description: Part V of the second edition of Pierre Rémond de Montmort's Essay d'analyse sur les jeux de hazard published in 1713 contains correspondence on probability problems between Montmort and Nicolaus Bernoulli. This correspondence begins in 1710. The last published letter, dated November 15, 1713, is from Montmort to Nicolaus Bernoulli. There is some discussion of the strategy of play in the card game Le Her and a bit of news that Montmort's friend Waldegrave in Paris was going to take care of the printing of the book. From earlier correspondence between Bernoulli and Montmort, it is apparent that Waldegrave had also analyzed Le Her and had come up with a mixed strategy as a solution. He had also suggested working on the "problem of the pool," or what is often called Waldegrave's problem. The Universitätsbibliothek Basel contains an additional forty-two letters between Bernoulli and Montmort written after 1713, as well as two letters between Bernoulli and Waldegrave. The letters are all in French, and here we provide translations of key passages. The trio continued to discuss probability problems, particularly Le Her which was still under discussion when the Essay d'analyse went to print. We describe the probability content of this body of correspondence and put it in its historical context. We also provide a proper identification of Waldegrave based on manuscripts in the Archives nationales de France in Paris.

Assessing Knowledge of the Microbiome’s Role in Obesity Prevention within Minority Communities: Protocol to Guide Focus Group Research
Creators: name: Pardo-Montez, Monique
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Background: Disparities in the prevalence of obesity in ethnic minority populations are apparent in early preschool years. Emerging evidence states that the early life gut microbiome is an important regulator of the biologic pathways contributing to the development of obesity. Furthermore, manipulating the gut microbiota may be a viable intervention leading to weight loss and obesity prevention.
Purpose: The aim of this protocol is to guide the development of qualitative research in order to assess minority communities’ understanding of the early life microbiome and its role in obesity prevention. 
Methods: This study will be carried out through collaboration with the FYI: Feed Your Infant study, Dr. Eric Hodges’ TraCS 2k grant-funded project. Research goals are to reach out to minority communities through a process called intervention mapping to understand whether there is a community interest in obesity prevention in infancy and toddlerhood. The intersection of these two studies is an effective way to garner data about feeding experiences, obesity concerns, and potential interventions. Knowledge of the microbiome will be assessed in four different focus groups: two Latinx and two African American groups with five people attending each group. The location of the focus groups will be in Durham and Sanford, North Carolina.
Conclusions: Data from the integration of this and the FYI study will provide insights regarding efforts to enhance participation among minority families in a planned NIH R01 obesity prevention trial.

A Review of Needed Supports and Resources for Adolescent Parents: Clinical Implications for Future Programs
Creators: name: Swink, Emily
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Adolescent parents face developmental, physical, mental, and social challenges that are different than their non-parent peers and older-aged parents. Not only are children of teenage parents more likely to become teen parents, but there are serious medical concerns for both teen parents and their infants. This population requires accessible and extensive supports and resources to help mitigate health disparities and improve maternal and infant/child outcomes. 

I have written a non-comprehensive literature review that explores various programs and interventions targeted for adolescent and young aged (AYA) parents. This review focuses on the support for programs addressing social-emotional needs, educational attainment, and repeat pregnancy prevention for AYA parents. To parallel this evidence-based literature, I outlined current supports and resources available to AYA parents in Orange County, North Carolina. 

Traditionally, parents are given a handful of pamphlets on specific matters regarding maternal and infant/child needs when they leave the hospital with doses of education provided at follow-up pediatric and maternal healthcare appointments. To address the need for accessibility, I created a website titled New Parent Knowledge: Resources for Caregiver(s) & Baby to engage parents on various topics. These include: Parent and Caregiver Information, Baby Needs, and Orange Co. Resources. The purpose is to provide individuals with a “one-stop-shop” for reliable and relevant health education and resources that can reduce the time spent researching these topics and increase time addressing their individualized needs. https://newparentknowledge.web.unc.edu/

description: The goal of this project is to construct a mitochondrial genome library including 10,000 animal species accurately, rapidly and cheaply. We have developed a novel high-throughput sequencing approach to constructing mitogenomes for pooled animals without DNA enrichment or amplification. A new informatics pipeline was employed to reconstruct each individual mitogenome. The development of this novel approach was supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China through the National High-tech Research and Development Project (863) of China [2012AA021601]; and by the National Science and Technology Support Program of China [2012BAK11B06-4].

description: We directly trace the near- and mid-infrared transmission change of a VO$_2$ thin film during an ultrafast insulator-to-metal transition triggered by high-field multi-terahertz transients. Non-thermal switching into a metastable metallic state is governed solely by the amplitude of the applied terahertz field. In contrast to resonant excitation below the threshold fluence, no signatures of excitonic self-trapping are observed. Our findings are consistent with the generation of spatially separated charge pairs and a cooperative transition into a delocalized metallic state by THz field-induced tunneling. The tunneling process is a condensed-matter analogue of the Schwinger effect in nonlinear quantum electrodynamics. We find good agreement with the pair production formula by replacing the Compton wavelength with an electronic correlation length of 2.1 $Å$.
Low temperature thermodynamics of multi-flavored hardcore bosons by the Brückner approach

description: Dynamic correlations of quantum magnets provide valuable information. However, especially at finite temperature, many observations, e.g., by inelastic neutron scattering experiments, are not yet quantitatively understood. Generically, the elementary excitations of gapped quantum magnets are hardcore bosons because no two of them can occupy the same site. The previously introduced diagrammatic Brückner approach dealt with hardcore bosons of a single flavor at finite temperature. Here, this approach is extended to hardcore bosons of several kinds (flavors). The approach based on ladder diagrams is gauged with so far unknown rigorous results for the thermal occupation function of multiflavored hardcore bosons in one dimension with nearest-neighbor hopping. For low temperatures, it works very well. Furthermore, we study to which extent the approach is a conserving approximation. Empirical evidence shows that this is true only in the single-flavor case.

Food Therapy in Contemporary Japanese Food Films
Creators: name: Farmer, Tatiana
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: We have all heard the phrase, “eating our troubles away.” What if consuming a well-prepared meal could really be the answer to all of your problems? What if food could heal you? Many Japanese food films created in the early 2000s explore this idea. In this thesis, I explore why and how food becomes a mechanism for healing to people in four food films: Kamome Shokudo (2006), Rinko’s Restaurant (2010), Shiawase no Pan (2012), and The Chef of South Polar (2009). Through in-depth film analysis, I discovered three reoccurring themes that are significant in the process of healing: nature, companionship, and magic. I argue throughout the essay that these films created in the early 2000s all reflect on Japan’s “Lost Decade,” a period during the 1990s that witnessed a drastic economic recession, topped with various societal changes and environmental tragedies. The films respond to problems of modernity and mental health that emerged within Japan at that time. Food is not presented as a means of healing tangible illnesses of the body, but instead as being able to heal illnesses of the mind.

An adaptive Ridge procedure for L0 regularization

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Penalized selection criteria like AIC or BIC are among the most popular methods for variable selection. Their theoretical properties have been studied intensively and are well understood, but making use of them in case of high-dimensional data is difficult due to the non-convex optimization problem induced by L0 penalties. An elegant solution to this problem is provided by the multi-step adaptive lasso, where iteratively weighted lasso problems are solved, whose weights are updated in such a way that the procedure converges towards selection with L0 penalties. In this paper we introduce an adaptive ridge procedure (AR) which mimics the adaptive lasso, but is based on weighted Ridge problems. After introducing AR its theoretical properties are studied in the particular case of orthogonal linear regression. For the non-orthogonal case extensive simulations are performed to assess the performance of AR. In case of Poisson regression and logistic regression it is illustrated how the iterative procedure of AR can be combined with iterative maximization procedures. The paper ends with an efficient implementation of AR in the context of least-squares segmentation.
Merging galaxies produce outliers from the Fundamental Metallicity Relation

description: From a large sample of $\approx 170,000$ local SDSS galaxies, we find that the Fundamental Metallicity Relation (FMR) has an overabundance of outliers, compared to what would be expected from a Gaussian distribution of residuals, with significantly lower metallicities than predicted from their stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR). This low-metallicity population has lower stellar masses, bimodial specific SFRs with enhanced star formation within the aperture and smaller half-light radii than the general sample, and is hence a physically distinct population. We show that they are consistent with being galaxies that are merging or have recently merged with a satellite galaxy. In this scenario, low-metallicity gas flows in from large radii, diluting the metallicity of star-forming regions and enhancing the specific SFR until the inflowing gas is processed and the metallicity has recovered. We introduce a simple model in which mergers with a mass ratio larger than a minimum dilute the central galaxy's metallicity by an amount that is proportional to the stellar mass ratio for a constant time, and show that it provides an excellent fit to the distribution of FMR residuals. We find the dilution time-scale to be $τ=1.568_{-0.027}^{+0.029}$ Gyr, the average metallicity depression caused by a 1:1 merger to be $α=0.2480_{-0.0020}^{+0.0017}$ dex and the minimum mass ratio merger that can be discerned from the intrinsic Gaussian scatter in the FMR to be $ξ_\text{min}=0.2030_{-0.0095}^{+0.0127}$ (these are statistical errors only). From this we derive that the average metallicity depression caused by a merger with mass ratio between 1:5 and 1:1 is 0.114 dex.

description: Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in the American men, accounting for 238,590 new diagnoses and 29,720 deaths in 2013. Its incidence is also rising worldwide, especially in Asian countries. Prostate tumors exhibit large variable clinical outcomes, with some patients having>10-year survival, but others, particularly those with an aggressive tumor phenotype, only surviving 2–3 years after diagnosis. Here, we obtained whole-genome sequencing and paired transcriptome data of 65 prostate tumors and paired adjacent benign tissues to give more comprehensive analyses of genetic alterations at both the DNA and RNA level from the same patients are warranted.

description: We study the constraints that electroweak precision data can impose, after the discovery of the Higgs boson by the LHC, on neutrinophilic two-Higgs-doublet models which comprise one extra $SU(2)\times U(1)$ doublet and a new symmetry, namely a spontaneously broken $\mathbb{Z}_2$ or a softly broken global $U(1)$. In these models the extra Higgs doublet, via its very small vacuum expectation value, is the sole responsible for neutrino masses. We find that the model with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry is basically ruled out by electroweak precision data, even if the model is slightly extended to include extra right-handed neutrinos, due to the presence of a very light scalar. While the other model is still perfectly viable, the parameter space is considerably constrained by current data, specially by the $T$ parameter. In particular, the new charged and neutral scalars must have very similar masses.

Stress and First Responders: A review of significance, mental health risk, and treatment strategies
Creators: name: Marissa Millard
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: This review compiles significant literature documenting the occupational health effects of stress on first responders.  A series of situational factors make first responders more susceptible to stress such as their frequent exposure to traumatic events, the susceptibility to do shift work, the long hours worked per shift, and the instability of daily job requirements and expectations.  As a result of the highly stressful environment these individuals face, many may experience fatigue, anxiety, depression, substance abuse and in many cases suicidal ideations and PTSD.  Certain factors may serve to protect first responder individuals from some of these stress effects, such as more years working on the job and camaraderie among their team. Literature discussing management strategies for these mental health ailments offer a variety of treatment solutions, but to date, the body of literature surrounding the first responder population specifically is limited and does not provide sufficient information to guide adequate treatment for these individuals.  There is no question that first responders face stressful situations as a result of their occupational demands, this truth is on display now as the COVID-19 pandemic rages on, and the literature is conclusive that a concerted effort needs to be made to provide better support options and improve cultural perceptions for first responders seeking help.

description: We discuss the rich phase diagram of doped AB2 $t-J$ chains by using data from density matrix renormalization group and exact diagonalization techniques. The $J$ vs $δ$ (hole doping) phase diagram exhibits regions of itinerant ferrimagnetism, incommensurate, resonating valence bond and Nagaoka states, phase separation, and Luttinger liquid (LL) physics. Several features are highlighted, such as the modulated ferrimagnetic structure, the occurrence of Nagaoka spin polarons in the underdoped regime and small values of $J=4t^2/U$, where $t$ is the first-neighbor hopping amplitude and $U$ is the on-site repulsive Coulomb interaction, incommensurate structures with nonzero magnetization, and strong-coupling LL physics in the high-doped regime. We also verify that relevant findings are in agreement with the corresponding findings in square and n-leg ladder lattices. In particular, we mention the instability of Nagaoka ferromagnetism against $J$ and $δ$.

description: We theoretically and numerically study the quantum dynamics of two degenerate optical parametric oscillators with mutual injections. The cavity mode in the optical coupling path between the two oscillator facets is explicitly considered. Stochastic equations for the oscillators and mutual injection path based on the positive $P$ representation are derived. The system of two gradually pumped oscillators with out-of-phase mutual injections is simulated, and its quantum state is investigated. When the incoherent loss of the oscillators other than the mutual injections is small, the squeezed quadratic amplitudes $\hat{p}$ in the oscillators are positively correlated near the oscillation threshold. It indicates finite quantum correlation, estimated via Gaussian quantum discord, and the entanglement between the intracavity subharmonic fields. When the loss in the injection path is low, each oscillator around the phase transition point forms macroscopic superposition even under a small pump noise. It suggests that the squeezed field stored in the low-loss injection path weakens the decoherence in the oscillators.

description: Demographic and behavioral characteristics of journal authors are important indicators of homophily in co-authorship networks. In the presence of correlations between adjacent nodes (assortative mixing), combining the estimation of the individual characteristics and the network structure results in a well-fitting model, which is capable to provide a deep understanding of the linkage between individual and social properties. This paper aims to propose a novel probabilistic model for the joint distribution of nodal properties (authors' demographic and behavioral characteristics) and network structure (co-authorship connections), based on the nodal similarity effect. A Bayesian approach is used to estimate the model parameters, providing insights about the probabilistic properties of the observed data set. After a detailed analysis of the proposed statistical methodology, we illustrate our approach with an empirical analysis of co-authorship of 1007 journal articles indexed in the ISI Web of Science database in the field of neuroscience between 2009 and 2013.

description: In this work, we study a new quintessence model associated with non-Abelian gauge fields, minimally coupled to Einstein gravity. This gauge theory has been recently introduced and studied as an inflationary model, called gauge-flation. Here, however, we are interested in the late time cosmology of the model in the presence of matter and radiation to explain the present time accelerating Universe. During the radiation and matter eras, the gauge field tracks radiation and basically acts like a dark radiation sector. As we approach lower redshifts, the dark component takes the form of a dark energy source which eventually becomes the dominate part of the energy budget of the Universe. Due to the tracking feature of our model, solutions with different initial values are attracted to a common trajectory. The existence of early dark radiation is a robust prediction of our model which contributes to the effective number of relativistic species, $N_{\rm eff}$ and has its own interesting observational features.

description: The Locus Control Region (LCR) requires intronic elements within b-globin transgenes to direct high level expression at all ectopic integration sites. However, these essential intronic elements cannot be transmitted through retrovirus vectors and their deletion may compromise the therapeutic potential for gene therapy. Here, we systematically regenerate functional bglobin intron 2 elements that rescue LCR activity directed by 5′HS3. Evaluation in transgenic mice demonstrates that an Oct-1 binding site and an enhancer in the intron cooperate to increase expression levels from LCR globin transgenes. Replacement of the intronic AT-rich region with the Igμ 3′MAR rescues LCR activity in single copy transgenic mice. Importantly, a combination of the Oct-1 site, Igm 39MAR and intronic enhancer in the BGT158 cassette directs more consistent levels of expression in transgenic mice. By introducing intron-modified transgenes into the same genomic integration site in erythroid cells, we show that BGT158 has the greatest transcriptional induction. 3D DNA FISH establishes that induction stimulates this small 5′HS3 containing transgene and the endogenous locus to spatially reorganize towards more central locations in erythroid nuclei. Electron Spectroscopic Imaging (ESI) of chromatin fibers demonstrates that ultrastructural heterochromatin is primarily perinuclear and does not reorganize. Finally, we transmit intron-modified globin transgenes through insulated self-inactivating (SIN) lentivirus vectors into erythroid cells. We show efficient transfer and robust mRNA and protein expression by the BGT158 vector, and virus titer improvements mediated by the modified intron 2 in the presence of an LCR cassette composed of 5′HS2-4. Our results have important implications for the mechanism of LCR activity at ectopic integration sites. The modified transgenes are the first to transfer intronic elements that potentiate LCR activity and are designed to facilitate correction of hemoglobinopathies using single copy vectors.

description: Observations with the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) indicate a possible small photon signal originating from the dwarf galaxy Reticulum II that exceeds the expected background between 2 GeV and 10 GeV. We have investigated two specific scenarios for annihilating WIMP dark matter within the phenomenological Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (pMSSM) framework as a possible source for these photons. We find that the same parameter ranges in pMSSM as reported by an earlier paper to be consistent with the Galactic center excess, is also consistent with the excess observed in Reticulum II, resulting in a J-factor of $\log_{10}(J(α_{int}=0.5 deg)) \simeq (20.3-20.5)^{+0.2}_{-0.3}$. This J-factor is consistent with $\log_{10}(J(α_{int}=0.5 deg)) = 19.5^{+1.0}_{-0.6}$ GeV$^2$cm$^{-5}$, which is derived using an optimized spherical Jeans analysis of kinematic data obtained from the Michigan/Magellan Fiber System (M2FS).

HIV-1 Nef: At the crossroads

description: The development of anti-virals has blunted the AIDS epidemic in the Western world but globally the epidemic has not been curtailed. Standard vaccines have not worked, and attenuated vaccines are not being developed because of safety concerns. Interest in attenuated vaccines has centered on isolated cases of patients infected with HIV-1 containing a deleted nef gene. Nef is a multifunctional accessory protein that is necessary for full HIV-1 virulence. Unfortunately, some patients infected with the nef-deleted virus eventually lose their CD4+ T cells to levels indicating progression to AIDS. This renders the possibility of an attenuated HIV-1 based solely on a deleted nef remote. In this review we discuss the knowledge gained both from the study of these patients and from in vitro investigations of Nef function to assess the possibility of developing new anti-HIV-1 drugs based on Nef. Specifically, we consider CD4 downregulation, major histocompatibility complex I downregulation, Pak2 activation, and enhancement of virion infectivity. We also consider the recent proposal that simian immunodeficiency viruses are non-pathogenic in their hosts because they have Nefs that downregulate CD3, but HIV-1 is pathogenic because its Nef fails to downregulate CD3. The possibility of incorporating the CD3 downregulation function into HIV-1 Nef as a therapeutic option is also considered. Finally, we conclude that inhibiting the CD4 downregulation function is the most promising Nef-targeted approach for developing a new anti-viral as a contribution to combating AIDS.

description: Primary cultures of rat spermatogenic cells that did not bind to collagen matrices were able to colonize and form mature spermatozoa when transferred to testes of recipient males. Up to 73% of the progeny from matings with recipient males were derived from the transferred spermatogenic cells. Subsequently, two populations of germ cells were obtained by selection on laminin matrices. Both populations expressed the spermatogenic cell marker, DAZL, but not the somatic cell marker, vimentin, The cells that bound to laminin represented ≈5% of the total population and were greatly enriched in ability to colonize a recipient testis, suggesting an enrichment in germ-line stem cells. The colonization potential was maintained for at least 7 days in culture. These cells were subsequently transduced with a lentiviral enhanced GFP reporter vector and then transferred to WT recipient males. After mating, 26 of 44 pups were derived from the cultured donor germ cells, and 13 pups carried the lentiviral transgene. Based on Southern analysis, the transgene was integrated at a different genetic locus in each animal and was transmitted to ≈50% of pups in the F2 generation. Thus, by using these procedures, ≈30% of pups in the F1 generation inherited and stably transmitted a lentiviral transgene that integrated at various genomic sites.

description: We have investigated the molecular basis of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) latency in a tissue culture model and in HIV-infected people. We show that increased levels of Tat, but not Rev, can release the proviruses from latency in U1 cells. The absence of Tat in these cells is manifested by the accumulation of promoter-proximal viral transcripts, whereas the presence of Tat correlates with increased expression of viral proteins and an increase in promoter-distal transcripts. The presence of promoter-proximal transcripts also serves as a marker for latency in humans. We observed the exclusive presence of promoter-proximal viral transcripts in peripheral mononuclear cells from the majority (10/11) of asymptomatic HIV-infected individuals examined. Activation of these cells in vitro, and viremia in vivo, correlated with a switch from promoter-proximal transcription to promoter-distal transcription. These results suggest that the control between latency and replication of HIV in vivo is at the level of transcription elongation.

description: Fermionic natural occupation numbers do not only obey Pauli's exclusion principle, but are even further restricted by so-called generalized Pauli constraints. Such restrictions are particularly relevant whenever they are saturated by given natural occupation numbers $\vecλ=(λ_i)$. For few-site Hubbard models we explore the occurrence of this pinning effect. By varying the on-site interaction $U$ for the fermions we find sharp transitions from pinning of $\vecλ$ to the boundary of the allowed region to nonpinning. We analyze the origin of this phenomenon which turns out be either a crossing of natural occupation numbers $λ_{i}(U), λ_{i+1}(U)$ or a crossing of $N$-particle energies. Furthermore, we emphasize the relevance of symmetries for the occurrence of pinning. Based on recent progress in the field of ultracold atoms our findings suggest an experimental set-up for the realization of the pinning effect.

description: A human T-cell line constitutively expressing the nef gene from the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 SF2 isolate was used to examine the distribution of the Nef protein in the nucleus. High-resolution immunogold labeling/electron microscopic studies with polyclonal anti-Nef antibodies on nef+ and nef- cells revealed that a small fraction of Nef is in the nucleus and it is localized in specific curvilinear tracks that extend between the nuclear envelope and the nucleoplasm. An examination of the sequence of the SF2 nef gene revealed a putative nuclear targeting sequence that was previously found in several other eukaryotic nucleoplasmic proteins. The nuclear localization of Nef suggests a potential nuclear function for this protein. The presence of Nef in distinct nuclear tracks suggests that Nef is transported along a specific pathway that extends from the nuclear envelope into the nucleoplasm. A previous study [Meier, U. T. & Blobel, G. (1992) Cell 70, 127-138] has shown that the nucleolar protein of rat liver cells (Nopp140) shuttles from the nucleolus to the nuclear envelope on distinct tracks. The present study has suggested that the transport of a nucleoplasmic protein may also occur on distinct nuclear pathways.
