description: There are different definitions of ends in non-locally-finite graphs which are all equivalent in the locally finite case. We prove the compactness of the end-topology that is based on the principle of removing finite sets of vertices and give a proof of the compactness of the end-topology that is constructed by the principle of removing finite sets of edges. For the latter case there exists already a proof in \cite{cartwright93martin}, which only works on graphs with countably infinite vertex sets and in contrast to which we do not use the Theorem of Tychonoff. We also construct a new topology of ends that arises from the principle of removing sets of vertices with finite diameter and give applications that underline the advantages of this new definition.

description: The deliverable 2.1 collects the first results of the socio economic analysis and inquiries about the emerging needs of the social targets characterized by PIE condition (young Neets and precarious workers, working poor, migrants, and people under the poverty threshold) and the most relevant experiences of bottom-up welfare. This analysis is carried out after a survey of the most relevant changes in the valorization process, income distribution and labour market. Flexible work increasing has heavily worsened welfare conditions, thereby highlighting the necessity of a new welfare, able to be adequate to this kind of transformations (commonfare).

description: In circuit quantum electrodynamics, measuring the state of a superconducting qubit introduces a loss channel which can enhance spontaneous emission through the Purcell effect, thus decreasing qubit lifetime. This decay can be mitigated by performing the measurement through a Purcell filter which forbids signal propagation at the qubit transition frequency. If the filter is also well-matched at the readout cavity frequency, it will protect the qubit from decoherence channels without sacrificing measurement speed. We propose and analyze design for a mechanical Purcell filter, which we also fabricate and characterize at room temperature. The filter is comprised of an array of nanomechanical resonators in thin-film lithium niobate, connected in a ladder topology, with series and parallel resonances arranged to produce a bandpass response. The modest footprint, steep band edges, and absence of cross-talk in these filters make them a novel and appealing alternative to analogous electromagnetic versions currently used in microwave quantum machines.

description: `Gravitational memory' refers to the possibility that, in cosmologies with a time-varying gravitational `constant', objects such as black holes may retain a memory of conditions at the time of their birth. We consider this phenomenon in a different physical scenario, where the objects under consideration are boson stars. We construct boson star solutions in scalar-tensor gravity theories, and consider their dependence on the asymptotic value of the gravitational strength. We then discuss several possible physical interpretations, including the concept of pure gravitational stellar evolution.

We identify the algebra as the special unitary Lie superalgebra, su(2|4;2,0) or su(2|4;2,4), and analyze its root structure. We discuss the typical and atypical representations deriving the typicality condition explicitly in terms of the energy and other four quantum numbers. We classify the BPS multiplets preserving 4,8,12,16 real supercharges and obtain the corresponding spectrum. We show that in the BPS multiplet either the lowest energy floor is an su(2) singlet or the highest energy floor is an su(4) singlet.

description: Pulsars are precision celestial clocks. When being put in a binary, the ticking conveys the secret of underlying spacetime geometrodynamics. We use pulsars to test if the gravitational interaction possesses a tiny deviation from Einstein's General Relativity (GR). In the framework of Standard-Model Extension (SME), we systematically search for Lorentz-violating operators cataloged by (a) the minimal couplings of mass dimension 4, (b) the CPT symmetry of mass dimension 5, and (c) the gravitational weak equivalence principle (GWEP) of mass dimension 8. No deviation from GR was found yet.

description: The hippocampus is traditionally thought to transmit contextual information to limbic structures where it acquires valence. Using freely moving calcium imaging and optogenetics, we show that while the dorsal CA1 subregion of the hippocampus is enriched in place cells, ventral CA1 (vCA1) is enriched in anxiety cells that are both activated by anxiogenic environments and required for avoidance behavior. Imaging cells defined by their projection target revealed that anxiety cells were enriched in the vCA1 population projecting to the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA), but not to the basal amygdala (BA). Consistent with this selectivity, optogenetic activation of vCA1 terminals in LHA, but not BA increased anxiety and avoidance, while activation of terminals in BA, but not LHA impaired contextual fear memory. Thus, the hippocampus encodes not only neutral but also valence-related contextual information, and the vCA1-LHA pathway is a direct route by which the hippocampus can influence innate anxiety behavior.

description: We analyze photo-refractive incoherent soliton beams and their interactions in Kerr-like nonlinear media. The field in each of M incoherently interacting components is calculated using an integrable set of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. In particular, we obtain a general N-soliton solution, describing propagation of multi-soliton complexes and their collisions. The analysis shows that the evolution of such higher-order soliton beams is determined by coherent and incoherent contributions from fundamental solitons. Common features and differences between these internal interactions are revealed and illustrated by numerical examples.

The Role that Off-Street Parking and Curb Cuts play in the Urban Environment

description: Despite the population density, level of mixed-use, and transit connectivity of many neighborhoods in New York City, off-street parking facilities are prevalent throughout the City. These off-street parking facilities, often required by the Zoning Resolution of the City of New York, greatly impact the pedestrian streetscape. Each off-street parking facility requires a curb cut in the sidewalk for access between the parking facility and the street. These curb cuts hinder the pedestrian experience and put pedestrians at risk of getting hit by a vehicle. Each additional curb cut increases the risk of a pedestrian-vehicular collision. This study analyzes three areas in the inner ring neighborhoods of New York City. These three study areas each have high population densities, high levels of mixed-uses, and high levels of connectivity to the New York City transit system, yet the percentage of sidewalk taken up by curb cuts in each of the three study areas greatly impedes upon the pedestrian environment. Rather than encourage automobile use as off-street parking facilities do, New York City should instead refocus its efforts on improving the pedestrian streetscape by reducing the number of off-street parking facilities, thereby eliminating the curb cuts needed to access them. The three study areas are compelling cases as to why parking as well as driving on a regular basis is unnecessary given the plethora of amenities available in these areas and the transit access and connectivity of these study areas.

description: The rapid population aging has stimulated the development of assistive devices that provide personalized medical support to the needies suffering from various etiologies. One prominent clinical application is a computer-assisted speech training system which enables personalized speech therapy to patients impaired by communicative disorders in the patient's home environment. Such a system relies on the robust automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology to be able to provide accurate articulation feedback. With the long-term aim of developing off-the-shelf ASR systems that can be incorporated in clinical context without prior speaker information, we compare the ASR performance of speaker-independent bottleneck and articulatory features on dysarthric speech used in conjunction with dedicated neural network-based acoustic models that have been shown to be robust against spectrotemporal deviations. We report ASR performance of these systems on two dysarthric speech datasets of different characteristics to quantify the achieved performance gains. Despite the remaining performance gap between the dysarthric and normal speech, significant improvements have been reported on both datasets using speaker-independent ASR architectures.

Topologically protected duality on the boundary of Maxwell-BF theory

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Maxwell-BF theory with a single-sided planar boundary is considered in Euclidean four dimensional spacetime. The presence of a boundary breaks the Ward identities which describe the gauge symmetries of the theory, and, using standard methods of quantum field theory, the most general boundary conditions and a nontrivial current algebra on the boundary are derived. The electromagnetic structure which characterizes the boundary is used to identify the three dimensional degrees of freedom, which turn out to be formed by a scalar field and a vector field, related by a duality relation. The induced three dimensional theory shows a strong-weak coupling duality which separates different regimes described by different covariant actions. The role of the Maxwell term in the bulk action is discussed, together with the relevance of the topological nature of the bulk action for the boundary physics.

Two scales are extracted from the analysis, and revealed experimentally, one characterizing the external forcing, and the other, varying as $R_λ^{-3/5}$, defining the position of the maximum of the function $- S_{3}(r)/r$, and for which a physical interpretation is offered.

description: We describe a class of impulsive gravitational waves which propagate either in a de Sitter or an anti-de Sitter background. They are conformal to impulsive waves of Kundt's class. In a background with positive cosmological constant they are spherical (but non-expanding) waves generated by pairs of particles with arbitrary multipole structure propagating in opposite directions. When the cosmological constant is negative, they are hyperboloidal waves generated by a null particle of the same type. In this case, they are included in the impulsive limit of a class of solutions described by Siklos that are conformal to pp-waves.

description: Stock trading based on Kelly's celebrated Expected Logarithmic Growth (ELG) criterion, a well-known prescription for optimal resource allocation, has received considerable attention in the literature. Using ELG as the performance metric, we compare the impact of trade execution delay on the relative performance of high-frequency trading versus buy and hold. While it is intuitively obvious and straightforward to prove that in the presence of sufficiently high transaction costs, buy and hold is the better strategy, is it possible that with no transaction costs, buy and hold can still be the better strategy? When there is no delay in trade execution, we prove a theorem saying that the answer is ``no.'' However, when there is delay in trade execution, we present simulation results using a binary lattice stock model to show that the answer can be ``yes.'' This is seen to be true whether self-financing is imposed or not.

The Romantic Other: Adam Mickiewicz in Russia

Romanticism

description: This dissertation examines the role of Polish poet Adam Mickiewicz as the Romantic Other in the formation of Russia's Romantic identity during his Russian sojourn between 1824 and 1829. Analysis of Mickiewicz's image as the poetic Other, with respect to his Russian contemporaries, reveals the process that led to the establishment of their individual and national identities during the transition from Classicism to Romanticism in the second half of the 1820s. Examination of materials gathered from a variety of sources - poetry dedicated to, and inspired by, Mickiewicz, reviews of his work, correspondence and memoirs - demonstrates how contemporary Russians perceived Mickiewicz: a Polish poet, all at once a representative of Western literature and culture, a Lithuanian bard, a Slavic Byron, and a poet who was also close to Russia's cultural and poetic tradition. Special consideration is also given to Mickiewicz as the Other in Pushkin's poetic paradigm "bard vs. prophet", through which the Russian poet expressed and interpreted his own poetic identity in the context of Western and Russian literature. Such a multi-dimensional image of Mickiewicz reflects the Russians' struggle to establish their own Romantic identity in response to Western literary and cultural models, as well as one that would reflect Russia's own history and tradition. By examining Mickiewicz's so far unexplored position as the Romantic Other, this dissertation provides a new perspective on the significant role that the Polish poet and his work played in the critical period of Russia's transition towards its own Romantic literature.

Evaluation of the $B^+_c\rightarrow D^0K^+$ decay by the factorization approaches and applying the effects of the final state interaction

description: In this paper the decay of $B^+_c$ meson, consisting of two b and c heavy quarks, into the $D^0$ and $K^+$ mesons is studied. Given that the experimental branching ratio for this decay is within the range of $3.72\times 10^{-5}$ to $11.16\times10^{-5}$ and in our estimating the theoretical result by using the QCD factorization approaches is $10^2$ times less than experimental one (we have obtained $1.41\times10^{-7}$), it is decided to calculate the theoretical branching ratio by applying the final state interaction (FSI) through the T and cross section channels. In this process, before the $B^+_c$ meson decays into two final state mesons of $D^0K^+$, it first decays into two intermediate mesons like $J/ψD^{*+}_s$, then these two mesons transformed into two final mesons by exchanging another meson like $D^0$. The FSI effects are very sensitive to the changes in the phenomenological parameter that appear in the form factor relation, as in most calculation changing two units in this parameter, makes the final result multiply in the branching ratio, therefor the decision to use FSI is not unexpected. In this study there are nineteen intermediate states in which the contribution of each one is calculated and summed in the final amplitude. Therefore, the numerical value of the branching ratio of $B^+_c\rightarrow D^0K^+$ decay is obtained by calculating the FSI effects from $1.17\times10^{-5}$ to $11.65\times10^{-5}$ which is consistent with the experimental result.

Short Overview of Early Developments of the Hardy Cross Type Methods for Computation of Flow Distribution in Pipe Networks

description: Hardy Cross originally proposed a method for analysis of flow in networks of conduits or conductors in 1936. His method was the first really useful engineering method in the field of pipe network calculation. Only electrical analogs of hydraulic networks were used before the Hardy Cross method. A problem with flow resistance versus electrical resistance makes these electrical analog methods obsolete. The method by Hardy Cross is taught extensively at faculties, and it remains an important tool for the analysis of looped pipe systems. Engineers today mostly use a modified Hardy Cross method which considers the whole looped network of pipes simultaneously (use of these methods without computers is practically impossible). A method from a Russian practice published during the 1930s, which is similar to the Hardy Cross method, is described, too. Some notes from the work of Hardy Cross are also presented. Finally, an improved version of the Hardy Cross method, which significantly reduces the number of iterations, is presented and discussed. We also tested multi-point iterative methods, which can be used as a substitution for the Newton-Raphson approach used by Hardy Cross, but in this case this approach did not reduce the number of iterations. Although many new models have been developed since the time of Hardy Cross, the main purpose of this paper is to illustrate the very beginning of modelling of gas and water pipe networks and ventilation systems. As a novelty, a new multi-point iterative solver is introduced and compared with the standard Newton-Raphson iterative method.

description: We study the intrinsic nature of the finite system-size effect in estimating shear viscosity of dilute and dense fluids within the framework of the Green-Kubo approach. From extensive molecular dynamics simulations, we observe that the size effect on shear viscosity is characterized by an oscillatory behavior with respect to system size $L$ at high density and by a scaling behavior with an $L^{-1}$ correction term at low density. Analysis of the potential contribution in the shear-stress autocorrelation function reveals that the former is configurational and is attributed to the inaccurate description of the long-range spatial correlations in finite systems. Observation of the long-time inverse-power decay in the kinetic contribution confirms its hydrodynamic nature. The $L^{-1}$ correction term of shear viscosity is explained by the sensitive change in the long-time tail obtained from a finite system.

description: To rule through choice is to create differentiated options for urban citizens who use public infrastructure and to produce information and price signals that guide decisions. It treats urban residents as rational consumers of public goods. Economists, planners and activists developed the rhetoric and tools of choice over the course of a half-century. This strategy moved from the fringes of planning and policy making to become widely accepted and adopted. How did this manifestation of choice become central to urban policy? What are the consequences of policies that emphasize individual choice? What can be done to make them conform to the ethical standards of planning? The dissertation that follows focuses on the origins and development of choice-based policy-making and the public dispute over it in New York City. Two cases elucidate the rule of choice. School choice and congestion pricing were signature policies for New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg (2002- 2013). In the 1950s two economists, William Vickrey and Milton Friedman, translated fundamental principles in that discipline into policy proposals in education and transportation governance. When the Bloomberg administration sought to govern education and roadway infrastructure through choice, this strategy became the source of public debate and deliberation. The history and contemporary politics of the two cases provide material for reflecting on core theoretical issues in planning, including the changing nature of liberalism, the meanings and uses of data and rationality and the role of the material world in producing and recreating modes of engaging with urban problems.

description: We present an analytical and numerical study of the Klein-Gordon kink-soliton dynamics in inhomogeneous media. In particular, we study an external field that is almost constant for the whole system but that changes its sign at the center of coordinates and a localized impurity with finite-width. The soliton solution of the Klein-Gordon-like equations is usually treated as a structureless point-like particle. A richer dynamics is unveiled when the extended character of the soliton is taken into account. We show that interesting spatiotemporal phenomena appear when the structure of the soliton interacts with finite-width inhomogeneities. We solve an inverse problem in order to have external perturbations which are generic and topologically equivalent to well-known bifurcation models and such that the stability problem can be solved exactly. We also show the different quasiperiodic and chaotic motions the soliton undergoes as a time-dependent force pumps energy into the traslational mode of the kink and relate these dynamics with the excitation of the shape modes of the soliton.

description: Cosimo Comidas De Carbognano, was born in Istanbul from an Armenian family converted to Catholicism.He was a dragoman for the Bourbon governments of the Two Sicilies and Spain in the Ottoman Empire. His curiosity about the history of Istanbul and his conviction that the various descriptions of the city, provided by foreign travellers, were incompleteasthey lacked ofʻsomeparticularitiesʼled him to write the DescrizioneTopograficadellostatopresente di Costantinopoli (Topographic Description of the Present State of Costantinopole). The book, published in 1794, is dedicated to Ferdinand IV of The Two Sicilies and it has the merit of exposinga description of the various classical monuments, both Christian and Islamic, in the city and in its surroundings in a highly contextualized manner and enriched by twenty-one illustrations. In this paper we propose some reflections on the image of Istanbul at the end of the 18th century, based on the information provided by De Carbognano.

The Roots of Feminist Invocations in Post-Revolutionary Iran

description: Studies of the transformation of Iranian society after the Islamic Revolution of 1979 and its impact on the position of the Iranian woman have revealed that three and a half decades of efforts by the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) to institutionalize an archaic image of the ideal Muslim woman have produced results contrary to what was intended. The expansion of women's education in post-revolutionary Iran identified as an unintended consequence of the revolution has been empowering women against the IRI's misogynistic ideology. A feminist movement based on the evolution of female consciousness and an unprecedented solidarity among previously divided secular and religious women has emerged as another medium of resistance. This study augments the research in this field by examining modifications in the education system following the revolution. A critical content analysis of elementary school textbooks issued by the Pahlavi and the IRI assesses the way in which each regime sought to impart its gender ideology to young girls. The eradication of coeducation and institution of single-sex schooling at the pre- university level is investigated as a factor in combating the constraints imposed by patriarchal laws on the female population. The conclusion is offered that the IRI may have unwittingly undermined its own agenda for women in promulgating such seemingly outdated decrees. Finally, this dissertation examines women's publications of the Pahlavi and IRI periods, emphasizing the pioneering role of one particular feminist publication in presenting a universal feminist ideology.
La sindrome identitaria. Una rassegna problematica della letteratura scientifica sulla costruzione dell’identità culturale

description: Il nostro caso di studio è la Sicilia e la sua identità culturale. Esso si presta molto bene a costituire oggetto di indagine nelle pieghe delle riflessioni avanzate da numerosi studiosi sul tema dell’identità, sia pur in contesti diversi. Il nostro intento è di delineare una concezione che abbiamo definito “sindrome”, per indicare quel complesso insieme di sintomi di natura economica, sociale, storica e politica che precedono e seguono l’affermazione di una lista di caratteristiche costitutive di una determinata identità culturale. Una sindrome che prende ad avvolgere il corpo sociale come dentro una vera e propria manifestazione di malessere diffuso che rappresenta lo sforzo per raggiungere la “propria” identità culturale, quella immaginata, desiderata, ricercata, e che rappresenta anche la malinconia di una identità perduta, dissolta nel recente passato – nessuno sa quando – e ora da recuperare. In questo articolo facciamo una rassegna, ragionata e problematizzata, della base teorica e metodologica, prendendo in esame non tutta la letteratura sul tema, che, come si può ben comprendere, è vastissima, ma quegli snodi e gangli che abbiamo ritenuto importanti per definire contorni e intrecci di un dibattito particolarmente difficile e fortemente implicato politicamente, ideologicamente e concettualmente, nelle scienze umanistiche e sociali.

Exact regularized point particle (ERPP) method for particle-laden wall-bounded flows in the two-way coupling regime

description: The Exact Regularized Point Particle (ERPP) method is extended to treat the interphase momentum coupling between particles and fluid in the presence of walls by accounting for the vorticity generation due to the particles close to solid boundaries. The ERPP method overcomes the limitations of other methods by allowing the simulation of an extensive parameter space (Stokes number, mass loading, particle-to-fluid density ratio and Reynolds number) and of particle spatial distributions that are uneven (few particles per computational cell). The enhanced ERPP method is explained in detail and validated by considering the global impulse balance. In conditions when particles are located close to the wall, a common scenario in wall-bounded turbulent flows, the main contribution to the total impulse arises from the particle-induced vorticity at the solid boundary. The method is applied to direct numerical simulations of particle-laden turbulent pipe flow in the two-way coupling regime to address the turbulence modulation. The effects of the mass loading, the Stokes number and the particle-to-fluid density ratio are investigated. The drag is either unaltered or increased by the particles with respect to the uncoupled case. No drag reduction is found in the parameter space considered. The momentum stress budget, which includes an extra stress contribution by the particles, provides the rationale behind the drag behaviour. The extra stress produces a momentum flux towards the wall that strongly modifies the viscous stress, the culprit of drag at solid boundaries.

From arbitrariness to ambiguities in the evaluation of perturbative physical amplitudes and their symmetry relations

description: A very general calculational strategy is applied to the evaluation of the divergent physical amplitudes which are typical of perturbative calculations. With this approach in the final results all the intrinsic arbitrariness of the calculations due to the divergent character is still present. We show that by using the symmetry properties as a guide to search for the (compulsory) choices in such a way as to avoid ambiguities, a deep and clear understanding of the role of regularization methods emerges. Requiring then an universal point of view for the problem, as allowed by our approach, very interesting conclusions can be stated about the possible justifications of most intriguing aspect of the perturbative calculations in quantum field theory: the triangle anomalies.

Mafie, feudalesimi e tatuaggi

description: La letteratura contemporanea, le pagine di cronaca e le sale dei cinema hanno ormai saccheggiato e svelato gran parte degli usi e dei costumi tipici delle mafie moderne. Un’operazione di divulgazione impensabile fino alla metà del secolo scorso, dovuta tanto alla bassa percentuale di collaboratori di giustizia quanto alla scarsa conoscenza del tema o, ipotesi ben più grave, al timore reverenziale con cui l’opinione pubblica approcciava l’idea di maffia. I ferrei codici comportamentali della criminalità organizzata, sono sempre stati imposti agli affiliati ricorrendo ad una ritualità dal valore sacro fatta non solo di simboli, ma anche di veri e proprio miti e leggende. Da misteriosi, questi meccanismi sono ora divenuti pittoreschi e curiosi aneddoti di costume in grado attirare l’attenzione di un pubblico smaliziato ormai affascinato dalle organizzazioni criminali che, nel corso degli anni e delle inchieste giudiziarie, hanno svelato loro malgrado, molte delle dinamiche che le resero famigerate e temute in ogni angolo del mondo.

Environmental protection--Social aspects

description: The aim of this dissertation is to understand how worries over nature’s degradation, ensuing securitization practices, and emergent norms intersect in environmental protected areas.  It concerns the Nilgiri Biosphere in Kerala, South India, and how regimes of nature protection effect the lives of its human inhabitants, the Kurumba, a so-called primitive adivasi tribe.  Combining ethnography with archival research, it asserts that the labors and logics of nature protection, present and past, participate in a distinctly liberal problematic of competing securities, manifest in the tension between sovereign discretions and the freedoms of legal rights and market interests.  This study makes two overarching claims.  First, that during the colonial era, nature’s inessential character allowed for flexibilities in legal interpretation that furthered imperial ambitions.  In the silence of the law, norms mediated by colonialist pejoratives operated to satisfy those ambitions, while supplementing the knowledge necessary for government.  Second, analysis of recent environmental movements and ecological projects surrounding the Nilgiri Biosphere shows how norms derived from civil society are produced to intervene between security prerogatives and social freedoms.   The upshot of these normative practices, I argue, is to depoliticize natures and agencies, while extending and intensifying security’s command of unruly natures.  While ensuring lives lived in accordance to it, this normativity endangers those who fall short of or otherwise elude it.   To understand this endangerment, I provide an interpretation of adivasi resistances and rejections, in particular the Kurumba turn to illicit cultivation of ganja in the Biosphere’s core area.  I contextualize this turn within the history of forest-adivasi relations, recent adivasi actions elsewhere within the Nilgiri Biosphere, and the global discourses of indigenous peoples and the environment.  I argue that by operating not through a putative politics of rights and interest, but through counter-conducts and illegalities, the Kurumba present a challenge to the political as such.

description: We study one parameter deformations of a pair consisting of an analytic singular space $X_0$ and a function $f_0$ on it, in case this defines an isolated singularity. We prove, under general conditions, a bouquet decomposition of the Milnor fibre when the isolated singularity splits in the deformation and the invariance of the Milnor fibration if there is no splitting.
