description: We consider a very asymmetric system of Fermions with an interaction characterized by a positive scattering length only. The minority atoms pair and form a BEC of dimers, while the surplus fermions interact only indirectly through the exchange of Bogoliubov sound modes. This interaction has a finite range, the retardation effects are significant and the surplus fermions will form a P-wave superfluid. We compute the P-wave pairing gap in the BCS and Eliashberg with only energy dependence approximations, and demonstrate their inadequacy in comparison with a full treatment of the momentum and energy dependence of the induced interaction. The pairing gap computed with a full momentum and energy dependence is significantly larger in magnitude and that makes it more likely that this new exotic paired phase could be put in evidence in atomic trap experiments.

Retroflexion and retraction revised
Creators: name: Hamann, Silke
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2002

description: Arguing against Bhat’s (1974) claim that retroflexion cannot be correlated with retraction, the present article illustrates that retroflexes are always retracted, though retraction is not claimed to be a sufficient criterion for retroflexion. The cooccurrence of retraction with retroflexion is shown to make two further implications; first, that non-velarized retroflexes do not exist, and second, that secondary palatalization of retroflexes is phonetically impossible. The process of palatalization is shown to trigger a change in the primary place of articulation to non-retroflex. Phonologically, retraction has to be represented by the feature specification [+back] for all retroflex segments.

Acoustic cues for the Korean stop contrast-dialectal variation
Creators: name: Choi, Hansook
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2002

description: In this study, cross-dialectal variation in the use of the acoustic cues of VOT and F0 to mark the laryngeal contrast in Korean stops is examined with Chonnam Korean and Seoul Korean. Prior experimental results (Han & Weitzman, 1970; Hardcastle, 1973; Jun, 1993 &1998; Kim, C., 1965) show that pitch values in the vowel onset following the target stop consonants play a supplementary role to VOT in designating the three contrastive laryngeal categories. F0 contours are determined in part by the intonational system of a language, which raises the question of how the intonational system interacts with phonological contrasts. Intonational difference might be linked to dissimilar patterns in using the complementary acoustic cues of VOT and F0. This hypothesis is tested with 6 Korean speakers, three Seoul Korean and three Chonnam Korean speakers. The results show that Chonnam Korean involves more 3-way VOT and a 2-way distinction in F0 distribution in comparison to Seoul Korean that shows more 3-way F0 distribution and a 2-way VOT distinction. The two acoustic cues are complementary in that one cue is rather faithful in marking 3-way contrast, while the other cue marks the contrast less distinctively. It also seems that these variations are not completely arbitrary, but linked to the phonological characteristics in dialects. Chonnam Korean, in which the initial tonal realization in the accentual phrase is expected to be more salient, tends to minimize the F0 perturbation effect from the preceding consonants by taking more overlaps in F0 distribution. And a 3-way distribution of VOT in Chonnam Korean, as compensation, can be also understood as a durational sensitivity. Without these characteristics, Seoul Korean shows relatively more overlapping distribution in VOT and more 3-way separation in F0 distribution.

description: Within a minimalist framework of sound-meaning correlation, the present study concentrates on process nominalizations of Russian. It is shown how these constructions are built up syntactically and semantically and in which respects they differ from other types of nominalizations.

description: In this article we construct zeta functions of quantum graphs using a contour integral technique based on the argument principle. We start by considering the special case of the star graph with Neumann matching conditions at the center of the star. We then extend the technique to allow any matching conditions at the center for which the Laplace operator is self-adjoint and finally obtain an expression for the zeta function of any graph with general vertex matching conditions. In the process it is convenient to work with new forms for the secular equation of a quantum graph that extend the well known secular equation of the Neumann star graph. In the second half of the article we apply the zeta function to obtain new results for the spectral determinant, vacuum energy and heat kernel coefficients of quantum graphs. These have all been topics of current research in their own right and in each case this unified approach significantly expands results in the literature.

Thus, we hypothesized that belowground diversity is less affected by increased competition for light during land-use change compared to aboveground diversity. We tested this by quantifying above- and belowground plant richness (roots and rhizomes, seed and bud bank) in semi-natural grasslands subjected to 7 years of experimental abandonment and fertilization treatments in a full-factorial design. We used conventional species identification to measure plant richness aboveground and 454 sequencing of the chloroplast trnL (UAA) gene to measure richness of roots and rhizomes; in addition, we used the shoot emergence method to measure soil seed and bud bank richness. While aboveground richness decreased with abandonment and fertilization, belowground richness, including seed and bud bank richness, remained less affected or even increased during land-use change. Overall, the proportion of plant species found only belowground as roots and rhizomes increased compared to aboveground, particularly in the abandonment with fertilization treatment plots. These results imply that belowground plant diversity, including roots, rhizomes, seed and bud bank could potentially buffer against biodiversity losses by slowing down species extinctions caused by land-use change. Our findings highlight that measuring the complete plant species diversity (above- and belowground) improves our understanding of processes that underlie plant diversity and coexistence and refine predictions of vegetation responses to biodiversity threats.
interface of lexical semantics and conceptual structure deverbal and denominal nominalizations
Creators: name: Von Heusinger, Klaus
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2002

description: Nominalizations can refer to events, instances of events or participants in an event. The particular reference is determined by the lexical semantics of the base and the suffix, and by the conceptual structure of the base. The comparison between deverbal and denominal nominalization in -ata in Italian reveals that the conceptual structure plays a crucial role in determining the reference of a nominalization. Italian nominalizations of -ata are productively derived from verbal and nominal bases. Derivations from verbal bases refer to a single event denoted by the base. Derivations from a nominal base N denote events or results corresponding to a limited number of pattems, such as a hit by N, a characteristic action of N, a period of N, a quantity that is contained in N, etc. The paper argues that the function of the suffix operates on the lexical meaning of the base, but the con~positiono f the lexical meaning of the base with the lexical meaning of the suffix is restricted by the conceptual properties of the base.

Word order patterns in Greek nominals: aspects of diachronic change
Creators: name: Alexiadou, Artemis
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2002

description: In this paper I investigate a change in the word order patterns of Greek nominalizations that took place from the Classical Greek (CG) period to the Modem Greek (MG) one. Specifically, in CG both the patterns in (A), with its two subtypes, and (B) were possible; the MG system, on the other hand, exhibits only the (B) pattern. The difference between the two systems is that agents can only be introduced in the form of prepositional phrase in MG nominals in a position following the head noun, while they could appear in a prenominal position bearing genitive case in CG. Moreover, the theme genitive, i.e. the objective genitive, could precede the head nominal in CG; this is no longer the case in MG, where the theme genitive follows the head noun obligatorily: (A) i) Det-(Genagent)-Nprocess-Gentheme 1 ii) Det-Gentheme-Nprocess (B)Det-Nprocess-Gentheme (Ppagent) I argue that the unavailability of (A) in MG is linked to the nature and the properties associated with a nominal functional projection contained within process non~inals and to other related changes in the nominal system of Greek.

description: The entropic formulation of the inertia and the gravity relies on quantum, geometrical and informational arguments. The fact that the results are completly classical is missleading. In this paper we argue that the entropic formulation provides new insights into the quantum nature of the inertia and the gravity. We use the entropic postulate to determine the quantum uncertainty in the law of inertia and in the law of gravity in the Newtonian Mechanics, the Special Relativity and in the General Relativity. These results are obtained by considering the most general quantum property of the matter represented by the Uncertainty Principle and by postulating an expression for the uncertainty of the entropy such that: i) it is the simplest quantum generalization of the postulate of the variation of the entropy and ii) it reduces to the variation of the entropy in the absence of the uncertainty.

Expectations Formation in Macroeconomic Agent-based Models
Creators: name: Reissl, Severin
Publisher: name: Universität Bielefeld
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: 330

description: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the role of expectations formation in agent-based and stock-flow consistent macroeconomic models. While there have been considerable advances in the development of such models, research on the formation and role of beliefs and expectations within them remains underdeveloped. The thesis consists of three papers, each of which focuses on expectations formation in one particular economic sector and presents a range of experiments concerning the variation of expectations formation mechanisms, belief and sentiment dynamics, as well as policy applications. The thesis demonstrates the potentially strong influence of agents' expectations on macroeconomic volatility and shows that depending on their specification as well as the economic environment, expectations can be both a stabilising and destabilising factor. Moreover, through the wide range of policy experiments conducted, it serves to emphasise the important role of stabilisation policies in systems exhibiting endogenous fluctuations and chapter 4 in particular highlights the potential dependence of policy effectiveness on expectations. At the same time, some of the obtained results caution that in complex systems, policy interventions must be carefully calibrated lest they themselves become a source of instability.
Nominalization and argument structure in Early New High German
Creators: name: Demske, Ulrike
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2002

description: Recent work on argument selection couched in a lexical decomposition approach (Ehrich & Rapp 2000) postulates different linking properties for verbs and nouns, challenging current views on argument inheritance. In this paper, I show that the different behavior with respect to verbal and nominal linking observed for Present-Day German does not carry over to ung-nominals in Early New High German. Deverbal nouns and corresponding verbs rather behave alike with respect to argument linking. I shall argue that this change is motivated by the growing rift between ung-nominals and their verbal bases both focussing on different parts oftheir lexicosemantic structure in Present-Day German. Evidence for the verb-like behavior of ung-nominals in Early New High German comes from the regular meaning relation between verbs and corresponding derived nouns, the actional properties of event-denoting nouns, and the patterning of ung-nominals with nominalized infinitives. Even their syntactic behavior reflects the verbal character of ung-nominals during that period of the German language. The diachronic facts can be accounted for in a straightforward way once we adopt a lexical decomposition approach to argument selection.

Maritime Communication in an International and Intercultural Discourse
Creators: name: Schriever, UG
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023
Subjects: Other language, communication and culture not elsewhere classified

description: The international maritime industry consists of a global web of shipping that covers the oceans and connects all continents on the earth. It brings together seafarers from a multitude of national, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds. The English language has emerged as the lingua franca of the sea. By consensus – and, indeed, by UN resolution – it is the most common means through which communication takes place wherever language barriers exist. This thesis explores the views mariners have on a common language and the English language in that role. It tries to identify non-English speaking background (NESB) people who appear to have greater difficulties in communicating in the tongue, and it investigates the possible existence of cultural, religious, ideological or political reasons for an aversion to English. It also makes an attempt to determine the usefulness of a standard coded language as in the Standard Maritime Communication Phrases (SMCP) and seeks to gain information about incidents in which misunderstanding played a part. It further tries to elicit statements from seafarers about English language proficiency among their colleagues in the industry and about a skill level to be attained by different ranks. The research was carried out using a qualitative and a quantitative approach. Twelve interviews with seafarers and marine pilots were conducted and 132 questionnaires received from members of 17 different nationalities. In addition, four case studies were examined and an observation by the author on a recent voyage from Singapore to Australia was described. The result of the investigation shows the overwhelming acceptance of English as the common means of communication, reveals several language groups which are perceived as hard to communicate with using maritime English, and finds some evidence of a resistance to the language. It also shows that the SMCP is not used to its full potential and that misunderstandings due to verbal and cultural barriers are still firmly in place. The present level of English proficiency is widely considered as wanting, and officers in particular were expected to reach a more advanced level of competence in the language.

description: It has been known that heterogeneous networks are vulnerable to the intentional removal of a small fraction of highly connected or loaded nodes, which implies that, to protect a network effectively, a few important nodes should be allocated with more defense resources than the others. However, if too many resources are allocated to the few important nodes, the numerous less-important nodes will be less protected, which, when attacked all together, still capable of causing a devastating damage. A natural question therefore is how to efficiently distribute the limited defense resources among the network nodes such that the network damage is minimized whatever attack strategy the attacker may take. In this paper, taking into account the factor of attack cost, we will revisit the problem of network security and search for efficient network defense against the cost-based attacks. The study shows that, for a general complex network, there will exist an optimal distribution of the defense resources, with which the network is well protected from cost-based attacks. Furthermore, it is found that the configuration of the optimal defense is dependent on the network parameters. Specifically, network that has a larger size, sparser connection and more heterogeneous structure will be more benefited from the defense optimization.

Nominalizations and temporal prepositions
Creators: name: Ehrich, Veronika
name: Rapp, Irene
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2002

description: In this paper, we deal with the semantic interaction between ung-nominalizations of different event types and temporal prepositions like wiihrend 'during', vor 'before', nach 'after', bis 'until' and seit 'since'. According to the two-level-approach to selnantics (Bierwisch 1983, Bierwisch / Lang 1989), we will argue that the meaning of ten~poral prepositions is determined on the level of semantic form (SF). When combined with an event nominal, the period in time required by the preposition has to be inferred on the level of conceptual structure (CS). Very often, the exact nature of the period in time is determined by pragmatic factors. There are, however, some important restrictions to this inference procedure which rely on the event noun's Aktionsart. In Ehrich/Rapp (2000), it was claimed that eventive ungnominals inherit the Aktionsart of their base verb. This assumption receives strong support by the data presented in this paper.

description: Molecular motors are essential components for the biophysical functions of the cell. Our current quantitative understanding of how multiple motors move along a single track is not complete; even though models and theories for single motor chemomechanics abound. Recently, M.J.I. M$\ddot{\rm u}$ller {\em et al.} have developed a tug-of-war model to describe the bidirectional movement of the cargo (PNAS(2008) 105(12) P4609-4614). Through Monte Carlo simulations, they discovered that the tug-of-war model exhibits several qualitative different motility regimes, which depend on the precise value of single motor parameters, and they suggested the sensitivity can be used by a cell to regulate its cargo traffic. In the present paper, we carry out a thorough analysis of the tug-of-war model. All the stable, i.e., biophysically observable, steady states are obtained. Depending on several parameters, the system exhibits either uni-, bi- or tristability. Based on the separating boundary of the different stable states and the initial numbers of the different motor species that are bound to the track, the steady state of the cargo movement can be predicted, and consequently the steady state velocity can be obtained. It is found that, the velocity, even the direction, of the cargo movement change with the initial numbers of the motors which are bound to the track and several other parameters.

It introduces a combination of an event-calculus with a type-free theory which allows a compositional description to be given of such phenomena like Vendler's distinction between perfect and imperfect nominals, iteration of gerunds and Cresswell's notorious non-urrival of'the train examples. Moreover, the approach argued for in this paper allows a semantic explanation to be given for a wide range of grammatical observations such as the behaviour of certain tpes of nominals with respect to their verbal contexts or the distribution of negation in nominals.

description: Let (G) be a connected compact non-abelian Lie-group and (T) a maximal torus of (G). A torus manifold with (G)-action is defined to be a smooth connected closed oriented manifold of dimension (2\dim T) with an almost effective action of (G) such that (M^T\neq \emptyset). We show that if there is a torus manifold (M) with (G)-action then the action of a finite covering group of (G) factors through (\tilde{G}=\prod SU(l_i+1)\times\prod SO(2l_i+1)\times \prod SO(2l_i)\times T^{l_0}). The action of (\tilde{G}) on (M) restricts to an action of (\tilde{G}'=\prod SU(l_i+1)\times\prod SO(2l_i+1)\times \prod U(l_i)\times T^{l_0}) which has the same orbits as the (\tilde{G})-action. We define invariants of torus manifolds with (G)-action which determine their (\tilde{G}')-equivariant diffeomorphism type. We call these invariants admissible 5-tuples. A simply connected torus manifold with (G)-action is determined by its admissible 5-tuple up to (\tilde{G})-equivariant diffeomorphism. Furthermore we prove that all admissible 5-tuples may be realised by torus manifolds with (\tilde{G}")-action where (\tilde{G}") is a finite covering group of (\tilde{G}').

description: This report focuses on six indigenous groups in countries across Latin America. The overarching interest of our research is on the ways that indigenous populations coexist harmoniously with nature, by respecting natural resources and the environment as part of their heritage of ancient cultures and lands. We selected six indigenous led social enterprises that illustrate how this respect for nature can be coupled with a different approach to development that simultaneously protects indigenous communities and their well-being. The lens through which we approach our analysis is the doctrine of Buen Vivir, which implies a holistic approach to living well—in harmony with nature, ensuring that everyone in the community is looked after and no one suffers from hardship. Each community operates their enterprise to benefit every member, including by reinvesting profits back into the communities. We find that these enterprises are very promising for protecting indigenous lands and traditions, while keeping out external enterprises keen on exploiting natural resources, while also offering alternatives to neoliberal forms of development. Our analysis reveals both the strengths and weaknesses of these social enterprises within the approach to Buen Vivir.

description: I begin with a proposed global phase diagram of the cuprate superconductors as a function of carrier concentration, magnetic field, and temperature, and highlight its connection to numerous recent experiments. The phase diagram is then used as a point of departure for a pedagogical review of various quantum phases and phase transitions of insulators, superconductors, and metals. The bond operator method is used to describe the transition of dimerized antiferromagnetic insulators between magnetically ordered states and spin-gap states. The Schwinger boson method is applied to frustrated square lattice antiferromagnets: phase diagrams containing collinear and spirally ordered magnetic states, Z_2 spin liquids, and valence bond solids are presented, and described by an effective gauge theory of spinons. Insights from these theories of insulators are then applied to a variety of symmetry breaking transitions in d-wave superconductors. The latter systems also contain fermionic quasiparticles with a massless Dirac spectrum, and their influence on the order parameter fluctuations and quantum criticality is carefully discussed. I conclude with an introduction to strong coupling problems associated with symmetry breaking transitions in two-dimensional metals, where the order parameter fluctuations couple to a gapless line of fermionic excitations along the Fermi surface.

On nonprimary selectional restrictions
Creators: name: Zhang, Niina
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: This paper argues for non-primary c- and s-selectional restrictions of verbs in computing nonprimary predicatives such as resultatives, depictives, and manners. Our discussion is based both on the selection violations in the presence of nonprimary predicates and on the cross-linguistic and language-internal variations of categorial and semantic constraints on nonprimary predicates. We claim that all types of thematic predication are represented by an extended projection, and that the merger of lexical heads with another element, regardless of the type of the element, consistently has c- and s-selectional restrictions.

Modification of anatase TiO$_2$(001) surface electronic structure by Au impurity

description: We have used density functional theory calculations based on the projector augmented wave method to investigate the electronic structure of Au-incorporated anatase TiO$_2$(001) surface. Due to the coordination with several level oxygens, Au atoms can be encapsulated inside TiO$_2$ slab. Au is adsorbed over the surface Ti--O bond, so called the bridge site on anatase TiO$_2$(001)--1$\times$1 surface. However, for 0.25 ML coverage, Au atoms energetically prefer to stay at 0.64 Å above the midpoint of the two surface oxygens which is significantly closer to the surface layer. When implanted inside the slab for full coverage, Au forms parallel metallic wires inside TiO$_2$ lattice where interlayer distances increase due to local segregation. Au brings half-filled impurity states into the band gap leading to metallization, in addition to other filled surface and impurity bands within the gap. These Au-driven Fermi-level-pinning gap states are close to, or even in some cases inside, the conduction band of the host slab. On the other hand, if Au is substituted for the surface Ti atom, Fermi level falls lower in the gap closer to the valence band top.

Case and event structure
Creators: name: Svenonius, Peter
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: I argue in this paper for a novel analysis of case in Icelandic, with implications for case theory in general. I argue that structural case is the manifestation on the noun phrase of features which are semantically interpretable only on verbal projections; thus, Icelandic case does not encode features of noun phrase interpretation, but it is not uninterpretable either; case is properly seen as reflecting (interpretable) tense and aspect features. Accusative case in Icelandic is available when the two subevents introduced in a transitive verb phrase are identified with each other, and dative case is available when the two parts are distinct (thus Icelandic case manifests aktionsart or inner aspect, in partial contrast to Finnish). This analysis bears directly on the theory of feature checking in the Minimalist Program; specifically, it paves the way for a restrictive theory of feature checking in which no features are strictly uninterpretable: all formal features come in interpretable-uninterpretable pairs, and feature checking is the matching of such pairs, driven by legibility conditions at Spell-Out.

What secondary predicates in Russian tell us about the link between tense, aspect and case
Creators: name: Richardson, Kylie
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: In this paper I show that the different case marking possibilities on predicate adjectives in depictive secondary predicates in Russian constitute the uninterpretable counterpart of the interpretable tense and aspect features of the adjective. Case agreement entails that the predicate adjective is non-eventive, i.e., it occurs when the event time of the secondary predicate is identical to the event time of the primary predicate. The instrumental case, however, entails that the secondary predicate is eventive: some change of state or transition occurred prior to or during the event time of the primary predicate. I claim that case agreement occurs in conjoined tense phrases in Russian, while the instrumental case occurs in adjoined aspectual phrases. In English, secondary predication is sensitive both to the structural location of its antecedent and to the event structure of the primary predicate. I suggest that depictives with subject antecedents in English are true adjunction structures, while those with direct object antecedents occur in a conjoined aspectual phrase. This hypothesis finds support in the different movement and semantic constraints in conjunction versus adjunction phrases in both English and Russian.

syntax of small clause predication
Creators: name: Rafel, Joan
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: In this paper I put forward and justify a syntactic configuration that I call Complex Small Clause-structure. I show that this single syntactic structure can explain both the semantic value and the syntactic behavior of a range of constructions that up to now have been explored separately and, hence, proposed divergent analyses among them.

Activated O2 dissociation and formation of oxide islands on the Be(0001) surface: Another atomistic model for metal oxidation

description: By simulating the dissociation of O2 molecules on the Be(0001) surface using the first-principles molecular dynamics approach, we propose a new atomistic model for the surface oxidation of sp metals. In our model, only the dissociation of the first oxygen molecule needs to overcome an energy barrier, while the subsequent oxygen molecules dissociate barrierlessly around the adsorption area. Consequently, oxide islands form on the metal surface, and grow up in a lateral way. We also discover that the firstly dissociated oxygen atoms are not so mobile on the Be(0001) surface, as on the Al(111) surface. Our atomistic model enlarges the knowledge on metal surface oxidations by perfectly explaining the initial stage during the surface oxidation of Be, and might be applicable to some other sp metal surfaces.

Small clause results revisited
Creators: name: Mateu, Jaume
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: The main purpose of this paper is to show that argument structure constructions like complex telic path of motion constructions (John walked to the store) or complex resultative constructions (The dog barked the chickens awake) are not to be regarded as "theoretical entities" (Jackendoff (1997b); Goldberg (1995)). As an alternative to these semanticocentric accounts, I argue that their epiphenomenal status can be shown iff we take into account some important insights from three syntactically-oriented works: (i) Hoekstra's (1988, 1992) analysis of SC R, (ii) Hale & Keyser's (1993f.) configurational theory of argument structure, and (iii) Mateu & Rigau’s (1999; i.p.) syntactic account of Talmy's (1991) typological distinction between 'satellite framed languages' (e.g., English, German, Dutch, etc.) and 'verb-framed languages' (e.g., Catalan, Spanish, French, etc.). In particular, it is argued that the formation of the abovementioned constructions involves a conflation process of two different syntactic argument structures, this process being carried out via a 'generalized transformation'. Accordingly, the so-called 'lexical subordination process' (Levin & Rapoport (1988)) is argued to involve a syntactic operation, rather than a semantic one. Due to our assuming that the parametric variation involved in the constructions under study cannot be explained in purely semantic terms (Mateu & Rigau (1999)), Talmy's (1991) typological distinction is argued to be better stated in lexical syntactic terms.

description: In this letter, we report a realization of synchronization-free quantum teleportation and narrowband three-photon entanglement through interfering narrowband photon sources. Since both the single-photon and the entangled photon pair utilized are completely autonomous, it removes the requirement of high demanding synchronization technique in long-distance quantum communication with pulsed spontaneous parametric down-conversion sources. The frequency linewidth of the three-photon entanglement realized is on the order of several MHz, which matches the requirement of atomic ensemble based quantum memories. Such a narrowband multi-photon source will have applications in some advanced quantum communication protocols and linear optical quantum computation.

description: The Josephson effect is a manifestation of the macroscopic phase coherence of superconductors and superfluids. We propose that with ultracold Fermi gases one can realise a spin-asymmetric Josephson effect in which the two spin components of a Cooper pair are driven asymmetrically - corresponding to driving a Josephson junction of two superconductors with different voltages V_\uparrow and V_\downarrow for spin up and down electrons, respectively. We predict that the spin up and down components oscillate at the same frequency but with different amplitudes. Our results reveal that the standard description of the Josephson effect in terms of bosonic pair tunnelling is insufficient. We provide an intuitive interpretation of the Josephson effect as interference in Rabi oscillations of pairs and single particles, the latter causing the asymmetry.

Secondary predication and default case
Creators: name: Jang, Youngjun
name: Kim, Siyoun
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: This paper compares secondary predication constructions (including small clause complements, resultatives, and/or depictives) in English and Korean and argues that these two typologically different languages employ different modes of satisfying the Case Filter (Chomsky 1981) with regard to the Case of the subjects of secondary predication constructions. More specifically, we argue that the subject of the secondary predicate in English is Accusative Case-marked by the higher governing verb, while that in Korean is Nominative Case-marked by default. Evidence for default Nominative Case will be provided from Korean and other languages.
