description: We classify simply connected rationally elliptic manifolds of dimension five and those of dimension six with small Betti numbers from the point of view of their rational cohomology structure. We also prove that a geometrically formal rationally elliptic six dimensional manifold, whose second Betti number is two, is rational cohomology $S^2\times {\mathbb C}P^2$. An infinite family of six-dimensional simply connected biquotients whose second Betti number is three, different from Totaro's biquotients, is considered and it is proved that none of biquotient from this family is geometrically formal.

description: We explore several families of flip-graphs, all related to polygons or punctured polygons. In particular, we consider the topological flip-graphs of once-punctured polygons which, in turn, contain all possible geometric flip-graphs of polygons with a marked point as embedded sub-graphs. Our main focus is on the geometric properties of these graphs and how they relate to one another. In particular, we show that the embeddings between them are strongly convex (or, said otherwise, totally geodesic). We also find bounds on the diameters of these graphs, sometimes using the strongly convex embeddings. Finally, we show how these graphs relate to different polytopes, namely type D associahedra and a family of secondary polytopes which we call pointihedra.

description: Classical Cepheid variable stars are high-sensitivity probes of stellar evolution and fundamental tracers of cosmic distances. While rotational mixing significantly affects the evolution of Cepheid progenitors (intermediate-mass stars), the impact of the resulting changes in stellar structure and composition on Cepheids on their pulsational properties is hitherto unknown. Here we present the first detailed pulsational instability analysis of stellar evolution models that include the effects of rotation, for both fundamental mode and first overtone pulsation. We employ Geneva evolution models spanning a three-dimensional grid in mass (1.7 - 15 $M_\odot$), metallicity (Z = 0.014, 0.006, 0.002), and rotation (non-rotating, average & fast rotation). We determine (1) hot and cool instability strip (IS) boundaries taking into account the coupling between convection and pulsation, (2) pulsation periods, and (3) rates of period change. We investigate relations between period and (a) luminosity, (b) age, (c) radius, (d) temperature, (e) rate of period change, (f) mass, (g) the flux-weighted gravity-luminosity relation (FWGLR). We confront all predictions aside from those for age with observations, finding generally excellent agreement. We tabulate period-luminosity relations (PLRs) for several photometric pass-bands and investigate how the finite IS width, different IS crossings, metallicity, and rotation affect PLRs. We show that a Wesenheit index based on H, V, and I photometry is expected to have the smallest intrinsic PLR dispersion. We confirm that rotation resolves the Cepheid mass discrepancy. Period-age relations depend significantly on rotation (rotation increases Cepheid ages), offering a straightforward explanation for evolved stars in binary systems that cannot be matched by conventional isochrones assuming a single age. Finally, we show that Cepheids obey a tight FWGLR.

description: The influence of in-plane and canted magnetic fields on spin spirals and skyrmions in atomic bilayer islands of palladium and iron on an Ir(111) substrate is investigated by scanning tunnelling microscopy at low temperatures. It is shown that the spin spiral propagation direction is determined by the island's border which can be explained by equilibrium state calculations on a triangular lattice. By application of in-plane fields, the spin spiral reorientates its propagation direction and becomes distorted, thereby allowing a proof for its cycloidal nature. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the skyrmions' shape is distorted in canted fields which allows to determine the sense of magnetisation rotation as enforced by the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction.

description: We study an orbitally degenerate Kondo effect in a triangular triple quantum dot (TTQD), where the three dots are connected vertically with a single metallic lead through electron tunneling. Both spin and orbital degrees of freedom play an important role in the SU(4) Kondo effect. This is demonstrated by an equilateral TTQD Kondo system at half-filling, by Wilson's numerical renormalization group method. We show how an emergent electric polarization of the TTQD is associated with a crossover from SU(4) to SU(2) symmetry in the low-temperature state. A marked sign reversal of the electric polarization is generated by the fine-tuning of Kondo coupling with degenerate orbitals, which can be utilized to reveal orbital dynamics in the SU(4) Kondo effect.

description: The paper examines relationships between the conditional Shannon entropy and the expectation of $\ell_α$-norm for joint probability distributions. More precisely, we investigate the tight bounds of the expectation of $\ell_α$-norm with a fixed conditional Shannon entropy, and vice versa. As applications of the results, we derive the tight bounds between the conditional Shannon entropy and several information measures which are determined by the expectation of $\ell_α$-norm, e.g., the conditional Rényi entropy and the conditional $R$-norm information. Moreover, we apply these results to discrete memoryless channels under a uniform input distribution. Then, we show the tight bounds of Gallager's $E_{0}$ functions with a fixed mutual information under a uniform input distribution.

description: A gyrogroup is a nonassociative group-like structure modelled on the space of relativistically admissible velocities with a binary operation given by Einstein's velocity addition law. In this article, we present a few of groups sitting inside a gyrogroup $G$, including the commutator subgyrogroup, the left nucleus, and the radical of $G$. The normal closure of the commutator subgyrogroup, the left nucleus, and the radical of $G$ are in particular normal subgroups of $G$. We then give a criterion to determine when a subgyrogroup $H$ of a finite gyrogroup $G$, where the index $[G\colon H]$ is the smallest prime dividing $|G|$, is normal in $G$.

He continued and continued his PhD research under the supervision of Professor (Dr.) Lijing Wang and Emeritus Professor (Dr.) Robert Shanks from February 2020 to still now. Engr. Anowar Hossain faced hidden life threatening in 2022 when Engr. Md. Anowar Hossain was addicted to do PhD research on color engineering and camouflage engineering. Accordingly, RMIT University and/or administration of Professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye gave him suspension for unethical achievement, unethical proposal, unethical harassment and repeated action of life-threatening. A force drop of two semesters should be academic offence when hidden life-threatening was continued and continued under the act of official life-threatening in PhD school, School of Fashion & Textiles, RMIT University. Author faced life-threatening at PhD school in Australia. Professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye told the author about family/relative peoples in Bangladesh; professional/relative peoples in Bangladesh and India without specific reason of official discussion and/or PhD schooling in Australia. Author had no personal relation with Professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye in any point of his personal and professional journey before starting PhD in RMIT University. Professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye did research on family background of author, maternal family of author, paternal family of author, professional peoples of author in Bangladesh and India as prerequisite of PhD schooling in PhD school when Author was full time engaged in PhD school to continue PhD research on color engineering. Finally, Professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye tried and tried to kill author by hidden technology of professor in Australia. The author’s family and professional peoples in Bangladesh and India was expanded to PhD school in Australia for making artificial harassment to PhD candidate. Author hardly complained against Professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye about his life-threatening occurrence in PhD school to Professor (Dr.) Alec Cameron, honorable Vice-Chancellor of RMIT University in 2022. Office of Vice Chancellor, RMIT University and Professor (Dr.) Alec Cameron, honorable Vice-Chancellor of RMIT University were completely silent regarding the act of official life threatening, executed/administered/directed by professor (Dr.) Rajiv Padhye, School of Fashion & Textiles, RMIT University.

description: We present a biochemical model of the wall shear stress (WSS)-induced activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in an endothelial cell (EC). The model includes three key mechanotransducers: mechanosensing ion channels, integrins and G-protein-coupled receptors. The reaction cascade consists of two interconnected parts. The first is rapid activation of calcium, which results in formation of calcium-calmodulin complexes, followed by recruitment of eNOS from caveolae. The second is phosphoryaltion of eNOS by protein kinases PKC and AKT. The model also includes a negative feedback loop due to inhibition of calcium influx into the cell by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). In this feedback, increased nitric oxide (NO) levels cause an increase in cGMP levels, so that cGMP inhibition of calcium influx can limit NO production. The model was used to predict the dynamics of NO production by an EC subjected to a step increase of WSS from zero to a finite physiologically relevant value. Among several experimentally observed features, the model predicts a highly nonlinear, biphasic transient behavior of eNOS activation and NO production: a rapid initial activation due to the very rapid influx of calcium into the cytosol (occurring within 1 to 5 minutes) is followed by a sustained period of activation due to protein kinases.

description: The virial theorem for a system of interacting electrons in a crystal, which is described within the framework of the tight-binding model, is derived. We show that, in particular case of interacting massless electrons in graphene and other Dirac materials, the conventional virial theorem is violated. Starting from the tight-binding model, we derive the generalized virial theorem for Dirac electron systems, which contains an additional term associated with a momentum cutoff at the bottom of the energy band. Additionally, we derive the generalized virial theorem within the Dirac model using the minimization of the variational energy. The obtained theorem is illustrated by many-body calculations of the ground state energy of an electron gas in graphene carried out in Hartree-Fock and self-consistent random-phase approximations. Experimental verification of the theorem in the case of graphene is discussed.

description: Carrier aggregation, which allows users to aggregate several component carriers to obtain up to 100 MHz of band- width, is one of the central features envisioned for next generation cellular networks. While this feature will enable support for higher data rates and improve quality of service, it may also be employed as an effective interference mitigation technique, especially in multi-tier heterogeneous networks. Having in mind that the aggregated component carriers may belong to different frequency bands and, hence, have varying propagation profiles, we argue that it is not necessary, indeed even harmful, to transmit at maximum power at all carriers, at all times. Rather, by using game theory, we design a distributed algorithm that lets eNodeBs and micro base stations dynamically adjust the downlink transmit power for the different component carriers. We compare our scheme to different power strategies combined with popular interference mitigation techniques, in a typical large-scale scenario, and show that our solution significantly outperforms the other strategies in terms of global network utility, power consumption and user throughput.

description: How do men and women differ in their persistence after experiencing failure in a competitive environment? We tackle this question by combining a large online experiment (N=2,086) with machine learning. We find that when losing is unequivocally due to merit, both men and women exhibit a significant decrease in subsequent tournament entry. However, when the prior tournament is unfair, i.e., a loss is no longer necessarily based on merit, women are more discouraged than men. These results suggest that transparent meritocratic criteria may play a key role in preventing women from falling behind after experiencing a loss.

Gas Dynamics and Outflow in the Barred Starburst Galaxy NGC 1808 Revealed with ALMA

description: NGC 1808 is a nearby barred starburst galaxy with an outflow from the nuclear region. To study the inflow and outflow processes related to star formation and dynamical evolution of the galaxy, we have carried out \(^{12}\)CO (\(J=1-0\)) mapping observations of the central \(r\sim4\) kpc of NGC 1808 using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Four distinct components of molecular gas are revealed at high spatial resolution of 2\arcsec (\(\sim100\) pc): (1) a compact (\(r<200\) pc) circumnuclear disk (CND), (2) \(r\sim500\) pc ring, (3) gas-rich galactic bar, and (4) spiral arms. Basic geometric and kinematic parameters are derived for the central 1-kpc region using tilted-ring modeling. The derived rotation curve reveals multiple mass components that include (1) a stellar bulge, (2) nuclear bar and molecular CND, and (3) unresolved massive (\(\sim10^7~M_\sun\)) core. Two systemic velocities, 998 km s\(^{-1}\) for the CND and 964 km s\(^{-1}\) for the 500-pc ring, are revealed, indicating a kinematic offset. The pattern speed of the primary bar, derived by using a cloud-orbit model, is \(56\pm11\) km s\(^{-1}\) kpc\(^{-1}\). Non-circular motions are detected associated with a nuclear spiral pattern and outflow in the central 1-kpc region. The ratio of the mass outflow rate to the star formation rate is \(\dot{M}_\mathrm{out}/SFR\sim0.2\) in the case of optically thin CO (1-0) emission in the outflow, suggesting low efficiency of star formation quenching.

Retinal structural and vascular features of glaucoma
Creators: name: Saks, Danit
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Glaucoma refers to a group of optic neuropathies characterised by the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells, which if untreated, lead to vision loss. Despite the vast prevalence of glaucoma worldwide, its aetiology is complex and still being established. Lowering intraocular pressure is the only known mechanism of treatment intervention to date. However, elevated intraocular pressure is not essential for a glaucoma diagnosis. Glaucoma risk is also affected by older age, family history of glaucoma, ocular factors such as optic disc haemorrhage, thin central cornea and high myopia; and systemic factors such as hypertension. Vascular insufficiency has been proposed to be a contributing factor to the pathophysiology of glaucoma with reduced retinal blood flow and disrupted retinal microvasculature reported. However, the question remains whether microvasculature perfusion disruption is an early feature in glaucoma or whether it is a consequence of reduced demand due to degeneration of retinal ganglion cells. In this thesis, vascular features are investigated in the early stages of glaucoma. Vessel density is shown to be reduced, foveal avascular zone area and perimeter are enlarged, foveal circularity is reduced, and wedge-shaped focal vascular defects are identified. Vascular wedge defects are found to be associated with faster global RNFL progression. Vascular wedge defects are compared to localised RNFL defects, and both are shown to be associated with higher genetic risk of glaucoma as determined by a polygenic risk score. These findings provide supporting evidence for vascular involvement in the pathophysiology of glaucoma.
Customer Perceptions: The Effects of Meaningful Waiting Times on Mistreatment

description: Customers who wait too long to be served are likelier to be angry and mistreat employees. We investigated how and when perceived wait time can cause customer mistreatment. Two studies tested our research questions using experimental manipulation (Study 1: N=496) and a cross-sectional survey (N=984) of online food delivery services in China. The findings indicate customer anger mediates the long wait time and mistreatment relationship. There was a three-way interaction between perceived wait time, customer sense of power and meaningfulness o time on customer anger and mistreatment such that this effect strengthened when customers had a low sense of power and low meaningfulness of time. Managers should create meaningful experiences and tailor services to customer needs to minimise perceived wait time. We also developed a meaningful time scale with good convergent and discriminant validity (Cronbach Alpha=.87). Our findings have implications for theory, research, and practice

description: We make an attempt to identify regions in a Type II Two-Higgs Doublet Model, which correspond to a metastable electroweak vacuum with lifetime larger than the age of the universe. We analyse scenarios which retain perturbative unitarity up to Grand unification and Planck scales. Each point in the parameter space is restricted using Data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as well as flavor and precision electroweak constraints. We find that substantial regions of the parameter space are thus identified as corresponding to metastability, which compliment the allowed regions for absolute stability, for top quark mass at the high as well as low end of its currently allowed range. Thus, a two-Higgs doublet scenario with the electroweak vacuum, either stable or metastable, can sail through all the way up to the Planck scale without facing any contradictions.

description: As rising sea levels and subsequent recurrent flooding disproportionately affects coastal areas, it is crucial to develop a heightened awareness of the impacts of natural disasters on communities and the environments they live in. The Hampton Roads’ Building Resilient Communities (BRC) Flood Game is a simulation role-playing game designed to allow players to increase their understanding of the impact of various community response interventions to sea level rise and recurrent flooding. Players will examine and assess the tradeoffs of resiliency investments, the impact policies may have on the population, and the amount of time return on investment takes. The BRC game was designed using research-based game design principles to positively impact the user experience and facilitate the development of the overall game environment.

Year: 2023
Subjects: business schools; higher education; student choice; college choice

description: This systematic review analyzes the factors influencing students’ selection of management institutes. Following PRISMA guidelines, 53 studies were selected for analysis based on set inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study applies theories of planned behavior, personal epistemology, goal pursuit, and signaling to understand the results. The literature is categorized into choice, perception, and realization studies. Seven constructs are identified: campus, academic quality, online presence, financial considerations, personal, psychological, and social factors, and 30 variables used to quantify these constructs. The findings have important implications for management institutes seeking to attract and retain students.

description: CINECA aims to support the federated queries and analyses of distributed cohorts across continents. A vital component of this work is building a machine readable catalogue of cohorts and sites that support the efforts of Work Package 1 discovery and analysis APIs, which can be programmatically queried so that API calls can be made to relevant sites and results gathered and presented to the researcher. Deliverable D1.1, Discovery Service Catalogue, supports the work of dependent work packages by implementing and demonstrating an open-source extended implementation of the Service Registry standard of the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH) for WP1’s discovery queries, the GA4GH Beacon queries. The Service Registry standard is now supported by the ELIXIR Beacon Network that CINECA WP1 uses to federate discovery queries across cohorts, and this demonstrator deliverable demonstrates the use of the service registry and its open source implementation.

description: Aufgrund von Reformen auf Hochschulebene (z.B. Hochschulexpansion, Bologna-Re-form) sowie transformierender Einschnitte wie der COVID-19-Pandemie gewinnt die Förderung von (digitalen) Lehrkompetenzen an der Hochschule an Bedeutung (vgl. Keh-rer & Thillosen 2021, S. 65). Als „Grenzfall wissenschaftlicher Weiterbildung“ (Scheidig & Klingovsky 2020, S. 297) diskutiert, steht hierbei die hochschuldidaktische Weiterbildung vor der Herausforderung, den Erwartungen an praxisnahe Lösungen zur Gestaltung von Hochschullehre (Reinmann 2021, S. 45) sowie gleichermaßen einem wissenschaftlichen Anspruch gerecht zu werden (vgl. Merkt 2014a, S. 101). Unter Bezugnahme auf die im Feld der wissenschaftlichen Weiterbildung geführte Diskussion der „Wissenschaftlichkeit“ (Tremp 2020, S. 123) untersucht die vorliegende Arbeit im Rahmen einer Programm- und Dokumentenanalyse Wissenschaftsbezüge in zehn ausgewählten hochschuldidakti-schen Zertifikatsprogrammen aus den Jahren 2021 und 2022. Hierbei konnten stilistisch-kommunikative, theoretisch-konzeptionelle, forschungsbezogene, fachlich-disziplinäre und institutionell-akteursspezifische Bezüge auf Wissenschaft herausgearbeitet werden. Dies ermöglicht eine differenzierte Betrachtung von Wissenschaftsbezügen in der hoch-schuldidaktischen Weiterbildung und bietet Anknüpfungspunkte für den wissenschafts-bezogenen Diskurs in der wissenschaftlichen Weiterbildung.
description: Due to reforms at the university level (e.g., university expansion, Bologna reform) as well as transformative events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the promotion of (digital) aca- demic teaching skills is gaining importance (Kehrer & Thillosen 2021, p. 65). Discussed as a borderline case of continuing higher education (Scheidig & Klingovsky 2020, p. 297), academic teacher training faces the challenge of meeting diverging expectations: Provi-ding practice-oriented methods (Reinmann 2021, p. 45) while implementing scientific-oriented courses (Merkt 2014a, p. 101). Taking the discussion of scientificity in continuing higher education into consideration (Tremp 2020, p. 123), this study examines interpre-tations of scientific reference in ten selected certificate programs for academic teaching from the years 2021 and 2022. For this purpose, a program analysis as well as a document analysis are used. As a result, interpretations of scientific references on a sty-listic-communicative, theoretical-conceptual, research-related, subject-disciplinary, and institutional-actor-specific level could be shown. These findings enable a differentiated view of science references in academic teacher training. Moreover, they provide approa-ches for the science-related discourse in continuing higher education.

description: The focal field properties of radially/azimuthally polarized Zernike polynomials are studied. A method to design the pupil field in order to shape the focal field of radially or azimuthally polarized phase vortex is introduced. With this method, we are able to obtain a pupil field to achieve a longitudinally polarized hollow spot with a depth of focus up to $12λ$ and $0.14λ$ lateral resolution for a optical system with numerical aperture 0.99; A pupil field to generate 8 circularly polarized focal spots along the optical axis is also obtained with this method.

description: The information available in the media and networking platforms is diverse, making it challenging to distinguish between truth and misinformation, particularly concerning health issues. Therefore, it has become crucial to develop new forms of education to address this issue. This article aims to explore the concept of post-truth in health and the potential role of universities in combating it. After reviewing the existing literature in Greece and internationally, the article discusses the concept of post-truth and its relevance to health. It also highlights the significance of health promotion and education, including health literacy, in reducing the risk of public and individual health from post-truth phenomena. The article concludes with some amazing findings which suggest, that a holistic approach to health through a Healthy University, could turn individuals into critical thinkers and empower them with knowledge and skills necessary to identify misinformation and make informed health decisions.

The researchers used modified grounded theory to compile the emotions used for coding students’ weekly reflections, and content analyzed how the TAPP experience affected students’ EI development. Overall, the article emphasizes the importance of supporting TPC students’ EI development in low-stakes environments since EI directly impacted their actions when collaborating.
The role of SiO as a tracer of past star-formation events: The case of the high-mass protocluster NGC 2264-C

description: NGC 2264-C is a high-mass protocluster where several star-formation events are known to have occurred. To investigate whether past protostellar activity has left a chemical imprint in this region, we mapped it in SiO($J = 2-1$), a shock tracer, and several other molecular lines with the Nobeyama 45 m telescope. Our observations show the presence of a complex network of protostellar outflows. The strongest SiO emission lies beyond a radius of $\sim 0.1$ pc with respect to the center of the clump, and is characterized by broad ($> 10$ km s$^{-1}$) lines and abundances of $\sim 1.4 \times 10^{-8}$ with respect to H$_2$. Interestingly, SiO appears relatively depleted ($χ_\mathrm{SiO} \sim 4 \times 10^{-9}$) within this radius, despite it being affected by molecular outflow activity. We attribute this to fast condensation of SiO back onto dust grains and/or rapid gas-phase destruction of SiO, favored by the high density present in this area ($> 10^6$ cm$^{-3}$). Finally, we identify a peripheral, narrow-line ($\sim 2$ km s$^{-1}$) component, where SiO has an abundance of a few times 10$^{-11}$. After considering different options, we conclude that this weak emission may be tracing protostellar shocks from the star formation episode that preceded the current one, which have decelerated over time and eventually resulted in SiO being largely depleted/destroyed. Alternatively, a population of unresolved low-mass protostars may be responsible for the narrow SiO emission. High-angular resolution observations are necessary to distinguish between these two possibilities and thus understand the role of SiO as a chemical tracer of past star-formation episodes in massive protoclusters.

description: The current study presents the results of a research conducted at the University of Patras to measure 120 university students’ of Letters and Philosophy attitudes towards teaching History. Additionally, it proposes a valid and reliable instrument for the measurement of preservice teachers’ attitudes towards teaching History in secondary education. The development of the instrument is expected to fulfill the need to measure History teachers’ attitudes about four dimensions: anxiety, perceived benefits, self-efficacy and perceived difficulties, which were found to affect teachers’ attitudes towards History teaching, according to the review of the literature. The exploratory factor analysis indicated satisfactory construct validity and reliability of the instrument. The data analysis showed that preservice teachers demonstrate medium levels of anxiety and self-efficacy. Furthermore, they acknowledge the benefits of History teaching to students’ intellectual development and social prosperity, even though they perceive History as a demanding subject in the school curriculum. The research results suggest further research on the field and advocate preservice History teachers’ support with academic courses focused on teaching methodology and effective strategies in History, internship programs, and counseling during their university education.

description: We argue that a hidden-charm pentaquark recently observed in weak decays of $Λ_{b}$ can be produced in proton-nucleus collisions without electroweak intermediaries. We analyze the production cross-section for several scenarios of internal structure and find that a cross-section is sizable. This process can be studied both in collider as well as in fixed-target experiments. In the former case, the pentaquarks are produced at very forward rapidities, whereas in the latter case, pentaquarks are produced with relatively small rapidities and can be easily detected via invariant mass distribution of a forward $J/ψ$ and a comoving proton. Additionally, the suggested process allows to check the existence of a neutral pentaquark $P_{c}^{0}$ (an isospin partner of $P_{c}^{+}$) predicted in several models. The rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of pentaquarks could provide comprehensive information about the $\bar{c}c$ component of this exotic baryon.
