The Struggle for Literacy in Korea: An examination of literacy and the power of language in Korea, 1392-1945
Creators: Cadavid, Francisco
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Literacy
History

description: Traditional narratives tend to break Korean history into two periods: the pre-modern and the modern. In addition, each scholar has his or her own temporal dividing line separating these two periods, whether it be a specific year, or a range of years. Regardless of differing opinions and different markers for what determines "modernity," all of these historical narratives have one thing in common: they split Korean history in two. Despite this artificial split created by many an academic work, several aspects of Korea's long history can serve as a continuous link between the pre-modern and modern periods as a way to challenge the notion of forcing the need to create a definite dividing line between two historical periods. This paper will examine one such of those aspects. I will argue that Korean history, from the ChosÇ’n period through the colonial period, has been marked by a societal struggle for literacy. In other words, literacy, at various stages in Korean history, has served as the locus of power that has manifested itself in a myriad of forms. Furthermore, I will examine literacy as a vehicle for linking such disparate members of society as Neo-Confucian literati during the Imjin War and Korean independence activists of the early 20th century.

description: We discuss the problem of characterizing upper bounds on entanglement in a bipartite quantum system when only the reduced density matrices (marginals) are known. In particular, starting from the known two-qubit case, we propose a family of candidates for maximally entangled mixed states with respect to fixed marginals for two qudits. Interestingly, it turns out such states are always quasidistillable. Moreover, they are extremal in the convex set of two qudit states with fixed marginals. Our observations are supported by numerical analysis.

The Subject of Feelings: Emotion, Kinship, Fiction, and Women’s Culture in Korea,  Late 17th—Early 20th Centuries
Creators: Chizhova, Ksenia

Subjects: Emotions in literature

description: This dissertation traces the discourse of emotion embodied in the lineage novel (kamun sosŏl 家門小說), a genre that circulated from the late seventeenth until the early twentieth century and was intimately related to the flourishing women’s culture of Chosŏn Korea (1392-1910). Sagas in hundreds of manuscript volumes, lineage novels trace the lives of multiple generations of established civil lineages. Comprised of stories of rise and fall of family fortunes, foreign expeditions, court intrigues, and personal confrontations that often reach cataclysmic dimension, the lineage novel is an encyclopedia of human experience and a literary form that developed in parallel to the establishment of Korea’s patriarchal lineage structure in the seventeenth century. Just as it valorizes the fundamental premises of the patriarchal lineage, the lineage novel affirms private feelings as inalienable ingredient of authentic personal histories and the fabric of domestic life. While sharing its origin with other genres of writing lineage, such as genealogies, family histories, and commemorative texts, the material shape of the lineage novel, which circulated exclusively in manuscript form, is embedded in women’s practice of vernacular calligraphy: manuscript inscriptions reveal the untiring work of female scribers who reproduced these massive texts. The novels themselves create a sophisticated conception, in which the patriarchal vision of people’s relationships is extended to account for intimacies and passions that are omitted from the Confucian norm. The early-twentieth-century chapter of the lineage novel’s history, moreover, tells us of the curious metamorphoses of literary genres and reading audiences of the time, while also providing a comparative hermeneutic angle upon the discourse of emotion in “modern” Korean literature and particularly its harbinger, Yi Kwangsu’s 1917 novel The Heartless (Mujŏng).

description: Population dynamics deals with the collective phenomena of living organisms, and it has attracted much attention since it is expected to explain how not only living organisms but also human beings have been adapted to varying environments. However, it is quite difficult to insist on a general statement on living organisms since mathematical models heavily depend on phenomena that we focus on. Recently it was reported that the fluctuation relations on the fitness of living organisms held for a quite general problem setting. But, interactions between organisms were not incorporated in the problem setting, though interaction plays critical roles in collective phenomena in physics and population dynamics. In this paper, we propose interacting models for population dynamics and provide the perturbative theory of population dynamics. Then, we derive the variational principle and fluctuation relations for interacting population dynamics.

The Study of Transition Metal Oxides using Dynamical Mean Field Theory
Creators: Dang, Hung The
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2013
Subjects: Physics

description: In this thesis, we study strong electron correlation in transition metal oxides. In the systems with large Coulomb interaction, especially the on-site interaction, electrons are much more correlated and cannot be described using traditional one-electron picture, thus the name "strongly correlated systems". With strong correlation, there exists a variety of interesting phenomena in these systems that attract long-standing interests from both theorists and experimentalists. Transition metal oxides (TMOs) play a central role in strongly correlated systems, exhibiting many exotic phenomena. The fabrication of heterostructures of transition metal oxides opens many possible directions to control bulk properties of TMOs as well as revealing physical phases not observed in bulk systems.

Dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) emerges as a successful numerical method to treat the strong correlation. The combination of density functional and dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) is a prospective ab initio approach for studying realistic strongly correlated materials. We use DMFT as well as DFT+DMFT methods as main approaches to study the strong correlation in these materials.

We focus on some aspects and properties of TMOs in this work. We study the magnetic properties in bulk TMOs and the possibility of enhancing the magnetic order in TMO heterostructures. We work on the metallic/insulating behaviors of these systems to understand how the metal-insulator transition depends on the intrinsic parameters of materials. We also investigate the effect of a charged impurity to the neighborhood of a correlated material, which can be applied, for example, to the study of muon spin relaxation measurements in high-Tc superconductors.

It is shown that the coupling $λ_{cN}(t)$ at which the $N$-th moment $$ diverges at time $t$, is always less or equal for ${\cal D}>0$ than for ${\cal D}=0$. Equality holds under some reasonable assumptions on $C$ and, in this case, $λ_{cN}(t)=Nλ_c(t)$ where $λ_c(t)$ is the value of $λ$ at which $$ diverges. The ${\cal D}=0$ case is solved for a class of $S$. The dependence of $λ_{cN}(t)$ on $d$ is analyzed. Similar behavior is conjectured when diffusion is replaced by diffraction, ${\cal D}\to i{\cal D}$, the case of interest for backscattering instabilities in laser-plasma interaction.

description: This dissertation explores the effects of postwar suburbanization on American Catholicism by studying the dioceses of metropolitan New York, especially the creation and expansion of the Diocese of Rockville Centre in suburban Long Island. Throughout the 1960s the Diocese of Rockville Centre was one of the fastest growing Catholic communities in the country and was hailed as the nation’s first suburban diocese and a model for the future of the U.S. Church. The project details how Catholic pastoral leaders grappled with the rapid exodus of the faithful from urban ethnic neighborhoods to newly built suburbs, and how Catholic sociologists and intellectuals assessed the effects of suburbanization. I argue that postwar suburbanization revolutionized the sacred space of the parish, the relationship between clergy and laity, and conceptions of Catholic education. In suburbia the communal life of the ethnic parish yielded to the nuclear family and the home, the dominance of the clergy gave way to lay leadership and initiative, and devotion to parochial schools declined in favor of participation in public education. Suburbanization was thus a crucial catalyst of religious reform even before the Second Vatican Council. Similarly, suburbanization transformed Catholic participation in American politics. The economics of suburbia drove Catholic voters to prioritize tax relief and local control of public schools over the bishops’ demands for state funding of private schools. Suburban Catholics thus contributed to the growth of postwar conservatism and to the development of the culture wars that reconfigured American politics through the 1960s and 70s.

We analyze the kinetic behavior of localized excitations - solitons, breathers and phonons - in Sine-Gordon model. Collision integrals for all type of localized excitation collision processes are constructed, and the kinetic equations are derived. We prove that the entropy production in the system of localized excitations takes place only in the case of inhomogeneous distribution of these excitations in real and phase spaces. We derive transport equations for soliton and breather densities, temperatures and mean velocities i.e. show that collisions of localized excitations lead to creation of diffusion, thermoconductivity and intrinsic friction processes. The diffusion coefficients for solitons and breathers, describing the diffusion processes in real and phase spaces, are calculated. It is shown that diffusion processes in real space are much faster than the diffusion processes in phase space.

iPod (Digital music player)

description: For the millions of Americans who use it, the iPod has changed the way we ‘receive’ music. I place an emphasis on receive because it refers to both the consumerist act of ‘purchasing’ and the inherent act of ‘listening’ to sound. Essentially, there are two properties that the iPod and its inexorable cousins of multiple musical trading platforms have brought, or at least accelerated, to music that perpetuate this shift—availability and accessibility. Availability has delimited the boundaries, both physical and cultural, of what music we can learn of, listen to, and acquaint ourselves with. Accessibility has provided us with hours of recorded material in a device that is, at times, the size of a postage stamp and can cost less than concert tickets. This has made music a part of everyday life regardless of who one is, what his or her knowledge of music may be, or the social class he or she belongs to. Together, these two properties have allowed recorded music to become as ubiquitous as any other sound of living—natural or industrial, urban or rural.

description: We study several probability distributions relevant to the avalanche dynamics of elastic interfaces driven on a random substrate: The distribution of size, duration, lateral extension or area, as well as velocities. Results from the functional renormalization group and scaling relations involving two independent exponents, roughness $ζ$, and dynamics $z$, are confronted to high-precision numerical simulations of an elastic line with short-range elasticity, i.e. of internal dimension $d=1$. The latter are based on a novel stochastic algorithm which generates its disorder on the fly. Its precision grows linearly in the time-discretization step, and it is parallelizable. Our results show good agreement between theory and numerics, both for the critical exponents as for the scaling functions. In particular, the prediction ${\sf a} = 2 - \frac{2}{d+ ζ- z}$ for the velocity exponent is confirmed with good accuracy.

Error of semiclassical eigenvalues in the semiclassical limit - An asymptotic analysis of the Sinai billiard
Creators: name: Dahlqvist, P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)

description: We estimate the error in the semiclassical trace formula for the Sinai billiard under the assumption that the largest source of error is due to Penumbra diffraction, that is diffraction effects for trajectories passing within a distance R O((kR)^(-2/3) to the disk and trajectories being scattered in very forward directions. Here k is the momentum and R the radius of the scatterer. The semiclassical error is estimated by perturbing the Berry-Keating formula. The analysis necessitates an asymptotic analysis of very long periodic orbits. This is obtained within an approximation originally due to Baladi Eckmann and Ruelle. We find that the average error, for sufficiently large value of kR, will exceed the mean level spacing.

description: We present a deductive theory of space-time which is realistic, objective, and relational. It is realistic because it assumes the existence of physical things endowed with concrete properties. It is objective because it can be formulated without any reference to cognoscent subjects or sensorial fields. Finally, it is relational because it assumes that space-time is not a thing but a complex of relations among things. In this way, the original program of Leibniz is consummated, in the sense that space is ultimately an order of coexistents, and time is an order of succesives. In this context, we show that the metric and topological properties of Minkowskian space-time are reduced to relational properties of concrete things. We also sketch how our theory can be extended to encompass a Riemmanian space-time.

description: A deformation of the canonical algebra for kinematical observables of the quantum field theory in Minkowski space-time has been considered under the condition of Lorentz invariance. A relativistic invariant algebra obtained depends on additional fundamental constants M, L and H with the dimensions of mass, length and action, respectively. In some limiting cases the algebra goes over into the well-known Snyder or Yang algebras. In general case the algebra represents a class of Lie algebras, that consists of simple algebras and semidirect sums of simple algebras and integrable ones. Some algebras belonging to this class are noninvariant under T and C transformations. Possible applications of obtained algebras for descriptions of states of matter under extreme conditions are briefly discussed.

description: This study examines the current political climate's effect on perceptions revolving around the SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), also known as CalFresh, among immigrant groups located in San Diego County, California. Through a review of background information, primary source analysis (qualitative semi-structured interviews with officials, non-profit organization leaders and employees) and analysis of existing secondary research (nationwide and California-specific SNAP enrollment numbers), this study examines how the hostility and changing policies around welfare policy and SNAP impacts immigrant groups and their willingness to enroll in the program. It also examines the historical circumstances that affect perceptions towards the SNAP program today. This research provides planners with an understanding of the additional difficulties that immigrant groups face that can help aid and inform food policy and other related decisions with economic development, our built environment and social equity.

description: Regulators have long disagreed whether regulation would reduce hedge funds’ financial misreporting. On the one hand, critics have stated that hedge funds are unlikely to misreport because their investors are highly sophisticated financial players who can detect and deter financial misconduct. On the other hand, recent changes in the composition of hedge funds’ investors have led many to question this argument. In this paper, I test whether hedge fund regulation reduces misreporting by using a quasi-natural experiment in which a subset of hedge funds was regulated, deregulated, and then regulated again. Unique features of the setting permit me to study not only whether hedge fund regulation reduces financial misreporting—but, if so, why the regulation reduces misreporting. The results show that regulation reduces misreporting at hedge funds and that the imposition of disclosure requirements, even without other concurrent changes in regulation, can reduce hedge funds’ misreporting. The result seems surprising, because hedge funds’ investors are commonly thought to have access to far more information than is required by disclosure rules. Further inquiries suggest that disclosure requirements led funds to make changes in their internal governance, and that these changes in governance induced funds to report their financial performance more honestly and accurately.
The Supreme Court and the Body: A Historical Critique of Privacy

Subjects: History
Privacy, Right of

description: "The Supreme Court and the Body: A Historical Critique of Privacy" traces the social and legal conceptions of conceptions of privacy in American intimate life. The primary focus of the paper establishes 1) How the Supreme Court formulated the right to privacy in Griswold v. Connecticut in 1965, and 2) How social and legal trends reconceptualized privacy, culminating the Supreme Court decisions of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton in 1973. The first major analytical portion examines the beginnings of legal privacy formulation in the late nineteenth century. In the same chapter, I pose a theory on the motivations behind the origins of anti-abortion and anti-contraception legislation. I argue that the two most crucial factors in this particular sector of policy formation depended on Nativism and the newly-formed American Medical Association's desire to gain sole control over all areas of medical practice. The second chapter critically looks at the arguments and opinions in Griswold v. Connecticut, which overturned Connecticut's nineteenth century anti-contraception statute. It is here where I argue that Brandeis's and Stanton's original articulations of privacy most closely associate with Supreme Court law. The third portion examines how matters of reproduction disengaged with privacy due to the efforts of feminist activists, abortion-rights activists, policy makers concerned with overpopulation, and medical professionals. All of these groups used the courts to viciously attack the state abortion regulations after the Court announced its decision in Griswold. The final analytical portion examines the arguments and opinions in Roe v. Wade, which invalidated abortion regulations based on an established Ninth and Fourteenth Amendment right to privacy. The paper ultimately advances two primary arguments: first, the Roe opinion segregated reproductive freedom from a right to privacy. By relying primarily on medical standards and an off conflation of jurisprudential standards, Roe had the opposite effect Griswold: it took reproductive freedom out of realm of privacy insofar as the Constitutional is concerned. Second, that the Roe opinion was a unique product of its time. The Court majority in Roe might have been able to advance a stronger constitutional theory if they had not decided Roe in 1973. The era from 1965 to 1973 was a uniquely difficult moment for any kind of jurisprudence, let alone privacy jurisprudence.

description: The Fornax Deep Survey Dwarf galaxy Catalog (FDSDC) includes 564 dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster and the in-falling Fornax A subgroup. We use the FDSDC galaxies for statistical analysis of the structural and stellar population differences in the range of galactic environments within the Fornax cluster. We present the standard scaling relations for the dwarfs and analyze trends as a function of cluster-centric radius. We find a different behavior for the bright dwarfs (-18.5 mag < M$_r$ < -16 mag) as compared to the fainter ones (M$_r$ > -16 mag): While considering galaxies in the same magnitude-bins, we find that, while for fainter dwarfs the g'-r' color is redder for lower surface brightness objects (as expected from fading stellar populations), for brighter dwarfs the color is redder for the higher surface brightness and higher Sérsic n objects. The trend of the bright dwarfs might be explained by those galaxies being affected by harassment and by slower quenching of star formation in their inner parts. As the fraction of early-type dwarfs with respect to late-types increases toward the central parts of the cluster, the color-surface brightness trends are also manifested in the cluster-centric trends, confirming that it is indeed the environment that changes the galaxies. We also estimate the strengths of the ram-pressure stripping, tidal disruption, and harassment in the Fornax cluster, and find that our observations are consistent with the theoretically expected ranges of galaxy properties where each of those mechanisms dominate. We furthermore find that the luminosity function, color-magnitude relation, and axis-ratio distribution of the dwarfs in the center of the Fornax cluster are similar to those in the center of the Virgo cluster.

We choose velocity fields, solutions of the inviscid Burgers equation, whose probability distributions are specified by Kida's statistics. They are time-correlated, not time-reversal invariant and not Gaussian. We discuss in some details the effect of shocks on trajectories and transport equations. We derive the inviscid limit of these equations using a formalism of operators localized on shocks. We compute the probability distribution functions of the trajectories although they do not define Markov processes. As physically expected, these trajectories are statistically well-defined but collapse with probability one at infinite time. We point out that the advected scalars enjoy inverse energy cascades. We also make a few comments on the connection between our computations and persistence problems.

description: To better understand the possible breakdown of locality in quantum gravitational systems, we pursue the identity of precursors in the context of AdS/CFT. Holography implies a breakdown of standard bulk locality which we expect to occur only at extremely high energy. We consider precursors that encode bulk information causally disconnected from the boundary and whose measurement involves nonlocal bulk processes. We construct a toy model of holography which encapsulates the expected properties of precursors and compare it with previous such discussions. If these precursors can be identified in the gauge theory, they are almost certainly Wilson loops, perhaps with decorations, but the relevant information is encoded in the high-energy sector of the theory and should not be observable by low energy measurements. This would be in accord with the locality bound, which serves as a criterion for situations where breakdown of bulk locality is expected.

description: Inkjet printable graphene inks are very attractive for applications in flexible and foldable electronics, such as wearable electronics and the Internet of Things. However, the ink preparation is still very time consuming as high concentrations can be achieved only with prolonged sonication (>24 hours) or with expensive setups. Here we demonstrate a water-based inkjet printable ink made from electrochemically exfoliated graphene. A printable and stable (> 1 month) ink with concentration of ~2.25 mg mL-1 was formulated in less than 5 hrs, using two successive steps: first exfoliation and dispersion of large graphene flakes (> 5 um) followed by 1 hour tip-sonication to reduce the flake size below 1 um, as required for the material to be ejected by the nozzle. The formulated ink contains more than 75% single- and few-layers (i.e. less than 2 nm in thickness) graphene flakes with an average lateral size of 740 nm. Thermal annealing allows to achieve high C/O ratio (>10), which translates into one of the highest electrical conductivity (~3.91 x 104 S m-1) reported so far for solution-processed graphene, without the use of any harsh chemical processing.

Differential equations and duality in massless integrable field theories at zero temperature

description: Functional relations play a key role in the study of integrable models. We argue in this paper that for massless field theories at zero temperature, these relations can in fact be interpreted as monodromy relations. Combined with a recently discovered duality, this gives a way to bypass the Bethe ansatz, and compute directly physical quantities as solutions of a linear differential equation, or as integrals over a hyperelliptic curve. We illustrate these ideas in details in the case of the $c=1$ theory, and the associated boundary sine-Gordon model.

Nature is for Itself: Challenging the Core of Environmental Conservation

description: This thought-provoking article by Karan Suthar challenges the anthropocentric foundations of environmental conservation by advocating for the recognition of nature's intrinsic right to exist independently of human interests. Drawing on thinkers like Frank Fraser Darling, William Cronon, and Ramachandra Guha, the essay critiques prevailing conservation and sustainability paradigms as fundamentally human-centered, often reducing nature to a resource for utility or survival. Suthar calls for a deeper environmental consciousness rooted in reverence, not dominance—an ethic that acknowledges all species as co-inhabitants rather than subordinates. By questioning the authority humans assume over defining nature’s value, the article invites a reimagining of ecological ethics beyond utility and control.

description: We introduce a graphical presentation for the false nearest neighbors (FNN) method. In the original method only the percentage of false neighbors is computed without regard to the distribution of neighboring points in the time-delay coordinates. With this new presentation it is much easier to distinguish deterministic chaos from noise. The graphical approach also serves as a tool to determine better conditions for detecting low dimensional chaos, and to get a better understanding on the applicability of the FNN method.

description: Choptuik has demonstrated that naked singularities can arise in gravitational collapse from smooth, asymptotically flat initial data, and that such data have codimension one in spherical symmetry. Here we show, for perfect fluid matter with equation of state $p=ρ/3$, by perturbing around spherical symmetry, that such data have in fact codimension one in the full phase space, at least in a neighborhood of spherically symmetric data.

description: A strong electron current triggered by a femtosecond relativistically intense laser pulse in a foil coil-like target is shown to be able to generate a solenoidal-type extremely strong magnetic field. The magnetic field lifetime sufficiently exceeds the laser pulse duration and is defined mainly by the target properties. The process of the magnetic field generation was studied with 3D PIC simulations. It is demonstrated that the pulse and the target parameters allow controlling the field strength and duration. The scheme studied is of great importance for laser-based magnetization technologies.

description: We use a set of simple angular moments to solve the Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation for a boost invariant longitudinally expanding gluonic plasma. The transition from the free streaming regime at early time to the hydrodynamic regime at late time is well captured by the first two-moments, corresponding to the monopole and quadrupole components of the momentum distribution, or equivalently to the energy density and the difference between the longitudinal and the transverse pressures. We relate this property to the existence of fixed points in the infinite hierarchy of equations satisfied by the moments. These fixed points are already present in the two-moment truncations and are only moderately affected by the coupling to higher moments. Collisions contribute to a damping of all the non trivial moments. At late time, when the hydrodynamic regime is entered, only the monopole and quadrupole moments are significant and remain strongly coupled, the decay of the quadrupole moment being delayed by the expansion, causing in turn a delay in the full isotropization of the system. The two-moment truncation contains second order viscous hydrodynamics, in its various variants, and third order hydrodynamics, together with explicit values of the relevant transport coefficients, can be easily obtained from the three-moment truncation.

description: We report the results of Monte Carlo simulation of electron dynamics in stationary and space- and time-dependent electric fields in compensated GaN samples. We have determined the frequency and wavevector dependencies of the dynamic conductivity, $σ_{ω,q}$. We have found that the spatially dependent dynamic conductivity of the drifting electrons can be negative under stationary electric fields of moderate amplitudes, $2..5$ kV/cm. This effect is realized in a set of frequency windows. The low-frequency window with negative dynamic conductivity is due to the Cherenkov mechanism. For this case the time-dependent field induces a {\it traveling wave} of the electron concentration in real space and a {\it standing wave} in the energy/momentum space. The higher frequency windows of negative dynamic conductivity are associated with the optical phonon transient time resonances. For this case the time-dependent field is accompanied by oscillations of the electron distribution in the form of the {\it traveling} waves in both the real space and the energy/momentum space. We discuss the optimal conditions for the observation of these effects. We suggest that the studied negative dynamic conductivity can be used to amplify electromagnetic waves at the expense of energy of the stationary field and current.

description: Equations of motion for a classical 3d discrete model, whose auxialiary system is a linear system, are investigated. The Lagrangian form of the equations of motion is derived. The Lagrangian variables are a triplet of "tau functions". The equations of motion for the Triplet of Tau functions are Three Trilinear equations. Simple solitons for the trilinear equations are given. Both the dispersion relation and the phase shift reflect the triplet structure of equations.
