description: We suggest a new methodology for designing robust energy systems. For this, we investigate so-called near-optimal solutions to energy system optimisation models; solutions whose objective values deviate only marginally from the optimum. Using a refined method for obtaining explicit geometric descriptions of these near-optimal feasible spaces, we find designs that are as robust as possible to perturbations. This contributes to the ongoing debate on how to define and work with robustness in energy systems modelling. We apply our methods in an investigation using multiple decades of weather data. For the first time, we run a capacity expansion model of the European power system (one node per country) with a 3-hourly temporal resolution with 41 years of weather data. While an optimisation with 41 weather years is at the limits of computational feasibility, we use the near-optimal feasible spaces of single years to gain an understanding of the design space over the full time period. Specifically, we intersect all near-optimal feasible spaces for the individual years in order to get designs that are likely to be feasible over the entire time period. We find significant potential for investment flexibility, and verify the feasibility of these designs by simulating the resulting dispatch problem with four decades of weather data. They are characterised by a shift towards more onshore wind and solar power, while emitting up to 50% less $CO_2$ than a cost-optimal solution over that period. Our work builds on recent developments in the field, including techniques such as Modelling to Generate Alternatives and Modelling All Alternatives, and provides new insights into the geometry of near-optimal feasible spaces and the importance of multi-decade weather variability for energy systems design. We also provide an effective way of working with a multi-decade time frame in a highly parallelised manner.

description: Dem Erstellen und Bearbeiten von digitalen Bildern liegen mathematische Definitionen und Methoden zu Grunde. Wie diese Grundlagen didaktisch reduziert und im Mathematikunterricht der allgemeinbildenden höheren Schulen in der Sekundarstufe II angewandt werden können, ist der Untersuchungsgegenstand dieser Arbeit. Hierbei werden Aspekte der Bildbearbeitung in Hinsicht auf den Lebensweltbezug der Schülerinnen und Schüler, den pädagogischen Nutzen und die Vereinbarkeit mit dem geltenden Lehrplan für Mathematik in den allgemeinbildenden höheren Schulen erörtert. Grundlegende mathematische Objekte und Operationen werden für die Bildbearbeitung definiert und anschließend didaktisch an schulische Voraussetzungen angepasst. Daran anknüpfend werden praktische Anwendungsbeispiele für den Schulunterricht erarbeitet. Dafür wurde im Rahmen der Arbeit eine siebenstündige Unterrichtssequenz zu den mathematischen Grundlagen der Bildbearbeitung in zwei Klassen der 11. Schulstufe abgehalten und anschließend evaluiert. In einer Befragung wurde das digitale Bildnutzungsverhalten der Schülerinnen und Schüler erhoben und interpretiert. Ausgewählte, im Unterricht entstandene Lernprodukte werden präsentiert und die Durchfuhrbarkeit sowie die Relevanz des Themas für den Mathematikunterricht bestätigt.
description: Creating and processing digital images relies on implementing definitions and methods from mathematics. This thesis develops a simplified approach to the mathematics behind image processing for students at the secondary level. Aspects of the application of image processing in school are discussed regarding the relevance for students, pedagogical benefit and compatibility with the Austrian curriculum. Mathematical methods relevant for image processing are defined and later explained on a level of difficulty that fits the competence of students at the secondary level. For this purpose applications are introduced and a workshop on the mathematics of image processing has been applied and evaluated in two classes of the eleventh grade. Data about the behaviour of students regarding the usage of digital images and image processing has been gathered and interpreted. Selected results created by students in the workshop are presented. The integration of image processing into mathematical education is confirmed as feasible and relevant.

description: The Ethiopian construction industry has been busy with building roads and construction of new buildings in the capital, Addis Ababa and across the country in the past decade or so, at a large scale. These constructions are undertaken by both local and international contractors. However, it has been observed that the performance of local contractors is by far at a lower level than the international contractors. International contractors deliver the product in time, at the given cost and at an acceptable quality way beyond comparison with those delivered by the local contractors, posing the question: what are the factors that affect the performance of local and international contractors resulting in such differences in there deliverables? Based on review of literature, a total of 35 factors has been selected that influence both local and international contractors and another 15 factors were also included which influence international contractors in particular. The identified factors were categorized into groups depending on types of performance process. Statistical analyses of their significance were carried out based on the questionnaire survey with senior professionals from both groups of contractors. The results of the analyses have confirmed that all respondents agreed that their performance was influenced by all the factors indicated in the questionnaire and also identified the top ten factors which significantly affect performance. Recommendations towards improvement of the current performance for local contractors were forwarded: they need to ensure that they have enough capital base and proper cash flow, adequate experience for a required assignment, proper planning and scheduling of the works and ensure effective site management and supervision of the works and also to better control cost, local contractors shall make use of earned value concept to calculate cost and schedule variances as well as performance indices and forecasts of project cost and schedule duration. On the other hand, International contractors were recommended to have project knowledge of Ethiopia, its social norms, expectations and local preferences, cultural issues, approval processes, operating law; material and labor quality, differences encountered in work practices, cultural differences, design and construction standards and permit processes. Understanding these differences and fine distinction in different countries help them reduce the risks involved, thereby increasing the success of global projects.

description: We propose to utilize NISQ-era quantum devices to compute short distance quantities in $(2+1)$-dimensional QED and to combine them with large volume Monte Carlo simulations and perturbation theory. On the quantum computing side, we perform a calculation of the mass gap in the small and intermediate regime, demonstrating, in the latter case, that it can be resolved reliably. The so obtained mass gap can be used to match corresponding results from Monte Carlo simulations, which can be used eventually to set the physical scale. In this paper we provide the setup for the quantum computation and show results for the mass gap and the plaquette expectation value. In addition, we discuss some ideas that can be applied to the computation of the running coupling. Since the theory is asymptotically free, it would serve as a training ground for future studies of QCD in $(3+1)$-dimensions on quantum computers.

description: This thesis explores the function of autobiographical memory in people suffering from schizophrenia, and how these functions are associated with other factors, such as emotions, perceived relationships, and how they made meaning of the lived experiences. The results of these studies have both theoretical and practical implications. For example, the finding of self-discrepancy in ought-self predicting the ruminative function of AMs indicates that the self plays a significant role in how we retrieve our past. Besides that, some findings also have direct practical implications of what patients with schizophrenia need in their recovery stage — social relationships.

description: We are given suppliers and customers, and a set of tables. Every evening of the forthcoming days, there will be a dinner. Each customer must eat with each supplier exactly once, but two suppliers may meet at most once at a table. The number of customers and the number of suppliers who can sit together at a table are bounded above by fixed parameters. What is the minimum number of evenings to be scheduled in order to reach this objective? This question was submitted by a firm to the Junior company of a French engineering school some years ago. Lower and upper bounds are given in this paper, as well as proven optimal solutions with closed-form expressions for some cases.
On Block Accelerations of Quantile Randomized Kaczmarz for Corrupted Systems of Linear Equations

description: With the growth of large data as well as large-scale learning tasks, the need for efficient and robust linear system solvers is greater than ever. The randomized Kaczmarz method (RK) and similar stochastic iterative methods have received considerable recent attention due to their efficient implementation and memory footprint. These methods can tolerate streaming data, accessing only part of the data at a time, and can also approximate the least squares solution even if the system is affected by noise. However, when data is instead affected by large (possibly adversarial) corruptions, these methods fail to converge, as corrupted data points draw iterates far from the true solution. A recently proposed solution to this is the QuantileRK method, which avoids harmful corrupted data by exploring the space carefully as the method iterates. The exploration component requires the computation of quantiles of large samples from the system and is computationally much heavier than the subsequent iteration update. In this paper, we propose an approach that better uses the information obtained during exploration by incorporating an averaged version of the block Kaczmarz method. This significantly speeds up convergence, while still allowing for a constant fraction of the equations to be arbitrarily corrupted. We provide theoretical convergence guarantees as well as experimental supporting evidence. We also demonstrate that the classical projection-based block Kaczmarz method cannot be robust to sparse adversarial corruptions, but rather the blocking has to be carried out by averaging one-dimensional projections.

Thus high-quality measurements of these differential observables are highly desired. The corresponding rates are predicted to be of the same order of magnitude as those for $\bar{B}^0_d \to J/ψπ^+π^-$ measured recently at LHCb, letting the corresponding measurement appear feasible.

description: We present a realization of fracton-elasticity duality purely formulated in terms of ordinary gauge fields, encompassing standard elasticity and incommensurate crystals as those describing twisted bilayer graphene, quasicrystals or more general moiré lattices. Our construction comprises a description of all types of two-dimensional defects: disclinations, dislocations, discompressions and point-like defects, and takes into account body forces and impurities. The original form of the duality in terms of tensor gauge fields is recovered after partial gauge fixing. We identify the coupling of each type of defect to the dual gauge fields, and from gauge invariance we derive generalized continuity equations for the defect currents and the expected mobility restrictions of elasticity defects.

Comparison-based Conversational Recommender System with Relative Bandit Feedback

description: With the recent advances of conversational recommendations, the recommender system is able to actively and dynamically elicit user preference via conversational interactions. To achieve this, the system periodically queries users' preference on attributes and collects their feedback. However, most existing conversational recommender systems only enable the user to provide absolute feedback to the attributes. In practice, the absolute feedback is usually limited, as the users tend to provide biased feedback when expressing the preference. Instead, the user is often more inclined to express comparative preferences, since user preferences are inherently relative. To enable users to provide comparative preferences during conversational interactions, we propose a novel comparison-based conversational recommender system. The relative feedback, though more practical, is not easy to be incorporated since its feedback scale is always mismatched with users' absolute preferences. With effectively collecting and understanding the relative feedback from an interactive manner, we further propose a new bandit algorithm, which we call RelativeConUCB. The experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets validate the advantage of our proposed method, compared to the existing bandit algorithms in the conversational recommender systems.

description: We study the effect of quenched disorder in square artificial spin ice by means of numerical simulations. We introduce disorder in the length of magnetic islands using two kinds of distributions: Gaussian and uniform. As the system behavior depends on its geometrical parameters, we focus on studying it in the proximity of the ice regime which is quite difficult to thermalize both in experiments and simulations. We show how length disorder affect the antiferromagnetic and (locally) ferromagnetic ordering, by inducing the system, in the case of weak disorder, to intermediate or mix states. Moreover, in the case of strong disorder, ferromagnetic plaquettes prevail regardless of whether the mean length of the islands corresponds to an antiferromagnetic ordering.

description: We classify the weakly interacting fixed points of general gauge theories coupled to matter and explain how the competition between gauge and matter fluctuations gives rise to a rich spectrum of high- and low-energy fixed points. The pivotal role played by Yukawa couplings is emphasized. Necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotic safety of gauge theories are also derived, in conjunction with strict no go theorems. Implications for phase diagrams of gauge theories and physics beyond the Standard Model are indicated.

description: We derive the fully time-dependent solution to a run-and-tumble model for a particle which has tumbling restricted to the boundaries of a one-dimensional interval. This is achieved through a field-theoretic perturbative framework by exploiting an elegant underlying structure of the perturbation theory. We calculate the particle densities, currents and variance as well as characteristics of the boundary tumbling. The analytical findings, in agreement with Monte-Carlo simulations, show how the particle densities are linked to the scale of diffusive fluctuations at the boundaries. The generality of our approach suggests it could be readily applied to similar problems described by Fokker-Planck equations containing localised reaction terms.

description: Бронхиальная астма (БА) является одной из самых распространенных нозологий среди респираторных заболеваний, с неуклонной тенденцией роста заболеваемости, прогрессирующим течением, высоким ростом утраты трудоспособности и инвалидизации, значительными финансовыми затратами, снижением качества жизни пациентов. В статье представлен клинический случай пациентки с диагнозом бронхиальной астмы с гиперчувствительностью к нестероидным противовоспалительным препаратам (НПВП), с поздним дебютом. Для верификации диагноза БА был выполнен комплекс обязательных и дополнительных методов диагностики, включающих сбор анамнеза, данные физикального осмотра, лабораторные (в том числе, IgE в сыворотке крови, аллергопробы: бытовые и эпидермальные антигены), инструментальные (рентгенография органов грудной клетки, пазух носа; спирометрия с пробой с бронхолитиками) методы. В результате проведенного обследования была выявлена непереносимость НПВП, хронический гайморит (который не имел адекватного оперативного лечения), сниженные показатели спирометрического исследования, отрицательные результаты аллергопроб, наличие тяжелых обострений бронхиальной астмы более одного раза в год, использование ингаляционных глюкокортикостероидов (ИГКС) с неудовлетворительным контролем БА. У большинства пациентов, страдающие БА, не достигается целевой уровень контроля, как представлено в нашем клиническом случае. В тоже время, при применении ИГКС и бронходилататоров посредством небулайзера, отмечалась положительная динамика состояния пациентки. Применение небулайзерной терапии позволило в дальнейшем снизить дозу ИГКС, появился значительный положительный стабильный эффект. Это позволяет сделать вывод о целесообразности их назначении при стартовой базисной терапии. Мы считаем, что если пациенту с БА, применять ИГКС в комбинациях с бронхолитиками посредством небулайзера, то можно избежать высоких доз ИГКС. Таким образом, будет достигнуто снижение частоты возникновения побочных эффектов и их последствий. Это позволит ускорить процесс купирования обострения, объективно улучшит состояние больного и его качество жизни, снизит количество обострений и пребывание пациента в стационаре. Небулайзерная терапия ИГКС, в данном клиническом случае, явилась более эффективной для использования в качестве базисной терапии среднетяжелой формы БА при недостаточной эффективности ранее проводимой ингаляционной терапии порошковыми формами ИГКС.The nebulizer therapy of IGCS, in this clinical case, was more effective for use as a basic treatment for middle forms of asthma with the insufficient effectiveness of previously performed inhalation therapy with powder forms of IGCs.

description: This thesis examined repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation’s parameters and scheduling to optimise its efficacy and efficiency in treating depression. Depression is a common mental illness that often presents with anxiety symptoms, both of which can be difficult to treat. rTMS is an evidence-based and non-invasive therapy for so-called treatment-resistant depression. This research contributed to the appreciation of rTMS’s efficacy in treating anxiety symptoms comorbid in depression. To improve rTMS’s antidepressant efficacy and efficiency, a large-scale multi-site clinical trial was conducted, which contributed to the evidence base supporting the accelerated application of a novel, time-efficient form of rTMS called theta-burst stimulation.

description: Of the various energy conditions which can be assumed when studying mathematical general relativity, intuitively the simplest is the weak energy condition $μ\geq 0$ which simply states that the observed mass-energy density must be non-negative. This energy condition has not received as much attention as the so-called dominant energy condition. When the natural question of the Penrose inequality in the context of the weak energy condition arose, we could not find any results in the literature, and it was not immediately clear whether the inequality would hold, even in spherical symmetry. This led us to constructing a spherically symmetric asymptotically flat initial data set satisfying the weak energy condition which violates the "usual" formulations of the Penrose conjecture. The construction itself is quite elementary. However, the consequences of the counterexample are quite interesting. The Penrose inequality was conjectured by Penrose in \cite{Penrose} using certain heuristic arguments which, as we discuss, continue to hold in the case of the weak energy condition. Yet, a counter example exists. Moreover, the methods developed naturally led to the construction of a counter example to the positive mass theorem assuming the weak energy condition. The counter example can be constructed to be diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$ and to contain no minimal surfaces and no future apparent horizons.

description: Инфаркт миокарда в нашей стране остается ведущей медико-социальной проблемой и причиной смертности взрослого и пожилого населения. Развитие заболевания обусловлено не только атеросклеротическими процессами, возрастом, но и нарушением ритмов артериального давления, частоты сердечных сокращений. Однако рассогласованных этих биоритмов у пожилых пациентов с инфарктом миокарда практически не изучено. Цель настоящей работы – анализ суточного профиля АД и нарушений синхронизации циркадианных биоритмов АД и ЧСС у пожилых пациентов с АГ и ИМ в анамнезе. Материал и методы: Проведено клиническое обследование 183 больных ИМ в возрасте 60 – 74 года с оценкой нарушений циркадианных ритмов пульсового артериального давления и частоты сердечных сокращений по результатам суточного мониторирования артериального давления аппаратом «SpaceLabsMedical». На основе полученных данных выполнен расчет акрофазы, ортофазы, периода и амплитуды пульсового артериального давления и частоты сердечных сокращений, определение суточного профиля артериального давления. Результаты: Установлено превалирование среди больных инфарктом миокарда лиц с нарушенным суточным профилем артериального давления и частоты сердечных сокращений. Выявленные нарушения способствуют развитию инфаркта миокарда и необходимо учитывать при диагностике и лечении данных пациентов. Заключение.

description: A generalisation of Scott's information systems \cite{sco82} is presented that captures exactly all L-domains. The global consistency predicate in Scott's definition is relativised in such a way that there is a consistency predicate for each atomic proposition (token) saying which finite sets of such statements express information that is consistent with the given statement. It is shown that the states of such generalised information systems form an L-domain, and that each L-domain can be generated in this way, up to isomorphism. Moreover, the equivalence of the category of generalised information systems with the category of L-domains is derived. In addition, it will be seen that from every generalised information system capturing an algebraic bounded-complete domain a corresponding Scott information system can be obtained in an easy and natural way, and vice versa; similarly for Hoofman's continuous information systems \cite{ho93} and the continuous bounded-complete domains captured by them; for Chen and Jung's disjunctive propositional logic \cite{cj06} and algebraic L-domains (as well as for Wang and Li's \cite{wll20} finitary version and Lawson-compact algebraic L-domains); and for Wang and Li's conjunctive sequent calculi \cite{wlbc20} and proper continuous bounded-complete domains. The proofs always contain syntactic translations between the logical calculi involved.

description: Knowledge graphs have gained increasing popularity in the last decade in science and technology. However, knowledge graphs are currently relatively simple to moderate semantic structures that are mainly a collection of factual statements. Question answering (QA) benchmarks and systems were so far mainly geared towards encyclopedic knowledge graphs such as DBpedia and Wikidata. We present SciQA a scientific QA benchmark for scholarly knowledge. The benchmark leverages the Open Research Knowledge Graph (ORKG) which includes almost 170,000 resources describing research contributions of almost 15,000 scholarly articles from 709 research fields. Following a bottom-up methodology, we first manually developed a set of 100 complex questions that can be answered using this knowledge graph. Furthermore, we devised eight question templates with which we automatically generated further 2465 questions, that can also be answered with the ORKG. The questions cover a range of research fields and question types and are translated into corresponding SPARQL queries over the ORKG. Based on two preliminary evaluations, we show that the resulting SciQA benchmark represents a challenging task for next-generation QA systems. This task is part of the open competitions at the 22nd International Semantic Web Conference 2023 as the Scholarly Question Answering over Linked Data (QALD) Challenge.

description: We extend Laughlin's magnetic-flux-threading argument to the quantized thermal Hall effect. A proper analogue of Laughlin's adiabatic magnetic-flux threading process for the case of the thermal Hall effect is given in terms of an external gravitational field. From the perspective of the edge theories of quantum Hall systems, the quantized thermal Hall effect is closely tied to the breakdown of large diffeomorphism invariance, that is, a global gravitational anomaly. In addition, we also give an argument from the bulk perspective in which a free energy, decomposed into its Fourier modes, is adiabatically transferred under an adiabatic process involving external gravitational perturbations.

description: En la presente investigación se propuso analizar el proceso de aprendizaje del concepto de proporcionalidad en estudiantes de 7° de la Institución Educativa Gonzalo Restrepo Jaramillo (Medellín, Antioquia), cuando se enfrentaron a un conjunto de tareas que se diseñaron en la Plataforma Edmodo, la cual se considera como una alternativa innovadora que ayuda a orientar los procesos de aprendizaje de manera lúdica, cooperativa e interactiva. Las orientaciones epistemológicas, ontológicas y semióticas que se utilizaron en la investigación son propuestas desde una perspectiva sociocultural de la educación. En especial, por algunas ideas sobre los procesos de objetivación, actividad y medios semióticos de objetivación que se proponen en la teoría de la objetivación (Radford, 2003, 2006, 2013, 2014, 2020). Estas orientaciones se utilizaron para reflexionar alrededor de los procesos de aprendizaje del concepto de proporcionalidad. La investigación es de tipo cualitativo (Hernández et al., 2014) y se emplea de manera específica el modelo de investigación acción pedagógica (Retrepo, 2006). El proceso de creación de las técnicas e instrumentos, las categorías y variables, las fases y el análisis de la investigación se realizó teniendo en cuenta estas orientaciones metodológicas. En la actividad matemática que movilizaron las estudiantes se observó cómo ellas crean sentidos, usos y significados sobre el concepto de proporcionalidad cuando se enfrentaron a un conjunto de tareas que se diseñaron en la plataforma Edmodo

description: Offering the potential of a cure for patients with haematological cancers, haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an intensive and debilitating treatment that is often distressing and detrimental for patient’s physical, social, functional and emotional quality of life. Whilst a range of psychological interventions have been trialled in oncology treatment settings to support patients, there is limited research assessing their utility for HSCT patients. As such, this thesis aimed to investigate whether psychological interventions tailored to the needs and capacity of patients at different phases of the transplant process improves patient coping, psychological distress and QoL?

description: We extend Fedosov deformation quantization to general contact manifolds. Unlike the case of symplectic manifolds, not every classical observable on a contact manifold is generally quantized. On examination of possible obstructions to quantization, we obtain some new invariants of contact manifolds.

description: PI controllers are the most widespread type of controllers and there is an intuitive understanding that if their gains are sufficiently small and of the correct sign, then they always work. In this paper we try to give some rigorous backing to this claim, under specific assumptions. Let $\bf P$ be a nonlinear system described by $\dot x=f(x,u)$, $y=g(x)$, where the state trajectory $x$ takes values in $R^n$, $u$ and $y$ are scalar and $f,g$ are of class $C^1$. We assume that there is a Lipschitz function $Ξ:[u_{min},u_{max}]\rightarrow R^n$ such that for every constant input $u_0\in[u_{min},u_{max}]$, $Ξ(u_0)$ is an exponentially stable equilibrium point of $\bf P$. We also assume that $G(u)=g(Ξ(u))$, which is the steady state input-output map of $\bf P$, is strictly increasing. Denoting $y_{min}=G(u_{min})$ and $y_{max}=G(u_{max})$, we assume that the reference value $r$ is in $(y_{min},y_{max})$. Our aim is that $y$ should track $r$, i.e., $y\rightarrow r$ as $t\rightarrow\infty$, while the input of $P$ is only allowed to be in $[u_{min},u_{max}]$. For this, we introduce a variation of the integrator, called the saturating integrator, and connect it in feedback with $\bf P$ in the standard way, with gain $k>0$. We show that for any small enough $k$, the closed-loop system is (locally) exponentially stable around an equilibrium point $(Xi(u_r),u_r)$, with a large region of attraction $X_T\subset R^n\times[u_{min},u_{max}]$. When the state $(x(t),u(t))$ of the closed-loop system converges to $(Ξ(u_r),u_r)$, then the tracking error $r-y$ tends to zero. The compact set $X_T$ can be made larger by choosing a larger parameter $T>0$, resulting in smaller $k$.
