"Stochastic Gravity in Conformally-flat Spacetimes"
to be presented by Prof. Hing-Tong Cho (Tamkang University, Taiwan)
Abstract: The theory of stochastic gravity takes into account the effects of quantum field fluctuations onto the classical spacetime. The essential physics can be understood from the analogous Brownian motion model. We shall next concentrate on the case with conformally-flat spacetimes. Our main concern is to derive the so-called noise kernels. We shall also describe our on-going program to investigate the Einstein-Langevin equation in these spacetimes.

On the k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral and applications Premier Publishers
Fractional calculus is a generalization of ordinary differentiation and integration to arbitrary non-integer order. The subject is as old as differential calculus and goes back to times when G.W. Leibniz and I. Newton invented differential calculus. Fractional integrals and derivatives arise in many engineering and scientific disciplines as the mathematical modeling of systems and processes in the fields of physics, chemistry, aerodynamics, electrodynamics of a complex medium. Very recently, Mubeen and Habibullah have introduced the k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral defined by using the -Gamma function, which is a generalization of the classical Gamma function. In this paper, we presents a new fractional integration is called k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, which generalizes the k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral. Then, we prove the commutativity and the semi-group properties of the -Riemann-Liouville fractional integral and we give Chebyshev inequalities for k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral. Later, using k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, we establish some new integral inequalities.
Prove that compactness is a topological property. SolutionSupp.pdffasttracktreding
Prove that compactness is a topological property.
Solution
Suppose that X and Y are topological spaces, and f : X Y is a homeomorphism. That is, f : X Y
is a bijection, f and f 1 : Y X are continuous.
(i) Compactness is a topological property:
This is to show that if X is compact, then Y is also.
Suppose that X is compact. We want to show that Y is also compact.
Our strategy is to apply the definition, and show that every infinite sequence of points in Y has a
limit point in Y . Let {yi} i=1 be an infinite sequence of points in Y .
Let xi = f 1 (yi), i = 1, 2, ... Then {xi}i=1 is an infinite sequence of points in X.
Since X is compact, {xi}i=1 has a limit point a in X.
Since f : X Y is continuous, f(a) is a limit point of {f(xi)}i=1 = {yi}i =1.
Since f(a) Y , the sequence {yi}i=1 has a limit point in Y .
By the definition of compact sets, Y is compact..

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

5. Gauge covariant approach (1)
In the presence of an gauge field Fij expressed (locally) in
terms of the potential 1 -form Aµ
F = dA ,
the Hamiltonian is
1 ij
H= g (pi − Ai )(pj − Aj ) + V (x) ,
2
including a scalar potential V(x).
6. Gauge covariant approach (2)
Gauge covariant formulation [van Holten 2007]
Introduce the gauge invariant momenta

Πi = pi − Ai = xi .
Hamiltonian becomes

10. Killing-Yano tensors (1)
A Killing-Yano (KY) tensor is a p -form Y (p ≤ n) which satisfies
1
XY = X −| dY ,
p+1
for any vector field X , where ’hook’ operator −| is dual to the
wedge product.
In components,
Yi1 ···ip−1 (ip ;j) = 0 .
SK and KY tensors could be related. Let Yi1 ···ip be a KY tensor,
then the symmetric tensor field
i2 ···ip
Kij = Yii2 ···ip Yj ,
is a SK tensor
11. Killing-Yano tensors (2)
A conformal Killing-Yano (CKY) tensor is a p -form which
satisfies
1 1
XY = X −| dY − X ∧ d ∗Y ,
p+1 n−p+1
where X denotes the 1 -form dual with respect to the metric to
the vector field X and d ∗ is the exterior co-derivative. Hodge
dual maps the space of p-forms into the space of (n − p)-forms.
Conventions:
∗∗Y = pY , ∗−1 Y = p ∗Y ,
with the number p
detg
p = (−1)p ∗−1 .
|detg|
d ∗ Y = (−1)p ∗−1 d ∗ Y .
12. Killing-Yano tensors (3)
Conformal generalization of the SK tensors, namely a
symmetric tensor Ki1···ip = K(i1···ip) is called a conformal
Stackel-Killing (CSK) tensor if it obeys the equation
˜
K(i1 ···ip ;j) = gj(i1 Ki2 ···ip ) ,
˜
where the tensor K is determined by tracing the both sides of
equation .
Similar relation between CKY and CSK tensors: If Yij is a CKY
tensor
Kij = Yj k Ykj ,
is a CSK tensor.
13. Killing-Yano tensors (4)
Remarks:
CKY equation is invariant under Hodge duality.
A CKY tensor is a KY tensor iff it is co-closed.
Dual of a CKY tensor is a KY tensor iff it is closed.
14. Killing-Yano tensors (5)
An interesting construction involving CKY tensors Yij of rank 2
in 4 dimensions.
In this particular case:
1
Yi(j;k) = − gjk Y li;l + gi(k Yj)l ;l ,
3
and let us denote
Yk := Y lk;l .
This vector satisfies equation:
3
Y(i;j) = R Y l.
2 l(i j)
It is obvious that in a Ricci flat space (Rij = 0 ) or in an Einstein
space ( Rij ∼ gij ),Yk is a Killing vector and we shall refer to it as
the primary Killing vector.
15. Killing-Maxwell system (1)
Returning to the system of equations for the conserved
quantities e should like to find the conditions of the
electromagnetic tensor field Fij to maintain the hidden
symmetry of the system. To make things more specific, let us
assume that the system admits a hidden symmetry
encapsulated in a SK tensor of rank 2, Kij associated with a KY
tensor Yij . The sufficient condition of the electromagnetic field
to preserve the hidden symmetry is
Fk[i Yj]k = 0 .
where the indices in square bracket are to be antisymmetrized.
16. Killing-Maxwell system (2)
A concrete realization of this condition is presented by the
Killing-Maxwell system [Carter 1997]. In Carter’s construction a
primary Killing vector is identified, modulo a rationalization
factor, with the source current j i of the electromagnetic field
F ij ;j = 4πj i .
Therefore the Killing-Maxwell system is defined assuming that
the electromagnetic field Fij is a CKY tensor. In addition, it is
a closed 2-form and its Hodge dual
Yij = ∗Fij ,
is a KY tensor.
Now let us consider that the hidden symmetry of the system to
consider is associated with the KY tensor of the Killing-Maxwell
system. It is quite simple to observe that Fij Yk j ∼ Fij ∗ Fk j is a
symmetric matrix ( in fact proportional with the unit matrix) and
therefore above condition is fulfilled.
17. Examples (1)
Example I. Kerr space (1)
To exemplify the results for Killing-Maxwell system, let us
consider the Kerr solution to the vacuum Einstein equations
[Boyer-Lindquist coordinates (t, r , θ, φ)]

This metric describes a rotating black hole of mass m and
angular momentum J = am.

in addition to the metric tensor gij . This tensor is associated
with the KY tensor

+a cos θ dr ∧ (dt − a sin2 θdφ).
19. Examples (3)
Example I. Kerr space (3)
The dual tensor
∗Y = a sin θ cos θ dθ ∧ [−a dt + (r 2 + a2 ) dφ]
+r dr ∧ (−dt + a sin2 θ dφ)
is a CKY tensor ( electromagnetic field Fij of KM system).
Four-potential one-form is
1 2 1
A= (a cos2 θ − r 2 )dt + a (r 2 + a2 ) sin2 θ dφ.

Finally, the current is to be identified with the primary Killing
vector
Yk := Y kl;k ∂l = 3∂t .

dψ µ cos θ
= − (pφ − µ cos θ) .
dt g(r ) f (r )r 2 sin2 θ
The metric on R4 defines horizontal spaces orthoghonal to the
orbits of the circle, annihilated by the connection
dψ + cos θdφ .
32. Examples (16)
Example II. Generalized Taub-NUT space (13)
The metric on R4 can be written in the form
ds4 = f (r )(dr 2 + r 2 (dθ2 + sin2 θdφ2 )) + h(r )(dψ + cos θdφ)2 .

The natural symplectic form on T (R4 − {0}) is
dΘ = dΘµ + dpψ ∧ dψ .

Considering the geodesic flow of ds4 and taking into account
that ψ is a cycle variable
˙ ˙
pψ = h(r )(ψ + cos θφ) ,
is a conserved quantity. To make contact with the Hamiltonian
dynamics on T (R3 − {0}) we must identify
h(r ) = g(r ) .
33. Quantum anomalies (1)
In the quantum case, the momentum operator is given by µ
and the Hamiltonian operator for a free scalar particle is the
covariant Laplacian acting on scalars
ij i
H= = ig j = i
For a CK vector we define the conserved operator in the
quantized system as
QV = K i i .
In order to identify a quantum gravitational anomaly we shall
evaluate the commutator [ , QV ]Φ , for Φ ∈ C ∞ (M) solutions of
the Klein-Gordon equation.
34. Quantum anomalies (2)
Explicit evaluation of the commutator:
2 − n ;ki 2 k
[H, QV ] = Kk i + K .
n n ;k
In the case of ordinary K vectors, the r. h. s. of this commutator
vanishes and there are no quantum gravitational anomalies.
However for CK vectors, the situation is quite different. Even if
we evaluate the r. h. s. of the commutator on solutions of the
massless Klein-Gordon equation, Φ(x) = 0,the term Kj ;ji i
survives. Only in a very special case, when by chance this term
vanishes, the anomalies do not appear.

In case of Stackel-Killing tensors the commutator simplifies:

[ , QT ] = − k (Rm K ) j .

There are a few notable conditions for which the commutator
vanishes, i.e. No anomalies:
Space is Ricci flat, i. e. Rij = 0
Space is Einstein, i. e. Rij ∝ gij

37. Quantum anomalies (5)
In case of conformal Stackel-Killing tensors there are quantum
gravitational anomalies. Even if we evaluate the commutator for
a conformal Stackel-Killing tensor associated to a conformal
Killing-Yano tensor
Kij = Yik Y k .
j
the commutator does not vanish.
