Scalable processing strategies for microencapsulation using cellulose nanocrystals
Creators: name: Massicotte, Marc
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Bio-based materials are promising alternatives to less sustainable materials (i.e., petroleum-based chemicals), however, very few have been commercialized in advanced material roles. In addition to formulation development, new processing methods must be established to allow bio-based materials to make the leap from lab-scale to industrial-scale processing. In this work, we investigated the use of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) in the microencapsulation of oils. First, drying techniques including freeze drying, spray freeze drying, and spray drying were compared for producing corn oil-filled powders stabilized by CNCs, methyl cellulose (MC) and tannic acid. All three techniques produced dry oil powders with high encapsulated oil content (>90%). The oil powders could be redispersed in water to reform an emulsion and could be stored dry for weeks (in the fridge) without oil leakage. The three drying techniques imparted different surface morphologies that were linked to powder redispersibility and oil release properties. Spray freeze dried powders displayed the most tunable oil release when tested on a hydrophobic substrate. It was demonstrated that spray drying could be used to encapsulate a variety of oils that have different interfacial tensions and volatilities, including jojoba, lavender, and tea tree oil. Next, a dry jet wet spinning apparatus was designed and fabricated to use the same CNC and oil encapsulation system to produce oil-filled fibres. Coaxial extrusion provided a continuous spinning process whereby an external CNC-MC “shell” and internal oil “core” led to fibres with discrete oil-filled beads measuring ca. 2 mm in width along the fibre. The spun fibres were stable under ambient conditions, relatively flexible, and exhibited interesting optical properties. The encapsulated oil could be released by shearing or by re-wetting the fibres. Both the oil-filled powders and fibres were prepared using scalable processing techniques, employed plant-based and industrially-produced “building blocks”, worked with commercially-relevant oils, and will hopefully contribute to the development of environmentally sustainable emulsions, powders, and fibres for food, cosmetic, biomedical, pharmaceutical, agricultural and construction applications.

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We prove an upper bound for the $\varepsilon$-mixing time of the symmetric exclusion process on any graph G, with any feasible number of particles. Our estimate is proportional to $\mathsf{T}_{\mathsf{RW}(G)}\ln(|V|/\varepsilon)$, where |V| is the number of vertices in G, and $\mathsf{T}_{\mathsf{RW}(G)}$ is the 1/4-mixing time of the corresponding single-particle random walk. This bound implies new results for symmetric exclusion on expanders, percolation clusters, the giant component of the Erdos-Renyi random graph and Poisson point processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Our technical tools include a variant of Morris's chameleon process.

description: Background
Peripheral nerve injury represents 2-5% of trauma cases and epidemiological data are considerably higher in cities with high rates of violence. To find a sufficient alternative to the current gold standard: nerve autotransplantation; Different cellular and tissue engineering therapies have been studied and developed. In vitro studies have suggested that using the electrospinning technique with different polymers such as poly-L-lactic acid produces aligned nanofibers and these scaffolds can function as stem cell carriers in injured nerve sites. These aligned nanofibers are known to provide guidance and can under the right conditions improve the rate of neurite outgrowth. Electrospun nanofibers according to the polymers used can perform multiple simultaneous functions due to orientation, cell adhesion, as well as the incorporation of growth factors that can be prolonged release or drugs such as antibiotics, anticoagulants, growth factors, among others. Electrospinning can be used to mimic the architecture of an acellular nerve graft, combining nanofibers of different polymers and molecules that can support axonal regeneration in vivo.

description: By using a coherent state quantization of paragrassmann variables, operators are constructed in finite Hilbert spaces. We thus obtain in a straightforward way a matrix representation of the paragrassmann algebra. This algebra of finite matrices realizes a deformed Weyl-Heisenberg algebra. The study of mean values in coherent states of some of these operators lead to interesting conclusions.

description: Representing a strongly interacting multi-particle wave function in a finite product basis leads to errors. Simple rescaling of the contact interaction can preserve the low-lying energy spectrum and long-wavelength structure of wave functions in one-dimensional systems and thus correct for the basis set truncation error. The analytic form of the rescaling is found for a two-particle system where the rescaling is exact. Detailed comparison between finite Hilbert space calculations and exact results for up to 5 particles show that rescaling can significantly improve the accuracy of numerical calculations in various external potentials. In addition to ground state energies, the low-lying excitation spectrum, density profile and correlation functions are studied. The results give a promising outlook for numerical simulations of trapped ultracold atoms.

description: While major strides have been made towards gender equality in public life, serious inequality remains in the domestic sphere, especially around parenting. The present study analyses discussions about parenting on Reddit (i.e., a content aggregation website) to explore audience effects and gender stereotypes. It suggests a novel method to study topical variation in individuals’ language when interacting with different audiences. Comments posted in 2020 were collected from three parenting subreddits (i.e., topical communities), described as being for fathers (r/Daddit), mothers (r/Mommit), and all parents (r/Parenting). Users posting on r/Parenting and r/Daddit or on r/Parenting and r/Mommit were assumed to identify as fathers or mothers, respectively, allowing gender comparison. Users’ comments on r/Parenting (to a mixed-gender audience) were compared with their comments to single-gender audiences on r/Daddit or r/Mommit using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modelling. Results show that the most discussed topic among parents is about education and family advice, a topic mainly discussed in the mixed-gender subreddit and more by fathers than mothers. The topic model also indicates that, when it comes to the basic needs of children (sleep, food, and medical care), mothers seem to be more concerned regardless of the audience. In contrast, topics such as birth and pregnancy announcements and physical appearance are more discussed by fathers in the father-centric subreddit. Overall, findings seem to show that mothers are generally more concerned about the practical sides of parenting while fathers’ expressed concerns are more contextual: with other fathers, there seems to be a desire to show their fatherhood and be recognized for it while they discuss education with mothers. These results demonstrate that concerns expressed by parents on Reddit are context-sensitive but also consistent with gender stereotypes, potentially reflecting a persistent gendered and unequal division of labour in parenting.

Lower Bounds for Quantum Oblivious Transfer

description: Oblivious transfer is a fundamental primitive in cryptography. While perfect information theoretic security is impossible, quantum oblivious transfer protocols can limit the dishonest players' cheating. Finding the optimal security parameters in such protocols is an important open question. In this paper we show that every 1-out-of-2 oblivious transfer protocol allows a dishonest party to cheat with probability bounded below by a constant strictly larger than 1/2. Alice's cheating is defined as her probability of guessing Bob's index, and Bob's cheating is defined as his probability of guessing both input bits of Alice. In our proof, we relate these cheating probabilities to the cheating probabilities of a coin flipping protocol and conclude by using Kitaev's coin flipping lower bound. Then, we present an oblivious transfer protocol with two messages and cheating probabilities at most 3/4. Last, we extend Kitaev's semidefinite programming formulation to more general primitives, where the security is against a dishonest player trying to force the outcome of the other player, and prove optimal lower and upper bounds for them.

description: In the geometric version of the Langlands correspondence, irregular singular point connections play the role of Galois representations with wild ramification. In this paper, we develop a geometric theory of fundamental strata to study irregular singular connections on the projective line. Fundamental strata were originally used to classify cuspidal representations of the general linear group over a local field. In the geometric setting, fundamental strata play the role of the leading term of a connection. We introduce the concept of a regular stratum, which allows us to generalize the condition that a connection has regular semisimple leading term to connections with non-integer slope. Finally, we construct a symplectic moduli space of meromorphic connections on the projective line that contain a regular stratum at each singular point.

description: We report on the first ground-based measurement of the relativistic beaming effect (aka Doppler boosting). We observed the beaming effect in the detached, non-interacting eclipsing double white dwarf (WD) binary NLTT 11748. Our observations were motivated by the system's high mass ratio and low luminosity ratio, leading to a large beaming-induced variability amplitude at the orbital period of 5.6 hr. We observed the system during 3 nights at the 2.0m Faulkes Telescope North with the SDSS-g' filter, and fitted the data simultaneously for the beaming, ellipsoidal and reflection effects. Our fitted relative beaming amplitude is (3.0 +/- 0.4) x 10^(-3), consistent with the expected amplitude from a blackbody spectrum given the photometric primary radial velocity amplitude and effective temperature. This result is a first step in testing the relation between the photometric beaming amplitude and the spectroscopic radial velocity amplitude in NLTT 11748 and similar systems. We did not identify any variability due to the ellipsoidal or reflection effects, consistent with their expected undetectable amplitude for this system. Low-mass, helium-core WDs are expected to reside in binary systems where in some of those systems the binary companion is a faint C/O WD and the two stars are detached and non-interacting, as in the case of NLTT 11748. The beaming effect can be used to search for the faint binary companion in those systems using wide-band photometry.

description: Research on human online activities usually assumes that total activity $T$ increases linearly with active population $P$, that is, $T\propto P^γ(γ=1)$. However, we find examples of systems where total activity grows faster than active population. Our study shows that the power law relationship $T\propto P^γ(γ>1)$ is in fact ubiquitous in online activities such as micro-blogging, news voting and photo tagging. We call the pattern "accelerating growth" and find it relates to a type of distribution that changes with system size. We show both analytically and empirically how the growth rate $γ$ associates with a scaling parameter $b$ in the size-dependent distribution. As most previous studies explain accelerating growth by power law distribution, the model of size-dependent distribution is novel and worth further exploration.

description: A classical theorem of Hurewicz characterizes spaces with the Hurewicz covering property as those having bounded continuous images in the Baire space. We give a similar characterization for spaces X which have the Hurewicz property hereditarily. We proceed to consider the class of Arhangel'skii alpha_1 spaces, for which every sheaf at a point can be amalgamated in a natural way. Let C_p(X) denote the space of continuous real-valued functions on X with the topology of pointwise convergence. Our main result is that C_p(X) is an alpha_1 space if, and only if, each Borel image of X in the Baire space is bounded. Using this characterization, we solve a variety of problems posed in the literature concerning spaces of continuous functions.

Project delivery with Indigenous communities and methods to incorporate Indigenous ways of knowing
Creators: name: Caron, Danilo
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Influential inquiries, such as the 2015 Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the 2019 National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, have emphasized the need to advance reconciliation between Canadians and Indigenous peoples. The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry is influenced by such societal goals, but there is no definitive roadmap to reconciliation. AEC projects take place on treaty or unceded Indigenous land, which contributes to the imperative of developing project delivery methods that reflect the cultures and world views of the original inhabitants of the land. The problematic acquisition of Indigenous land by settler colonial society, combined with the increased acknowledgement of Indigenous knowledges, has elevated the practice of incorporating Indigenous ways of knowing in project design and delivery. As Winona LaDuke described, ‘Indigenous knowledge is the culturally and spiritually based way in which Indigenous people relate to their ecosystem’ (2002, p. 78). The challenge is creating the conditions for project teams to collaborate and learn from Indigenous Knowledge Keepers. This thesis aims to understand the project delivery methods used by two owners to incorporate Coast Salish values and knowledge in projects and to develop a framework to assist owners in choosing project delivery methods that facilitate the incorporation of Indigenous ways of knowing. Case studies for the City of Vancouver Sea2City Design Challenge and the University of British Columbia Gateway Building were completed to better understand the strategies and methods used by the project owners to facilitate the inclusion of Coast Salish knowledge in project design. The case studies were combined with findings from a literature review to create a framework to aid owners in this process. The Framework to Incorporate Indigenous Ways of Knowing is divided into three phases and four guiding principles. The phases include pre-project preparations and actions, project delivery actions and options, and post-project actions. The phased processes and considerations are iterative as owners complete projects. The framework’s guiding principles of responsibility to relationships, flexibility, Indigenous protocols, and continual learning were shown to be essential throughout the framework phases.

description: Using primarily experimental inputs for S(B -> psi Ks), Delta M_Bs, Delta M_Bd, BR(B -> tau nu) and epsilon_K along with necessary inputs from the lattice, we find that the measured value of sin(2 beta) is smaller than expectations of the Standard Model by as much as 3.3 sigma, and also that the measured value of the BR(B -> tau nu) seems to be less than the predicted value by about 2.8 sigma. However, through a critical study we show that most likely the dominant source of these deviations is in B_d(s) mixings and in sin(2 beta) and less so in B -> tau nu, and also that the bulk of the problem persists even if input from epsilon_K is not used. The fact that kaon mixing and epsilon_K are not the dominant source of the deviation from the Standard Model has the very important consequence that model independent considerations imply that the scale of the relevant new CP-violating physics is below O(2 TeV), thus suggesting that direct signals of the new particle(s) may well be accessible in collider experiments at the LHC and perhaps even at the Tevatron.
description: 6 pages, 8 figures. Added another fit and some more discussion showing that BR(B->tau nu) comes out in good agreement with predictions of the SM if the measured value of sin2beta is not used as an input. References added

Yet in spite of 30 years of extensive research no efficient algorithm has emerged to produce an independent set with (1+c)n ln(d)/d, for any fixed c>0. In this paper we prove that the combinatorial structure of the independent set problem in random graphs undergoes a phase transition as the size k of the independent sets passes the point k nln(d)/d. Roughly speaking, we prove that independent sets of size k>(1+c)n ln(d)/d form an intricately ragged landscape, in which local search algorithms are bound to get stuck. We illustrate this phenomenon by providing an exponential lower bound for the Metropolis process, a Markov chain for sampling independents sets.

description: We investigate the problem of similarity to a self-adjoint operator for $J$-positive Sturm-Liouville operators $L=\frac{1}ω(-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+q)$ with $2π$-periodic coefficients $q$ and $ω$. It is shown that if 0 is a critical point of the operator $L$, then it is a singular critical point. This gives us a new class of $J$-positive differential operators with the singular critical point 0. Also, we extend the Beals and Parfenov regularity conditions for the critical point $\infty$ to the case of operators with periodic coefficients.

description: For a rational prime $p \geq 3$ we consider $p$-ordinary, Hilbert modular newforms $f$ of weight $k\geq 2$ with associated $p$-adic Galois representations $ρ_f$ and $\mod{p^n}$ reductions $ρ_{f,n}$. Under suitable hypotheses on the size of the image, we use deformation theory and modularity lifting to show that if the restrictions of $ρ_{f,n} $ to decomposition groups above $p$ split then $f$ has a companion form $g$ modulo $p^n$ (in the sense that $ρ_{f,n}\sim ρ_{g,n}\otimesχ^{k-1}$).

description: We investigate an efficient quantum error correction of a fully correlated noise. Suppose the noise is characterized by a quantum channel whose error operators take fully correlated forms given by $σ_x^{\otimes n}$, $σ_y^{\otimes n}$ and $σ_z^{\otimes n}$, where $n>2$ is the number of qubits encoding the codeword. It is proved that (i) $n$ qubits codeword encodes $(n-1)$ data qubits when $n$ is odd and (ii) $n$ qubits codeword implements a noiseless subsystem encoding $(n-2)$ data qubits when $n$ is even. Quantum circuits implementing these schemes are constructed.

description: Poster presented at the 11th International Workshop on Sea Ice Modelling, Assimilation, Observations, Predictions and Verification of the International Ice Charting Working Group (IICWG) at the Norwegian Meteorological Institute in Oslo, 21-23 March 2023. The effects of global climate change are amplified in the arctic, making arctic sea ice an important climate indicator. Current sea ice climate data records (CDRs), based on satellite data, are beginning in the late 1970’s. However, there are also satellite missions from the early and mid 1970s which can be used for mapping sea ice and for extending the current CDRs. One example is the data of the Electrically Scanning Microwave Radiometer (ESMR) on board the NIMBUS 5 satellite, which was operating between 1972 and 1977. As part of the ESA CCI+ sea ice project a new sea ice concentration (SIC) data set was created from the ESMR L1 data and is presented here.

Facilitators and barriers to participation of children with developmental disabilities in French immersion in Vancouver, B.C. : providers' beliefs and opinions
Creators: name: Chang, Kristina Baobao
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: French immersion (FI) is an optional dual language program in which classroom instruction is in French for a significant portion of the curriculum. During the 2018/2019 school year, almost 1 in 10 students in British Columbia, Canada, were enrolled in FI. This program is attended by children both with and without developmental disabilities (DD; such as autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome, and developmental language disorder). However, very little is known about the former group’s experiences, which raises ethical questions about opportunity and enrollment. To better understand why some children with DD may participate more or better than others, this thesis explores the factors that help and hinder their participation. Analysis of interviews with 14 education and healthcare professionals from the Vancouver region who have worked with students with DD attending or considering FI reveal many facilitators and barriers organized into the following categories: Child, Family, Provider, School, Community, System, and Combination. Notably, factors often combine to create supportive or hindering conditions. The finding that the influences on participation are multifactorial, underscores the need for providers to use a wide lens when considering and discussing with parents whether and how a child with DD will participate in FI. This study is the first to utilize qualitative data from a larger group of experienced providers to explicitly examine facilitators and barriers on this population’s participation in FI. Possibilities for future research include interviewing the students themselves or their parents, focusing on other geographical regions in Canada, as well as conducting longitudinal studies that further explore relationships between factors and participation.

description: We show that the critical charge for the Dirac excitations in gapless graphene depends on the spatial topology of the sample. In particular, for graphene cones, the effective value of the critical charge can tend towards zero for a suitable angle of the conical sample. We discuss the nature of the scattering phase shifts, quasi-bound state energies and local density of states for a gapless graphene cone and determine the dependence of these physical quantities on the sample topology.

Multispecies mammal monitoring in Cathedral Provincial Park

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Globally, protected areas face a challenge of meeting the dual mandate of protecting biodiversity while providing recreational enjoyment for humans. Balancing these mandates is confounded by limited information on species status and insufficient recreation monitoring. Effective protected area (PA) management is critical for wildlife in this time of pervasive human impact known as the Anthropocene. Where non-consumptive human recreation is considered low impact, with growth in outdoor recreation it is important to know if recreation is impacting wildlife and how. Using camera traps, I assessed the potential for recreational impacts on mammal habitat use in space and time, in Cathedral Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada. I also estimated population density for an at-risk mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus) population using two methods: spatial capture-recapture (SCR) and spatial mark-resight (SMR). I assessed recreational impacts on habitat use at the weekly scale, while also evaluating daily activity patterns for eight mammal species. I hypothesized that coexistence with recreation would require spatial and/or temporal niche segregation, with large carnivores being most sensitive and exhibiting spatial avoidance as suggested by the predator shield hypothesis. I predicted that mesocarnivores and ungulates would exploit this “shield” spatially, while exhibiting temporal avoidance of humans. I found spatial co-occurrence between ungulates and recreation, suggesting that these species may be using people as a shield from predators or for nutritional subsidies, but did not see the predicted negative relationship between predators and humans, except for coyotes (Canis latrans). Temporally, all species other than cougars (Puma concolor) had activity patterns significantly different from that of recreationists, suggesting stronger displacement in the temporal niche, while wolves (Canis lupus) and mountain goats showed significantly different use of on and off-trail habitat in time. Estimates of mountain goat density varied between methods, from a minimum 6.32 (95% CI; 2.98-13.40) to a maximum of 11.54 (6.97-19.13) goats per 100 km2. I found SMR estimates to have higher precision than SCR estimates across all three years. With this study I show that camera trap surveys can be used to assess interactions between wildlife and recreation, while also providing basis for monitoring population trends in sensitive species.
Reliability Distributions of Truncated Max-log-map (MLM) Detectors Applied to ISI Channels

description: The max-log-map (MLM) receiver is an approximated version of the well-known, Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) algorithm. The MLM algorithm is attractive due to its implementation simplicity. In practice, sliding-window implementations are preferred; these practical implementations consider truncated signaling neighborhoods around each transmission time instant. In this paper, we consider sliding-window MLM receivers, where for any integer m, the MLM detector is truncated to a length- m signaling neighborhood. For any number n of chosen times instants, we derive exact expressions for both i) the joint distribution of the MLM symbol reliabilities, and ii) the joint probability of the erroneous MLM symbol detections. We show that the obtained expressions can be efficiently evaluated using Monte-Carlo techniques. Our proposed method is efficient; the most computationally expensive operation (in each Monte-Carlo trial) is an eigenvalue decomposition of a size 2mn by 2mn matrix. Practical truncation lengths can be easily handled. Finally, our proposed method is extremely general, and various scenarios such as correlated noise distributions, modulation coding, etc. may be easily accommodated.
