description: DO has implemented and calibrated a KT jet algorithm for the first time in a ppbar collider. We present two results based on 1992-1996 data which were recently published: the subjet multiplicity in quark and gluon jets and the central inclusive jet cross section. The measured ratio between subjet multiplicities in gluon and quark jets is consistent with theoretical predictions and previous experimental values. NLO pQCD predictions of the KT inclusive jet cross section agree with the DO measurement, although marginally in the low pT range. We also present a preliminary measurement of thrust cross sections, which indicates the need to include higher than alpha_s^3 terms and resumation in the theoretical calculations.

 Remarks. In the original description Brèthes specifically stated that he had studied one male from Buenos Aires collected by A. Zotta in 1905. Two specimens bear almost identical data on the labels and fit in Brèthes’s description, therefore they are considered syntypes and a lectotype is here designated. The lectotype bears the original label handwritten by Brèthes reading “ Evania platensis ”, the paralectotype bears a small label with the number 10, which corresponds to the name Evania platensis in Brethes’s original notes.

description: Among many submissions to the NIST post-quantum cryptography (PQC) project, NewHope is a promising key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) based on the Ring-Learning with errors (Ring-LWE) problem. Since NewHope is an indistinguishability (IND)-chosen ciphertext attack secure KEM by applying the Fujisaki-Okamoto transform to an IND-chosen plaintext attack secure public key encryption, accurate calculation of decryption failure rate (DFR) is required to guarantee resilience against attacks that exploit decryption failures. However, the current upper bound of DFR on NewHope is rather loose because the compression noise, the effect of encoding/decoding of NewHope, and the approximation effect of centered binomial distribution are not fully considered. Furthermore, since NewHope is a Ring-LWE based cryptosystem, there is a problem of error dependency among error coefficients, which makes accurate DFR calculation difficult. In this paper, we derive much tighter upper bound on DFR than the current upper bound using constraint relaxation and union bound. Especially, the above-mentioned factors are all considered in derivation of new upper bound and the centered binomial distribution is not approximated to subgaussian distribution. In addition, since the error dependency is considered, the new upper bound is much closer to the real DFR than the previous upper bound. Furthermore, the new upper bound is parameterized by using Chernoff-Cramer bound in order to facilitate calculation of new upper bound for the parameters of NewHope. Since the new upper bound is much lower than the DFR requirement of PQC, this DFR margin is used to improve the security and bandwidth efficiency of NewHope. As a result, the security level of NewHope is improved by 7.2 % or bandwidth efficiency is improved by 5.9 %.

description: Previous studies have proven that integrating video signals, as a complementary modality, can facilitate improved performance for speech enhancement (SE). However, video clips usually contain large amounts of data and pose a high cost in terms of computational resources and thus may complicate the SE system. As an alternative source, a bone-conducted speech signal has a moderate data size while manifesting speech-phoneme structures, and thus complements its air-conducted counterpart. In this study, we propose a novel multi-modal SE structure in the time domain that leverages bone- and air-conducted signals. In addition, we examine two ensemble-learning-based strategies, early fusion (EF) and late fusion (LF), to integrate the two types of speech signals, and adopt a deep learning-based fully convolutional network to conduct the enhancement. The experiment results on the Mandarin corpus indicate that this newly presented multi-modal (integrating bone- and air-conducted signals) SE structure significantly outperforms the single-source SE counterparts (with a bone- or air-conducted signal only) in various speech evaluation metrics. In addition, the adoption of an LF strategy other than an EF in this novel SE multi-modal structure achieves better results.

Along the strong-coupling axis up to the phase transition, the low-lying Dirac spectrum of these quantum field theories is well described by random matrix theory and exhibits universal behavior. Related results for gauge theories with minimal coupling are discussed in the chirally symmetric phase and no universality is seen for the microscopic spectral densities.

description: The Langevin dynamics of a self - interacting chain embedded in a quenched random medium is investigated by making use of the generating functional method and one - loop (Hartree) approximation. We have shown how this intrinsic disorder causes different dynamical regimes. Namely, within the Rouse characteristic time interval the anomalous diffusion shows up. The corresponding subdiffusional dynamical exponents have been explicitly calculated and thoroughly discussed. For the larger time interval the disorder drives the center of mass of the chain to a trap or frozen state provided that the Harris parameter, $(Δ/b^d) N^{2 - νd} \ge 1$, where $Δ$ is a disorder strength, $b$ is a Kuhnian segment length, $N$ is a chain length and $ν$ is the Flory exponent. We have derived the general equation for the non - ergodicity function $f(p)$ which characterizes the amplitude of frozen Rouse modes with an index $p = 2πj/N$. The numerical solution of this equation has been implemented and shown that the different Rouse modes freeze up at the same critical disorder strength $Δ_c \sim N^{-γ}$ where the exponent $γ\approx 0.25$ and does not depend from the solvent quality.

Aristotle's Aporia about Being and the One: The Background, Discussion and Solution of a Metaphysical Dilemma

Subjects: Aristotle

description: This dissertation consists of three chapters, each developing one of the three elements of the subtitle. The first, "Aristotle against Eleatic monism", analyses Aristotle's refutation of Eleatic monism in Physics 1.2-3 in parallel with Plato's parricide of Parmenides (Sophist 242b6-5e5) and then compares the Physics' refutation with Aristotle's treatment of the Eleatics in Metaphysics A.3-5. It concludes that from this background Aristotle draws a necessary requirement for his own metaphysical investigation, namely that we regard being as not univocal. The second chapter, "Aristotle's parricide of Plato", completes the parallelism between the Sophist and the Metaphysics by examining Aristotle's formulation and discussion of the eleventh aporia in Metaphysics Beta: "Are being (to on) and the one (to hen) the substance(s) of all things or are they just attributes of some other underlying thing?". It focuses on a particular characteristic of aporia 11, namely its allocation of the two alternatives of the dilemma to Plato and the Pythagoreans on the one hand and to Empedocles and the physicists on the other. Crucially, it shows that Aristotle not only borrows from the Sophist the arguments which he levels against the pluralists, but also turns the Platonic critique of Parmenides against Plato himself. The third chapter, "Aristotle's last word on aporia 11", explains how Aristotle resolves this metaphysical dilemma in Metaphysics I.2. It shows that he does not return to it until he has developed new weapons against Plato and against the Pythagoreans: these are a criterion for what counts and does not count as a substance (provided in Metaphysics Z.13-16) and the definition of unity in terms of indivisibility (formulated in I.1). On this basis, Aristotle claims not only that the one is not itself a substance, but also that it is not the substance of anything. This dissertation has the following three main results. First, it demonstrates that Aristotle's dialectic cannot be regarded as monolithic but needs to be explored on a case-by-case basis. Second, it re-evaluates Aristotle's engagement with his predecessors, in particular the Eleatics. Third, it presents an argument which strongly tells in favour of a unitarian reading of Aristotle's Metaphysics.

description: A Payment for Environmental Services (PES) scheme is defined by Mayrand and Paquin (2004) as a tool “to support positive environmental externalities through the transfer of financial resources from beneficiaries of certain environmental services to those who provide these services or are fiduciaries of environmental resources.” PES schemes can target water services, carbon sequestration and storage, biodiversity protection, watershed protection and landscape beauty. The case study area of the Fond D’or watershed in St. Lucia identifies and values existing watershed services. The Fond D’or watershed is the second largest, comprising of 10,230 acres with twenty-three per cent (23%) of the watershed in Government Forest Reserves. These Government forest reserves are located in the upper watershed while within the middle and lower watershed areas there are many activities including residential settlements, agricultural production (banana cultivation), forestry production, livestock production and ecotourism. This paper specifically focuses on the agricultural sector, mixed farming 24%, other intensive farming 32% and flatland intensive farming 8% which has significant environmental effects. Linking the valuation of these environmental services to a proposed PES scheme can be utilized to combat negative environmental practices and promote environmental sustainability. Further, this proposed PES scheme highlights the possible implications for farmers in terms of possible incomes, environmental practices and overall attitudes towards a change in practices.

description: In recommender systems such as news feed stream, it is essential to optimize the long-term utilities in the continuous user-system interaction processes. Previous works have proved the capability of reinforcement learning in this problem. However, there are many practical challenges to implement deep reinforcement learning in online systems, including low sample efficiency, uncontrollable risks, and excessive variances. To address these issues, we propose a novel reinforcement learning method, namely model-based counterfactual advantage learning (MBCAL). The proposed method takes advantage of the characteristics of recommender systems and draws ideas from the model-based reinforcement learning method for higher sample efficiency. It has two components: an environment model that predicts the instant user behavior one-by-one in an auto-regressive form, and a future advantage model that predicts the future utility. To alleviate the impact of excessive variance when learning the future advantage model, we employ counterfactual comparisons derived from the environment model. In consequence, the proposed method possesses high sample efficiency and significantly lower variance; Also, it is able to use existing user logs to avoid the risks of starting from scratch. In contrast to its capability, its implementation cost is relatively low, which fits well with practical systems. Theoretical analysis and elaborate experiments are presented. Results show that the proposed method transcends the other supervised learning and RL-based methods in both sample efficiency and asymptotic performances.

description: Scalar weak gravity conjectures (SWGCs) attempt to pinpoint the ranges of couplings consistent with a fundamental theory of all interactions. We identify a generic dynamical consequence of these conjectures for cosmology and show that SWGCs imply a particular behavior of the scalar fields in the early universe. A scalar field that develops a large expectation value during inflation must relax to the minimum of effective potential at a later time. SWGCs imply that a homogeneous distribution of the field is unstable with respect to fragmentation into localized lumps, which could potentially lead to significant consequences for cosmology.

Using Strong Lines to Estimate Abundances in Extragalactic HII Regions and Starburst Galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We have used a combination of stellar population synthesis and photoionization models to develop a set of ionization parameter and abundance diagnostics based only on the use of the strong optical emission lines. These models are applicable to both extragalactic HII regions and star-forming galaxies. We show that, because our techniques solve explicitly for both the ionization parameter and the chemical abundance, the diagnostics presented here are an improvement on earlier techniques based on strong emission-line ratios. Our techniques are applicable at all metallicities. In particular, for metallicities above half solar, the ratio [NII]/[OII] provides a very reliable diagnostic since it is ionization parameter independant and does not have a local maximum. This ratio has not been used historically because of worries about reddening corrections. However, we show that the use of classical reddening curves is quite sufficient to allow this [NII]/[OII] diagnostic to be used with confidence as a reliable abundance indicator. The cause of systematic and random errors inherent in previous techniques are discussed, and we present a new `optimal' abundance diagnostic method based on the use of line ratios involving [NII], [OII], [OIII], [SII] and the Balmer lines. This combined diagnostic appears to suffer no apparent systematic errors, can be used over the entire abundance range and significantly reduces the random error inherent in previous techniques. Finally, we give a recommended procedure for the derivation of abundances in the case that only spectra of limited wavelength coverage are available so that the optimal method can no longer be used.

We reduce the problem of search for best clauses to instances of the High-Utility Itemset Mining (HUIM) problem. In the HUIM problem, feature values and their importance are treated as transactions and utilities respectively. We make use of TreeExplainer, a fast and scalable implementation of the Explainable AI tool SHAP, to extract locally important features and their weights from ensemble tree models. Our experiments with UCI standard benchmarks suggest a significant improvement in terms of classification evaluation metrics and running time of the training algorithm compared to ALEPH, a state-of-the-art Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) system.

description: Superconducting circuits for quantum information processing are often described theoretically in terms of a discrete charge, or equivalently, a compact phase/flux, at each node in the circuit. Here we revisit the consequences of lifting this assumption for transmon and Cooper-pair-box circuits, which are constituted from a Josephson junction and a capacitor, treating both the superconducting phase and charge as noncompact variables. The periodic Josephson potential gives rise to a Bloch band structure, characterised by the Bloch quasicharge. We analyse the possibility of creating superpositions of different quasicharge states by transiently shunting inductive elements across the circuit, and suggest a choice of eigenstates in the lowest Bloch band of the spectrum that may support an inherently robust qubit encoding.

description: Nambu mechanics is a generalized Hamiltonian dynamics characterized by an extended phase space and multiple Hamiltonians. In a previous paper [Prog. Theor. Exp. Phys. 2013, 073A01 (2013)] we revealed that the Nambu mechanical structure is hidden in Hamiltonian dynamics, that is, the classical time evolution of variables including redundant degrees of freedom can be formulated as Nambu mechanics. In the present paper we show that the Nambu mechanical structure is also hidden in some quantum or semiclassical dynamics, that is, in some cases the quantum or semiclassical time evolution of expectation values of quantum mechanical operators, including composite operators, can be formulated as Nambu mechanics. We present a procedure to find hidden Nambu structures in quantum/semiclassical systems of one degree of freedom, and give two examples: the exact quantum dynamics of a harmonic oscillator, and semiclassical wave packet dynamics. Our formalism can be extended to many-degrees-of-freedom systems; however, there is a serious difficulty in this case due to interactions between degrees of freedom. To illustrate our formalism we present two sets of numerical results on semiclassical dynamics: from a one-dimensional metastable potential model and a simplified Henon--Heiles model of two interacting oscillators.

description: Tissue-specific transcriptional programs define cancer phenotypes. However, the molecular mechanism behind the transcriptional specificity is mostly unknown, hindering the development of therapeutic approaches. In clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), loss of von Hippel-Lindau tumour suppressor (VHL), seen in 90% of ccRCCs, leads to the stabilization of hypoxia inducible factor HIF2A and aberrant expression of its downstream targets such as the chemokine receptor CXCR4. Activation of HIF2A has been shown to be important for ccRCC tumour initiation and early progression and the expression of CXCR4 promotes metastatic progression in ccRCC. It is unclear, however, how VHL loss results in ccRCC specific tumorigenesis, one possibility being that HIF2A mRNA is expressed at a high enough level only in the cell lineage that eventually forms ccRCCs. To investigate this hypothesis, novel experimental reporter systems were developed to dissect the mechanisms regulating HIF2A mRNA expression and activity. These endogenous HIF2A and CXCR4 reporter systems express an mCherry fluorescent marker at the 3’ end of their respective locus. Homology-directed repair (HDR)- and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)-based CRISPR-Cas9 knock-in strategies were utilized for the development of these systems that involve homology-dependent and minicircle-aided integration, respectively. These reporters were integrated precisely in the genome as evidenced by sequencing. The efficiency of these systems at detecting fluctuations in the mRNA expression of the associated endogenous gene was validated by analysing mCherry fluorescence in cells with either CRISPRi-based HIF2A inactivation or VHL-reintroduction. Moreover, these reporters also proved feasible for genetic screens as shown from an sgRNA enrichment experiment that highlighted sgRNAs targeting regulatory factors within a specific population of cells. These reporter systems were applied with focused CRISPR-Cas9 libraries targeting transcription factors (TF) and chromatin regulators for high-throughput screenings. Our screening data was analysed through a permutation analysis to remove false positive hits. In the HIF2A reporter screen with the TF library and the chromatin library, HIF2A was the sole significant hit, suggesting redundancy within the HIF2A gene regulatory machinery. In sum, I have developed and technically validated novel reporter systems that could aid in the systematic interrogation of cancer transcriptional dependencies, hence paving the way for novel therapeutic approaches.

description: In recent years researchers have begun to reveal the hierarchy of mammalian DNA folding from the 10 nm fibre to the intact whole genome. One of the key approaches used is the single-cell Hi-C. My lab and I developed a single-cell Hi-C protocol that combines imaging and Hi-C processing on the same cell, and I tried to improve the sequencing library processing steps using a commercial Tn5 transposase. My work shows that without significant optimisation the commercial transposase is not compatible with our protocol. Using the protocol, we successfully processed haploid mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and calculated 3D structures of their entire genomes. The structures show several genome-wide features that are highly conserved across all mESCs, including: the genome shape is an ellipsoid; the chromosomes arrange in a Rabl configuration; the A and B compartments form a bowl-like structure; and active enhancers, promoters along with gene expression cluster together in the A compartment. In contrast, relatively local features were found to significantly vary from cell to cell, including the folding of: individual chromosomes, topological-associated domains and loops. We also investigated mESCs in early stages of differentiation using the same single-cell Hi-C protocol. Preliminary analysis of chromosome and genome structures at 24 and 48 hour post differentiation reveals that certain features vary greatly. In particular, the genome shape of cells after 24 hour differentiation is relatively flat, whilst genomes after 48 hour differentiation are both ellipsoid and flat. Interestingly, the shapes of chromosomes from cells expressing the pluripotent marker Rex1 after 24 hour differentiation are similar to the shapes of chromosomes in ES cells; whereas chromosome shapes from cells both after 24 hour differentiation with low Rex1 expression and after 48 hour differentiation are even more varied.

description: A strongly-attractive, two-component Fermi gas of atoms exhibits universal behavior and should be mechanically stable as a consequence of the quantum mechanical requirement of unitarity. This requirement limits the maximum attractive force to a value smaller than that of the outward Fermi pressure. To experimentally demonstrate this stability, we use all-optical methods to produce a highly degenerate, two-component gas of $^6$Li atoms in an applied magnetic field near a Feshbach resonance, where strong interactions are observed. We find that the gas is stable at densities far exceeding that predicted previously for the onset of mechanical instability. Further, we provide a temperature-corrected measurement of an important, universal, many-body parameter which determines the stability--the mean field contribution to the chemical potential in units of the local Fermi energy.

description: Porosity is a property that is conventionally associated with solids. While liquids can have transient pores, these cavities exist as temporary voids between the molecules of the liquid. The idea of permanently porous liquids combines the porosity of solids with the fluid properties of liquids by engineering intrinsic porosity into the liquid state. This class of materials shows potential in applications such as extractions and gas separations. We present the first adaptation of coordination cages into porous liquids by functionalizing a series coordination cages of different sizes and structures with alkylimidazolium and PEG-imidazolium moieties. The alkylimidazolium-functionalized cages showed increased solubility in similarly structured ionic liquids, yielding a Type II porous liquid. The PEG-imidazolium-functionalized cages were liquid at room temperature and acted as Type I porous liquids. Of these cages, a liquid Zn(II)4L4 tetrahedral capsule was chosen for additional characterization and applications. Rheological and thermal analysis of this liquid cage confirmed its fluidity. Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy indicated that the host pores remained empty under solvent-free conditions. This liquid cage was then used for host-guest experiments both in solution and in the neat state. The porous liquid was shown to encapsulate small alcohols shape-selectively, with a preference for alcohols with more branching. The liquid cage also dissolved and encapsulated three different chlorofluorocarbons. Additionally, we also present the first hetero-cage, which we define to be a coordination cage that is charge-balanced by a second, different cage of opposite charge. A hetero-cage was synthesized by charge-balancing a liquid coordination cage with +20 charge with 5 equivalents of a solid anionic cage with -4 charge. The resulting material was characterized by NMR, which confirmed that the cages were charge-balancing each other in the absence of additional counterions. Thermal analysis of hetero-cages indicated that the material was comprised of a solid suspension of the anionic cage in the liquid cationic cage, and that the phase change behaviors of the parent cages are preserved in the hetero-cage.

description: We study the economic impact of the viral disease AVG, its stochastic transmission across abalone reefs in southern Australia, and the optimal management response as AVG approaches an uninfected reef. Using conservative estimates of the virulence and mortality rates associated with the disease, we find it optimal to maintain the pre-AVG steady-state biomass on reef j until AVG has reached reef j - 1. The size of the optimal harvest when AVG has reached reef j - 1 is significant, ranging from 85% of the pre-AVG steady-state stock plus its annual growth, to 100% when the mortality rate associated with the virus reaches 80%. Increases in the probability of transmission, P, also increase the size of the drawdown but to a lesser extent than the mortality rate. A regime shift in the intrinsic growth rate following infection also plays a central role in determining the level of pre-emptive harvesting.

description: Field effect transistors embedded into a depleted silicon bulk (DEPFETs) can be used as the first amplifying element for the detection of small signal charges deposited in the bulk by ionizing particles, X-ray photons or visible light. Very good noise performance at room temperature due to the low capacitance of the collecting electrode has been demonstrated. Regular two dimensional arrangements of DEPFETs can be read out by turning on individual rows and reading currents or voltages in the columns. Such arrangements allow the fast, low power readout of larger arrays with the possibility of random access to selected pixels. In this paper, different readout concepts are discussed as they are required for arrays with incomplete or complete clear and for readout at the source or the drain. Examples of VLSI chips for the steering of the gate and clear rows and for reading out the columns are presented.
