    Big images of two-dimensional pseudorepresentations

    No full text
    Bellaïche has recently applied Pink-Lie theory to prove that, under mild conditions, the image of a continuous 2-dimensional pseudorepresentation ρρ of a profinite group on a local pro-pp domain AA contains a nontrivial congruence subgroup of SL2(B){\rm SL}_2(B) for a certain subring BB of AA. We enlarge Bellaïche\u27s ring and give this new BB a conceptual interpretation in terms of conjugate self-twists of ρρ, symmetries that naturally constrain its image. As a corollary, this new BB is optimal among congruence subgroups contained in the image. We also interpret the new BB vis-a-vis the adjoint trace ring of ρρ, which we show is a more natural ring for these questions in general. Finally, we use our purely algebraic result to recover and extend a variety of arithmetic big-image results for GL2{\rm GL}_2 Galois representations arising from elliptic, Hilbert, and Bianchi modular forms and pp-adic Hida or Coleman families of elliptic and Hilbert modular forms.71 pages.

    The effects of footwear cushioning on walking performance in females with multiple sclerosis

    2018 Fall.Includes bibliographical references.Multiple sclerosis is a chronic and progressive neurodegenerative disease which incurs a multitude of walking impairments. Protective strategies targeted at maintaining postural stability during walking include increasing stance and double support time with reciprocal decreases in swing and single support time, however these adaptions inadvertently increase fall risk. The midsole construct of footwear has demonstrated the ability to mediate these deficits in running but has not been explored in a neurologic population with known fall risk. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two different midsole conditions on the spatiotemporal parameters of gait in females with multiple sclerosis (MS). Gait testing was conducted while 18 females with MS performed two-minute walk tests in 1) a high-cushion and 2) a standard-cushion midsole shoe. Spatiotemporal gait parameters were assessed using wireless inertial sensors. Participants spent less time in double support and stance phase with concomitantly more time in single support and swing phase in the high-cushion midsole shoe as compared to the standard-cushion. The high-cushion shoe may decrease fall risk by improving gait parameters associated with increased risk of falls

    Evaluating central mechanisms for age-related force control deficits of the legs

    2019 Fall.Includes bibliographical references.Advancing age is accompanied by several motor control impairments, including increased movement and force variability. Specifically, older adults display more variable and less accurate submaximal forces than young adults, which have been associated with fall risk in the aged population. These motor control changes take place in muscles in both the upper and lower limbs, and the mechanisms of these alterations are multifactorial, including sources in the peripheral and central nervous systems. Furthermore, inhibitory signaling in the motor cortex is related to force variability in small hand muscles, as well as to coordination of the legs during walking. It is unknown, however, whether inhibition is associated with force variability in the legs. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between motor cortex inhibition and force variability in the quadriceps muscles of young and old adults. We measured quadriceps force variability and accuracy during a 2-minute force matching task and inhibition via the cortical silent period in 14 young and 15 old adults. Older adults produced more variable and less accurate forces than the young adults, though these differences were not significant. Additionally, older adults displayed less inhibition in their right cortical hemisphere than young adults, as well as interhemispheric inhibitory differences. Specifically, the left hemisphere displayed more inhibition than the right hemisphere in old adults. Furthermore, young adults with more inhibition generally produced more variable and less accurate forces than young adults with less inhibition, while older adults with more inhibition displayed less variable and more accurate forces. The between- and within-group differences in inhibition may point to age-related decline in right hemispheric function. Moreover, between-group differences in inhibition and force variability associations indicate a shift in the inhibitory control of movement, which is a similar finding to previous work on inhibition and lower limb coordination
