description: In this paper we focus on high order finite element approximations of the electric field combined with suitable preconditioners, to solve the time-harmonic Maxwell's equations in waveguide configurations.The implementation of high order curl-conforming finite elements is quite delicate, especially in the three-dimensional case. Here, we explicitly describe an implementation strategy, which has been embedded in the open source finite element software FreeFem++ (http://www.freefem.org/ff++/). In particular, we use the inverse of a generalized Vandermonde matrix to build basis functions in duality with the degrees of freedom, resulting in an easy-to-use but powerful interpolation operator. We carefully address the problem of applying the same Vandermonde matrix to possibly differently oriented tetrahedra of the mesh over the computational domain. We investigate the preconditioning for Maxwell's equations in the time-harmonic regime, which is an underdeveloped issue in the literature, particularly for high order discretizations. In the numerical experiments, we study the effect of varying several parameters on the spectrum of the matrix preconditioned with overlapping Schwarz methods, both for 2d and 3d waveguide configurations.

description: L dwarfs exhibit low-level, rotationally-modulated photometric variability generally associated with heterogeneous, cloud-covered atmospheres. The spectral character of these variations yields insight into the particle sizes and vertical structure of the clouds. Here we present the results of a high precision, ground-based, near-infrared, spectral monitoring study of two mid-type L dwarfs that have variability reported in the literature, 2MASS J08354256-0819237 and 2MASS J18212815+1414010, using the SpeX instrument on the Infrared Telescope Facility. By simultaneously observing a nearby reference star, we achieve <0.15% per-band sensitivity in relative brightness changes across the 0.9--2.4um bandwidth. We find that 2MASS J0835-0819 exhibits marginal (< ~0.5% per band) variability with no clear spectral dependence, while 2MASS J1821+1414 varies by up to +/-1.5% at 0.9 um, with the variability amplitude declining toward longer wavelengths. The latter result extends the variability trend observed in prior HST/WFC3 spectral monitoring of 2MASS J1821+1414, and we show that the full 0.9-2.4 um variability amplitude spectrum can be reproduced by Mie extinction from dust particles with a log-normal particle size distribution with a median radius of 0.24 um. We do not detect statistically significant phase variations with wavelength. The different variability behavior of 2MASS J0835-0819 and 2MASS J1821+1414 suggests dependencies on viewing angle and/or overall cloud content, underlying factors that can be examined through a broader survey.

description: We study the behavior of eight diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) in different interstellar environments, as characterized by the fraction of hydrogen in molecular form [$f$(H$_2$)], with comparisons to the corresponding behavior of various known atomic and molecular species. The equivalent widths of the five "normal" DIBs ($λλ$5780.5, 5797.1, 6196.0, 6283.8, and 6613.6), normalized to $E(B-V)$, show a "Lambda-shaped" behavior: they increase at low $f$(H$_2$), peak at $f$(H$_2$) ~ 0.3, and then decrease. The similarly normalized column densities of Ca, Ca$^+$, Ti$^+$, and CH$^+$ also decline for $f$(H$_2$) > 0.3. In contrast, the normalized column densities of Na, K, CH, CN, and CO increase monotonically with $f$(H$_2$), and the trends exhibited by the three C$_2$ DIBs ($λλ$4726.8, 4963.9, and 4984.8) lie between those two general behaviors. These trends with $f$(H$_2$) are accompanied by cosmic scatter, the dispersion at any given $f$(H$_2$) being significantly larger than the individual errors of measurement. The Lambda-shaped trends suggest the balance between creation and destruction of the DIB carriers differs dramatically between diffuse atomic and diffuse molecular clouds; additional processes besides ionization and shielding are needed to explain those observed trends. Except for several special cases, the highest $W$(5780)/$W$(5797) ratios, characterizing the so-called "sigma-zeta effect", occur only at $f$(H$_2$) < 0.2. We propose a sequence of DIBs based on trends in their pair-wise strength ratios with increasing $f$(H$_2$). In order of increasing environmental density, we find the $λ$6283.8 and $λ$5780.5 DIBs, the $λ$6196.0 DIB, the $λ$6613.6 DIB, the $λ$5797.1 DIB, and the C$_2$ DIBs.

The objective was to come up with an optimal set of features to separate the malignant lesions from benign ones. Based on statistical analysis of texture features, a feature selection mechanism was devised. The methodology was validated with multiple classifiers and a GUI was developed for real-time analysis of incoming images.

description: Background: $α+{^{12}{\rm C}}$ clustering in $^{16}{\rm O}$ has been of historical importance in nuclear clustering. In the last 15 years the $4α$ condensate state has been proposed as a new-type cluster state. Purpose: The aim is to reveal a dynamical process of the formation of different kinds of cluster states, in terms of a "container" aspect of clusters, in $^{16}{\rm O}$. Method: The so-called THSR wave function for the $4α$ clusters is extended to inclusion of two different containers occupied independently by the $^{12}{\rm C}$ $(3α)$ and $α$ clusters. Results: The five $J^π=0^+$ states with $4α$ tetrahedral shape, $α+{^{12}{\rm C}}$ cluster structures, and the $4α$ condensate character, are found to be represented, to good approximation, by single configurations of the extended THSR wave function with containers of appropriate shape and size. Conclusions: It is demonstrated in $^{16}{\rm O}$ that the dynamical evolution of cluster structures can be caused by size and shape evolution of a container occupied with clusters. The $α$ condensate with gaslike $4α$ configuration appears as a limit of the cluster formation.

description: The nonequilibrium Green's function method is used to study the ballistic transport in metallic carbon nanotubes when a current is injected from the electrodes with finite bias voltages. We reveal, both analytically and numerically, that large loop currents circulating around the tube are induced, which come from a quantum mechanical interference and are much larger than the current along the tube axis when the injected electron is resonant with a time-reversed pair of degenerate states, which are, in fact, inherent in the zigzag and chiral nanotubes. This results in large orbital magnetic moments, making the nanotube a molecular solenoid.

Towards a volatility index for the Italian stock market

Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Marco Biagi - Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2010

description: The aim of this paper is to analyse and empirically test how to unlock volatility information from option prices. The information content of three option based forecasts of volatility: BlackScholes implied volatility, model-free implied volatility and corridor implied volatility is addressed, with the ultimate plan of proposing a new volatility index for the Italian stock market. As for model-free implied volatility, two different extrapolation techniques are implemented. As for corridor implied volatility, five different corridors are compared. Our results, which point to a better performance of corridor implied volatilities with respect to both Black-Scholes implied volatility and model-free implied volatility, are in favour of narrow corridors. The volatility index proposed is obtained with an overall 50% cut of the risk neutral distribution. The properties of the volatility index are explored by analysing both the contemporaneous relationship between implied volatility changes and market returns and the usefulness of the proposed index in forecasting future market returns

description: We utilize an exact quantum calculation to explore axion emission from electrons and protons in the presence of the strong magnetic field of magnetars. The axion is emitted via transitions between the Landau levels generated by the strong magnetic field. The luminosity of axions emitted by protons is shown to be much larger than that of electrons and becomes stronger with increasing matter density. Cooling by axion emission is shown to be much larger than neutrino cooling by the Urca processes. Consequently, axion emission in the crust may significantly contribute to the cooling of magnetars. In the high-density core, however, it may cause heating of the magnetar.

title: Assessment of Iron and Manganese Sequestration
Creators: name: Volpe, Danielle
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Environmental Engineering
subject: FOS: Environmental engineering

description: For drinking water with low to moderate levels of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) (at or somewhat above the SMCL), sequestration is a less expensive treatment alternative compared to metal oxidation and removal. Sequestration complexes Fe and Mn to prevent precipitation and subsequent water quality problems (turbidity, color, staining, etc.). Despite the widespread use of sequestering agents, research has not resulted in a successful method to directly assess the complexation of Mn and Fe. This study was conducted to develop a method for assessing sequestering agent effectiveness and to assess the effectiveness of several phosphate based sequestering agents for several groundwater sources with varying iron and manganese concentrations. The effectiveness of three different phosphate based sequestering agents was determined at three dosages (100%, 150%, and 200% stoichiometric). Source waters had a pH between 7 and 8 as well as varying concentrations of iron, manganese, alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, and total organic carbon. For this study, an operational method to measure sequestering agent effectiveness was developed based on metal fractionation. Raw water samples were carefully collected under anoxic conditions to mimic system operating conditions and revent inadvertent iron oxidation. Raw waters were dosed with polyphosphate followed by free chlorine. pH adjustment was also conducted when necessary (pH less than 7). After a reaction period of 48 hours at 12°C, samples were fractionated to measure total, particulate, colloidal, and dissolved iron and manganese. Metals in the colloidal and dissolved forms were assumed to be effectively sequestered. Results show that sequestering agents were more effective for manganese than for iron. As much as 85% of total manganese at concentrations as high as 0.68 mg/L was sequestered whereas for iron 66% of total iron was sequestered at a total iron concentration of 0.18 mg/L. The majority of the sequestered manganese was in the dissolved form, whereas the majority of the sequestered iron was in the colloidal form. As polyphosphate dosages increased in concentration, generally more metal was sequestered. Sequestration was ineffective for source waters containing high total hardness (273 mg/L as CaCO3) probably due to competition between cations (e.g. Ca2+, Mg2+ vs. Fe2+ and Mn2+) for the sequestering agents. Conversely, sequestration was most effective for source waters containing low hardness levels (30 mg/L as CaCO 3). Although there were differences in effectiveness between sequestering agents, no consistent trends with respect to water quality were observed. Ultimately the effectiveness of sequestering agents depends on source water quality in addition to Mn and Fe levels. Bench or pilot scale testing must be completed prior to addition of sequestering agents.

description: The aim of this paper is to investigate the response of this system/scheme in terms of stability in presence of explicitly treated residual terms, as it inevitably occurs in the reality of NWP. This sudy is restricted to the impact of thermal and baric residual terms (metric residual terms linked to the orography are not considered here). It is shown that conversely to what occurs with Hydrostatic Primitive Equations, the choice of the prognostic variables used to solve the system in time is of primary importance for the robustness with Euler Equations. For an optimal choice of prognostic variables, unconditionnally stable schemes can be obtained (with respect to the length of the time-step), but only for a smaller range of reference states than in the case of Hydrostatic Primitive Equations. This study also indicates that: (i) vertical coordinates based on geometrical height and on mass behave similarly in terms of stability for the problems examined here, and (ii) hybrid coordinates induce an intrinsic instability, the practical importance of which is however not completely elucidated in the theoretical context of this paper.

Data Driven Computational Model for Bipedal Walking and Push Recovery

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Robotics (cs.RO)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this research, we have developed the data driven computational walking model to overcome the problem with traditional kinematics based model. Our model is adaptable and can adjust the parameter morphological similar to human. The human walk is a combination of different discrete sub-phases with their continuous dynamics. Any system which exhibits the discrete switching logic and continuous dynamics can be represented using a hybrid system. In this research, the bipedal locomotion is analyzed which is important for understanding the stability and to negotiate with the external perturbations. We have also studied the other important behavior push recovery. The Push recovery is also a very important behavior acquired by human with continuous interaction with environment. The researchers are trying to develop robots that must have the capability of push recovery to safely maneuver in a dynamic environment. The push is a very commonly experienced phenomenon in cluttered environment. The human beings can recover from external push up to a certain extent using different strategies of hip, knee and ankle. The different human beings have different push recovery capabilities. For example a wrestler has a better push negotiation capability compared to normal human beings. The push negotiation capability acquired by human, therefore, is based on learning but the learning mechanism is still unknown to researchers. The research community across the world is trying to develop various humanoid models to solve this mystery. Seeing all the conventional mechanics and control based models have some inherent limitations, a learning based computational model has been developed to address effectively this issue. In this research we will discuss how we have framed this problem as hybrid system.

description: In comparison to qubit-based protocols, qudit-based quantum key distribution (QKD) ones gen- erally allow two cooperative parties to share unconditionally secure keys under a higher channel noise. However, it is very hard to prepare and measure the required quantum states in qudit-based protocols in general. One exception is the recently proposed highly error tolerant qudit-based proto- col known as the Chau15 [1]. Remarkably, the state preparation and measurement in this protocol can be done relatively easily since the required states are phase encoded almost like the diagonal basis states of a qubit. Here we report the first proof-of-principle demonstration of the Chau15 protocol. One highlight of our experiment is that its post-processing is based on practical one-way manner, while the original proposal in Ref. [1] relies on complicated two-way post-processing, which is a great challenge in experiment. In addition, by manipulating time-bin qudit and measurement with a variable delay interferometer, our realization is extensible to qudit with high-dimensionality and confirms the experimental feasibility of the Chau15 protocol.

description: In this paper we investigate household financial fragility and assess the role played by the composition of the household portfolio besides standard determinants of this condition (e.g. income, indebtedness, age, gender, financial literacy). We take the case of Italy, given the very peculiar portfolio composition (high level of housing and low level of indebtedness and portfolio diversification) and provide two main contributions. First, we propose a novel definition of financial fragility. Second, based on this new measure, we use data from the 1998-2010 Bank of Italy Survey on Household Income and Wealth to investigate the determinants of this condition. Our results confirm most usual markers of financial fragility and additionally highlight the role of homeownership, which is not related to the presence of mortgages but it is rather connected to specific socio-demographic features such as age and marital status.

description: Multiple channels have been proposed to produce Type Ia supernovae, with many scenarios suggesting that the exploding white dwarf accretes from a binary companion pre-explosion. In almost all cases, theory suggests that this companion will survive. However, no such companion has been unambiguously identified in ancient supernova remnants -- possibly falsifying the accretion scenario. Existing surveys, however, have only looked for stars as faint as $\approx 0.1 L_\odot$ and thus would have missed a surviving white dwarf companion. In this work, we present very deep DECAM imaging $(u, g, r, z)$ of the Type Ia supernova remnant SN 1006 specifically to search for a potential surviving white dwarf companion. We find no object within the inner third of the SN 1006 remnant that is consistent with a relatively young cooling white dwarf. We find that if there is a companion white dwarf, it must have formed long ago and cooled undisturbed for $> 10^8$ yr to be consistent with the redder objects in our sample. We conclude that our findings are consistent with the complete destruction of the secondary (such as in a merger) or an unexpectedly cool and thus very dim surviving companion white dwarf.

A modification of the Monte Carlo method for simulation of radiative transfer in molecular clouds
Creators: name: Voronkov, Maxim A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a method of simulation that is based on the averaging of formal solutions of the transfer equation by taking the integral by the Monte Carlo method. This method is used to compute two models, which correspond to the limiting cases of hot gas and cold background radiation and of hot background radiation and cold gas, for E-methanol emission from a compact homogeneous spherical region. We analyse model level populations by using rotational diagrams in the limiting cases mentioned above. Model optical depths of the lines with frequencies below 300 GHz up to J=11 inclusive are given.

description: Annotations on the FM localisation. As part of the supplementary material, we report the apparent length of the FMs for each observer and the time spent by each observer performing the FM localisation over all the patients. In particular, Table 1 shows the mean, standard deviation (STD), range [min, max] of the apparent length, expressed in mm. The weighted mean over all the observer is 7.5Âą0.6 mm and 7.7Âą0.7 mm for localisation using a single and multiple sequences, respectively. Note that the apparent length was longer than the nominal length of the FM (5 mm). Table 2 reports the mean, STD and range of the time needed by each observer to perform the FM localisation using single and multiple sequences. The weighted mean over all the observer is 5.8Âą1.4 min. Note that all the RTTs localised the FMs first using a single and then multiple sequences for all the patients. The RTTs were free to chose the order of patients and whether concluding the procedure first for each the patients using both single and multiple sequences or first for all the patients using single sequence and then repeat for all the patients using multiple modalities. Possible differences in the way the RTTs performed the procedure does not permit to understand whether the FM localisation is faster using single or multiple sequences. In addition, a histogram reporting the frequency of unreliable FM localisation, as perceived by the RTTs is shown in Fig. 1 for four out of five observers; one of the observers did not report the reliability of the localisation. The observers reported the perceived reliability without distinction between localisation performed employing a single and multiple sequences. (PDF 108 kb)

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.

Effect of Quadratic Zeeman Energy on the Vortex of Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensates
Creators: name: Isoshima, Tomoya

description: The spinor Bose-Einstein condensate of atomic gases has been experimentally realized by a number of groups. Further, theoretical proposals of the possible vortex states have been sugessted. This paper studies the effects of the quadratic Zeeman energy on the vortex states. This energy was ignored in previous theoretical studies, although it exists in experimental systems. We present phase diagrams of various vortex states taking into account the quadratic Zeeman energy. The vortex states are calculated by the Gross-Pitaevskii equations. Several new kinds of vortex states are found. It is also found that the quadratic Zeeman energy affects the direction of total magnetization and causes a significant change in the phase diagrams.

Education ties and investments abroad. Empirical evidence from the US and UK

description: This paper analyses the impact of university student ties on the FDI of the US and UK into 167 countries during the period 1999-2010. University ties are measured by international students flows and alumni associations worldwide. Studies on transnational social networks suggest that effects should be higher on the FDI directed to the developing economies. The paper?s main findings are that international student flows and alumni associations abroad exert a positive influence on the FDI from the US and UK into the students? home countries. More specifically, their influence is strong and significant in the group of developing countries. Results, similar for the US and UK, are robust to different regressors and econometric specifications.
On a modification method of Lefschetz thimbles
Creators: name: Tsutsui, Shoichiro

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: The QCD at finite density is not well understood yet, where standard Monte Carlo simulation suffers from the sign problem. In order to overcome the sign problem, the method of Lefschetz thimble has been explored. Basically, the original sign problem can be less severe in a complexified theory due to the constancy of the imaginary part of an action on each thimble. However, global phase factors assigned on each thimble still remain. Their interference is not negligible in a situation where a large number of thimbles contribute to the partition function, and this could also lead to a sign problem.In this study, we propose a method to resolve this problem by modifying the structure of Lefschetz thimbles such that only a single thimble is relevant to the partition function. It can be shown that observables measured in the original and modified theories are connected by a simple identity. We exemplify that our method works well in a toy model.

description: We associate vertex operator algebras to $(p,q)$-webs of interfaces in the topologically twisted $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory. Y-algebras associated to trivalent junctions are identified with truncations of $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$ algebra. Starting with Y-algebras as atomic elements, we describe gluing of Y-algebras analogous to that of the topological vertex. At the level of characters, the construction matches the one of counting D0-D2-D4 bound states in toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. For some configurations of interfaces, we propose a BRST construction of the algebras and check in examples that both constructions agree. We define generalizations of $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$ algebra and identify a large class of glued algebras with their truncations. The gluing construction sheds new light on the structure of vertex operator algebras conventionally constructed by BRST reductions or coset constructions and provides us with a way to construct new algebras. Many well-known vertex operator algebras, such as $U(N)_k$ affine Lie algebra, $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal algebra, $\mathcal{N}=2$ super-$\mathcal{W}_\infty$, Bershadsky-Polyakov $\mathcal{W}_3^{(2)}$, cosets and Drinfeld-Sokolov reductions of unitary groups can be obtained as special cases of this construction.
On the Use of a Wider Class of Linear Systems for the Design of Constant-Coefficients Semi-Implicit Time-Schemes in NWP

description: The linearization of the meteorological equations around a specified reference state, usually applied in NWP to define the linear system of constant-coefficients semi-implicit schemes, is outlined as an unnecessarily restrictive approach which may be detrimental in terms of stability. It is shown theoretically that an increased robustness can sometimes be obtained by choosing the reference linear system in a wider set of possibilities. The potential benefits of this new approach are illustrated in two simple examples. The advantage in robustness is not obtained at the price of an increased error or complexity.
