description: Estimating the age distribution of mosquito populations is not only crucial for assessing their capacity to transmit malaria but it can also be used to determine the efficacy of vector control programs against mosquito vectors. Vector age grading tools that can rapidly and cost-effectively determine the age of large numbers of mosquito populations are required. The first objective of this study was to evaluate protein expression changes occurring in the heads and thoraces of laboratory reared Anopheles gambiae s.s. Giles from Ifakara and Anopheles stephensi Liston New Delhi strain relative to their age. Protein expression was assessed using 2D-Difference Gel Electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and the identity of differentially expressed proteins was determined using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization (MALDI) / tandem time-of-flight (TOF/TOF) mass spectrometry and by matching peptides to published An. gambiae protein database. In two separately reared cohorts of An. stephensi, a total of 702 and 691 spots were detected from cohort one and cohort two respectively. Of these, 3.8% (N=27) and 13% (N = 90) were found to be differentially expressed in cohorts one and two, respectively. Nineteen protein spots were shared between the two cohorts. For An. gambiae, 754 and 585 protein spots were present on 2D fusion images from cohort one and cohort two, respectively. 3.6% (N = 27) of cohort one spots and 5% (N = 30) of cohort two spots were found to change significantly in expression with age. However, only nine spots were shared between the two cohorts. Six An. gambiae and nine An. stephensi protein spots that were shared between cohorts were significantly matched to published An. gambiae sequences within a compiled UniProtKB database. The proteins identified included; AGAP012056; referred to as Actin Depolymerising Factor (ADF) from An. stephensi and probable Methylmalonate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase mitochondrial acylating protein (MMSA) from An. gambiae.
Fragmented Allegories of National Authenticity:  Art and Politics of  the Iranian New Wave Cinema, 1960-79

description: The New Wave (Moj-e Now), as the rather large body of “quality films” made in Iran before the 1979 revolution came to be known, forms the main thematic concern of this study. From start to end, however, this primary track of investigation is opened up to other mediums of cultural production: modernist Persian fiction and poetry, the visual arts scene, the discourse on ethnography and “folklore studies,” and the critical texts produced by public intellectuals. The second main theme coming to the fore is the intersection of the emergent “discourse of authenticity,” the Iranian intellectuals’ growing demand for “cultural rootedness,” and the production of modernist aesthetics in literature, arts, and cinema. Introduced early in the text, the idea of “modernism of uneven development” provides the theoretical frame for this project; the recurrences of the hypothesis, particularly as it pertains to a temporal divide between the city and the countryside, are discerned and analysed.
      The Iranian New Wave Cinema, I contend, always showed an ethnographic register, as it too was after worlds and times deemed as vanishing. This “movement” in cinematic modernism first emerged from within the documentary mode, which began to flourish in Iran from the 1960s. Cutting right across this study, the perceived divide between the urban and the rural finds its reflection even in the way that some of its chapters are organized. Hence, the allegory of the city, and that of the country. But, where ends the national allegory, a matter still conditional on imagined continuity, other forms of allegory come to the surface. Critical reading in this sense becomes an act of reproduction, further opening up fissures and discontinuities of what is already deemed as petrified, whether of the national or of realism. Retaining a faith in the cinema’s ability to redeem physical reality though, certain manifestations of materiality come to the fore through my close readings of films from the New Wave. A number of these material formations come to focus as the “objects” of the study: the museum display, the ruin, the body, the mud brick wall, the moving car, and the old neighborhood passageway.

description: The objective of this research is to examine the role of local governments and administrative boundaries in perpetuating the exclusion of marginalized populations in St. Louis County, Missouri. Through a mixed methods approach of qualitative and quantitative analysis, this work aims to understand the relationship between municipal boundaries and population distributions. Primary source research includes analysis of local statutes to understand the legal framework through which municipalities are created in the St. Louis context. The quantitative methods used in this study utilize Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to analyze existing United States Census Bureau demographic data, St. Louis political administrative boundaries and Land Use Parcel Data. Qualitative methods include semi-structured interviews with members of the St. Louis community to further understand the local experience of municipal fragmentation and resulting regional disparities.

description: Psychological stress may be linked to cancer incidence; however, more direct evidence is required to support this viewpoint. In this study, we investigated the effects of stress on immunosurveillance against cancer cells using a previously established examination stress model. We showed that the cancer killing activity (CKA) of granulocytes (also known as polymorphic nuclear cells, PMNs) is sharply reduced during examination stress stimulation in some donors who are psychologically sensitive to examination stress, with the concentration of plasma stress hormones (cortisone, epinephrine, and norepinephrine) increasing accordingly. The effects of stress hormones on immune cell CKA were also investigated under two in vitro co-incubation conditions, with all three hormones found to exert inhibitory effects on the CKA of PMNs and mononuclear cells. We showed that stress triggered the release of stress hormones which had profound inhibitory effects on the innate anticancer functions of PMNs. These results provide a possible explanation for the relationship between psychological stress and cancer incidence.

description: Large skyrmion bubbles in confined geometries of various sizes and shapes are investigated, typically in the range of several micrometers. Two fundamentally different cases are studied to address the role of dipole-dipole interactions: (I) when there is no magnetic material present outside the small geometries and (II) when the geometries are embedded in films with a uniform magnetization. It is found that the preferential position of the skyrmion bubbles can be controlled by the geometrical shape, which turns out to be a stronger influence than local variations in material parameters. In addition, independent switching of the direction of the magnetization outside the small geometries can be used to further manipulate these preferential positions, in particular with respect to the edges. We show by numerical calculations that the observed interactions between the skyrmion bubbles and structure edge including the overall positioning of the bubbles are fully controlled by dipole-dipole interactions.

description: Habitat fragmentation is a major threat to global biodiversity. Improving habitat connectivity through wildlife corridors remains a primary instrument to mitigate the threats of habitat fragmentation. Large-bodied, charismatic, and wide-ranging large carnivores such as tiger Panthera tigris are often used for connectivity planning because of their unique life history traits, i.e., dispersal dependent, large home range, and potential role as an umbrella or conservation flagship species. Maintaining habitat connectivity is crucial to global tiger conservation, especially in countries like Nepal, where tiger populations have nearly tripled since 2010. Aligning with the objectives outlined in several Nepalese Government conservation plans to improve connectivity among protected areas (PAs), this thesis aims to (i) identify potential corridors for tigers in the Terai Arc Landscape in Nepal (TAL-Nepal) and (ii) assess the perceptions and preferences of the local communities towards tiger corridors that can help with the establishment and management of identified corridors.

Marine reclamation: recovery of the sea floor community following mine tailing discharge
Creators: name: Taylor, Laura
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Information on benthic colonization will further improve our understanding of the long-term impacts of mine tailing discharge upon benthic communities. Such knowledge is required to determine the recovery rate of benthic communities, and in establishing whether they eventually return to their predischarge state, or if a new and different community results. Further, benthic colonization studies may be useful in ascertaining if, and how, to diminish impacts by providing necessary background information for the development of reclamation and mitigation procedures. Thus, through implementation of sound resource management practices, it may be possible to substantially improve benthic habitat. Environmental regulatory agencies and industry may also refer to benthic colonization research when designing monitoring procedures, and establishing regulations for future marine tailing disposal systems.

description: The important role of retail trips in the overall transport sustainability of cities in Australia has been broadly overlooked within travel demand management programs (TDMs). Brisbane, as the third largest city in Australia, has undergone fast and extensive urban development and become heavily reliant on an increasing number of shopping centres to provide its residents with products, services, leisure and lifestyle opportunities. Based on the 2009 Household Travel Survey data, shopping centres were the destination for more than half of weekly ‘retail trips’ in Brisbane. The evolving structure of a modern one-stop, multi-purpose retail format provides more options to customers who rely on their cars to travel to shopping destinations. The evident economic success of these centres over recent decades has made their owners and operators powerful and wealthy and consequently hard to compete with. Planning policies such as zoning, required Environmental Impact Assessments, and transit-oriented developments (TODs) have tried to control the wide-ranging impacts of these shopping centres. However, these policies have not typically been accepted by developers and land owners and have not proved to be successful.

description: This thesis examines four iconic piano works composed from 1949 to 1952 in relation to the discipline of music analysis: Olivier Messiaen’s Mode de valeurs et d’intensités (1949), Pierre Boulez’s Structures Ia for two pianos (1952), Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Klavierstück III (1952) and John Cage’s Music of Changes (1951). The primary aim is to investigate how music analysis has engaged with these four works over the last fifty years. Investigating the nature and content of earlier analyses reveals various aspects of the discipline: its aims and functions, its governing ideologies and, most importantly, its achievements. This investigation also allows for recent criticism of the discipline of music analysis to be reconsidered. In total, 29 analyses of the four works are closely evaluated. Building on these observations, the author contributes a further perspective on each work by offering her own analytical insights, at times challenging some of the common analytical approaches to them. Rather than applying an analytical system based on a particular theory, concepts from each composer’s own writings and theories are used to provide an appropriate analytical angle. This approach recognises that analysis should be a meaningful dialectic between the conceptual understanding of compositional theory and the perceptual experience of surface musical phenomena.

description: We consider the problem of finding commuting self-adjoint extensions of the partial derivatives {(1/i)(\partial/\partial x_j):j=1,...,d} with domain C_c^\infty(Ω) where the self-adjointness is defined relative to L^2(Ω), and Ωis a given open subset of R^d. The measure on Ωis Lebesgue measure on R^d restricted to Ω. The problem originates with I.E. Segal and B. Fuglede, and is difficult in general. In this paper, we provide a representation-theoretic answer in the special case when Ω=I\timesΩ_2 and I is an open interval. We then apply the results to the case when Ωis a d-cube, I^d, and we describe possible subsets Λof R^d such that {e^(i2πλ\dot x) restricted to I^d:λ\inΛ} is an orthonormal basis in L^2(I^d).

description: In this work, the ability of rare VHE gamma ray selection with neural network methods is investigated in the case when cosmic radiation flux strongly prevails (ratio up to {10^4} over the gamma radiation flux from a point source). This ratio is valid for the Crab Nebula in the TeV energy range, since the Crab is a well-studied source for calibration and test of various methods and installations in gamma astronomy. The part of TAIGA experiment which includes three Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes observes this gamma-source too. Cherenkov telescopes obtain images of Extensive Air Showers. Hillas parameters can be used to analyse images in standard processing method, or images can be processed with convolutional neural networks. In this work we would like to describe the main steps and results obtained in the gamma/hadron separation task from the Crab Nebula with neural network methods. The results obtained are compared with standard processing method applied in the TAIGA collaboration and using Hillas parameter cuts. It is demonstrated that a signal was received at the level of higher than 5.5σ in 21 hours of Crab Nebula observations after processing the experimental data with the neural network method.

description: The exchange-only virial relation due to Levy and Perdew is revisited. Invoking the adiabatic connection, we introduce the exchange energy in terms of the right-derivative of the universal density functional w.r.t. the coupling strength $λ$ at $λ=0$. This agrees with the Levy-Perdew definition of the exchange energy as a high-density limit of the full exchange-correlation energy. By relying on $v$-representability for a fixed density at varying coupling strength, we prove an exchange-only virial relation without an explicit local-exchange potential. Instead, the relation is in terms of a limit ($λ\searrow 0$) involving the exchange-correlation potential $v_\mathrm{xc}^λ$, which exists by assumption of $v$-representability. On the other hand, a local-exchange potential $v_\mathrm{x}$ is not warranted to exist as such a limit.

description: We consider a quasi one-dimensional chain of N chaotic scattering elements with periodic boundary conditions. The classical dynamics of this system is dominated by diffusion. The quantum theory, on the other hand, depends crucially on whether the chain is disordered or invariant under lattice translations. In the disordered case, the spectrum is dominated by Anderson localization whereas in the periodic case, the spectrum is arranged in bands. We investigate the special features in the spectral statistics for a periodic chain. For finite N, we define spectral form factors involving correlations both for identical and non-identical Bloch numbers. The short-time regime is treated within the semiclassical approximation, where the spectral form factor can be expressed in terms of a coarse-grained classical propagator which obeys a diffusion equation with periodic boundary conditions. In the long-time regime, the form factor decays algebraically towards an asymptotic constant. In the limit $N\to\infty$, we derive a universal scaling function for the form factor. The theory is supported by numerical results for quasi one-dimensional periodic chains of coupled Sinai billiards.

description: If a (possibly finite) compact Lie group acts effectively, locally linearly, and homologically trivially on a closed, simply-connected four-manifold with second Betti number at least three, then it must be isomorphic to a subgroup of S^1 x S^1, and the action must have nonempty fixed-point set. Our results strengthen and complement recent work by Edmonds, Hambleton and Lee, and Wilczynski, among others. Our tools include representation theory, finite group theory, and Borel equivariant cohomology.
description: This is a substantially revised and shortened version. The argument has been streamlined by a more natural organization of the "minimal bad" cases and a much simplified treatment of rank 2 nonabelian groups (such as the eight-element dihedral group) using results from "Four-manifolds which admit Z_p x Z_p actions" (math.GT/0002187). The main result has also been sharpened slightly by appeal to the G-signature theorem, and now covers manifolds with the cohomology of CP^2 # CP^2. 15 pages, LaTeX

description: Burst oscillations are brightness asymmetries that develop in the burning ocean during thermonuclear bursts on accreting neutron stars. They have been observed during H/He-triggered (Type I) bursts and Carbon-triggered superbursts. The mechanism responsible is not unknown, but the dominant burst oscillation frequency is typically within a few Hz of the spin frequency, where this is independently known. One of the best-studied burst oscillation sources, 4U 1636-536, has oscillations at $581\,\text{Hz}$ in both its regular Type I bursts and in one superburst. Recently however, Strohmayer \& Mahmoodifar reported the discovery of an additional signal at a higher frequency, $835\,\text{Hz}$, during the superburst. This higher frequency is consistent with the predictions for several types of global ocean mode, one of the possible burst oscillation mechanisms. If this is the case then the same physical mechanism may operate in the normal Type I bursts of this source. In this paper we report a stacked search for periodic signals in the regular Type I bursts: we found no significant signal at the higher frequency, with upper limits for the single trial root mean square (rms) fractional amplitude of 0.57(6)\%. Our analysis did however reveal that the dominant $581\,\text{Hz}$ burst oscillation signal is present at a weak level even in the sample of bursts where it cannot be detected in individual bursts. This indicates that any cutoff in the burst oscillation mechanism occurs below the detection threshold of existing X-ray telescopes.

Fragmented Geographies: The See of Alexandria, Its Following, and the Estrangements of Modernity

description: This dissertation focuses on the ecclesiastical formation of the Anti-Chalcedonian Alexandrian See and its following, primarily during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. For hundreds of years, this Christian Orthodox communion had a distinctive "geography" which, in a sense, has been "carved up" in the modern period. Today, its territories are incorporated within the boundaries of a number of national states, while the sweeping abstraction of "world regions" has bisected the territorial reaches of communion, assigning one parcel to the "Middle East" and the other to "Africa." This fragmentation is reflected in the scholarship, where the "parts" of this geography have been scattered across multiple, and sometimes mutually isolated fields of inquiry. In the coming chapters, we set out in search of an Alexandrian Orthodox Oecumeme which modern discourses, constructs and analytical frames have concealed. We will shed light on various dimensions of a formation which was constituted by myriad relationships and characterized by nebulous frontiers. We will contemplate an arrangement in which "Egyptian" Copts, "Ethiopian" Orthodox and others were linked in shared communion, while situating this within the wider context of an ancien regime order. We will also explore the metaphorical hinterlands of communion, where manifold relationships existed linking Christians and Muslims, monks and bedouin and others, sometimes in most intimate ways. Over the course of these chapters, we will follow processes, discourses and conceptual changes of the nineteenth century that invaded the "hinterlands," severing and reordering relationships while gradually erecting an edifice of boundaried constructs (territorial, institutional, communal.) The exploration of these novelties, together with a host of starkly drawn binaries (among them "religious"/"secular" and "spiritual"/"temporal") will provide insights into the emergence of modern nation-states, national minorities and national churches. But the apparition of these restricting and fragmenting objects coincided with an apparently paradoxical development; the so-called "globalization" of the patriarchal see of Alexandria. This set of circumstances is inexplicable without a rigorous inquiry into the profound transformations that have characterized the modern period. The coming chapters constitute, collectively, a building block to this larger purpose.

description: Der vorliegende Bericht gibt einen Überblick zu den wichtigsten Faktoren, welche durch ihre Interaktionen die Vulnerabilität des Weinbaus an der Mittelmosel vor dem Hintergrund des Klimawandels bestimmen. Hierbei steht die im Projekt Mosel-AdapTiV kooperierende Kommune Traben-Trarbach exemplarisch für eine Vielzahl von Weinbauorten im Untersuchungsgebiet. Neben den direkten klimawandelinduzierten Auswirkungen im Weinbau wird ein besonderer Fokus auf den regionalspezifischen Kontext der Mittelmosel gelegt. Die sich aus dieser Betrachtung ergebenden sozioökonomischen, politisch-administrativen und kulturellen Faktoren der „kontextuellen Vulnerabilität“ werden identifiziert und hinsichtlich ihrer Wirkung auf Problembewusstsein, regionale Anpassungskapazitäten und konkretes Anpassungshandeln bewertet. Die vorliegende Analyse kontextueller Vulnerabilität des Weinbausektors an der Mittelmosel zeigt, dass trotz eines ausgeprägten Problembewusstseins gegenüber Klimawandelfolgen eine Vielzahl regionalspezifischer Faktoren die Anpassungskapazitäten der Akteur*innen begrenzen. Als konkrete Faktoren sind die traditionellen Betriebsformen vor dem Hintergrund des fortschreitenden Strukturwandels, eine stetige Erweiterung des Aufgabenspektrums der Winzer*innen, die Abhängigkeit von Riesling als regionale Leitsorte sowie die fehlende finanzielle Ausstattung der Kommunen, die Möglichkeiten für eine transformative Anpassungspolitik eingrenzen zu nennen. Aus dem Zusammenspiel dieser unterschiedlichen Faktoren ergeben sich nur gering ausgeprägte kommunale und lokale Anpassungskapazitäten. Empirisch basiert der Bericht auf einer Auswertung relevanter Literatur, verschiedener Datenquellen sowie mehreren qualitativen Interviews mit Akteur*innen vor Ort. Ebenfalls baut er auf den Ergebnissen eines Lehrforschungsprojekts der Universität Trier aus den Jahren 2016/17 auf (Bruns, 2020).

Semiclassical theory for many-body Fermionic systems

description: We present a treatment of many-body Fermionic systems that facilitates an expression of the well-known quantities in a series expansion of the Planck's constant. The ensuing semiclassical result contains to a leading order of the response function the classical time correlation function of the observable followed by the Weyl-Wigner series, on top of these terms are the periodic-orbit correction terms. The treatment given here starts from linear response assumption of the many-body theory and in its connection with semiclassical theory, it makes no assumption of the integrability of classical dynamics underlying the one-body quantal system. Applications of the framework are also discussed.

description: In 1971, on the eve of his retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, Walker Evans declared his photographs to be “documentary style” rather than documents. “A document has use, whereas art is really useless,” Evans would claim. “Therefore art is never a document, though it certainly can adopt that style.” Yet, the photographer produced the majority of his pictures as documents for various individuals and institutions throughout his life. How, then, does one reconcile this tension between the work of art and its contexts, between the photograph and its various uses, between individual autonomy and the institutions of photography in Evans’s career? This dissertation seeks to elucidate this dichotomy within the changing contexts for photography from the early 1930s to the mid-1970s. Three chapters focus on key contexts for the production and dissemination of Evans’s work. The Introduction revisits the literature on Evans and the issues of context versus style in the history of photography. The problem of “documentary style” in the 1930s is addressed in Chapter One, which examines the overlooked context of architectural surveys during that decade. Two explores how Evans engaged with mass culture through independent projects, commissioned photo essays, and his job as photographic editor at Fortune magazine from 1948 to 1965. After thirty years of working for magazines, Evans became a professor of photography at Yale University. Three exhumes his role as a theorist and didact, examining how he crafted new interpretations of his photographs and photography that suited the new institutional contexts of the art world. Through both his pictures, writings, and their presentations, Evans continually worked with and against his contexts.
