Paesaggio rurale e turismo sostenibile nella Valtiberina Toscana
Creators: name: Cinti, Daniela
Publisher: name: Ri-Vista
Year: 2015

description: Rural landscape attracts more and more often new forms of tourism, alternatives to the traditional ones. The visit to a region, expressing its naturalness and its local culture, does indeed enrich the tourist with new experiences that complete the itineraries within historical towns. The delicate relationship between landscape and utilisation of open land has been therefore the leading thread of the research that promotes a multifunctional rural economy (touristic/agricultural/zootechnical), together with an appreciation of the value and identity of these places. The resulting action field has been articulated in two level: the first refers to places of historical and naturalistic interest and to those with touristic potentialities; while the second focuses on ordinary places that are the settings to sites of “excellence” and to excursion routes. The increase in value of the countryside has been centred on two different landscapes: those of high touristic interest and the ordinary ones.

description: We selected the claim that affective response to COVID-19 may predict loneliness. This reflects the following statement from the paper’s abstract: “The cross-lagged influence of the initial affective response to COVID-19 on subsequent levels of loneliness was also found.” The cross-lagged effects between variables were investigated using a two-wave autoregressive cross-lagged panel model (CLPM), which allowed the authors to examine directional effects of one variable on another over the time, while accounting for the stability of each variable and their correlations at each time point. This analysis yielded a crossed-lagged effect of the initial COVID-19 affective response on loneliness levels during W2 (beta = .251, p = .002). The focal test in the original paper is: A crossed-lagged effect of the initial COVID-19 affective response on loneliness levels during W2 (beta = .251, p = .002).

description: The Chianti’s landscape - which is the result of a complex mix of cultural, historical, environmental, socio-economic, scenic values that have designed a unique context - plays a strategic role in processes of growth and local development. In particular, new forms of multifunctional agriculture (integrated with touristic and commercial activities) and sustainable tourism, that rest on the environmental and cultural resources, can act both for the creation and protection of the cultural landscape.

Correlates and Costs of Childcare Arrangements Following a First Birth
Creators: name: Browne, Alyssa
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: This paper provides analysis of the correlates and relative costs of different childcare arrangements among families of women who experience their first birth (the transition to parenthood). I use data from the 2001, 2004, and 2008 Surveys of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) to analyze the sociodemographic correlates of using different childcare arrangements (majority parental, majority relative, majority formal, and mixed). I also examine the relative costs associated with these different childcare arrangements. Multinomial logistic regression suggests that mother’s pre-birth employment and earnings, household structure, and the receipt of government subsidies are associated with childcare decisions following a first birth. Results of first difference analysis suggest changes in net family income following a first birth vary by income groups and types of childcare used.

Approximate Projection Methods for Decentralized Optimization with Functional Constraints

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We consider distributed convex optimization problems that involve a separable objective function and nontrivial functional constraints, such as Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). We propose a decentralized and computationally inexpensive algorithm which is based on the concept of approximate projections. Our algorithm is one of the consensus based methods in that, at every iteration, each agent performs a consensus update of its decision variables followed by an optimization step of its local objective function and local constraints. Unlike other methods, the last step of our method is not an Euclidean projection onto the feasible set, but instead a subgradient step in the direction that minimizes the local constraint violation. We propose two different averaging schemes to mitigate the disagreements among the agents' local estimates. We show that the algorithms converge almost surely, i.e., every agent agrees on the same optimal solution, under the assumption that the objective functions and constraint functions are nondifferentiable and their subgradients are bounded. We provide simulation results on a decentralized optimal gossip averaging problem, which involves SDP constraints, to complement our theoretical results.

description: After the discovery of rings around the largest known Centaur object, (10199) Chariklo, we carried out observation campaigns of stellar occultations produced by the second-largest known Centaur object, (2060) Chiron, to better characterize its physical properties and presence of material on its surroundings. We predicted and successfully observed two stellar occultations by Chiron. These observations were used to constrain its size and shape by fitting elliptical limbs with equivalent surface radii in agreement with radiometric measurements. Constraints on the (2060) Chiron shape are reported for the first time. Assuming an equivalent radius of R$_{equiv}$ = 105$^{+6}_{-7}$ km, we obtained a semi-major axis of a = 126 $\pm$ 22 km. Considering Chiron's true rotational light curve amplitude and assuming it has a Jacobi equilibrium shape, we were able to derive a 3D shape with a semi-axis of a = 126 $\pm$ 22 km, b = 109 $\pm$ 19 km, and c = 68 $\pm$ 13 km, implying in a volume-equivalent radius of R$_{vol}$ = 98 $\pm$ 17 km, implying a density of 1119 $\pm$ 4 kg m$^{-3}$. We determined the physical properties of the 2011 secondary events around Chiron, which may then be directly compared with those of Chariklo rings, as the same method was used. Data obtained from SAAO in 2018 do not show unambiguous evidence of the proposed rings, mainly due to the large sampling time. Meanwhile, we discarded the possible presence of a permanent ring similar to (10199) Chariklo's C1R in optical depth and extension. Using the first multi-chord stellar occultation by (2060) Chiron and considering it to have a Jacobi equilibrium shape, we derived its 3D shape. New observations of a stellar occultation by (2060) Chiron are needed to further investigate the material's properties around Chiron, such as the occultation predicted for September 10, 2023.

description: Let $τ_1^{(r)}$, $τ_2^{(r)}$ be two genuine cuspidal automorphic representations on $r$-fold covers of the adelic points of the general linear groups $GL_{n_1}$, $GL_{n_2}$, resp., and let $E(g,s)$ be the associated Eisenstein series on an $r$-fold cover of $GL_{n_1+n_2}$. Then the value or residue at any point $s=s_0$ of $E(g,s)$ is an automorphic form, and generates an automorphic representation. In this note we show that if $n_1\neq n_2$ these automorphic representations (when not identically zero) are generic, while if $n_1=n_2:=n$ they are generic except for residues at $s=\frac{n\pm1}{2n}$.

description: This article tells the story of a monument and a landscape, the adventures lived by both and their repeated re-discoveries by a group of people delegated for their restoration. After deep surveys and participated meetings, after many periods of works and long staying in that place, that group decided that it wasn’t satisfactory to restore the monument, but it was needed to make it live again, in our contemporaneous time, as it was a living being. Moreover, this article proposes a suggestion: the “farm-hotel”, an innovative instrument to promote sustainable tourism, starting from the historical country to the cities.

Testing theory on the ecology and evolution of complex life cycles
Creators: name: RICHARDSON, EMILY LYNN
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Evolutionary ecology

description: Complex life cycles have intrigued ecologists for decades. Animals like frogs, caterpillars, fish and sea stars transform their morphology through distinct phases, and these transitions expose the individual to new habitats, food resources, competitors and predators. To understand the evolution of complex life cycles, a number of theoretical models have been developed, but empirical tests of their assumptions remain rare. In my thesis, I test assumptions from a few theories, including a unifying model from Earl Werner. I find support for some assumptions, but not others, highlighting the need for future empirical work to update theory.

Static black holes with axial symmetry in asymptotically AdS$_4$ spacetime

description: The known static electro-vacuum black holes in a globally AdS$_4$ background have an event horizon which is geometrically a round sphere. In this work we argue that the situation is different in models with matter fields possessing an explicit dependence on the azimuthal angle $φ$, which, however, does not manifest at the level of the energy-momentum tensor. As a result, the full solutions are axially symmetric only, possessing a single (timelike) Killing vector field. Explicit examples of such static black holes are constructed in Einstein--(complex) scalar field and Einstein--Yang-Mills theories. The basic properties of these solutions are discussed, looking for generic features. For example, we notice that the horizon has an oblate spheroidal shape for solutions with a scalar field and a prolate one for black holes with Yang-Mills fields. The deviation from sphericity of the horizon geometry manifests itself in the holographic stress-tensor. Finally, based on the results obtained in the probe limit, we conjecture the existence in the Einstein-Maxwell theory of static black holes with axial symmetry only.

The Relationship Between Hop Biomechanics, Functional Performance, and Talar Cartilage Deformation in Healthy Individuals
Creators: name: Stroup, Devon Nicole
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Lateral ankle sprains are a very common injury in sport, however often go underreported and mismanaged. This leads to a cascade of events including chronic ankle instability (CAI) development. People with CAI often exhibit altered biomechanics, as well as degenerative joint changes when compared to healthy individuals that can lead to post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). It is unknown if biomechanics are linked to cartilage deformation, which stands as a sensitive marker for joint health and PTOA development.  Research is also limited in ultrasound sensitivity to talar cartilage deformation after loading.  Before identifying this relationship and establishing ultrasound as a sensitive imaging technique of deformation in pathologic individuals, we must first investigate healthy individuals. Therefore, our overall purpose is to determine how talar cartilage deforms in healthy individuals after a standardized single leg hopping loading protocol, and to explore how hop biomechanics and functional performance influence deformation after this protocol.

description: We report on high-resolution spectroscopy of the 2009.0 spectroscopic event of $η$ Carinae collected via SMARTS observations using the CTIO 1.5 m telescope and echelle spectrograph. Our observations were made almost every night over a two-month interval around the photometric minimum of $η$ Car associated with the periastron passage of a hot companion. The photoionizing flux of the companion and heating related to colliding winds causes large changes in the wind properties of the massive primary star. Here we present an analysis of temporal variations in a sample of spectral lines that are clearly formed in the wind of the primary star. These lines are affected by a changing illumination of the flux of the secondary star during the periastron passage. We document the sudden onset of blue-shifted absorption that occurred in most of the lines near or slightly after periastron, and we argue that these absorption components are seen when we view the relatively undisturbed wind of the foreground primary star. We present time series measurements of the net equivalent width of the wind lines and of the radial velocities of the absorption trough minima and the emission peak midpoints. Most lines decrease in emission strength around periastron, and those high excitation lines formed close to the primary exhibit a red-ward velocity excursion. We show how these trends can be explained using an illuminated hemisphere model that is based on the idea that the emission originates primarily from the side of the primary facing the hot companion.

description: The tourism forms raise doubts about their capacity to be sustainable, especially compared against the landscape and the local society. Through a survey on the history of the tourism process in Sardinia and the analysis of some case studies we try to understand if instead is possible to imagine new forms of tourism. Sardinia itself is as an ideal place to study issues related to tourism, as along its coast, within fifty years, has developed a real tourist town, different in different places but with the characteristic of being always been guided by what is called a tourism ideology. The article questions whether it is possible, although within contexts compromised by tourism ideology , to find new forms of tourism capable of regenerating the relationship between them, the landscape and local societies.

description: The critical implications for the landscape which have been caused by seaside tourism are today evident along the Euro-Mediterranean coastal areas. This typology of demand for tourism, consolidating since the second half of the twentieth century, deeply alterated the coasts of Spain, France and Italy. The value and vulnerability of Euro-Mediterranean coastal landscapes as well as the expected growth of the number of tourists along these areas, highlight the need to develop policies able to manage such phenomenon, also by way of an enhancement of alternative tourism typologies. This is the main objective of the policies developed in the context of three Protected Landscapes situated along the Euro-Mediterranean coast, explicitly aimed at identifying specific forms of integration between tourism development and landscape conservation.

False Forms and Wicked Women: Apuleius’ Isis Book and Ovid’s Iphis Story
Creators: name: Eisenlohr, Sarah H.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: In this thesis, I take a new approach to the study of Isis in Apuleius’ Golden Ass by comparing the novel to the story of Iphis written by Ovid in the Metamorphoses. I begin by reviewing the history of Isiac worship in the Roman world and previous research on Isis’ role in Apuleius. I then move on to a detailed study of literary allusions between the Golden Ass and Ovid’s Iphis story. From there, I explore the literary evidence concerning Isiac ethics and use my findings to analyze further the two texts at hand. I argue that both Apuleius and Ovid use Isis to mitigate the effects of dishonorable conduct in their narratives, especially that of a sexual nature. In each story, Isis ensures that her followers avoid behavior that disrupts communal and familial life, ultimately reinforcing traditional morality and social norms.

description: Contract automata allow to formally define the behaviour of service contracts in terms of service offers and requests, some of which are moreover optional and some of which are necessary. A composition of contracts is said to be in agreement if all service requests are matched by corresponding offers. Whenever a composition of contracts is not in agreement, it can be refined to reach an agreement using the orchestration synthesis algorithm. This algorithm is a variant of the synthesis algorithm used in supervisory control theory and it is based on the fact that optional transitions are controllable, whereas necessary transitions are at most semi-controllable and cannot always be controlled. In fact, the resulting orchestration is such that as much of the behaviour in agreement is maintained. In this paper, we discuss recent developments of the orchestration synthesis algorithm for contract automata. Notably, we present a refined notion of semi-controllability and compare it with the original notion by means of examples. We then discuss the current limits of the orchestration synthesis algorithm and identify a number of research challenges together with a research roadmap.

description: The volume “The Landscape”, edited by the geographer Aldo Sestini in 1963 in the collection dedicated to Italy of the Italian Touring Club, represents the first original attempt of a careful description-interpretation of Italian Landscapes, classified in 95 types (grouped in 9 forms), on the basis of geological, morphological and climatic factors. The work deserves nowadays to be “reused” for “active” aims, such as geography teaching, landscape education, realization of cultural itineraries for tourist aims, editing of detailed monographs of of local landscape units. The new functions demand the integration of historical analysis with the geographical one, to build index maps shared and suitable to give substance to landscape planning tools, as defined by the Codice dei Beni Culturali e del Paesaggio.

description: Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and let $\mathbb{Q}(3^\infty)$ be the compositum of all cubic extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$. In this article we show that the torsion subgroup of $E(\mathbb{Q}(3^\infty))$ is finite and determine 20 possibilities for its structure, along with a complete description of the $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-isomorphism classes of elliptic curves that fall into each case. We provide rational parameterizations for each of the 16 torsion structures that occur for infinitely many $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-isomorphism classes of elliptic curves, and a complete list of $j$-invariants for each of the 4 that do not.

Models of Neutrino Mass, Mixing and CP Violation
Creators: name: King, Stephen F.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this topical review we argue that neutrino mass and mixing data motivates extending the Standard Model to include a non-Abelian discrete flavour symmetry in order to accurately predict the large leptonic mixing angles and CP violation. We begin with an overview of the Standard Model puzzles, followed by a description of some classic lepton mixing patterns. Lepton mixing may be regarded as a deviation from tri-bimaximal mixing, with charged lepton corrections leading to solar mixing sum rules, or tri-maximal lepton mixing leading to atmospheric mixing rules. We survey neutrino mass models, using a roadmap based on the open questions in neutrino physics. We then focus on the seesaw mechanism with right-handed neutrinos, where sequential dominance (SD) can account for large lepton mixing angles and CP violation, with precise predictions emerging from constrained SD (CSD). We define the flavour problem and discuss progress towards a theory of flavour using GUTs and discrete family symmetry. We classify models as direct, semidirect or indirect, according to the relation between the Klein symmetry of the mass matrices and the discrete family symmetry, in all cases focussing on spontaneous CP violation. Finally we give two examples of realistic and highly predictive indirect models with CSD, namely an A to Z of flavour with Pati-Salam and a fairly complete $A_4\times SU(5)$ SUSY GUT of flavour, where both models have interesting implications for leptogenesis.

Paesaggio e Biodiversità

description: Coming from the United Nations Organization Conference in Rio (1992), about environment and development, the biodiversity value in front of sustainability is universally recognised. On the contrary, the biodiversity influences on the landscapes construction are not so clear, as well as the landscapes features importance toward biodiversity and resources conservation. But Biodiversity and landscape heterogeneity together, contribute to the information exchange inside the populations and to the local perception. So they affect our choices, being able to orient the personal behaviours and the communities ones. Therefore diversity is involved into cognitive and cultural processes of the human population. The understanding of the links between landscape and the different biodiversity levels, is critical in order to arrange effective governance tools, oriented on an environmental, economic and social sustainability, based on the real resources that the high quality landscapes can conserve and reproduce.

description: Although outcomes of complex coevolutionary interactions, landscape and biodiversity are often addressed by separated policies. Which role is played by the new concept of landscape introduced by the European Landscape Convention in reshaping biodiversity and nature conservation approaches within policies? Some answers are suggested in the following pages, moving from the analysis of the National Biodiversity and Action Plans of the EU Member States.

description: With the COVID-19 outbreak imposing stay at home and social distancing policies, warnings about the impact of lockdown and its economic consequences on domestic violence has surged. This paper disentangles the effect of forced coexistence and economic stress on intimate partner violence. Using an online survey data set, we find a 23% increase of intimate partner violence during the lockdown. Our results indicate that the impact of economic consequences is twice as large as the impact of lockdown. We also find a large increase of domestic violence when the relative position of the man worsens, especially in contexts where that position was already being threatened. We view our results as consistent with the male backlash and emotional cue effects.
“Native only”. Un dibattito millenario pro e contro l’uso di vegetazione esotica nel progetto di paesaggio, alla luce del rapporto tra biodiversità e diversità paesistica
Creators: name: Cassatella, Claudia
Publisher: name: Ri-Vista
Year: 2015

description: The social perception of the increasing uniformity of the landscape and of the loss of biodiversity has led to a demand for greater naturalness by the landscape project. Sometimes this results in "native only" policies and urban regulations. At the same time, "diversity" (in all its forms) is a success concept, and the appreciation of the "different" that is in our own landscape, such as species not native but sometimes “rooted”, is increasing. The article concerns the reasons for and against the use of native/exotic vegetation, and discusses the cultural backgrounds, as well as scientific reference models. The many paradoxes, which result from the more restrictive attitude, lead to conclude that the appropriate species is a definition, not given by abstract rules.

description: We measure primordial alignments for the red galaxies in the sample of eight massive galaxy clusters in the southern sky from the CLASH-VLT Large Programme, at a median redshift of 0.375. We find primordial alignment with about $3σ$ significance in the four dynamically young clusters, but null detection of primordial alignment in the four highly relaxed clusters. The observed primordial alignment is not dominated by any single one of the four dynamically young clusters, and is primarily due to a population of bright galaxies ($M_r

“Russia will Triumph Over the Whole World”: Ekaterina Pavlovna’s Letters and Nationalist Thought in the Tver Historical Museum
Creators: name: Cavallaro, Albert Charles
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: This thesis investigates the ways in which Russian provincial public museums functioned socially, ideologically, and historically during the second half of the 19th century. Using the Tver Historical Museum, which opened on August 9, 1866, as a case study, this paper shows the museum’s involvement in the state’s growing endorsement of ethnic Russian or Great Russian nationalism, and provides insights into the provincial conception of the relationship between the provincial localities, the metropolitan center, and the broader empire. Utilizing a variety of sources published by the museum, this paper expands previous accounts of the history of museums inside Russia, which have focused on developments in Moscow and St. Petersburg, while also building on the growing field of local studies in Russian history. This thesis reveals the Tver Historical Museum’s involvement in the transformation of Russian political imagination from one of monarchical-tsarist dominance to one of national-imperial aspirations.

description: Ecosystems are an irreplaceable support for a region’s quality of life, thanks to the goods and services that they provide (ecosystem services). These ecosystem services can be assessed in economic terms, considering the economic weight of natural capital in resources management and in landscape planning (e.g. strategic plans, rural development plans) and recognizing the crucial role of those territories that have natural resources and a sustainable strategic planning. This approach can be translated in a territorial equalization between those territories that consume natural resources and those that produce them.

description: In the last 50 years urban land conversion had an evident and undeniable acceleration. Nowadays it's not possible giving the reliable measurement of the state due to a chronic lack of knowledge at every territorial level, from the national to the municipal. The major problem is the absence of a clean border between urbanized areas and countryside, unlike other northern European Countries. This paper present the results in progress of the research about urban increasing in Italian regions in the last mid century. Several statistical elaboration show some effect and trends on landscape structure.
