description: Using a multidimensional approach to poverty measurement, this article aims to contribute to an improved understanding on the main aspects of deprivation experienced by former participants of organized crime in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, a city that became the epicenter of violence due to the ‘war on drugs’ declared in 2006. A sample of 180 surveys and 20 in-depth interviews were implemented to evaluate multidimensional poverty amongst young men serving a prison sentence for a series of crimes related to organized criminal activity (aged 12 to 29) in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua. An equal number of surveys were implemented to a group of non-offenders who had no criminal record and resided in a marginalized area of the same city. The research finds that while offenders fared worse in several non-income dimensions of poverty compared to non-offenders, qualitative evidence revealed that experiences of poverty of offenders were not homogenous, as suggested by existing studies. One of the key findings to emerge from the research is that participation in organized crime decreases income poverty; however, participation did not constitute an effective nor sustained pathway out of poverty nor did it decrease deprivation in other dimensions due to a highly skewed distribution of income in the illegal economy and the use of gains from illegal activity to fuel conspicuous consumption, findings that are similar in the established Western literature on youth gangs.

description: The bulk properties of nodal line materials have been an important research topic in recent years. In this paper, we study the orbital magnetic susceptibility and the Hall conductivity of nodal line materials using the formalism with thermal Green's functions and find characteristic singular behaviors of them. It is shown that, in the vicinity of the gapless nodal line, the orbital magnetic susceptibility shows a $δ$-function singularity and the Hall conductivity shows a step function behavior in their chemical potential dependences. Furthermore, these singular behaviors are found to show strong field angle dependences corresponding to the orientation of the nodal line in the momentum space. These singular behaviors and strong angle dependences will give clear evidence for the presence of the nodal line and its orientation and can be used to experimentally detect nodal line materials.

description: In this paper we use the notion of slice monogenic functions \cite{slicecss} to define a new functional calculus for an $n$-tuple $T$ of not necessarily commuting operators. This calculus is different from the one discussed in \cite{jefferies} and it allows the explicit construction of the eigenvalue equation for the $n$-tuple $T$ based on a new notion of spectrum for $T$. Our functional calculus is consistent with the Riesz-Dunford calculus in the case of a single operator.

This new class of monogenic functions contains the polynomials (and, more in general, power series) with coefficients in the Clifford algebra $\rr_n$. We will prove a Cauchy integral formula as well as some of its consequences. Finally, we deal with the zeroes of some polynomials and power series.

description: The recent theoretical discovery of finite-amplitude travelling waves in pipe flow has re-ignited interest in the transitional phenomena that Osborne Reynolds studied 125 years ago. Despite all being unstable, these waves are providing fresh insight into the flow dynamics. Here we describe two new classes of highly-symmetric travelling waves (possessing rotational, shift-&-reflect and mirror symmetries) and report a new family of mirror-symmetric waves which is the first found in pipe flow not to have shift-&-reflect symmetry. The highly-symmetric waves appear at lower Reynolds numbers than the originally-discovered non-mirror-symmetric waves found by Faisst & Eckhardt 2003 and Wedin & Kerswell 2004 and have much higher wall shear stresses. The first M-class comprises of the various discrete-rotationally-symmetric analogues of the mirror-symmetric wave found in Pringle & Kerswell (2007) and have a distinctive double layer structure of fast and slow streaks across the pipe radius. The second N-class has the more familiar separation of fast streaks to the exterior and slow streaks to the interior and looks the precursor to the class of non-mirror-symmetric waves already known.

description: Severe flooding may become more frequent due to global warming. A historical cohort study was conducted by telephone interview for new episodes of illness in all age groups, and for psychological distress in adults, following severe river flooding on 12 October 2000 in the town of Lewes in Southern England. Two hundred and twenty-seven residents of 103 flooded households and 240 residents of 104 non-flooded households in the same postal district were recruited by random selection of addresses from a post flooding survey and a commercial database respectively. Having been flooded was associated with earache (RR 2.2 [1.1,4.1] p = 0.02), and a significant increase in risk of gastroenteritis with depth of flooding (RR 1.7 [0.9,3.0] p = 0.09, p for trend by flood depth = 0.04). Adults had a four-times higher risk of psychological distress defined as a score of > 4 in response to the 12- item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) (RR 4.1 [2.6, 6.4] p < 0.0005, p for trend by flood depth = 0.01). Associations between flooding and new episodes of physical illness in adults diminished after adjustment for psychological distress. Flooding remained highly significantly associated with psychological distress after adjustment for physical illnesses. Psychological distress may explain some of the excess physical illness reported by flooded adults and possibly by children as well. Policies to promote population resilience to flooding where flood prevention has failed must include practical support for flood victims and provision of appropriate psychological support. Associations with physical illnesses affirm the need for advice and assistance with individual, household and environmental hygiene and access to medical services.

description: Spin Transfer Nano-Oscillators (STNOs) are good candidates for applications to telecommunications, but their output power is very low, under the nW. A possible solution to overcome this problem is to synchronize an assembly of STNOs. For manufacturing purposes, large number of STNOs will have to be electrically connected. In this letter, we study analytically the impact of electrical connection on the synchronization of STNOs. Our analysis shows that the phase dynamics of the coupled STNOs can be described in the framework of the Kuramoto model. The conditions for successful synchronization of an assembly of STNOs are derived.

description: We propose a novel analytical model for anisotropic multi-layer cylindrical structures containing graphene layers. The general structure is formed by an aperiodic repetition of a three-layer sub-structure, where a graphene layer, with an isotropic surface conductivity, has been sandwiched between two adjacent magnetic materials. An external magnetic bias has been applied in the axial direction. General matrix representation is obtained in our proposed analytical model to find the dispersion relation. The relation will be used to find the effective index of the structure and its other propagation parameters. Two special exemplary structures have been introduced and studied to show the richness of the proposed general structure regarding the related specific plasmonic wave phenomena and effects. A series of simulations have been conducted to demonstrate the noticeable wave-guiding properties of the structure in the 10-40 THz band. A very good agreement between the analytical and simulation results is observed. The proposed structure can be utilized to design novel plasmonic devices such as absorbers, modulators, plasmonic sensors and tunable antennas in the THz frequencies.

A Discriminative Vectorial Framework for Multi-modal Feature Representation

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Machine Learning (cs.LG)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Due to the rapid advancements of sensory and computing technology, multi-modal data sources that represent the same pattern or phenomenon have attracted growing attention. As a result, finding means to explore useful information from these multi-modal data sources has quickly become a necessity. In this paper, a discriminative vectorial framework is proposed for multi-modal feature representation in knowledge discovery by employing multi-modal hashing (MH) and discriminative correlation maximization (DCM) analysis. Specifically, the proposed framework is capable of minimizing the semantic similarity among different modalities by MH and exacting intrinsic discriminative representations across multiple data sources by DCM analysis jointly, enabling a novel vectorial framework of multi-modal feature representation. Moreover, the proposed feature representation strategy is analyzed and further optimized based on canonical and non-canonical cases, respectively. Consequently, the generated feature representation leads to effective utilization of the input data sources of high quality, producing improved, sometimes quite impressive, results in various applications. The effectiveness and generality of the proposed framework are demonstrated by utilizing classical features and deep neural network (DNN) based features with applications to image and multimedia analysis and recognition tasks, including data visualization, face recognition, object recognition; cross-modal (text-image) recognition and audio emotion recognition. Experimental results show that the proposed solutions are superior to state-of-the-art statistical machine learning (SML) and DNN algorithms.

description: We investigate equilibrium sequences of magnetized rotating stars with four kinds of realistic equations of state (EOSs) of SLy (Douchin et al.), FPS (Pandharipande et al.), Shen (Shen et al.), and LS (Lattimer & Swesty). Employing the Tomimura-Eriguchi scheme to construct the equilibrium configurations. we study the basic physical properties of the sequences in the framework of Newton gravity. In addition we newly take into account a general relativistic effect to the magnetized rotating configurations. With these computations, we find that the properties of the Newtonian magnetized stars, e.g., structure of magnetic field, highly depends on the EOSs. The toroidal magnetic fields concentrate rather near the surface for Shen and LS EOSs than those for SLy and FPS EOSs. The poloidal fields are also affected by the toroidal configurations. Paying attention to the stiffness of the EOSs, we analyze this tendency in detail. In the general relativistic stars, we find that the difference due to the EOSs becomes small because all the employed EOSs become sufficiently stiff for the large maximum density, typically greater than $10^{15}\rm{g} \rm{cm}^{-3}$. The maximum baryon mass of the magnetized stars with axis ratio $q\sim 0.7$ increases about up to twenty percents for that of spherical stars. We furthermore compute equilibrium sequences at finite temperature, which should serve as an initial condition for the hydrodynamic study of newly-born magnetars. Our results suggest that we may obtain information about the EOSs from the observation of the masses of magnetars.

description: One way of revealing the nature of the coronal heating mechanism is by comparing simple theoretical one dimensional hydrostatic loop models with observations at the temperature and/or density structure along these features. The most well-known method for dealing with comparisons like that is the $χ^2$ approach. In this paper we consider the restrictions imposed by this approach and present an alternative way for making model comparisons using Bayesian statistics. In order to quantify our beliefs we use Bayes factors and information criteria such as AIC and BIC. Three simulated datasets are analyzed in order to validate the procedure and assess the effects of varying error bar size. Another two datasets (Ugarte-Urra et al., 2005; Priest et al., 2000) are re-analyzed using the method described above. In one of these two datasets (Ugarte-Urra et al., 2005), due to the error estimates in the observed temperature values, it is not posible to distinguish between the different heating mechanisms. For this we suggest that both Classical and Bayesian statistics should be applied in order to make safe assumptions about the nature of the coronal heating mechanisms.

description: We theoretically investigate the temperature dependence of the reversible structural relaxation time and diffusion constant of metallic glasses under pressure. The compression not only changes the glassy dynamics, but also generates a metastable state along with a higher-energy state where the system can rejuvenate. The relaxation times for forward and backward transitions in this two-state system are nearly identical and much faster than the relaxation time without accounting for barrier-recrossing. At ambient pressure, the expected irreversible relaxation process is recovered, and our numerical results agree well with prior experimental results. An increase of pressure has a minor effect on the relaxation time and diffusion constant that one computes without considering the influence of the metastable state, but it leads to a large reduction of the reversible relaxation time computed upon taking the metastable state into account. The presence of external compression is also shown to trigger a fragile-to-strong crossover in metallic glasses.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A dilemma fishery managers sometimes face is how to state with reasonable confidence that arare fish species has been extirpated from a given system. Data on abundance and distributionare typically scarce for rare species, and are mostly in the form of incidental observations,such as fisheries bycatch or museum collections. An objective and quantitative method ofevaluating the status of a rare fish species in selected systems based on incidental observations,and upon which a manager may deern the species extirpated, would be highly desirable. In thispaper, we describe two methods that use incidental observations for determining theprobability that a fish species is extirpated and demonstrate the methods by using available datasets for Atlantic sturgeon and Alabama sturgeon.

description: A Kerr type solution in the Regge calculus is considered. It is assumed that the discrete general relativity, the Regge calculus, is quantized within the path integral approach. The only consequence of this approach used here is the existence of a length scale at which edge lengths are loosely fixed, as considered in our earlier paper. In addition, we previously considered the Regge action on a simplicial manifold on which the vertices are coordinatized and the corresponding piecewise constant metric introduced, and found that for the simplest periodic simplicial structure and in the leading order over metric variations between 4-simplices, this reduces to a finite-difference form of the Hilbert-Einstein action. The problem of solving the corresponding discrete Einstein equations (classical) with a length scale (having a quantum nature) arises as the problem of determining the optimal background metric for the perturbative expansion generated by the functional integral. Using an one-complex-function ansatz for the metric, which reduces to the Kerr-Schild metric in the continuum, we find a discrete metric that approximates the continuum one at large distances and is nonsingular on the (earlier) singularity ring. The effective curvature $R_{λννρ}$, including where $R_{λμ} \neq 0$ (gravity sources), is analyzed with a focus on the vicinity of the singularity ring.

Total synthesis of (±)-palauolide, (±)-isolinaridiol and (±)-isolinaridiol diacetate
Creators: name: Wai, John Sui Man

Year: 2010

description: This thesis describes the total syntheses of the sesterterpenoid (±)-palauolide (55) and the diterpenoids (±)-isolinaridiol (64) and (±)-isolinaridiol diacetate (61). In the total synthesis of (±)-palauolide, the decalin substructure was constructed by a copper(I) bromide-dimethyl sulfide catalyzed addition of the Grignard reagent 40 to 3,6-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one (115), followed by intramolecular alkylation of the resultant chloro ketone 121. The resultant annulation product 114 was converted into the nitrile 112, which was stereoselectively alkylated with ICH₂CH₂CH₂OCH₂OCH₃ to provide the nitrile 173. The latter substance was transformed via a series of reactions into compound 175 which was converted into the α β-unsaturated aldehyde 107. Julia olefination of 107 with the lithium salt of the sulfone 223 provided stereoselectively the triene 216, which was photooxygenated to provide (±)-palauolide (55). In the total syntheses of (±)-isolinaridiol (64) and (±)-isolinaridiol diacetate (61), the bicyclic substance 276 was prepared by following the chemistry developed in the synthesis of (±)-palauolide (55). Conversion of 276 into the aldehyde 234, followed by treatment of this material, under carefully defined conditions, with the anion of the Z-lactone phosphonate 261, provided the Z lactone 279 as the major product. Diisobutylaluminum hydride reduction of 279 yielded (±)-isolinaridiol (64). Bis-acetylation of the latter material provided (±) -isolinaridiol diacetate (61). [Formula Omitted]

description: This is the third of a series of papers that presents an algorithm to search for close binaries with massive, possibly compact, unseen secondaries. The detection of such a binary is based on identifying a star that displays a large ellipsoidal periodic modulation, induced by tidal interaction with its companion. In the second paper of the series we presented a simple approach to derive a robust modified minimum mass ratio (mMMR), based on the observed ellipsoidal amplitude, without knowing the primary mass and radius, assuming the primary fills its Roche lobe. The newly defined mMMR is always smaller than the actual mass ratio. Therefore, a binary with an mMMR larger than unity is a good candidate for having a massive secondary, which might be a black hole or a neutron star. This paper considers 10,956 OGLE short-period ellipsoidals observed towards the Galactic Bulge. We re-analyse their modulation and identify 136 main-sequence systems with mMMR significantly larger than unity as candidates for having compact-object secondaries, assuming their observed periodic modulations reflect indeed the ellipsoidal effect. Obviously, one needs follow-up observations to find out the true nature of these companions.

description: Orientalische Katholiken zeichnen sich durch eigene Riten und durch ein eigenes Kirchenrecht aus. Dieses Recht schützt einerseits die Bewahrung ihrer Identität, ermöglicht andererseits aber auch den Austausch mit den in Deutschland ansässigen westlichen Katholiken. Es regelt zum Beispiel die Zugehörigkeit zu einer ostkatholischen Kirche und deren Wechsel sowie die Spendung von Sakramenten zwischen den verschiedenen katholischen Kirchen. So ist bei einer Heirat zwischen einem westlichen und einem östlichen Katholiken der besondere heilige Ritus einzuhalten. Die Begegnung zwischen Ost und West bringt für beide Seiten Veränderungen mit sich, aber Migranten haben auch das Bedürfnis, unveränderliche Elemente zu bewahren.

description: Push-pull networks are ubiquitous in signal transduction pathways in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. They allow cells to strongly amplify signals via the mechanism of zero-order ultrasensitivity. In a push-pull network, two antagonistic enzymes control the activity of a protein by covalent modification. These enzymes are often uniformly distributed in the cytoplasm. They can, however, also be colocalized in space, for instance, near the pole of the cell. Moreover, it is increasingly recognized that these enzymes can also be spatially separated, leading to gradients of the active form of the messenger protein. Here, we investigate the consequences of the spatial distributions of the enzymes for the amplification properties of push-pull networks. Our calculations reveal that enzyme localization by itself can have a dramatic effect on the gain. The gain is maximized when the two enzymes are either uniformly distributed or colocalized in one region in the cell. Depending on the diffusion constants, however, the sharpness of the response can be strongly reduced when the enzymes are spatially separated. We discuss how our predictions could be tested experimentally.

Comment on "An efficient code to solve the Kepler equation. Elliptic case"

description: In a recent MNRAS article, Raposo-Pulido and Pelaez (RPP) designed a scheme for obtaining very close seeds for solving the elliptic Kepler Equation with the classical and the modified Newton-Rapshon methods. This implied an important reduction in the number of iterations needed to reach a given accuracy. However, RPP also made strong claims about the errors of their method that are incorrect. In particular, they claim that their accuracy can always reach the level $\sim5\varepsilon$, where $\varepsilon$ is the machine epsilon (e.g. $\varepsilon=2.2\times10^{-16} $ in double precision), and that this result is attained for all values of the eccentricity $e<1$ and the mean anomaly $M\in[0,π]$, including for $e$ and $M$ that are arbitrarily close to $1$ and $0$, respectively. However, we demonstrate both numerically and analytically that any implementation of the classical or modified Newton-Raphson methods for Kepler's equation, including those described by RPP, have a limiting accuracy of the order $\sim\varepsilon/\sqrt{2(1-e)}$. Therefore the errors of these implementations diverge in the limit $e\to1$, and differ dramatically from the incorrect results given by RPP. Despite these shortcomings, the RPP method can provide a very efficient option for reaching such limiting accuracy. We also provide a limit that is valid for the accuracy of any algorithm for solving Kepler equation, including schemes like bisection that do not use derivatives. Moreover, similar results are also demonstrated for the hyperbolic Kepler Equation. The methods described in this work can provide guidelines for designing more accurate solutions of the elliptic and hyperbolic Kepler equations.

description: A statistical treatment of finite unbound systems in the presence of collective motions is presented and applied to a classical Lennard-Jones Hamiltonian, numerically simulated through molecular dynamics. In the ideal gas limit, the flow dynamics can be exactly re-casted into effective time-dependent Lagrange parameters acting on a standard Gibbs ensemble with an extra total energy conservation constraint. Using this same ansatz for the low density freeze-out configurations of an interacting expanding system, we show that the presence of flow can have a sizeable effect on the microstate distribution.

description: Let $(M,g)$ be a compact conformally flat manifold of dimension $n\geq4$ with positive scalar curvature. According to a positive mass theorem by Schoen and Yau, the constant term in the development of the Green function of the conformal Laplacian is positive if $(M,g)$ is not conformally equivalent to the sphere. On spin manifolds, there is an elementary proof of this fact by Ammann and Humbert, based on a proof of Witten. Using differential forms instead of spinors, we give an elementary proof on even dimensional manifolds, without any other topological assumption.

Passing Multi-Channel Material Textures to a 3-Channel Loss

description: Our objective is to compute a textural loss that can be used to train texture generators with multiple material channels typically used for physically based rendering such as albedo, normal, roughness, metalness, ambient occlusion, etc. Neural textural losses often build on top of the feature spaces of pretrained convolutional neural networks. Unfortunately, these pretrained models are only available for 3-channel RGB data and hence limit neural textural losses to this format. To overcome this limitation, we show that passing random triplets to a 3-channel loss provides a multi-channel loss that can be used to generate high-quality material textures.

Synthesis of maximally entangled mixed states and disentanglement in coupled Josephson charge qubits

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We analyze a controllable generation of maximally entangled mixed states of a circuit containing two-coupled superconducting charge qubits. Each qubit is based on a Cooper pair box connected to a reservoir electrode through a Josephson junction. Illustrative variational calculations were performed to demonstrate the effect on the two-qubits entanglement. At sufficiently deviation between the Josephson energies of the qubits and/or strong coupling regime, maximally entangled mixed states at certain instances of time is synthesized. We show that entanglement has an interesting subsequent time evolution, including the sudden death effect. This enables us to completely characterize the phenomenon of entanglement sharing in the coupling of two superconducting charge qubits, a system of both theoretical and experimental interest.
