description: Incarceration is thought to influence HIV transmission by disrupting partnerships that provide support and protect against sex risk-taking. Current correctional facility-based family-strengthening programs focus on marital partnerships, a minority of inmates’ partnerships. Research on the sex partnerships of incarcerated African-American men and the types of partnerships most likely to protect against HIV-related sex risk is limited. Improved understanding can inform expansion of correctional facility-based family-strengthening programs to a greater proportion of protective partnerships and HIV risk reduction programs to partnerships vulnerable to sex risk. Project DISRUPT is a cohort study of African-American men being released from prison in North Carolina who were in committed heterosexual partnerships at prison entry. Using baseline survey data (N = 189), we conducted latent class analysis (LCA) to identify subgroups of participants with distinct relationship profiles and measured associations between relationship characteristics and multiple partnerships of inmates and their partners in the six months before incarceration. LCA indicated a two-class solution, with relationships distinguished by satisfaction/stability (satisfied/stable class: 58.0%; dissatisfied/unstable class: 42.0%); each class had comparable relationship length and levels of marriage and cohabitation. Dissatisfied/unstable relationships were associated with multiple partnerships among participants (AOR 2.93, 95% CI 1.50, 5.72) and partners (AOR 4.95, 95% CI 1.68, 14.58). Satisfaction indicators—versus length, marriage, or cohabitation—were the strongest independent correlates of inmates’ and partners’ multiple partnerships. Pre-incarceration economic deprivation, mental disorder symptoms, substance use, and violence in relationships were associated with dissatisfaction/instability. Prison-based programs designed to maintain healthy partnerships, strengthen relationship skills, and reduce HIV risk-taking and violence in relationships are warranted and should be targeted to both marital and nonmarital partnerships. Programming also should address the poverty, mental illness, and substance use factors that threaten relationship satisfaction/stability and increase HIV risk.

description: We construct a separable Frobenius monoidal functor from $\mathcal{Z}\big(\mathsf{Vect}_H^{ω|_H}\big)$ to $\mathcal{Z}\big(\mathsf{Vect}_G^ω\big)$ for any subgroup $H$ of $G$ which preserves braiding and ribbon structure. As an application, we classify rigid Frobenius algebras in $\mathcal{Z}\big(\mathsf{Vect}_G^ω\big)$, recovering the classification of étale algebras in these categories by Davydov-Simmons [J. Algebra 471 (2017), 149-175, arXiv:1603.04650] and generalizing their classification to algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Categories of local modules over such algebras are modular tensor categories by results of Kirillov-Ostrik [Adv. Math. 171 (2002), 183-227, arXiv:math.QA/0101219] in the semisimple case and Laugwitz-Walton [Comm. Math. Phys., to appear, arXiv:2202.08644] in the general case.

description: Scalar tetraquark states are studied within the diquark-antidiquark picture in a non-relativistic approach. We consider two types of confining potentials, a quadratic and a linear one, to which we also add spin-spin, isospin-isospin, and spin-isospin interactions. We calculate the masses of the scalar diquarks and of the ground-state open and hidden charmed and bottom scalar tetraquarks. Our results indicate that the scalar resonances $D_{0}^{\ast}(2400)$ and $D_{s}(2632)$ have a sizable tetraquark amount in their wave function, while, on the other hand, it turns out that the scalar states $D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317)$ and $X(3915)$ should not be considered as being predominantly diquark-antidiquark bound states. We also investigate the masses of light scalar diquarks and tetraquarks, which are comparable to the measured masses of the light scalar mesons.

description: Lassa fever, a viral hemorrhagic disease, is
a growing threat to public health in West
Africa and beyond. While Ebola virus disease
(EVD) recently captured the attention
of the global community, Lassa fever arguably
represents an even more concerning
cause of viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF).
Unlike EVD, which causes sporadic outbreaks,
Lassa virus (LASV) is endemic in
West Africa and is responsible for an estimated
300 000 infections and >5000 deaths
annually—figures that are likely underestimates,
given the challenge of collecting
epidemiologic data due to civil conflict
and limited clinical research infrastructure
in endemic countries.

Small glitches: the role of strange nuggets?

description: Pulsar glitches, i.e. the sudden spin-ups of pulsars, have been detected for most pulsars that we known. The mechanism giving rise to this kind of phenomenon is uncertain, although a large data set has been built. In the framework of star-quake model, based on~\cite{Baym1971}, the glitch-sizes (the relative increases of spin-frequencies during glitches) $ΔΩ/Ω$ depend on the released energies during glitches, with less released energies corresponding to smaller glitch sizes. On the other hand, as one of dark matter candidates, our Galaxy might be filled with the so called strange nuggets (SNs) which are the relics from the early Universe. In this case the collisions between pulsars and SNs is inevitable, and these collisions would lead to glitches when enough elastic energy has been accumulated during the spin-down process. The SNs-triggered glitches could release less energy, because the accumulated elastic energy would be less than that in the scenario of glitches without SNs. Therefore, if a pulsar is hit frequently by SNs, it would tend to have more small size glitches, whose values of $ΔΩ/Ω$ are smaller than that in standard star-quake model (with larger amounts of released energy). Based on the assumption that in our Galaxy the distribution of SNs is similar to that of dark matter, as well as on the glitch data in ATNF Pulsar Catalogue and Jodrell Bank glitch table, we find that in our Galaxy the incidences of small size glitches exhibit tendencies consistent with the collision rates of pulsars and strange nuggets. Further test of this scenario is expected by detecting more small glitches (e.g., by the Square Kilometre Array).

description: The recent application of topological quantum chemistry to rhombohedral bismuth established the non-trivial band structure of this material. This is a 2$^{nd}$order topological insulator characterized by the presence of topology-imposed hinge-states. The spatial distribution of hinge-states and the possible presence of additional symmetry-protected surface-states is expected to depend on the crystal shape and symmetries. To explore this issue, we have grown bismuth nanocrystals in the tens of nanometers on the $(110)$ surface of InAs. By scanning tunneling spectroscopy, we mapped the local density of states on all facets and identified the presence of the hinge-states at the intersection of all facets. Our study confirm the classification of bulk bismuth as a 2$^{nd}$order topological insulator. We propose that the ubiquitous presence of the hinge-states result from their tunnel-coupling across the nanometer-sized facets.

description: Dissipation is inevitable in realistic quantum circuits. We examine the effects of dissipation on a class of monitored random circuits that exhibit a measurement-induced entanglement phase transition. This transition has previously been understood as an order-to-disorder transition of an effective classical spin model. We extend this mapping to include on-site dissipation described by the dephasing and spontaneous emission channel and study the corresponding 2D Ising model with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetry-breaking interactions. We analyze the dynamical regimes of the mutual information and find that the joint action of monitored measurements and dissipation yields short time, intermediate time and steady state behavior that can be understood in terms of crossovers between different classical domain wall configurations. The presented analysis applies to monitored open or Lindbladian quantum systems and provides a tool to understand entanglement dynamics in realistic dissipative settings and small achievable system sizes.

Exceptional solutions in two-mode quantum Rabi models

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015

description: We study two models describing the interaction of a two-level system with two quantum field modes. The first one is equivalent to a dissipative two-state system with just two boson fields in the absence of tunneling. The second describes two orthogonal fields interacting with the corresponding orthogonal dipoles of a two-level system. We show that both models present a partial two-mode $SU(2)$ symmetry and that they can be solved in the exceptional case of resonant fields. We study their ground state configurations, that is, we find the quantum precursors of the corresponding semi-classical phase transitions, as well as their whole spectra to infer their integrability. We show that the first model in the exceptional case is isomorphic with the quantum Rabi model and allows just two ground state configurations, vacuum and non-vacuum. The second model allows four ground state configurations, one vacuum, two non-vacuum single mode and one non-vacuum dual mode, and give analytic and numerical pointers that may suggest its integrability. We also show that in the single excitation subspace these models can serve as a fast $SU(2)$ beam splitter even in the ultra-strong coupling regime.

description: Purpose: This report describes initiation of apheresis capability in Liberia, Africa to support a clinical trial of convalescent plasma therapy for Ebola Virus Disease. Methods: A bloodmobile was outfitted in the United States as a four-bed apheresis unit with capabilities including pathogen reduction, electronic blood establishment computer system, designated areas for donor counseling and laboratory testing, and onboard electrical power generation. After air transport to Liberia, the bloodmobile was positioned at ELWA Hospital, Monrovia, and connected to the hospital's power grid. Liberian staff were trained to conduct donor screening, which included questionnaire and onsite blood typing and transfusion transmitted infection (TTI) testing, and plasma collection and processing. Results: The bloodmobile was operational within 3 weeks after arrival of the advance team. Of 101 donors who passed the pre-screening questionnaire, 32 were deferred. Twenty-eight of ninty-nine tested survivors were deferred for positive transfusion transmitted infection (TTI) tests; twenty-one were positive for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus. The majority of donors had type O blood; all but one were Rh positive. Forty-three survivors donated at least once; eighty-nine apheresis attempts resulted in eighty-one successful collections. Conclusions: Apheresis capability was emergently established in Liberia to support an efficacy trial of Ebola Convalescent Plasma. Extensive cooperation among multinational team members, engineers, logisticians, and blood safety technical personnel at the operational site was required to surmount challenges to execution posed by logistical factors. The high proportion of positive TTI tests supported the use of a pathogen reduction system to enhance product safety.

description: We analyze the role of impurities in the fractional quantum Hall effect using a highly controllable system of ultracold atoms. We investigate the mechanism responsible for the formation of plateaux in the resistivity/conductivity as a function of the applied magnetic field in the lowest Landau level regime. To this aim, we consider an impurity immersed in a small cloud of an ultracold quantum Bose gas subjected to an artificial magnetic field. We consider scenarios corresponding to experimentally realistic systems with gauge fields induced either by rotation or by appropriately designed laser fields. Systems of this kind are adequate to simulate quantum Hall effects in ultracold atom setups. We use exact diagonalization for few atoms and, to emulate transport equations, we analyze the time evolution of the system under a periodic perturbation. We provide a theoretical proposal to detect the up-to-now elusive presence of strongly correlated states related to fractional filling factors in the context of ultracold atoms. We analyze the conditions under which these strongly correlated states are associated with the presence of the resistivity/conductivity plateaux. Our main result is the presence of a plateau in a region, where the transfer between localized and non-localized particles takes place, as a necessary condition to maintain a constant value of the resistivity/conductivity as the magnetic field increases.

description: Background: Research on the association between antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) with comorbid mental disorders and sexually transmitted infection (STI)/HIV risk among inmates is scant despite the high prevalence of psychopathology and of STI/HIV in this population. Methods: We used baseline data from Project DISRUPT, a cohort study conducted among incarcerated African American men (n = 207), to measure associations between ASPD and STI/HIV risk. We also conducted latent class analyses (LCAs) to identify subgroups defined by ASPD with comorbid stress, depression, and borderline personality disorder symptoms and measured associations between latent class membership and STI/HIV risk. Results: Approximately 15% had ASPD and 39% reported depression. Controlling for sociodemographics, stress, and depression, ASPD was independently associated with illicit [AOR = 3.23, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.18–8.87] and injection drug use (AOR: 5.49, 95% CI: 1.23–24.42) but not with sexual risk. LCAs suggested that those at high risk of ASPD were likely to experience co-morbid mental disorders. ASPD comorbid with these disorders was linked to drug and sex risk. Conclusions: STI/HIV prevention for inmates should incorporate diagnosis and treatment of ASPD and comorbid disorders, and interventions to address ASPD-related factors (e.g., impulsivity) that drive STI/HIV risk.

description: Zipf's law of abbreviation, the tendency of more frequent words to be shorter, is one of the most solid candidates for a linguistic universal, in the sense that it has the potential for being exceptionless or with a number of exceptions that is vanishingly small compared to the number of languages on Earth. Since Zipf's pioneering research, this law has been viewed as a manifestation of a universal principle of communication, i.e. the minimization of word lengths, to reduce the effort of communication. Here we revisit the concordance of written language with the law of abbreviation. Crucially, we provide wider evidence that the law holds also in speech (when word length is measured in time), in particular in 46 languages from 14 linguistic families. Agreement with the law of abbreviation provides indirect evidence of compression of languages via the theoretical argument that the law of abbreviation is a prediction of optimal coding. Motivated by the need of direct evidence of compression, we derive a simple formula for a random baseline indicating that word lengths are systematically below chance, across linguistic families and writing systems, and independently of the unit of measurement (length in characters or duration in time). Our work paves the way to measure and compare the degree of optimality of word lengths in languages.

description: The emission spectrum has been calculated of a homogeneous pure hydrogen layer, which parameters are typical for a flare on a red dwarf. The ionization and excitation states were determined by the solution of steady-state equations taking into account the continuum and all discrete hydrogen levels. We consider the following elementary processes: electron-impact transitions, spontaneous and induced radiative transitions, and ionization by the bremsstrahlung and recombination radiation of the layer itself. The Biberman--Holstein approximation was used to calculate the scattering of line radiation. Asymptotic formulae for the escape probability are obtained for a symmetric line profile taking into account the Stark and Doppler effects. The approximation for the core of the H$-α$ line by a gaussian curve has been substantiated. The spectral intensity of the continuous spectrum, the intensity of the lines of the Balmer series and the magnitude of the Balmer jump have been calculated. The conditions have been determined for which the Balmer jump and the emission line intensities above the continuum decrease to such low values that the emission spectrum can be assumed to be continuum as well as the conditions at which the emission spectrum becomes close to the blackbody.

description: We investigate the parameter regimes favourable for the emergence of plasmons in isotropic, anisotropic, and band-mass symmetric and asymmetric Luttinger semimetals (LSMs). An LSM harbours a quadratic band-crossing point (QBCP) in its bandstructure, where the upper and lower branches of dispersion are doubly degenerate. While a nonzero temperature ($T$) can excite particle-hole pairs about the Fermi level due to thermal effects (even at zero doping), a finite doping ($μ$) sets the Fermi level away from the QBCP at any $T$, leading to a finite Fermi surface (rather than a Fermi point). Both these conditions naturally give rise to a finite density of states. A nonzero value of $T$ or $μ$ is thus a necessary condition for a plasmon to exist, as otherwise the zero density of states at the QBCP can never lead to the appearance of this collective mode. In addition to $T$ and $μ$, we consider the effects of all possible parameters like cubic anisotropy, band-mass asymmetry, and a material-dependent variable $X$ that is proportional to the mass (of the quasiparticle) and the number of fermion flavours. We implement a random-phase-approximation to compute the quasiparticle decay rate $ τ^{-1} $ (also known as the inelastic scattering rate) resulting from screened Coulomb interactions. A well-defined sharp peak in the profile of $τ^{-1}$ signals the appearance of a plasmon. From our results, we conclude that $X$ turns out to be a crucial tuning parameter, as higher values of $X$ assist in the emergence of plasmons. On the other hand, the features are broadly insensitive to cubic anisotropy and band-mass asymmetry.

description: Antiretroviral (ARV) adherence has largely been considered from the perspective of an individual's behavior with less attention given to potential structural causes for lapses in treatment, such as the cost of medications and care. HIV medication expense is typically covered by third party payers. However, private insurance premiums and deductibles may rise, or policies terminated such as with a change in employment. Likewise, a patient's eligibility for publicly funded coverage like state AIDS Drug Assistance Programs (ADAP) or Medicaid can also be lost. We conducted a one-Time survey of a sample of 300 patients receiving HIV care at a single large academic center in the south of United States to examine lapses in HIV therapy due to financial reasons. We found that during the prior year, financial issues including medication cost or coverage led to a lapse in ARVs in 10% (n = 31) of participants. However, of the 42% (n = 125) participants who had been enrolled in ADAP at any time during the prior year, 21% (n = 26) reported an ARV lapse due to problems with ADAP or medication cost. Respondents cited ADAP's required semi-Annual renewal process and other administrative issues as the cause of ARV lapses. The median duration of missed ARVs was 2 weeks (range of <1-23 weeks). Non-HIV medication and transportation to and from clinic costs were also identified as financial burdens to care by respondents. In conclusion, although conducted at a single medical center and one state, this study suggests that a significant minority of HIV-infected patients encounter financial barriers to ARV access, and this is paradoxically more common among those enrolled in the state ADAP. Streamlining, supporting, and simplifying ADAP renewal procedures will likely reduce lapses in ARV adherence and persistence.

Colonial legacies in internationalisation of higher education: racial justice and geopolitical redress in South Africa and Brazil

description: Internationalisation of higher education has mostly been theorised from a Euro-American perspective, taking less into account how legacies of colonial expansion impose unique demands on universities. This article highlights the tensions that arise when universities must respond simultaneously to transnational pressures for internationalisation and local demands for racial justice. Drawing on insights from two qualitative case studies at public universities in South Africa and Brazil, it is argued that the inbound mobility of regional students serves the instrumental purpose of holding together these conflicting imperatives at the level of the individual institution without fully accounting for international students in institutional discourses, policies and structures

description: We studied magnetic states and phase transitions in the van der Waals antiferromagnet VBr3 by specific heat and magnetization measurements of single crystals in high magnetic fields and by ab initio density functional theory calculations focused on exchange interactions. The magnetization behavior resembles Ising antiferromagnets with magnetic moments kept in the out-of-plane direction by strong uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy. The out-of-plane magnetic field induces a spin-flip metamagnetic transition, which is of first-order type at low temperatures while at higher temperatures the transition becomes continuous. The first-order and continuous transition segments in the field-temperature phase diagram meet at a tricritical point at = 12 K. The magnetization response to the in-plane field manifests a continuous spin-flop transition, which at 2 K terminates at a field mu0Hc = 27 T that can serve as an estimate of the anisotropy field in VBr3. The magnetization curves above the metamagnetic transition saturate at the same value of magnetic moment musat = 1.2 muB/f.u., which is much smaller than the spin-only (S = 1) moment of the V3+ ion. The reduced moment can be explained by the existence of a significant orbital magnetic moment antiparallel to the spin. The orbital moment is a key ingredient of a mechanism responsible for the observed large anisotropy. The exact energy evaluation of possible magnetic orders unambiguously shows that the magnetic ground state of VBr3 is the intralayer zigzag antiferromagnetic order that renders the antiferromagnetic ground state significantly more stable against the spin-flip transition than the other options. The calculations also predict that a minimal distortion of the Br ion sublattice causes a radical change of the orbital occupation in the ground state, connected with the formation of the orbital moment and the stability of magnetic order.

Spreading entanglement through pairwise exchange interactions

description: The spread of entanglement is a problem of great interest. It is particularly relevant to quantum state synthesis, where an initial direct-product state is sought to be converted into a highly entangled target state. In devices based on pairwise exchange interactions, such a process can be carried out and optimized in various ways. As a benchmark problem, we consider the task of spreading one excitation among $N$ two-level atoms or qubits. Starting from an initial state where one qubit is excited, we seek a target state where all qubits have the same excitation-amplitude -- a generalized-W state. This target is to be reached by suitably chosen pairwise exchange interactions. For example, we may have a a setup where any pair of qubits can be brought into proximity for a controllable period of time. We describe three protocols that accomplish this task, each with $N-1$ tightly-constrained steps. In the first, one atom acts as a flying qubit that sequentially interacts with all others. In the second, qubits interact pairwise in sequential order. In these two cases, the required interaction times follow a pattern with an elegant geometric interpretation. They correspond to angles within the spiral of Theodorus -- a construction known for more than two millennia. The third protocol follows a divide-and-conquer approach -- dividing equally between two qubits at each step. For large $N$, the flying-qubit protocol yields a total interaction time that scales as $\sqrt{N}$, while the sequential approach scales linearly with $ N$. For the divide-and-conquer approach, the time has a lower bound that scales as $\log N$. With any such protocol, we show that the phase differences in the final state cannot be independently controlled. For instance, a W-state (where all phases are equal) cannot be generated by pairwise exchange.
