description: In this work, we explore wormhole solutions in $f(R,T)$ theory of gravity, where $R$ is the scalar curvature and $T$ is the trace of stress-energy tensor of matter. To investigate this, we consider static spherically symmetric geometry with matter contents as anisotropic, isotropic and barotropic fluids in three separate cases. By taking into account Starobinsky $f(R)$ model , we analyze the behavior of energy conditions for these different kind of fluids. It is shown that the wormhole solutions can be constructed without exotic matter in few regions of spacetime. We also give the graphical illustration of obtained results and discuss the equilibrium picture for anisotropic case only. It is concluded that the wormhole solutions with anisotropic matter are realistic and stable in this gravity.

Latinx Parents’ Funds of Knowledge: Participation throughout the IEP Process

Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Despite ample evidence that parent participation is beneficial to the education of individuals with disabilities, language, culture, and class can be barriers to parent participation in the IEP process. Parent participation is especially vital to the inclusion of historically marginalized communities, where access to social and cultural capital might inhibit participation. While numerous studies have documented barriers to parent participation, very few studies have explored parents’ funds of knowledge as a way of authentically including their knowledge and voice in the IEP process. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to gather the life histories, schooling experiences, and family and cultural knowledge of seven Latinx mothers in order to understand their lived experiences participating in the IEP process. Parents’ struggles to navigate explicit and implicit challenges in school and family systems reveal intentional choices, along with robust commitments to access social and cultural capital. Thematic analyses revealed that mothers used diverse approaches to generate meaning and resist unfair treatment of children with disabilities, often manifesting in complex counter-narratives on concepts of disability, culture, and child rearing. These findings have implications for practitioners and researchers. For practitioners, gathering parents’ funds of knowledge, reframing the IEP process as a civic activity, and emulating pedagogical relations between mother and child can be catalysts for meaningful participation. This study also adds to a small but substantive collection of extant empirical studies that shows the value of exploring lived experience as a means of adding depth to understandings of parent participation in the IEP process.

description: The purpose of this paper is to show that the mathematical treatment of three dimensional rotations can be simplified, and its geometrical understanding improved, by using the Rodrigues' vector representation. We present a novel geometrical interpretation of the Rodrigues' vector. Based on this interpretation and simple geometrical considerations, we derive Euler Rodrigues' formula, Cayley's rotation formula, and the composition law for finite rotations. The level of this discussion should be suitable for undergraduate physics or engineering courses where rotations are discussed.

description: Le Fiamme di Giovan Battista Giraldi Cinthio non sono un libro di rime costruito a freddo e in un breve arco di tempo, ma un canzoniere lucido e meditato che prende forma lentamente nell’orma del petrarchismo bembiano e arriva tardi alle stampe a metà Cinquecento. Il saggio prende in considerazione le testimonianze manoscritte e a stampa dell’esercizio lirico del Giraldi per delineare la storia del testo delle Fiamme come premessa a un’edizione critica e commentata. ------ First findings as for the «Fiamme» edition. The Giovan Battista Giraldi Cinthio’s Fiamme is not an extemporary book of poetry constructed in a short time, but a lucid and thoughtful “canzoniere” (organic collection of poetry) that slowly takes shape in the footsteps of Bembian Petrarchism and arrives late at print in the mid-16th century. The essay considers manuscripts and printed sources of Giraldi’s lyric writing to outline the history of the text of the Fiamme as a premise for a critical and annotated edition.

description: Although massless Dirac fermions in graphene constitute a centrosymmetric medium for in-plane excitations, their second-order nonlinear optical response is nonzero if the effects of spatial dispersion are taken into account. Here we present a rigorous quantum-mechanical theory of the second-order nonlinear response of graphene beyond the electric dipole approximation, which includes both intraband and interband transitions. The resulting nonlinear susceptibility tensor satisfies all symmetry and permutation properties, and can be applied to all three-wave mixing processes. We obtain useful analytic expressions in the limit of a degenerate electron distribution, which reveal quite strong second-order nonlinearity at long wavelengths, Fermi-edge resonances, and unusual polarization properties.

description: Coherent sources of attosecond extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation present many challenges if their full potential is to be realized. While many applications benefit from the broadband nature of these sources, it is also desirable to produce narrow band XUV pulses, or to study autoionizing resonances in a manner that is free of the broad ionization background that accompanies above-threshold XUV excitation. Here we demonstrate a method for controlling the coherent XUV free induction decay that results from using attosecond pulses to excite a gas, yielding a fully functional modulator for XUV wavelengths. We use an infrared (IR) control pulse to manipulate both the spatial and spectral phase of the XUV emission, sending the light in a direction of our choosing at a time of our choosing. This allows us to tailor the light using opto-optical modulation, similar to devices available in the IR and visible wavelength regions.
Deadlock Detector and Solver (DDS)

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Deadlock is found to be one of the most complex problems that can negatively impact the reliability of programs. If deadlocks are not detected and resolved, this can cause permanent thread blockage. The existing deadlock detectors are typically based on timeout and rollback of computations, which results in considerable delays and waste of computing resources. This research presents Deadlock Detector and Solver (DDS), a method and toolset for detecting and resolving deadlocks in Java programs at run-time. DDS efficiently detects deadlocks caused by hold-and wait cycles on Java locks, does not require manual code annotations, and only imposes a modest performance overhead on the running Java program. Upon detecting a deadlock, DDS employs a preemptive approach to break up the deadlock cycle. We assess the effectiveness of DDS on benchmarks of deadlocking and non-deadlocking programs. To preserve semantic correctness of the monitored program, it is crucial that one of the threads in a deadlock be amenable to lock preemption. When this is not the case, we resort to an approach based on software transactional memories—a nonblocking methodology to ensure that any write operation is made atomically. Our empirical findings show that DDS can detect and resolve deadlocks in Java programs without substantial runtime overhead. We conclude that the combination of lock preemption and software transactional memories is an effective method for handling deadlocks at runtime. In addition, applications of the DDS to other lock-based languages, such as C++/pthreads, will be briefly discussed.
Effect of Time Restricted Feeding on Body Weight Metabolic Disease Risk Factors in Adults with Obesity

description: This study investigated the effects of time restricted feeding (TRF) on body weight, metabolic disease risk factors, sleep, and safety in adults with obesity. TRF is a form of intermittent fasting in which individuals eat all their food within a certain window of time each day, and water fast for the remaining hours of the day. Obese subjects (n = 23) participated in an 8-h time restricted feeding intervention (ad libitum feeding between 10:00 to 18:00 h, water fasting between 18:00 to 10:00 h) for 12 weeks. Results from this study show that 12 weeks of 8-h TRF decreases body weight by ~3%. Subjects were adherent to the prescribed eating window on ~6 days per week, and this level of adherence remained constant throughout the 12-week trial. Our findings also indicate that reducing the daily eating window to 8-h/d decreases caloric intake by ~300 kcal/d, without intentional calorie counting. TRF produced significant reductions in systolic blood pressure, however, other metabolic disease risk parameters (plasma lipids and glucoregulatory factors) remained unchanged. Sleep quality, timing, duration and insomnia severity remained unchanged after 12 weeks. Our results also suggest that TRF is a safe diet therapy that does not negatively affect eating disorder symptoms, eating behaviors, or measures of overall health such as resting metabolic rate and complete blood count. These preliminary data offer promise for the use of TRF as a safe weight-loss technique in adults with obesity, but longer-term, larger-scale randomized controlled trials will be required before solid conclusions can be reached.

description: Extracting the "correct" location information from text data, i.e., determining the place of event, has long been a goal for automated text processing. To approximate human-like coding schema, we introduce a supervised machine learning algorithm that classifies each location word to be either correct or incorrect. We use news articles collected from around the world (Integrated Crisis Early Warning System [ICEWS] data and Open Event Data Alliance [OEDA] data) to test our algorithm that consists of two stages. In the feature selection stage, we extract contextual information from texts, namely, the N-gram patterns for location words, the frequency of mention, and the context of the sentences containing location words. In the classification stage, we use three classifiers to estimate the model parameters in the training set and then to predict whether a location word in the test set news articles is the place of the event. The validation results show that our algorithm improves the accuracy rate of the current geolocation methods of dictionary approach by as much as 25%.

La prima parte, di Gabriele Fattorini, tocca la questione di alcuni ritratti del pittore e dell’identità dei personaggi effigiati in alcuni di essi (da Renata di Francia a un misterioso uomo di lettere, che talvolta si è voluto identificare in Giraldi), mentre la seconda, di Paolo Ervas, ripercorre la vicenda artistica di Girolamo da Carpi, con particolare attenzione all’evoluzione del suo linguaggio, guardando di volta in volta a Dosso Dossi, Raffaello e Parmigianino. ------ Girolamo da Capri: in relation to a book The article is inspired by Alessandra Pattanaro’s recent book on the painter Girolamo da Carpi , focusing on the relationships that existed between this important master of the Padania area and Giovanni Battista Giraldi Cinthio. At first Gabriele Fattorini deals with the matter of some of the painter’s portraits and the identity of the characters portrayed in some of them (from Renée of France to a mysterious literary man, identified sometimes as Giraldi). Then Paolo Ervas retraces the artistic career of Girolamo da Carpi, with particular attention to the evolution of his language, marked from time to time by the experiences of Dosso Dossi, Raphael and Parmigianino.

description: For a separable C*-algebra A, We define an exact C*-category called the Paschke Category of A, and show that its topological K-theory groups are equal to topological K-homology groups of the C*-algebra A. Then we use the Dolbeault complex and ideas from the classical methods in Kasparov K-theory to construct an acyclic chain complex in this category, which in turn, induces a Riemann-Roch transformation from algebraic K-theory spectra of a complex manifold X, to its topological K-homology spectra. We examine the question of whether this map commutes with push-forward with respect to a proper map of complex manifolds, and how we can extend it to complex spaces.

Effects of Temperature and Time since Deposition on Recovery of DNA from Touch Samples
Creators: name: Rupal D Sharma

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: DNA can now be recovered from the residue left behind on touching an object. The source of this DNA is relatively unknown, therefore there is little knowledge about its dependence on environmental factors, if there is any. Since forensic DNA analyses often involves dealing with trace amounts of samples, how these samples are stored and how they are affected over time is a critical issue. This thesis focuses on extracting DNA from “true fingerprint” i.e. touched samples and from “mock fingerprint” i.e. in which a known quantity of DNA is deposited as a fingerprint. Real-time PCR was carried out on the samples to quantitate the amount of DNA recovered after the samples were exposed to different temperatures and time points. Agarose gels were run and stained with 1X SYBR Gold to visualize any degradation in DNA recovered from true fingerprints due to temperature and time since deposition. Statistical analysis conducted using ANOVA revealed that temperature affected DNA recovery only after 3 weeks of storage and even at 4°C, amount of DNA recovered from samples significantly declined after 1 month. The use of “mock fingerprints” led to generation of standard curves and the degradation pattern of samples was studied, validating future use of “mock fingerprints” in touch DNA research.

description: In order to realize fast OCT-systems with adjustable line rate, we investigate averaging of image data from an FDML based MHz-OCT-system. The line rate can be reduced in software and traded in for increased system sensitivity and image quality. We compare coherent and incoherent averaging to effectively scale down the system speed of a 3.2 MHz FDML OCT system to around 100 kHz in postprocessing. We demonstrate that coherent averaging is possible with MHz systems without special interferometer designs or digital phase stabilisation. We show OCT images of a human finger knuckle joint in vivo with very high quality and deep penetration.

description: Automated segmentation of retinal blood vessels in label-free fundus images entails a pivotal role in computed aided diagnosis of ophthalmic pathologies, viz., diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive disorders and cardiovascular diseases. The challenge remains active in medical image analysis research due to varied distribution of blood vessels, which manifest variations in their dimensions of physical appearance against a noisy background. In this paper we formulate the segmentation challenge as a classification task. Specifically, we employ unsupervised hierarchical feature learning using ensemble of two level of sparsely trained denoised stacked autoencoder. First level training with bootstrap samples ensures decoupling and second level ensemble formed by different network architectures ensures architectural revision. We show that ensemble training of auto-encoders fosters diversity in learning dictionary of visual kernels for vessel segmentation. SoftMax classifier is used for fine tuning each member auto-encoder and multiple strategies are explored for 2-level fusion of ensemble members. On DRIVE dataset, we achieve maximum average accuracy of 95.33\% with an impressively low standard deviation of 0.003 and Kappa agreement coefficient of 0.708 . Comparison with other major algorithms substantiates the high efficacy of our model.

Knowledge Places: Embedding Knowledge in the Space of the Classroom

description: This thesis investigates a novel approach to supporting classroom learning communities through the use of proxemic interaction and ambient visualizations. Specifically, community knowledge is embedded within the physical space of the classroom, with the aim of mediating opportunistic inter-group interactions, instigated through proximity and shared artifacts. This approach entails decomposing the community knowledge base into a collection of independent thematic sub-stores, and then conceptually distributing those sub-stores to mapped, demarcated locations around the classroom, called “Knowledge Places.” This necessitates physical movement among and proximity to those places in order for students to contribute to or otherwise access their peers’ contributions to the emerging knowledge base. This investigation was embedded within a larger NSF-funded study and was enacted over the course of ten weeks within a sixth grade classroom as part of the regular life science curriculum (e.g., food webs, ecosystems).

description: Coronal implosions - the convergence motion of plasmas and entrained magnetic field in the corona due to a reduction in magnetic pressure - can help to locate and track sites of magnetic energy release or redistribution during solar flares and eruptions. We report here on the analysis of a well-observed implosion in the form of an arcade contraction associated with a filament eruption, during the C3.5 flare SOL2013-06-19T07:29. A sequence of events including magnetic flux-rope instability and distortion, followed by filament eruption and arcade implosion, lead us to conclude that the implosion arises from the transfer of magnetic energy from beneath the arcade as part of the global magnetic instability, rather than due to local magnetic energy dissipation in the flare. The observed net contraction of the imploding loops, which is found also in nonlinear force-free field extrapolations, reflects a permanent reduction of magnetic energy underneath the arcade. This event shows that, in addition to resulting in expansion or eruption of overlying field, flux-rope instability can also simultaneously implode unopened field due to magnetic energy transfer. It demonstrates the "partial opening of the field" scenario, which is one of the ways in 3D to produce a magnetic eruption without violating the Aly-Sturrock hypothesis. In the framework of this observation we also propose a unification of three main concepts for active region magnetic evolution, namely the metastable eruption model, the implosion conjecture, and the standard "CSHKP" flare model.

The Deep Down Nature of Servant Leadership: The Interactive Role of Identity and Self Determination
Creators: name: Smallfield, Jarvis
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago

description: Servant leadership is a relational style of leadership, notable for placing the interests of others before that of the leader or organization and for originating from a desire to serve others. The outcomes of servant leadership behaviors are the source of increasing scholarly attention. In this study, I examine servant leader identity and resulting motivation to express that identity as antecedents to servant leadership behavior. Drawing upon identity expression, I seek to understand how the fulfillment of the psychological needs central to self-determination theory—autonomy, competence, and relatedness—and corresponding environmental influences—organizational support, performance feedback, and follower relatedness—interact with servant leader identity to motivate behavior. To help evaluate the hypothesized relationships, an instrument to measure servant leader identity was validated with a sample of 471 students. The hypothesized moderated mediation relationships were tested with a sample of 227 teachers, 56 principals, and 39 school board chairs taken from 69 schools across two time periods. The collected data failed to support the hypotheses. However, a post hoc analyses was conducted of the specific moderation relationships in the study which suggests that leaders’ perceptions of autonomy, competence, and relatedness needs satisfaction positively interacts with servant leader identity to influence motivation or servant leader behaviors.

description: We have quantitatively studied the spin-orbit torque purely generated by the spin Hall effect in a wide range of temperatures by intensionally eliminating the Rashba spin-orbit torque using Pt/Co/Pt trilayers with asymmetric thicknesses of the top and bottom Pt layers. The vanishingly small contribution from the Rashba effect has been confirmed through the vector measurements of the current-induced effective fields. In order to precisely determine the value of the spin Hall torque, the complete cancelation of the spin Hall torque has been verified by fabricating symmetric Pt/Co/Pt structure on SiO2 and Gd3Ga5O12 (GGG) substrates. Despite of the complete cance- lation on the GGG substrate, the spin Hall torque cannot be completely canceled out even when the top and bottom Pt layers have same thicknesses on the SiO2 substrate, which suggests that Pt/Co/Pt trilayers on a GGG substrate is a suitable system for precise measurements of the spin Hall torque. The result of the vector measurements on Pt/Co/Pt/GGG from 300 to 10 K shows that the spin Hall torque is almost independent of temperature, which is quantitatively reproduced under the assumption of the temperature-independent spin Hall angle of Pt.

description: Additional file 7. Calibration plots of pairwise treatment effect of simulated data from patients receiving lifestyle intervention or metformin. This Figure depicts observed versus predicted pairwise treatment effect by smoothed calibration curves (blue line) and quantiles of predicted pairwise treatment effect (black dots) of simulated data from the lifestyle intervention or metformin versus placebo treatment. Observed pairwise treatment effect was obtained by matching patients based on patient characteristics. Smoothed calibration curves were obtained by local regression of the observed pairwise treatment effect of matched patient pairs on predicted pairwise treatment effect of matched patient pairs. For prediction of individualized treatment effect, we used the “perturbed model” that underestimates average treatment effect for lifestyle intervention (panel A) and metformin treatment (panel B). The average treatment effect is 7.1 and 3.5, respectively.
Oscillatory convection and limitations of the Boussinesq approximation

description: We determine the asymptotic conditions under which the Boussinesq approximation is valid for oscillatory convection in a rapidly rotating fluid. In the astrophysically relevant parameter regime of small Prandtl number, we show that the Boussinesq prediction for the onset of convection is valid only under much more restrictive conditions than those that are usually assumed. In the case of an ideal gas, we recover the Boussinesq results only if the ratio of the domain height to a typical scale height is much smaller than the Prandtl number. This requires an extremely shallow domain in the astrophysical parameter regime. Other commonly-used "sound-proof" approximations generally perform no better than the Boussinesq approximation. The exception is a particular implementation of the pseudo-incompressible approximation, which predicts the correct instability threshold beyond the range of validity of the Boussinesq approximation.
