description: In the contemporary landscape of global competition and rapidly evolving technology and economies, the pervasive challenge of graduate unemployment looms large across nations, posing a critical issue for policy-makers and educators alike (Keech, 2006). This quandary is further compounded by a surge in the number of unemployed graduates emerging from Higher Education Institutions (HEI) (Rok, 2013). The prevalence of unemployment among university graduates is not solely a consequence of job scarcity; rather, it is exacerbated by the scarcity of candidates equipped with the requisite employable skills sought by employers (Emeh, Nwanguma, & Abaroh, 2012; Pitan, 2016; Judd et al., 2015).This abstract delves into the multifaceted dimensions of the global challenge of graduate unemployment, with a particular focus on the Higher Education landscape. Drawing on empirical evidence, the narrative explores the gravity of the situation, exemplified by statistics from Lesotho, where an estimated 7,500 graduates annually enter the labor market, with half facing unemployment challenges, and 19% of them originating from HEIs (Central Bank, 2012; Khaola, 2010). This stark reality underscores a pressing need to dissect the root causes, with an emphasis on the role of skills, or the lack thereof, in hindering graduates' employability.

description: We present a calculation of the total cross section for top quark production based on a new perturbative resummation of gluon radiative corrections to the basic QCD subprocesses. We use Principal Value Resummation to calculate all relevant large threshold corrections. Advantages of this method include its independence from arbitrary infrared cutoffs and specification of the perturbative regime of applicability. For $p\bar{p}$ collisions at center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=1.8$TeV and a top mass of 175 GeV, we compute $σ(t\bar{t})=5.52^{+0.07}_{-0.45}pb$.

description: The power of the gaze. The nightmare of cages. Marco Bellocchio’s cinema lives between these two extremes. At the beginning of Bella addormentata a character, looking straight into the camera: his interest is to involve the audience. This scene is an example of Bellocchio’s ability to generate space for both confrontation and interaction with the viewer and represent the way and the focal point of Bellocchio’s filmaking. The gaze that the characters of Bellocchio’s films turn to the audience is an exhortation: let’s not be complicit in any power.

description: We determine all the terms that are gauge-invariant up to a total spacetime derivative ("semi-invariant terms") for gauged non-linear sigma models. Assuming that the isotropy subgroup $H$ of the gauge group is compact or semi-simple, we show that (non-trivial) such terms exist only in odd dimensions and are equivalent to the familiar Chern-Simons terms for the subgroup $H$. Various applications are mentioned, including one to the gauging of the Wess-Zumino-Witten terms in even spacetime dimensions. Our approach is based on the analysis of the descent equation associated with semi-invariant terms.

description: The so-called leaking STEM pipeline (dropout in STEM education) has been the subject of many studies. The large interest of scholars in plausible causes of this leakage has resulted in a number of meta-reviews describing factors at system, school and student level related to interest and persistence in STEM education. The STEM pipeline discussion has also resulted in a large number of programmes aimed at enhancing STEM interest and persistence in STEM education. Although these programmes have been widely evaluated, there seems to be no consensus about which interventions are successful in raising interest in STEM or persistence in STEM education. This study reports the results of a systematic review of empirical studies in which the effectiveness of STEM-related interventions are assessed. Initially, 538 studies were found. The quality analyses showed that only a few of these evaluation studies are designed in such a way that it is likely that the found effects are caused by the intervention. Although some potentially effective interventions were found, this review shows that there is still a need for research into the effectiveness of those programmes, especially with regard to programmes preventing talented and initially motivated STEM students to drop out of STEM education.

description: Estimation of mutual information between random variables has become crucial in a range of fields, from physics to neuroscience to finance. Estimating information accurately over a wide range of conditions relies on the development of flexible methods to describe statistical dependencies among variables, without imposing potentially invalid assumptions on the data. Such methods are needed in cases that lack prior knowledge of their statistical properties and that have limited sample numbers. Here we propose a powerful and generally applicable information estimator based on non-parametric copulas. This estimator, called the non-parametric copula-based estimator (NPC), is tailored to take into account detailed stochastic relationships in the data independently of the data's marginal distributions. The NPC estimator can be used both for continuous and discrete numerical variables and thus provides a single framework for the mutual information estimation of both continuous and discrete data. By extensive validation on artificial samples drawn from various statistical distributions, we found that the NPC estimator compares well against commonly used alternatives. Unlike methods not based on copulas, it allows an estimation of information that is robust to changes of the details of the marginal distributions. Unlike parametric copula methods, it remains accurate regardless of the precise form of the interactions between the variables. In addition, the NPC estimator had accurate information estimates even at low sample numbers, in comparison to alternative estimators. The NPC estimator therefore provides a good balance between general applicability to arbitrarily shaped statistical dependencies in the data and shows accurate and robust performance when working with small sample sizes.

description: For the past decades a rare subclass of cataclysmic variables (CV), with magnetized white dwarfs (WD) as accretors has been studied and called intermediate polars (IP). They have been discussed as the main contributor to the diffuse X-ray emission due to unresolved point sources close to the Galactic center (GC) and in the Galactic bulge (GB). In an ongoing X-ray survey (0.5-10 keV energy band) of about 3 deg x 3 deg around the GC with the XMM-Newton observatory we conducted a systematic search for transient X-ray sources. Promising systems were analyzed for spectral, timing, and multi-wavelength properties to constrain their nature. We discovered a new highly variable (factor $\mathrm{\gtrsim{20}}$) X-ray source about 1.25 deg south of the GC. We found evidence making the newly discovered system a candidate IP. The X-ray light curve shows a period of $\mathrm{511\pm10 s}$ which can be interpreted as the spin period of the WD. The X-ray spectrum is well fit by a bremsstrahlung model with a temperature of $\mathrm{13.9\pm2.5 keV}$, suggesting a WD mass of $\mathrm{0.4-0.5 M_\odot}$. Among many candidates we could not identify a blue optical counterpart as would be expected for IPs. The high X-ray absorption and absence of a clear optical counterpart suggest that the source is most likely located in the GB. This would make the system a transient IP (GK Per class) with especially high peak X-ray luminosity and therefore a very faint X-ray transient (VFXT).

A very strong dependence arises on the density matrix's degeneracy which gives a large separation in the scaling of maximum subsystem complexity with number of qubits (linear compared to exponential). I also investigate several cases where the uncomplexity of quantum states are superadditive and present some challenges and progress in showing that the relation holds in complete generality.

description: We theoretically investigate normal-state properties of an ultracold Fermi gas with an orbital Feshbach resonance (OFR). Recently, OFR has attracted much attention as a promising pairing mechanism to realize a superfluid 173Yb Fermi gas. Including pairing fluctuations within a T-matrix approximation, and removing effects of an experimentally inaccessible deep bound state, we evaluate strong-coupling corrections to single-particle excitations. With increasing the strength of an OFR-induced tunable pairing interaction, the open channel is shown to exhibit the pseudogap phenomenon in the BCS-BEC crossover region, as in the case of a broad magnetic Feshbach resonance (MFR) in 6Li and 40K Fermi gases. We also show that the strong pairing interaction affects the closed channel, leading to the coexistence of particle and hole branches in the single-particle spectral weight. Since the latter phenomenon cannot be observed in the conventional MFR case, it may be viewed as a characteristic strong-coupling phenomenon peculiar to the OFR case.

description: Observation of topological phases beyond two-dimension (2D) has been an open challenge for ultracold atoms. Here, we realize for the first time a 3D spin-orbit coupled nodal-line semimetal in an optical lattice and observe the bulk line nodes with ultracold fermions. The realized topological semimetal exhibits an emergent magnetic group symmetry. This allows to detect the nodal lines by effectively reconstructing the 3D topological band from a series of measurements of integrated spin textures, which precisely render spin textures on the parameter-tuned magnetic-group-symmetric planes. The detection technique can be generally applied to explore 3D topological states of similar symmetries. Furthermore, we observe the band inversion lines from topological quench dynamics, which are bulk counterparts of Fermi arc states and connect the Dirac points, reconfirming the realized topological band. Our results demonstrate the first approach to effectively observe 3D band topology, and open the way to probe exotic topological physics for ultracold atoms in high dimensions.

description: Wide local excision of the primary tumour is the mainstay of treatment for melanoma patients. The aims of this study were to assess the patient- and observer-reported long-term scar quality after surgery using the patient and observer scar assessment scale (POSAS) in melanoma patients, to assess the reliability and validity of POSAS, and to identify factors influencing the scar assessment. This cross-sectional clinical study included 320 melanoma patients with primary tumours on the trunk and limbs. Data regarding patients, treatment, scar characteristics and functional outcomes was analysed. Internal consistency, inter-rater reliability, and convergent validity were examined. Factors influencing the patient- and observer-reported scar quality were tested using regression analyses. Results of the POSAS showed an overall good scar quality. The internal consistency of POSAS was good, and the convergent validity was strong. The inter-rater reliability was only moderate. The patients were influenced by the POSAS sub-items: colour, irregularity, thickness and pain. The observer was influenced by the POSAS sub-items: vascularity, surface area, thickness, relief and pliability. Both patient- and observer-reported scar qualities were influenced by age, location, type of superficial suture, keloids and widened scars. Moreover, the patients were influenced by the scar tightness while the observer was influenced by postoperative complications, hypertrophic scars, suture marks and dog ears. In conclusion POSAS is a reliable and valid scar assessment tool. The factors influencing patient- and observer-reported scar quality differed, and better understanding of this may improve treatment and hence patient-reported scar quality.

description: By dimensional reduction of a massive BF theory, a new topological field theory is constructed in (2+1) dimensions. Two different topological terms, one involving a scalar and a Kalb-Ramond fields and another one equivalent to the four-dimensional BF term, are present. We constructed two actions with these topological terms and show that a topological mass generation mechanism can be implemented. Using the non-Chern-Simons topological term, an action is proposed leading to a classical duality relation between Klein-Gordon and Maxwell actions. We also have shown that an action in (2+1) dimensions with the Kalb-Ramond field is related by Buscher's duality transformation to a massive gauge-invariant Stuckelberg-type theory.

description: The statistical properties of dynamically triangulated manifolds (DT mfds) in terms of the geodesic distance have been studied numerically. The string susceptibility exponents for the boundary surfaces in three-dimensional DT mfds were measured numerically. For spherical boundary surfaces, we obtained a result consistent with the case of a two-dimensional spherical DT surface described by the matrix model. This gives a correct method to reconstruct two-dimensional random surfaces from three-dimensional DT mfds. Furthermore, a scaling property of the volume distribution of minimum neck baby universes was investigated numerically in the case of three and four dimensions, and we obtain a common scaling structure near to the critical points belonging to the strong coupling phase in both dimensions. We have evidence for the existence of a common fractal structure in three- and four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity.

description: State-of-the-art representations of volumetric multi-scale shape and structure can be classified into three broad categories: continuous, continuous-from-discrete, and discrete representations. We propose modeling micro-structure with a class of discrete Corner-Sharing Tetrahedra (CoSTs). CoSTs can represent bar-joint, tensegrity, line-incidence, and similar constraint systems that capture local physical constraints and global multi-scale properties for design and analysis. The paper develops a palette of simple geometry processing operations on CoSTs including graph manipulation, hierarchical refinement, randomization, and generating associated continuous representations.

description: Typical of modern quantum technologies employing nanomechanical oscillators is to demand few mechanical quantum excitations, for instance, to prolong coherence times of a particular task or, to engineer a specific non-classical state. For this reason, we devoted the present work to exhibit how to bring an initial thermalized nanomechanical oscillator near to its ground state. Particularly, we focus on extending the novel results of D. D. B. Rao \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{117}, 077203 (2016), where a mechanical object can be heated up, squeezed, or cooled down near to its ground state through conditioned single-spin measurements. In our work, we study a similar iterative spin-mechanical system when $N$ spins interact with the mechanical oscillator. Here, we have also found that the postselection procedure acts as a discarding process, i.e., we steer the mechanics to the ground state by dynamically filtering its vibrational modes. We show that when considering symmetric collective spin postselection, the inclusion of $N$ spins into the quantum dynamics results highly beneficial. In particular, decreasing the total number of iterations to achieve the ground-state, with a success rate of probability comparable with the one obtained from the single-spin case.

description: We derive several closed-form expressions for the fidelity susceptibility~(FS) of the anisotropic $XY$ model in the transverse field. The basic idea lies in a partial fraction expansion of the expression so that all the terms are related to a simple fraction or its derivative. The critical points of the model are reiterated by the FS, demonstrating its validity for characterizing the phase transitions. Moreover, the critical exponents $ν$ associated with the correlation length in both critical regions are successfully extracted by the standard finite-size scaling analysis.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: We present a new method to study the characteristic scales of collapse and fragmentation in galactic disks. Clump formation is seeded in simulations via controlled perturbations with a specified wavelength and velocity. These are applied to otherwise quiet gas disks ranging from analogues of present day spirals to gas-rich, high-redshift galaxies. The results are compared to linear theory, turbulently perturbed disks and observations. The results reflect the expectations of linear, non-axisymmetric theory with a finite window for growth into a bound clump. We identify two new modes of clump formation: rotation-driven fission and fragmentation of tidal tails, though both are expected to rarely contribute to clump formation in observed disks. We find that bound clumps are generally much smaller than the so-called Toomre mass. The preferred scale for fragmentation increases with the disk gas mass but cannot produce bound objects larger than $\sim10^9$ M$_{\odot}$. The most likely bound clump mass increases from $3\times10^6$ in low mass disks up to $5\times10^8$ M$_{\odot}$. We conclude that observed massive stellar and gaseous clumps on 1 kpc scales at high redshift are most likely aggregates of many initially distinct bound clumps.

Quantum Field Kinetics of QCD: Quark-Gluon Transport Theory for Lightcone Dominated Processes

description: A quantum kinetic formalism is developed to study the dynamical interplay of quantum and statistical-kinetic properties of non-equilibrium multi-parton systems produced in high-energy QCD processes. The approach provides the means to follow the quantum dynamics in both space-time and energy-momentum, starting from an arbitrary initial configuration of high-momentum quarks and gluons. Using a generalized functional integral representation and adopting the `closed-time-path' Green function techniques, a self-consistent set of equations of motions is obtained: a Ginzburg-Landau equation for a possible color background field, and Dyson-Schwinger equations for the 2-point functions of the gluon and quark fields. By exploiting the `two-scale nature' of light-cone dominated QCD processes, i.e. the separation between the quantum scale that specifies the range of short-distance quantum fluctuations, and the kinetic scale that characterizes the range of statistical binary inter- actions, the quantum-field equations of motion are converted into a correspon- ding set of `renormalization equations' and `transport equations'. The former describe renormalization and dissipation effects through the evolution of the spectral density of individual, dressed partons, whereas the latter determine the statistical occurrence of scattering processes among these dressed partons. The renormalization equations and the transport equations are coupled, and hence must be solved self-consistently. This amounts to evolving the multi-parton system, from a specified initial configuration, in time and full 7-dimensional phase-space. This description provides a proba- bilistic interpretation and is therefore of important practical value for the solution of the dynamical equations of motion, e.g. by Monte Carlo simulation.

description: The loop algebra construction by Allison, Berman, Faulkner, and Pianzola, describes graded-central-simple algebras with split centroid in terms of central simple algebras graded by a quotient of the original grading group. Here the restriction on the centroid is removed, at the expense of allowing some deformations (cocycle twists) of the loop algebras.

description: We forecast the sensitivity of thirty-five different combinations of future Cosmic Microwave Background and Large Scale Structure data sets to cosmological parameters and to the total neutrino mass. We work under conservative assumptions accounting for uncertainties in the modelling of systematics. In particular, for galaxy redshift surveys, we remove the information coming from non-linear scales. We use Bayesian parameter extraction from mock likelihoods to avoid Fisher matrix uncertainties. Our grid of results allows for a direct comparison between the sensitivity of different data sets. We find that future surveys will measure the neutrino mass with high significance and will not be substantially affected by potential parameter degeneracies between neutrino masses, the density of relativistic relics, and a possible time-varying equation of state of Dark Energy.
