description: We introduce and study a 2-parameter family of unitarily invariant probability measures on the space of infinite Hermitian matrices. We show that the decomposition of a measure from this family on ergodic components is described by a determinantal point process on the real line. The correlation kernel for this process is explicitly computed. At certain values of parameters the kernel turns into the well-known sine kernel which describes the local correlation in Circular and Gaussian Unitary Ensembles. Thus, the random point configuration of the sine process is interpreted as the random set of ``eigenvalues'' of infinite Hermitian matrices distributed according to the corresponding measure.

Surface Chemistry Studies of Transition Metal Oxides: Titanium Oxide and Iron Oxide
Creators: Li, Zhisheng
Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: Chemistry

description: Surface chemistry studies of two transition-metal oxides: titanium oxide and iron oxide are presented, which are focused on thermal induced chemistry using proximal probe imaging and spectroscopy. In the first, using single crystal of rutile TiO2 (110), arrays of nano-scale locally varying surface strain field were generated by introducing highly pressurized nanoscale argon clusters 4-11 layers below the surface. The characteristics of the argon clusters are explored through STM tip-assisted surface excavation, combining with a continuum mechanical model. This work experimentally demonstrates that surface elastic strain influences the adsorption energy of adsorbates significantly and, thus, can be used for applications of surface nanopatterning. As a comparison with work on nanoscale, two forms of titanium oxide in reduced dimensionalities are experimentally synthesized and investigated for their surface reactivity: 3D nano TiO2 crystals and monolayer TiO films, both of which are supported on single crystal Au(111) surface. This work demonstrates that both nano crystals and ultrathin films of titanium oxide exhibit distinctive surface structural and catalytic properties compared to the bulk surface terminations.  In particular, TiO2 nano crystals are more catalytically active and provide a new dissociation channel for adsorbed 2-propanol, a probe molecule chosen for this study. In the process of undertaking this research, it was found that monolayer TiO film can be used to employ moire varied chemistry.   In particular, a long range pinwheel-shaped surface moiré pattern due to gradual shift of atom registry on Au (111), was found to further influence the adsorption geometry of adsorbates and to cause thereby smoothly varying sites for reactions.
      	In the case, of the second transition metal oxide surface, Fe3O4 (111), a comparison was made with rutile TiO2 (110) surface, Fe3O4 (111) is a polar surface with apparent surface charge, and thus undergoes various surface reconstructions. Therefore, its surface structure is of great complexity. Our work shows that the reaction of methanol on this iron-oxide surface is highly sensitive to atomic-level surface reconstructions.

description: We define interacting particle systems on configurations of the integer lattice (with values in some finite alphabet) by the superimposition of two dynamics: a substitution process with finite range rates, and a circular permutation mechanism(called "cut-and-paste") with possibly unbounded range. The model is motivated by the dynamics of DNA sequences: we consider an ergodic model for substitutions, the RN+YpR model ([BGP08]), with three particular cases, the models JC+cpg,T92+cpg, and RNc+YpR. We investigate whether they remain ergodic with the additional cut-and-paste mechanism, which models insertions and deletions of nucleotides. Using either duality or attractiveness techniques, we provide various sets of sufficient conditions, concerning only the substitution rates, for ergodicity of the superimposed process. They imply ergodicity of the models JC+cpg, T92+cpg as well as the attractive RNc+YpR, all with an additional cut-and-paste mechanism.

description: We show that in the Einstein-Cartan gravity it is possible to obtain a relation between Hubble's expansion and the global rotation (vorticity) of the Universe. Gravitational coupling can be reduced to dimensionless quantity of order unity, fixing the scalar mass density and the resulting negative cosmological constant at spacelike infinity. Current estimates of the expansion and rotation (see also astro-ph/9703082) of the Universe favour the massive spinning particles as candidate particles for cold and hot dark matter. Nodland and Ralston vorticity (Phys. Rev. Lett. 78 (1997) 3043) overestimates the value favoured by the Einstein-Cartan gravity for three orders of magnitude.

description: We consider the chaotic dynamics of the interaction between an ensemble of two-level atoms in a high-Q Fabry-Perot cavity with a single mode of self-consistent field and with an external amplitude-modulated field. It is shown that in the case of an exact atom-field resonance and at the initial population of the atomic ground state, the Hamiltonian chaos in the system is always transient. The differences in the chaotic dynamics for the Fabry-Perot and ring cavity geometries are considered. The conditions for the experimental observation of the transient Hamiltonian chaos are discussed.

description: The global shape (topology) of the Universe is not derivable from General Relativity but should be determined by observations. Here we propose a method for estimation of this shape using patterns of fundamental physical parameters, for example the spectrum of fermion masses. We suppose that this pattern might appear because of specific topology at sub-quark level. We restrict ourselves to the analysis of a topological object described by F.Klein in 1882 and show that its properties could give rise to structures reproducing three families of leptons and quarks.

description: We use scattering theoretic methods to prove strong dynamical and exponential localization for one dimensional, continuum, Anderson-type models with singular distributions; in particular the case of a Bernoulli distribution is covered. The operators we consider model alloys composed of at least two distinct types of randomly dispersed atoms. Our main tools are the reflection and transmission coefficients for compactly supported single site perturbations of a periodic background which we use to verify the necessary hypotheses of multi-scale analysis. We show that non-reflectionless single sites lead to a discrete set of exceptional energies away from which localization occurs.

Long-term Evolution of the Phreatic Surface in a Tailings Dam following Closure
Creators: name: Beier, Nicholas A.
name: Schafer, Haley L.
name: Macciotta, Renato
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Following mine closure, tailings dams remain on the site, eventually becoming part of the landscape. Historically, it was common practice to design these structures with consideration of failure modes that could occur during the mine’s active life. This is problematic as the life of the tailings dam is expected to far exceed the life of the mine. Further, the importance of reclamation and decommissioning through the processes of sustainable mining practice is a relatively recent development in the mining industry. Despite this, there is limited information regarding how a tailings dam ages in perpetuity. The evolution of the phreatic surface in a tailings dam is a potential area of uncertainty associated with the closure phase of a tailings dam. Changes in the phreatic surface can act as a trigger for failure of different elements in a tailings dam following closure. Consequently, understanding the long-term evolution of the phreatic surface in a tailings dam is essential to the process of reclamation and closure and is an integral component of the long-term risk management of tailings dams. This paper aims to evaluate this commonly made assumption through the analysis of the evolution of the phreatic surface of an oil sands tailings dam case study in Alberta, Canada in response to different scenarios, including: drain failure, formation of ponds on the reclamation surface, and climate change. The seepage modelling demonstrated under certain scenarios, drains failing and ponds forming on the reclamation surface had the potential to cause a rise in the phreatic surface in the case study dam. Longterm seepage modelling can also be used to help guide monitoring and maintenance plans for closure works, which can be anchored back to the observational method or an adaptive management framework.

description: We study Yamabe metrics, and the moduli space of Yamabe metrics, on an arbitrary closed 3-manifold M. The main focus is on the boundary behavior of the moduli space, i.e. the behavior of degenerating sequences of unit volume Yamabe metrics on M. It is proved that such degenerations, when non-trivial in a certain sense, are described by solutions of the static vacuum Einstein equations. Natural conditions are given for the non-triviality of degenerating sequences and relations with Palais-Smale sequences for the Einstein-Hilbert functional are explored. A number of new examples, both trivial and non-trivial,of degenerating sequences are constructed. It is also proved that the only complete static vacuum solution without horizon is the flat metric, generalizing a classical result of Lichnerowicz.

description: We report the observation of tens of minor lines of the combinational spin-flip Raman scattering in a CdTe:Mn quantum well by means of the high-resolution optical spectroscopy. Classification of this manifold leads to four characteristic values of energy, that correspond to four different types of pair clusters of Mn ions: the nearest, second, third etc. neighbors. All the four energies show up in a single experiment with a very high precision, providing experimental grounds for a deeper understanding of the d-d exchange interactions in a diluted magnetic semiconductor and demonstrating the capacity of the employed method. The major (nearest-neighbor) exchange constant J_1 = 6.15 K was found to consent with its previously reported value. Other detected characteristic energies are as follows: J_{(2)} = 1.80 K, J_{(3)} = 1.39 K, J_{(4)} = 0.81 K.

description: Periodic orbit theory is an effective tool for the analysis of classical and quantum chaotic systems. In this paper we extend this approach to stochastic systems, in particular to mappings with additive noise. The theory is cast in the standard field theoretic formalism, and weak noise perturbation theory written in terms of Feynman diagrams. The result is a stochastic analog of the next-to-leading hbar corrections to the Gutzwiller trace formula, with long time averages calculated from periodic orbits of the deterministic system. The perturbative corrections are computed analytically and tested numerically on a simple 1-dimensional system.

description: We study dynamical properties of the billiard flow on convex polyhedra away from a neighbourhood of the non-smooth part of the boundary, called ``pockets''. We prove there are only finitely many immersed periodic tubes missing the pockets and moreover establish a new quantitative estimate for the lengths of such tubes. This extends well-known results in dimension $2$. We then apply these dynamical results to prove a quantitative Laplace eigenfunction mass concentration near the pockets of convex polyhedral billiards. As a technical tool for proving our concentration results on irrational polyhedra, we establish a control-theoretic estimate on a product space with an almost-periodic boundary condition. This extends previously known control estimates for periodic boundary conditions, and seems to be of independent interest.

Fluid dynamics--Simulation methods

description: Surface-only simulation methods for fluid dynamics are those that perform computation only on a surface representation, without relying on any volumetric discretization. Such methods have superior asymptotic complexity in time and memory than the traditional volumetric discretization approaches, and thus are more tractable for simulation of complex fluid phenomena. Although for most computer graphics applications and many engineering applications, the interior flow inside the fluid phases is typically not of interest, the vast majority of existing numerical techniques still rely on discretization of the volumetric domain. My research first tackles the mesh-based surface tracking problem in the multimaterial setting, and then proposes surface-only simulation solutions for two scenarios: the soap-films and bubbles, and the general 3D liquids. Throughout these simulation approaches, all computation takes place on the surface, and volumetric discretization is entirely eliminated.

description: We show that Hermitian matrix models support the occurrence of a new type of phase transition characterised by dispersive regularisation of the order parameter near the critical point. Using the identification of the partition function with a solution of a reduction of the Toda hierarchy, known as Volterra system, we argue that the singularity is resolved by the onset of a multi-dimensional dispersive shock of the order parameter in the space of coupling constants. This analysis explains the origin and mechanism leading to the emergence of chaotic behaviours observed in M^6 matrix models and extends its validity to even nonlinearity of arbitrary order.

description: Complex oxide heterointerfaces and van der Waals heterostructures present two versatile but intrinsically different platforms for exploring emergent quantum phenomena and designing new functionalities. The rich opportunity offered by the synergy between these two classes of materials, however, is yet to be charted. Here, we report an unconventional nonlinear optical filtering effect resulting from the interfacial polar alignment between monolayer MoS$_2$ and a neighboring ferroelectric oxide thin film. The second harmonic generation response at the heterointerface is either substantially enhanced or almost entirely quenched by an underlying ferroelectric domain wall depending on its chirality, and can be further tailored by the polar domains. Unlike the extensively studied coupling mechanisms driven by charge, spin, and lattice, the interfacial tailoring effect is solely mediated by the polar symmetry, as well explained via our density functional theory calculations, pointing to a new material strategy for the functional design of nanoscale reconfigurable optical applications.

description: Maximally supersymmetric SO(10) and SU(6) unified theories are constructed on the orbifold T^2/(Z_2 x Z'_2), with one length scale R_5 taken much larger than the other, R_6. The effective theory below 1/R_6 is found to be the highly successful SU(5) theory in 5D with natural doublet-triplet splitting, no proton decay from operators of dimension four or five, unified mass relations for heavier generations only, and a precise prediction for gauge coupling unification. A more unified gauge symmetry, and the possibility of Higgs doublets being components of the higher dimensional gauge multiplet, are therefore compatible with a large energy interval where physics is described by SU(5) gauge symmetry in 5D. This leads to the distinctive branching ratios for proton decay from SU(5) gauge boson exchange, p -> l^+ pi^0, l^+ K^0, \bar{nu} pi^+, \bar{nu} K^+ (l = e, mu), for well-motivated locations for matter. Several phenomenological features of the higher unified gauge symmetry are discussed, including the role of an extra U(1) gauge symmetry, which survives compactification, in the generation of neutrino masses.

description: Purpose: To identify different income trajectories after a rejected disability pension application and to analyze socio-demographic and disability process related determinants of these trajectories. Methods: Finnish residents aged 18–58 years with a first rejected disability pension application in 2010 (N = 3683) were followed for 48 months with register data. We performed a sequence analysis of six income sources (employment, unemployment benefit, sickness allowance, rehabilitation benefit, awarded disability pensions, other/unknown). Multinomial logistic regression was used in analyses. Results: Four clusters were identified, displaying unemployment, awarded disability pension, employment, or unknown source as the primary source of post-rejection income. Transitions between income sources were frequent, especially in the employment and unemployment clusters. Using the awarded pension cluster as the reference group, previous unemployment raised the odds of unemployment cluster membership the most. Similarly, previous employment raised the odds of employment cluster the most. A somatic rather than mental disorder and being under 50 years old raised the odds of being in the unemployment and employment clusters. Conclusions: After a rejected disability pension, main income paths include unemployment benefits, re-applied disability pension, and fragmented employment. Labor market and sickness history and age are associated with the probability of these paths.Implications for RehabilitationRejected disability pension applicants should be offered medical or vocational rehabilitation, to enable sustained labor market participation.Partial disability pension, supported by rehabilitation is one solution when a full-time labor market participation is not a realistic option. Rejected disability pension applicants should be offered medical or vocational rehabilitation, to enable sustained labor market participation. Partial disability pension, supported by rehabilitation is one solution when a full-time labor market participation is not a realistic option.

description: Topological insulators in odd dimensions are characterized by topological numbers. We prove the well-known relation between the topological number given by the Chern character of the Berry curvature and the Chern-Simons level of the low energy effective action for a general class of Hamiltonians bilinear in the fermion with general U(1) gauge interactions including non-minimal couplings by an explicit calculation. A series of Ward-Takahashi identities are crucial to relate the Chern-Simons level to a winding number, which could then be directly reduced to Chern character of Berry curvature by carrying out the integral over the temporal momenta.

description: Superbeams (SB) and Neutrino Factories (NF) are not alternative facilities for exploring neutrino oscillation physics, but successive steps. The correct strategy is to contemplate the combination of their expected physics results. We show its important potential on the disappearance of fake degenerate solutions in the simultaneous measurement of $θ_{13}$ and leptonic CP violation. Intrinsic, sign($Δm_{13}^2$) and $θ_{23}$ degeneracies are shown to be extensively eliminated when the results from one NF baseline and a SB facility are combined. A key point is the different average neutrino energy and baseline of the facilities. For values of $θ_{13}$ near its present limit, the short NF baseline, e.g. L=732 km,becomes, after such a combination, a very interesting distance. For smaller $θ_{13}$, an intermediate NF baseline of $O(3000$km) is still required.

description: We consider Shiraishi's metrics on the moduli space of extreme black holes. We interpret the simplification in the pattern of N-body interactions that he observed in terms of the recent picture of black holes in four and five dimensions as composites, made up of intersecting branes. We then show that the geometry of the moduli space of a class of black holes in five and nine dimensions is hyper-Kähler with torsion, and octonionic-Kähler with torsion, respectively. For this, we examine the geometry of point particle models with extended world-line supersymmetry and show that both of the above geometries arise naturally in this context. In addition, we construct a large class of hyper-Kähler with torsion and octonionic-Kähler with torsion geometries in various dimensions. We also present a brane interpretation of our results.

description: Hydraulic Dewatered Stacking (HDS) is an engineered co-disposal approach that uses a fines-free sand, derived from the tailings themselves, to deliver robust and effective omnipresent drainage channels throughout the tailings facility, accelerating consolidation and dewatering. Since its inception in 2019, Anglo American (AA) have rapidly developed the science behind the new tailings system and designed, built, and commissioned a bespoke 150,000 m³ capacity greenfield tailings facility at the El Soldado Mine in Chile. This paper presents the results of the first nine months of operation, detailing the lessons learned from the highly instrumented facility. The demonstration has delivered significant insights into real-time moisture content and consolidation monitoring, revealing the zone of influence of the drainage channels. Lessons have been learned on dealing with extensive instrumentation with a view to developing fit-for-purpose real-time monitoring solutions for tailings facilities. HDS is delivering on the promise shown through proof of concept (PoC) testing and modelling and has generated significant interest from the industry. The accelerated roll-out of the technology is under-way, with studies completed or in progress at both AA sites and third-party facilities.

description: We identify a strong Ly-alpha damping wing profile in the spectrum of the quasar P183+05 at z=6.4386. Given the detection of several narrow metal absorption lines at z=6.40392, the most likely explanation for the absorption profile is that it is due to a damped Ly-alpha system. However, in order to match the data a contribution of an intergalactic medium 5-38% neutral or additional weaker absorbers near the quasar is also required. The absorption system presented here is the most distant damped Ly-alpha system currently known. We estimate an HI column density ($10^{20.68\pm0.25}\,$cm$^{-2}$), metallicity ([O/H]$=-2.92\pm 0.32$), and relative chemical abundances of a system consistent with a low-mass galaxy during the first Gyr of the universe. This object is among the most metal-poor damped Ly-alpha systems known and, even though it is observed only ~850 Myr after the big bang, its relative abundances do not show signatures of chemical enrichment by Population III stars.

description: In this dissertation we solve the nonidentifiability problem of Archimedean copula models based on dependent censored data (see [Wang, 2012]). We give a set of identifiability conditions for a special class of bivariate frailty models. Our simulation results show that our proposed model is identifiable under our proposed conditions. We use EM algorithm to estimate unknown parameters and the proposed estimation approach can be applied to fit dependent censored data when the dependence is of research interest. The marginal survival functions can be estimated using the copula-graphic estimator (see [Zheng and Klein, 1995] and [Rivest and Wells, 2001]) or the estimator proposed by [Wang, 2014]. We also propose two model selection procedures for Archimedean copula models, one for uncensored data and the other one for right censored bivariate data. Our simulation results are similar to that of [Wang and Wells, 2000] and suggest that both procedures work quite well. The idea of our proposed model selection procedure originates from the model selection procedure for Archimedean copula models proposed by [Wang and Wells, 2000] for right censored bivariate data using the L2 norm corresponding to the Kendall distribution function. A suitable bootstrap procedure is yet to be suggested for our method. We further propose a new parameter estimator and a simple goodness-of-fit test for Archimedean copula models when the bivariate data is under fixed left truncation. Our simulation results suggest that  our procedure needs to be improved so that it can be more powerful, reliable and efficient. In our strategy, to obtain estimates for the unknown parameters, we heavily exploit the concept of truncated tau (a measure of association established by [Manatunga and Oakes, 1996] for left truncated data). The idea of our goodness of fit test originates from the goodness-of-fit test for Archimedean copula models proposed by [Wang, 2010] for right censored bivariate data.
Phase space embedding of electrocardiograms

description: We study properties of the human electrocardiogram under the working hypothesis that fluctuations beyond the regular structure of single cardiac cycles are unpredictable. On this background we discuss the possibility to use the phase space embedding method for this kind of signal. In particular, the specific nature of the stochastic or high dimensional component allows to use phase space embeddings for certain signal processing tasks. As practical applications, we discuss noise filtering, fetal ECG extraction, and the automatic detection of clinically relevant features. The main purpose of the paper is to connect results of embedding theory which had not been previously applied in practise, and practical applications which had not yet been justified theoretically.
