description: Regional cooperation, once largely the preserve of democracies, is now seen in many regions characterized by autocracy. Indeed, authoritarian leaders increasingly cooperate regionally, above all to augment the resilience of their regimes. While the output from this cooperation differs considerably from liberal-democratic regionalism, the experience of European integration nevertheless sheds light on an important underlying dynamic within this growing autocratic cooperation. Indeed, as with early and mid-stage European regional integration, authoritarian regionalism is driven by functional demands arising from the limited access nature of their regimes. However, countervailing ideational dynamics (such as the increasing salience of identity and legitimacy issues), which affect regional cooperation, are present in many cases. These counter-functional dynamics largely pre-date regionalist efforts but appear to be exacerbated by regional cooperation. This paper examines the interplay between functional demands and counter-functional dynamics in the context of ‘protective regionalisms’ in Eurasia, the Gulf, and West Africa. As global politics becomes more polarized, with regionalism seen as a source of strength for authoritarian states, the dynamics and underlying logics of such projects become increasingly important.

 Remarks. Species distributed and relatively common in the Eastern Mediterranean, ranging southwards as far as Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Yemen (CHANDLER et al. 2008). I am not aware of any published records, except for those from Saudi Arabia by UHMANN (1998), and I have not seen any specimens from these three countries. Uhmann’s record from Hakimah (UHMANN 1998), which is located not far from border with Yemen, may belong to the externally similar A. anceyi rathjensi, and needs verification.

description: A wide range of organisms use circadian clocks to keep internal sense of daily time and regulate their behavior accordingly. Most of these clocks use intracellular genetic networks based on positive and negative regulatory elements. The integration of these "circuits" at the cellular level imposes strong constraints on their functioning and design. Here we study a recently proposed model [N. Barkai and S. Leibler, Nature, 403:267--268, 2000] that incorporates just the essential elements found experimentally. We show that this type of oscillator is driven mainly by two elements: the concentration of a repressor protein and the dynamics of an activator protein forming an inactive complex with the repressor. Thus the clock does not need to rely on mRNA dynamics to oscillate, which makes it especially resistant to fluctuations. Oscillations can be present even when the time average of the number of mRNA molecules goes below one. Under some conditions, this oscillator is not only resistant to but paradoxically also enhanced by the intrinsic biochemical noise.

description: Distance measurements for extragalactic objects are a fundamental problem in astronomy and cosmology. In the era of precision cosmology, we urgently need better measurements of cosmological distances to observationally test the increasing $H_{0}$ tension of the Hubble constant measured from different tools. Using spectroastrometry, GRAVITY at The Very Large Telescope Interferometer successfully revealed the structure, kinematics and angular sizes of the broad-line region (BLR) of 3C 273 with an unprecedentedly high spatial resolution. Fortunately, reverberation mapping (RM) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) reliably provides linear sizes of their BLRs. Here we report a joint analysis of spectroastrometry and RM observations to measure AGN distances. We apply this analysis to 3C 273 observed by both GRAVITY and an RM campaign,and find an angular distance of $551.5_{-78.7}^{+97.3}\, {\rm Mpc}$ and $H_{0}=71.5_{-10.6}^{+11.9}\,{\rm km\,s^{-1}\,Mpc^{-1}}$. Advantages of the analysis are 1) its pure geometrical measurements and 2) it simultaneously yields mass of the central black hole in the BLR. Moreover, we can conveniently repeat measurements of selected AGNs to efficiently reduce the statistical and systematic errors. Future observations of a reasonably sized sample ($\sim 30$ AGNs) will provide distances of the AGNs and hence a new way of measuring $H_{0}$ with a high precision $\left(\lesssim 3\%\right)$ to test the $H_{0}$ tension.

Publisher: name: Griffith University

Subjects: subject: dictatorship
subject: cross-cultural analysis
subject: fiction novels
subject: identity

description: In this thesis, I analyze three novels from different authors and countries. The common ground between them is that they are all non-Portuguese writers (hence, strangers) who set their fictional plots during the period of the Portuguese dictatorship. This right-wing extremism was Europe's most long-lasting dictatorship and extended to the country's overseas colonies. In this context, foreign writers are important since the view of a stranger, free from local constraints and mores, can offer distinct and relevant insights. This notion of the Stranger is not only authorial but also reveals itself in the novels' characters, which are active and reflexive agents interpreting a foreign culture while strangers to the society they come into. As such, they bring questioning and innovation into that same structure. My research uses novels as lenses for cross-cultural sociological analysis to explore society's historical, cross-cultural and memorialist tensions, as well as unsolved traumas concerning identity and (not) belonging.

description: The electronic spin precession in semiconductor dots is strongly affected by the spin-orbit coupling. We present a theory of the electronic spin resonance at low magnetic fields that predicts a strong dependence on the dot occupation, the magnetic field and the spin-orbit coupling strength. Coulomb interaction effects are also taken into account in a numerical approach.

description: We study the behavior of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev SU(2) invariants of links in L(p,q) as a function of the level r-2. They are given by 1 over the square root of r times one of p Laurent polynomials evaluated at e to the 2 pi i divided by 4pr. The congruence class of r modulo p determines which polynomial is applicable. If p is zero modulo four, the meridian of L(p,q) is non-trivial in the skein module but has trivial Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev SU(2) invariants. On the other hand, we show that one may recover the element in the Kauffman bracket skein module of L(p,q) represented by a link from the collection of the WRT invariants at all levels if p is a prime or twice an odd prime. By a more delicate argument, this is also shown to be true for p=9.

Composing race and nation: intercultural music and postcolonial identities in Malaysia and Singapore
Creators: name: Chan, Amy Wai Yee
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2005

description: This thesis examines the process of hybridity in intercultural music and its deployment as sites for the politics of identity, of both racial and national, in a cross-cultural context in contemporary Malaysia and Singapore. To demonstrate this process, this thesis analyses four pieces of contemporary music written for mixed and vocal ensembles by composers in Malaysia and Singapore. These four case studies reflect the differences in identity formation by different races, and varying notions of belonging and not-belonging. The 'speaking' positions of the composers (with regard to issues of majority/minority, class and race) are the essential starting points for the inference of any identity construction. The analyses reveal that new identities or new interpretations of racial identities are performatively constructed through the citations of(and 'play' on)fixities and such established norms. To successfully argue my case, I use Bakhtin's (1981) concept of intentional hybridity and dialogism to explain the process of inter-culturalism. In polyglossic societies such as Malaysia and Singapore, hybridity and dialogism naturally take place in the day-to-day interactions between races. Within the framework of a composition, differences(of cultures)are not smoothed over but are allowed to come up against each other, to, virtually, fight it out. This is demonstrated in my analysis of the musical works: the ways in which different textures, discordant timbre and tuning systems, performance styles and assortments of rhythms are incongruously juxtaposed to each other. This thesis also examines these compositions within their performance contexts to better apprehend the process of identification, arguing that it is the concerted effort of composer, performer and audience that produce meaning.

description: We address the spatial scale, ionization structure, mass and metal content of gas at the Milky Way disk-halo interface detected as absorption in the foreground of seven closely-spaced, high-latitude halo blue horizontal branch stars (BHBs) with heights z = 3 - 14 kpc. We detect transitions that trace multiple ionization states (e.g. CaII, FeII, SiIV, CIV) with column densities that remain constant with height from the disk, indicating that the gas most likely lies within z < 3.4 kpc. The intermediate ionization state gas traced by CIV and SiIV is strongly correlated over the full range of transverse separations probed by our sightlines, indicating large, coherent structures greater than 1 kpc in size. The low ionization state material traced by CaII and FeII does not exhibit a correlation with either N$_{\rm HI}$ or transverse separation, implying cloudlets or clumpiness on scales less than 10 pc. We find that the observed ratio log(N_SiIV/ N_CIV), with a median value of -0.69+/-0.04, is sensitive to the total carbon content of the ionized gas under the assumption of either photoionization or collisional ionization. The only self-consistent solution for photoionized gas requires that Si be depleted onto dust by 0.35 dex relative to the solar Si/C ratio, similar to the level of Si depletion in DLAs and in the Milky Way ISM. The allowed range of values for the areal mass infall rate of warm, ionized gas at the disk-halo interface is 0.0003 < dM_gas / dtdA [M_sun kpc^-2 yr^-] < 0.006. Our data support a physical scenario in which the Milky Way is fed by complex, multiphase processes at its disk-halo interface that involve kpc-scale ionized envelopes or streams containing pc-scale, cool clumps.

Fragile Topology Protected by Inversion Symmetry: Diagnosis, Bulk-Boundary Correspondence, and Wilson Loop

description: We study the bulk and boundary properties of fragile topological insulators (TIs) protected by inversion symmetry, mostly focusing on the class A of the Altland-Zirnbauer classification. First, we propose an efficient method for diagnosing fragile band topology by using the symmetry data in momentum space. Using this method, we show that among all the possible parity configurations of inversion-symmetric insulators, at least 17 percent of them have fragile topology in 2D while fragile TIs are less than 3 percent in 3D. Second, we study the bulk-boundary correspondence of fragile TIs protected by inversion symmetry. In particular, we generalize the notion of $d$-dimensional ($d$D) $k$th-order TIs, which is normally defined for $0d$, and show that they all have fragile topology. In terms of the Dirac Hamiltonian, a $d$D $k$th-order TI has $(k-1)$ boundary mass terms. We show that a minimal fragile TI with the filling anomaly can be considered as the $d$D $(d+1)$th-order TI, and all the other $d$D $k$th-order TIs with $k>(d+1)$ can be constructed by stacking $d$D $(d+1)$th-order TIs. Although $d$D $(d+1)$th-order TIs have no in-gap states, the boundary mass terms carry an odd winding number along the boundary, which induces localized charges on the boundary at the positions where the boundary mass terms change abruptly. In the cases with $k>(d+1)$, we show that the net parity of the system with boundaries can distinguish topological insulators and trivial insulators. Also, by studying the (nested) Wilson loop spectra, we determine the minimal number of bands to resolve the Wannier obstruction, which is consistent with the prediction from our diagnosis method of fragile topology. Finally, we show that a $(d+1)$D $(k-1)$th-order TI can be obtained by an adiabatic pumping of $d$D $k$th-order TI, which generalizes the previous study of the 2D 3rd-order TI.

description: Due to the emergence of new technologies, the whole electricity system is undergoing transformations on a scale and pace never observed before. The decentralization of energy resources and the smart grid have forced utility services to rethink their relationships with customers. Demand response (DR) seeks to adjust the demand for power instead of adjusting the supply. However, DR business models rely on customer participation and can only be effective when large numbers of customers in close geographic vicinity, e.g., connected to the same transformer, opt in. Here, we introduce a model for the dynamics of service adoption on a two-layer multiplex network: the layer of social interactions among customers and the power-grid layer connecting the households. While the adoption process - based on peer-to-peer communication - runs on the social layer, the time-dependent recovery rate of the nodes depends on the states of their neighbors on the power-grid layer, making an infected node surrounded by infectious ones less keen to recover. Numerical simulations of the model on synthetic and real-world networks show that a strong local influence of the customers' actions leads to a discontinuous transition where either none or all the nodes in the network are infected, depending on the infection rate and social pressure to adopt. We find that clusters of early adopters act as points of high local pressure, helping maintaining adopters, and facilitating the eventual adoption of all nodes. This suggests direct marketing strategies on how to efficiently establish and maintain new technologies such as DR schemes.

description: The study used a pre-/post-test design within a secondary analysis of existing de identified data obtained from a major Northeastern hospital for use by permission, in order to evaluate the impact of a communication cultural competency training of hospital registration personnel focused on teaching the collection of gender identity and sexual orientation data (SOGI). The study’s convenience sample (N=240) was diverse, given 34.6% (N=83) identified as White/Caucasian, 28.3% (N=68) as Hispanic/Latino, 27.1% (N=65) as Black /African American, and 10.0% (N=24) as Asian. For gender identity, 74.6% (N=179) identified as female, and 15.8% (N=37) as male. Those who identified their sexual orientation as heterosexual comprised 79.6% (N=191) of the sample. The mean time in current role for the sample was 3.97 years (Min = 1-1 to 6 months, Max = 6-over 10 years, SD = 1.547). For example, 18.3% (N=44) indicated being in their current role for between 5-10 years. Some 74.2% (N=178) indicated that they know someone who is LGBTQ+. Of note, 16.7% (N=38) indicated that they had other training in the last three months. Cronbach’s Alphas ranged from .858-.978 for the 11 new study scales, as very good to excellent internal consistency. As main study findings, paired t-tests for all five global scale scores (knowledge, self-efficacy, skill/ability level, and personal preparation for collecting SOGI data—and engagement in recommended SOGI data collection behavior) demonstrated significant differences from pre- to post- training in this sample (p˂.000; Bonferroni Significance level, p

description: Anthelephila paolii (Krekich-Strassoldo, 1928)
(Fig. 21)
 Remarks. Species described by KREKICH- STRASSOLDO (1928) from the southern part of the Somali Republic (‘ Somalia Italiana’). In Yemen recorded from Wadi Dareija [SW of Dhala], Usaifira [N of Ta’izz], and from the vicinity of Ta’izz and Sana’a (PIC & HAWKINS 1957).
 Anthelephila paolii belongs to a small, almost exclusively Afrotropical group of species characterized by the presence of a conspicuous, longitudinal median sulcus on the pronotal disc (Fig. 21). Having examined the relevant Yemeni specimens from the BMNH, I can agree with remark made by J. Balfour-Browne in PIC & HAWKINS (1957) on identification. However, based on the African specimens of my collection, it seems that the figures of the male characters by KREKICH- STRASSOLDO (1928) are rather sketchy, and / or there is variation in the detailed morphology of male sternite VIII.

description: In this work, we consider the use of model-driven deep learning techniques for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection. Compared with conventional MIMO systems, massive MIMO promises improved spectral efficiency, coverage and range. Unfortunately, these benefits are coming at the cost of significantly increased computational complexity. To reduce the complexity of signal detection and guarantee the performance, we present a learned conjugate gradient descent network (LcgNet), which is constructed by unfolding the iterative conjugate gradient descent (CG) detector. In the proposed network, instead of calculating the exact values of the scalar step-sizes, we explicitly learn their universal values. Also, we can enhance the proposed network by augmenting the dimensions of these step-sizes. Furthermore, in order to reduce the memory costs, a novel quantized LcgNet is proposed, where a low-resolution nonuniform quantizer is integrated into the LcgNet to smartly quantize the aforementioned step-sizes. The quantizer is based on a specially designed soft staircase function with learnable parameters to adjust its shape. Meanwhile, due to fact that the number of learnable parameters is limited, the proposed networks are easy and fast to train. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed network can achieve promising performance with much lower complexity.

description: The paper is the sequel to q-alg/9704011. We extend the Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction procedure to q-difference operators associated with arbitrary semisimple Lie algebras. This leads to a new elliptic deformation of the Lie bialgebra structure on the associated loop algebra. The related classical r-matrix is explicitly described in terms of the Coxeter transformation. We also present a cross-section theorem for q-gauge transformations which generalizes a theorem due to R.Steinberg.

description: Several studies showed adolescents living in temporary housing face multiple risks. The Floating Hospital (TFH), a non-profit organization serving homeless families in New York City, created the Camp Rise Up intervention as a six-day overnight camp to address these risks via a 14-lesson curriculum on the following topics: 1) communication; 2) self-esteem/body image; 3) anatomy; 4) alcohol and drugs; 5) puberty; 6) peer pressure; 7) pregnancy; 8) contraception; 9) gender and sexuality; 10) healthy relationships; 11) consent; 12) STIs/HIV; 13) media literacy; 14) managing emotions and conflict negotiation. Evaluation of Camp Rise Up compared pre-camp to post-camp mean scores for stage of change, self-efficacy, knowledge and social support for five behaviors of focus: saying “no” to sex, if pressured to have sex; talking about the need to use a condom every time, if you have sex; saying “no” to drugs, if pressured to use them; saying “no” to alcohol, if pressured to drink; and ending unhealthy relationships, if being abused. A secondary analysis of existing data collected by TFH on their August 2019 camp included a sample (n=24) that was 50.0% (n=11) Black, 36.4% (n= 8) Latinx, and 13.6% (n=3) mixed race with 13 girls (54.2%) and 11 boys (45.8%) with mean age of 13.26 (SD= 1.322, min=11, max=16). Results showed: a significant increase from pre-camp to post-camp for knowledge of how to say “no” to sex, if pressured (p=.002); self-rated knowledge for all 14 topics covered in the curriculum increased significantly from pre-lesson to post-lesson (p=.000); post-camp ratings for counselors, teachers, overall camp experience, and 14 lessons were all very good to excellent; and, majority of participants would recommend the camp to others, diffusing the innovation of Camp Rise Up. Emergent themes from qualitative data analysis were: camp was a fun positive experience, they made new friends, learned new things, and tried new things beyond their comfort zone, Findings may serve as preliminary studies data to justify grant funding to support a camp of longer duration with a larger sample size and long-term follow-up. The curriculum may find application in meeting needs of this vulnerable population for vital health education.

description: At any order, the perturbative expansion of the expectation values of Wilson lines in Chern-Simons theory gives certain integral expressions. We show that they all lead to knot invariants. Moreover these are finite type invariants whose order coincides with the order in the perturbative expansion. Together they combine to give a universal Vassiliev invariant.

A Spatial Bayesian Semiparametric Mixture Model for Positive Definite Matrices with Applications to Diffusion Tensor Imaging

description: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a popular magnetic resonance imaging technique used to characterize microstructural changes in the brain. DTI studies quantify the diffusion of water molecules in a voxel using an estimated 3x3 symmetric positive definite diffusion tensor matrix. Statistical analysis of DTI data is challenging because the data are positive definite matrices. Matrix-variate information is often summarized by a univariate quantity, such as the fractional anisotropy (FA), leading to a loss of information. Furthermore, DTI analyses often ignore the spatial association of neighboring voxels, which can lead to imprecise estimates. Although the spatial modeling literature is abundant, modeling spatially dependent positive definite matrices is challenging. To mitigate these issues, we propose a matrix-variate Bayesian semiparametric mixture model, where the positive definite matrices are distributed as a mixture of inverse Wishart distributions with the spatial dependence captured by a Markov model for the mixture component labels. Conjugacy and the double Metropolis-Hastings algorithm result in fast and elegant Bayesian computing. Our simulation study shows that the proposed method is more powerful than non-spatial methods. We also apply the proposed method to investigate the effect of cocaine use on brain structure. The contribution of our work is to provide a novel statistical inference tool for DTI analysis by extending spatial statistics to matrix-variate data.

title: The Feeding Ecology of Southern Hemisphere Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in a Changing Antarctic Ecosystem

Subjects: subject: feeding ecology
subject: Southern hemisphere humpback whales

subject: Antarctic ecosystem

description: Southern hemisphere humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are capital breeders that use stored energy reserves to migrate annually from their high latitude feeding areas to their low latitude breeding areas. They are thought to follow the classical feeding paradigm of feeding exclusively on Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) during the austral summer in the highly productive waters of the Southern Ocean. For the last two decades, observations and studies have put the validity of the classical feeding paradigm under scrutiny because diverse lines of evidence suggest more feeding heterogeneity occurs for southern hemisphere humpback whales than has been assumed under the classical feeding paradigm. This may be an indication that the paradigm has either always been an oversimplification, or that the feeding ecology of humpback whales is subject to more natural ecosystem variability than previously expected. Alternatively, it may be a sign of present-day changes in the feeding ecology of southern hemisphere humpback whales related to climate-induced variability in the Antarctic sea-ice ecosystem. Climate change induced alterations to the abiotic environment, such as warming ocean temperatures or declines in sea ice extent and duration, are thought to lead to biomass reduction of sympagic Antarctic krill. This in turn is hypothesised to carry ecosystem cascade effects impacting highfidelity Antarctic krill consumers like southern hemisphere humpback whales. Detailed long-term information of the past and current diet of humpback whales are needed to successfully differentiate between natural feeding heterogeneity of these populations and their feeding response to climate-induced environmental change. This thesis aims to evaluate the dietary niche width and trophic position of southern hemisphere humpback whales across a circumpolar spatial and long-term temporal scale.
