In the elementary quantum mechanics (QM) of a single particle responding to a given environment, the state of the particle can be specified by specifying a set of commuting (i.e., simultaneously knowable) observables. Examples of observables include energy and angular momentum. Although not simultaneously knowable, other examples include the three rectangular spatial coordinates and the three components of linear momentum. Each observable in QM is a real number and is an eigenvalue of some Hermitian operator. Now consider quantum field theory (QFT) which considers a field instead of a particle. First consider the classical (before introducing QFT operators) description of the state of the field at a selected point in time. This is the field amplitude at every spatial location at the selected time point. For at least some kinds of fields, the field amplitude at a given space-time point is a complex number. Now consider the QFT corresponding to the selected classical example of a field. Is the field amplitude an observable even when it is not a real number? It is not an eigenvalue of any Hermitian operator when not real. So if the field amplitude is an observable, there is no Hermitian operator associated with this observable. My guess (and my question is whether this guess is correct) is that the real and imaginary parts of the field amplitude are simultaneously knowable observables, with a Hermitian operator (assigned to each space-time point) for each. This would at least explain how the field amplitude can be an observable but not real and not have any associated Hermitian operator. Is my guess correct?
Relevant answer
Answer
The same as in quantum mechanics, only now they're probabilities per unit time and unit volume.
The field amplitude isn't observable, any more than the wavefunction is; it's the modulus squared of the field amplitude that describes the probability density at each point in space and time.

Hello, I am having a hard time creating SOP and what Variables to consider in my study. Can you help me with what should I only consider for my SOP so that I can fully implement descriptive statistics? And can you suggest what descriptive statistic model/method to analyze the data that I will collect form the surveys (My research is about finding the influence of the COVID-19 Pandemic in a rail transit line and its commuters/passengers of urban transit(from my country, the Philippines)
This is what I came up with as of now:
The study was conducted and seek to answer the following questions:
1. What is the demographic profile of the respondents in terms of:
1.1. Age
1.2. Status (Student/Worker/Non-worker)
2. Impacts of Covid19-Pandemic to the Metro rail transit transportation system in terms of :
2.1 Safety
2.2 Travel-Time
2.3 Service
2.4 Economy
3. How do the public commuters adapt to the contemporary situation of railway transportation in terms of :
3.1 Convenience
3.2 Accessibility
3.3 New Guidelines
3.4 Limited Capacity
Relevant answer
Answer
The descriptive statistics will describe your sample; then it will be followed by the necessary steps for inferential statistics, in order to infer the results to the population.
The analysis approach will be focused on analyzing each variable or question in the questionnaire and also on testing the relationship between any different variables.
Each variable can be numerical scale, categorical binary, categorical nominal, or categorical ordinal. The descriptive statistic of the sample for each numerical scale variable will be based on computing: Central Tendency “Mean - Median - Mode”, Dispersion “standard deviation – range – maximum – minimum”, Position “quartile and percentile”, Skewness & Kurtosis, and drawing the histogram. The descriptive statistic of the sample for each categorical variable (binary, nominal, or ordinal) will be based on computing: frequency distribution table “FDT”, and drawing the equivalent bar chart or pie chart.
Each two variables relationship can be a combination of each of the four different variables “numerical scale or categorical binary, categorical nominal, or categorical ordinal”. The descriptive statistics of two numerical variables relationship will be based on computing the correlation between them and drawing the split histogram. While the descriptive statistics for two categorical variables (binary, nominal, or ordinal) will be based on the contingency table and the relative chart. Lastly, the descriptive statistics for one categorical variable & one numerical variable will be based on computing the numerical descriptive statistics for each option in the categorical variable.
If you need to infer your results to the population, then a null hypothesis (Ho) can be assumed. If Ho is rejected, then the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is adopted.

It is well known that the origin of the Covid-19 epidemy did start in China at the end of 2019 and that by March 11th, the WHO declared the Pandemics. During the last few months, we have seen the best and the worst of our societies. We have seen politicians taking the most ridiculous paths denying the danger of the virus, to later on said that they knew what to do and that they were ready to act and protect the society. On the other hand, we have seen a few countries taking hard decisions to close down activities with the high risk of inducing financial crisis, but putting upfront the health of their people.
One thing that has been highlighted since an early stage of the lockdown was the decrease on the levels of air pollutants, later on with the reports of wildlife getting over places where they have not been seen in a very long while, and finally with the latest reports regarding the “ozone-hole” that has been recently reported. This is a critical moment for all of us to pay attention to what is happening, and how the large disruptions in our regular lives by the Sars-Cov-2 virus have had a positive impact on the environment. Among the lessons is the fact that many things that we do commuting, generating a large amount of pollutants, may be significantly reduced. How much of our compulsive use of resources can be reduced and avoided, having a positive impact both in our health and our environment? Certainly, this is not good news for everybody, especially those getting the financial benefit of our behavior. But as a society, we have a fantastic opportunity and I really hope to see specialists in all the fronts analyzing the positive impact of the changes during these months, and how we could adapt some of these changes to have a more sustainable world.

4. Habituated to take regula physical exercises.

My lab uses the Plexon optogenetic system, but we had an issue during our first experiment with the patch cable twisting, then breaking, resulting in a huge loss of light output. In addition, our mice do not seem to generate enough force to rotate the mounted commutator. Has anyone else had this issue/does anyone have a picture of their setup? Any help is appreciated.
Relevant answer
Answer
I hope I'm not too late to help you with your issue. We also use the Plexon optogenetic system, and have encountered the same issues as you. The good thing about the Plexon system is the fewer optic connections which results in less light loss and a strong light power out the end of the cable. As you say, the commutators are problematic and their optic cables are very fragile, though overall we've found it to be ok. Here are some things we do:
  • Bilateral optic fibre connections are better than unilateral, as the torque on the commutator can cause the single fibres to twist and shear.
  • We use 0.5m cables, with the height of the mouse cages adjusted to provide only a small slack. This prevents the cables from over-twisting, and encourages the commutators to spin when the mice turn. It is still worthwhile having someone present to spin the commutators if needed to relieve torque, although we find this is rarely needed.
  • Plexon have recognised the problem with the heavy commutators and are now selling more durable versions of the optic cables (we have yet to get any, but they are on our buy list).
Unfortunately, there are limited options for in vivo optogenetics without the use of lasers (which we wanted to avoid for safety reasons). Out of the LED systems, I think Plexon does make a decent compromise between usability and light power outout, whereas I'm not sure what the actual light output of the other LED systems are, as the manufacturors are reticent to publish that information

Question

Consider a system of two particles. The system was prepared (e.g., by some prior measurement) to have zero total spin. Another measurement is made, either immediately after the preparation or at a later time if Schrodinger evolution does not disturb the total spin of the system. This other measurement finds the spin of one particle to be "up" in some selected direction. We conclude that the spin of the other particle must be "down" relative to the same selected direction. However, this conclusion can only be valid if the measurement did not disturb the total spin of the two-particle system. I don't doubt that this is correct, but my problem is not knowing how to derive, from basic principles that I have learned, that the spin measurement of a single particle does not disturb the total spin of the two-particle system. Using more mathematical terminology, the problem is to show that an operator associated with single-particle spin (I'm not sure what that means for a two-particle system) commutes with the operator associated with total system spin. How can we show that these operators commute?
Relevant answer
Answer
In response to Stam, what I meant by "the measurement does not disturb the total spin" is that the total spin is guaranteed to be zero after the measurement (recall that it was initially prepared to be zero). I was questioning how we know this to be true. It certainly depends on what kind of measurement was performed but I was tacitly assuming that the measurement is the "right kind of measurement" so my question is equivalent to asking if there is such a thing as the "right kind of measurement." Also, my meaning of " Schrodinger evolution does not disturb the total spin of the system " is that the Hamiltonian has no spin interactions. Anyway, I am happy with the answer and attached chapter that I got from Spiros.

where Ac is the set of elements belongs to A such that ab=ba for all b in A.
We have that Ac is contained in z(A(+) ), but I dont know when it is equal.

My question concersns operators on Hilbert spaces.
It is well-known that any family of mutually commuting compact self-adjoint operators can be simultaneously diagonalized. Is the same true for any family of mutually commuting bounded self-adjoint operators?
Relevant answer
Answer
I doubt that the answer can be positive even in the case of one operator.
Namely, consider the operator $T: L_2[0, 1] \to L_2[0, 1]$ that acts by the rule $(Tf)(t) = t f(t)$. This is a self-adjoint operator, its spectrum is $[0, 1]$ and its projection-valued measure $m_T$ is easy to calculate: for every Borel subset $D \subset [0, 1]$ $m_T(D)$ is the orthoprojector onto the subspace $L_2(D)$ of those $f \in L_2[0, 1]$ whose support lies (up to a subset of Lebesgue measure 0) in D.
So, for this $T$ you want to have an orthonormal basis $E= (e_k)_{k \in \mathbb N}$ such that for every Borel subset $D \subset [0, 1]$ of positive measure the intersection of $E$ and $L_2(D)$ forms a basis in $L_2(D)$. But this is impossible, because for the sequence $A_n$ of supports of $e_n$ one can find a Borel set $D$ of positive measure such that for each $n$ the set $[0, 1] \setminus D$ intersects $A_n$ by a set of positive measure, which means that for this special $D$ the intersection of $E$ and $L_2(D)$ is empty.

It has likert scale of 7 point. It says ," For evaluating the overall attitude of each respondent regarding bicycle use for commuting the sum of ratings of all the items was taken. Thus, the largest possible value for the overall assessment of attitude is (12 x 49) = 588 (fully embraces bicycle use) and the lowest possible value is (12 x 1) = 12 (totally against the use of bicycles). The average value is 271.1 (with standard deviation equal to 70.8)".
Here 12 means the number of questions that the authors used in the survey.
I am having trouble to find out the average value. How was the calculation done?
Relevant answer
Answer
Hello Sunita,
Ordinarily, for a 7-point Likert-type scale, you'd expect the response values for a single item to be a set of successive integers (e.g., 1,2,..7). Hence, for a 12-item scale set, the minimum and maximum scores would be expected to be 12x1 = 12 (which matches the value you cite) and 12x7 = 84 (which does not match the value you cite).
Perhaps the authors did something unusual, such as the squared integer value for each item's response scale (1, 4, 9, ... 49). That would be consistent with the 12x49 value. However, there really should be some justification given in the article for why such a scheme was imposed.
Good luck with your work!

I am planning to conduct a study on commuting scenarios. For the study, I need to control the tiredness (fatigue), visual attention and crowdedness in order to simulate the actual commuting scenario (e.g. by bus). I have read some articles on Stroop effect, n-back test and Go/NoGo test to control the fatigue. But I don't know how to control the visual attention and crowdedness, I couldn't find more articles on this. Any suggestions?
Relevant answer
Answer
Given that you want to assess a real-life scenario, it might make sense to actually simulate one. You could look at virtual reality scenarios to place your participants on either a crowded or a half-empty bus, train or subway. In terms of visual attention, you could use two scenarios in which the other passengers are either quiet and non-engaging vs. a scenario where they are a bit more active and visually engaging for the participant to draw their visual attention.
That would leave a few questions:
- is such scenario already available? I'm not aware of any, so it might have to be created.
- how to implement traditional neuropsych tests in such scenario? Maybe look at publications by Thomas Parsons, he has done so with various real-world scenarios.
- do you have to use traditional neuropsych tests? Not really, as you could also implement more naturalistic (ecologically relevant) assessments of attention (or whatever you intend to measure). However, you might want to correlate whatever you measure in the scenario with traditional (validated) neuropsych measures since that's what this field still fixates on.
Let me know if you have any questions. Best of luck.

At first glance such a question seems to be absurd, since the multiplication of imaginary units of quaternion basis is non-commutative. Nevertheless, as shown in [1], the quaternionic multiplication of the so-called quaternionic H-holomorphic functions behaves as commutative. All quaternionic H-holomorphic functions can be constructed by simple replacement of a complex variable as single whole by a quaternionic one in expressions for complex holomorphic functions, depending on only complex variable as single whole. Everyone can construct the quaternionic ℍ-holomorphic functions by such a replacement and thereafter verify their commutativity. For convenience, I cite (according to Theorem 2.4.1 in [1]) the proof of this fact in attached file. I would like here to draw attention to this fact and discuss it. Is this result unexpected for you? Are you aware of the other cases of the multiplicative commutativity of quaternionic functions? Could you comment on it?

In the set M_n of nxn square matrices, the Zero matrix commutes with all other matrices, and in particular Zero matrix commutes with any non- diagonalizable matrix. Obviously, commute does not imply diagonalizable.
If we consider the set D_n of the square diagonalizable matrices,
the statement: Commutative matrices are simultaneously diagonalizable
is true over the set D_n. Mathematically, this is what I exactly meant, because the other case is trivial and well-known.
So, your suggestion is to make a general statement:
Diagonalizable commute matrices are simultaneously diagonalizable.

At the moment zero cross detection scheme has been employed in the floating phase for position detection of the rotor while two phases are energized at a time.

The problem is sometimes commutation works fine and sometimes not. In other words it is not reliable.

Dear Biswanath Rath,
To generate commutative matrices is a primary issue.
In fact, if A is any kxk matrix and p(x) , g(x) are any polynomials
of any order, then p(A),g(A), p(g(A)), g(p(A)),etc..all are commuting matrices.
Moreover, if A is invertible, then p(A-1),g(A-1), p(g(A-1)), g(p(A-1)), ...,p(A),g(A), p(g(A)), g(p(A)),....etc all are commuting matrices.
The obtained results are very elementary, and no new results appeared.
Notice that equations (13) and (14), (31), (32) have the forms A = aI+ M , B=bI +M, and are trivially commute, I is the identity.
This works for any dimension nxn and not only for 2x2, 3x3 matrices.

Martin Margreiter in research gate, he is also working on autonomous driving, but to be clear still in many countries car is preferable mood, according to A successful city is not a city where the poor have the possibility to ride cars, but where the rich are using high quality Public Transport and Non-motorized Transport means“ ( Penalosa, 2009). the ride in car give you more comfort, its individual ride, luxury and bla bla. but travel in public transportation along with travel time, its also give you more freedom to access every corner of the city even in peak hour, example is Germany, France, Spain etc. Second important point to look for the productivity to travel in public Transport, that will increase, as per capita less emission you will produced which is strong contributor to environment, reduce to cost of congestion. in those countries which i mentioned earlier, the public transportation is more quick and reliable as compare to your personal ride, as the system as design to encourage, select and promote public transportation as your first choice to travel. You can look for all these terms in literature review there is bundle of work already done in the same field, you are a researcher so try to look and dig for specific terms, if you get things easily you will not get anywhere, wish you all the best.

Different stakeholders of transportation system are often found concerned with different aspects of it. For instance,
  • The traveller or commuter thinks about what will be the travel time on a particular route? Whether he/she will be able to reach the destination in time?
  • The transportation manager thinks about how the system performed yesterday? which locations are the worst performers?
  • The traffic engineer thinks about the locations of congestion hotspots and the peak hours for various routes.
  • The planners and researchers think about what will be the travel demand in future and how they can address it.
Based on their concerns, they have different expectations from the "Intelligent Transportation System". I am looking for these expectations from different perspectives especially for developing countries like India.
Relevant answer
Answer
Intelligent Transport Systems cover technologies based on the use and application of information and communication technologies in the transport sector, which are used to provide services for people, vehicles and infrastructure on the way to a Smart City.
The basic concern is to guarantee, secure and increase the mobility of road users. Mobility must be seen as a basic human need on the one hand, and as a possibility linked to infrastructure to pursue daily activities at different locations on the other. Mobility is therefore both a characteristic of the quality of life of individuals and a prerequisite for the economic success of society as a whole.
Intelligent transport systems make significant contributions to maintaining mobility into old age. It can be assumed that the future demand for individual and public transport will continue to increase, precisely because of the demographic development in industrial nations. To be able to meet this higher demand, the existing traffic infrastructure must be operated efficiently in terms of energy efficiency and environmental compatibility. A major contribution to this must be made by the increased use of intelligent transport systems with which an increase in traffic efficiency and traffic safety can be achieved.

I am doing hard commutation of the converter for now, so it is expected that the converter will encounter problems in commutation. For that I am planning to use a clamp circuit. Do I still need RC snubbers across my devices. The application is of 230 V, and the devices are rated at 1000 V.
Also, if I am using a purely resistive load, will the circuit stray inductance be substantial enough to damage the switches in the absence of a clamp?
I am not providing any dead time, should that be fine?
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Tabish,
I have examined the picture you sent to Martin and It is clear to me you have a design layout problem. You would need to provide a more detailed schematic of your circuit to allow us to assist you. See attached example.
For example the rectifier for the DC link has very small electrolytic capacitors and these should be increased significantly. You will need a DC link precharge circuit (for testing slowly increasing the DC link voltage using a variac should be ok) and I would suggest you place fuse and resistor (for testing only) on the output of the DC link so that this fuse and resistor will limit and fault current due to shoot through faults. As the DC link capacitors are high resistance you will need a snubber cap to be place across it to handle the high transient switching currents.
Also it appears your switches (S1-S6) only use a single gate drive wire (brown wires) with no return and should use a twisted pair to each gate/gate emitter. It appears you have a major loop in each gate drive circuit that will serve as a nice antennae to induce voltage within it when any other device switches / carries current.
I am unable to see but it appear you re using your own driver circuits which I think will create should through faults due to lack of dead-band. You should rather try to use readily available driver circuits as you are using small IGBTS. Try google gate drive circuits there are low cost driver circuit modules available.
These modules have built in dead-time to prevent shoot through faults but which will still require proper driver circuit and power circuit layout. In fact I am surprised that your supervisor did not point put all these issues to you before allowing you to even turn on the circuit.
I would start with a single device first and get that to work and the move to two devices in a single leg and let the driver modules take care of the dead-band. You may then try and compensate any such delays but what is clear is that you cannot have zero dead-band (as others have correctly noted) otherwise you will have a pile of blown devices.
Also do not feel bad as all of us have done same and we are not born with experience or wisdom. I think you need to reconsider your circuit layout and power design approach and if you provide schematics others will assist

Hemp Airlines (HA, “we fly high”) is about to buy 5 CFA3000 commuter jets. Each airplane costs $50 million. A friendly bank has put together a consortium to finance the deal. The consortium includes a 20% equity investment and an 80% debt component. The debt has an interest rate of 8% annually, and is a term loan over 10 years. At the end of each of the next 10 years, HA will pay a lease payment of $35 million. At the end of the 10-year lease term, Hemp has the option to buy the aircraft for $10 million each; it is anticipated that it will exercise this option in which the planes are priced at their anticipated fair market value. The airplanes will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 5 years to zero salvage value. If the equity partner in the lease has a tax rate of 35%, what is its expected compound rate of return?

Everybody talks about UAV (personal or Taxi service) being a game changer to our way of traveling and commuting.
Looking at ongoing research activities and some early flight demonstrators I notice that most of them have multiple, unducted/open, and interacting rotors. Solely from a system noise point of view I would assume that this will probably be the least successful approach.
Are there any new conceptual designs that will even stand a chance if community noise exposure and annoyance is really a topic (aside of "certification" or legislation issues)?
Relevant answer
Answer
I think this is a good question. Noise is a drawback for rotocraft.
But it is unavoidable, like helicoper. But we can reduce it with low rotation speed. Increase the dimension and number of blades is good choice. If you want to eliminate the noise, maybe you can try fixed wing or flap wing.

I am attempting to do ex vivo imaging of mouse retinal tissue on a multi-photon microscope, but the microscope is located about 30 minutes away from where I dissect out the retina. I attempted to just transport the retina in an airtight tube (on ice) containing oxygenated Ames' medium (pH 7.4), but am not getting good images once the retina reaches its destination. My hypothesis is that the tissue is not surviving the 30 minute commute without bubbling Ames' medium.
Does anyone know of a portable carbogen (95% oxygen, 5% CO2) tank that I could buy for purposes of transporting my live retinal tissue? Or of any kind of special container I could use for these purposes? Any expertise on this matter would help me greatly. Thanks in advance!
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Katelyn,
I suspect that your problem is not just the bubbling with carbogen but also the mechanical irritation of the retinal cells due to motion. I suggest you find a way of dissecting retina where the microscope is located. Also after such a long mechanical stimulation you will need to change and wash your tissue for at least half an hour to washout debris and toxins released by dead/dying cells.
best wishes,

I have that R is the k-algebra (k is a field) finitely generated by S={f1,...,fm}⊂k[x1,⋯,xn] and this set of polynomials is minimal with respect to inclusion (i.e., e do not have redundant elements). However, I know that the fi's are algebraically dependent. Can be the number m=|S| unique? What are the conditions?
Relevant answer
Answer
Generally, this number is not unique.  For example, {x} and {x2,x+x2} are both minimal sets of generators of k[x]. For the subalgebra k of k[x1,...,xn] every minimal set of generators has 0 elements (duh). I suspect that this is the only example where the number of elements in a minimal set of generators is unique. 
The situation is different in the graded case. The polynomial ring k[x1,...,xn] has a grading. If R is a graded sub-algebra then every minimal set of homogeneous generators of R has d elements, where d is the dimension of the k-vector space m/m2 and m is the ideal generated by all homogeneous polynomials in R of positive degree. If R is not finitely generated then d is infinite. Every minimal set of (not necessarily homogeneous) generators of R must have at least d elements.

Given that the spatial organization of the city is fixed (or worse, increasingly sprawled) what can we do to reduce the VMT needed for commuting? Are there signs that US style patterns will dominate in large cities?
Relevant answer
Answer
I suggest to use cautiously the concept of excess commuting because of three arguments. There is some excess from one particular point of view, that of the spatial planner, or the urban researcher; there is probably no excess from the point of view of the traveller. In addition excess travel in the literature sometimes refer to trips longer than they could be (King et Mast 1987) and trips done by pure pleasure of the trip itself (Mokhtarian et Salomon 2001). I have no suggestion for an alternative concept but wanted just to warn that this can have several interpretations not directly related to the topic of auto and urban form.

The positive aspect of urban sprawl is cheaper property value compared to CBD. If one chooses to live in a suburb, obviously you would have a "committed cost" which is a travelling cost. But if one chooses to buy property in the city, it will be also known as a property investment wherein the value of the property will appreciate overtime.
This scenario is based on if your job or business opportunity is based at a CBD. Hence what are your opinions on the statement above?
Relevant answer
Answer
Thanks for the feedback Chris!
In my opinion, it does rely on career opportunities and that is why many chooses moving to the city believing it will be suitable. Hence, the concept of centralized employment structure should be changed. This will allow for density distribution and this may also reduce the impact of population growth.

Answer
Thanks for the interesting question and the discussion so far.
I would like to add another aspect in the mobility/sedentariness dimension. Im doing research on the role of stays abroad, in my case high school exchange and its meaning in later life of former participants. These kinds of stays abroad (like student exchange, au-pair-stays, some shorter stays for work like internships, voluntary services and others) add a new aspect to the seemingly opposed extremes of "mobility" and "sedentariness": a stay abroad is in between the two. On the one hand you have to perform an act of mobility to get to your destination. But being there, an important part of the experience is to live there (for some months or for a year) and to integrate, thus adding the dimension of being sedentary, even if only for a while. I would argue that these kinds of stays abroad are breaking up or at least softening the seeming antagonism of mobility and sedentariness, just like e.g. the phenomenon of multilocality is doing.
Speaking in numbers, the meaning of stays abraod (at least in Germany) has heavily increased in the last 20 years. But of course it is a phenomenon that is mostly related to members of the well-educated middle class. So - does it increase mobility? In a way yes, but it is also differentiating the meaning of mobility.
