    3-charge geometries and their CFT duals

    Full text link
    We consider two families of D1-D5-P states and find their gravity duals. In each case the geometries are found to `cap off' smoothly near r=0; thus there are no horizons or closed timelike curves. These constructions support the general conjecture that the interior of black holes is nontrivial all the way up to the horizon.Comment: 41 pages, 1 figure LaTeX; small changes in the analysis of orbifold singularities in section 4, some typos correcte

    Teaching in the 21st Century- Skills and Knowledge

    Universities are learning human systems. Knowledge and intellectual capital represent our national wealth. For a university to build knowledge architecture, it has to firstly build and manage the inventory of people, systems and decisions. Knowledge technologies must be incorporated to reengineer the entire business process. The reorientation of skills and resources is necessary to create better combinations of inorganic growth of the university. In today‘s era, we need universities where students have ingrained commitment to improve their capacity to create and innovate ideas respond to uncertainty, to challenges in the market place and to adjust to the change in general. The universities, as a group of people have to continuously enhance their capacity to design what they want to create. The paper builds an insight to create university learning system that has an ingrained philosophy for anticipating reacting and responding to change complexity and uncertainty

    Multimodal Machine Learning for Automated ICD Coding

    Full text link
    This study presents a multimodal machine learning model to predict ICD-10 diagnostic codes. We developed separate machine learning models that can handle data from different modalities, including unstructured text, semi-structured text and structured tabular data. We further employed an ensemble method to integrate all modality-specific models to generate ICD-10 codes. Key evidence was also extracted to make our prediction more convincing and explainable. We used the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC -III) dataset to validate our approach. For ICD code prediction, our best-performing model (micro-F1 = 0.7633, micro-AUC = 0.9541) significantly outperforms other baseline models including TF-IDF (micro-F1 = 0.6721, micro-AUC = 0.7879) and Text-CNN model (micro-F1 = 0.6569, micro-AUC = 0.9235). For interpretability, our approach achieves a Jaccard Similarity Coefficient (JSC) of 0.1806 on text data and 0.3105 on tabular data, where well-trained physicians achieve 0.2780 and 0.5002 respectively.Comment: Machine Learning for Healthcare 201

    Constructing "hair" for the three charge hole

    Full text link
    It has been found that the states of the 2-charge extremal D1-D5 system are given by smooth geometries that have no singularity and no horizon individually, but a `horizon' does arise after `coarse-graining'. To see how this concept extends to the 3-charge extremal system, we construct a perturbation on the D1-D5 geometry that carries one unit of momentum charge PP. The perturbation is found to be regular everywhere and normalizable, so we conclude that at least this state of the 3-charge system behaves like the 2-charge states. The solution is constructed by matching (to several orders) solutions in the inner and outer regions of the geometry. We conjecture the general form of `hair' expected for the 3-charge system, and the nature of the interior of black holes in general.Comment: 37 pages, 7 figures LaTex, Minor revision in the discussio

    What is the gravity dual of a chiral primary?

    Get PDF
    In the AdS/CFT correspondence a chiral primary is described by a supergravity solution with mass equaling angular momentum. For AdS_3 X S^3 we are led to consider three special families of metrics with this property: metrics with conical defects, Aichelburg-Sexl type metrics generated by rotating particles, and metrics generated by giant gravitons. We find that the first two of these are special cases of the complete family of chiral primary metrics which can be written down using the general solution in hep-th/0109154, but they correspond to two extreme limits - the conical defect metrics map to CFT states generated by twist operators that are all identical, while the Aichelburg-Sexl metrics yield a wide dispersion in the orders of these twists. The giant graviton solutions in contrast do not represent configurations of the D1-D5 bound state; they correspond to fragmenting this system into two or more pieces. We look at the large distance behavior of the supergravity fields and observe that the excitation of these fields is linked to the existence of dispersion in the orders and spins of the twist operators creating the chiral primary in the CFT.Comment: 33 pages, Latex, 3 figure

    Prevalence of self-reported reproductive tract infections/sexually transmitted infections symptoms and treatment seeking behavior among the married tribal women in Udaipur, Rajasthan

    Background: Indian tribes are culturally distinct communities, with unique traditions and practices. Lack of awareness and “culture of silence” about reproductive health issues among women in rural areas contributes to high burden of reproductive tract infections/sexually tract infections. Rural tribal women also suffer from ignorance, poverty and lack of access to quality health care, which makes them more vulnerable to RTIs/STIs.Methods: It was a community based cross sectional study conducted among 200 tribal women living in rural Udaipur, Rajasthan. The study was conducted from May 2019 to November 2019. A predesigned, pretested and structured questionnaire was used to take the interview of eligible women. Questionnaire included questions about sociodemographic profile, questions to assess the knowledge regarding RTIs and history of occurrence of any RTI symptom in the past six months and; questions to assess the treatment seeking behaviour for RTI symptoms.Results: Most of the participants were 26-35 years old.About 37% gave the history of experiencing RTI symptoms, vaginal discharge being the most common (46%) symptom. Regarding the treatment, most (34%) of the females took treatment from government hospital, followed by 26% of women who bought the medicines direct from pharmacy (over the counter), about 16% consulted a private practitioner. Prevalence was found to be significantly higher in less educated, belonging to lower socioeconomic status and among non-users of contraceptive methods.Conclusions: Health education and active participation of stakeholders in the reproductive health programs is essential to strengthen the ongoing schemes about improving reproductive health of tribal women

    Tachyon condensation and `bounce' in the D1-D5 system

    Full text link
    We construct supergravity solutions dual to microstates of the D1-D3-D5 system with nonzero B field moduli. Just like the D1-D5 solutions in hep-th/0109154 these solutions are generically nonsingular everywhere, with the `throat' closing smoothly near r=0. We write expressions relating the asymptotic supergravity fields to the integral brane charges. We study the infall of a D1 brane down the throat of the geometries. This test brane `bounces' off the smooth end for generic initial conditions. The details of the bounce depend on both the choice of D1-D3-D5 microstate and the direction of approach of the infalling D1 brane. In the dual field theory description we see that the tachyon mode starts to condense, but the tachyon bounces back up the potential hill without reaching the deepest point of the potential.Comment: 32 pages, references adde
