obtained from fits to average hadron multiplicities in the same collision systems. This finding indicates that in the hadronisation, the production of different particle species and their momentum spectra are two closely related phenomenons governed by one parameter.

description: Two studies of children aged between five and ten years old investigate the impact of affirmative action programmes on the ethnic identity of black and indigenous children in Brazil. The participants in the first study were children supported by affirmative action programmes: black Quilombola (n= 33) and indigenous (n= 32). Study two was carried out on black children (n= 77) not supported by affirmative action programmes. In the first study the children used nine different categories of skin colour to define themselves. The majority of the indigenous children defined themselves as “morena”, while black Quilombolas defined themselves as “preto” (dark). In the second study the children used six different colours, and dark colours were rarely used. Although the children in both studies liked belonging to their group, most, particularly the Quilombola children, would like to be whiter.

$R$-Parity Violation in Flavor Changing Neutral Current Processes and Top Quark Decays

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

description: We show that supersymmetric $R$-parity breaking ($\not R_p$) interactions always result in Flavor Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) processes. Within a single coupling scheme, these processes can be avoided in either the charge $+2/3$ or the charge $-1/3$ quark sector, but not both. These processes are used to place constraints on \Rp couplings. The constraints on the first and the second generations are better than those existing in the literature. The \Rp interactions may result in new top quark decays. Some of these violate electron-muon universality or produce a surplus of $b$ quark events in $t\bar{t}$ decays. Results from the CDF experiment are used to bound these \Rp couplings.

description: Our goal in this paper is to find a characterization of $n$-dimensional bilinear Hardy inequalities \begin{align*} \bigg\| \,\int_{B(0,\cdot)} f \cdot \int_{B(0,\cdot)} g \,\bigg\|_{q,u,(0,\infty)} & \leq C \, \|f\|_{p_1,v_1,{\mathbb R}^n} \, \|g\|_{p_2,v_2,{\mathbb R}^n}, \quad f,\,g \in {\mathfrak M}^+ ({\mathbb R}^n), \end{align*} and \begin{align*} \bigg\| \,\int_{\,^{^{\mathsf{c}}}\! B(0,\cdot)} f \cdot \int_{\,^{^{\mathsf{c}}}\! B(0,\cdot)} g \,\bigg\|_{q,u,(0,\infty)} &\leq C \, \|f\|_{p_1,v_1,{\mathbb R}^n} \, \|g\|_{p_2,v_2,{\mathbb R}^n}, \quad f,\,g \in {\mathfrak M}^+ ({\mathbb R}^n), \end{align*} when $0 < q \le \infty$, $1 \le p_1,\,p_2 \le \infty$ and $u$ and $v_1,\,v_2$ are weight functions on $(0,\infty)$ and ${\mathbb R}^n$, respectively. Since the solution of the first inequality can be obtained from the characterization of the second one by usual change of variables we concentrate our attention on characterization of the latter. The characterization of this inequality is easily obtained for the range of parameters when $p_1 \le q$ using the characterizations of multidimensional weighted Hardy-type inequalites while in the case when $q < p_1$ the problem is reduced to the solution of multidimensional weighted iterated Hardy-type inequality. To achieve the goal, we characterize the validity of multidimensional weighted iterated Hardy-type inequality $$ \left\|\left\|\int_{\,^{^{\mathsf{c}}}\! B(0,\cdot)}h(z)dz\right\|_{p,u,(0,t)}\right\|_{q,μ,(0,\infty)}\leq c \|h\|_{θ,v,(0,\infty)},~ h \in \mathfrak{M}^+({\mathbb R}^n) $$ where $0 < p,\,q < +\infty$, $1 \leq θ\le \infty$, $u\in {\mathcal W}(0,\infty)$, $v \in {\mathcal W}({\mathbb R}^n)$ and $μ$ is a non-negative Borel measure on $(0,\infty)$.

Perceptions of Everyday Interpersonal Discrimination among Young Men of Turkish Background in Cologne
Creators: name: Hartmann, Henrik
Publisher: name: International Journal of Conflict and Violence (IJCV)
Year: 2011

description: This small-scale, qualitative study examines how five young male second-generation Turkish immigrants perceive racial discrimination by ethnic Germans and to what extent this perception influences their collective identities. The typology of interactional patterns the interviewees describe as racial discrimination has four elements: a perception of distrust, a distancing gaze, denial of belonging and rule enforcement by members of the German majority. The interviewees, particularly those who are highly educated and socially mobile, identify with a common Ausländer (foreigner) identity in response to experiences of discrimination. This identity is regarded a shared identity marker by immigrants of different backgrounds. It appears as a positive and affirmative identity of difference, which creates a unique type of social capital.

description: Slow-slip phenomena, including afterslips and silent earthquakes, are studied using a one-dimensional Burridge--Knopoff model that obeys the rate-and-state dependent friction law. By varying only a few model parameters, this simple model allows reproducing a variety of seismic slips within a single framework, including main shocks, precursory nucleation processes, afterslips, and silent earthquakes.
Good Quantum Convolutional Error Correction Codes And Their Decoding Algorithm Exist

description: Quantum convolutional code was introduced recently as an alternative way to protect vital quantum information. To complete the analysis of quantum convolutional code, I report a way to decode certain quantum convolutional codes based on the classical Viterbi decoding algorithm. This decoding algorithm is optimal for a memoryless channel. I also report three simple criteria to test if decoding errors in a quantum convolutional code will terminate after a finite number of decoding steps whenever the Hilbert space dimension of each quantum register is a prime power. Finally, I show that certain quantum convolutional codes are in fact stabilizer codes. And hence, these quantum stabilizer convolutional codes have fault-tolerant implementations.

description: Black-box quantum state preparation is an important subroutine in many quantum algorithms. The standard approach requires the quantum computer to do arithmetic, which is a key contributor to the complexity. Here we present a new algorithm that avoids arithmetic. We thereby reduce the number of gates by a factor of 286-374 over the best prior work for realistic precision; the improvement factor increases with the precision. As quantum state preparation is a crucial subroutine in many approaches to simulating physics on a quantum computer, our new method brings useful quantum simulation closer to reality.

description: Equation of state of baryon rich quark matter is studied within the SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with flavour mixing interaction. Possible bound states (strangelets) and chiral phase transitions in this matter are investigated at various values of strangeness fraction S/3B. The model predictions are very sensitive to the ratio of vector (Gv) and scalar (Gs) coupling constants. At Gv/Gs=0.5 and zero temperature the maximum binding energy (about 15 MeV per baryon) takes place when strangeness fraction is about 0.4. Such strangelets are negatively charged and have typical life times of the order of 100 ns. Calculations are carried out also at finite temperatures. They show that bound states exist up to temperatures of about 15 MeV. The model predicts a first order chiral phase transition at finite baryon densities. The parameters of this phase transition are calculated as function of strangeness fraction.
