Propósito de sistematización del complejo verbal en la lengua Quiché
Creators: name: Smailus, Ortwin
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: El "arte de las tres lenguas" de Francisco Ximénez (1720) es una descripción del idioma quiché colonial que hasta ahora (Edmonson 1967) sobrepasa todas obras escritas sobre el sistema gramatical de esta lengua. La base teórica que tenía Francisco Ximénez y la forma en la cual presenta su material hacen necesario una reorganización y reinterpretación para sacar una descripción gramatical a nivel de la lingüística moderna. En este artículo se trata de exponer los datos que tiene Ximénez sobre la morfología verbal en forma de un organograma que demuestra formas, categorías y procesos de aglutinación. En este sistema, que se ve muy productivo y muy regular, se encuentran cuatro grupos de raíces y cinco categorías de derivación para producir formas verbales (transitivas e intransitivas), participiales y nominales. Las reglas de transición de una categoría a otra son muy estrictas y se orientan en el status de transitividad.

description: It is typically believed that the additional degrees of freedom in any modification of gravity are completely suppressed by the large energy densities coexisting with an astrophysical black hole. In this paper, we find that this might not always be the case. This belief holds for black holes formed via gravitational collapse in very dense environments, whereas the black holes with sufficiently low accretion rates that have low matter densities inside innermost stable circular orbit will generally unscreen chameleons. We develop a novel technique to study the dynamics of accretion of a scalar field onto a Schwarzschild-like black hole which is accurate on both short and long time scales. In particular, we study the behavior of the extra scalar degree of freedom in the Starobinsky and Hu-Sawicki $f(R)$ theories, for the symmetron model, and for the Ratra-Peebles model. Aside from calculating non-trivial static field profiles outside the black hole, we provide the tools to study the (in)stability and evolution towards the equilibrium solution for any generic well behaved set of parameters and initial conditions. Our code is made publicly available for further research and modifications to study other models.

description: The aim of the current work is the numerical research of the anisotropic characteristics of the two-dimensional hydrogen atom induced by a magnetic field. The ground state energy (GSE) of the two-dimensional hydrogen atom and the corresponding wave function have been numerically calculated in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and with taking into account the finite mass of the proton. The non-linear dependence of GSE on the angle α between the magnetic field vector and the normal to the plane of electron motion in a wide range of magnetic field strength has been found. The effect of a significant reduction of GSE (up to 1.9-fold) is observed with increasing the angle α up to 90 degrees.

description: We provide a fundamental insight into the microscopic mechanisms of the ageing processes. Using large scale molecular dynamics simulations of the prototypical ferroelectric material PbTiO3, we demonstrate that the experimentally observed ageing phenomena can be reproduced from intrinsic interactions of defect-dipoles related to dopant-vacancy associates, even in the absence of extrinsic effects. We show that variation of the dopant concentration modifies the material's hysteretic response. We identify a universal method to reduce loss and tune the electromechanical properties of inexpensive ceramics for efficient technologies.

description: We formulate a Euclidean theory of edge length dynamics based on a notion of Ricci curvature on graphs with variable edge lengths. In order to write an explicit form for the discrete analog of the Einstein-Hilbert action, we require that the graph should either be a tree or that all its cycles should be sufficiently long. The infinite regular tree with all edge lengths equal is an example of a graph with constant negative curvature, providing a connection with $p$-adic AdS/CFT, where such a tree takes the place of anti-de Sitter space. We compute simple correlators of the operator holographically dual to edge length fluctuations. This operator has dimension equal to the dimension of the boundary, and it has some features in common with the stress tensor.

description: El muu ikala es un canto, recitado por el curandero durante un parto difícil. En este trabajo se tratará de dar una nueva interpretación al muu ikala. En la que los nelekan, o sea los espíritus auxiliares del curandero, no penetran el cuerpo de la preñada como lo creían Holmer, Wassén y más tarde Levi- Strauss, sino que éstos se dirigen más bien hacia un viaje al más allá en el interior de la tierra. Muu, - en su búsqueda se inicia el viaje al más allá — no es, por lo tanto, un ánima uterina, sino que habita el interior terrestre. Aquí crea ella a los animales y da forma al feto humano. Muu es la Señora de los peces y animales marítimos, probablemente: la Señora de todo animal en general.

description: Tomando como ejemplo al caracol terrestre se intenta demostrar la posibilidad de reconstrucción de la imagen de la naturaleza y de la sociedad moche tomando como base las representaciones de los objetos encontrados. Para ello partimos del presupuesto de que la percepción moche de la naturaleza debe haber tenido cierta constancia e invariabilidad. Contemplamos el "significado" de cada objeto como la totalidad de asociaciones que existen respecto a él. La aplicación de las reglas de asociación de los elementos derivados de las escenas permite conformar un conjunto coherente de la totalidad de los elementos y de las escenas. Este conjunto coherente será más fácilmente interpretable que las partes en sí.

description: En 1589, Ph. Galle publica una serie de grabados, cuyos dibujos se deben a Joannes Stradanus. Dedicados al descubrimiento de América ensalzan a Vespucci. El homenaje a Florencia sirve los intereses coloniales de los Médicis. El vocabulario del triunfo náutico (leones, elefante) proyecta sobre las "Indias". Occidentales la imagen mítica de la India conquistada por Baco. El viaje de Vespucci vence distancias que parecían insuperables: Aquiles ha alcanzado la tortuga, inalcanzable para siempre según el teorema de Zenón. En esta retórica, nutrida en el optimismo del descubrimiento, se formula cuando las esperanzas puestas en el Nuevo Mundo ya cedieron a una sensación de vanitas, como bien muestra el emblema de Abraham de Bruyn de 1581.

description: We present a new approach to the following meta-problem: given a quantitative property of trees, design a type system such that the desired property for the tree generated by an infinitary ground lambda-term corresponds to some property of a derivation of a type for this lambda-term, in this type system. Our approach is presented in the particular case of the language finiteness problem for nondeterministic higher-order recursion schemes (HORSes): given a nondeterministic HORS, decide whether the set of all finite trees generated by this HORS is finite. We give a type system such that the HORS can generate a tree of an arbitrarily large finite size if and only if in the type system we can obtain derivations that are arbitrarily large, in an appropriate sense; the latter condition can be easily decided.

A multiwavelength analysis revealing high variability in the compact protoplanetary disk CX Tau
Creators: name: Curone, Pietro
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: High-resolution sub-mm and mm observations from ALMA mainly focused on the brightest and most extended protoplanetary disks. However, such disks constitute the exception in the population. The average disk is indeed compact and fainter. CX Tau represents the archetype of a typical protoplanetary disk, due to its small size and average mm flux. Previous high-resolution ALMA observations of this source at 1.3 mm revealed a smooth compact dust disk. In our work, we investigate the nature of CX Tau through a multiwavelength approach. Combining VLA observations with archival data from ALMA and other interferometers, we obtained the spectral flux density distribution of CX Tau at millimeter and centimeter wavelengths. Interestingly, deep observations at 6 cm (where free-free emission is expected to dominate) do not detect the source, whereas at 1.3 cm the flux density is anomalously high with respect to adjacent bands. To explain this behavior, we propose high variability of the free-free emission even at monthly timescales. Moreover, we derived an upper limit of the dust size at 1.3 cm, which, combined with the dust radius measured by ALMA at 0.9 and 1.3 mm, is consistent with theoretical predictions of a radial drift-dominated disk, suggesting that substructures, if present, do not have a strong impact on the dust evolution in this disk. Such a multiwavelength view of CX Tau allows us to inspect different physical mechanisms regulating its disk, providing fundamental constraints for the evolution of compact disks in general and for their capability to form planets.
Sprachhistorische Untersuchung zur Stellung des Haida
Creators: name: Pinnow, Jürgen
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: The present paper, in its essential parts, dates from as early as 1978. It represents the first of a series of studies to show how the ingenious Edward Sapir, concerning the much disputed Na-Dene hypothesis, not only correctly classified Tlingit— which now implicitly is accepted even by his critics – but also leaded the right way in the much more complicated case of Haida. On the other hand, the crushing criticism chiefly by R. Levine on Sapir, Hymes, and Pinnow, reveals itself to be substantially as well as methodically vastly wrong. Most of the etymologies given by Sapir and/or Pinnow are defensable, new ones could be added. Ostensible separating features can no longer be regarded as such, e. g., s- and ł - as first members in initial consonant clusters — according to Krauss and Levine they are not even fossilized prefixes — can clearly be isolated as prefixes (comparable with Tlingit s-, c-, ł etc.) in a great number of items, e. g. HS q'a "harpoon", HK sq'a= "stick, e t c . " , HK łq'a= "many-pointed object" (PA *q'a' "arrow"); HS gal "night", łgał "black"; HK gáy "blood", sgit "to be red", HM geed "to be ashamed" etc. — The morphology of the noun, principle concern of the present paper, shows many parallels to Tlingit-Eyak-Athapaskan. The much more evidential morphology of the verb, together with numerous new etymologies, shall be published at a later date (Das Haida als Na-Dene-Sprache, Komparative Untersuchung über das Verbum, Ms, 300 pp.). Thus, in the light of these new materials, fundamental elements of Haida in phonemics, morphology and vocabulary prove themselves to be genetically related to Tlingit-Eyak-Athapaskan.

Sonnenbeobachtungen und Agrarkalender in Mesoamerika
Creators: name: Tichy, Franz
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: El cultivo del campo suele depender en Mesoamérica de determinadas fechas y muchas veces coincide con ritos agrarios; por ejemplo, la fiesta de la Sagrada Cruz, el 2 y 3 de mayo, es la fecha que da comienzo al trabajo en el campo. Se podría pensar que se trata de restos de antiguos calendarios agrícolas que se relacionaban con el curso anual del sol. Girard describe un calendario de los Chortíes de 260 días en sitios a 15 grados de latitud. De esto se deduce que también en la época precolombina existían calendarios para la vida práctica que concordaban con las estaciones del sol y que se controlaban permanentemente. El ciclo empieza el 10 de febrero, termina el 27 de octubre y está dividido por el solsticio estival. Períodos parciales de 36, 40 y 52 días de duración están delimitados por el solsticio, los equinoccios y los días del paso del sol por el cénit. Dentro de Mesoamérica se pueden construir en sitios a 18 y 19 grados de latitud calendarios agrícolas semejantes a respectivos períodos parciales. A 19 grados de latitud están ubicadas entre otros sitios Cholula y Xochicalco. Las posiciones del sol en el horizonte representan otros puntos de partida astronómicos para el principio y el fin del ciclo (13,5 grados Este-Sur) y para períodos parciales (7 grados Oeste-Norte), aparte de los equinoccios, el solsticio y los días en los cuales, según los diferentes grados de latitud, el sol está en el cenit. Estas observaciones, pero sobre todo la observación de la posición cenital como, por ejemplo, en Xochicalco, pueden haber ayudado a controlar y rectificar repetidamente el calendario.

description: We present the VLA-COSMOS 3 GHz Large Project based on 384 hours of observations with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) at 3 GHz (10 cm) toward the two square degree Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) field. The final mosaic reaches a median rms of 2.3 uJy/beam over the two square degrees at an angular resolution of 0.75". To fully account for the spectral shape and resolution variations across the broad (2 GHz) band, we image all data with a multiscale, multifrequency synthesis algorithm. We present a catalog of 10,830 radio sources down to 5 sigma, out of which 67 are combined from multiple components. Comparing the positions of our 3 GHz sources with those from the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA)-COSMOS survey, we estimate that the astrometry is accurate to 0.01" at the bright end (signal-to-noise ratio, S/N_3GHz > 20). Survival analysis on our data combined with the VLA-COSMOS 1.4~GHz Joint Project catalog yields an expected median radio spectral index of alpha=-0.7. We compute completeness corrections via Monte Carlo simulations to derive the corrected 3 GHz source counts. Our counts are in agreement with previously derived 3 GHz counts based on single-pointing (0.087 square degrees) VLA data. In summary, the VLA-COSMOS 3 GHz Large Project simultaneously provides the largest and deepest radio continuum survey at high (0.75") angular resolution to date, bridging the gap between last-generation and next-generation surveys.

description: Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity is a theoretically well-motivated alternative theory of gravity emerging as a low-energy 4-dimensional model from heterotic string theory. Its rotating black hole solutions are known numerically and can have macroscopic deviations from the Kerr black holes of Einstein's gravity. Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity can thus be tested with observations of astrophysical black holes. In the present paper, we simulate observations of the reflection spectrum of thin accretion disks with present and future X-ray facilities to understand whether X-ray reflection spectroscopy can distinguish the black holes in Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity from those in Einstein's gravity. We find that this is definitively out of reach for present X-ray missions, but it may be achieved with the next generation of facilities.

Fray Diego Durán and the Localistic Orientation of his "Historia"
Creators: name: Colston, Stephen A.
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: El dominico Diego Durán escribió una crónica sobre la historia y el sistema ritual religioso de los mexicas la cual ocupa un lugar de importancia secundaria solamente después de las obras de su contemporáneo franciscano, Bernardino de Sahagún. El Codex Durán comprende tres tratados separados: el "Calendario Antiguo", el "Libro de los Ritos" y la "Historia". La "Historia" fue el último tratado que se completó y está basada en una crónica nahuatl ahora perdida la cual Durán llamó "historia mexicana". Mientras que Durán deseaba escribir una historia bastante extensa de varias de las ciudades estados anteriores a la conquista, la extensión de su cubrimiento histórico fue restringida en general a su fuente principal, o sea, la historia de México Tenochtitlan. Se ofrecen varias razones del por qué de la rígida adhesión de Fray Diego hacia esta etnocéntrica crónica nahuatl. Una de estas razones es que la "historia mexicana", como fuente histórica detallada y de confianza, pudo haber facilitado su labor de recopilación de una historia anterior a la Conquista. Las otras razones son de naturaleza doctrinal, y, probablemente, explican su confianza en la "historia mexicana": a) c o m o fuente que exalta los logros de los mexicas, pudo haberle servido para ilustrar la benevolencia natural de los indios; b) c o m o fuente que documenta el cuerpo político tan bien ordenado de los mexicas, pudo haberle ayudado a demostrar su racionalidad; y c) como fuente crónica de muchos de estos sucesos que el creía habían dado forma a las creencias religiosas de los indios, pudo haberle podido proporcionar los datos necesarios para componer una introducción a un contexto histórico para el "Calendario Antiguo" y el "Libro de los Ritos", tratados que él pensaba servirían juntos c o m o una especie de "manual de c a m p o " para sus compañeros frailes para profundizar sus esfuerzos proselitistas.

Wildlife Habitat Loss and Land Cover Change as Conservation Threat in Alatish National Park, Northwestern Ethiopia

description: The ecosystem of the Alatish National Park is an Ecotone between the Afromontane Region in Ethiopia and the Sudan-Guinea Savanna Region of Tropical Biome. The biological attribute of the park where the country opt to manage the resource sustainably are thought to be unique. However, the sustainability of its biological resources has faced profound threats. The aim of this study was to identify the threats of habitat loss and evaluate their effect on land cover change in the park. The result showed that fire induced by humans was the major threat of habitat loss. The nomads who intruded into the park from the Sudan side were not easily controlled by the Park scouts. The land cover change analysis revealed that woodland habitat of the Park was altered significantly. The land cover of the Park in 1999 showed that deciduous type of woodland was 46.55%, but it was reduced to 19.8% in 2013. On the contrary, wooded grassland habitat was increased from 35.4% to 64.5% of the land cover in 1999 and 2013, respectively. This indicates that threats of habitat loss remain unsolved after the establishment of Park. Therefore, urgent interventions by the federal government and international conservation foundations should be mandated to support the management effectiveness of the park office. These would enable the park office to control major conservation threats through the Ethio-Sudan Transboundary National Park collaboration and implementation of management strategies.

The Ethnic History of the Toltecs as Reflected in their Clothing

description: Guiado por el interés en señalar la importancia que el análisis de las vestimentas tiene para la reconstrucción cultural, este artículo considera la historia étnica de los toltecas a través de un examen de sus prendas de vestir. Para este propósito se ha establecido la hipótesis que la historia y las relaciones sociales de un pueblo pueden ser reconstruidas gracias a determinadas características en sus vestimentas. La investigación se ha centrado en el xicolli. Resulta que este traje típico experimentó una cierta transformación desde el clásico y postclásico temprano yucateco, donde constituía una prenda de guerra, hasta su uso c o m o traje ritual y distintivo de la clase alta en el postclásico tardío de la región central de México. Este cambio parece haberse originado en la región huasteca, concretamente en el área desde el cual los nonoalcas, representantes de la antigua tradición teotihuacana, emprendieron la migración hacia Tollan. La ausencia del traje característico de los nonoalcas en los testimonios arqueológicos toltecas, permite suponer que una fracción militar tolteca subyugó el segmento intelectual-religioso de Tollan.

description: We study the controlled manipulation of the Jahn-Teller metal state of fulleride compounds using nonequilibrium dynamical mean field theory. This anomalous metallic state is a spontaneous orbital-selective Mott phase, which is characterized by one metallic and two insulating orbitals. Using protocols based on transiently reduced hopping amplitudes or periodic electric fields, we demonstrate the possibility to switch orbitals between Mott insulating and metallic on a sub-picosecond timescale, and to rotate the order parameter between three equivalent states that can be distinguished by their anisotropic conductance. The Jahn-Teller metal phase of alkali-doped fullerides thus provides a promising platform for ultrafast persistent memory devices.

Pratique divinatoire et cycle liturgique chez les anciens Mexicains

description: La adivinación y sus innumerables prácticas, verdadera obsesión de la Mesoamérica, influenciaba cada instante de la vida del individuo y del grupo. Incumbía al Tonalpouhqui la consultación y la interpretación del Tonalamatl (Libro del destino). Pronosticaba el futuro, considerando varios criterios, tales c o m o la suerte del signo del día, y la del numeral que le acompañaba, y de las series de dioses protectores. Además, el número importante de "variables" del cual disponía el Tonalpouhqui, le impedía equivocarse seriamente en la interpretación de los acontecimientos, a partir de sus libros. El rol de dueños del destino, conferido a los dioses por los teólogos, difería del que estas mismas deidades desempeñaban en el ciclo litúrgico. Entre las 18 fiestas anuales 11 eran dedicadas a los dioses de la tierra y del agua, 4 a los dioses astrales y 3 a los dioses del fuego y de la caza, los cuales actuaban c o m o los intermediarios de las dos categorías de deidades. Como ejemplo se analizan dos fiestas a la vez generales y corporativas, la fiesta de Ochpaniztli y la de Panquetzaliztli así como la de Atamalcualiztli, celebrada cada ocho años. Muy a menudo aparecen discrepancias entre un Codex y otro, como entre las descripciones escritas en nahuatl y en español que reflejan, sin duda, tradiciones locales diferentes y privilegian tal aspecto o tal atributo de la deidad, o tal vez momentos particulares de la ceremonia.

description: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has created a knowledge gap between the Northern and the Southern hemispheres which is very marked for white dwarfs: only $\simeq 15$% of the known white dwarfs are south of the equator. Here we make use of the VST ATLAS survey, one of the first surveys obtaining deep, optical, multi-band photometry over a large area of the southern skies, to remedy this situation. Applying the colour and proper-motion selection developed in Gentile Fusillo et al. (2015a) to the most recent internal data release (2016 April 25) of VST ATLAS we created a catalogue of $\simeq 4200$ moderately bright ($g\leq19$), high-confidence southern white dwarf candidates, which can be followed up individually with both the large array of southern telescopes or in bulk with forthcoming multi-object spectrographs.

Los cien días: La aristocracia criolla y la independencia
Creators: name: Semo, Enrique
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: En México, la lucha por la independencia empezó como pugna en el seno de las clases dominantes, la oligarquía peninsular–burocracia virreinal, alto clero y grandes comerciantes—organizada en la Audiencia y el Consulado, y la aristocracia criolla – terratenientes y dueños de minas — cuyo instrumento de poder era el Cabildo. Provocó la hostilidad de las clases dominantes, aunque favoreció a los grandes comerciantes españoles, únicos capaces de adquirir las tierras desamortizadas, el decreto de consolidación para la venta de bienes pertenecientes a Obras Pías de diciembre de 1804, que obligó a remitir buena parte de los capitales novohispanos–40 a 50 millones de pesos — a la Metrópoli. La pugna se desarrolló entre junio de 1805 — fecha de la llegada de las noticias de la caída de Carlos IV y su favorito Godoy, primero, y de la abdicación de Fernando VII, después — y septiembre de 1805. El Cabildo logró que el Virrey José de Iturrigaray se pusiese de su lado en el proyecto de una Junta de Congreso de todas las autoridades de la Nueva España. Se opuso al proyecto la Audiencia. Como resultado, los peninsulares se armaron. Decidió la lucha el regimiento de Infantería, única tropa que guarneció la capital, costeado por el Consulado, que el 15 de septiembre arrestó al virrey y a su familia. Así, la lucha por la independencia en su primera fase culminó con la victoria de la reacción.

description: Hill and Kertz studied the prophet inequality on iid distributions [The Annals of Probability 1982]. They proved a theoretical bound of $1-\frac{1}{e}$ on the approximation factor of their algorithm. They conjectured that the best approximation factor for arbitrarily large n is $\frac{1}{1+1/e} \approx 0.731$. This conjecture remained open prior to this paper for over 30 years. In this paper we present a threshold-based algorithm for the prophet inequality with n iid distributions. Using a nontrivial and novel approach we show that our algorithm is a 0.738-approximation algorithm. By beating the bound of $\frac{1}{1+1/e}$, this refutes the conjecture of Hill and Kertz. Moreover, we generalize our results to non-iid distributions and discuss its applications in mechanism design.

description: The study was conducted to assess the awareness and perception of local farmers with the causative factors of environmental degradation and to analyze the interactions of natural resources, rural livelihoods and armed conflict in North Darfur State. Six localities: El Fasher, Maleit, Malha, Kabkabia, Darsalam, and Omkadada were selected as study field using stratified random sampling method. A total of 300 interviewees were randomly selected for the household survey adopting semi-structured interviews. Questionnaires were used to collect socioeconomic characteristics. Key informants’ interviews and group discussions were also used to obtain additional information. The results revealed that great changes have been taken place in quantity and quality of natural vegetation towards negative trends according to respondents’ views. Majority of interviewees agree that the disappeared vegetation types were more palatable to livestock. About 88% of interviewees are farmers and agro-pastoralists, where their main food crops are millet and sorghum. While the cash crops are represented in groundnuts, water melons, and tobacco. However, during last decades the crop production was kept decreasing pattern due to climatic and anthropogenic factors spreading food insecurity. The impacts of ecosystem resource diminishing and armed conflict on each other and their effects on livelihoods became clear and recognizable by the local people. The community perception of ecosystem degradation in the area could be used to set strategies for conservation and rational use of natural resources. The study recommends for further investigation about the impacts of natural resource degradation on livelihood and plant productivity in the region.

description: Having no any explanations the radiation of high-frequency components of the pulsar in the Crab Nebula can be a manifestation of instability in the nonlinear reflection from the neutron star surface. Reflected radiation it is the radiation of relativistic positrons flying from the magnetosphere to the star and accelerated by the electric field of the polar gap. The discussed instability it is a stimulated scattering by surface waves, predicted more than forty years ago and still nowhere and by no one had been observed.

The Convergence of Humanistic and Scientific Approaches in Maya Archaeology
Creators: name: Willey, Gordon
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 1985

description: Las investigaciones sobre la arqueología maya tradicionalmente iban desarrollándose a través de estudios 'humanísticos' del arte, la arquitectura, la escritura jeroglífica y del Sistema calendárico. En las décadas recientes, sin embargo, tendieron a dominar este campo aproximaciones 'científicas', como lo son los estudios de patrones de población, evaluaciones demográficas, análisis de subsistencia y similares. Aquí sostenemos la tesis de que entre criterios 'humanísticos' y 'científicos' no necesariamente ha de darse una dicotomía y que los dos no entran en conflicto. Las investigaciones mayas recientes más bien demostraron cómo estos dos enfoques convergieron para esclarecer problemas de economía agrícola, contactos externos o foráneos, de ideologías y de organización socio-política.

description: En el curso del levantamiento cartográfico de Uxmal se redescubrió la muralla que circundaba el núcleo central de este centro Maya. A modo de prueba se examinaron más detenidamente algunos grupos de viviendas situados en el norte. Ellas dieron por resultado una relación estrecha entre la topografía, la naturaleza del suelo y los complejos habitacionales. También aquí se hallaron indicios evidentes de una estructura social y urbana, y el proceso de población pudo ser investigado retrospectivamente hasta el período preclásico.

Hanle model of a spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate of excitons in semiconductor quantum wells

description: We present a theoretical model of a driven-dissipative spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate of indirect excitons in semiconductor quantum wells (QW's). Our steady-state solution of the problem shares analogies with the Hanle effect in an optical orientation experiment. The role of the spin pump in our case is played by boson stimulated scattering into the linearly-polarized ground state and the depolarization occurs as a result of long-range exchange interaction between electrons and holes. Our theory agrees with the recent experiment [A. A. High et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 246403 (2013)], where spontaneous emergence of spatial coherence and polarization texture have been observed. As a complementary test, we discuss a configuration where an external magnetic field is applied in the structure plane.

description: We compute the topologically twisted index for general $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric field theories on $\mathbb{H}_2\times S^1$. We also discuss asymptotically $AdS_4$ magnetically charged black holes with hyperbolic horizon, in four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 2$ gauged supergravity. With certain assumptions, put forward by Benini, Hristov and Zaffaroni, we find precise agreement between the black hole entropy and the topologically twisted index, for $ABJM$ theories.
