description: Michele Sanvico, currently the world leading expert in the legendary tradition of Mount Sibyl and the Lake of Pilate in Italy, examines an ancient, most renowned Malay legend, concerning a magical mountain, Gunung Ledang, which raises its peak near Malacca, and a legendary, enchanted princess, Queen Putry, living in a cave on the mountain-top. Two Portuguese authors, Manuel Godinho de Erédia in the seventeenth century and Tomé Pires in the sixteenth, compared Queen Putry to some Sibyl, and the latter to a 'Sibyl of Rome'. In this paper we highlight the many existing similarities between the two legendary tales and propose that the 'Sibyl of Rome' is possibly to be recognized as the Apennine Sibyl out of the multiple historical and literary links that connect this medieval Sibyl to Rome, the Papal States and the popes. Furthermore, as an unexpected outcome of the present research work, an additional, most interesting conclusion can be drawn: owing to the presence, within the tale of Queen Putry, of supernatural winds (as attested in the 'Sejarah Melayu', which bears an ancient description of the folktale), the presence of geomythical-specific themes is to be conjectured with relation of the Gunung Ledang's tale, just as already assumed in our previous paper “The chthonian legend” as to the Apennine Sibyl's legend, in which similar winds are present, pointing to earthquakes as the possible original trigger for myth generation. In this view, to be further investigated and developed, Queen Putry, too, might find her own origin in the powerful earthquakes that hit East Indies across the centuries, of which the 2004 earthquake and tsunami are the most recent, most terrific instance.

Neomacrocoris dubius Poisson 1948: Rev. Zool. Bot. Afr. 41: 217-219.
Discussion. This is a small species; the male given as 7.2 and female 8 mm (Poisson 1948). We remeasured the specimens at 7.50 (male) and 8.25 and 8.35 (females). The locality for the type series of one male and two females was given as Grote de Sejea Santa in French West Africa. Poisson (1948) did not designate a type, thus these three specimens are syntypes. We here designate the male as a lectotype and the two females are paralectotypes. Poisson indicated that the specimens would remain in his collection and provided illustrations of the 7th and 8th abdominal terga but did not describe or illustrate the aedeagus. The male lectotype (Fig. 7), two female specimens with the same label data, and slide-mounted genitalia and abdominal terga of the lectotype are housed in the Drake Collection at the USNM.
Diagnosis. Although broken, the phallosoma appears to have a ventrodextral flange similar to that of N. parviceps. The flange is doubled, with a second parallel flange projecting ventrad and not visible in dorsal view. The pronotum differs from that of most other species of Neomacrocoris because rather than being continuously convex transversely, it has a central area that is somewhat flattened and a distinct shallow depression in the anterior third near the lateral margin. The latter characteristic is most easily seen in a dorsolateral view. The pseudostrigil is elongate and directed posteriorly (Fig. 8). The female subgenital plate is gently sinuate to the distal spatulate process (Fig. 9).

description: For an infinite-horizon control problem, the optimal control can be represented by the stable manifold of the characteristic Hamiltonian system of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation in a semiglobal domain. In this paper, we first theoretically prove that if an approximation is sufficiently close to the exact stable manifold of the HJB equation in a certain sense, then the control derived from this approximation stabilizes the system and is nearly optimal. Then, based on the theoretical result, we propose a deep learning algorithm to approximate the stable manifold and compute optimal feedback control numerically. The algorithm relies on adaptive data generation through finding trajectories randomly within the stable manifold. Such kind of algorithm is grid-free basically, making it potentially applicable to a wide range of high-dimensional nonlinear systems. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method through two examples: stabilizing the Reaction Wheel Pendulums and controlling the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation.

description: Using the fact that some depth functions characterize certain family of distribution functions, and under some mild conditions, distribution of the depth is continuous, we have constructed several new multivariate goodness of fit tests based on existing univariate GoF tests. Since exact computation of depth is difficult, depth is computed with respect to a large random sample drawn from the null distribution. It has been shown that test statistic based on estimated depth is close to that based on true depth for a large random sample from the null distribution. Some two sample tests for scale difference, based on data depth are also discussed. These tests are distribution-free under the null hypothesis. Finite sample properties of the tests are studied through several numerical examples. A real data example is discussed to illustrate usefulness of the proposed tests.

description: The paper investigates quadratic hedging in a semimartingale market that does not necessarily contain a risk-free asset. An equivalence result for hedging with and without numeraire change is established (Proposition 3.16). This permits direct computation of the optimal strategy without choosing a reference asset and/or performing a numeraire change (Theorem 4.1). New explicit expressions for optimal strategies are obtained, featuring the use of oblique projections that provide unified treatment of the case with and without a risk-free asset (Theorem 4.3). The analysis yields a streamlined computation of the efficient frontier for the pure investment problem in terms of three easily interpreted processes (Equation~1.1). The main result advances our understanding of the efficient frontier formation in the most general case where a risk-free asset may not be present. Several illustrations of the numeraire-invariant approach are given.

description: Decades of neoliberal capitalism have had a corrosive effect on public education, with implications for both the fiscal realities of education systems and the ideological values guiding curriculum and pedagogy. While the culture of neoliberalism has often been studied, it is equally important to expand analyses of the shifting material conditions of how capital moves through education systems, reshapes power, and exacerbates inequality. It is also, I argue, vitally important to document—to be mindful—of how the affordances of the present, once eroded, diminish the imaginings of what is possible in the future.  To that end, in this special issue, we highlight the twin realities of neoliberalism. We also make the argument for public education, imperfect though its current iterations may be, as a valuable inheritance of public good.

description: Neoliberal capitalism has undoubtedly impacted every sphere of public education in the United States. With an increased push towards identity-neutral modalities of instruction, students who identify as transgender, non-binary, or other expansive gender identities (trans) are forced to reckon with implicit and explicit power dynamics in classrooms that prioritize white, cisheteropatriarchal modes of knowledge production in nuanced ways. This qualitative study explores the ways neoliberal capitalism impacts the curricular experiences of trans students by centering the power dynamics they encounter through interactions with their professors and their peers. Findings underscore the pernicious nature of the neoliberalization of higher education in advancing trans exclusion from collegiate classrooms as a hindrance towards equity in public postsecondary education. Implications for transforming curricular instruction and policy to subvert the tensions of neoliberalism are also provided.

description: Synthesizing human motion with a global structure, such as a choreography, is a challenging task. Existing methods tend to concentrate on local smooth pose transitions and neglect the global context or the theme of the motion. In this work, we present a music-driven motion synthesis framework that generates long-term sequences of human motions which are synchronized with the input beats, and jointly form a global structure that respects a specific dance genre. In addition, our framework enables generation of diverse motions that are controlled by the content of the music, and not only by the beat. Our music-driven dance synthesis framework is a hierarchical system that consists of three levels: pose, motif, and choreography. The pose level consists of an LSTM component that generates temporally coherent sequences of poses. The motif level guides sets of consecutive poses to form a movement that belongs to a specific distribution using a novel motion perceptual-loss. And the choreography level selects the order of the performed movements and drives the system to follow the global structure of a dance genre. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of our music-driven framework to generate natural and consistent movements on various dance types, having control over the content of the synthesized motions, and respecting the overall structure of the dance.

Neomacrocoris hungerfordi Poisson 1948: Rev. Zool. Bot. Afr. 41: 216-217.
Discussion. This is the largest known species of Neomacrocoris. It was reported as 15 mm and is known from only Belgian Congo (Poisson 1948). There has been nothing in the literature about this species since the original description except for its listing in the La Rivers catalog of Naucoridae (La Rivers 1971). Poisson deposited two female specimens with identical label data (Fig. 17) in the Museum du Congo, now the Royal Museum of Central Africa in Tervuren, Belgium. Although both of these specimens were labeled “ TYPE ”, they are actually syntypes because a type specimen was not designated in the original description. To create taxonomic stability, we designated one specimen as a lectotype and labeled the other a paralectotype. A photograph of the dorsal surface (Fig. 16) and line drawing of the posterior abdominal sterna, including the subgenital plate (Fig. 18), of the lectotype are provided here. The male of this species is unknown.
Diagnosis. As the largest known species in the genus, size can be used with some degree of certainty. The female subgenital plate has mid-lateral projections, which are less produced than those of N. vuga.

description: What might an anti-capitalist education look like? To address this question, we examine the curricular visions of 56 elementary school teachers in New York City, who were asked to design one lesson on the issue of social class and economic inequality. Grounded in neoliberal racial capitalism and critical geography, our analysis finds that teachers who emphasize specific places -- whether schools, city environments, the national context, or global landscapes – are better able to orient their teaching toward explicitly critical and systemic analyses of economic inequality and its constitutive links to race, gender, and other socio-political hierarchies. Their lessons demonstrate how teaching can disrupt the neoliberal over-reliance on the individual consumer typically found in financial literacy schemes. A presentation of their lessons, seldom found in the existing literature, is followed by a discussion of what a multi-scalar approach to economic inequality can offer to the field of research, teacher education, and teaching.

Allure of Professionalism
Creators: name: Kaszuba, Adam
Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2025

description: Multiple discourses circulate in society which construct a vision of what professionalism looks like for teachers. When these discourses are put into practice in initial teacher education programs, teacher candidates feel compelled to integrate them without critically examining their underlying assumptions. Based on a Foucauldian framework, this study explores how teacher candidates in an Ontario Faculty of Education interacted with the language of dominant discourses as they constructed a collective identity and practice while participating in voluntary, emergent learning communities. Three discourses of professionalism emerged in the practices of the candidates: the discourse of passion, of mental health and well-being, and of safety. Through notions such as best practices and ‘truth acts’, I discuss how the discourses shape the candidates’ subjectivity, and in doing so, limit possibilities for resistance.

description: In developing countries, poor quality construction has led to spontaneous building collapse and, during earthquakes, to major disasters. While reliable building codes are widely used in design, builders in developing countries often fail to meet acceptable standards. Structural defects are frequently identified too late, often after catastrophic collapse. In Kenya, more than eighty people have been killed, an over 290 injured, by collapsed buildings, since 2006. However, Kenya is not an exception. Throughout the world, in particular in countries with developing economies and growing populations, thousands of dangerously weak buildings will be built, and millions of people will be exposed to unnecessarily higher risks for generations. This research aims at contributing towards finding solutions to this problem by: 1) demonstrating that, in Kenya, many buildings are approved for occupation based on false material strength data produced by ineffective quality-control methods; 2) engaging the help of experts in Kenyan construction to list and ranked probable causes and plausible solutions to the problem of unsafe construction practices in Kenya; 3) presenting a method and a simulation model to estimate the damages in Nairobi (or other cities in Africa) in case of and earthquake, which can be used by policy makers when evaluating alternative policy interventions; and 4) proposing a strategy that combines the enforcement of quality reporting for construction, the open publication of the reports, the diffusion of non-destructive testing in construction, a risk communication program, and internet forums to help educate and provide guidance to the public in good construction practices.

description: Oxyoppioides Subias & Minguez 1985
Typ: Damaeosoma decipiens Paoli, 1908
Sensillus, Rostrum und Körperform (in Lateralansicht!) sind sehr charakteristisch und unterscheiden sich von allen anderen europäischen Oppiiden. Woas (1986) verwies die Art in die Gattung Oppiella, was wir nicht akzeptieren. Die Art-Merkmale sind so besonders, dass wir selbst die Position in den Oppiinae für vorläufig halten; eine phylogenetische Revision ist erforderlich. Die Zuordnung einer anderen Art, Oppia paradecipiens Kulijew, 1967, zu Oxyoppioides basiert hauptsächlich auf der Ähnlichkeit der Sensillen. Unsere Untersuchungen an Material aus dem Osten der Slowakei widerlegen das Konzept: O. paradecipiens ist eine typische Oppiella-Art.

University Bureaucracies as the Death of Play

Year: 2025

description: The bureaucratic precepts engendered by modern universities produce a slew of negative effects inimical to educational justice. Drawing on historiographical evidence from the 1968 Strax Affair, a little-known protest held at the University of New Brunswick, we identify the arts of discombobulation as a novel approach to challenge the intellectual constraints imposed by university bureaucracies. By theorizing the arts of discombobulation, we aim to counteract bureaucracy’s most alienating affective residues, equipping scholars with an administrative arsenal capable of transforming the corporate academy into a playful, joyful environment. Inspired by cultural historian Johan Huizinga’s theory of the “play-function,” we introduce five interrelated tactics—burlesque versions of both formal and informal administrative practices—that amplify the contradictions inherent to the corporate academy’s contemporary bureaucratic structure: personalization, befuddlement, signal jamming, mapping, and abeyance. Even during moments of Kafkaesque bureaucratic defeat, discombobulation can generate a sense of heightened play necessary to fuel democratic resistance.

description: We construct a CAT(0) hierarchically hyperbolic group (HHG) acting geometrically on the product of a hyperbolic plane and a locally-finite tree which is not biautomatic. This gives the first example of an HHG which is not biautomatic, the first example of a non-biautomatic CAT(0) group of flat-rank 2, and the first example of an HHG which is injective but not Helly. Our proofs heavily utilise the space of geodesic currents for a hyperbolic surface.

Contesting Concepts, Imagining New Possibilities
Creators: name: Nelson, Peter M
Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2025

description: This essay places David Graeber’s consistent focus on imagination and possibilities into conversation with social studies education. In a sociopolitical climate characterized by neoliberalism, militarized borders, and political censorship of social studies teaching and learning in P-12 schools, it is crucial that social studies teachers and teacher educators in the United States, Canada, and elsewhere continue to engage in pedagogies that are critical and responsive, providing students with representations of the past and present that, rather than reproducing the status quo, playfully imagine alternative futures that are more equitable, just, and free. Building from Graeber’s work in direct civic action, this essay offers ideas for how standardized social studies concepts can be reconfigured in affecting, life-giving ways.

description: In this paper, we show the global regularity and the optimal decay of weak solutions to the generalized Leray problem with critical dissipation. Our method is based on the maximal smoothing effect, $L^{p}$-type elliptic regularity of linearization, and the action of the heat semigroup generated by the fractional powers of Laplace operator on distributions with Fourier transforms supported in an annulus. As a by-product, we shall construct a self-similar solution to the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and more importantly, prove the global regularity and the optimal decay without additional requirement of existing literatures.

description: As a promising learning paradigm integrating computation and communication, federated learning (FL) proceeds the local training and the periodic sharing from distributed clients. Due to the non-i.i.d. data distribution on clients, FL model suffers from the gradient diversity, poor performance, bad convergence, etc. In this work, we aim to tackle this key issue by adopting importance sampling (IS) for local training. We propose importance sampling federated learning (ISFL), an explicit framework with theoretical guarantees. Firstly, we derive the convergence theorem of ISFL to involve the effects of local importance sampling. Then, we formulate the problem of selecting optimal IS weights and obtain the theoretical solutions. We also employ a water-filling method to calculate the IS weights and develop the ISFL algorithms. The experimental results on CIFAR-10 fit the proposed theorems well and verify that ISFL reaps better performance, sampling efficiency, as well as explainability on non-i.i.d. data. To the best of our knowledge, ISFL is the first non-i.i.d. FL solution from the local sampling aspect which exhibits theoretical compatibility with neural network models. Furthermore, as a local sampling approach, ISFL can be easily migrated into other emerging FL frameworks.
Critical Making Workshops

description: This article explores how critical making - or a combination of critical thinking and making - could enhance and future-proof technical and vocational education and training (TVET). The article reports from a series of multi-stakeholder participatory workshops with educators, caretakers, pupils and makers. The workshops themselves represent an example of critical making, hereby providing the participants with an immediate understanding of the concept. Through discussions, the stakeholders mapped the viability, challenges and opportunities for a successful implementation of critical making into German curricula. The paper ends with reflections on the general difficulties of updating a curriculum and proposes a workaround: complementing the technical approach of the existing TVET curriculum with maker tools to foster digital skills and meta-level discussions to foster critical thinking.

description: ABSTRACT: For the past 20 years, the University of Vienna (UNIVIE)has offered Research Data Management services to its researchers, students, and support staff. More recently, UNIVIE has begun embedding Data Stewards within interested faculties. One of the goals of this approach is to provide tailored, discipline-specific support. An additional focus of this program is the education and support of the next generation of researchers.

In June of 2023, the Data Stewards at the Faculty of Life Sciences and the Centre for Microbiology and Environmental Systems Science) launched a new workshop dedicated to introducing Ph.D. candidates and Masters students in the life sciences to basic research data management. This course, entitled Research Data Management for Ph.D. Candidates in the Life Sciences, employs a blended learning approach that combines instruction with a variety of activities designed to encourage students to test their skills. Students are given an online module (~4 hours) to complete before attending two in-person half-day seminars. While the online module focuses on information transfer, the seminars prioritize activities, discussions, and questions + answers. Since the workshop’s launch, the UNIVIE Data Stewards working in the life sciences have continued to hone both the online module and the in-person seminars to evaluate which approaches perform well and which leave room for improvement. In January 2024, the online module, which was written in LiaScript, and the seminar materials were released on Zenodo (https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.10512974) as an open educational resource that can easily be reused and modified by others.

This poster/lightning talk provides an overview of the content of the course, the lessons learned by the UNIVIE Data Stewards working in the life sciences in the past 18 months, and future directions that include the launch of an Open Science Community to facilitate more advanced and specialized information exchange.
