description: We study existence and stability of travelling waves for nonlinear convection diffusion equations in the 1-D Euclidean space. The diffusion coefficient depends on the gradient in analogy with the p-Laplacian and may be degenerate. Unconditional stability is established with respect to initial data perturbations in the Lebesgue space of integrable functions.

description: We construct the first example of a $C^*$-algebra $A$ with the properties in the title. This gives a new example of non-nuclear $A$ for which there is a unique $C^*$-norm on $A \otimes A^{op}$. This example is of particular interest in connection with the Connes-Kirchberg problem, which is equivalent to the question whether $C^*({\bb F}_2)$, which is known to have the LLP, also has the WEP. Our $C^*$-algebra $A$ has the same collection of finite dimensional operator subspaces as $C^*({\bb F}_2)$ or $C^*({\bb F}_\infty)$. In addition our example can be made to be quasidiagonal and of similarity degree (or length) 3. In the second part of the paper we reformulate our construction in the more general framework of a $C^*$-algebra that can be described as the \emph{limit both inductive and projective} for a sequence of $C^*$-algebras $(C_n)$ when each $C_n$ is a \emph{subquotient} of $C_{n+1}$. We use this to show that for certain local properties of injective (non-surjective) $*$-homomorphisms, there are $C^*$-algebras for which the identity map has the same properties as the $*$-homomorphisms.

description: Optical activity is the ability of chiral materials to rotate linearly-polarized (LP) electromagnetic waves. Because of their intrinsic asymmetry, traditional chiral molecules usually lack isotropic performance, or at best only possess a weak form of chirality. Here we introduce a knotted chiral meta-molecule that exhibits optical activity corresponding to a 90° polarization rotation of the incident waves. More importantly, arising from the continuous multi-fold rotational symmetry of the chiral torus knot structure, the observed polarization rotation behavior is found to be independent of how the incident wave is polarized. In other words, the proposed chiral knot structure possesses two-dimensional (2-D) isotropic optical activity as illustrated in Fig. 1, which has been experimentally validated in the microwave spectrum. The proposed chiral torus knot represents the most optically active meta-molecule reported to date that is intrinsically isotropic to the incident polarization.

description: In a recent paper [S. Mandal et al., Phys. Rev. E 88, 022129 (2013)] the nature of spatial correlations of plasticity in hard sphere glasses was addressed both via computer simulations and in experiments. It was found that the experimentally obtained correlations obey a power law whereas the correlations from simulations are better fitted by an exponential decay. We here provide direct evidence--- via simulations of a hard sphere glass in 2D---that this discrepancy is a consequence of the finite system size in the 3D simulations. By extending the study to a 2D soft disk model at zero temperature, the robustness of the power-law decay in sheared amorphous solids is underlined. Deviations from a power law occur when either reducing the packing fraction towards the supercooled regime in the case of hard spheres or changing the dissipation mechanism from contact dissipation to a mean-field type drag for the case of soft disks.

description: To plot a circle accurately, the circle is divided into four quadrants, leveraging its symmetry. Starting with the first quadrant, calculations are made for points along the circle's edge. The initial point is set at (0, r) with a decision parameter dp. As the algorithm progresses, points are updated based on this parameter until x ≥ yPoints are then transformed to the other three quadrants using symmetry:Second Quadrant: Reflect over the y-axis.Third Quadrant: Reflect over both axes.Fourth Quadrant: Reflect over the x-axis.Combining these points provides a complete representation of the circle.

description: We present here an overview of our basic understanding and recent developments on spacetime singularities in the Einstein theory of gravity. Several issues related to physical significance and implications of singularities are discussed. The nature and existence of singularities are considered which indicate the formation of super ultra-dense regions in the universe as predicted by the general theory of relativity. Such singularities develop during the gravitational collapse of massive stars and in cosmology at the origin of the universe. Possible astrophysical implications of the occurrence of singularities in the spacetime universe are indicated. We discuss in some detail the profound and key fundamental issues that the singularities give rise to, such as the cosmic censorship and predictability in the universe, naked singularities in gravitational collapse and their relevance in black hole physics today, and their astrophysical implications in modern relativistic astrophysics and cosmology.

How Advance Sales can Reduce Profits: When to Buy, When to Sell, and What Price to Charge

description: A consumer who wants to consume a good in a particular period may nevertheless attempt to buy it earlier if he is concerned that in delaying he would find the good already sold. This paper considers a model in which the good may be offered in two periods; the period in which all consumers most value the good (period 2), and an earlier period (period 1). Examining the profit-maximizing strategy of the firm under unbounded demand, we find that even with no cost of making the product available early, the firm does not profit, and usually loses, by making the product available early. Interestingly, the price that maximizes profits induces all arrivals to occur early, or all arrivals to occur late, depending on the parameters. The firm would not set a price which induces consumers to arrive in both periods. In particular, if the firm controls the penalty for arriving early, then it should set a high penalty so that no one arrives early. The Nash equilibrium behavior of consumers, when deciding if and when to arrive is more complicated than one may suppose, and can generate some unexpected behavior. For example, when there is unbounded demand, most potential consumers decide not to arrive at all. Additionally, the arrival rate may decline with the surplus a person gets from buying the good. Surprisingly, we find that an increase in the number of units for sale increases the number of consumers who arrive early. Moreover, we find that the profit-maximizing price increases with the number of units offered for sale. This too is unexpected as an increase in supply often results in price reduction. In our case, an increase in the number of units on sale also increases demand, and the seller may profit by increasing the price. In the single-unit case, we give closed solutions for the equilibrium customer behavior and profit-maximizing firm strategy and conduct sensitivity analysis.

description: Multi-band superconductivity in topological semimetals are the paradigms of unconventional superconductors. Their exotic gap structures and topological properties have fascinated searching for material realizations and applications. In this paper, we focus on triple point fermions, a new type of band crossings, and we claim that their superconductivity uniquely stabilizes spin-triplet pairing. Unlike conventional superconductors and other multi band superconductors, such triplet superconductivity is the novel phenomena of triple point fermions where the spin-singlet pairing is strictly forbidden in the on-site interaction due to the Fermi statistics. We find that two distinct triplet superconductors, characterized by the presence and absence of time-reversal symmetry, are allowed which in principle can be controlled by tuning the chemical potential. For the triplet superconductor with time-reversal symmetry, we show that topologically protected nodal lines are realized. In contrast, for time-reversal broken case, the complication of topologically protected Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces emerges. Our theoretical study provides a new guidance for searching triplet superconductivities and their exotic implications.

description: KIC 9406652 is a remarkable variable star in the Kepler field of view that shows both very rapid oscillations and long term outbursts in its light curve. We present an analysis of the light curve over quarters 1 to 15 and new spectroscopy that indicates that the object is a cataclysmic variable with an orbital period of 6.108 hours. However, an even stronger signal appears in the light curve periodogram for a shorter period of 5.753 hours, and we argue that this corresponds to the modulation of flux from the hot spot region in a tilted, precessing disk surrounding the white dwarf star. We present a preliminary orbital solution from radial velocity measurements of features from the accretion disk and the photosphere of the companion. We use a Doppler tomography algorithm to reconstruct the disk and companion spectra, and we also consider how these components contribute to the object's spectral energy distribution from ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths. This target offers us a remarkable opportunity to investigate disk processes during the high mass transfer stage of evolution in cataclysmic variables.

description: Nisin is a naturally occurring bioactive small peptide produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis and belongs to the Type A (I) lantibiotics. Due to its potent antimicrobial activity, it has been broadly employed to preserve various food materials as well as to combat a variety of microbial pathogens. The present review discusses the antimicrobial properties of nisin and different types of their derivatives employed to treat microbial pathogens with a detailed underlying mechanism of action. Several alternative strategies such as combination, conjugation, and nanoformulations have been discussed in order to address several issues such as rapid degradation, instability, and reduced activity due to the various environmental factors that arise in the applications of nisin. Furthermore, the evolutionary relationship of many nisin genes from different nisin-producing bacterial species has been investigated. A detailed description of the natural and bioengineered nisin variants, as well as the underlying action mechanisms, has also been provided. The chemistry used to apply nisin in conjugation with natural or synthetic compounds as a synergetic mode of antimicrobial action has also been thoroughly discussed. The current review will be useful in learning about recent and past research that has been performed on nisin and its derivatives as antimicrobial agents.

description: Food forests are multifunctional perennial polyculture systems that use the structure and functions of a natural forest as a model to cultivate a diverse range of edible plants. They represent an agroforestry practice that has the potential to combine the ecological, social-cultural, and economic benefits of forest ecosystems and agricultural systems in one area. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of food forests in the temperate climate of Europe by presenting collected data from 30 food forests, expert interviews, and site visits. The findings highlight the potential but also the limitations of food forests to create a more sustainable food system while contributing to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). A total of 9 SDGs was found to be positively influenced by the effects of food forests, such as soil, water and biodiversity conservation, adaption to climate change and contribution to community well-being. Additionally, the study addresses challenges related to management, social acceptance, and economic efficiency of food forests, and provides guidance for financing and scaling up these systems, as well as promoting their wider adoption into mainstream. The information gathered in this study can be used by food forest entrepreneurs to improve their planning and management processes, enabling them to maximize the benefits of this innovative and promising approach to agriculture.

description: Much has been written about the costs and benefits of using pre-coordinated headings when indexing documents. However, to date there have been few attempts at specifying a formal semantics for such systems, and little study of how well the intended meanings of these headings correspond to the meanings understood by both end users and professional library staff.
 In this paper I discuss some possible interpretations of pre-coordinated headings in the Library of Congress Subject Headings. I review previous studies of end user understanding of subdivided subject headings. These studies raise questions as to how well the intended meanings of these headings are understood by professional librarians and end users. I note methodological issues that may limit the validity of the results and suggest follow-up studies to address these limitations.
 Finally, I suggest extensions to the W3C ontology for Simple Knowledge Organization Systems (SKOS) to support modeling subdivided headings. I also suggest how concepts modeled using these extensions can be related to classes in a corresponding ontology.

 On each sampling date, we collected 3 1-L samples and transported them to the lab on ice. We used unfiltered, room temperature subsamples to determine alkalinity with a Mettler DL12 titrator (Mettler-Toledo Inc., Columbus, Ohio). We filtered additional subsamples through a Gelman A/E, GFF, 0.7-μm nominal pore size to determine water chemistry according to standard procedures (see Battle and Golladay 2001). We measured dissolved organic carbon (DOC) with a Shimadzu TOC-5050 analyzer (Shimadzu Scientific Instruments, Kyoto, Japan). We determined NH4-N, NOx-N (NO3-N + NO2-N), and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) with a Lachat Quikchem 8000 flow-injection auto-analyzer using colorimetric methods (Lachat Instruments, Milwaukee, MN). We determined dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) concentrations by summing the concentrations of NH4–N and NOX–N. Here, we report dissolved the dissolved molar ratios of C:N (i.e., DOC:DIN), C:P (i.e., DOC:SRP), and N:P (i.e., DIN:SRP).

Our results are improvements of previous patented designs based on two and three ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLC), and are suited for broad-band hyperspectral imaging, or multichannel spectroscopy applications. We have realized and implemented one design using two FLCs and compare the spectral range and precision with previous designs.

Prevalence of Complex Organic Molecules in Starless and Prestellar Cores within the Taurus Molecular Cloud

description: The detection of complex organic molecules (COMs) toward dense, collapsing prestellar cores has sparked interest in the fields of astrochemistry and astrobiology, yet the mechanisms for COM formation are still debated. It was originally believed that COMs initially form in ices which are then irradiated by UV radiation from the surrounding interstellar radiation field as well as forming protostars and subsequently photodesorbed into the gas-phase. However, starless and prestellar cores do not have internal protostars to heat-up and sublimate the ices. Alternative models using chemical energy have been developed to explain the desorption of COMs, yet in order to test these models robust measurements of COM abundances are needed toward representative samples of cores. We've conducted a large-sample survey of 31 starless and prestellar cores in the Taurus Molecular Cloud, detecting methanol (CH$_3$OH) in 100$\%$ of the cores targeted and acetaldehyde (CH$_3$CHO) in 70$\%$. At least two transition lines of each molecule were measured, allowing us to place tight constraints on excitation temperature, column density and abundance. Additional mapping of methanol revealed extended emission, detected down to A$_\mathrm{V}$ as low as $\sim$ 3 mag. We find complex organic molecules are detectable in the gas-phase and are being formed early, at least hundreds of thousands of years prior to star and planet formation. The precursor molecule, CH$_3$OH, may be chemically linked to the more complex CH$_3$CHO, however higher spatial resolution maps are needed to further test chemical models.

description: Temporal offsets between the time series of solar activity indicators provide important clues regarding the physical processes responsible for the cyclic variability in the solar atmosphere. Hysteresis patterns generated between any two indicators were popularly used to study their morphological features and further to understand their inter relationships. We use time series of different solar indicators to understand the possible cause-and-effect criteria between their respective source regions. Sensitivity of the upper atmosphere to the activity underneath might play an important role in introducing different evolutionary patterns in the profiles of solar indicators and in turn cause temporal offsets between them. Limitations in the observations may also cause relative shifts in the time series.

description: Using the fact that $Π$-invertible sheaves can be interpreted as locally free sheaves of modules for the super skew field $\mathbb{D}$, we give a new construction of the $Π$-projective superspace $\mathbb{P}^n_{Π, B}$ over affine $k$ superschemes $B$, $k$ an algebraically closed field. We characterize morphisms into $\mathbb{P}^n_{Π, B}$ and give a new interpretation of the composition of $Π$-invertible sheaves in terms of the algebra of $\mathbb{D}$.

description: Part of a collection of 21 letters sent by William Powell Frith to his great nephew Henry Keyworth Raine, dating from March 16, 1890 to March 29, 1908. William Powell Frith (1819-1909), painter of historical and genre works, including large canvases such as Derby Day (1858). “The Race for Wealth” comprises five paintings, all based around a fictional central character, a corrupt financier called The Spider, and all dealing with the theme of reckless financial speculation. Inspired by characters found in the novels of Charles Dickens and Anthony Trollope, The Spider persuades his victims to invest in dubious schemes. Often compared with Hogarth’s “The Rake’s Progress,” “The Race for Wealth” portrays The Spider’s initial success, his unmasking, his trial, and ends with his imprisonment. This letter shows praise from William to Henry on his latest work, and notes that even though Henry is a relative, that did not influence his judgement.

description: This thesis presents a rigorous mathematical and computational framework for transforming a finite sequence of musical notes and their durations into an audio file. We introduce a piecewise function S(t) that serves as a mathematical representation of the audio signal corresponding to the given musical notes. The study delves into the specifics of constructing S(t) using sine wave frequencies, with an example illustrating how to calculate the values of each sine wave segment for a particular note and duration. The utility of the method is demonstrated through Python-based computational simulations, which validate the theoretical framework and offer practical insights into audio signal generation.

description: The Frobenius characteristic of $Lie_n,$ the representation of the symmetric group $S_n$ afforded by the multilinear component of the free Lie algebra, is known to satisfy many interesting plethystic identities. In this paper we prove a conjecture of Richard Stanley establishing the plethystic inverse of the sum $\sum_{n\geq 0} Lie_{2n+1}$ of the odd Lie characteristics. We obtain an apparently new plethystic decomposition of the regular representation of $S_n$ in terms of irreducibles indexed by hooks, and the Lie representations. We determine the plethystic inverse of the alternating sum of the odd Lie characteristics.

Leveraging GWAS and the Transcriptome to Identify Potential Causal Genes in Osteoporosis
Creators: name: Abood, Abdullah
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Osteoporosis is the most common disease affecting bone and is considered a major societal health problem implicating the lives of millions of individuals in the United States and across the globe. Over the past 15 years, Genome-wide Association Studies (GWASs) have identified a large number of variants influencing Bone Mineral Density (BMD), the single best predictor of osteoporosis fracture. Post-GWAS efforts are attempting to identify the genes responsible for the effects of the reported variants. Most of the variants identified by GWAS exert their impact on bone by altering gene regulation. In my dissertation work, I aimed to prioritize previously identified genetic associations, from humans, using novel, unbiased approaches. In the first chapter, I highlighted how molecular “-omics” data and cutting-edge analytical approaches are being used to facilitate gene discovery from GWAS and “make sense” of these studies. I also discussed resources that are needed in the bone field and novel approaches that have been used in my graduate work and the potential for their improvement in coming years. In the second chapter, I focused on identifying potentially causal long non-coding RNAs, an understudied population of non-coding RNAs in the context of bone and osteoporosis. I was able to identify eight lncRNAs as potentially causal in osteoporosis and are candidates for experimental follow-up studies. In the third chapter, I leveraged long-read proteogenomics to identify potentially causal protein-coding isoforms in osteoporosis. I provided a list of potentially causal isoforms and functionally validated TPM2 in vitro. Finally, I shared my final thoughts on the state of the field and future directions for the next generation of systems geneticists who aspire to provide treatment for osteoporosis. Ultimately, this dissertation contributed to our understanding of the genetic architecture of osteoporosis-related traits and presented new approaches to follow-up on GWAS studies more generally.
The Concept of πάθος and the Division of Pleasure in Plato’s Philebus
Creators: name: Qianxun Feng
Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2023

description: In this paper, I explore the methodological principle of dividing pleasure in the Philebus. While existing literature primarily focuses on the application of the Promethean method (16d-17a) in this division, I propose a novel approach. By conceptualizing pleasure as πάθος (meaning “experience”), Socrates constantly divides pleasure based on features of πάθος, as suggested by the guideline in 31b. Epistemologically, πάθος refers to multiple physiological and psychological processes, which forms a set of clear criteria to distinguish different kinds of pleasure to construct a robust taxonomy. Metaphysically, drawing from common usages of πάθος, Plato innovatively establishes its sense as “to be acted upon,” which unifies diverse kinds of pleasure as a passive motion of the soul. Therefore, I conclude that πάθος serves as a methodological unity guiding the division of pleasure, which is rooted in its ontological function of collecting pleasures as a passive kind of coming-to-be (γένεσις).

description: A radiofrequency quadrupole ion trap system for use with a multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrograph (MRTOF) for short-lived nuclei has been developed. The trap system consists of two different parts, an asymmetric taper trap and a flat trap. The ions are cooled to a sufficient small bunch for precise mass measurement with MRTOF in only 2 ms cooling time in the flat trap, then orthogonally ejected to the MRTOF for mass analysis. A trapping efficiency of ~27% for 23Na+ and ~5.1% for 7Li+ has been achieved.

description: Water chemistry data from the Ichawaynochaway Creek drainage. On each sampling date, we collected 3 1-L samples and transported them to the lab on ice. We used unfiltered, room temperature subsamples to determine alkalinity with a Mettler DL12 titrator (Mettler-Toledo Inc., Columbus, Ohio). We filtered additional subsamples through a Gelman A/E, GFF, 0.7-μm nominal pore size to determine water chemistry according to standard procedures (see Battle and Golladay 2001). We measured dissolved organic carbon (DOC) with a Shimadzu TOC-5050 analyzer (Shimadzu Scientific Instruments, Kyoto, Japan). We determined NH4-N, NOx-N (NO3-N + NO2-N), and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) with a Lachat Quikchem 8000 flow-injection auto-analyzer using colorimetric methods (Lachat Instruments, Milwaukee, MN). We determined dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) concentrations by summing the concentrations of NH4–N and NOX–N. Here, we report dissolved the dissolved molar ratios of C:N (i.e., DOC:DIN), C:P (i.e., DOC:SRP), and N:P (i.e., DIN:SRP).

Geodesic continued fractions and LLL
Creators: name: Beukers, Frits
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Number Theory (math.NT)
subject: FOS: Mathematics
subject: 11J70

description: We discuss a proposal for a continued fraction-like algorithm to determine simultaneous rational approximations to $d$ real numbers $α_1,\ldots,α_d$. It combines an algorithm of Hermite and Lagarias with ideas from LLL-reduction. We dynamically LLL-reduce a quadratic form with parameter $t$ as $t\downarrow0$. The new idea in this paper is that checking the LLL-conditions consists of solving linear equations in $t$.
3D geometric moment invariants from the point of view of the classical invariant theory

description: The aim of this paper is to clear up the problem of the connection between the 3D geometric moments invariants and the invariant theory, considering a problem of describing of the 3D geometric moments invariants as a problem of the classical invariant theory. Using the remarkable fact that the groups $SO(3)$ and $SL(2)$ are locally isomorphic, we reduced the problem of deriving 3D geometric moments invariants to the well-known problem of the classical invariant theory. We give a precise statement of the 3D geometric invariant moments computation, introducing the notions of the algebras of simultaneous 3D geometric moment invariants, and prove that they are isomorphic to the algebras of joint $SL(2)$-invariants of several binary forms. To simplify the calculating of the invariants we proceed from an action of Lie group $SO(3)$ to an action of its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. The author hopes that the results will be useful to the researchers in the fields of image analysis and pattern recognition.
