description: It is well-known that any quantum channel $\mathcal{E}$ satisfies the data processing inequality (DPI), with respect to various divergences, e.g., quantum $χ^2_κ$divergences and quantum relative entropy. More specifically, the data processing inequality states that the divergence between two arbitrary quantum states $ρ$ and $σ$ does not increase under the action of any quantum channel $\mathcal{E}$. For a fixed channel $\mathcal{E}$ and a state $σ$, the divergence between output states $\mathcal{E}(ρ)$ and $\mathcal{E}(σ)$ might be strictly smaller than the divergence between input states $ρ$ and $σ$, which is characterized by the strong data processing inequality (SDPI). Among various input states $ρ$, the largest value of the rate of contraction is known as the SDPI constant. An important and widely studied property for classical channels is that SDPI constants tensorize. In this paper, we extend the tensorization property to the quantum regime: we establish the tensorization of SDPIs for the quantum $χ^2_{κ_{1/2}}$ divergence for arbitrary quantum channels and also for a family of $χ^2_κ$ divergences (with $κ\ge κ_{1/2}$) for arbitrary quantum-classical channels.

description: This study explores the application of time series analysis as a transformative statistical tool for predicting market trends and enhancing financial reporting practices from 2020 to 2024. The research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of time series models in forecasting financial trends, improve the accuracy of financial reporting, and identify challenges in implementing these methodologies. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study integrates quantitative data from global financial databases (e.g., Bloomberg, Reuters) with qualitative insights from financial experts. Advanced statistical models, including ARIMA, exponential smoothing, and seasonal decomposition, were applied using R and Python. The findings reveal that the ARIMA model achieved an 85% prediction accuracy, outperforming other models, while regression analysis showed that 78% of stock market fluctuations could be explained by inflation and interest rate changes. The correlation coefficient between stock market performance and corporate profits was 0.89, confirming a strong positive relationship, while interest rates negatively correlated with stock prices at -0.76. Despite the challenges of data quality, model selection complexity, and computational constraints, integrating AI-driven time series models and adopting cloud-based analytics could enhance predictive accuracy by up to 30%. The study recommends investing in advanced computational resources, providing specialized training for financial analysts, and ensuring regulatory compliance to maximize the impact of time series analysis in strategic financial planning.

description: Water is one of the most vital resources on earth. Changing climate conditions coupled with growing populations has resulted in an escalating urban water demand thereby making water a scarce resource in many regional and urban centres. Scarcity of water and the ability to meet future water demands is one of the greatest concerns for many governments and public utilities. Residential water consumption represents a significant component of overall water demand. A deeper understanding of residential water consumption variability and its determinants at an end-use level enables the design and implementation of better targeted and more effective urban water conservation strategies, programs and policies. Specifically, it allows for the development of more accurate forecasting models and decision support tools for ensuring urban water security over the long term.

description: Self-identified race/ethnicity is largely used to identify, monitor, and examine racial/ethnic inequalities. A growing body of work underscores the need to consider multiple dimensions of race – the social construction of race as a function of appearance, societal interactions, institutional dynamics, stereotypes, and social norms. One such multidimensional measure is socially-assigned race, the perception of one’s race by others, that may serve as the basis for differential or unfair treatment and subsequently lead to deleterious health outcomes. We conducted a scoping review to systematically appraise the socially-assigned race and health literature. A systematic search of the PubMed, Web of Science, 28 EBSCO databases and 24 Proquest databases up to September 2019 was conducted and supplemented by a manual search of reference lists and grey literature. Quantitative and qualitative studies that examined socially-assigned race and health or health-related outcomes were considered for inclusion. Eighteen articles were included in the narrative synthesis. Self-rated health and mental health were among the most frequent outcomes studied. The majority of studies were conducted in the United States, with fewer studies conducted in New Zealand, Canada, and Latin America. While most studies demonstrate a positive association between social assignment as a disadvantaged racial or ethnic group and poorer health, some studies did not document an association. We describe key conceptual and methodological considerations that should be prioritized in future studies examining socially-assigned race and health. Socially-assigned race can provide additional insight into observed differential health outcomes among racial/ethnic groups in racialized societies based upon their lived experiences. Studies incorporating socially-assigned race warrants further investigation and may be leveraged to examine nuanced patterns of racial health advantage and disadvantage.

description: To probe the ongoing physical mechanism, we studied a wide-scale environment around AFGL 5142 (area ~25 pc x 20 pc) using a multi-wavelength approach. The Herschel column density (N(H_2)) map reveals a massive inverted Y-like structure (mass ~6280 M_sun), which hosts a pair of elongated filaments (lengths >10 pc). The Herschel temperature map depicts the filaments in a temperature range of ~12.5-13.5 K. These elongated filaments overlap each other at several places, where N(H_2) > 4.5 x 10^{21}cm^{-2}. The 12CO and 13CO line data also show two elongated cloud components (around -1.5 and -4.5 km/s) toward the inverted Y-like structure, which are connected in the velocity space. First moment maps of CO confirm the presence of two intertwined filamentary clouds along the line of sight. These results explain the morphology of the inverted Y-like structure through a combination of two different filamentary clouds, which are also supported by the distribution of the cold HI gas. Based on the distribution of young stellar objects (YSOs), star formation (SF) activities are investigated toward the inverted Y-like structure. The northern end of the structure hosts AFGL 5142 and tracers of massive SF, where high surface density of YSOs (i.e., 5-240 YSOs/pc^2) reveals strong SF activity. Furthermore, noticeable YSOs are found toward the overlapping zones of the clouds. All these observational evidences support a scenario of collision/interaction of two elongated filamentary clouds/flows, which appears to explain SF history in the site AFGL 5142.

Understanding black hole evaporation using explicitly computed Penrose diagrams

description: Explicitly computed Penrose diagrams are plotted for a classical model of black hole formation and evaporation, in which black holes form by the accretion of infalling spherical shells of matter and subsequently evaporate by emitting spherical shells of Hawking radiation. This model is based on known semiclassical effects, but is not a full solution of semiclassical gravity. The method allows arbitrary interior metrics of the form $ds^2=-f(r)\,dt^2+f(r)^{-1}\,dr^2+r^2\,dΩ^2$, including singular and nonsingular models. Matter dynamics are visualized by explicitly plotting proper density in the diagrams, as well as by tracking the location of trapped surfaces and energy condition violations. The most illustrative model accurately approximates the standard time evolution for black hole thermal evaporation; its time dependence and causal structure are analyzed by inspection of the diagram. The resulting insights contradict some common intuitions and assumptions, and we point out some examples in the literature with assumptions that do not hold up in this more detailed model. Based on the new diagrams, we argue for an improved understanding of the Hawking radiation process, propose an alternate definition of "black hole" in the presence of evaporation, and suggest some implications regarding information preservation and unitarity.

A Concise, Stereocontrolled Total Synthesis of Rippertenol
Creators: Wespe, Daniel Arnold
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Chemistry

description: Rippertenol and the kempane diterpenes are biogenetically derived from cembrene A and are dense with stereochemical complexity despite a paucity of heteroatom functionality. A discussion of past synthetic efforts towards these complex targets is presented to define the current level of understanding regarding the controlled synthesis of these molecules in order to place the studies described in Chapters 2 and 3 in better context. A unique tricyclic polyunsaturated ketone intermediate was synthesized as a platform from which to approach cycloaddition chemistry towards rippertenol. Efforts towards this novel intermediate, including a highly stereoselective conjugate addition to an unsaturated ketone and a demanding intramolecular aldol condensation, are described. An uncommon Lewis Acid-promoted inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction and a challenging ring expansion lead to the first laboratory total synthesis of rippertenol. The synthesis was completed in 19 total steps, 13 of which were necessary following the completion of a known starting material.

A change from exponentially fast to power law relaxation, and a transition to freezing behavior are found. These changes take place for smaller values of the parameter than the solvability transition. Results for the coloring problem for colorable and clustered graphs and for the fraction of persistent spins for satisfiability are also presented.

description: In 1981, with the designation of the Upper East Side Historic District, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission introduced the term "no-style." The term was used to categorize the district's non-contributing structures so that they could be regulated in a more flexible and expedient manner. Most significantly, the term allowed for buildings to be demolished under a certificate of no effect, which meant that any application for demolition was guaranteed approval.
      Today, the Landmarks Preservation Commission continues to use the term no-style. As of 2014, there were approximately 450 no-style buildings in New York City spread throughout each of the five boroughs. The Landmarks Preservation Commission's designation and regulation of these buildings has generated confusion and controversy. This stems in part from the large range of buildings that are listed as no-style. A handful of these buildings are so significantly altered that they can no longer be defined by a style and are therefore appropriately listed as no-style. Others possess a great deal of integrity and are clear examples of a given architectural style; however, contrary to all logic, they are labeled no-style. Additionally, there is confusion surrounding the Landmarks Preservation Commission's policy towards regulating no-style buildings. This stems from variations that exist between historic districts and differences between policy and practice.
      This thesis attempts to clarify the meaning of the term no-style by exploring the origins of the term, characterizing the types of buildings that have been designated as no-style, and exploring changes that have occurred to no-style buildings over time. This thesis also attempts to examine the term's broader use and to evaluate the benefits and drawbacks associated with the Landmarks Preservation Commission's use of the term.

description: We present ground-based infrared transit observations for four dynamically interacting \textit{Kepler} planets, including Kepler-29b, Kepler-36c, KOI-1783.01, and Kepler-177c, obtained using the Wide-field Infrared Camera on the Hale 200" telescope at Palomar Observatory. By utilizing an engineered diffuser and custom guiding software, we mitigate time-correlated telluric and instrumental noise sources in these observations. We achieve an infrared photometric precision comparable to or better than that of space-based observatories such as the \textit{Spitzer Space Telescope}, and detect transits with greater than 3$σ$ significance for all planets. For Kepler-177c ($J=13.9$) our measurement uncertainties are only $1.2\times$ the photon noise limit and 1.9 times better than the predicted photometric precision for \textit{Spitzer} IRAC photometry of this same target. We find that a single transit observation obtained $4-5$ years after the end of the original \textit{Kepler} mission can reduce dynamical mass uncertainties by as much as a factor of three for these systems. Additionally, we combine our new observations of KOI-1783.01 with information from the literature to confirm the planetary nature of this system. We discuss the implications of our new mass and radius constraints in the context of known exoplanets with low incident fluxes, and we note that Kepler-177c may be a more massive analog to the currently known super-puffs given its core mass (3.8$\pm0.9M_\Earth$) and large gas-to-core ratio (2.8$\pm0.7$). Our demonstrated infrared photometric performance opens up new avenues for ground-based observations of transiting exoplanets previously thought to be restricted to space-based investigation.

description: Phase transitions in combinatorial problems have recently been shown to be useful in locating "hard" instances of combinatorial problems. The connection between computational complexity and the existence of phase transitions has been addressed in Statistical Mechanics and Artificial Intelligence, but not studied rigorously. We take a step in this direction by investigating the existence of sharp thresholds for the class of generalized satisfiability problems defined by Schaefer. In the case when all constraints are clauses we give a complete characterization of such problems that have a sharp threshold. While NP-completeness does not imply (even in this restricted case) the existence of a sharp threshold, it "almost implies" this, since clausal generalized satisfiability problems that lack a sharp threshold are either 1. polynomial time solvable, or 2. predicted, with success probability lower bounded by some positive constant by across all the probability range, by a single, trivial procedure.

description: Recently Sharir and Welzl [SW92] described a randomized algorithm for a certain class of optimization problems (including linear programming), and then a subexponential bound for the expected running time was established [MSW92]. We give an example of an (artificial) optimization problem fitting into the Sharir-Welzl framework for which the running time is close to the upper bound, thus showing that the analysis of the algorithm cannot be much improved without stronger assumptions on the optimization problem and/or modifying the algorithm. Further we describe results of computer simulations for a specific linear programming problem, which indicate that "one- permutation'' and "move-to-front'' variants of the Sharir-Welzl algorithm may sometimes perform much worse than the algorithm itself.

Mean effects of turbulence on elliptic instability in fluids
Creators: name: Fabijonas, Bruce R.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Elliptic instability in fluids is discussed in the context of the Lagrangian-averaged Navier-Stokes-alpha (LANS$-α$) turbulence model. This model preserves the Craik-Criminale (CC) family of solutions consisting of a columnar eddy and a Kelvin wave. The LANS$-α$ model is shown to preserve the elliptic instability for the inviscid case. However, the model shifts the critical stability angle. This shift increases (resp. decreases) the maximum growth rate for long (resp. short) waves. It also introduces a band of stable CC solutions for short waves.

description: This paper enriches the list of known properties of congruence sequences starting from the universal relation and successively performing the operators lower $k$ and lower $t$. Two series of inverse semigroups, namely $\ker{α_n}$-is-Clifford semigroups and $β_n$-is-over-$E$-unitary semigroups, are investigated. Two congruences, namely $α_{n+2}$ and $β_{n+2}$, are found to be the least $\ker{α_n}$-is-Clifford and least $β_n$-is-over-$E$-unitary congruences on $S$, respectively. A new system of implications is established for the quasivarieties of inverse semigroups induced by the min network.
A Conversation Analytic Study on Participation Practices in the American Graduate Classroom: East Asian Students Vs. L1 English-Speaking Students

subject: Classroom environment--Psychological aspects

description: In an increasingly global world, there has been a steep rise in the population of East Asian students (EASs) arriving in the United States to pursue post-secondary degrees. This has made EASs’ reticent and passive behaviors in the American classroom—a problem that has been raised and discussed for years—more salient today than ever before. While there has been a sizable amount of previous research investigating EASs who did not participate in class, very little attention has been paid to EASs who did participate and how they participate. This study examines EASs’ participation practices and how they differ from those of native-English-speaking students (NESSs). Using the conversation analysis (CA) method, I examined 38 hours of video-recorded and transcribed graduate classroom sessions from a university in the U.S., paying particular attention to both linguistic and non-linguistic features as well as various facets of embodiment, including gaze, gestures, and body movement. The analysis shows that both EASs and NESSs undertook three distinct stages of self-selection: namely, registering, gearing up, and launching. While EASs tended to faithfully follow the three full stages, NESSs tended to economize their process to reach self-selection faster and more effortlessly. In addition, in responding to teacher questions, EASs typically utilized the answering style that pursues a narrow focus on answering the teacher question, while NESSs were found to engage in the exploring style without such a narrow focus. Finally, in making affiliative or disaffiliative contributions to class discussions without any teacher questions or prompts, EASs were found to display a factual stance, without much use of affective elements, while NESSs tended to express an affective stance. Findings of this study contribute to the literature on EASs’ class participation as the first CA study on this topic and to that of classroom discourse in general. Pedagogically, these findings can constitute a useful basis for equipping instructors with better tools for working with EASs and training EASs to develop a more effective style of participation in the American graduate classroom.
A Correlated 1-D Monatomic Condensed Matter System: Experiment and Theory
Creators: Zaki, Nader Wasfy
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2014
Subjects: Condensed matter

description: A one-dimensional quantum mechanical system is experimentally synthesized and investigated for physical phenomena that it may inherit due to quantum confinement and electron correlations. The experimentally realized system is a self-assembled array of monatomic cobalt wires that are grown under ultra-high vacuum conditions on a vicinal copper (111) substrate using a recipe developed specifically for this work. This work experimentally demonstrates that this 1-D system undergoes a charge density wave instability, which is a first for such a 1-D phenomenon on a metallic substrate. It is determined experimentally that this 1-D system undergoes an electronic phase transition at a temperature of about 85K, in which the higher temperature electronic phase is itinerant rather than localized. Using ab initio density functional theory, the cause of the measured charge density wave instability is assigned to erromagnetic interactions along the chain. Specifically, it is deduced that the instability is driven by spin -minority pin-exchange interactions predominately in the cobalt dxz/dyz orbitals. Beyond, shedding light on electron correlations in a physically realized quantum mechanical 1-D system, this work demonstrates that this particular system is a new test-case example for advanced theoretical techniques in predicting the correct structural ground phase.
A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Early Literacy Interventions

description: Success in early literacy activities is associated with improved educational outcomes, including reduced dropout risk, in-grade retention, and special education referrals. When considering programs that will work for a particular school and context; cost-effectiveness analysis may provide useful information for decision makers. The study provides information about the cost-effectiveness of four early literacy programs that the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC), a government agency that evaluates effectiveness research in education, has determined show evidence of effectiveness: Accelerated Reader, Classwide Peer Tutoring, Reading Recovery, and Success for All. By using meta-analytic techniques to combine effect sizes for different studies and weighting literacy outcomes, the study provides new information about the relative effectiveness of early literacy programs. In particular, by weighting literacy outcomes, the study casts new light upon the relative importance of different kinds of literacy outcomes for creating successful beginning readers. Costs are often ignored, but are a necessary consideration given budget constraints. Rigorous measurement of program costs and presentation of cost-effectiveness ratios provides information about the relative cost-effectiveness of four "effective" programs.
Gender, Progressive Islam, and Islamism in Indonesia: Analysing the Political Attitudes of PKB and PKS

description: This thesis investigates the attitudes of two of Indonesia’s main Islamic parties, National Awakening Party (PKB) and the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), towards gender and women’s issues. There has been an assumption that PKB is more liberal than PKS due to the progressive religious backgrounds of many of its parliamentarians and leaders. While PKB has strong roots in the reform-minded Cultural Islam movement, which tended to support gender equality, PKS has its origins in the Tarbiyah movement, which was heavily influenced by the thinking of Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhoodand was socially conservative and Islamist. This study examines whether the contrasting backgrounds of these parties produces markedly different policies and actions on gender and women’s issues. It analyses the two parties’ attitudes during deliberations in parliament on two controversial items of draft legislation: the Anti- Domestic Violence and the Anti-Pornography bill. This thesis argues that despite their differing doctrinal and intellectual origins, PKB and PKS had similar views on these bills. I contend that the interaction with non-Islamists and activists from women’s NGOs enabled PKS to moderate its attitude on gender and women’s issues. PKB supported the Anti-Pornography bill though in some ways, the party failed to serve as a champion of gender equality in parliament, belying its reputation for pro-women’s activism.
Mechanism for the Intermittent Route to Strange Nonchaotic Attractors

description: Intermittent strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs) appear typically in quasiperiodically forced period-doubling systems. As a representative model, we consider the quasiperiodically forced logistic map and investigate the mechanism for the intermittent route to SNAs using rational approximations to the quasiperiodic forcing. It is thus found that a smooth torus is transformed into an intermittent SNA via a phase-dependent saddle-node bifurcation when it collides with a new type of ``ring-shaped'' unstable set. Besides this intermittent transition, other transitions such as the interior, boundary, and band-merging crises may also occur through collision with the ring-shaped unstable sets. Hence the ring-shaped unstable sets play a central role for such dynamical transitions. Furthermore, these kinds of dynamical transitions seem to be ``universal,'' in the sense that they occur typically in a large class of quasiperiodically forced period-doubling systems.

description: This study evaluates the effectiveness of an individualized approach to Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy in pediatric patients with secondary cataracts. A total of 135 children (270 eyes), aged 8 months to 13 years (mean age: 6.1 ± 2.3 years), were examined after previous cataract surgery. Laser parameters were selected based on posterior capsule fibrosis density, age, and intraocular lens (IOL) type. At the 12-month follow-up, 89.6% (242 eyes) retained a clear visual axis and 83.3% (225 eyes) showed improvement by at least 2 Snellen lines. Complication rate was reduced to 7.8%. The individualized method enhances safety and visual outcomes in pediatric laser treatment.
