Sign language research in Ghana: An overview of indigenous and foreign-based sign languages
Creators: name: Edward, Mary
name: Akanlig-Pare, George
Publisher: name: Journal of African Languages and Literatures
Year: 2021

description: The recognition of sign language as a full-fledged human language with linguistics description has led to several research works in both theoretical and applied linguistics considering different aspects. The present study extends this research to the Ghanaian context, with the aim of providing an overview of past and current research on indigenous and foreign-based sign languages in Ghana. We considered published and unpublished works from Ghanaian and foreign researchers and synthesized these to know the areas that have been covered. We specifically explored research on indigenous sign languages in Ghana; the contributions of Dr Andrew Foster in sign language literacy; research on foreign-based sign languages in Ghana; language contact, language vitality, language documentation and other sociological issues. We discussed our findings with respect to the descriptive analysis of sign languages in Ghana: vitality and vulnerability of different sign languages in Ghana. Relevant to our paper is the vulnerability and the possible endangerment of indigenous sign languages in Ghana. We argue that indigenous sign languages in Ghana risk endangerment, whereas foreignbased sign languages have potential for development. We suggest the involvement of local linguists in documentation, research, and the analysis of SLs in Ghana to ensure the survival of indigenous SLs and increased research on SLs in Ghana.

Discourse organization in Gorwaa narratives: An exploratory overview
Creators: name: Mayer, Clemens J.
Publisher: name: Journal of African Languages and Literatures
Year: 2021

description: There are many ways in which a story can be told, and languages throughout time and across the world have developed strategies that work in tandem with their respective linguistic structure to create organized, coherent narratives. Gorwaa, a South Cushitic language spoken by around 133,000 people in the Tanzanian Rift Valley, also has a number of strategies included in a narrative structure, ranging from interjections, to complex referent tracking over long stretches of narrative, to discourse organization. In this article I will be specifically focusing on discourse organization, by which I mean the structuring of events as to create a coherent, understandable, sequence in a narrative using organizational tools such as interjections, discourse managing markers, and speaker-hearer interaction. All of these tools are employed frequently and in a plethora of different ways, creating an interesting narratival landscape while at the same time making sure the information flow remains coherent to the hearer. Additionally, Gorwaa shows a remarkable interconnection between lower-level discourse organizational elements, such as interjections and rhetorical questions, and the organization of a narrative as a whole – showcasing the importance of a broad perspective when analyzing narrative structures. The article first looks at the discourse organizing markers, interjections and conjunctions, and then looks at the construction of narratives in three major parts: introduction, intermediate speaker-hearer contact, and conclusions.

Neutron Star Binaries as Central Engines of GRBs

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We describe the results high resolution, hydrodynamic calculations of neutron star mergers. The model makes use of a new, nuclear equation of state, accounts for multi-flavour neutrino emission and solves the equations of hydrodynamics using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method with more than $10^6$ particles. The merger leaves behind a strongly differentially rotating central object of $\sim 2.5$ M$_{\odot}$ together with a distribution of hot debris material. For the most realistic case of initial neutron star spins, no sign of a collapse to a black hole can be seen. We argue that the differential rotation stabilizes the central object for $\sim 10^2$ s and leads to superstrong magnetic fields. We find the neutrino emission from the hot debris around the freshly-formed, supermassive neutron star to be substantially lower than predicted previously. Therefore the annihilation of neutrino anti-neutrino pairs will have difficulties to power very energetic bursts ($\gg 10^{49}$ erg).

description: Let $τ$ denote the Ramanujan tau function. One is interested in possible prime values of $τ$ function. Since $τ$ is multiplicative and $τ(n)$ is odd if and only if $n$ is an odd square, we only need to consider $τ(p^{2n})$ for primes $p$ and natural numbers $n \geq 1$. This is a rather delicate question. In this direction, we show that for any $ε> 0$ and integer $n \geq 1$, the largest prime factor of $τ(p^{2n})$, denoted by $P(τ(p^{2n}))$, satisfies $$ P(τ(p^{2n})) ~>~ (\log p)^{1/8}(\log\log p)^{3/8 -ε} $$ for almost all primes $p$. This improves a recent work of Bennett, Gherga, Patel and Siksek. Our results are also valid for any non-CM normalized Hecke eigenforms with integer Fourier coefficients.

description: A stochastic model for polarization switching in tetragonal ferroelectric ceramics is introduced, which includes sequential 90°- and parallel 180°-switching processes and accounts for the dispersion of characteristic switching times due to a nonuniform spatial distribution of the applied field. It presents merging of the recent multistep stochastic mechanism (MSM) with the earlier nucleation limited switching (NLS) and inhomogeneous field mechanism (IFM) models. The new model provides a much better description of simultaneous polarization and strain responses over a wide time window and a deeper insight into the microscopic switching mechanisms, as is exemplarily shown by comparison with measurements on lead zirconate titanate.

description: We study numerically stick slip motions in a model of blocks and springs being pulled slowly. The sliding friction is assumed to change dynamically with a state variable. The transition from steady sliding to stick-slip is subcritical in a single block and spring system. However, we find that the transition is continuous in a long chain of blocks and springs. The size distribution of stick-slip motions exhibits a power law at the critical point.

description: Volume and movement of data rapidly increasing in every type of data communications and networking, and ad hoc networks are not spared from these challenges. Traditional Multipath routing protocols in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) did not focus on data load distribution and balancing as much as required. In this scheme, we have proposed data load distribution and balancing through multiple paths simultaneously. We have considered three important parameters of ad hoc network those are: mobility of node, the energy of node and packet drop rate at a node. This scheme combines these three metrics using fuzzy logic to get the decisive parameter. We have shown improvement of this scheme over similar kind of protocols in NS-2 network simulator.

Negation in Kabyle (Berber)
Creators: name: Mettouchi, Amina
Publisher: name: Journal of African Languages and Literatures
Year: 2021

description: Berber languages display a number of characteristic asymmetries in negative utterances as compared to positive ones. This paper focuses on Kabyle, and analyzes its main typological characteristics concerning negation, namely an asymmetry at the level of the aspect-mood system, a binary distinction between two non-verbal negative predications (existential-locative and attributive-equative), as well as a postverbal ‘reinforcement’ strategy whose grammaticalization and prosody will be analyzed in detail. Other dimensions of negation are presented, in order to give an overview of the system as a whole. The synthesis puts the Kabyle system of negation into perspective within the Berber language family.

Abstract
Bremelanotide (Vyleesi™) is a melanocortin receptor agonist approved in the USA for the treatment of premenopausal women with acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), as characterized by low sexual desire that causes marked distress or interpersonal difficulty. It is a subcutaneously self-administered, on-demand therapy. Initially developed by Palatin Technologies who sponsored the Phase 3 clinical trials, bremelanotide was subsequently out-licensed to AMAG Pharmaceuticals Inc. for exclusive North American rights to develop and commercialize the drug, including submitting the New Drug Application to the US FDA. Bremelanotide is a synthetic peptide analogue of the neuropeptide hormone alpha melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) with high affinity for the melanocortin type 4 receptor (thought to be important for sexual function), giving it the potential to modulate brain pathways involved in sexual response. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of bremelanotide leading to this first regulatory approval.

description: Vertical-arrow fluctuations near the boundaries in the six-vertex model on the two-dimensional $N \times N$ square lattice with the domain wall boundary conditions are considered. The one-point correlation function (`boundary polarization') is expressed via the partition function of the model on a sublattice. The partition function is represented in terms of standard objects in the theory of orthogonal polynomials. This representation is used to study the large N limit: the presence of the boundary affects the macroscopic quantities of the model even in this limit. The logarithmic terms obtained are compared with predictions from conformal field theory.

description: This paper aims to offer an extra-phonological analysis for a purely phoneticphonological phenomenon: epenthetic glides in Taqbaylit. In this language, both epenthetic glides [j] and [w] may appear in specific contexts and are usually considered a hiatus-repairing strategy. We will discuss the different contexts where all types of glides appear and focus on the glides that are not lexically motivated. More precisely, we will discuss the epenthetic glides that surface at the junction between a noun/verb and their clitics. We aim at explaining and formalizing the distribution of epenthetic glides, whose motivation goes beyond phonology.

description: The existence of a spatially resolved Star-Forming Main Sequence (rSFMS) and a spatially resolved Mass-Metallicity Relation (rMZR) is now well established for local galaxies. Moreover, gradients with metallicity decreasing with radius seem to be common in local disc galaxies. These observations suggest that galaxy formation is a self-regulating process, and provide constraints for galaxy evolution models. Studying the evolution of these relations at higher redshifts is still however very challenging. In this paper, we analyse three gravitationally lensed galaxies at z = 0.6, 0.7 and 1, observed with MUSE and SINFONI. These galaxies are highly magnified by galaxy clusters, which allow us to observe resolved scaling relations and metallicity gradients on physical scales of a couple of hundred parsecs, comparable to studies of local galaxies. We confirm that the rSFMS is already in place at these redshifts on sub-kpc scales, and establish, for the first time, the existence of the rMZR at higher redshifts. We develop a forward-modelling approach to fit 2D metallicity gradients of multiply imaged lensed galaxies in the image plane, and derive gradients of -0.027+/-0.003, -0.019+/-0.003 and -0.039+/-0.060 dex/kpc. Despite the fact that these are clumpy galaxies, typical of high redshift discs, the metallicity variations in the galaxies are well described by global linear gradients, and we do not see any difference in metallicity associated with the star-forming clumps.

Transient X-ray Binaries in Elliptical Galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Chandra observations of elliptical galaxies have revealed large numbers of Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) accreting at rates above 10^-9 solar masses per year. One scenario which generates this transfer rate from an old stellar population is nuclear driven mass transfer onto a neutron star or black hole from a Roche lobe filling red giant. However, in our Galaxy, most of these systems accrete sporadically as transients due to a thermal instability in the accretion disk. Using the common criterion for disk instability (including irradiation), we find that this mode of mass transfer leads to transient accretion for at least 75% of the binary's life. Repeated Chandra observations of elliptical galaxies should reveal this population. The recurrence times might exceed 1000 years (depending on the orbital period at the onset of mass transfer), and outbursts might last for 1-100 years. Mass transfering binaries can also be formed in old populations via interactions in dense stellar environments, such as globular clusters. These tend to have shorter orbital periods and are more likely stable accretors, making them apparently a large fraction of the elliptical's LMXB population.

description: Under suitable assumptions on the boundary conditions, it is shown that there is a bijective correspondence between equivalence classes of asymptotic reducibility parameters and asymptotically conserved n-2 forms in the context of Lagrangian gauge theories. The asymptotic reducibility parameters can be interpreted as asymptotic Killing vector fields of the background, with asymptotic behaviour determined by a new dynamical condition. A universal formula for asymptotically conserved n-2 forms in terms of the reducibility parameters is derived. Sufficient conditions for finiteness of the charges built out of the asymptotically conserved n-2 forms and for the existence of a Lie algebra g among equivalence classes of asymptotic reducibility parameters are given. The representation of g in terms of the charges may be centrally extended. An explicit and covariant formula for the central charges is constructed. They are shown to be 2-cocycles on the Lie algebra g. The general considerations and formulas are applied to electrodynamics, Yang-Mills theory and Einstein gravity.

Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we explore a collapsing scenario in the background of energy-momentum squared gravity (EMSG). EMSG claims to have terms that originate from the quantum gravity effects mimicking loop quantum gravity. As a result, the framework admits a bounce at a finite time thus avoiding a singularity. So the question that naturally arises: Is there any realistic chance of the formation of a black hole or the quantum gravity effects are strong enough to totally avoid such a pathology? Motivated by this we are interested in studying a gravitational collapse mechanism in the background of EMSG and investigate the fate of such a process. We model the spacetime of a massive star by the Vaidya metric and derive the field equations in EMSG. Then using the equations we go on to study a gravitational collapse mechanism, on two specific models of EMSG with different forms of curvature-matter coupling. The prime objective is to probe the nature of singularity (if formed) as the end state of the collapse. We see that none of the models generically admit the formation of black holes as the end state of collapse, but on the contrary, they support the formation of naked singularities. This can be attributed to the quantum fluctuations of the gravitational interactions at the fundamental level.

Subjects: subject: 140304 Panel Data Analysis
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: It focuses on descriptors and correlative topics about social responsibility (SR) on Information Science (IS), with the purpose of identifying, ranking and relating descriptors that are found on dissertations presented at the PPGCI/UFPB from 1980 to 2010. In an amount of 48 descriptors, random sampling was applied. Such descriptors were decreased to a number of 38, so as to better represent them through graph. For data analysis and net construction, the Ucinet software was used. Such software assesses relation patterns and data associations with the application of peculiar measures. The combined use of methods and techniques has enabled the identification of both strong and weak connections of descriptors within the net as well as the existence of three kinds of relationship among them: communication relation, similarity and closeness ones.

description: In their paper Cohen and Rondoni severely question the physical relevance of studies of transport by means of multibaker maps and other classes of dynamics considering the motion of independen particles - like e.g. the Lorentz gas. We argue that this is to a large extent due to inappropriate interpretation of the models. In particular, the arguments concerning the lack of local thermodynamic equilibrium are inconsistent for the models previously worked out by ourselves.

description: Maximum gravitational wave emission from binary stars in eccentric orbits occurs near the periastron passage. We show that for a stationary distribution of binary neutron stars in the Galaxy, several high-eccentricity systems with orbital periods in the range from tens of minutes to several days should exist that emit broad gravitational-wave pulses in the frequency range 1-100 mHz. The space interferometer LISA could register the pulsed signal from these system at a signal-to-noise ratio level $S/N>5\sqrt{5}$ in the frequency range $\sim 10^{-3}-10^{-1}$ Hz during one-year observational time. Some detection algorithms for such a signal are discussed.

Detectable dimension-6 proton decay in SUSY SO(10) GUT at Hyper-Kamiokande

description: In the minimal SUSY SU(5) GUT with $O(1)$ TeV SUSY particles and $O(1)$ or below self-coupling for the GUT-breaking Higgs field, the width of the dimension-6 proton decay is suppressed below the reach of Hyper-Kamiokande. In this paper, we point out that a SUSY SO(10) GUT which adopts only ${\bf 45}_{\rm H}+{\bf 16}_{\rm H}+{\bf \overline{16}}_{\rm H}$ GUT-breaking Higgs fields leads to an enhanced dimension-6 proton decay width detectable at Hyper-Kamiokande. The enhancement is because the SU(5)-breaking VEV of ${\bf 45}_{\rm H}$ arises due to Planck-suppressed terms, $W\propto ({\bf 45}_{\rm H}^2)^2/M_*+{\bf 45}_{\rm H}^4/M_*$, and is therefore substantially larger than the other VEVs that conserve SU(5). As a result, the $({\bf 3},{\bf 2},1/6)$ GUT gauge boson mass is about $1/5$ smaller than the $({\bf 3},{\bf 2},-5/6)$ GUT gauge boson mass and can induce a fast dimension-6 proton decay. Through a numerical analysis on threshold corrections of the GUT gauge bosons and the physical components of the GUT-breaking Higgs fields, we confirm that the dimension-6 proton decay can be within the reach of Hyper-Kamiokande.

description: During transient events such as major solar eruptions, the plasma can be far from the equilibrium ionization state because of rapid heating or cooling. Non-equilibrium ionization~(NEI) is important in rapidly evolving systems where the thermodynamical timescale is shorter than the ionization or recombination time scales. We investigate the effects of NEI on EUV and X-ray observations by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board Solar Dynamic Observatory and X-ray Telescope (XRT) on board Hinode. Our model assumes that the plasma is initially in ionization equilibrium at low temperature, and it is heated rapidly by a shock or magnetic reconnection. We tabulate the responses of the AIA and XRT passbands as functions of temperature and a characteristic timescale, $n_{e}t$. We find that most of the ions reach equilibrium at $n_{e}t\leq$10$^{12}$ cm$^{-3}$s. Comparing ratios of the responses between different passbands allows us to determine whether a combination of plasmas at temperatures in ionization equilibrium can account for a given AIA and XRT observation. It also expresses how far the observed plasma is from equilibrium ionization. We apply the ratios to a supra-arcade plasma sheet on 2012 January 27. We find that the closer the plasma is to the arcade, the closer it is to a single-temperature plasma in ionization equilibrium. We also utilize the set of responses to estimate the temperature and density for shocked plasma associated with a coronal mass ejection on 2010 June 13. The temperature and density ranges we obtain are in reasonable agreement with previous works.

Characteristic polynomials of real symmetric random matrices

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It is shown that the correlation functions of the random variables $\det(λ- X)$, in which $X$ is a real symmetric $ N\times N$ random matrix, exhibit universal local statistics in the large $N$ limit. The derivation relies on an exact dual representation of the problem: the $k$-point functions are expressed in terms of finite integrals over (quaternionic) $k\times k$ matrices. However the control of the Dyson limit, in which the distance of the various parameters $\la$'s is of the order of the mean spacing, requires an integration over the symplectic group. It is shown that a generalization of the Itzykson-Zuber method holds for this problem, but contrary to the unitary case, the semi-classical result requires a {\it finite} number of corrections to be exact. We have also considered the problem of an external matrix source coupled to the random matrix, and obtain explicit integral formulae, which are useful for the analysis of the large $N$ limit.

Finally we explain the internal logic of digital consumption as a consumption upgrade tool and a higher valuation target in the context of China's economic performance in 2022 and the Chinese government's policy in 2023, leading to the investment strategy of roller conduction effect.

Dynamic nonlinearity in large scale dynamos with shear

name: Brandenburg, Axel
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We supplement the mean field dynamo growth equation with the total magnetic helicity evolution equation. This provides an explicitly time dependent model for alpha quenching in dynamo theory. For dynamos without shear, this approach accounts for the observed large scale field growth and saturation in numerical simulations. After a significant kinematic phase, the dynamo is resistively quenched, i.e. the saturation time depends on the microscopic resistivity. This is independent of whether or not the turbulent diffusivity is resistively quenched. We find that the approach is also successful for dynamos that include shear and exhibit migratory waves (cycles). In this case however, whether or not the cycle period remains of the order of the dynamical time scale at large magnetic Reynolds numbers does depend how on how the turbulent magnetic diffusivity quenches. Since this is unconstrained by magnetic helicity conservation, the diffusivity is presently an input parameter. Comparison to current numerical experiments suggests a turbulent diffusivity that depends only weakly on the magnetic Reynolds number, but higher resolution simulations are needed.
