description: We present an experimental study of spin-torque driven vortex self-oscillations in magnetic nanocontacts. We find that above a certain threshold in applied currents, the vortex gyration around the nanocontact is modulated by relaxation oscillations, which involve periodic reversals of the vortex core. This modulation leads to the appearance of commensurate but also more interestingly here, incommensurate states, which are characterized by devil's staircases in the modulation frequency. We use frequency- and time-domain measurements together with advanced time-series analyses to provide experimental evidence of chaos in incommensurate states of vortex oscillations, in agreement with theoretical predictions.

description: Spin preparation and spin detection are fundamental problems in spintronics and in several solid state proposals for quantum information processing. Here we propose the mesoscopic equivalent of an optical polarizing beam splitter (PBS). This interferometric device uses non-dispersive phases (Aharonov-Bohm and Rashba) in order to separate spin up and spin down carriers into distinct outputs and thus it is analogous to a Stern-Gerlach apparatus. It can be used both as a spin preparation device and as a spin measuring device by converting spin into charge (orbital) degrees of freedom. An important feature of the proposed spin polarizer is that no ferromagnetic contacts are used.

description: Dissipation and enstropy statistics are calculated for an ensemble of modified Burgers vortices in equilibrium under uniform straining. Different best-fit, finite-range scaling exponents are found for locally-averaged dissipation and enstrophy, in agreement with existing numerical simulations and experiments. However, the ratios of dissipation and enstropy moments supported by axisymmetric vortices of any profile are finite. Therefore the asymptotic scaling exponents for dissipation and enstrophy induced by such vortices are equal in the limit of infinite Reynolds number.

description: We study the effective energy-momentum tensor (EMT) for cosmological perturbations and formulate the gravitational back-reaction problem in a gauge invariant manner. We analyze the explicit expressions for the EMT in the cases of scalar metric fluctuations and of gravitational waves and derive the resulting equations of state. The formalism is applied to investigate the back-reaction effects in chaotic inflation. We find that for long wavelength scalar and tensor perturbations, the effective energy density is negative and thus counteracts any pre-existing cosmological constant. For scalar perturbations during an epoch of inflation, the equation of state is de Sitter-like.

description: Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p>0. When p>2, Fontaine and Laffaille have classified p-divisibles groups and finite flat p-groups over the Witt vectors W(k) in terms of filtered modules. Still assuming p>2, we extend these classifications over an arbitrary complete discrete valuation ring A with unequal characteristic (0,p) and residue field k by using "generalized" filtered modules. In particular, there is no restriction on the ramification index. In the case k is included in \bar{F}_p (and p>2), we then use this new classification to prove that any crystalline representation of the Galois group of Frac(A) with Hodge-Tate weights in {0,1} contains as a lattice the Tate module of a p-divisible group over A.

description: Mit großem Einsatz hat Schleiermacher an den öffentlichen Debatten in Staat und Gesellschaft teilgenommen und dabei auf vielfältige Weise das Ziel einer Modernisierung der politischen und sozialen Verhältnisse verfolgt. Nach seinem Selbstverständnis bestand eine enge Verbindung zwischen der politischen Wirksamkeit und den Aufgaben des akademischen Lehrers und protestantischen Geistlichen. In den seit mehr als drei Jahrzehnten wieder sehr intensiv betriebenen Forschungen zur Theologie und Philosophie Schleiermachers sind allerdings solche Bezüge weitgehend ausgeblendet worden. Seine politischen Überzeugungen sind bisher, ebenso wie die meisten der zahlreichen politisch relevanten Stellungnahmen, kaum bekannt und weder in ihrer werkgeschichtlichen Bedeutung noch in ihrer Rolle innerhalb der modernen Staatstheorie näher erörtert worden.
Noch schwerer wiegt, daß die Intentionen, die Schleiermacher überhaupt zu seinem politischen Einsatz motiviert haben und die durchaus nicht allein auf die Wiedergewinnung staatlicher Eigenständigkeit gerichtet waren, vielfach unklar blieben. Die zentralen politischen Forderungen – die Anerkennung politischer Partizipationsrechte der Landesbewohner, die Etablierung einer kritischen öffentlichen Diskurskultur, die Bildung repräsentativer Einrichtungen und die Ablösung feudaler Entscheidungsstrukturen, insgesamt also die Entwicklung des Staatswesens in Richtung auf einen demokratischen Rechts- und Verfassungsstaat – sind kaum rezipiert worden.
The diachronic development of the Chinese passive
Creators: name: Li, Yin
Publisher: name: Journal of Historical Syntax
Year: 2019

description: This article discusses the diachronic development of the Chinese long passive. The diachronic analysis is built on structural analysis of the long passive and the WEI ... SUO passive. I show that both constructions involve a highly restricted embedded clause (a vP) and that both are derived via Aʹ-movement. Based on their structural parallelism, I argue that the WEI ... SUO passive, which first appeared in Late Archaic Chinese (fifth century BCE ~ third century BCE), is the direct ancestor of the long passive. The long passive inherits its Aʹ properties and biclausal structure from the WEI ... SUO passive. I also show that the diachronic development from the WEI ... SUO passive to the long passive took place in two steps: (i) the loss of SUO following a morphophonological change in Early Middle Chinese (second century BCE ~ second century CE, and (ii) the replacement of WEI by BEI in Middle Chinese (third century CE ~ sixth century CE).

description: A diffraction theory in a system consisting of left-handed and right-handed materials is proposed. The theory is based upon the Huygens's principle and the Kirchhoff's integral and it is valid if the wavelength is smaller than any relevant length of the system. The theory is applied to the calculation of the smearing of the foci of the Veselago lens due to the finite wavelength. We show that the Veselago lens is a unique optical instrument for the 3D imaging, but it is not a ``superlens'' as it has been claimed recently.

description: We present the experimental studies of highly strained soft bidisperse granular systems made of hyperelastic and plastic particles. We explore the behavior of granular matter deep in the jammed state from local field measurement from the grain scale to the global scale. By mean of digital image correlation and accurate image recording we measure for each compression step the evolution of the particle geometries and their right Cauchy-Green strain tensor fields. We analyze the evolution of the usual macroscopic observables (stress, packing fraction, coordination, fraction of non-rattlers, \textit{etc}.) along the compression process through the jamming point and far beyond. We also analyze the evolution of the local strain statistics and evidence a crossover in the material behavior deep in the jammed state. We show that this crossover depends on the particle material. We argue that the strain field is a reliable observable to describe the evolution of a granular system through the jamming transition and deep in the dense packing state whatever is the material behavior.

description: Abstract. Many selective pressures modulate microhabitat choice of ectotherms, such as temperature, humidity and habitat heterogeneity, and these vary in space and time. Here we analysed: 1) microhabitat selection comparing characteristics of stones (and their surroundings) under which geckos (Tarentola delalandii, mainly nocturnal) were found during the day with that of stones selected randomly; 2) relationship of a measure of body size to microhabitat characteristics (stone and herb covers, etc., and temperature/humidity) and cloacal temperature of males, females and juveniles from two contrasting habitats of Tenerife (northern and southern localities) and in two periods of the year (Spring-Summer and Autumn-Winter). In comparison with randomly selected stones, geckos significantly selected stones with lower temperature in the Spring-Summer and microhabitats with high stone cover. Gecko size was significantly larger in the Northern than in the Southern locality, in spring – summer than in autumn-winter and in males than in females. In both populations and time periods, the largest body sizes were significantly associated with higher environmental and shelter temperatures and with low values of humidity and stone cover. Cloacal and shelter temperatures were positively and significantly related; at higher values of the latter, juveniles attained significantly higher temperatures than adult males but lower than that of females. Larger body size was associated with high shrub and leaf litter covers and high values of shelter dimensions. Therefore, we suggest that in relation to their body sizes, geckos seem to select their shelters considering specific microhabitat characteristics surrounding them that may provide thermoregulatory and/or antipredator profits.
Projective varieties invariant by one-dimensional foliations

Subjects: subject: Complex Variables (math.CV)

description: This work concerns the problem of relating characteristic numbers of one-dimensional holomorphic foliations of P^n to those of algebraic varieties invariant by them. More precisely: if M is a connected complex manifold, a one-dimensional holomorphic foliation F of M is a morphism Φ:L -> TM where L is a holomorphic line bundle on M. The singular set of F is the analytic subvariety sing(F) = {p : Φ(p)=0} and the leaves of F are the leaves of the nonsingular foliation induced by F on M-sing(F). If M is P^n then, since line bundles over P^n are classified by the Chern class c_1(L) in H^2(P^n,Z) = Z, one-dimensional holomorphic foliations F of P^n are given by morphisms Phi:O(1-d) -> TP^n with d >= 0, d in Z, which we call the degree of F. We will use the notation F^d for such a foliation. Suppose now i:V -> P^n is an irreducible algebraic variety invariant by F^d in such a way that the pull-back i^*(F^d) of F^d to V has a finite set of points as the singular set. The problem we address is the relation between d and the degree of V.

Renewing Renewal: Community Involvement in Redevelopment After the Expiration of Urban Renewal Plans

Year: 2020
Subjects: Urban renewal--Citizen participation

description: Communities impacted by urban renewal in the mid-twentieth century were largely unable to stop the changes brought to their neighborhoods. The plans that operationalized urban renewal remained in place for over 40 years, with significant legislative, legal, and financial effort required to make any alterations. In New York City, many of the urban renewal areas and their governing plans have since expired, ushering in market-driven development and neighborhood changes. This thesis uses a mixed-methods approach to analyze the subsequent built environment changes and to explore community involvement through case studies of redevelopment in the former Seward Park Extension Urban Renewal Area (SPEURA) and Two Bridges Urban Renewal Area (TBURA). While many lots remain unchanged since the urban renewal era, those that have changed reflect local development preferences or the results of major rezonings. The case studies reveal the wide variety of methods of community involvement in site redevelopment, with implications for future participation in redevelopment in the city.

description: The effect of Eulerian intermittency on the Lagrangian statistics of relative dispersion in fully developed turbulence is investigated. A scaling range spanning many decades is achieved by generating a multi-affine synthetic velocity field with prescribed intermittency features. The scaling laws for the Lagrangian statistics are found to depend on Eulerian intermittency in agreement with a multifractal description. As a consequence of the Kolmogorov's law, the Richardson's law for the variance of pair separation is not affected by intermittency corrections.

Propagation of waves in metallic photonic crystals at low frequencies and some theoretical aspects of left-handed materials

description: An analytical theory of low frequency electromagnetic waves in metallic photonic crystals with a small volume fraction of a metal is presented. The evidence of the existence of such waves has been found recently via experiments and computations. We have obtained an exact dispersion equation for omega (k) and studied the cutoff frequency omega_0 = omega(0) as a function of parameters of the photonic crystal. An analytical expression for the permittivity epsilon is calculated. It is shown, that if the crystal is embedded into a medium with negative mu, it has no propagating modes at any frequency. Thus, such a compound system is not a left-handed material (LHM). The recent experimental results on the LHM are discussed.

description: In this article, we will consider second order uniformly elliptic operators of divergence form defined on R^n with measurable coefficients. Mainly, we will give estimates on the dimension of space of solutions that grow at most polynomially of degree d. More precisely, in terms of a rectangular coordinate system {x_1,...,x_n}, a second order uniformly elliptic operator of divergence form, L, acting on a function f in H^1_loc(R^n) is given by Lf = sum_{ij} d/dx_i (a^{ij}(x) df/dx_j) where (a^{ij}(x)) is an n x n symmetric matrix satisfying the ellipticity bounds λI <= (a^{ij}) <= Lambda I for some constants 0 < lambda <= Lambda < \infty. Other than the ellipticity bounds, we only assume that the coefficients (a_{ij}) are merely measurable functions.

description: This white paper reports on the findings of the MaDiH (مديح): Mapping Digital Cultural Heritage in Jordan project. It is complemented by a technical white paper. MaDiH (مديح) is a collaborative project between King’s Digital Lab (KDL) at King’s College London, the Hashemite University (HU), the Council for British Research in the Levant (CBRL), the Department of Antiquities of Jordan (DoA), the Jordan Open Source Association (JOSA), and the Endangered Archaeology in the Middle East and North Africa (EAMENA) project. The project ran for two years, from February 2019 - April 2021.The goal of the project was to contribute to the long-term sustainable development of Jordan’s digital cultural heritage by identifying key systems, datasets, standards, and policies, and aligning them to government digital infrastructure capabilities and strategies. This policy white paper focuses on alignment to national and international policies and standards and makes recommendations for future action. The technical white paper provides more detailed technical descriptions of standards, datasets, data repositories, and other assets, and defines requirements for future activity. Each section of the white papers lists associated challenges and opportunities, which are summarised in appendices. Taken together, the intention is for the white papers to define the current state of digital cultural heritage (DCH) in Jordan, inform and align to Jordanian government policy, and inform planning and technical design processes that can enable the future development of Jordanian DCH.MaDiH’s (مديح) policy goals aimed to ensure any technical work or analysis undertaken in the project were aligned to government policies and international best practices in cultural heritage management, digital cultural heritage, and research software engineering. Practical prototyping was used to ensure analysis and lessons learned are cost-effective and aligned to real-world scenarios, and a series of workshops with stakeholders from the cultural heritage, research, government, and technology sectors built a sense of community, facilitated knowledge exchange, and ensured the project fulfilled the needs of the local community. A hackathon, led by the Jordan Open Source Association, ensured analysis and lessons learned were aligned to educational and commercial opportunities.

description: Magnetite iron ore was mined from the abandoned Brynnor Mine in the 1960s. It was crushed and magnetically separated to produce sand-sized tailings that were deposited in Toquaht Bay to produce sandy upland, intertidal beach and subtidal areas. In the Maa-Nulth Final Agreement (Treaty), the upland area was transferred to Toquaht Nation and the Province of British Columbia committed to remediating the area. Environmental investigations found groundwater contaminated with arsenic and cobalt discharges to the intertidal area. Porewater investigations found unacceptable toxicity to intertidal aquatic life. Subtidal tailings do not present unacceptable ecological risks. Three preferred remedial alternatives were evaluated: • Partial Solidification, involving ex-situ solidification of some tailings with cement to form a cap. • Landfill Disposal, involving removal of tailings to below sea level and backfilling. • Commercial Option, involving placement of asphalt/geomembrane cover. Three numerical groundwater models were used to evaluate remedial options considering different aspects of the complex tidal groundwater-seawater flow system. A 3D MODFLOW model estimated the average annual reduction of contaminated groundwater discharge through tailings to the lower intertidal area and used to assess effectiveness of remedial options. A 2D SEAWAT model evaluated the influence of remedial alternatives on density-driven groundwater flow. A 2D HYDRUS model simulated transient cycling/exchange of seawater and groundwater in response to hourly tidal conditions in the intertidal zone. It also calculated contaminant concentrations in the remedial cap based on conservative contaminant transport processes and hydrodynamic mixing. Each model addressed different modelling objectives and were considered in conjunction with the results of the other two models and with an understanding of the models’ capabilities and limitations.

description: Using recent results in the theory of $C_0$-semigroups due to Batty, Chill and Tomilov (J. Eur. Math. Soc. 18(4):853-929, 2016) we study energy decay in a one-dimensional coupled wave-heat system with finite wave part and infinite heat part. Our main result provides a sharp estimate for the rate of energy decay of a certain class of classical solutions. The present paper can be thought of as a natural sequel to a recent work by Batty, Paunonen and Seifert (J. Evol. Equ. 16:649-664, 2016), which studied a similar wave-heat system with finite wave and heat parts using a celebrated result due to Borichev and Tomilov.

Bogomolny's semiclassical transfer operator for rotationally invariant integrable systems

description: The transfer operator due to Bogomolny provides a convenient method for obtaining a semiclassical approximation to the energy eigenvalues of a quantum system, no matter what the nature of the analogous classical system. In this paper, the method is applied to integrable systems which are rotationally invariant, in two and three dimensions. In two dimensions, the transfer operator is expanded in a Fourier series in the angle variable, while in three dimensions it is expanded in spherical harmonics. In both cases, when the Fourier coefficients are evaluated using the stationary phase approximation, we arrive at the Einstein-Brillouin-Keller (EBK) quantization conditions. The associated Maslov indices are shown to agree with the results calculated by well-known simple rules. The theory is applied to several rotationally invariant systems, including the hydrogen atom and the isotropic harmonic oscillator in two and three dimensions, the circle billiard, a billiard inside a spherical cavity, and a harmonic potential with a singular magnetic flux line.

Renter Protections against Eviction: Identifying and Analyzing Laws, Policies, and Procedures in Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, and New York City

description: For the roughly one third of Americans who rent their homes, eviction is an ever-present threat. Noting the negative effects of eviction including poor health, educational, employment, and social outcomes, in response, cities have enacted renter protections against the eviction of urban tenants. Such protections take the form of landlord-tenant laws, rent regulations (price controls), access to legal counsel, and specific legal procedures required to obtain an eviction judgment. Over the past year, in response to impacts of the Covid-19 Pandemic, local, state, and even the Federal government have taken unprecedented steps to further protect renters by issuing expansive, but temporary, eviction moratoriums. While existing literature examines causes and impacts of evictions, there have been few attempts to aggregate, compare and understand the different legal and policy protections against eviction in U.S. cities. This research focuses on doing so for the four largest renter cities in the United States: Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, and New York City. The identification of such protections by this thesis, and their compilation into a matrix, can serve as a roadmap for planners from any city to gather relevant eviction protections in their respective locales, and better advocate for housing policy changes and stronger protections for tenants.
Renting Elected Office: Why Businesspeople Become Politicians in Russia

description: Why do some businesspeople run for political office, while others do not? Sending directors into elected office is one of the most powerful but also resource-intensive ways firms can influence policymaking. Although legislative bodies are populated with businesspeople in countries worldwide, we know little about which firms decide to invest in this unique type of nonmarket strategy. In response, I argue that businesspeople run for elected office when (1) they cannot trust that the politicians they lobby will represent their interests and (2) their firms have the resources available to contest elections. My theory predicts the probability of politician shirking (reneging on their promises) depends on whether rival firms have representatives in parliament and political parties are capable of enforcing informal quid pro quo agreements. Evidence to test my arguments comes from an original dataset of 8,829 firms connected to candidates to regional legislatures in Russia from 2004-2011. I find that both greater oligopolistic competition and weaker political parties incentivize businessperson candidacy, while the ability to cover campaign costs depends on the level of voter income and firm size.
      Do firms with directors holding elected political office then benefit from political connections? Using the same dataset but restricting the analysis to elections in single-member districts, I next employ a regression discontinuity design to identify the causal effect of gaining political ties, comparing outcomes of firms that are directed by candidates who either won or lost close elections to regional legislatures. I first find that a connection to a winning politician can increase revenue by roughly 60% and profit margins by 15% over their time in office. I then test between different mechanisms potentially explaining the results, finding that connected firms improve their performance by gaining access to bureaucrats and reducing information costs, and not by signaling legitimacy to financiers. Finally, winning a parliamentary seat is more valuable for firms where democratization is greater, but less valuable when firms face acute sector-level competition. This finding suggests that the intensity of economic rivalry, rather than the quality of political institutions, best explains the decision to send a director into public office.

Evaluating differences in tree and shrub performance, soil moisture regime and predicted site series between 50-cm and 100-cm overburden cover depths at Gibraltar Mine

description: Reclamation cover depth influences the plant-available water a given surface material is able to store, which ultimately determines the soil moisture regime (SMR) of a site and its ability to support specific vegetation communities and ecosystems. In 2009, Gibraltar Mine established an overburden-depth trial on the flat top of a waste-rock dump to evaluate tree and shrub performance in overburden-cover depths of 50 cm and 100 cm. Seedlings were planted in 2009 and 2010, and mortality surveys were conducted in 2011 and 2012 to determine initial establishment success of planted species. In 2020, we measured and compared substrate properties, survival and success of planted species, and ecosystem characteristics between the two treatments. We also conducted destructive root-excavation sampling to assess how rooting activity was affected by overburden-cover depths for the two dominant planted species: aspen and black cottonwood. Results indicated the following: • The 100-cm treatment is capable of storing more soil water than the 50-cm treatment, resulting in a mesic SMR compared to the drier submesic SMR in the 50-cm treatment. • Trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides) were significantly taller in the 100-cm than in the 50-cm treatment while no differences were observed in black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) or birch (Betula papyrifera), suggesting that aspen can respond more readily to greater water availability. • Poplar-willow-borer attack was more frequent and more severe in aspen and willow (Salix spp.) growing in the 50-cm treatment, which may indicate an increased susceptibility to insect and pathogen attack in shallower cover depths for some species. These results show that using a 100-cm cover depth in reclamation is beneficial for soil water storage, and plant health and growth for some species, relative to using a 50-cm cover depth, and that different depths can be used to create differing conditions for target reclamation ecosystems.
