description: As a practical moralist and political theorist concerned with reforming a factious and religious public, Hume recommends a particular outlook that is fit for civilized society. In this dissertation, I present Hume as a contributor to the post-scholastic contest of philosophical systems, as an innovative thinker who revised the modern Epicurean outlook of Hobbes and Mandeville and challenged both the austere Christian Stoicism of Francis Hutcheson and the Platonic rationalism of Samuel Clarke. I argue that the political mentality that Hume presented as suitable for sustaining the prevailing social order constitutes one more step in the development of the modern Epicurean mentality. This mentality, moreover, is not strictly political, but incorporates metaphysical, epistemological, and moral judgments that, in light of the contest of systems, are rightly regarded as a restatement of modern Epicurean positions. Hume, in accord with the principles of the new political science, sought to protect the gains of civilization from the vestiges of barbarism, which, for Hume, were manifested in the superstitious tribalism of religionists and political partisans. Hume replaces Christian, Whig, and Tory myths—i.e. grand narratives situating human beings as moral and political subjects—with the Epicurean myth of the progress of human society. The end of political society, from this perspective, is neither piety nor moral improvement, but prosperity, ease, and comfort, which, together, serve as the measure of progress and the reason for popular consent to the exercise of public political authority. This mentality, I argue, sheds light on the normative dimensions of Hume’s liberal political science.
Sufficient Conditions for Apparent Horizons in Spherically Symmetric Initial Data

description: We establish sufficient conditions for the appearance of apparent horizons in spherically symmetric initial data when spacetime is foliated extrinsically. Let $M$ and $P$ be respectively the total material energy and the total material current contained in some ball of radius $\ell$. Suppose that the dominant energy condition is satisfied. We show that if $M- P \ge \ell$ then the region must possess a future apparent horizon for some non -trivial closed subset of such gauges. The same inequality holds on a larger subset of gauges but with a larger constant of proportionality which depends weakly on the gauge. This work extends substantially both our joint work on moment of time symmetry initial data as well as the work of Bizon, Malec and Ó Murchadha on a maximal slice.

The Making of Modern Musical Expertise: German Conservatories and Music Education, 1843-1933

Conservatories of music

description: Music conservatories are central institutions to the field of classical music. In them, aspiring professional hone their craft, renowned musicians pass on their expertise to upcoming generations, and notions of exactly who and what is considered “musical” are forged and disseminated. However, the apparently self-evident place of conservatories in modern cultures of classical music obscures their historical novelty—it is only since the latter nineteenth century that these institutions have become a pervasive force in classical music pedagogy and culture. This dissertation explores this revolution of institutionalized training in classical music by analyzing the history of German music conservatories over a roughly ninety-year period, from the founding of the Leipzig conservatory in 1843 to the Nazi takeover of power in 1933. Combining archival research, extant musicological scholarship, and theoretical and methodological approaches developed in a variety of social scientific and humanities disciplines, each chapter traces and historicizes a key development in modern music-pedagogical thought and practice: 1) the crystallization of a set of pedagogies designed to produce competency in the performance of canonical musical works; 2) the development of music education as a discipline; 3) the emergence of ear training; 4) the rise of Émile Jaques-Dalcroze’s method of rhythmic gymnastics. Throughout, I show that conservatories not only served to reproduce specific musical practices (such as the faithful performing of musical works, or Werktreue), but that they also functioned as incubators for new ways of thinking about human musicality and the pedagogies that would produce it. In particular, the latter chapters outline central features of what I call the “psychotechnical turn” in music education in the decades surrounding 1900, arguing that this resulted from growing connections between conservatory pedagogy and the psychological sciences.
Mechanics of a Plant in Fluid Flow

description: Plants live in constantly moving fluid, whether air or water. In response to the loads associated with fluid motion, plants bend and twist, often with great amplitude. These large deformations are not found in traditional engineering application and thus necessitate new specialised scientific developments. Studying Fluid-Structure Interactions (FSI) in botany, forestry and agricultural science is crucial to the optimisation of biomass production for food, energy, and construction materials. FSI are also central in the study of the ecological adaptation of plants to their environment. This review paper surveys the mechanics of FSI on individual plants. We present a short refresher on fluids mechanics then dive in the statics and dynamics of plant-fluid interactions. For every phenomenon considered, we present the appropriate dimensionless numbers to characterise the problem, discuss the implications of these phenomena on biological processes, and propose future research avenues. We cover the concept of reconfiguration while considering poroelasticity, torsion, chirality, buoyancy, and skin friction. We also cover the dynamical phenomena of wave action, flutter, and vortex-induced vibrations.

description: We consider the d-dimensional massless free field localized by a delta-pinning of strength e. We study the asymptotics of the variance of the field, and of the decay-rate of its 2-point function, as e goes to zero, for general Gaussian interactions. Physically speaking, we thus rigorously obtain the critical behavior of the transverse and longitudinal correlation lengths of the corresponding d+1-dimensional effective interface model in a non-mean-field regime. We also describe the set of pinned sites at small e, for a broad class of d-dimensional massless models.
Risks and Assets: A Qualitative Study of a Software Ecosystem in the Mining Industry

description: Digitalization and servitization are impacting many domains, including the mining industry. As the equipment becomes connected and technical infrastructure evolves, business models and risk management need to adapt. In this paper, we present a study on how changes in asset and risk distribution are evolving for the actors in a software ecosystem (SECO) and system-of-systems (SoS) around a mining operation. We have performed a survey to understand how Service Level Agreements (SLAs) -- a common mechanism for managing risk -- are used in other domains. Furthermore, we have performed a focus group study with companies. There is an overall trend in the mining industry to move the investment cost (CAPEX) from the mining operator to the vendors. Hence, the mining operator instead leases the equipment (as operational expense, OPEX) or even acquires a service. This change in business model impacts operation, as knowledge is moved from the mining operator to the suppliers. Furthermore, as the infrastructure becomes more complex, this implies that the mining operator is more and more reliant on the suppliers for the operation and maintenance. As this change is still in an early stage, there is no formalized risk management, e.g. through SLAs, in place. Rather, at present, the companies in the ecosystem rely more on trust and the incentives created by the promise of mutual future benefits of innovation activities. We believe there is a need to better understand how to manage risk in SECO as it is established and evolves. At the same time, in a SECO, the focus is on cooperation and innovation, the companies do not have incentives to address this unless there is an incident. Therefore, industry need, we believe, help in systematically understanding risk and defining quality aspects such as reliability and performance in the new business environment.

description: Much attention has been given to automatic sleep staging algorithms in past years, but the detection of discrete events in sleep studies is also crucial for precise characterization of sleep patterns and possible diagnosis of sleep disorders. We propose here a deep learning model for automatic detection and annotation of arousals and leg movements. Both of these are commonly seen during normal sleep, while an excessive amount of either is linked to disrupted sleep patterns, excessive daytime sleepiness impacting quality of life, and various sleep disorders. Our model was trained on 1,485 subjects and tested on 1,000 separate recordings of sleep. We tested two different experimental setups and found optimal arousal detection was attained by including a recurrent neural network module in our default model with a dynamic default event window (F1 = 0.75), while optimal leg movement detection was attained using a static event window (F1 = 0.65). Our work show promise while still allowing for improvements. Specifically, future research will explore the proposed model as a general-purpose sleep analysis model.

description: The interaction energies between two baryons at short distance in different flavor channels are calculated from the constituent quark model (CQM) and are compared with the recent lattice QCD (LQCD) results for baryon-baryon potentials at short distance. We consider the six-quark system with two strange quarks and focus on the quantum numbers, (Flavor,Spin)=(1,0),(8,1),(10,1),($\overline{10}$,1) and (27,0). The interaction energy is defined by subtracting out isolated baryon masses and relative kinetic energy of two baryons from the total energy of a compact six-quark state. We introduce interaction energy ratio between different flavors as a useful measure to test the prediction of CQM. We find that the ratios in CQM show good agreement with those in LQCD, which indicates that the short range part of the baryon-baryon interaction can be understood qualitatively in terms of the Pauli principle and spin-dependent color interaction among constituent quarks.

description: Tunnelling from a chaotic potential well is explained in terms of a set of complex periodic orbits which contain information about the real dynamics inside the well as well as the complex dynamics under the confining barrier. These orbits are associated with trajectories which are homoclinic to a real trajectory emerging from the optimal tunnelling path. The theory is verified by considering a model double-well problem.

description: As a contribution to the ongoing discussion of trajectories of spinless particles in spaces with torsion we show that the geometry of such spaces can be induced by embedding their curves in a euclidean space without torsion. Technically speaking, we define the tangent (velocity) space of the embedded space imposing non-holonomic constraints upon the tangent space of the embedding space. Parallel transport in the embedded space is determined as an induced parallel transport on the surface of constraints. Gauss' principle of least constraint is used to show that autoparallels realize a constrained motion that has a minimal deviation from the free, unconstrained motion, this being a mathematical expression of the principle of inertia.

Chiral order and fluctuations in multi-flavour QCD

description: Multi-flavour (N_f>=3) Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) may exhibit instabilities due to vacuum fluctuations of sea q-bar q pairs. Keeping the fluctuations small would require a very precise fine-tuning of the low-energy constants L_4 and L_6 to L_4[crit](M_rho) = - 0.51 * 10^(-3), and L_6[crit](M_rho) = - 0.26 * 10^(-3). A small deviation from these critical values -- like the one suggested by the phenomenology of OZI-rule violation in the scalar channel -- is amplified by huge numerical factors inducing large effects of vacuum fluctuations. This would lead in particular to a strong N_f-dependence of chiral symmetry breaking and a suppression of multi-flavour chiral order parameters. A simple resummation is shown to cure the instability of N_f>=3 ChPT, but it modifies the standard expressions of some O(p^2) and O(p^4) low-energy parameters in terms of observables. On the other hand, for r=m_s/m > 15, the two-flavour condensate is not suppressed, due to the contribution induced by massive vacuum s-bar s pairs. Thanks to the latter, the standard two-flavour ChPT is protected from multi-flavour instabilities and could provide a well-defined expansion scheme in powers of non-strange quark masses.

description: We report density-dependent effective hole mass measurements in undoped germanium quantum wells. We are able to span a large range of densities ($2.0-11\times10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$) in top-gated field effect transistors by positioning the strained buried Ge channel at different depths of 12 and 44 nm from the surface. From the thermal damping of the amplitude of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, we measure a light mass of $0.061m_e$ at a density of $2.2\times10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$. We confirm the theoretically predicted dependence of increasing mass with density and by extrapolation we find an effective mass of $\sim0.05m_e$ at zero density, the lightest effective mass for a planar platform that demonstrated spin qubits in quantum dots.
The Making of Public Open Space Accessible to Underserved Populations in Urban Village

description: Urban village, as a unique form of slum in China have developed from rural settlements, representing an existing conflict in the allocation of public resources to different social groups. Public resources, such as public infrastructure and social services, have been poorly provided in these areas. The majority of residents in urban villages are low-income, migrant workers. Unfortunately, the needs of these migrant tenants for a fine living environment have not been sufficiently incorporated in cities’ urban planning policies. The purpose of this study is to explore the usage of Public Open Space by urban villages’ residents, using a case study of Baishizhou Village, the largest urban village in Shenzhen, China. I have conducted a questionnaire survey towards 150 POS visitors and in-depth interviews with public officials, residents, and related design professionals My findings suggest that, in the planning process of POS, policymakers have considered only the needs of the landlords, while neglecting the fact that the majority users of the POS are in fact migrant tenants. Thus, incremental planning of urban villages that incorporates the need of urban migrants is necessary during the process of urbanization. I further argue that “incremental upgrading” rather than “comprehensive redevelopment” of UVs should be better understood and be pursued by Chinese planners, and citizenization of residents in Urban Village should be the pioneering transformation approach.

description: Gallavotti proposed an equivalence principle in hydrodynamics, which states that forced-damped fluids can be equally well represented by means of the Navier-Stokes equations and by means of time reversible dynamical systems called GNS. In the GNS systems, the usual viscosity is replaced by a state-dependent dissipation term which fixes one global quantity. The principle states that the mean values of properly chosen observables are the same for both representations of the fluid. In the same paper, the chaotic hypothesis of Gallavotti and Cohen is applied to hydrodynamics, leading to the conjecture that entropy fluctuations in the GNS system verify a relation first observed in nonequilibrium molecular dynamics. We tested these ideas in the case of two-dimensional fluids. We examined the fluctuations of global quadratic quantities in the statistically stationary state of a) the Navier-Stokes equations; b) the GNS equations. Our results are consistent with the validity of the fluctuation relation, and of the equivalence principle, indicating possible extensions thereof. Moreover, in these results the difference between the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem and the Evans-Searles identity is evident.

description: This is an intellectual biography of the classically trained Egyptian Muslim scholar, Muḥammad al-Ghazālī (1917-1996). A one-time leading intellectual of Egypt’s influential Islamic organization, the Muslim Brotherhood, Ghazālī was a popular author with a vast public following. Although his ideas have shaped the trajectories of various Islamic groups that emerged in Egypt during the 1970s “Islamic Revival,” he remains understudied. Through an analysis of his writings, this study presents a novel account on modern Islamic political thought, arguing that its sources extend well beyond what the secondary literature, as well as Muslims today, portray as the mainstays of the Islamic tradition—that is, the Qur’ān, the Sunna (Prophetic traditions), and fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). In contrast, it places Sufism and Islamic philosophy, or more specifically Islamic philosophical ethics, at the heart of Ghazālī’s modern-day political critiques. Additionally, it moves beyond the scholarly narrative that depicts contemporary Islamic political thought as simply Islamic reformulations of concepts and categories derived from modern Western social thought. By examining Ghazālī’s considerable interest in Euro-American self-help, spiritualism, and psychical research, it shows how his engagement with these new forms of religion was mediated by Islamic theological concepts, which he deployed to not only make sense of his interlocutors’ claims, but also correct and build upon their work. In highlighting the corrective and productive impulse behind his engagement with Euro-American thought, it demonstrates that Ghazālī was not merely an assimilator of Western ideas, but rather a contributor to a global project of rethinking the human potential.
A uGMRT and MeerKAT study of spectral shapes for galaxies in XMM-LSS
Creators: name: Kolwa, Sthabile
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: We use the combined observing capabilities of the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) and MeerKAT to form a new set of sensitive radio continuum images which we call superMIGHTEE. The radio continuum observations cover a 120 – 1800 MHz frequency range on the XMM-LSS field. With these data, we can probe radio-selected galaxies right down to the microJy level and determine the physical processes underlying the observed radio emission. To do this, we obtain spectral index and spectral curvature constraints across frequencies covered by uGMRT band-3 and -4 as well as the MeerKAT L-band. Obtaining optical/near-infrared counterparts from archival Hyper Suprime-Cam and UltraVISTA, we explore causality between radiative processes powerting radio emission and host galaxy properties by determining how spectral curvature varies galaxy properties such as dust-corrected optical colour and stellar mass for radio sources up to z~6.

description: The Internet and, in particular, Online Social Networks have changed the way that terrorist and extremist groups can influence and radicalise individuals. Recent reports show that the mode of operation of these groups starts by exposing a wide audience to extremist material online, before migrating them to less open online platforms for further radicalization. Thus, identifying radical content online is crucial to limit the reach and spread of the extremist narrative. In this paper, our aim is to identify measures to automatically detect radical content in social media. We identify several signals, including textual, psychological and behavioural, that together allow for the classification of radical messages. Our contribution is three-fold: (1) we analyze propaganda material published by extremist groups and create a contextual text-based model of radical content, (2) we build a model of psychological properties inferred from these material, and (3) we evaluate these models on Twitter to determine the extent to which it is possible to automatically identify online radical tweets. Our results show that radical users do exhibit distinguishable textual, psychological, and behavioural properties. We find that the psychological properties are among the most distinguishing features. Additionally, our results show that textual models using vector embedding features significantly improves the detection over TF-IDF features. We validate our approach on two experiments achieving high accuracy. Our findings can be utilized as signals for detecting online radicalization activities.

description: This dissertation examines the relationship between state failures and state legitimacy in Italy. The study is based on a one-year ethnographic field research in Varese City. The political party Northern League and its followers (Leghisti) has been chosen to observe the state-society relationships. It has been discovered that among others, three factors were instrumental in the process by which the state-society relationships has been deteriorated so as to open the path for an alternative legitimacy claim such as Padanian nationalism. Initially, revelations of political corruption and illegal state practices, failure of the state to address problems related to globalization such as global economic integration and uncontrolled immigration were instrumental. Later, struggle of hegemony and subjugation between the League and the state has been another important cause for deteriorated relationships. This study also provides qualitative data on the processes by which those deteriorated relationships and state failures contributed the rise of xenophobia and suggests that this failures of the state coupled with the problems brought about by the uncontrolled immigration and global economic expansion is likely to open a path for criminalization of both immigrants and local people.

description: 阿濃（朱溥生）是香港著名的散文及兒童文學作家，出版的著作迄今已逾百種。無論從內容取材到 語言運用，他的作品極具本土色彩，深受香港青少年的喜愛，多年來再版不絕。1993 年，阿濃移居 加拿大，至今仍著述不斷，在香港和加拿大兩地發表作品。本論文以阿濃在移民前後的獲獎作品為 分析對象，從文化認同 (Cultural Identity) 的視角，探尋阿濃在作品中發聲位置 (Position of Enunciation) 的游移及其書寫策略的轉變，藷此審視他與香港本土寫作的經驗，以及他與加拿大華文創作的關係， 從中窺見海外華人作家對本土身分的叩問與反思。 A Nong (CHU Pu-sun) is a renowned Hong Kong writer of prose and children’s literature, having published more than a hundred books to date. Whether it is the content of the writing and choice of expression, his works, which have been reprinted many times, often reflect his native consciousness and are widely read by young people in Hong Kong. After immigrating to Canada in 1993, A Nong has continued to publish books in both Hong Kong and Canada. Based on A Nong’s award-winning works published between his pre- and post-immigration days, this paper explores his shifting position of enunciation and writing strategies from the perspective of cultural identity. By investigating his writing experiences in both Hong Kong and Canada, while simultaneously exploring their relationships to each other, we can observe how A Nong, a Chinese Diaspora author, reflects on his cultural roots.
Controlling group and phase velocities in bidirectional mode-locked fiber lasers

description: A bidirectional mode-locked fiber laser producing two correlated frequency combs of the same repetition rate is demonstrated. The intensity dependence of pulse and phase velocities are measured simultaneously. As expected, the phase delay is determined by the linear and nonlinear indices of refraction. The nonlinear Kerr effect contribution to the pulse velocity is dwarfed by a contribution from saturable gain dynamics.

Lorentz-invariant, retrocausal, and deterministic hidden variables

description: We review several no-go theorems attributed to Gisin and Hardy, Conway and Kochen purporting the impossibility of Lorentz-invariant deterministic hidden-variable model for explaining quantum nonlocality. Those theorems claim that the only known solution to escape the conclusions is either to accept a preferred reference frame or to abandon the hidden-variable program altogether. Here we present a different alternative based on a foliation dependent framework adapted to deterministic hidden variables. We analyse the impact of such an approach on Bohmian mechanics and show that retrocausation (that is future influencing the past) necessarily comes out without time-loop paradox.

The Twin-System Approach as One Generic Solution for XAI: An Overview of ANN-CBR Twins for Explaining Deep Learning
Creators: name: Keane, Mark T.
name: Kenny, Eoin M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019

description: The notion of twin systems is proposed to address the eXplainable AI (XAI) problem, where an uninterpretable black-box system is mapped to a white-box 'twin' that is more interpretable. In this short paper, we overview very recent work that advances a generic solution to the XAI problem, the so called twin system approach. The most popular twinning in the literature is that between an Artificial Neural Networks (ANN ) as a black box and Case Based Reasoning (CBR) system as a white-box, where the latter acts as an interpretable proxy for the former. We outline how recent work reviving this idea has applied it to deep learning methods. Furthermore, we detail the many fruitful directions in which this work may be taken; such as, determining the most (i) accurate feature-weighting methods to be used, (ii) appropriate deployments for explanatory cases, (iii) useful cases of explanatory value to users.

description: Parity-Time (PT) symmetric quantum mechanics is a complex extension of conventional Hermitian quantum mechanics in which physical observables possess a real eigenvalue spectrum. However, an experimental demonstration of the true quantum nature of PT symmetry has been elusive thus far, as only single-particle physics has been exploited to date. In our work, we demonstrate two-particle quantum interference in a PT-symmetric system. We employ integrated photonic waveguides to reveal that PT-symmetric bunching of indistinguishable photons shows strongly counterintuitive features. We substantiate our experimental results by modelling the system by a quantum master equation, which we analytically solve using Lie algebra methods. Our work paves the way for nonlocal PT-symmetric quantum mechanics as a novel building block for future quantum devices.
Enhancing magic sets with an application to ontological reasoning

description: Magic sets are a Datalog to Datalog rewriting technique to optimize query answering. The rewritten program focuses on a portion of the stable model(s) of the input program which is sufficient to answer the given query. However, the rewriting may introduce new recursive definitions, which can involve even negation and aggregations, and may slow down program evaluation. This paper enhances the magic set technique by preventing the creation of (new) recursive definitions in the rewritten program. It turns out that the new version of magic sets is closed for Datalog programs with stratified negation and aggregations, which is very convenient to obtain efficient computation of the stable model of the rewritten program. Moreover, the rewritten program is further optimized by the elimination of subsumed rules and by the efficient handling of the cases where binding propagation is lost. The research was stimulated by a challenge on the exploitation of Datalog/\textsc{dlv} for efficient reasoning on large ontologies. All proposed techniques have been hence implemented in the \textsc{dlv} system, and tested for ontological reasoning, confirming their effectiveness. Under consideration for publication in Theory and Practice of Logic Programming.

Baryogenesis and Gravitino Dark Matter in Gauge-Mediated Supersymmetry-Breaking Models

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We discuss two cosmological issues in a generic gauge-mediated supersymmetry (SUSY)-breaking model, namely the Universe's baryon asymmetry and the gravitino dark-matter density. We show that both problems can be simultaneously solved if there exist extra matter multiplets of a SUSY-invariant mass of the order of the ``$μ$-term'', as suggested in several realistic SUSY grand-unified theories. We propose an attractive scenario in which the observed baryon asymmetry is produced in a way totally independent of the reheating temperature of inflation without causing any cosmological gravitino problem. Furthermore, in a relatively wide parameter space, we can also explain the present mass density of cold dark matter by the thermal relics of the gravitinos without an adjustment of the reheating temperature of inflation. We point out that there is an interesting relation between the baryon asymmetry and the dark-matter density.

The Maria da Penha Law and the Media: Understanding the Adoption of Human Rights Norms on Domestic Violence in Brazil

description: In 2006, Brazil enacted a law on domestic violence in response to an Inter-American Commission on Human Rights decision condemning the country for denying justice to Maria da Penha, after whom the law was named. Twelve years later, in a turbulent political climate, quantitative studies suggest rates of violence against women are higher than ever. Has the law, which directly replicates human rights norms, effected genuine societal changes that protect women? This paper examines 50 online news stories on the Maria da Penha Law and finds that, although the implementation of the law is imperfect, the spread of human rights norms appears to have been significant. Media discourse suggests that the dominant narrative on the law takes protections for women to be necessary, brings attention to issues in its implementation, and attempts to increase rights-consciousness among the public. Lastly, the news stories suggest that Maria da Penha herself, through her unique positionality in relation to the law, plays an important role in making these international standards resonate with Brazilians.
