description: Superconductivity was achieved in PrFeAsO by partially substituting Pr^{3+} with Sr^{2+}. The electrical transport properties and structure of this new superconductor Pr_{1-x}Sr_xFeAsO at different doping levels (x = 0.05$\sim$ 0.25) were investigated systematically. It was found that the lattice constants (a-axis and c-axis) increase monotonously with Sr or hole concentration. The superconducting transition temperature at about 16.3 K (95% $ρ_n$) was observed around the doping level of 0.20$\sim$ 0.25. A detailed investigation was carried out in the sample with doping level of x = 0.25. The domination of hole-like charge carriers in this material was confirmed by Hall effect measurements. The magnetoresistance (MR) behavior can be well described by a simple two-band model. The upper critical field of the sample with T_c = 16.3 K (x = 0.25) was estimated to be beyond 45 Tesla. Our results suggest that the hole-doped samples may have higher upper critical fields comparing to the electron-doped ones, due to the higher quasi-particle density of states at the Fermi level.

description: I generalise Kolodny and MacFarlane’s miners puzzle by showing epistemic analogues of their case exist. After motivating various conservative approaches to the original problem, I show how they fail to solve the problem in its epistemic guise. I argue that a probabilistic approach to information-sensitivity gives a general solution to the problem. Keywords: deontic modals, miners puzzle, epistemic ‘should’, probability.

Modal height and modal flavor: the case of Wolof "di"

Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2018

description: The Wolof imperfective auxiliary di is compatible with event-in-progress, habitual and future readings. Furthermore, while varieties of all these readings are available for di when it sits in a syntactically low position, only future readings are available when it sits in a syntactically high position. We aim to account for this puzzle by combining several ingredients independently motivated in the literature: (i) event-relative circumstantial modality for event-in-progress, habitual, and a subset of future readings; (ii) metaphyisical modality for generalized future readings; (iii) the idea that syntactic height determines the type of modal anchor that projects a modal base. This study contributes to our understanding of the relation between syntactic height and modal flavor, as well as the nature of modal-aspectual interactions cross-linguistically. Keywords: aspect, future, habitual, imperfective, modality, modal flavor, progressive.

description: We demonstrate a current-controlled, dynamic magnonic crystal. It consists of a ferrite film whose internal magnetic field exhibits a periodic, cosine-like variation. The field modulation is created by a direct current flowing through an array of parallel wires placed on top of a spin-wave waveguide. A single, pronounced rejection band in the spin-wave transmission characteristics is formed due to spin-wave scattering from the inhomogeneous magnetic field. With increasing current the rejection band depth and its width increase strongly. The magnonic crystal allows a fast control of its operational characteristics via the applied direct current. Simulations confirm the experimental results.

description: A modern instrumentation and control system is a cyberphysical system that combines hardware and software components in a network aware environment. The virtualization technologies become common in the development and operation of control systems: they can be used as a tool for system life-cycle extension or for the creation of a comprehensive digital model of the system, a digital twin. The paper deals with the problem of the design of digital twins of cyberphysical systems of an Industry 4.0 era. It analyses and compares the properties of the model in implementation to the modeling of the digital and physical components of a cyberphysical system. A heterogeneous digital model combining virtual machines and emulators and some real software and hardware is recommended for the purposes of testing and verification of complex cyberphysical systems. The role and tradeoff of virtualization environment for control system simulation are discussed. A real use-case of digital modeling is described and discussed. The practical aspects of assessing the performance characteristics in virtual environment and technologies for keeping the synchronous operation of the components the digital twin and the problems of timekeeping within the heterogeneous digital model are discussed.

description: The increasing popularity of Internet of Things (IoT) applications leads to a continuous expansion into further application areas. Since each application poses its own challenges and requirements, many different solutions have been developed to build parts of the IoT. However, this diversity results in new challenges as well. Especially if a cooperation between heterogeneous components or a later addition of components is required, interoperability becomes challenging. Precision agriculture is one example application area that requires both conditions. In this paper, we assess the interoperability of three different implementations of the Thread protocol stack. To this end, we propose an empirical analysis method that can similarly be applied to any other interoperability evaluation. Our results show that the versions under test exhibit various interoperability problems and only certified devices work without issues.

description: We present an alternative approach to the derivation of benchmarks for quantum channels, such as memory or teleportation channels. Using the concept of effective entanglement and the verification thereof, a testing procedure is derived which demands very few experimental resources. The procedure is generalized by allowing for mixed test states. By constructing optimized measure & re-prepare channels, the benchmarks are found to be very tight in the considered experimental regimes.

Embedded implicature in a new interactive paradigm
Creators: name: Benz, Anton

name: Raithel, Lisa
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2018

description: Previous research on scalar implicature has primarily relied on metalinguistic judgment tasks and found varying rates of such inferences depending on the nature of the task and contextual manipulations. This paper introduces a novel interactive paradigm involving both a production and a comprehension component, thereby fixing a precise conversational context. The main research question is what is reliably communicated by some in this communicative setting, when the quantifier occurs in unembedded positions as well as embedded positions. Our new paradigm involves an action-based task from which participants’ interpretation of utterances can be inferred. It incorporates a game–theoretic design, including a precise model to predict participants’ behaviour in the experimental context. Our study shows that embedded and unembedded implicatures are reliably communicated by some. We propose two cognitive principles which describe what can be left unsaid. In our experimental context, a production strategy based on these principles is more efficient (with equal communicative success and shorter utterances) than a strategy based on literal descriptions. Keywords: scalar implicature, embedded implicature, experimental pragmatics, game–theoretic pragmatics.

description: Interweaving Systems (IWS) are systems that have not been designed to cooperate, but can influence each other at runtine through a shared environment. In this paper, we present a general approach that enables IWS to gain an explicit view of the shared environment. The approach is based on ontology alignment and model driven techniques. The core idea is to build a Directory Ontology that shows what systems can know about their environment, and local Connector Ontologies that organize information routing between systems and connect these via ontology alignments. Changes are addressed using ontology mapping adaption. This approach is presented using an application example from the area of traffic control systems. The key benefit of the approach is that it allows supporting and sustaining data integration in Interweaving Systems using explicit and domain-independent rules.

description: Protein folding is a critical process for maintaining proper cellular function, as misfolded proteins can lead to a range of diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease. This paper presents a novel theoretical model suggesting that excessive energy during protein folding can result in misfolded proteins, potentially contributing to Alzheimer’s disease. By exploring functional sequence symmetry and the role of energy minimization, we propose that controlling energy levels during protein synthesis may prevent misfolding and associated pathological conditions.The author acknowledges the use of OpenAI’s language model for assistance in drafting certain sections of this workl

description: Excerpts from the report: Because of increased emphasis on integration of farm operations. Farmer Cooperative Service is interested in obtaining information about impacts of such integration on cooperatives. The Farm Credit Administration is interested in the credit needs and related problems confronting cooperatives and their members that are growing out of further integration of farm operations. Therefore, these agencies have jointly undertaken studies of the effects of integration on cooperatives. The first association selected for study and the subject of this report is the Central Carolina Farmers Exchange, Durham, N. C. (CCFE or the Exchange). This association reported performing a number of different services for its farmer members. These are divided into three broad classes – marketing farm products, providing farm supplies, and furnishing farm business services. This report includes a brief description of kinds of integration and covers the agricultural environment and highlights in the operations of CCFE. It considers the nature and extent of integrated farm enterprises, contractual arrangements used, and appraises the future possibilities for and impacts of integration from the standpoint of both members and the cooperative.

description: A proposal for resolution of the information paradox is that "nice slice" states, which have been viewed as providing a sharp argument for information loss, do not in fact do so as they do not give a fully accurate description of the quantum state of a black hole. This however leaves an information *problem*, which is to provide a consistent description of how information escapes when a black hole evaporates. While a rather extreme form of nonlocality has been advocated in the form of complementarity, this paper argues that is not necessary, and more modest nonlocality could solve the information problem. One possible distinguishing characteristic of scenarios is the information retention time. The question of whether such nonlocality implies acausality, and particularly inconsistency, is briefly addressed. The need for such nonlocality, and its apparent tension with our empirical observations of local quantum field theory, may be a critical missing piece in understanding the principles of quantum gravity.

«Das Entstehen von allem» Zum Seelenbegriff des späten Plato

description: «The emergence of everything». On the concept of the soul in the late Plato.

The analysis of the complex phenomenon of movement in the tenth book of the Laws for the purpose of developing a new, predominantly cosmologically determined concept of soul has always been known as one of the most difficult texts in Plato’s entire work and also as a text that cannot be interpreted unambiguously and finally. The paper would – partly in reliance on the achievements of the so-called Tuebingen interpretation of Plato – try to prove the essential significance of Plato’s late doctrine of principles for the understanding of this movement analysis. In the first place the ontological meaning of the difference between linear and circular movement would be shown, and this with a help of the interpretation of both movements with regard to the mutual influence of the basic principles of the «one» and a «indefinite dual» therein. Only against this foreground can the main principle of late Platonic ethics as set out decisively in Timaeus be understood, namely that the highest virtue of the human life in nothing else consists as to bring the chaotic disorder of the soul movement, caused by the birth, in harmony with regulated circular motion of the universe. With late Plato the soul – the original soul of the universe as well as each individual soul – is not to be understood as one and simple substance, but rather as the differentiated and controversial structure consisting ultimately of two equally original primal forces of all becoming, namely the one and the indefinite duality. From this perspective, the care for the soul is not primarily directed to one’s own self and his own soul, but a lot more and especially to the soul of the whole.

The beasts beneath the round table : the role of animals in Malory's Morte D'Arthur
Creators: name: Dagg, Melvin Harold
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis explores the role of animal imagery in Malory's Morte Darthur. Each chapter of the thesis attempts to achieve this aim by examining the animals from different, though related perspectives. Firstly, wherever possible, Malory's animal imagery is compared to the traditional mythological context of the animal under discussion, and to the appearance of that animal in other relevant Arthurian literature. This approach has proved most useful in Chapter Four, devoted to the dragon, where Malory's use of the dragon is initially antithetical to the traditional connotations associated with it, whereas as the Morte progresses the dragon reverts to its traditional meaning of evil and terror. Similarly, the subject of Chapter Three, the Questing Beast, has entailed a study of the French sources not used by Malory, simply because Malory did not include the complete story of the Questing Beast in the Morte. Without examining those sources, therefore, we would know neither the complete meaning, nor the complete story of this fascinating creature. Secondly, the thesis examines the relationship of the animals in the Morte to Malory's characters. In Chapter One it is shown that Torre and Tristram, unlike Gawain and Pellinor, are worthy of love because of their association with the symbol and token of love, the brachet. In Chapter Two the black bulls envisioned by Gawain are associated with Arthur's entire court, with the exception of the three Grail questers, Percival, Galahad, and Bors, who are represented as white bulls. Chapter Three attempts to show that the flawed characters of Pellinor and Palomides are mirrored in the ugly, elusive, meaningless object of their quest, the Questing Beast. Most significant of all, however, is the simultaneous association of the dragon with Arthur, his Kingdom, and his Knights in the final chapter of the thesis. Thirdly, the thesis examines the thematic function of Malory's animal imagery. Both Gawain's vision of the black and white bulls, and the changing meaning of the dragon symbol, foreshadow and comment on the cause of the tragedy with which the Morte ends. In both Chapter Two, treating the image of the bulls, and Chapter Four, dealing with the dragon, I have strongly suggested that the image of both the bulls and the dragon implies that Arthur's entire court, Arthur included, is responsible for the ruin of the Round Tabie and the fellowship it represented. - ' Thus the thesis concludes that the animals within Malory's Morte Darthur are of extreme importance, not merely as separate entities, but as symbols of varying social and ethical significance, and as thematic devices contributing to the unity of the whole work.

description: Security remains a key discussion point for industrial networks within critical infrastructure and Industry 4.0 (I4.0)/Smart Manufacturing infrastructures. While availability remains the chief security requirement for highest safety, integrity protection has become somewhat equal to availability in industry. Common integrity protection mechanisms, however, are not practical for the time-sensitive networks (TSNs) characteristic of I4.0 and critical infrastructures, where the time-critical and mission-critical transmissions cannot be negatively affected by the security overhead. To sufficiently protect and support TSNs, it is necessary to design an integrity protection scheme that provides lightweight security particularly at the OSI MAC-layer where the TSN protocols are defined. The development and testing of lightweight cryptographic algorithms provide one mean by which to achieve such an integrity protection, however, additional steps are needed to design and prove a suitable scheme. TSN-MIC is proposed as a viable scheme for MAC-layer security for TSNs in critical infrastructure and I4.0/Smart Manufacturing.

description: In supersymmetric models extended with an anomalous $U(1)_H$ different R-parity violating couplings can yield an unstable neutralino. We show that in this context astrophysical and cosmological constraints on neutralino decaying dark matter forbid bilinear R-parity breaking neutralino decays and lead to a class of purely trilinear R-parity violating scenarios in which the neutralino is stable on cosmological scales. We have found that among the resulting models some of them become suitable to explain the observed anomalies in cosmic-ray electron/positron fluxes.

Scalar diversity and negative strengthening

Year: 2018

description: In recent years, experimental research has demontrated great variability in the rates of scalar inferences across different triggering expressions (Doran et al. 2009, 2012, van Tiel et al. 2016). These studies have been taken as evidence against the so-called uniformity assumption, which posits that scalar implicature is triggered by a single mechanism and that the behaviour of one scale should generalize to the whole family of scales. In the following, we present an experimental study that tests negative strengthening for a variety of strong scalar terms, following up on van Tiel et al. (2016). For example, we tested whether the statement John is not brilliant is strengthened to mean that John is not intelligent (see especially Horn 1989). We show that endorsement rates of the scalar implicature (e.g., John is intelligent but not brilliant) are anti-correlated with endorsements of negative strengthening. Further, we demonstrate that a modified version of the uniformity hypothesis taking into account negative strengthening is consistent with van Tiel et al.’s data. Therefore, variation across scales may be more systematic than suggested by the van Tiel et al. study. Keywords: Scalar diversity, scalar implicature, manner implicature, negative strengthening, inferencing task.

description: In this paper, we present the first model for hydrogen-fueled bus fleet operation with on-site hydrogen production. To support the planning and operation of municipal hydrogen bus fleets, we transfer and adapt a vehicle scheduling algorithm for conventional buses. We optimize vehicle routes with regard to minimizing operational costs. Based on that, we implement a hydrogen refueling strategy suited to minimize the peak demand for a hydrogen refueling station with on-site electrolysis. To demonstrate the functionality of the approach, it is applied to a real-world scenario for public transport in Karlsruhe, Germany. The findings show that the scheduling strategy for vehicle routing and fueling is suited to reduce peak hydrogen demand and thus the required electrolyser capacity and associated costs. In comparison to a naive benchmark refueling scenario, the peak demand is reduced by 20%, lowering investment costs by 400,000 €.
Decomposing cornering effects

description: Alternative Questions with “or not” (NAQ) convey a cornering effect, which is not found with they polar counterparts (PQ). This effect has been claimed to consist of two parts (Biezma 2009): NAQs (i) cannot be used discourse-initially and (ii) they do not license followup questions/subquestions. In this paper, we ask the following: Are both parts of cornering linked to the same property of NAQs? Or do they reflect distinct linguistic phenomena? We explore the issue by comparing the behavior of NAQs to Complement Alternative Questions (CAQ), a type of question that, like NAQs, presents logically opposite alternatives but, unlike NAQs, fully spells out the second one. Results from two experiments suggest that both parts of cornering can instead be explained in terms of independent semantic and pragmatic principles, which operate beyond the domain of alternative questions. Keywords: Alternative Questions, cornering, discourse, focus, information structure.

description: The inclusive decay B --> X_u l nu is of much interest because of its potential to constrain the CKM element |V_ub|. Experimental cuts required to suppress charm background restrict measurements of this decay to the shape-function region, where the hadronic final state carries a large energy but only a moderate invariant mass. In this kinematic region, the differential decay distributions satisfy a factorization formula of the form $H \cdot J \otimes S$, where S is the non-perturbative shape function, and the object $H \cdot J$ is a perturbatively calculable hard-scattering kernel. In this paper we present the calculation of the hard function H at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbation theory. Combined with the known NNLO result for the jet function J, this completes the perturbative part of the NNLO calculation for this process.

Subjects: Open education

description: This is an openly licensed framework that can be used by educators and students to construc jam, conferences and events, fully online or blended, using creative and active learning approaches with professionals and/or students in higher education or other educational settings.

 The ideas for the Open Jam Jar are based on research and practice of the #creativeHE community, the related annual #creativeHE jam and inspired and shaped further by the Global Culture Jam (GCJ) which took place at Manchester Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom in June 2021 and attracted over 1400 sign-ups from different parts of the world. Global Culture Jam is a collaborative project that aims to bring together students and staff to explore and celebrate cross-cultural learning, teaching and living through the following strands: community, sustainability, curriculum and creativity.

 These were defined and agreed with the team of collaborators taking into consideration strategic institutional goals, aspirations and as well as wider higher education conversations and areas of focus and exploration that presented rich opportunities to bring diverse views and perspectives together that would be of value for organisers, the institution participants from different parts of the world and the wider academic community.

 The team intends to share lessons learnt from the GCJ and make the Open Jam Jar framework available to others to re-use, adapt and re-package to create their own Jam event using the Open Jam Jar framework we have developed.

description: For a directed acyclic graph, there are two known criteria to decide whether any specific conditional independence statement is implied for all distributions factorized according to the given graph. Both criteria are based on special types of path in graphs. They are called separation criteria because independence holds whenever the conditioning set is a separating set in a graph theoretical sense. We introduce and discuss an alternative approach using binary matrix representations of graphs in which zeros indicate independence statements. A matrix condition is shown to give a new path criterion for separation and to be equivalent to each of the previous two path criteria.

Subjects: Elena Pulcini; relational subject; Carol Gilligan; priority of the Self

description: Care of the Self, care of the other.

The identification between care and women is so deeply engraved in our imagination that it persists in our consciousness in spite of the radical transformations that have concerned the female subject over the last decades: care is what women give. This affirmation can be accepted on two conditions: the first is that care has to be rehabilitated and freed from the purely altruistic aspects that have always been identified with the female. In this sense, starting from the reflection of Carol Gilligan and the care theorists who propose the evaluation of female difference, one could say that the rehabilitation of care implies thinking of a relational subject: this allows us to overcome the opposition between the priority of the Self and priority of the other, because it combines autonomy and dependence, freedom and vulnerability. The second condition is to rescue care from the limited dimension of the private in order to involve the male subject, the public space and the global dimension. This implies considering the motivations and emotional sources of care (passion for the other). On this basis, one could assume that women are capable of transforming their traditional condition of subjected to care to act freely and voluntarily as subjects of care.

description: Sentences containing subjective predicates – e.g., “The movie was awesome” – are intuitively anchored to a particular perspective; this makes them different from sentences describing objective facts – e.g., “The movie was set in 1995”. While authors have long debated on whether this intuition tracks a lexical distinction between subjective and factual predicates, much remains to be explored on whether, and how, the difference between these two assertions is reflected at the illocutionary level. Relying on evidence from two experiments, we show that assertions containing subjective predicates display different discourse behavior from objective assertions. We take these findings to support the idea that SAs should be assigned a special illocutionary profile, unveiling a genuine empirical difference between subjective and factual speech. Keywords: subjectivity, discourse, assertion, Common Ground.

Equational-intensional relative clauses with syntactic representation

description: Analyses of scope reconstruction typically fall into two competing approaches: ‘semantic reconstruction’, which derives non-surface scope using semantic mechanisms, and ‘syntactic reconstruction’, which derives it by positing additional syntactic representations at the level of Logical Form. Grosu and Krifka (2007) proposed a semantic-reconstruction analysis for relative clauses like the gifted mathematician that Dan claims he is, in which the relative head NP can be interpreted in the scope of a lower intensional quantifier. Their analysis relies on type-shifting the relative head into a predicate of functions. We develop an alternative analysis for such relative clauses that replaces type-shifting with syntactic reconstruction. The competing analyses diverge in their predictions regarding scope possibilities in head-external relative clauses. We use Hebrew resumptive pronouns, which disambiguate a relative clause in favor of the head-external structure, to show that the prediction of syntactic reconstruction is correct. This result suggests that certain type-shifting operations are not made available by Universal Grammar. Keywords: relative clauses, scope, reconstruction, type-shifting, de dicto, intensional quantifiers, binding, resumptive pronouns.

description: Maschinelles Lernen stößt in der Umwelt-Domäne auf großes Interesse. Allerdings ist der Einsatz von entsprechenden Algorithmen in Umweltinformationssystemen (UIS) bisher nicht weit verbreitet. Eine offene Frage ist zum Beispiel wie von Umweltbehörden bestehende Informationssysteme mit seit Jahrzehnten aufgebauten und gepflegten Umweltdatenbanken in einem hierarchischen föderalem System weiterentwickelt und für den Einsatz von neuen Technologien fit gemacht werden können. Hierbei sind nicht nur technische Aspekte von Interesse, sondern vor allem auch die Entwicklung geeigneter Prozesse in der Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Behörden. Für die Industrie wurde mit dem ML4P Vorgehensmodell ein toolgestütztes Verfahren für die Einführung von maschinellem Lernen in der Produktion entwickelt. Dieser Artikel untersucht dieses Vorgehensmodell im Hinblick der Übertragbarkeit des Modells auf die Einführung von maschinellem Lernen in von Behörden betriebenen Umweltinformationssystemen.

description: We develop a new setting for the exponential principle in the context of multisort species, where indecomposable objects are generated intrinsically instead of being given in advance. Our approach uses the language of functors and natural transformations (composition operators), and we show that, somewhat surprisingly, a single axiom for the composition already suffices to guarantee validity of the exponential formula. We provide various illustrations of our theory, among which are applications to the enumeration of (semi-)magic squares.
description: 38 pages, AmS-LaTeX; seriously revised: the relation of this work with prior work of Mat\'i as Menni on an exponential principle in the framework of symmetric monoidal categories is clarified; a section on higher-dimensional magic cubes has been put into the separate paper "A note on higher-dimensional magic matrices"; journal version
Factors licensing embedded present tense in speech reports

description: According to Ogihara (1995), the usage of the embedded present in a speech report such as John said that Mary is in the room is restricted by the cause of John’s belief (the state that made John think that Mary is in the room): the present tense can be used only if this cause still holds at the time that John said that Mary is in the room is uttered. This paper presents experimental evidence demonstrating that this is only one of the factors that licenses a felicitous usage of the embedded present tense. In particular, we show that the cause of belief still holding is not a necessary condition, and identify two additional, sufficient (but not necessary) factors: in cases of false belief, who is aware of the falsity of the belief and duration of the reported state. While these factors are independent, they collectively support the idea that the present tense encodes ‘current relevance’, even in embedded contexts (e.g. Costa 1972; McGilvray 1974). This gives rise to the question of how we can derive ‘current relevance’ and, in particular, whether previous analyses of the embedded present tense are adequately equipped to do so. Keywords: tense, speech reports, double access, experiments.

description: In the realm of ‚Smart Manufacturing' the ‚SemNorm' Project addresses the question of how to at derive an executable Digital Twin (DT) from standards. A Digital Twin is a virtual representation that embodies an asset of any type {[}IOSB18{]}. In that sense a DT is compared to the Asset Administration Shell (AAS). Smart Manufacturing is a real thing of a factory represented by its structure and behavior of inter-connected things that generate real-time data {[}IOSB18{]}. By combining Smart Manufacturing processes with a Digital Twin it is intended to validate operations of a production systems in real-time. In general the properties of inter-operating things respectively systems, and especially the properties of energy transportation between systems are considered to be the ‚Prove of Concepts' (PoC) of semantics. When The Information Technology (IT) that processes data and up to some extend information, is compared to the technology that enables communication among things or objects then the technology is called Operation Technology (OT). Whereas the semantics of IT is straight-forward, namely the interpretation of data objects in different contexts of a sending and a receiving environment, the semantics of OT is achieved on two levels. The the first (informal) level explains semantics as a narrative of how things are processed in a smart manufacturing plant, whereas the second (formal) level defines semantics more formally, i.e. by means of graph manipulations. Graph Manipulations represent sequences of events that are related to the narrative of talking about inter-operations among things. At same time a graph is a computational representation in terms of sequences of events (so-called runs) that are executable by appropriate tools from the shelve. Thus graph computations and told narratives are said to be ‚similar', respectively ‚comparable' since they are related to each other by a morphism i.e. the formal relationship between artifacts of graphs, artifacts from the standard ontology and artifacts of the technical asset domain. The OT narration validated by a graph semantics analysis is finally to be transformed into a standard's document which is then called to be a Semantic Standard. This process is a backward transformation of interoperation properties from a semantic representation into an English text that describes the requirements of these properties. In a forward transformation it is started with the textual standards together with the derived guidelines to transform the standard into a semantic representation respectively a Digital Twin.
Focus constraints on ellipsis - an unalternatives account

description: This paper presents a new account of the generalization that focused elements cannot be elided, framed within Unalternative Semantics, a framework that does away with syntactic F-marking. We propose the mirror image of the generalization: what is elided cannot introduce alternatives. We implement this as a focus restriction in UAS and then go on to show how to account for MAXELIDE effects using the same technique, without making reference to any transderivational constraints. Keywords: focus, ellipsis, alternative semantics, unalternative semantics, MaxElide, secondary focus.

description: We present a study of the hard-core Bose-Hubbard model at zero temperature on an infinite square lattice using the infinite Projected Entangled Pair State algorithm [Jordan et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 250602 (2008)]. Throughout the whole phase diagram our values for the ground state energy, particle density and condensate fraction accurately reproduce those previously obtained by other methods. We also explore ground state entanglement, compute two-point correlators and conduct a fidelity-based analysis of the phase diagram. Furthermore, for illustrative purposes we simulate the response of the system when a perturbation is suddenly added to the Hamiltonian.

Roles and the compositional semantics of role-denoting relational adjectives
Creators: name: Anderson, Curt
name: Löbner, Sebastian
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2018

description: The semantics of adjectives related to nominals denoting societal roles, such as presidential (from president), have remained understudied. We examine the semantics of what we call role-denoting relational adjectives, providing a formal analysis using the notion of a frame, a unified representation for lexical knowledge, world knowledge, and context. The frames we propose are based on a constructivist philosophical understanding of social roles, leading us to posit a multi-tiered ontology of events and individuals. Using frames and our ontology, we provide a general semantics for role-denoting relational adjectives and roles. Keywords: modification, adjectives, relational adjectives, events, non-intersective adjectives, roles, natural language metaphysics, frame semantics.
