description: This study examines whether implementation of electronic reminders is associated with a change in the amount and content of diagnostic data recorded in primary health care emergency departments (ED). A register-based 12-year follow-up study with a before-and-after design. This study was performed in a primary health care ED in Finland. An electronic reminder was installed in the health record system to remind physicians to include the diagnosis code of the visit to the health record. The report generator of the electronic health record-system provided monthly figures for the number of different recorded diagnoses by using the International Classification of Diagnoses (ICD-10th edition) and the total number of ED physician visits, thus allowing the calculation of the recording rate of diagnoses on a monthly basis and the comparison of diagnoses before and after implementing electronic reminders. The most commonly recorded diagnoses in the ED were acute upper respiratory infections of various and unspecified sites (5.8%), abdominal and pelvic pain (4.8%), suppurative and unspecified otitis media (4.5%) and dorsalgia (4.0%). The diagnosis recording rate in the ED doubled from 41.2 to 86.3% (p Electronic reminders may alter the documentation habits of physicians and recording of clinical data, such as diagnoses, in the EDs.

description: Integrating multiple services into a single network is becoming increasingly common in today’s telecommunications industry. Driven by the emergence of new applications, many of these services will be offered with guaranteed quality of service. While there are extensive studies of the engineering problems of designing integrated services networks with guaranteed quality of service, related economic problems, such as how to price services offered by this type of network, are not well understood. In this chapter, we analyze the problem of pricing and capacity investment for an integrated-services network with guaranteed quality of service. Based on an optimal control model formulation, we develop a 3-stage procedure to determine the optimal amount of capacity and the optimal price schedule. We show that pricing a network service is similar to pricing a tangible product, except that the marginal cost of producing the product is replaced by the opportunity cost of providing the service, which includes both the opportunity cost of reserving and the opportunity cost of using network capacity. Our findings lays out a framework for making investment and pricing decisions, as well as for the analysis of related economic tradeoffs. The analysis in this chapter assumes an integrated-service network with fixedlength data units such as Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network. The same approach can be used to analyze variable packet length IP networks offering guaranteed quality of service through the use of protocols such as Resources reSerVation Protocol (RSVP).

description: This work is dedicated to the search of dark matter in the Perseus Galaxy Cluster with MAGIC:
 Clusters of galaxies are the largest known gravitationally bound structures in the Universe, and most of their masses comes in the form of dark matter. The study, conducted on almost 400 hours of data taken with a special technique in orderin order to take into account the cluster morphology (many bright sources were present in the field of view) concludes that dark matter particles have a decay lifetime longer than ∼10^26s in all considered channels. This result improves previous lower limits found by MAGIC and represent the strongest set of limits on decaying dark matter particles from ground-based gamma-ray instruments.

description: We demonstrate that the relic gravitational wave background from a multi-step phase transition may deviate from the simple sum of the single spectra, for phase transitions with similar nucleation temperatures $T_N$. We demonstrate that the temperature range $ΔT$ between the volume fractions $f(T)=0.1$ and $f(T)=0.9$ occupied by the vacuum bubbles can span $\sim 20$ GeV. This allows for a situation in which phase transitions overlap, such that the later bubbles may nucleate both in high temperature and intermediate temperature phases. Such scenarios may lead to more exotic gravitational wave spectra, which cannot be fitted that of a consecutive PTs. We demonstrate this explicitly in the singlet extension of the Standard Model. Finally, we comment on potential additional effects due to the more exotic dynamics of overlapping phase transitions.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We study the portfolio selection problem in a new product development setting with many projects in parallel, each lasting several stages, in the face of uncertainty. Each stage of the process performs an experiment on a selected number of projects in the stage, depending on the amount of (scarce) budget allocated to the stage. Projects become differentiated through their experimental results, and all available results for a project determine its category.

We model the problem as a Markov decision process. We seek an optimal policy that specifies, for every configuration of projects in categories, which projects to test and/or terminate. For two special cases we characterize the optimal project promotion policy as following a new type of strategy, state-dependent non-congestive promotion (SDNCP). SDNCP implies that a project with the highest expected reward in any stage is advanced to the next stage if and only if the number of projects in each successor category is below a congestion-dependent threshold. For the general problem, numerical experiments reveal the outstanding performance of SDNCP (optimal in 72 of 77 instances with maximum deviation from optimal of 0.67%), highlighting when and how a fixed non-congestive promotion policy, which is easier to implement, may fall short.
Equations of Motion for Effective Lagrangians and Penguins in Rare B-Decays

description: We study the application of the classical equations of motion (EOM) within the framework of an effective low-energy Lagrangian treated at the loop level. Gauge-fixing and ghost terms, which enter naturally in the EOM, are found to lead to no physical effects --- neither through operator mixing nor in matrix elements. Beyond first order in the effective interactions, contact terms have to be included when reducing the effective Lagrangian and we present an explicit procedure to construct them. Applied to (hadronic) rare B-decays, the EOM drastically simplify the effective Lagrangian and its matching to the underlying theory, and certain cancellations of large (logarithmic) contributions become more transparent. Finally, we discuss details of the `matching' of the effective Lagrangian, which may be helpful in incorporating short distance QCD corrections in further phenomenological studies.

We find that only the potential models which were explicitly fitted to the pp data give a reasonable description of these data. Most models give a pretty large chi**2 on the very low-energy pp data, due to incorrect 1S0 phase shifts.

description: The paper analyzes time propagation of Dirac observables - using Heisenberg representation - in the light of various pseudodifferential operator algebras (cf. [Co3], [Co15], [Co16]). Our theory gives (i) a mechanical angular momentum (the spin), but also (ii) another real 3-vector, travelling with the particle, with magnetic properties (its motion guided by the magnetic field around it, but not in the proper relativistic way). The above is discussed for potentials vanishing at infinity. But we also look at a Dirac particle in the field of a plane polarized X-ray wave, trying to analyze the Compton effect. The propagations of energy and momentum (in the X-ray's direction) are coupled - they allow a joint asymptotic expansion with terms representing change of energy by $nhν$ and momentum by $nhν/c$, with n=0,1,2, ..., valid for large frequencies, i.e., large momentum coordinates. Possible interpretation: A collision of the electron-positron with 0, 1, 2, ... n Photons of energy $hν$, affecting a change of energy-momentum. Note, this does not require QFT.

description: We consider the problem of computing optimal schedules in multi-agent systems. In these problems, actions of one agent can influence the actions of other agents, while the objective is to maximize the total `quality' of the schedule. More specifically, we focus on multiagent scheduling problems with time windows, hard and soft precedence relations, and a nonlinear objective function. We show how we can model and efficiently solve these problems with constraint programming technology. Elements of our proposed method include constraint-based reasoning, search strategies, problem decomposition, scheduling algorithms, and a linear programming relaxation. We present experimental results on realistic problem instances to display the different elements of the solution process.

description: Current methods of routing are based on network information in the form of routing tables, in which routing protocols determine how to update the tables according to the network changes. Despite the variability of data in routing tables, node addresses are constant. In this paper, we first introduce the new concept of variable addresses, which results in a novel framework to cope with routing problems using heuristic solutions. Then we propose a heuristic routing mechanism based on the application of genes for determination of network addresses in a variable address network and describe how this method flexibly solves different problems and induces new ideas in providing integral solutions for variety of problems. The case of ad-hoc networks is where simulation results are more supportive and original solutions have been proposed for issues like mobility.

Dynamics of decoherence of an entangled pair of qubits locally connected to a one-dimensional disordered spin chain

description: We study the non-equilibrium evolution of concurrence of a Bell pair constituted of two qubits, through the measurement of Loschmidt echo (LE) under the scope of generalized central spin model. Having detected the Griffiths phase via derivative of LE in equilibrium, we show that in the non-equilibrium situation, the spin chain requires a temporal window to realize the effect of disorder. We show that within this timescale, LE falls off exponentially and this decay is maximally controlled by the initial states and coupling strength. Our detail investigation suggests that there actually exist three types of exponential decay, a Gaussian decay in ultra short time scale followed by two exponential decay in the intermediate time with two different decay exponents. The effect of the disorder starts appearing in the late time power law fall of LE where the power law exponent is strongly dependent on disorder strength and the final state but almost independent of initial states and coupling strength. This feature allows us to indicate the presence of Griffiths phase. To be precise, continuously varying critical exponent and wide distribution of relaxation time imprint their effect in LE in the late time limit where the power law fall is absent for quenching to a Griffiths phase. Here, LE vanishes following the fast exponential fall. Interestingly, for off-critical quenching LE attains a higher saturation value for increasing disorder strength, otherwise vanishes for a clean spin chain, referring to the fact that disorder prohibits the rapid decay of entanglement in long time limit. Moreover, we show that disorder is also able to destroy the light cone like nature of post quench quasi-particles as LE does not sense the singular time scales appearing for clean spin chain with qubits coupled at symmetric positions.

description: We present the parameters of 891 stars, mostly clump giants, including atmospheric parameters, distances, absolute magnitudes, spatial velocities, galactic orbits and ages. One part of this sample consists of local giants, within 100 pc, with atmospheric parameters either estimated from our spectroscopic observations at high resolution and high signal-to-noise ratio, or retrieved from the literature. The other part of the sample includes 523 distant stars, which we have estimated atmospheric parameters from high resolution but low signal-to-noise Echelle spectra. This new sample is kinematically unbiased, with well-defined boundaries in magnitude and colours. We revisit the basic properties of the Galactic thin disk as traced by clump giants. We find the metallicity distribution to be different from that of dwarfs, with less metal-rich stars. We find evidence for a vertical metallicity gradient of -0.31 dex/kpc and for a transition at 4-5 Gyr in both the metallicity and velocities. The age - metallicity relation (AMR), which exhibits a very low dispersion, increases smoothly from 10 to 4 Gyr, with a steeper increase for younger stars. The age-velocity relation (AVR) is characterized by the saturation of the V and W dispersions at 5 Gyr, and continuous heating in U.

description: Betaglycan (BG) is a transmembrane co-receptor of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family of signaling ligands. It is essential for embryonic development, tissue homeostasis and fertility in adults. It functions by enabling binding of the three TGF-β isoforms to their signaling receptors and is additionally required for inhibin A (InhA) activity. Despite its requirement for the functions of TGF-βs and InhA in vivo, structural information explaining BG ligand selectivity and its mechanism of action is lacking. Here, we determine the structure of TGF-β bound both to BG and the signaling receptors, TGFBR1 and TGFBR2. We identify key regions responsible for ligand engagement, which has revealed binding interfaces that differ from those described for the closely related co-receptor of the TGF-β family, endoglin, thus demonstrating remarkable evolutionary adaptation to enable ligand selectivity. Finally, we provide a structural explanation for the hand-off mechanism underlying TGF-β signal potentiation.

description: The procurement of commodities, such as basic raw materials and energy sources, is an important operations management activity that can significantly impact the value of a firm. Managing commodities may also include trading of commodities' contracts on the financial markets. The finance and economics literature suggests that financial hedging is a valuable risk management strategy because it can reduce the agency cost. We elaborate on this idea by studying the interaction between financial trading and physical trading decisions within a firm from the principal-agent perspective. This interaction creates tension between the compensation that the firm provides to the procurement manager responsible for physical trading and the financial hedging decision of the firm: a higher bonus rate makes the procurement manager exert more effort, which reduces the variability of the commodity price and reduces the need for hedging. As a result of this tension, we find that the bonus rate is non-monotonic in several parameters that characterize the firm and the manager, such as the average commodity price and the ability level of the manager. We also find that only medium sized companies engaged in commodity procurement should use financial hedging to reduce agency costs.

description: In grand unified theories the flavor mixing angles of leptons are related to those of quarks. In this paper we study SO(10) theories with a precise group theoretic relation at the GUT scale for mixing between the heaviest two generations: $\thetuto = κ\abs{\vcbo}$. A comprehensive operator search yields all possible cases where $κ$ is a group theory Clebsch. The resulting predictions for $ν_μν_τ$ oscillations are scaled from the grand to the weak scales. We find that all but one of the models which have such a relationship between $\thetuto$ and $\vcbo$, and are not already excluded, will be probed by the CHORUS and NOMAD experiments. A more precise mixing measurement, for example by the proposed P803 experiment, could distinguish between the models.

Large displacement width for the $Δ$ - h excitations and considerable contribution of coherent pion production were found for the reaction on $^{12}$C.

description: The rare decays $\bar B\rightarrow X_sγ$ and $B_s^0\rightarrow μ^+μ^-$ are important to research new physics beyond standard model. In this work, we investigate two loop electroweak corrections to $\bar B\rightarrow X_sγ$ and $B_s^0\rightarrow μ^+μ^-$ in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the SM with local $B-L$ gauge symmetry (B-LSSM), under a minimal flavor violating assumption for the soft breaking terms. In this framework, new particles and new definition of squarks can affect the theoretical predictions of these two processes, with respect to the MSSM. Considering the constraints from updated experimental data, the numerical results show that the B-LSSM can fit the experimental data for the branching ratios of $\bar B\rightarrow X_sγ$ and $B_s^0\rightarrow μ^+μ^-$. The results of the rare decays also further constrain the parameter space of the B-LSSM.

description: The purpose of this doctoral dissertation was to examine the life skills transfer process from sport to life. Data collection occurred over 10-months, from September 2016 to June 2017. The overall sample was comprised of 13 university intramural athletes and 29 social agents playing key roles in the athletes’ lives outside of sport (e.g., parents, partners, and work colleagues). Four methods of data collection were employed: (a) individual semi-structured interviews, (b) chronological charts, (c) timelines, and (d) solicited journals. The findings from this dissertation are organized into three articles. In article one, a grounded theory methodology was used to examine how athletes apply in life the skills they believe they learned or refined in sport. Within the substantive grounded theory, life skills application is framed as an ongoing process that involves four steps (a) decision-making, (b) application, (c) appraisal, and (d) adaptation. Article one adds to the literature by outlining the key behavioural and cognitive mechanisms that help explain what occurs once athletes move beyond sport and apply in different life domains the skills they deem to have learned or refined in sport. Article two presents a longitudinal integrated qualitative approach for “getting at” the life skills transfer process from sport to life. The integrated approach is illustrated through an exemplar case of a 23-year-old athlete (Claire) and her process of learning/refining emotional regulation in sport and applying this skill outside of sport. Three individuals able to speak to Claire’s behaviour outside of sport (i.e., mother, classmate, and work colleague) were also part of the case. Article two adds to the literature by demonstrating how qualitative techniques can be integrated to produce new insights on the life skills transfer process to an extent not previously gleaned through one-shot interview designs. In article three, the substantive grounded theory of life skills application was used to document one athlete’s (Joseph) journey through the life skills application process. Specifically, narrative inquiry was employed to tell Joseph’s story of applying the life skill of leadership at work as he progressed through the four steps described in the substantive grounded theory. Data collection involved three individual semi-structured interviews and three months of solicited journaling. Article three adds to the literature by moving beyond documenting examples of life skills application and instead, illustrating how Joseph’s emotions, thoughts, and behaviours evolved over time to influence his experiences of life skills application. Overall, the findings from this dissertation make theoretical, methodological, and empirical contributions to the life skills transfer literature in sport psychology and further elucidate the notion that sport can have a lasting impact on youth’s development.

description: Storage capacity for energy, such as electricity, natural gas, and oil, is limited. Thus, spot and forward purchases for delivery on the usage date play an important role in matching the supply and the uncertain demand of energy. Transaction costs tend to be larger in spot than forward energy, and more generally commodity, markets. Hence, partially procuring supply in the forward market, rather than entirely in the spot market, is a potentially valuable real option. We call this option the forward procurement option. The study of this option from the perspective of differential transaction costs has received little attention in the literature. We thus formulate and analyze a parsimonious procurement model with differential spot and forward transaction costs and correlated spot demand and nominal price random variables. Our analysis, in part based on natural gas data, sheds novel light on the value of the forward procurement option and its optimal exercise, as well as their sensitivities to parameters of interest. Our main insight is that procuring the demand forecast in the forward market is nearly optimal on the instances that we consider. This greatly simplifies the management of this option. We obtain analogous results with a richer model in which the supply procured in the forward market is delivered at multiple dates. Beyond energy, our research has potential relevance for the procurement of other commodities, such as metals and agricultural products.

description: Algorithms for data visualizations are essential tools for transforming data into useful narratives. Unfortunately, very few visualization algorithms can handle the large datasets of many real-world scenarios. In this study, we address the visualization of these datasets as a Multi-Objective Optimization Problem. We propose mQAPViz, a divide-and-conquer multi-objective optimization algorithm to compute large-scale data visualizations. Our method employs the Multi-Objective Quadratic Assignment Problem (mQAP) as the mathematical foundation to solve the visualization task at hand. The algorithm applies advanced sampling techniques originating from the field of machine learning and efficient data structures to scale to millions of data objects. The algorithm allocates objects onto a 2D grid layout. Experimental results on real-world and large datasets demonstrate that mQAPViz is a competitive alternative to existing techniques.

description: The motion planning problem is a fundamental problem in robotics, so that every autonomous robot should be able to deal with it. A number of solutions have been proposed and a probabilistic one seems to be quite reasonable. However, here we propose a more adoptive solution that uses fuzzy set theory and we expose this solution next to a sort survey on the recent theory of soft robots, for a future qualitative comparison between the two.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

NLO PDFs from the ABMP16 fit

description: We perform a global fit of parton distribution functions (PDFs) together with the strong coupling constant $α_s$ and the quark masses $m_c$, $m_b$ and $m_t$ at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD. The analysis applies the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}\, $ renormalization scheme for $α_s$ and all quark masses. It is performed in the fixed-flavor number scheme for $n_f=3, 4, 5$ and uses the same data as the previous fit of the ABMP16 PDF at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). The new NLO PDFs complement the set of ABMP16 PDFs and are to be used consistently with NLO QCD predictions for hard scattering processes. At NLO we obtain the value $α_s^{(n_f=5)}(M_Z) = 0.1191 \pm 0.0011$ compared to $α_s^{(n_f=5)}(M_Z) = 0.1147 \pm 0.0008$ at NNLO.

description: The Chalker-Coddington network model is often used to describe the transport properties of quantum Hall systems. By adding an extra channel to this model, we introduce an asymmetric model with profoundly different transport properties. We present a numerical analysis of these transport properties and consider the relevance for realistic systems.

Exact 1-Fermion Loop Contributions in 1+1 Dimensional Solitons

Year: 1992

description: We find solutions to the 1+1 dimensional scalar-only linear sigma model. A new method is used to compute 1-fermion loop contributions exactly and agreement with published results employing other methods is excellent. A renormalization scheme which differs from that commonly used in such calculations but similar to that required in 1+3 dimensions is also presented. We compare ``kink'' {\it versus} ``shallow bag'' solutions paying careful attention to the implications of the 1-fermion loop contributions for the stability of the former. We find that, for small fermion multiplicities, self-consistent shallow bag solutions are always more bound than their metastable kink counterparts. However, as the fermion multiplicity increases, shallow bags evolve into kinks which eventually are the only self-consistent configurations. This situation is qualitatively the same for the two renormalization schemes considered. When we construct ``baryons'', each containing three fermions, the kink configuration is typically more bound than the shallow bag when 1-fermion loop contributions are included.

description: This is intended to be a very basic introduction and short (and of course incomplete) overview of thermal field theory. In the first part, I introduce the thermal propagator at a very simple level and give the Feynman rules using the time-path contour method. In the second part, I give examples of these rules in scalar theory and discuss the origin of the thermal mass and other important effects as infrared divergences and phase transitions. In the third part, I outline the resummation program of Braaten and Pisarski.
