description: A basic arbitrariness in the determination of the topology of a manifold at the Planck length is discussed. An explicit example is given of a `smooth' change in topology from the 2-sphere to the 2-torus through a sequence of noncommuting geometries. Applications are considered to the theory of D-branes within the context of the proposed $M$(atrix) theory.

 Accepted name. Senna aversiflora (Herb.) H.S. Irwin & Barneby (1982: 529).
 Notes. Cassia aversiflora was described and illustrated by Herbert in Sims (1826: plate 2638), based on a collection of seeds from Brazil. No information was provided about the type material in the original description, and we did not find any other specimens that could represent the original material. As such, we are designating the illustration of Herbert in Botanical Magazine, plate 2638, as the lectotype. We also feel the need to designate an interpretive type, since the illustration provided by Herbert does not include the fruits (an important character for Senna aversiflora). We are therefore designating here the specimen deposited at the New York Herbarium (NY), under barcode NY 00582685, as the epitype, according to Art. 9.9 of ICNB (Turland et al. 2018).

description: I tested the effects of mastery of writing mathematical algorithms on the emergence of complex problem solving using a time-lagged multiple probe design across matched pairs of participants. In Experiment 1, 6 participants enrolled in third grade, ranging in age from 8 to 9 years, were selected because they were unable to write mathematical algorithms despite mathematical proficiency. The dependent variables were pre and post algorithm instruction probes consisting of verbally governing algorithm probes and abstraction to complex problems. Abstraction to complex problems was defined as solving untaught complex problems by applying taught algorithms. Verbally governing responses were defined as a functional algorithm on how to complete the mathematical problem. The independent variable was algorithm instruction which consisted of two teacher antecedent models for less complex problems, using an algorithm to complete the problem, then writing the algorithm, followed by learn units to the participants who served as writers. A peer-yoked contingency was implemented to teach the functionality of writing algorithms by providing an establishing operation for participants. The writer solved a mathematical problem and then wrote the algorithm on how to solve the problem. If, after one attempt, the reader solved the problem correctly, both participants moved up on the game board, however, if the reader was unable to solve the problem correctly, the experimenter moved up a space on the game board. In Experiment 2, the effects of the algorithm procedure were further tested with 4 new participants enrolled in second grade and ranging in age from 7 to 8 years. The differences between Experiment 1 and 2 were the age and grade level of the participants as well as the mathematical content taught. The mathematical content taught in Experiment 1 was fractions and multiplication and addition and fractions in Experiment 2. Results of the study show all participants acquired the capability to abstract more complex mathematical skills and write functional algorithms for mathematical problems solved. Participants' overall mathematical skills increased from skill levels prior to algorithm instruction. After serving as a writer, participants were able to abstract two more complex mathematical problems without receiving additional instruction.

description: This article provides a meta-analysis of the knowledge gap hypothesis literature published between 1966 and 2018. We find the basic assumption of a positive education-knowledge relationship to be supported. This result is robust across different geographical settings of the knowledge topics examined, independent of the country of data collection, and – in line with the belief gap hypothesis – restricted to (politically) uncontested topics. The central assumption of the hypothesis – that an increase of mass media information fosters knowledge divides between those with less and more formal education – was supported. While TV fulfils a role as a knowledge gap maintainer, print media and especially online media use appears to increase knowledge inequalities between groups with discrepant educational attainment.

description: We analyze stability of a system which contains an harmonic oscillator non-linearly coupled to its second harmonic, in the presence of a driving force. It is found that there always exists a critical amplitude of the driving force above which a loss of stability appears. The dependence of the critical input power on the physical parameters is analyzed. For a driving force with higher amplitude chaotic behavior is observed. Generalization to interactions which include higher modes is discussed. Keywords: Non-Linear Waves, Stability, Chaos.

description: The phenomenon of intrinsic localization in discrete nonlinear extended systems, i.e. the (generic) existence of discrete breathers, is shown to be not restricted to periodic solutions but it also extends to more complex (chaotic) dynamical behaviour. We illustrate this with two different forced and damped systems exhibiting this type of solutions: In an anisotropic Josephson junction ladder, we obtain intrinsically localized chaotic solutions by following periodic rotobreather solutions through a cascade of period-doubling bifurcations. In an array of forced and damped van der Pol oscillators, they are obtained by numerical continuation (path-following) methods from the uncoupled limit, where its existence is trivially ascertained, following the ideas of the anticontinuum limit.

description: Die Arbeit macht sich auf die Suche nach den Umrissen eines normativ fundierten Autokratiebegriffs. Begründet ist dieses Unterfangen mit der Beobachtung eines immanenten demokratischen Imperativs in den aktuellen Herrschaftskonzeptionen und Regimetypologien. Als Denkraum dient Niklas Luhmanns Theorie-Architektur der soziologischen Systemtheorie. Die Annahme ist, dass sich mit einer solchen Perspektive der Blick auf die Grundelemente des politischen Systems öffnen, die dann zu einer funktionalen Vernunft-Quelle führen um Autokratie neu zu definieren.
description: Based on the observation of an immanent democratic imperative in contemporary regime typologies and concepts, this work is in search for contours of a normative definition of autocracy. Niklas Luhmann's theoretical foundations serves as epistemological means to explore functional sources of Vernunft and to overcome metaphysical or natural justifications of order. The assumption is that such a perspective exposes fundamental elements of political systems and their systemic functions for a reformulation of autocracy.
Quantum Mechanics of a Point Particle in 2+1 Dimensional Gravity

description: We study the phase space structure and the quantization of a pointlike particle in 2+1 dimensional gravity. By adding boundary terms to the first order Einstein Hilbert action, and removing all redundant gauge degrees of freedom, we arrive at a reduced action for a gravitating particle in 2+1 dimensions, which is invariant under Lorentz transformations and a group of generalized translations. The momentum space of the particle turns out to be the group manifold SL(2). Its position coordinates have non-vanishing Poisson brackets, resulting in a non-commutative quantum spacetime. We use the representation theory of SL(2) to investigate its structure. We find a discretization of time, and some semi-discrete structure of space. An uncertainty relation forbids a fully localized particle. The quantum dynamics is described by a discretized Klein Gordon equation.

description: In this talk I review studies of hadron structure functions in bosonized chiral quark models. Such models require regularization and I show that the two--fold Pauli--Villars regularization scheme not only fully regularizes the effective action but also leads the scaling laws for structure functions. This scheme is consistent with other computations of the pion structure function in that model. For the nucleon structure functions the present approach serves to determine the regularization prescription for structure functions whose leading moments are not given by matrix elements of local operators. Some numerical results are presented for the spin structure functions and the role of strange quarks is addressed.

The Effects of Mastery of Editing Peers’ Written Math Algorithms on Producing Effective Problem Solving Algorithms

description: In 2 experiments, I tested the effects of a treatment package for teaching 4th graders to edit peers’ written algorithms for solving math problems such that an adult naïve reader could solve the problem. In Experiment 1, the editors were the target participants and the writers were the confederates. Participants were placed in a dyad that consisted of a writer and an editor. The writer and editor repeatedly interacted in writing until the writers produced an algorithm that resulted in adult naïve readers solving the problem. The editor was supplied with a checklist as a prompt for the editing process. Each dyad competed against a second pair of students, using a peer-yoked contingency game board as a motivating operation. Experiment 1 demonstrated that the treatment package increased participants’ accuracy of writing math algorithms, so that a naïve reader could solve the math problems. The target participants acquired the verbally governed responses through peer editing alone, and as a result the participants produced written math algorithms. Experiment 2 measured the behaviors of the editor and writer using a multiple probe design across participants with two groups of 4 writers and 4 editors. The dependent variables were: 1) production of previously mastered math problems, such that a naïve reader could read and solve the math problem without ever seeing the problem, 2) the emergence of explanations of “why” (function) from learning “how” to solve a multi-step math problem, 3) production of novel written math algorithms (i.e., find the perimeter and extended multiplication), and 4) cumulative number of untaught math problems attempted. The independent variable was the same as Experiment 1 except a) the editors did not have access to a checklist and b) the peer-yoked contingency game board was removed. The results demonstrated that all participants produced written math algorithms such that both the writers and editors affected the behavior of naïve readers. I discuss the emergence of explanations of the function (“why”) of math that occurred as a result of being able to explain “how” to solve problems. Moreover, the participants attempted more untaught math problems, demonstrating the resistance to extinction for attempting untaught math problems. Findings suggest that as a function of the intervention, reinforcement for solving math problems was enhanced.

description: The annihilation cross section of weakly interacting TeV scale dark matter particles $χ^0$ into photons is affected by large quantum corrections due to electroweak Sudakov logarithms and the Sommerfeld effect. We extend our previous work on the resummation of the semi-inclusive photon energy spectrum in $χ^0χ^0\to γ+X$ in the vicinity of the maximal photon energy $E_γ= m_χ$ with NLL' accuracy from the case of narrow photon energy resolution $E^γ_{\rm res}$ of order $m_W^2/m_χ$ to intermediate resolution of order $E^γ_{\rm res} \sim m_W$. We also provide details on the previous narrow resolution calculation. The two calculations, performed in different effective field theory set-ups for the wino dark matter model, are then shown to match well, providing an accurate representation up to energy resolutions of about 300 GeV.

The Effects of Mirror Instruction on the Emergence of Generalized Imitation of Physical Movements in 3-4 Years Olds with Autism
Creators: Du, Lin
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Special education

description: I tested the effects of teaching imitation using a mirror on the emergence of generalized imitation (GI) of physical movements by children with autism. I first tested if 128 adults, from 19 to 56 years old, emitted mirrored or non-mirrored responses in GI, because this had been a point of theoretical debate and little data were available. I found that typical adults emitted both mirrored and non-mirrored responses during the GI probe. Accordingly, topographically correct non-mirrored or mirrored responses were considered correct for Experiment Two. In the second experiment, using a combined experimental-control group design with a "nested" non-concurrent multiple probe design across participants, I compared a mirror-trained group (3 children, ages 3 to 4 years olds) and a non-mirror (face-to-face) trained group (3 children, ages 3 to 4 years olds), controlling for the amount of instruction and maturation. The dependent variable was the numbers of correct untaught imitative responses during face-to-face pre and post intervention probe sessions, and the independent variable was the mirror training. The results show that the mirror instruction facilitated in the emergence of GI in all 3 children with autism in the mirror-trained group: their controls that received the same amount of instruction face-to -face did not. I concluded that mirror training resulted in reinforcement of the duplication production and non-mirror training reinforced individual movements.

We emphasize the role which the Hopf algebra plays in renormalization by providing the forest formulas. We exhibit how the associated Lie algebra originates from an operadic operation of graph insertions. Particular emphasis is given to the connection with the Riemann--Hilbert problem. Finally, we outline how these structures relate to the numbers which we see in Feynman diagrams.

description: We provide an explicit expression for the strong magnetic field limit of the Heisenberg-Euler effective Lagrangian for both scalar and spinor quantum electrodynamics. To this end, we show that the strong magnetic field behavior is fully determined by one-particle reducible contributions discovered only recently. The latter can efficiently be constructed in an essentially algebraic procedure from lower-order one-particle reducible diagrams. Remarkably, the leading strong magnetic field behavior of the all-loop Heisenberg-Euler effective Lagrangian only requires input from the one-loop Lagrangian. Our result revises previous findings based exclusively on one-particle irreducible contributions. In addition we briefly discuss the strong electric field limit and comment on external field QED in the large $N$ limit.

The Effects of Observation of Learn Units During Reinforcement and Correction Conditions on the Rate of Learning Math Algorithms by Fifth Grade Students

description: I conducted two studies on the comparative effects of the observation of learn units during (a) reinforcement or (b) correction conditions on the acquisition of math objectives. The dependent variables were the within-session cumulative numbers of correct responses emitted during observational sessions. The independent variables were the observation of reinforcement for correct responses as the control condition and the observation of corrections for incorrect responses. Eight 11-year-old target participants, 3 females and 5 males, were selected to participate in Experiment 1, during which a counterbalanced simultaneous treatment across participants design was used. Target participants and non-target peers were presented with math objectives that were not in repertoire. The non-target peers received feedback in the form of either reinforcement or a correction in 2 separate conditions while target students observed and received no feedback. Results from Experiment 1 showed that all of the target participants mastered the 3 math objectives presented during the observation of the correction condition and 7 of the 8 target participants mastered the objective during the reinforcement condition. Target participants met criterion with significantly fewer numbers of observing opportunities during the correction condition than during the reinforcement condition. Experiment 2 was a replication of Experiment 1 with greater experimental control. Six target participants, 4 females and 2 males, 10-year-olds, were selected to participate in Experiment 2, in which a between subjects counterbalanced reversal design across conditions and math objectives was implemented. Results showed that all target participants mastered 18 out of 18 math objectives presented during the correction condition and target participants mastered 10 out of 18 objectives presented during the reinforcement condition.

 Notes. Cassia lindleyana was described based on the collection Gardner 367 from Brazil, but the only information contained in the original description for typification purposes is plants from the “Organ Mountains, hab. in woods, common”. Bentham (1870: 123) considered C. lindleyana a variety of C. multijuga based on the collection Gardner 367. Irwin & Barneby (1982: 498) changed the status of C. multijuga var. lindleyana to the subspecies level, and mistakenly indicated the specimen of the collection Gardner 367 as the holotype, under barcode K000555411, deposited at the Kew Herbarium (K). The species protologue, however, does not indicate where the holotype was deposited, and there is no indication that the specimen suggested by those authors was the material used by Gardner.
 We found nine specimens from the collection Gardner 367 from Brazil, and designate here the specimen deposited at K, under barcode K000555411 as the lectotype as it is well preserved, and also because (according to Thiers 2021) the Kew Herbarium houses Gardner’s main collections.

description: The purpose of this study was to determine how the study of number theory might affect high school students' metacognitive functioning, mathematical curiosity, and/or attitudes towards mathematics.
      The study utilized questionnaire and/or interview responses of seven high school students from New York City and 33 high school students from Dalian, China. The questionnaire components served to measure and compare the students' metacognitive functioning, mathematical curiosity, and mathematics attitudes before and after they worked on a number theory problem set included with the questionnaire. Interviews with 13 of these students also helped to reveal any changes in their metacognitive tendencies and/or mathematics attitudes or curiosity levels after the students had worked on said number theory problems.
      The investigator sought to involve very motivated as well as less motivated mathematics students in the study. The participation of a large group of Chinese students enabled the investigator to obtain a diverse set of data elements, and also added an international flavor to the research.
      All but one of the 40 participating students described or presented some evidence of metacognitive enhancement, greater mathematical curiosity, and/or improved attitudes towards mathematics after the students had worked on the assigned number theory problems. The results of the study thus have important implications for the value of number theory coursework by high school students, with respect to the students' metacognitive processes as well as their feelings about mathematics as an academic discipline.

description: We examine spin vortices in ferromagnetic quantum Heisenberg models with planar anisotropy on two-dimensional lattices. The symmetry properties and the time evolution of vortices built up from spin-coherent states are studied in detail. Although these states show a dispersion typical for wave packets, important features of classical vortices are conserved. Moreover, the results on symmetry properties provide a construction scheme for vortex-like excitations from exact eigenstates, which have a well-controlled time evolution. Our approach works for arbitrary spin length both on triangular and square lattices.

description: With the increasing computations in power system simulations, high-performance and cost-effective power system simulator is highly required. In this paper, a cloud-computing based power system simulator, namely CloudPSS, is designed. Based on an open service integrating framework, a self-developed electromagnetic transients (EMT) simulator with an automatic code generator is provided to accelerate EMT simulations using heterogeneous devices in the cloud, such as CPU and GPU. Test results show that CloudPSS can achieve significant speedups for both large-scale simulation tasks and multi-scenario tasks. Moreover, benefit from the time-sharing of cloud computing resources, the computational cost can be greatly reduced.

description: 7. Cassia mutisiana Kunth, Mimoses 142, pl. 43. 1824.
 Type:— COLOMBIA. Nova Granada, Mutis s.n (holotype: B†, propably destroyed, photo negative F-1713 [image!]; lectotype designated here: P barcode P00679251 [image!]; isolectotype: P barcode P00798386 [image!]). Lectotype available at: http://mediaphoto.mnhn. fr/media/14448637526653aeQ2towMgxVHqKU
 Accepted name. Senna mutisiana (Kunth) H.S. Irwin & Barneby (1982: 512).
 Notes. The Kunth collection was acquired by the Berlin Herbarium (B) in about 1830, when he took over as deputy director of the Berlin Botanical Garden. The collection included approximately 70,000 specimens and 3,000 types (Hiepko 1987). The holotype of Cassia mutisiana was deposited at B, and was probably destroyed during World War II. It is available, however, in the negatives collection of the Field Museum (F) under number F-1713, and clearly shows clearly the “Typus” indication. Our searches found three additional specimens of the collection Mutis s.n., two at the Paris Herbarium (P), and one at the Smithsonian Herbarium (US). After analyzing the specimens, we observed that those at P have determination on their labels in Kunth’s handwriting. The specimens of Cassia mutisiana from the Humbold and Bompland Herbarium are now deposited at P; they are well preserved and we are designating here the specimen under barcode P00679251 as the lectotype. That specimen is complete, with leaves, flowers and fruits (unlike the specimen under barcode P00798386, which has only fruits). The specimen deposited at US belongs to the collection Mutis 4214 (under barcode 00001491) but does not have Kunth’s handwriting, and probably belongs to another collection.

Tunable and robust long-range coherent interactions between quantum emitters mediated by Weyl bound states

description: Long-range coherent interactions between quantum emitters are instrumental for quantum information and simulation technologies, but they are generally difficult to isolate from dissipation. Here, we show how such interactions can be obtained in photonic Weyl environments due to the emergence of an exotic bound state whose wavefunction displays power-law spatial confinement. Using an exact formalism, we show how this bound state can mediate coherent transfer of excitations between emitters, with virtually no dissipation and with a transfer rate that follows the same scaling with distance as the bound state wavefunction. In addition, we show that the topological nature of Weyl points translates into two important features of the Weyl bound state, and consequently of the interactions it mediates: first, its range can be tuned without losing the power-law confinement, and, second, they are robust under energy disorder of the bath. To our knowledge, this is the first proposal of a photonic setup that combines simultaneously coherence, tunability, long-range, and robustness to disorder. These findings could ultimately pave the way for the design of more robust long-distance entanglement protocols or quantum simulation implementations for studying long-range interacting systems.

Cassia semifalcata

description: 9. Cassia semifalcata Vell., Fl. Flumin. T 4: 167. 1829.
Type:—“Habitat silvis maritimis” (lectotype designated here: tab. 68, T. 4 [illustration], in Fl. Flumin. T.4. 1831[“1827”]). Lectotype available at: https://digital.bbm.usp.br/view/?45000009111&bbm/4266#page/70/mode/2up
 Accepted name. Senna multijuga subsp. lindleyana (Gardner) H.S. Irwin & Barneby (1982: 498).
 Notes. Cassia semifalcata was proposed as a new species by Vellozo (1829: 167) without any indication of the holotype. As such, and following the recommendations of articles 9.11 and 9.12 of the ICNB (Turland et al. 2018), we are designating the illustration presented by Vellozo tab. 68, in Fl. Flumin., T. 4, 1831[“1827”]) as the lectotype of Cassia semifalcata, as that illustration contemplates all of the characters presented in the protologue, no type material was referred to in the original description, and no specimen used by Vellozo has been located.

description: Uganda, like many other nations vulnerable to climate change, has undertaken various legal and policy initiatives aimed at mitigating its adverse effects. This paper examines the legal framework mitigating climate change in Uganda, analyzing its implications for the country's broader transition initiatives toward sustainable and low-carbon development. In recent years, Uganda has enacted key laws and policies such as the National Climate Change Act (2021), the National Environment Act (2019), and the Renewable Energy Policy, which collectively aim to enhance climate resilience, promote environmental justice, and align with international climate obligations such as the Paris Agreement. However, questions remain about the effectiveness, accessibility, and enforcement of these legal instruments. Drawing parallels with other contexts such as Kenya, where environmental defenders face significant threats despite an elaborate legal framework, this paper explores whether Uganda’s legal and policy tools are sufficiently robust to protect communities, promote climate justice, and guide a just transition. Challenges such as limited institutional capacity, weak enforcement mechanisms, and low public awareness of climate-related rights and duties are discussed. The paper concludes with practical recommendations for strengthening Uganda’s legal framework to ensure inclusive, participatory, and effective climate action that leaves no one behind.
Dissipation and acoustic tunnelling about the sonic horizon of Bondi accretion

description: Viscous dissipation, as a small perturbative effect about the Bondi flow, shrinks its sonic sphere. An Eulerian perturbation on the steady flow gives a wave equation and the corresponding dispersion relation. The perturbation is a high-frequency travelling acoustic wave, in which small dissipation is taken iteratively. The wave, propagating radially outwards against the bulk inflow, is blocked just within the sonic horizon, where the amplitude of the wave diverges because of viscosity. The blocked acoustic wave can still tunnel outward through the horizon with a viscosity-dependent decaying amplitude, scaled by the analogue Hawking temperature. The escape of acoustic waves (analogue Hawking phonons) through the sonic horizon is compatible with the radial contraction of the sonic sphere.

description: The New Zealand government introduced a Primary Health Care Strategy (PHCS) in 2001 aimed at improving access to primary health care, improving health, and reducing inequalities in health. The Strategy represented a substantive increase in health funding by government and a move from a targeted to a universal funding model. This paper uses representative national survey data to examine the distribution of fees paid for primary health care by different individuals under the mixed public-private financing model in place prior to the introduction of PHCS. Using multivariate regression analysis, we find that fees do vary, with people who might be expected to have greater needs paying less. However, apart from people with diabetes, there is no direct link between self-reported health status and fees paid. The findings indicate that a mixed public-private financing model can result in a fee structure which recognises differences across different population groups. The findings also provide a baseline against which changes in funding brought about by the PHCS can be evaluated.
