description: We investigate the convergence of spatial discretizations for reaction-diffusion systems with mass-action law satisfying a detailed balance condition. Considering systems on the d-dimensional torus, we construct appropriate space-discrete processes and show convergence not only on the level of solutions, but also on the level of the gradient systems governing the evolutions. As an important step, we prove chain rule inequalities for the reaction-diffusion systems as well as their discretizations, featuring a non-convex dissipation functional. The convergence is then obtained with variational methods by building on the recently introduced notion of gradient systems in continuity equation format.

description: The AlGaAs material platform has been intensively used to develop nonlinear photonic devices on-a-chip, thanks to its superior nonlinear optical properties. We propose a new AlGaAs waveguide geometry, called half-core etched, which represents a compromise between two previously studied geometries, namely the nanowire and strip-loaded waveguides, combining their best qualities. We performed tunable four-wave mixing (FWM) experiments in all three of these geometries in the telecommunications C-band (wavelengths around 1550 nm), with a pulsed pump beam and a continuous-wave (CW) signal beam. The maximum FWM peak efficiencies achieved in the nanowire, strip-loaded and half-core geometries were about -5 dB, -8 dB and -9 dB, respectively. These values are among the highest reported in AlGaAs waveguides. The signal-to-idler conversion ranges were also remarkable: 161 nm for the strip-loaded and half-core waveguides and 152 nm for the nanowire. Based on our findings, we conclude that the half-core geometry is an alternative approach to the nanowire geometry, which has been earlier deemed the most efficient geometry, to perform wavelength conversion in the spectral region above the half-bandgap. Moreover, we show that the half-core geometry exhibits fewer issues associated with multiphoton absorption than the nanowire geometry.
Intrinsic neuronal determinants of neurite regrowth
Creators: name: Borisoff, Jaimie F.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Traumatic injury to the central nervous system (CNS) results in neurological deficits, in part, due to axonal regeneration failure. This is functionally exemplified in spinal cord injury by motor and sensory paralysis. Regeneration failure has been attributed to several factors, including intrinsic neuronal limitations to regeneration, as well as numerous inhibitory molecules present in the injured CNS environment. The impact of intrinsic neuronal factors is investigated here. A transition from a permissive to a restrictive repair period exists in the developing chick on approximately embryonic day (E) 13, possibly due to the formation of an extrinsic inhibitory environment preventing axonal growth, and/or an intrinsic inability of mature neurons to regenerate. By fluorescent labeling of brainstem-spinal neurons in ovo, I was able to subsequently track the capacity of specific populations of young (E8) versus mature (El 7) brainstem-spinal neurons to regrow neurites (i.e. presumptive axons) in vitro on permissive growth substrates. When cultured on E8, robust neurite growth was observed from all brainstem populations examined. In contrast, when cultured on El7, significant neurite growth was seen only from raphe-spinal neurons. Thus, brainstem-spinal neurite regrowth may dependent on both neuronal age and phenotype, suggesting that intrinsic neuronal properties may contribute to axonal regeneration failure. Because regeneration may depend on intrinsic neuronal properties, it may be beneficial to pharmacologically enhance the axonal growth capacity of neurons. Injured neurons respond characteristically (i.e. growth cone collapse or neurite retraction) to various molecules that inhibit axonal growth, including myelin proteins and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPG). Accordingly, it is possible that intracellular signaling from several inhibitory molecules converge onto a common regulatory pathway of axonal growth inhibition, i.e. the Rho-GTPase. I tested in vitro whether pharmacological inhibition of a major downstream effector of Rho, Rho-kinase (ROCK), promoted neurite outgrowth of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons grown on inhibitory substrates of aggrecan (a CSPG), myelin, and spinal cord cryosections. Indeed, ROCK inhibition promoted neurite outgrowth several-fold, as well as significantly altering the actin-based morphology of growth cones. The data support the notion that suppression of Rho-pathway activity may be a viable therapeutic avenue for enhancing axonal regeneration within the injured adult CNS.

Subjects: Agribusiness

description: Cooperative businesses have a wider range of objectives than investor-owned firms from which to legitimately choose, some of which include difficult-to-quantify member-centered goals. This paper reviews a technique adopted in the measurement of stakeholders' aspirations and perceived performance for ten agricultural cooperatives and farmer controlled businesses. Findings indicate that cooperative stakeholders embrace a range of member- and corporate-centered aspirations, although the various stakeholding groups may prioritize these alternative goals differently. Importantly, an examination of the relationship between member- and corporate-centered performance levels indicates that the achievement of one is not necessarily at the expense of the other.

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Dynamical Systems (math.DS)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: A generalization of the classical Kapitza pendulum is considered: an inverted planar mathematical pendulum with a vertically vibrating pivot point in a time-periodic horizontal force field. We study the existence of forced oscillations in the system. It is shown that there always exists a periodic solution along which the rod of the pendulum never becomes horizontal, i.e. the pendulum never falls, provided the period of vibration and the period of horizontal force are commensurable. We also present a sufficient condition for the existence of at least two different periodic solutions without falling. We show numerically that there exist stable periodic solutions without falling.

description: Use of chemical inputs such as pesticides have increased agricultural production and productivity. However, negative externalities, too, have increased. The externalities include damage to the environment, agricultural land, fisheries, fauna and flora. Another major externality has been the unintentional destruction of beneficial predators of insects which has led to a virulence of many species of agricultural pests. Mortality and morbidity among agricultural workers, especially in developing countries from exposure to pesticides, are also common. The costs from these externalities are large and affect farmers’ returns. However, despite these high costs, farmers continue to use pesticides and in increasing quantities. In this paper, we examine this paradox and show why farmers continue to use pesticides despite the increasing costs. We also emphasize ‘lock-in’ aspects of pesticide use.
Complete breakdown of the Debye model of rotational relaxation near the isotropic-nematic phase boundary: Effects of intermolecular correlations in orientational dynamics

description: The Debye-Stokes-Einstein (DSE) model of rotational diffusion predicts that the rotational correlation times $τ_{l}$ vary as $[l(l+1)]^{-1}$, where $l$ is the rank of the orientational correlation function (given in terms of the Legendre polynomial of rank $l$). One often finds significant deviation from this prediction, in either direction. In supercooled molecular liquids where the ratio $τ_{1}/τ_{2}$ falls considerably below three (the Debye limit), one usually invokes a jump diffusion model to explain the approach of the ratio $τ_{1}/τ_{2}$ to unity. Here we show in a computer simulation study of a standard model system for thermotropic liquid crystals that this ratio becomes much less than unity as the isotropic-nematic phase boundary is approached from the isotropic side. Simultaneously, the ratio $τ_2/η$ (where $η$ is the shear viscosity of the liquid) becomes {\it much larger} than hydrodynamic value near the I-N transition. We have also analyzed the break down of the Debye model of rotational diffusion in ratios of higher order rotational correlation times. We show that the break down of the DSE model is due to the growth of orientational pair correlation and provide a mode coupling theory analysis to explain the results.

On the characteristic exponents of Floquet solutions to the Mathieu equation

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

subject: 33E10; 40A25

description: We study the Floquet solutions of the Mathieu equation. In order to find an explicit relation between the characteristic exponents and their corresponding eigenvalues of the Mathieu operator, we consider the Whittaker-Hill formula. This gives an explicit relation between the eigenvalue and its characteristic exponent. The equation is explicit up to a determinant of an infinite dimensional matrix. We find a third-order linear recursion for which this determinant is exactly the limit. An explicit solution for third-order linear recursions is obtained which enables us to write the determinant explicitly.

description: Double-quantum two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy (MDCS) is a powerful optical method that is used to study optical properties of atomic and complex molecular systems and semiconductor materials. Double-quantum 2D spectra and particularly the peak lineshapes on the spectra can also provide information about many-body interactions. We model 2D spectra by solving the optical Bloch equations and show the effects of correlation between coupled resonances, which also explains the discrepancies between the experimental results reported by multiple groups.

description: We present far-ultraviolet spectra of the classical T Tauri star RU Lupi covering the 912-1710 A spectral range, as observed by the HST/STIS and FUSE satellites. We use these spectra, which are rich in emission and absorption lines, to probe both the accreting and outflowing gas. Absorption in the Ly-alpha profile constrains the extinction to A_V=0.07 mag, which we confirm with other diagnostics. We estimate a mass accretion rate of (5\pm2)\times10^{-8}$ M_\odot/yr using the optical-NUV accretion continuum. The accreting gas is also detected in bright, broad lines of C IV, Si IV, and N V, which all show complex structures across the line profile. Many other emission lines, including those of H_2 and Fe II, are pumped by Ly-alpha. RU Lupi's spectrum varies significantly in the FUV; our STIS observations occurred when RU Lupi was brighter than several other observations in the FUV, possibly due to a high mass accretion rate.

description: We construct cosmic microwave background lensing mass maps using data from the 2014 and 2015 seasons of observations with the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). These maps cover 2100 square degrees of sky and overlap with a wide variety of optical surveys. The maps are signal dominated on large scales and have fidelity such that their correlation with the cosmic infrared background is clearly visible by eye. We also create lensing maps with thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich contamination removed using a novel cleaning procedure that only slightly degrades the lensing signal-to-noise ratio. The cross-spectrum between the cleaned lensing map and the BOSS CMASS galaxy sample is detected at $10$-$σ$ significance, with an amplitude of $A=1.02 \pm 0.10$ relative to the Planck best-fit LCDM cosmological model with fiducial linear galaxy bias. Our measurement lays the foundation for lensing cross-correlation science with current ACT data and beyond.

description: The study of the sacred traditions of the Ob Ugrians includes ideas about the soul and its reincarnation, as well as the views associated with them on the meaning of human life, is inextricably linked with the theme of the genus. An analysis of the folklore and ethnographic materials of the Khanty and Mansi shows that the entire system of spiritual values was historically formed and passed on to their relatives. The ancestral legends contain an explanation of the deep meaning of the shrines protected by the people. The purpose of the work is to reveal the meaning of the clan in the cultures of the Khanty and Mansi, as a structure that carries meanings. The author pays attention to the etymology of the concept of "person", the definition of gender roles in the preservation of clan continuity, the reincarnation of souls in the clan, the veneration of patron spirits as an integral part of the ancestor cult. Based on previous research, the article broadcasts the "internal" perspective of the problems under consideration, from the representatives of the people themselves. This approach allows us to work out many poorly studied topics that underlie folk traditions and often remain outside the field of sight of outside observers.

Lipid and morphologic abnormalities associated with antiretroviral therapy for human immunodeficiency virus infection : prevalence, incidence, aetiology and impact on treatment patterns
Creators: name: Heath, Katherine Valerie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Objectives: The primary objectives of this study are to determine the prevalence and incidence of the emerging lipid and morphologic abnormalities commonly referred to as human immunodeficiency virus (HlV)-associated lipodystrophy syndrome and to identify possible determinates of prevalent and accrued symptoms among persons receiving treatment for HIV infection in British Columbia. We also aim to describe both physician and patient responses to the occurrence of these and other adverse drug effects particularly in relation to pro-active antiretroviral regimen non-adherence among patients. Methods: British Columbia's provincial HIV/AIDS Drug Treatment Program provides antiretroviral therapy to all eligible HIV positive persons in British Columbia free of charge. Persons prescribed antiretroviral agents are automatically entered into the drug treatment program database and information regarding prescribed therapies, age, gender, AIDS status and laboratory parameters is maintained for all participants while they remain on therapy. In addition, subjects complete voluntary surveys each year on the occasion of their anniversary of treatment program entry. This captures detailed information regarding socio-demographic characteristics, the occurrence of adverse drug effects, and other parameters. Additional questions regarding medically unsanctioned antiretroviral therapy adjustment and other responses to the occurrence of sub-types of adverse drug effects were incorporated for one year of the survey. Results: The prevalence of probable HIV-associated lipodystrophy syndrome in British Columbia among antiretroviral recipients is approximately 50% by self-report. Incidence rates of symptoms are also high among both those with an extensive history of therapy and those initiating first antiretroviral therapy. Study findings indicate a primary role of protease inhibitors in the aetiology of symptoms including lipoatrophy, lipohypertrophy and dyslipidemia. Other factors including patient gender and stavudine use may be related to morphologic abnormalities. Proactive self medication in direct response to adverse drug effects occurs at an annual rate of approximately 11%. This activity is associated with the severity, number and type of symptoms experienced. Conclusion: Lipodystrophy-associated symptoms are likely a consequence of antiretroviral therapy although their aetiology is complex and multifactorial. Symptoms associated with lipodystrophy and other adverse drug effects are likely to prompt intentional regimen adjustment and require consideration beyond their direct impact on clinical outcomes.

description: In the article, the author discusses the essence and functions of the punctuation system in modern English. The article shows that the development of many punctuation marks in English is characterized by peculiarities. The development of punctuation in English is freer and more liberal than in Azerbaijani. Punctuation plays an important role in sentence organization in English texts. The article notes that the development of punctuation in English at many points is of a formal nature, based on traditional rules. The research shows that the main principle in the use of punctuation in English is intonation. At the same time, syntactic principles have a leading position in determining the criteria for the development of punctuation in English. The article analyzes the works of various linguists on the punctuation system of the English language, and expresses a subjective attitude to their opinions. The author draws a typological comparison of punctuation in English and Azerbaijani and concludes that the punctuation system in both languages is both analogous and different. These differences are due to both intralinguistic and extra-linguistic, is extra linguistic factors.

description: The use of artificial defects is known to enhance the superconducting critical parameters of thin films. In the case of conventional superconductors, regular arrays of submicron holes (antidots) substantially increase the critical temperature Tc(H) and critical current Ic(H) for all fields. Using electrical transport measurements, we study the effect of placing an additional small antidot in the unit cell of the array. This composite antidot lattice consists of two interpenetrating antidot square arrays with a different antidot size and the same lattice period. The smaller antidots are located exactly at the centers of the cells of the array of large antidots. We show that the composite antidot lattice can trap a higher number of flux quanta per unit cell inside the antidots, compared to a reference antidot film without the additional small antidots in the center of the cells. As a consequence, the field range in which an enhanced critical current is observed is considerably expanded. Finally, the possible stable vortex lattice patterns at several matching fields are determined by molecular dynamics simulations.

description: A simulation model containing both economic (monetary) and socio-environmental (value index) components is developed in a case study of predator control alternatives. Particular emphasis is given to the description and justification of the socio-economic model. The economic model is estimated in terms of producers' and consumers' surpluses. The empirical tradeoff function developed suggests that alternatives to recent predator control programs exist that could be "better" for both general public and producer interests. The general approach can serve as a prototype for policy evaluations involving multiple objectives.
On the Origin of the Bimodal Rotational Velocity Distribution in Stellar Clusters: Rotation on the Pre-Main Sequence

description: We address the origin of the observed bimodal rotational distribution of stars in massive young and intermediate age stellar clusters. This bimodality is seen as split main sequences at young ages and also has been recently directly observed in the $Vsini$ distribution of stars within massive young and intermediate age clusters. Previous models have invoked binary interactions as the origin of this bimodality, although these models are unable to reproduce all of the observational constraints on the problem. Here we suggest that such a bimodal rotational distribution is set up early within a cluster's life, i.e., within the first few Myr. Observations show that the period distribution of low-mass ($\la 2 M_\odot$) pre-main sequence (PMS) stars is bimodal in many young open clusters and we present a series of models to show that if such a bimodality exists for stars on the PMS that it is expected to manifest as a bimodal rotational velocity (at fixed mass/luminosity) on the main sequence for stars with masses in excess of $\sim1.5$~\msun. Such a bimodal period distribution of PMS stars may be caused by whether stars have lost (rapid rotators) or been able to retain (slow rotators) their circumstellar discs throughout their PMS lifetimes. We conclude with a series of predictions for observables based on our model.

description: Contributions from the reaction e+e- --> pi+pi- e+e- to the pion form factor measurement via radiative return method are discussed basing on the results of a Monte Carlo generator (EKHARA). The generator contains contributions from the initial and final state emission of a e+e- pair from e+e- --> pi+pi- production diagrams and the pi+pi- pair production from space-like and time-like Bhabha diagrams. A detailed study is performed for the Phi- factory energy. Tests of the generation procedure are also presented.

description: Previously published empirical models of U.S. farmland prices are reviewed and reestimated including recent data. It is apparent that structural changes have occurred. A simple single equation econometric model with less economic structure appears to forecast better than a simultaneous equation model. Finally, Box-Jenkins forecasts are roughly as good as those based upon a simultaneous equation econometric model, but somewhat inferior to the single equation model. The results suggest that further research may be needed to explain recent movements of farmland prices.
A coupled two-species model for the pair contact process with diffusion

description: The contact process with diffusion (PCPD) defined by the binary reactions 2 B -> 3 B, 2 B -> 0 and diffusive particle spreading exhibits an unusual active to absorbing phase transition whose universality class has long been disputed. Multiple studies have indicated that an explicit account of particle pair degrees of freedom may be required to properly capture this system's effective long-time, large-scale behavior. We introduce a two-species representation in which single particles B and pairs A are coupled according to the stochastic reactions B + B -> A, A -> A + B, A -> 0, and A -> B + B. Mean-field analysis reveals that the phase transition is driven by competition and balance between both species. We employ Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate that this model captures the pertinent PCPD features. In the inactive phase, A particles rapidly go extinct, leaving the B species to undergo pure pair annihilation kinetics. At criticality, both A and B densities decay with the same exponents as the PCPD order parameters, and display mean-field scaling above the critical dimension 2. In one dimension, the critical exponents for the B species obtained from seed simulations agree well with previously reported exponent values. We demonstrate that the scaling properties of consecutive particle pairs in the PCPD are identical with that of the A species in the coupled model. This two-species picture resolves the conceptual difficulty for seed simulations in the original PCPD and naturally introduces multiple length and time scales, which cause strong corrections to scaling. The extracted moment ratios from our simulations indicate that our model displays the same temporal crossover behavior as the PCPD, which further corroborates its full dynamical equivalence with our coupled model.

Nuclear multifragmentation within the framework of different statistical ensembles

description: The sensitivity of the Statistical Multifragmentation Model to the underlying statistical assumptions is investigated. We concentrate on its micro-canonical, canonical, and isobaric formulations. As far as average values are concerned, our results reveal that all the ensembles make very similar predictions, as long as the relevant macroscopic variables (such as temperature, excitation energy and breakup volume) are the same in all statistical ensembles. It also turns out that the multiplicity dependence of the breakup volume in the micro-canonical version of the model mimics a system at (approximately) constant pressure, at least in the plateau region of the caloric curve. However, in contrast to average values, our results suggest that the distributions of physical observables are quite sensitive to the statistical assumptions. This finding may help deciding which hypothesis corresponds to the best picture for the freeze-out stage

Year: 1979
Subjects: Crop Production/Industries

description: An economic model of the demand for fertilizer is specified and equations for nitrogen, phosphorous and potash are estimated for individual states in the western United States. The results are acceptable from both an economic and statistical viewpoint. The estimated price elasticity of demand demonstrates considerable variation between states and nutrients. The quantity of each nutrient sold per acre has increased with expected crop price increases and land price increases. In general, the sales response to shifts in the crop production function has been very elastic. Future shifts in fertilizer demand will be heavily dependent on changes in agricultural productivity.
