Church of S. Nicholas, Lockington

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 23, 316-323
description: A few copies of the plan of the church of S. Nicholas at Lockington were distributed to members who attended the excursion to Loughborough and this church on 9th July, 1947, and it was later decided by the Publications Committee to reproduce this record in the current issue of our Transactions. The church, probably one of the most neglected in the whole Diocese, is happily now having some attention and being reconditioned with such help, financial and other, as has become available. There is, admittedly, always this to be said in the case of a church which has had practically no restoration (the term used in its broadest sense) that many items and features present themselves in their pristine condition, and that many which might have been ruthlessly swept away exhibit the original tooling and technique, the personal touch, which gives to all old work individual character and charm. Here, such treatment has not been indulged in or the ancient remains mutilated to render the interior devoid of that attraction which should always be met with. It is true that in the case of Lockington the chancel received a certain amount of structural attention during the last century, but little has been done beyond this, since the present church was built.

description: Let $ R $ be a $ d $-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay (CM) local ring of minimal multiplicity. Set $ S := R/({\bf f}) $, where $ {\bf f} := f_1,\ldots,f_c $ is an $ R $-regular sequence. Suppose $ M $ and $ N $ are maximal CM $ S $-modules. It is shown that if $ \mathrm{Ext}_S^i(M,N) = 0 $ for some $ (d+c+1) $ consecutive values of $ i \geqslant 2 $, then $ \mathrm{Ext}_S^i(M,N) = 0 $ for all $ i \geqslant 1 $. Moreover, if this holds true, then either $ \mathrm{projdim}_R(M) $ or $ \mathrm{injdim}_R(N) $ is finite. In addition, a counterpart of this result for Tor-modules is provided. Furthermore, we give a number of necessary and sufficient conditions for a CM local ring of minimal multiplicity to be regular or Gorenstein. These conditions are based on vanishing of certain Exts or Tors involving homomorphic images of syzygy modules of the residue field.

description: В статье анализируется судебная практика новых кассационных судов общей юрисдикции (КСОЮ) по уголовным делам за 2018–2020 гг. В качестве эмпирического материала автором использованы данные Судебного департамента при Верховном Суде Российской Федерации. Анализ статистики по уголовным делам в новых КСОЮ позволяет выявить основные проблемы в эффективности данных судов. На основе сведений, опубликованных на официальных сайтах судебных органов, автору удалось определить количество поступивших на рассмотрение в каждых из них дел и выявить основные тенденции распределения рабочей нагрузки на судебные округа. При проведении научного анализа учитывалась незначительная продолжительность существования КСОЮ, поэтому выводы носят предварительный характер и позволяют наметить ряд мер превентивного характера, направленных на устранение недостатков реформы кассационных судов. Особое внимание в статье уделяется анализу влияния коронавирусной пандемии на процессуальную практику и перспективам дальнейшего развития системы кассации в стране.

description: Researchers have long suggested that animals with greater behavioural flexibility will be more likely to survive in face of environmental changes. However, it is unknown how this varies across species. Nest building is a behaviour directly related to the reproduction and survival of species by conferring protection from external environmental conditions. The study of nests offers a window into the behaviour of birds, and variation in nest morphology is necessarily linked to variation in building behaviours. We test whether variation in nest morphology is phylogenetically conserved by using data on nest morphology from 55 passerine species (>700 specimens) and measuring intraspecific variability of nest structure. We found that species mean and within species variation in nest morphology are phylogenetically conserved, and that species with domed nests presented higher levels of nest morphology variation than cup nest species. We also revealed that the capacity of species to present innovative behaviours is not linked with how they vary nest morphology . Moreover, we revealed that nests from species with larger variation in clutch size and that are built by single parents are more variable. Our results help the understanding of how behaviour and extended phenotypes evolve, and highlights the importance of exploring the phylogenetic history of behavioural flexibility when trying to predict the capacity of species to respond to novel challenges.This article is part of the theme issue ‘The evolutionary ecology of nests: a cross-taxon approach’.
Transition in a numerical model of contact line dynamics and forced dewetting

description: We investigate the transition to a Landau-Levich-Derjaguin film in forced dewetting using a quadtree adaptive solution to the Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension. We use a discretization of the capillary forces near the receding contact line that yields an equilibrium for a specified contact angle $θ_Δ$ called the numerical contact angle. Despite the well-known contact line singularity, dynamic simulations can proceed without any explicit additional numerical procedure. We investigate angles from $15^\circ$ to $110^\circ$ and capillary numbers from $0.00085$ to $0.2$ where the mesh size $Δ$ is varied in the range of $0.0035$ to $0.06$ of the capillary length $l_c$. To interpret the results, we use Cox's theory which involves a microscopic distance $r_m$ and a microscopic angle $θ_e$. In the numerical case, the equivalent of $θ_e$ is the angle $θ_Δ$ and we find that Cox's theory also applies. We introduce the scaling factor or gauge function $ϕ$ so that $r_m = Δ/ϕ$ and estimate this gauge function by comparing our numerics to Cox's theory. The comparison provides a direct assessment of the agreement of the numerics with Cox's theory and reveals a critical feature of the numerical treatment of contact line dynamics: agreement is poor at small angles while it is better at large angles. This scaling factor is shown to depend only on $θ_Δ$ and the viscosity ratio $q$. In the case of small $θ_e$, we use the prediction by Eggers [Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 93, pp 094502, 2004] of the critical capillary number for the Landau-Levich-Derjaguin forced dewetting transition. We generalize this prediction to large $θ_e$ and arbitrary $q$ and express the critical capillary number as a function of $θ_e$ and $r_m$. An analogy can be drawn between $r_m$ and the numerical slip length.

description: In recent years, control of group velocity of light has attracted enormous interest. One of the main challenges is to realize an absorption-free fast or slow light propagation. Here, we study dispersion and absorption properties of a weak probe field in a Landau-quantized graphene and report a gain-assisted superluminal light propagation. Moreover, an attempt is made to develop an analytical expression and necessary parameters for switching the group velocity of the probe field from subluminal to superluminal. It's worth mentioning that large dephasing rate in graphene offers feasibility of superluminal propagation of ultrashort light pulses. Additionally, dynamical behavior of dispersion and absorption of a weak probe field in a closed-type graphene system is investigated, and it is found that the absorption and dispersion can be dramatically affected by both the relative phase of applied fields and the Rabi frequencies in such a way that a large transient gain can be achieved and a transient absorption can be completely eliminated.

Short note on the density of states in 3D Weyl semimetals

description: The average density of states in a disordered three-dimensional Weyl system is discussed in the case of a continuous distribution of random scattering. Our result clearly indicate that the average density of states does not vanish, reflecting the absence of a critical point for a metal-insulator transition. This calculation supports recent suggestions of an avoided quantum critical point in the disordered three-dimensional Weyl semimetal. However, the effective density of states can be very small such that the saddle-approximation with a vanishing density of states might be valid for practical cases.

description: We present a scheme to deterministically prepare non-classical quantum states of a massive mirror including highly non-Gaussian states exhibiting sizeable negativity of the Wigner function. This is achieved by exploiting the non-linear light-matter interaction in an optomechanical cavity by driving the system with optimally designed frequency patterns. Our scheme reveals to be resilient against mechanical and optical damping, as well as mechanical thermal noise and imperfections in the driving scheme. Our proposal thus opens a promising route for table-top experiments to explore and exploit macroscopic quantum phenomena.

description: Brillouin laser oscillators offer powerful and flexible dynamics as the basis for mode-locked lasers, microwave oscillators, and optical gyroscopes in a variety of optical systems. However, Brillouin interactions are exceedingly weak in conventional silicon photonic waveguides, stifling progress towards silicon-based Brillouin lasers. The recent advent of hybrid photonic-phononic waveguides has revealed Brillouin interactions to be one of the strongest and most tailorable nonlinearities in silicon. Here, we harness these engineered nonlinearities to demonstrate Brillouin lasing in silicon. Moreover, we show that this silicon-based Brillouin laser enters an intriguing regime of dynamics, in which optical self-oscillation produces phonon linewidth narrowing. Our results provide a platform to develop a range of applications for monolithic integration within silicon photonic circuits.

Year: 2022

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 75, 36-61
description: The development of this important manor house has been the subject of a recent programme of detailed recording and analysis, accompanied by dendrochronology. A complex sequence of building phases has been established, dating back to the earlier thirteenth century, with major rebuilding in the late thirteenth century and the sixteenth century. It is suggested that an aisled hall of c.1238, possibly timber-framed, was replaced in c.1288 with a stone-built hall and a cross wing containing service rooms below a solar. Parallels are drawn within the locality and wider national developments to establish the significance of the building. In national terms, it provides an excellent example of the transition from aisled hall to a base cruck or 'short principal' type of roof structure, with unusually precise dating of both phases. Regionally, it is argued that it is a representative example of an early 'great rebuilding' in this stone belt region, probably marking the transition from timber-framed construction to stone, and using the base cruck/short principal roof structure within stone walls.
Provable Dynamic Robust PCA or Robust Subspace Tracking

Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)

description: Dynamic robust PCA refers to the dynamic (time-varying) extension of robust PCA (RPCA). It assumes that the true (uncorrupted) data lies in a low-dimensional subspace that can change with time, albeit slowly. The goal is to track this changing subspace over time in the presence of sparse outliers. We develop and study a novel algorithm, that we call simple-ReProCS, based on the recently introduced Recursive Projected Compressive Sensing (ReProCS) framework. Our work provides the first guarantee for dynamic RPCA that holds under weakened versions of standard RPCA assumptions, slow subspace change and a lower bound assumption on most outlier magnitudes. Our result is significant because (i) it removes the strong assumptions needed by the two previous complete guarantees for ReProCS-based algorithms; (ii) it shows that it is possible to achieve significantly improved outlier tolerance, compared with all existing RPCA or dynamic RPCA solutions by exploiting the above two simple extra assumptions; and (iii) it proves that simple-ReProCS is online (after initialization), fast, and, has near-optimal memory complexity.

In this article I will argue that the apocryphal Simon is a composite figure drawn substantially, but not necessarily wholly, from the Simon of Acts 8 and the Elymas/Bar-Jesus figure who opposes Paul in Acts 13.

Creators: name: Hill, Nick
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 77, 12-34
description: This building, a high quality timber-framed structure dating to the late fifteenth century, has been the subject of a recent programme of detailed recording and analysis, accompanied by dendrochronology. It is located on a prominent site, just opposite the church, at the centre of the village of Hallaton in south-east Leicestershire (OS ref: SP787966). The building, of six bays, had timber-framed walls with heavy close-studding throughout. Three bays originally formed an open hall, with a high arch-braced roof truss of an unusual 'stub tie beam' form, a rare Midlands type associated with high status houses. Although this was an open hall, the absence of smoke blackening indicates that there must have been a chimneystack from the beginning rather than an open hearth, an unusually early feature for the late fifteenth century. The whole timber-framed structure is of sophisticated, high class construction, and contrasts strongly with other houses of the period in the village, which are cruck-built. It is suggested that, though subsequently reduced in status and subdivided into four cottages, it was once one of the two main manor houses of Hallaton. The location of this second manor house has been lost since it was merged with the other main manor in the early seventeenth century.

description: We consider idealized parton shower event generators that treat parton spin and color exactly, leaving aside the choice of practical approximations for spin and color. We investigate how the structure of such a parton shower generator is related to the structure of QCD. We argue that a parton shower with splitting functions proportional to $α_s$ can be viewed not just as a model, but as the lowest order approximation to a shower that is defined at any perturbative order. To support this argument, we present a formulation for a parton shower at order $α_s ^k$ for any $k$. Since some of the input functions needed are specified by their properties but not calculated, this formulation does not provide a useful recipe for an order $α_s ^k$ parton shower algorithm. However, in this formulation we see how the operators that generate the shower are related to operators that specify the infrared singularities of QCD.

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 91, 129-136
description: This building was the subject of detailed recording in 2002 and a previous article in Transactions (Hill 2003). It had a high-quality timber frame with an unusual 'stub tie beam' roof, for which tree-ring dating indicated a likely date of c.1484-1509. It was suggested that this building, clearly of high status, was once one of the two main manor houses of Hallaton. During the previous recording, only the interior details of the timber frame were visible. In 2011, during the course of major re-rendering works, much of the exterior was uncovered briefly, revealing further details of the structure of the building, including a finely carved main doorway.

Media consumption amid contestation: Northern Nigerians’ engagement with the BBC World Service
Creators: name: Abubakar, Abdullahi
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2011

description: This study primarily examines the dynamics of the long-term relationship between the BBC World Service and its mainly Muslim Northern Nigerian audiences. It broadly explores the pattern and consequences of Northern Nigerians’ interactions with international media, focusing particularly on their engagement with the BBC World Service. Employing a multidimensional qualitative research approach, the study examines the historical background of the relationship, the transformations it has undergone, and how the current dynamics of global geopolitics and advances in communications technologies are redefining it. It looks at the complex processes and procedures of both media content production and reception. On the production side, it unveils the BBC’s contradictory functions of providing ‘impartial’ international news service and promoting British public diplomacy, the complexity of its relationship with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and the nature of its engagement with distribution technologies. On the reception side, the mainly Muslim Northern Nigerians are found to be high consumers of BBC news and current affairs programmes but with considerable level of selectivity. Although they see BBC as the most credible international broadcaster that aids their comprehension of international affairs and generally influences their everyday life, they still regard it as essentially a Western cultural and ideological instrument that portrays the West positively and depicts the Muslim world and Africa negatively. The findings point to patterns and particularities of postcolonial transnational audiences’ consumption of media that suggest new conceptual and theoretical strands in reception research. They indicate audiences’ tendency to exhibit a phenomenon of selective believability in their interactions with transnational media; the mediating role of religion, culture and ideology in such interactions; and the dynamics of credibility and believability. Credibility is found to be a necessary but not sufficient condition for believability in audiences’ consumption of dissonant media messages.

Applications of nonuniform sampling in wideband multichannel communication systems
Creators: name: Ahmad, Bashar
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2011

description: This research is an investigation into utilising randomised sampling in communication systems to ease the sampling rate requirements of digitally processing narrowband signals residing within a wide range of overseen frequencies. By harnessing the aliasing suppression capabilities of such sampling schemes, it is shown that certain processing tasks, namely spectrum sensing, can be performed at significantly low sampling rates compared to those demanded by uniform-sampling-based digital signal processing. The latter imposes sampling frequencies of at least twice the monitored bandwidth regardless of the spectral activity within. Aliasing can otherwise result in irresolvable processing problems, as the spectral support of the present signal is a priori unknown. Lower sampling rates exploit the processing module(s) resources (such as power) more efficiently and avoid the possible need for premium specialised high-cost DSP, especially if the handled bandwidth is considerably wide. A number of randomised sampling schemes are examined and appropriate spectral analysis tools are used to furnish their salient features. The adopted periodogram-type estimators are tailored to each of the schemes and their statistical characteristics are assessed for stationary, and cyclostationary signals. Their ability to alleviate the bandwidth limitation of uniform sampling is demonstrated and the smeared-aliasing defect that accompanies randomised sampling is also quantified. In employing the aforementioned analysis tools a novel wideband spectrum sensing approach is introduced. It permits the simultaneous sensing of a number of nonoverlapping spectral subbands constituting a wide range of monitored frequencies. The operational sampling rates of the sensing procedure are not limited or dictated by the overseen bandwidth antithetical to uniform-sampling-based techniques. Prescriptive guidelines are developed to ensure that the proposed technique satisfies certain detection probabilities predefined by the user. These recommendations address the trade-off between the required sampling rate and the length of the signal observation window (sensing time) in a given scenario. Various aspects of the introduced multiband spectrum sensing approach are investigated and its applicability highlighted.
Donington le Heath Manor House Revisited

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 87, 161-190
description: his paper draws together research and recording work conducted over the last 50 years at Donington le Heath Manor House, and sets this within the context of a new, comprehensive analysis of the building fabric. the original form of the building, probably built by robert de Herle soon after 1293, is reconstructed. early studies thought the building to be a 'first-floor hall', but it is now interpreted as a chamber block, which accompanied a lost ground-floor hall. the building, which survives in remarkably complete condition, was largely constructed in a single phase of work, to a sophisticated and carefully integrated design. Most unusually, there were two sets of chambers, each with an inner chamber and garderobe. the location of the lost hall remains unclear, but it may have stood independently to the south-east of the chamber block. the later development of the house, including a major modernisation of c.1618, is briefly traced.

description: Microcolonies are aggregates of a few dozen to a few thousand cells exhibited by many bacteria. The formation of microcolonies is a crucial step towards the formation of more mature bacterial communities known as biofilms, but also marks a significant change in bacterial physiology. Within a microcolony, bacteria forgo a single cell lifestyle for a communal lifestyle hallmarked by high cell density and physical interactions between cells potentially altering their behaviour. It is thus crucial to understand how initially identical single cells start to behave differently while assembling in these tight communities. Here we show that cells in the microcolonies formed by the human pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ng) present differential motility behaviors within an hour upon colony formation. Observation of merging microcolonies and tracking of single cells within microcolonies reveal a heterogeneous motility behavior: cells close to the surface of the microcolony exhibit a much higher motility compared to cells towards the center. Numerical simulations of a biophysical model for the microcolonies at the single cell level suggest that the emergence of differential behavior within a multicellular microcolony of otherwise identical cells is of mechanical origin. It could suggest a route toward further bacterial differentiation and ultimately mature biofilms.

EFTofPNG: A package for high precision computation with the Effective Field Theory of Post-Newtonian Gravity

description: We present a new public package "EFTofPNG" for high precision computation in the effective field theory of post-Newtonian (PN) Gravity, including spins. We created this package in view of the timely need to publicly share automated computation tools, which integrate the various types of physics manifested in the expected increasing influx of gravitational wave (GW) data. Hence, we created a free and open source package, which is self-contained, modular, all-inclusive, and accessible to the classical Gravity community. The "EFTofPNG" Mathematica package also uses the power of the "xTensor" package, suited for complicate tensor computation, where our coding also strategically approaches the generic generation of Feynman contractions, which is universal to all perturbation theories in physics, by efficiently treating n-point functions as tensors of rank n. The package currently contains four independent units, which serve as subsidiaries to the main one. Its final unit serves as a pipeline chain for the obtainment of the final GW templates, and provides the full computation of all derivatives and gauge invariant physical observables of interest. The upcoming "EFTofPNG" package version 1.0 should cover the point mass sector, and all the spin sectors, up to the fourth PN order, and the two-loop level. We expect and strongly encourage public development of the package to improve its efficiency, and to extend it to further PN sectors, and observables useful for the waveform modeling.

Thomas Roberts's 1741 (1714) Map of Leicester

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 85, 123-138
description: The 'True Plan or Ground-Plot of the Ancient Corporation of Leicester, produced by Thomas Roberts and bearing the date 1741, is widely regarded as being the most accurate of the eighteenth-century maps of Leicester. There is much in its detail to interest archaeologists and historians; for example, it is the only map of Leicester to show a wall defining the west side of the Newarke precinct, the existence of which has now been demonstrated by excavation. There are, however, uncertainties over the provenance of the map and in particular the date of 1741 inscribed upon it. G. A. Chinnery pointed out an entry in the Chamberlains Accounts for 15 January 1711/12 recording a payment of �12 to Thomas Roberts for his paines in making a Survey of the Corporation. This raised the possibility that the 1741 map was based on a survey made some 30 years earlier. Particular details of the map, including buildings known to have been demolished long before 1741, tend to support this interpretation. Two separate authors have submitted papers to the Editor presenting the results of new research into the life and work of Thomas Roberts. As they offer different interpretations of the date and intended purpose of the map, it has been decided to publish both papers. The second paper will appear in Transactions 2012. Editor.
