    Intermediate deviation regime for the full eigenvalue statistics in the complex Ginibre ensemble

    Full text link
    We study the Ginibre ensemble of N×NN \times N complex random matrices and compute exactly, for any finite NN, the full distribution as well as all the cumulants of the number NrN_r of eigenvalues within a disk of radius rr centered at the origin. In the limit of large NN, when the average density of eigenvalues becomes uniform over the unit disk, we show that for 0<r<10<r<1 the fluctuations of NrN_r around its mean value ⟹Nr⟩≈Nr2\langle N_r \rangle \approx N r^2 display three different regimes: (i) a typical Gaussian regime where the fluctuations are of order O(N1/4){\cal O}(N^{1/4}), (ii) an intermediate regime where Nr−⟹Nr⟩=O(N)N_r - \langle N_r \rangle = {\cal O}(\sqrt{N}), and (iii) a large deviation regime where Nr−⟹Nr⟩=O(N)N_r - \langle N_r \rangle = {\cal O}({N}). This intermediate behaviour (ii) had been overlooked in previous studies and we show here that it ensures a smooth matching between the typical and the large deviation regimes. In addition, we demonstrate that this intermediate regime controls all the (centred) cumulants of NrN_r, which are all of order O(N){\cal O}(\sqrt{N}), and we compute them explicitly. Our analytical results are corroborated by precise "importance sampling" Monte Carlo simulations.Comment: 10 pages, 3 Figure

    HIGHLAND AVIAN SURVEYS IN CERRO HOYA NATIONAL PARK (AZUERO, PANAMÁ) REVEAL NEW RANGE EXTENSIONS, INCLUDING A RARE HUMMINGBIRD (SELASPHORUS SP.)

    Abstract ∙ Cerro Hoya National Park in Panama (CHNP) is one of the least explored protected areas in southern Mesoamerica. It houses the greatest ecosystem diversity in the degraded Azuero Peninsula, but its inaccessibility hinders expeditions and scientific research. Avian richness in CHNP was previously estimated by combining data from five ornithological expeditions at ca. 225 species. However, the highest altitude areas remained relatively unexplored and some historical records were not verified. We intensively surveyed highlands and foothills of CHNP and identified five new range extensions. One of these included a Selasphorus sp., of which we collected three male (two adults, one immature) and one female specimens. We compared morphology and plumage color patterns of these with closely related species in detail and confirm their likely classification with the endangered Glow-throated Hummingbird (Selasphorus ardens). This species is rare, with few documented sightings, confirmed specimens, and no unambiguous female museum specimen until now. We also confirmed historical records and provide 26 unlisted species (one by an external source) to CHNP. Our results confirm that Cerro Hoya is a highly biodiverse skyisland of Mesoamerica. We urge improved enforcement of its protection in combination with further studies of the ecology and evolutionary processes in this unique region. Resumen · Censos ornitolĂłgicos en ambientes de altura en el Parque Nacional Cerro Hoya (Azuero, PanamĂĄ) revelan nuevas extensiones de distribuciĂłn, incluyendo un inusual colibrĂ­ (Selasphorus sp.) El Parque Nacional Cerro Hoya (PNCH) es una de las ĂĄreas protegidas menos exploradas de PanamĂĄ y el sur de MesoamĂ©rica. Este alberga la mayor diversidad de ecosistemas en la degradada penĂ­nsula de Azuero, pero su inaccesibilidad dificulta la investigaciĂłn cientĂ­fica. Combinando datos de cinco expediciones ornitolĂłgicas, se estimĂł una riqueza aviar de alrededor de 225 especies. No obstante, las ĂĄreas de mayor altitud permanecieron relativamente inexploradas y algunos registros histĂłricos no fueron verificados. Exploramos intensivamente las tierras altas y estribaciones del PNCH e identificamos cinco nuevas extensiones de distribuciĂłn. Uno de estos incluye Selasphorus sp., del cual colectamos tres especĂ­menes machos (dos adultos, un juvenil) y una hembra. Comparamos detalladamente la morfologĂ­a y los patrones de coloraciĂłn del plumaje con especĂ­menes de especies relacionadas estrechamente. Confirmamos que estos individuos podrĂ­an pertenecer al amenazado ColibrĂ­ Ardiente (Selasphorus ardens). Esta especie es rara, con pocos avistamientos y especĂ­menes de museo con informaciĂłn inconsistente, principalmente en hembras. TambiĂ©n confirmamos los registros histĂłricos y agregamos 26 especies no listadas para el PNCH (una obtenida por fuente externa). Nuestros resultados confirman que Cerro Hoya es una isla-cielo de gran biodiversidad en MesoamĂ©rica. Es urgente mejorar la aplicaciĂłn de su protecciĂłn, asĂ­ como estudiar la ecologĂ­a y los procesos evolutivos en esta regiĂłn Ășnica

    El objetivo del presente proyecto fue analizar los factores motivacionales dentro de la organizaciĂłn, que inciden en el desarrollo de procesos administrativos en los empleados de la empresa sector tecnolĂłgico, con el propĂłsito de caracterizar dichos factores y su posible afectaciĂłn en el desempeño laboral de sus empleados. La motivaciĂłn laboral emerge como tema de interĂ©s en este trabajo, por la exposiciĂłn de los indicadores de la encuesta de bienestar (Empresa del sector tecnolĂłgico, 2017) y desde el anĂĄlisis del plan estratĂ©gico, ya que se determinĂł que los cargos administrativos corresponden a cargos crĂ­ticos debido a la importancia de las funciones que desempeñan en la organizaciĂłn, donde pese a los incentivos promovidos por la empresa a travĂ©s del programa de bienestar se evidenciĂł a travĂ©s de la encuesta de bienestar (Empresa del sector tecnolĂłgico, 2017), que los empleados perciben que no son suficientes para fortalecer el compromiso y contrarrestar la carga laboral, que se ha aumentado en los Ășltimos años con el incremento de los empleados en las tiendas. Es asĂ­, como se comienza a estudiar las teorĂ­as mĂĄs representativas de la motivaciĂłn laboral, iniciando con teorĂ­as conductistas como la de Hull y Tolman, tambiĂ©n humanistas como la de Maslow y McClelland y otras sistĂ©micas como Herzberg y Toro. La metodologĂ­a de investigaciĂłn implementada es de origen mixto, incluye investigaciĂłn documental y de campo en tres fases (Zorrilla, 1993), la revisiĂłn documental, la aplicaciĂłn del Cuestionario de MotivaciĂłn en el Trabajo segunda ediciĂłn (Toro, 1992) y un grupo focal basado en una entrevista semiestructurada validada por tres expertos. Los datos interpretados permitieron definir los indicadores motivacionales y diseñar una propuesta de mejoramiento enfocada en los objetivos estratĂ©gicos y los intereses de los empleados administrativos para ser incluida en el plan de bienestar del 2019.The objective of this project was to analyze the motivational factors within the organization, which affect the development of administrative processes in the employees technology sector company, in order to characterize these factors and their possible impact on the performance of their employees. Work motivation emerges as a topic of interest in this work, due to the exposure of the indicators of the welfare survey (Empresa del sector tecnolĂłgico, 2017) and from the analysis of the strategic plan, since it was determined that the administrative charges correspond to critical positions due to the importance of the functions they perform in the organization, where despite the incentives promoted by the company through the wellness program was evidenced through the welfare survey (Empresa del sector tecnolĂłgico, 2017), which employees perceive is not enough to Strengthen the commitment and counteract the workload, which has increased in recent years with the increase of employees in stores. This is how the most representative theories of work motivation begin to be studied, beginning with behavioral theories such as Hull and Tolman, as well as humanists such as Maslow and McClelland and other systems such as Herzberg and Toro. The research methodology implemented is of mixed origin, includes documentary and field research in three phases (Zorrilla, 1993), the documentary review, the application of the Motivation in Work Questionnaire, second edition (Toro, 1992) and a focus group based on in a semi-structured interview validated by three experts. The interpreted data allowed defining the motivational indicators and designing an improvement proposal focused on the strategic objectives and the interests of the administrative employees to be included in the 2019 welfare plan

    To evaluate the relationship between Self-Rated Health (SRH) and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in a sample of children and adolescents enrolled in official schools in BogotĂĄ, Colombia. A cross-sectional study was performed with 7402 children and adolescents between 9 and 17 years of age. Participants were asked to rate their health based on eight validated questions, addressing the participants propensity for headache, stomach-ache, backache, feeling-low, irritability/bad mood, nervousness, sleeping-difficulties, and dizziness. The choices were “rarely or never”, “almost every month”, “almost every week”, and “more than once a week/about every day”. Participants performed the international course-navette shuttle run test to estimate CRF, and cut-off points for age and gender were used to categorize the healthy/unhealthy fitness zone according to the FITNESSGRAMÂź criteria. Overall, 16.4% of those surveyed reported a perception of irritability/bad mood “more than once a week/about every day”, followed by feeling-low and nervousness (both with 9.9%). Dizziness had the lowest prevalence with a percentage of 6.9%. Unhealthy CRF in boys increased the likelihood of headaches by 1.20 times, stomach aches by 1.31 times, feeling-low by 1.29 times, nervousness by 1.24 times, and dizziness by 1.29 times. In girls, unhealthy CRF increased the likelihood of headaches by 1.19 times, backache by 1.26 times, feeling-low by 1.28 times, irritability/bad mood by 1.17 times, sleeping-difficulties by 1.20 times, and dizziness by 1.27 times. SRH was associated with CRF in both genders. Early identification of children and adolescents with low CRF levels will permit interventions to promote healthy behaviors and prevent future diseases during adulthood.The FUPRECOL Study was possible due to the financial support provided by the Instituto Colombiano para el Desarrollo de la Ciencia y la TecnologĂ­a “Francisco JosĂ© de Caldas” COLCIENCIAS (Contract No. 671-2014 Code 122265743978)

    The Potential Economic Value of a Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas Disease) Vaccine in Latin America

    Get PDF
    The substantial burden of Chagas disease, especially in Latin America, and the limitations of currently available treatment and control strategies have motivated the development of a Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) vaccine. Evaluating a vaccine's potential economic value early in its development can answer important questions while the vaccine's key characteristics (e.g., vaccine efficacy targets, price points, and target population) can still be altered. This can assist vaccine scientists, manufacturers, policy makers, and other decision makers in the development and implementation of the vaccine. We developed a computational economic model to determine the cost-effectiveness of introducing a T. cruzi vaccine in Latin America. Our results showed vaccination to be very cost-effective, in many cases providing both cost savings and health benefits, even at low infection risk and vaccine efficacy. Moreover, our study suggests that a vaccine may actually “pay for itself”, as even a relatively higher priced vaccine will generate net cost savings for a purchaser (e.g., a country's ministry of health). These findings support continued investments in and efforts toward the development of a human T. cruzi vaccine

    Search for new phenomena in final states with an energetic jet and large missing transverse momentum in pp collisions at √ s = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

    Results of a search for new phenomena in final states with an energetic jet and large missing transverse momentum are reported. The search uses 20.3 fb−1 of √ s = 8 TeV data collected in 2012 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events are required to have at least one jet with pT > 120 GeV and no leptons. Nine signal regions are considered with increasing missing transverse momentum requirements between Emiss T > 150 GeV and Emiss T > 700 GeV. Good agreement is observed between the number of events in data and Standard Model expectations. The results are translated into exclusion limits on models with either large extra spatial dimensions, pair production of weakly interacting dark matter candidates, or production of very light gravitinos in a gauge-mediated supersymmetric model. In addition, limits on the production of an invisibly decaying Higgs-like boson leading to similar topologies in the final state are presente

    Birth weight and blood lipid levels in Spanish adolescents: Influence of selected APOE, APOC3 and PPARgamma2 gene polymorphisms. The AVENA Study

    Get PDF
    Background There is increasing evidence indicating that genes involved in certain metabolic processes of cardiovascular diseases may be of particular influence in people with low body weight at birth. We examined whether the apolipoprotein (APO) E, APOC3 and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-Îł-2 (PPARÎł2) polymorphisms influence the association between low birth weight and blood lipid levels in healthy adolescents aged 13–18.5 years. Methods A cross-sectional study of 502 Spanish adolescents born at term was conducted. Total (TC) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), triglycerides (TG), apolipoprotein (apo) A and B, and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] were measured. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc), TC-HDLc, TC/HDLc and apoB/apoA were calculated. Results Low birth weight was associated with higher levels of TC, LDLc, apoB, Lp(a), TC-HDLc, TC/HDLc and apoB/apoA in males with the APOE Δ3Δ4 genotype, whereas in females, it was associated with lower HDLc and higher TG levels. In males with the APOC3 S1/S2 genotype, low birth weight was associated with lower apoA and higher Lp(a), yet this association was not observed in females. There were no associations between low birth weight and blood lipids in any of the PPARÎł2 genotypes. Conclusion The results indicate that low birth weight has a deleterious influence on lipid profile particularly in adolescents with the APOE Δ3/Δ4 genotype. These findings suggest that intrauterine environment interact with the genetic background affecting the lipid profile in later life.The AVENA study was supported by the Spanish Ministry of Health Instituto de Salud Carlos III (FIS PI021830), the Spanish Ministry of Health, FEDER-FSE funds FIS n° 00/0015, CSD grants 05/UPB32/0, 109/UPB31/03 and 13/UPB20/04, the Spanish Ministry of Education (AP-2004-2745; EX-2007-1124), scholarships from Panrico S.A., Madaus S.A. and Procter and Gamble S.A
