Low-momentum ring diagrams of neutron matter at and near the unitary limit
We study neutron matter at and near the unitary limit using a low-momentum
ring diagram approach. By slightly tuning the meson-exchange CD-Bonn potential,
neutron-neutron potentials with various scattering lengths such as
and are constructed. Such potentials are renormalized
with rigorous procedures to give the corresponding -equivalent
low-momentum potentials , with which the low-momentum
particle-particle hole-hole ring diagrams are summed up to all orders, giving
the ground state energy of neutron matter for various scattering lengths.
At the limit of , our calculated ratio of to that of
the non-interacting case is found remarkably close to a constant of 0.44 over a
wide range of Fermi-momenta. This result reveals an universality that is well
consistent with the recent experimental and Monte-Carlo computational study on
low-density cold Fermi gas at the unitary limit. The overall behavior of this
ratio obtained with various scattering lengths is presented and discussed.
Ring-diagram results obtained with and those with -matrix
interactions are compared.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
White learning methodology: a case study of cancer-related disease factors analysis in real-time PACS environment
Bayesian network is a probabilistic model of which the prediction accuracy may not be one of the highest in the machine learning family. Deep learning (DL) on the other hand possess of higher predictive power than many other models. How reliable the result is, how it is deduced, how interpretable the prediction by DL mean to users, remain obscure. DL functions like a black box. As a result, many medical practitioners are reductant to use deep learning as the only tool for critical machine learning application, such as aiding tool for cancer diagnosis. In this paper, a framework of white learning is being proposed which takes advantages of both black box learning and white box learning. Usually, black box learning will give a high standard of accuracy and white box learning will provide an explainable direct acyclic graph. According to our design, there are 3 stages of White Learning, loosely coupled WL, semi coupled WL and tightly coupled WL based on degree of fusion of the white box learning and black box learning. In our design, a case of loosely coupled WL is tested on breast cancer dataset. This approach uses deep learning and an incremental version of Naïve Bayes network. White learning is largely defied as a systemic fusion of machine learning models which result in an explainable Bayes network which could find out the hidden relations between features and class and deep learning which would give a higher accuracy of prediction than other algorithms. We designed a series of experiments for this loosely coupled WL model. The simulation results show that using WL compared to standard black-box deep learning, the levels of accuracy and kappa statistics could be enhanced up to 50%. The performance of WL seems more stable too in extreme conditions such as noise and high dimensional data. The relations by Bayesian network of WL are more concise and stronger in affinity too. The experiments results deliver positive signals that WL is possible to output both high classification accuracy and explainable relations graph between features and class.

Local syzygies of multiplier ideals
In recent years, multiplier ideals have found many applications in local and
global algebraic geometry. Because of their importance, there has been some
interest in the question of which ideals on a smooth complex variety can be
realized as multiplier ideals. Other than integral closure no local
obstructions have been known up to now, and in dimension two it was established
by Favre-Jonsson and Lipman-Watanabe that any integrally closed ideal is
locally a multiplier ideal. We prove the somewhat unexpected result that
multiplier ideals in fact satisfy some rather strong algebraic properties
involving higher syzygies. It follows that in dimensions three and higher,
multiplier ideals are very special among all integrally closed ideals.Comment: 8 page
Section Extension from Hyperbolic Geometry of Punctured Disk and Holomorphic Family of Flat Bundles
The construction of sections of bundles with prescribed jet values plays a
fundamental role in problems of algebraic and complex geometry. When the jet
values are prescribed on a positive dimensional subvariety, it is handled by
theorems of Ohsawa-Takegoshi type which give extension of line bundle valued
square-integrable top-degree holomorphic forms from the fiber at the origin of
a family of complex manifolds over the open unit 1-disk when the curvature of
the metric of line bundle is semipositive. We prove here an extension result
when the curvature of the line bundle is only semipositive on each fiber with
negativity on the total space assumed bounded from below and the connection of
the metric locally bounded, if a square-integrable extension is known to be
possible over a double point at the origin. It is a Hensel-lemma-type result
analogous to Artin's application of the generalized implicit function theorem
to the theory of obstruction in deformation theory. The motivation is the need
in the abundance conjecture to construct pluricanonical sections from flatly
twisted pluricanonical sections. We also give here a new approach to the
original theorem of Ohsawa-Takegoshi by using the hyperbolic geometry of the
punctured open unit 1-disk to reduce the original theorem of Ohsawa-Takegoshi
to a simple application of the standard method of constructing holomorphic
functions by solving the d-bar equation with cut-off functions and additional
blowup weight functions
Interpolation in non-positively curved K\"ahler manifolds
We extend to any simply connected K\"ahler manifold with non-positive
sectional curvature some conditions for interpolation in and in
the unit disk given by Berndtsson, Ortega-Cerd\`a and Seip. The main tool is a
comparison theorem for the Hessian in K\"ahler geometry due to Greene, Wu and
Siu, Yau.Comment: 9 pages, Late
Unitarity potentials and neutron matter at the unitary limit
We study the equation of state of neutron matter using a family of unitarity
potentials all of which are constructed to have infinite scattering
lengths . For such system, a quantity of much interest is the ratio
where is the true ground-state energy of the system,
and is that for the non-interacting system. In the limit of
, often referred to as the unitary limit, this ratio is
expected to approach a universal constant, namely . In the
present work we calculate this ratio using a family of hard-core
square-well potentials whose can be exactly obtained, thus enabling us to
have many potentials of different ranges and strengths, all with infinite
. We have also calculated using a unitarity CDBonn potential
obtained by slightly scaling its meson parameters. The ratios given by
these different unitarity potentials are all close to each other and also
remarkably close to 0.44, suggesting that the above ratio is indifferent
to the details of the underlying interactions as long as they have infinite
scattering length. A sum-rule and scaling constraint for the renormalized
low-momentum interaction in neutron matter at the unitary limit is discussed.Comment: 7.5 pages, 7 figure
Mobile access to moodle activities: student usage and perceptions
Parallel Sessions 4Theme: Mobile Learning MOOCs and 21st Century-learningWith the rapidly increasing use of handheld mobile devices among staff and students in higher education, it has become more and more common for them to access teaching and learning related information and services using mobile devices (Peters, 2009). A 2011 survey on mobile services in academic libraries in Hong Kong and Singapore reveals that the possession rate of mobile devices was 93.4% among Hong Kong college students, and 61.9% of them used smartphones to access the Internet (Ang, 2012). It is not uncommon to see university students use smartphones to access learning resources on Moodle and other LMSs. However, how students use Moodle via mobile phones and what their perceptions of mobile access to Moodle have rarely been formally investigated. The current research aims at filling this gap by looking at which Moodle activities students would use mobile phones to access and exploring possible reasons behind the usage patterns.postprin
