description: We give a new, unexpected characterization of saturated fusion systems on a p-group S in terms of idempotents in the p-local double Burnside ring of S that satisfy a Frobenius reciprocity relation, and reformulate fusion-theoretic phenomena in the language of idempotents. Interpreting our results in stable homotopy, we answer a long-standing question on stable splittings of classifying spaces of finite groups, and generalize the Adams--Wilkerson criterion for recognizing rings of invariants in the cohomology of an elementary abelian p-group. This work is partly motivated by a conjecture of Haynes Miller which proposes retractive transfer triples as a purely homotopy-theoretic model for p-local finite groups. We take an important step toward proving this conjecture by showing that a retractive transfer triple gives rise to a p-local finite group when two technical assumptions are made, thus reducing the conjecture to proving those two assumptions.

Topics detached to the left: on 'left dislocation', 'hanging topic', and related constructions in German
Creators: name: Nolda, Andreas
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: In this paper I argue that there are three distinct constructions in Modern German in which a 'topic constituent' is detached to the left: (left-)dislocated topic ('left dislocation'), (left-)attached topic ('mixed left dislocation'), and (left-)hanging topic ('hanging topic'). Presupposing the framework of Integrational Linguistics, I provide syntactic and semantic analyses for them. In particular, I propose that these constructions involve the syntactic function (syntactic) topic, which relates the topic constituent to the remaining part of the sentence. Dislocated and attached topic constituents function in addition as a strong or weak (syntactic) antecedent of some resumptive 'd-pronoun' form. Dislocated topic, attached topic, and hanging topic are in turn contrasted with 'free topics'. Being sentential units of their own, the latter are syntactically unconnected to the following sentence. In particular, they are not topic constituents.

description: Although the pharmacological inhibition of cholesterol ester transport protein (CETP) has been proposed as a method of preventing and treating cardiovascular disease (CVD), the adverse effects of current inhibitors have cast doubt on the interaction mechanisms of inhibitors and CETP. In response, a molecular dynamics simulation was used to investigate their interaction and shed light on the lipid exchange mechanism of CETP. Results showed that torcetrapib, anacetrapib, and evacetrapib can induce the incremental rigidity of CETP, yet decrease the stability of Helix X and the hydrophobic tunnel of CETP, with passable binding abilities (ΔGbind, −61.08, −64.23, and −61.57 kcal mol−1). During their binding processes, Van der Waals components (ΔEvdw + ΔGSA) play a dominant role, and the inhibitory effects closely correlated with residues Cys13, Val198, Gln199, Ser230, His232, and Phe263, which could reduce the flexibility of N- and C- termini and Helix X, as well as the stability of hydrophobic tunnel, into which the three inhibitors could enter and promote the formation of intramolecular H-bonds such as Thr138–Asn192 and Arg37–Glu186. Additionally, the three inhibitors could restrain the formation of an opening at the CETP N-terminal, which given the other findings suggests the tunneling mechanism of CETP transfer. The paper closes with an explanation of conceivable causes of the insufficient efficacy of the inhibitors, and puts forward the rationality in targeting the CETP distal end for CVD therapies.
On split-CPs, uninterpretable features, and the 'perfectness' of language
Creators: name: Newmeyer, Frederick J.
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: This paper discusses critically a number of developments at the heart of current syntactic theory. These include the postulation of a rich sequence of projections at the left periphery of the sentence; the idea that movement is tied to the need to eliminate uninterpretable features; and the conception put forward by Chomsky and others that advances in the past decade have made it reasonable to raise the question about whether language might be in some sense ‘perfect’. However, I will argue that there is little motivation for a highly-articulated left-periphery, that there is no connection between movement and uninterpretable features, and that there is no support for the idea that language might be perfect.

description: We consider a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) which describes the velocity field of a viscous, incompressible non-Newtonian fluid subject to a random force. Here the extra stress tensor of the fluid is given by a polynomial of degree $p-1$ of the rate of strain tensor, while the colored noise is considered as a random force. We investigate the existence and the uniqueness of weak solutions to this SPDE.

Sentential particles and clausal typing in the veneto dialects
Creators: name: Munaro, Nicola
name: Poletto, Cecilia
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: In this work we examine several sentential particles, occurring in imperatives, main exclamative and interrogative sentences, which display a uniform syntactic behaviour. We analyse them as heads of high CP projections which require their specifier to be filled either by the wh-item (in sentences where there is one) or by the whole clause, yielding the sentence final position of the particle. The hypothesis that they are C°-heads accounts for their sensitivity to sentence type and for their occurrence only in matrix contexts. We also provide a first sketch of their semantic contribution, showing that they select ‘non standard’ contexts and interact with tense and modality of the verb when the whole CP has moved to their specifier.

The effect of thresholding on temporal avalanche statistics

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We discuss intermittent time series consisting of discrete bursts or avalanches separated by waiting or silent times. The short time correlations can be understood to follow from the properties of individual avalanches, while longer time correlations often present in such signals reflect correlations between triggerings of different avalanches. As one possible source of the latter kind of correlations in experimental time series, we consider the effect of a finite detection threshold, due to e.g. experimental noise that needs to be removed. To this end, we study a simple toy model of an avalanche, a random walk returning to the origin or a Brownian bridge, in the presence and absence of superimposed delta-correlated noise. We discuss the properties after thresholding of artificial timeseries obtained by mixing toy avalanches and waiting times from a Poisson process. Most of the resulting scalings for individual avalanches and the composite timeseries can be understood via random walk theory, except for the waiting time distributions when strong additional noise is added. Then, to compare with a more complicated case we study the Manna sandpile model of self-organized criticality, where some further complications appear.

Configuring topic in the left periphery: a case of Chicheŵa split NPs
Creators: name: Mchombo, Sam A.
name: Morimoto, Yukiko
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: Chicheŵa, a Bantu language of East Central Africa, displays mixed properties of configurationality such as the existence of VP, on the one hand, and discontinuous constituents (DCs), on the other. In the present work we examine the discourse and syntactic properties of DCs, and show that DCs in Chicheŵa arise naturally from the discourse-configurational nature of the language. We argue that the fronted DCs in Chicheŵa are contrastive topics that appear in a leftdislocated external topic position, with the remnant part of the split NP in the right-dislocated topic position. Once the precise discourse functions of DCs are properly integrated into the syntactic analysis, all the facts and restrictions observed in Chicheŵa DCs can be explained in a straightforward fashion.

Discontinuity and discourse structure: stranded nominals as asserted background topics
Creators: name: Mathieu, Eric
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: The aim of this paper is to investigate Rizzi's (2001) recent claim that in combien constructions full movement correlates with a specific or D-linking interpretation of the nominal (see also Obenauer, 1994) while the in-situ option corresponds to focus of the noun. On the one hand, it is argued that the notion of specificity or D-linking for the raised nominal is too strong while on the other hand it is shown that the stranded nominal is not a focus, but a topic, albeit of a special kind. It is also argued that there is a dedicated postverbal position for this kind of topic and that the nominal has all the properties of an incorporated nominal: it is interpreted as an asserted background topic. In the final part of the article, some time is spent discussing the pragmatics and the modality involved in discontinous structures, and showing that the stranded nominal is interpreted inside the VP/below the event variable.

On the correlative nature of Hungarian left-peripheral relatives
Creators: name: Lipták, Anikó
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: This paper takes a close look at the properties of Hungarian relative clauses that occur in the left periphery of the main clause, preceding a (pro)nominal associate. It will be shown that these left-peripheral relative clauses differ in many ways from relative clauses dislocated on the right periphery, as well as from relative clauses embedded under a (pro)nominal head. To capture the precise syntax of these left-peripheral clauses, these will be compared to ordinary left-dislocated items, with which they have some properties in common. Despite the surface similarities between the two, however, there are a few decisive aspects of behaviour, most notably, distributional properties and connectivity effects, which argue against taking left-peripheral relatives as cases of clausal left-dislocates in Hungarian. Instead, one is led to consider these as correlative clauses, on the basis of the properties they share with well-established correlatives in languages like Hindi.

description: Abstract: When modelling urban expansion dynamics, cellular automata models focus mostly on the physical environments and cell neighbours, but ignore the ‘human’ aspect of the allocation of urban expansion cells. This limitation is overcome here using an intelligent self-adapting multiscale agent-based model. To simulate the urban expansion of Auckland, New Zealand, a total of 15 urban expansion drivers/constraints were considered over two periods (2000–2005, 2005–2010). The modelling takes into consideration both a macro-scale agent (government) and micro-scale agents (residents of three income levels), and their multi-level interactions. In order to achieve reliable simulation results, ABM was coupled with an artificial neural network to reveal the learning process and heterogeneity of the multi-sub-residential agents. The ANN-ABM accurately simulated the urban expansion of Auckland at both the global and local scales, with kappa simulation value at 0.48 and 0.55, respectively. The validated simulation result shows that the intelligent and self-adapting ANN-ABM approach is more accurate than an ABM with a general type of agent model (kappa simulation = 0.42) at the global scale, and more accurate than an ANN-based CA model (kappa simulation = 0.47) at the local scale. Simulation inaccuracy stems mostly from the outdated master land use plan.

Gaugino versus Sfermion Masses in Gauge Mediation

description: A well-known signature of supersymmetry breaking scenarios with ordinary gauge mediation is a universal formula governing gaugino and sfermion masses such that their ratio is of order one. On the other hand, recently studied models with direct gauge mediation predict anomalously small ratios of gaugino to scalar masses. It was argued that the smallness of gaugino masses is a consequence of being in the lowest energy state of the SUSY-breaking low energy effective theory. To increase gaugino masses one either has to move to higher metastable vacuum or alternatively remain in the original SUSY-breaking vacuum but extend the theory by introducing a lower-lying vacuum elsewhere. We follow the latter strategy and show that the ratio of gaugino to sfermion masses can be continuously varied between zero and of order one by bringing in a lower vacuum from infinity. We argue that the stability of the vacuum is directly linked to the ratio between the gaugino masses and the underlying SUSY-breaking scale, i.e. the gravitino mass.

description: This study presents the evaluation of a computer-based learning program for children with developmental dyscalculia and focuses on factors affecting individual responsiveness. The adaptive training program Calcularis 2.0 has been developed according to current neuro-cognitive theory of numerical cognition. It aims to automatize number representations, supports the formation and access to the mental number line and trains arithmetic operations as well as arithmetic fact knowledge in expanding number ranges. Sixty-seven children with developmental dyscalculia from second to fifth grade (mean age 8.96 years) were randomly assigned to one of two groups (Calcularis group, waiting control group). Training duration comprised a minimum of 42 training sessions à 20 min within a maximum period of 13 weeks. Compared to the waiting control group, children of the Calcularis group demonstrated a higher benefit in arithmetic operations and number line estimation. These improvements were shown to be stable after a 3-months post training interval. In addition, this study examines which predictors accounted for training improvements. Results indicate that this self-directed training was especially beneficial for children with low math anxiety scores and without an additional reading and/or spelling disorder. In conclusion, Calcularis 2.0 supports children with developmental dyscalculia to improve their arithmetical abilities and their mental number line representation. However, it is relevant to further adapt the setting to the individual circumstances.

description: Consider the linear stochastic differential equation (SDE) on $\mathbb{R}^n$: \[\mathrm {d}{X}_t=AX_t\,\mathrm{d}t+B\,\mathrm{d}L_t,\] where $A$ is a real $n\times n$ matrix, $B$ is a real $n\times d$ real matrix and $L_t$ is a Lévy process with Lévy measure $ν$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$. Assume that $ν(\mathrm {d}{z})\ge ρ_0(z)\,\mathrm{d}z$ for some $ρ_0\ge 0$. If $A\le 0,\operatorname {Rank}(B)=n$ and $\int_{\{|z-z_0|\le\varepsilon\}}ρ_0(z)^{-1}\,\mathrm{d}z0$, then the associated Markov transition probability $P_t(x,\mathrm {d}{y})$ satisfies \[\|P_t(x,\cdot)-P_t(y,\cdot)\|_{\mathrm{var}}\le \frac{C(1+|x-y|)}{\sqrt{t}}, x,y\in \mathbb{R}^d,t>0,\] for some constant $C>0$, which is sharp for large $t$ and implies that the process has successful couplings. The Harnack inequality, ultracontractivity and the strong Feller property are also investigated for the (conditional) transition semigroup.

description: We present new V and R-passband CCD photometry of UU Sge and V477 Lyr, the eclipsing binary nuclei of the planetary nebulae Abell 63 and Abell 46, respectively. We have performed a simultaneous analysis of VR light-curves and estimated the effective temperatures for the primary and secondary stars to be 78 000 $\pm$ 3000 and 6136 $\pm$ 240 K for UU Sge, 49 500 $\pm$ 4500 and 3874 $\pm$ 350 K for V477 Lyr. We have also reanalysed the previously measured radial velocities and combined the results with those obtained from the analysis of the light curves to derive absolute parameters of the components. The secondary stars have larger radii than expected from their main--sequence counterparts at the same masses. We have determined the post--common envelope ages and the thermal time scales of the systems and examined the possible reasons of expanded radius of the secondary components, together with some selected post-common envelope binaries. We conclude that the secondary components of the nuclei of the planetary nebulae are still out of thermal equilibrium along with two post-common envelope systems: HS 1136+6646 and RE 1016-053. For other systems, magnetic activity has been suggested as the more plausible reason for their expanded radii. We have also estimated the common--envelope efficiency parameters of UU Sge and V477 Lyr.

description: Let $T$ be a $\R$-tree in the boundary of the Outer Space CV$_N$, with dense orbits. The $Q$-index of $T$ is defined by means of the dual lamination of $T$. It is a generalisation of the Euler-Poincaré index of a foliation on a surface. We prove that the $Q$-index of $T$ is bounded above by $2N-2$, and we study the case of equality. The main tool is to develop the Rips Machine in order to deal with systems of isometries on compact $\R$-trees. Combining our results on the $\CQ$-index with results on the classical geometric index of a tree, we obtain a beginning of classification of trees. As a consequence, we give a classification of iwip outer automorphisms of the free group, by discussing the properties of their attracting and repelling trees.

description: We study the average separation between an elastic solid and a hard solid with a nominal flat but randomly rough surface, as a function of the squeezing pressure. We present experimental results for a silicon rubber (PDMS) block with a flat surface squeezed against an asphalt road surface. The theory shows that an effective repulse pressure act between the surfaces of the form p proportional to exp(-u/u0), where u is the average separation between the surfaces and u0 a constant of order the root-mean-square roughness, in good agreement with the experimental results.

Topic and focus at the peripheries: the dynamics of tree growth
Creators: name: Kempson, Ruth M.

Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: In this paper topic and focus effects at both left and right periphery are argued to be epiphenomena of general properties of tree growth. We incorporate Korean into this account as a prototypical verb-final language, and show how long- and short-distance scrambling form part of this general picture. Multiple long-distance scrambling effects emerge as a consequence of the feeding relationship between different forms of structural under-specification. We also show how the array of effects at the right periphery, in both verb-final and other language-types, can also be explained with the same concepts of tree growth. In particular the Right Roof Constraint, a well-known but little understood constraint, is an immediate consequence of compositionality constraints as articulated in this system.

The force of gravity in Schwarzschild and Gullstrand-Painlevé coordinates

description: We derive the exact equations of motion (in Newtonian, F=ma, form) for test masses in Schwarzschild and Gullstrand-Painlevé coordinates. These equations of motion are simpler than the usual geodesic equations obtained from Christoffel tensors in that the affine parameter is eliminated. The various terms can be compared against tests of gravity. In force form, gravity can be interpreted as resulting from a flux of superluminal particles (gravitons). We show that the first order relativistic correction to Newton's gravity results from a two graviton interaction.

How the left-periphery of a wh-relative clause determines its syntactic and semantic relationships
Creators: name: Holler, Anke
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: This paper discusses a certain class of German relative clauses which are characterized by a wh-expression overtly realized at the left periphery of the clause. While investigating empirical and theoretical issues regarding this class of relatives, it argues that a wh-relative clause relates syntactically to a functionally complete sentential projection and semantically to entities of various kinds that are abstracted from the matrix clause. What is shown is that this grammatical behaviour clearly can be attributed to the properties of the elements positioned at the left of a wh-relative clause. Finally, a lexically-based analysis couched in the framework of HPSG is given that accounts for the data presented.

Complexity Through Interaction: An investigation into the spontaneous development of collective musical ideas from simple thematic materials
Creators: name: Haywood, Nicholas
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023
Subjects: Music performance

description: The purpose of this research is to investigate and describe the optimum conditions under which collaborative improvised musical expression in performance can be established. This study is an exhaustive examination of selected performances of an ensemble in which I perform. This ensemble was newly formed, specifically for this research study. The research investigates the impact of the ensemble dynamic on the improvisations of each individual within the ensemble and the way in which this affects and informs my own playing. Performances and recordings by this ensemble are used as the basis of the research presented in the accompanying exegesis. The weighting of this project is 80% folio and 20% exegesis. The recordings have not been analysed in the traditional harmonic, melodic and rhythmic manner as the focus of this study is on the way in which musicians connect at an intuitive level. The manner in which each participant’s contributions affect their co-­‐performers has been analysed and discussed. Aural perception and the collective and individual musical history of the participants are seen as significant factors and as such have been investigated through interviews. It is proposed that a musician’s familiarity with repertoire should be such that conscious decision making in performance becomes redundant. In fact, it is felt that the need to deliberately think about both physical and material requirements of music making, when playing, is a hindrance to high quality musical performance, both during improvisation and interpretation of pre-­‐composed materials. To this end, there is a need to separate the manner in which a musician accumulates musical knowledge via practice, from the way they present music, as a performer. The study explores this important relationship in the context of the case study of the project album. These issues have also been examined with a view to offering some insight into the mindset and methods that best support the development of high-­level improvisation and interpretive skills.
On the syntax and pragmatics interface: left-peripheral, medial and right-peripheral focus in Greek
Creators: name: Haidou, Konstantina
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: The present paper explores the extent to which narrow syntax is responsible for the computation of discourse functions such as focus/topic. More specifically, it challenges the claim that language approximates ‘perfection’ with respect to economy, conceptual necessity and optimality in design by reconsidering the roles and interactions of the different modules of the grammar, in particular of syntax and phonology and the mapping between the two, in the representation of pragmatic notions. Empirical and theoretical considerations strongly indicate that narrow syntax is ‘blind’ to properties and operations involving the interpretive components — that is, PF and LF. As a result, syntax-phonology interface rules do not ‘see’ everything in the levels they connect. In essence, the architecture of grammar proposed here from the perspective of focus marking necessitates the autonomy of the different levels of grammar, presupposing that NS is minimally structured only when liberated from any non-syntactic/discourse implementations, i.e., movement operations to satisfy both interface needs. As a result, the model articulated here totally dispenses with discourse projections, i.e. FocusP.

Topicalization, CLLD and the left periphery
Creators: name: Haegeman, Liliane M. V.
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2004

description: Starting from a consideration of the internal make-up of adverbial clauses this paper shows that the widespread assumption that fronted arguments in English and CLLD constituents in Romance occupy the same position leads to a number of problems. I will conclude that the position occupied by English topicalized arguments differs from that of the CLLD topics in Romance. In particular, English topics occupy a higher position in the left periphery. The final part of the paper compares three proposals for the lower topic position in Romance.

Anomalous quantum transport in a thin film

description: We present a numerical study of electron transport in a thin film of varying disorder strength with the distance from its surface. A simple tight-binding model is used to describe the system, in which the film is attached to two metallic electrodes and the coupling of this film to the electrodes is illustrated by the Newns-Anderson chemisorption theory. Quite interestingly we observe that, in the smoothly varying disordered film current amplitude increases with the increase of disorder strength in the strong disorder regime, while it decreases in the weak disorder regime. This behavior is completely opposite from a conventional disordered film, where current amplitude always decreases with the increase of disorder strength.

new approach to the scope of contrastive topics

description: This paper proposes a new strategy for accounting for the narrow scope readings of quantificational contrastive topics in Hungarian, which is based on a consideration of the types of questions that declaratives with such contrastive topics can be uttered as partial or complete congruent answers to. The meaning of the declaratives with contrastive topics will be represented with the help of the structured meaning approach to matching questions proposed in Krifka 2002.

description: Recent measurements of nucleon resonance transition form factors with CLAS at Jefferson Lab are discussed. The new data confirm the assertion of the symmetric constituent quark model of the Roper as the first radial excitation of the nucleon. For the first time, the longitudinal transition amplitude to the S11(1535) was extracted from the data. New results on the transition amplitudes for the D13(1520) resonance are presented showing a rapid transition from helicity 3/2 dominance seen at the real photon point to helicity 1/2 dominance at higher Q2. I also discuss aspects of the JLab program to search for new excited nucleon states predicted by quark models.

description: We present a detailed infrared study of the insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) in vanadium dioxide (VO2) thin films. Conventional infrared spectroscopy was employed to investigate the IMT in the far-field. Scanning near-field infrared microscopy directly revealed the percolative IMT with increasing temperature. We confirmed that the phase transition is also percolative with cooling across the IMT. We present extensive near-field infrared images of phase coexistence in the IMT regime in VO2. We find that the coexisting insulating and metallic regions at a fixed temperature are static on the time scale of our measurements. A novel approach for analyzing the far-field and near-field infrared data within the Bruggeman effective medium theory was employed to extract the optical constants of the incipient metallic puddles at the onset of the IMT. We found divergent effective carrier mass in the metallic puddles that demonstrates the importance of electronic correlations to the IMT in VO2. We employ the extended dipole model for a quantitative analysis of the observed near-field infrared amplitude contrast and compare the results with those obtained with the basic dipole model.
