description: This study concentrated on word problems in Grades Kindergarten-3 and the application of the Standards for Mathematical Practice and the Content Standards. The study also included an analysis of focus, coherence, and rigor in the materials. The textbooks used were among the first editions to be published after the acceptance of the Common Core State Standards in more than 40 states. The study analyzed the presence of the Common Core Standards in each series and how the three textbook series compared to each other in their word problem solving. The correlation of materials in the three textbook series relied on publishers’ descriptions in the Lesson Openers where the usages of the Standards for Mathematical Practice and the Content Standards and the principles of focus, coherence, and rigor are listed. The publishers’ descriptions were analyzed and compared to the individual evaluation criteria. Using an evaluation criterion, the study examined how Standards for Mathematical Practice were implemented in the textbooks. With the exception of a few grades in two textbook series, the texts displayed low percentages in their adherence to the Standards. The textbook series were similar in their development of word problems labeled with Standards for Mathematical Practice and word problems not labeled with the Standards. In this comparison, the only difference between the two types of word problems was in the verbiage. The Content Standards were used to determine the textbook series alignment with the Standards. The three textbook series showed low implementation of word problem Content Standards when compared to the total number of Standards. In two series, only one Content Standard was listed multiple times rather than a combination of comparable Standards. Relying on the publishers’ descriptions, the study showed how publishers implemented focus, coherence, and rigor in their materials. Of the three publishers, one publisher did not list coherence and rigor in its materials. The other two publishers adhered to focus and coherence in most or all of their materials. All of the publishers fell short in the application of rigor in their textbook series.

Model Selection in Utility-Maximizing Binary Prediction

description: The maximum utility estimation proposed by Elliott and Lieli (2013) can be viewed as cost-sensitive binary classification; thus, its in-sample overfitting issue is similar to that of perceptron learning. A utility-maximizing prediction rule (UMPR) is constructed to alleviate the in-sample overfitting of the maximum utility estimation. We establish non-asymptotic upper bounds on the difference between the maximal expected utility and the generalized expected utility of the UMPR. Simulation results show that the UMPR with an appropriate data-dependent penalty achieves larger generalized expected utility than common estimators in the binary classification if the conditional probability of the binary outcome is misspecified.

description: This short note aims to study quantum Hellinger distances investigated recently by Bhatia et al. [Lett. Math. Phys. 109 (2019), 1777-1804] with a particular emphasis on barycenters. We introduce the family of generalized quantum Hellinger divergences, that are of the form $ϕ(A,B)=\mathrm{Tr} \left((1-c)A + c B - A σB \right),$ where $σ$ is an arbitrary Kubo-Ando mean, and $c \in (0,1)$ is the weight of $σ.$ We note that these divergences belong to the family of maximal quantum $f$-divergences, and hence are jointly convex and satisfy the data processing inequality (DPI). We derive a characterization of the barycenter of finitely many positive definite operators for these generalized quantum Hellinger divergences. We note that the characterization of the barycenter as the weighted multivariate $1/2$-power mean, that was claimed in the work of Bhatia et al. mentioned above, is true in the case of commuting operators, but it is not correct in the general case.

description: This non-technical ‘think-piece’ examines aspects of infrastructure project evaluation, concentrating on circumstances that may render a standard cost benefit analysis (CBA) inappropriate. It is designed to make infrastructure investors and planners think deeply about their assumptions and to broaden the range of issues that are taken into account. Issues considered include: the role of CBA; network effects (increasing returns to scale) and the endogeneity of resources within an economy; the valuation of productive versus consumptive benefits; the value of traded versus non-traded sector production; the role and choice of the discount rate; and the importance of considering option values when making infrastructure investment and disinvestment decisions.
The Commedia's Metaphysics of Human Nature: Essays on Charity, Free Will and Ensoulment
Creators: Ballesteros, Humberto
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Literature, Medieval
subject: Philosophy
subject: FOS: Philosophy, ethics and religion
subject: Criticism

description: This dissertation aims to show that the Commedia develops an original and coherent philosophy of human nature. Deploying the methodologies of two separate disciplines, the history of philosophy and literary criticism, it places the poem’s ideas in the intellectual context in which they developed, and analyzes the learnedness, freshness and validity of its conclusions.
      The topic is divided in three themes, discussed in the same number of chapters:
      1) Love and desire. After following Arendt in tracing a tension in Augustine’s works between the theological primordiality of dilectio Dei and the biblically endorsed importance of love for one’s neighbor, I argue that the Commedia develops a concept of social charity that seeks to reconcile that seminal Christian paradox.
      2) Free will. Based on a study of the theory of free will advanced by Purgatorio and Paradiso, I advance the idea that Dante’s metaphysics and psychology of human freedom, particularly in regards to his description of the workings of absolute and relative will, contrast in a fundamental way with Aquinas’ in the Appendix of the Summa theologica; and based on that conclusion, and on an analysis of the example of Piccarda Donati, it is possible to conclude that the Commedia not only postulates a hierarchy of volitions as a necessary condition for human freedom, but also defines free will as the ability to formulate a self-forming action.
      3) Body and soul. Based on the account of the creation of the universe found in Paradiso XXIX, I argue that the Commedia’s cosmos is strictly hylomorphic, and postulate that this theory also applies to the relationship between body and soul. Thus the transumanar depicted by the last canticle, far from a rejection of worldly existence, rather implies a reencounter with those inalienably human characteristics, but on a higher plane.

description: This is a review of recent work on the chiral extensions of the WZNW phase space describing both the extensions based on fields with generic monodromy as well as those using Bloch waves with diagonal monodromy. The symplectic form on the extended phase space is inverted in both cases and the chiral WZNW fields are found to satisfy quadratic Poisson bracket relations characterized by monodromy dependent exchange r-matrices. Explicit expressions for the exchange r-matrices in terms of the arbitrary monodromy dependent 2-form appearing in the chiral WZNW symplectic form are given. The exchange r-matrices in the general case are shown to satisfy a new dynamical generalization of the classical modified Yang-Baxter (YB) equation and Poisson-Lie (PL) groupoids are constructed that encode this equation analogously as PL groups encode the classical YB equation. For an arbitrary simple Lie group $G$, exchange r-matrices are exhibited that are in one-to-one correspondence with the possible PL structures on $G$ and admit them as PL symmetries.

description: Workshop abstract Are you establishing and integrating EOSC activities within your country? Do you need more support and opportunities to swap experiences on how embark on an EOSC action plan and how to reach out effectively to research communities about EOSC services? EOSC is gathering a huge momentum, and how this new research support network is established at national level is now at a critical stage, aspects of which are ongoing at a variety of implementation levels in some member states. While activities are different in each country, they could benefit from and be supported by alignment and good practice exchange. This workshop initiated by OpenAIRE, EOSC hub, and RDA-Europe will explore, with the support of the recently funded EOSCsecretariat.eu project, two areas of implementing EOSC at national level: Establishing national action plans and working with research groups and libraries to raise awareness about EOSC. In particular the workshop will touch on how to set up national action plans, set priorities especially at governance level, how to establish coordinated commitment from key stakeholders and to develop value added support and commitments for local infrastructure within the EOSC vision. Another aspect will be that of serving local research groups and how to target specific EOSC services to them, which is a challenging part of EOSC implementation. This session will be structured in a way that will showcase regional examples of EOSC implementation and good practice. The breakout sessions will be grouped at a regional level in order to identify common threads. This workshop will also provide a perfect setting to meet and network with national counterparts and help prepare and pave the way to set up EOSC and a better understanding of how EOSC works at the national level.

description: We study the effective operators of the standard model fields which would yield an observable rate of neutrinoless double beta decay. We particularly focus on the possibility that neutrinoless double beta decay is dominantly induced by lepton-number-violating higher dimensional operators other than the Majorana neutrino mass. Our analysis can be applied to models in which neutrinoless double beta decay is induced either by a strong dynamics or by quantum gravity effects at a fundamental scale near the TeV scale as well as the conventional models in which neutrinoless double beta decay is induced by perturbative renormalizable interactions.

The Common Core State Standards as Applied to the Instruction of Students With Disabilities: Special Education Teachers' Perceptions

Special education teachers

description: The Common Core State Standards are a set of challenging learning goals in English language arts/literacy and math and their use in special education has been a controversial topic. On the one hand, many special education advocates have been pleased that the standards were written for all students, including students with disabilities. On the other hand, many special education teachers have been concerned that an overemphasis on the Common Core State Standards is limiting their students’ access to the full benefits of an Individualized Education Program, which is the central component of special education that makes it so special.
      	Recent research conducted on teachers across the United States has shown that, overall, they believe that the Common Core State Standards are beneficial for students. However, there is a gap in the research documenting the specific views of special education teachers. It is important to understand their experiences because they have the unique task of balancing the general education curriculum with individualized instruction that may include skills not covered by the Common Core. This study aims to address this gap by answering several key questions about the experiences of special education teachers who use the Common Core State Standards with students with disabilities.
             A total of 476 special education teachers from across the United States were surveyed. This study found that they have a moderately strong understanding of the standards and they frequently used them to guide their teaching. The results of this study showed that while the majority of these teachers echoed the general belief that the Common Core State Standards are beneficial for students without disabilities, they did not believe that they are beneficial for students with disabilities. Strikingly, 86.9% did not believe that the standards provide adequate information about their application to students with disabilities. Of concern, 70.9% reported that, when using these standards, they are unable to address their students’ individualized goals—especially in the areas of social and functional skills. Moreover, when asked if they believed that the Common Core State Standards would help their students to be prepared for independent life, 79.1% said “no.” These results yield important information regarding current practice using the Common Core State Standards in special education and suggest important implications for teacher training courses related to the Common Core State Standards and students with disabilities as well as how the Common Core State Standards document and guidance materials may be revised to better meet the needs of students with disabilities.

description: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments imposed lockdowns that forced hundreds of millions of citizens to stay at home. The implementation of confinement measures increased Internet traffic demands of residential users, in particular, for remote working, entertainment, commerce, and education, which, as a result, caused traffic shifts in the Internet core. In this paper, using data from a diverse set of vantage points (one ISP, three IXPs, and one metropolitan educational network), we examine the effect of these lockdowns on traffic shifts. We find that the traffic volume increased by 15-20% almost within a week – while overall still modest, this constitutes a large increase within this short time period. However, despite this surge, we observe that the Internet infrastructure is able to handle the new volume, as most traffic shifts occur outside of traditional peak hours. When looking directly at the traffic sources, it turns out that, while hypergiants still contribute a significant fraction of traffic, we see (1) a higher increase in traffic of non-hypergiants, and (2) traffic increases in applications that people use when at home, such as Web conferencing, VPN, and gaming. While many networks see increased traffic demands, in particular, those providing services to residential users, academic networks experience major overall decreases. Yet, in these networks, we can observe substantial increases when considering applications associated to remote working and lecturing.

The Comparative Cross-sectional Study on the Affordable Housing Finance Policy for low-income households: Lessons from NYC and Seoul

description: Most of the cities around the globe have suffered from serious housing affordability problems, and the situation becomes worse as economic inequality and social disparity widen. Based on this concern, this paper compares the affordable housing policy of two representative global cities: New York City and Seoul. As the first comprehensive cross-sectional study on the two cities, this paper primarily encapsulates financial tools for the enhancement of housing affordability. Granted their contrasting market contexts and policy strategies, this paper tries to derive some important implications and policy recommendations for each city from the intensive comparisons of demographic and socioeconomic backgrounds, housing policy history, and contemporary representative housing support programs including LIHTC and public housing. As a comparative methodology, the author utilizes his self-developed policy comparison model, coined as the SMART model, whose five major components are Subject class, target Market, policy Approach, Regulation intensity, and policy Tools. This paper portrays that New York’s affordable housing finance policy primarily puts weight on indirect subsidy including tax incentives and public-private partnerships as a conduit while specifically targeting low-income households via mixed-income developments. Instead, Seoul more centers on the broader range of classes such as young people and newlyweds via direct support programs including public housing and subsidized loans for rent, mainly utilizing $163.3 billion National Housing & Urban Fund. In conclusion, this paper makes some policy suggestions for each city to fill the gap of housing inequality through the lens of urban planners, policymakers, and financial experts.

description: The Common Good offers new perspectives on the early modern global revolution in ideas of economy and the polity. It argues that the modern Chinese state emerged from the disenchantment of a moral economy that had dominated since the sixteenth century. Monetization and commercialization produced both concepts of public goods and institutions pertaining to public properties that drew from medieval prototypes. Having no place within the formal legal system, the governance of these resources relied on supernatural justice, rituals of generosity, and a rhetoric of virtue that brought together popular practice and learned culture. By the nineteenth century, however, these moral and supernatural elements were superseded by new modes of accountability that replaced gods with notions of the public or the people, and by new technologies of public writing and reckoning that privileged numbers and calculations as reliable evidence. This shift in arbiters of trust generated what can be called an “accountable managerial state,” in contrast with the “agrarian legislative state” that persisted throughout the previous centuries in imperial China. At first glance, this trajectory bears a superficial resemblance to that of Europe during the early modern period. My analysis reveals, however, that these were native developments, originating at the level of local societies in China before working their way upward to the state level. In short, my research has brought entirely indigenous set of Chinese ideas and institutions into a global history of the state and political economy, as well as opened the way for rich comparative study with other parts of the world.

description: In Ergänzung zu unserer Studie über die Verwilderungen von kultivierten Arten im Freiland des Botanischen Gartens Braunschweig (BRANDES & NITZSCHE 2013) haben wir auch die Verwilderungen innerhalb der Gewächshäuser untersucht. Wenn auch die meisten der dort subspontan angetroffenen Arten in Mitteleuropa (unter den derzeitigen Klimabedingungen) wohl nicht im Freien überleben können und deswegen natürlich nicht zu seiner Flora gerechnet werden können, gibt es doch einige wenige Arten, die an Sonderstandorten in wintermilden Gebieten Mitteleuropas bereits als unbeständige Neophyten gefunden wurden. Da Anfangsstadien der Ausbreitung von gebietsfremden Pflanzenarten nur in Sonderfällen beobachtet werden können und konnten, erscheint uns eine Dokumentation des Ist-Zustandes sinnvoll. Sie lässt zugleich gewisse Rückschlüsse auf das „Verwilderungspotenzial“ einzelner Zierpflanzen unter warm-temperierten Bedingungen zu.
Seit November 2010 wird vom Erstautor eine Inventur und Revision des gesamten kultivierten, verwilderten und spontanen Artenbestandes im Botanischen Garten Braunschweig durchgeführt. Dabei wurde der Garten auch als Sonderhabitat im Kontext der Erforschung urbaner Lebensräume untersucht. Wenn auch die Fläche der Gewächshäuser ebenso wie diejenige der Freiflächen vergleichsweise klein ist, so ist der erreichte Vollständigkeitsgrad doch sehr hoch anzusetzen.
description: grounds of the Botanical Garden of Braunschweig (BRANDES & NITZSCHE 2013), we examined the naturalization of plants inside the greenhouses. Most of the found subspontaneous species could not survive outdoors in central Europe (due to the current climatic conditions) and are therefore of course not included in its flora. But among these are a few species that have been found to be transient neophytes in special habitats of winter-mild areas in central Europe. Since the first stages of expansion of non-indigenous plant species can only be observed under special circumstances, it appeared appropriate to document the current situation. It also allows certain conclusions to be drawn on the “naturalization potential” of several ornamental plants under warm-temperate conditions.
The first author performs since November 2010 an inventory and revision of the entire stock of cultivated, naturalized and spontaneous species of the Botanical Garden of Braunschweig. While doing so, the garden was also examined as a special habitat in context of the research on urban biotopes. Even so the area of the greenhouses, as well as those of the exterior planting grounds, is relatively small, the attained grade of completion has to be valued highly.

description: We study the diagonalization problem of certain Hofstadter-type models through the algebraic Bethe ansatz equation by the algebraic geometry method. When the spectral variables lie on a rational curve, we obtain the complete and explicit solutions for models with the rational magnetic flux, and discuss the Bethe equation of their thermodynamic flux limit. The algebraic geometry properties of the Bethe equation on high genus algebraic curves are investigated in cooperation

The Computational Attitude in Music Theory

description: Music studies’s turn to computation during the twentieth century has engendered particular habits of thought about music, habits that remain in operation long after the music scholar has stepped away from the computer. The computational attitude is a way of thinking about music that is learned at the computer but can be applied away from it. It may be manifest in actual computer use, or in invocations of computationalism, a theory of mind whose influence on twentieth-century music theory is palpable. It may also be manifest in more informal discussions about music, which make liberal use of computational metaphors. In Chapter 1, I describe this attitude, the stakes for considering the computer as one of its instruments, and the kinds of historical sources and methodologies we might draw on to chart its ascendance. The remainder of this dissertation considers distinct and varied cases from the mid-twentieth century in which computers or computationalist musical ideas were used to pursue new musical objects, to quantify and classify musical scores as data, and to instantiate a generally music-structuralist mode of analysis. I present an account of the decades-long effort to prepare an exhaustive and accurate catalog of the all-interval twelve-tone series (Chapter 2). This problem was first posed in the 1920s but was not solved until 1959, when the composer Hanns Jelinek collaborated with the computer engineer Heinz Zemanek to jointly develop and run a computer program. Recognizing the transformation wrought on modern statistics and communications technology by information theory, I revisit Abraham Moles’s book Information Theory and Esthetic Perception (orig. 1958) and use its vocabulary to contextualize contemporary information-theoretic work on music that various evokes the computational mind by John. R. Pierce and Mary Shannon, Wilhelm Fucks, and Henry Quastler (Chapter 3). I conclude with a detailed look into a score-segmentation algorithm of the influential American music theorist Allen Forte (Chapter 4). Forte was a skilled programmer who spent several years at MIT in the 1960s, with cutting-edge computers and the company of first-rank figures in the nascent fields of computer science and artificial intelligence. Each one of the researchers whose work is treated in these case studies—at some stage in their relationship with music—adopted what I call the computational attitude to music, to varying degrees and for diverse ends. Of the many questions this dissertation seeks to answer: what was gained by adopting such an attitude? What was lost? Having understood these past explorations of the computational attitude to music, we are better suited ask of ourselves the same questions today.

The Commuter's Cathedral: An Examination of the George Washington Bridge Bus Station

description: Commissioned in 1959 by the Port of Authority New York and New Jersey, the George Washington Bridge Bus Station provided a much needed commuter transportation hub for residents living in the suburbs of Northern New Jersey since its opening in 1963. Located in the Washington Heights neighborhood of upper Manhattan, the Bus Station is an architectural and structural gem designed by the celebrated Italian engineer Pier Luigi Nervi (1891-1979). In the nearly fifty years since its completion, the Bus Station has received a combination of praise and derision. Despite its pedigree and important role in the greater tri-state area, a full examination of its history, aesthetic, form and function has never been completed. This thesis contextualizes the Bus Station as part of a larger project to improve and overhaul the transportation infrastructure across the greater New York metropolitan area. It is an examination that explores the cultural, demographic and transportation shifts and developments on both sides of the Hudson River throughout much of the twentieth century. Along with an analysis of the Bus Station, this thesis explores how the philosophy and approach of Pier Luigi Nervi merged with the needs, politics and wants of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Furthermore, the George Washington Bridge Bus Station is recognized for its intricately crafted reinforced concrete forms, signature details by the great Italian "master-builder." Yet, unlike many of his barrel-vaulted domes and expansive exhibition spaces, Nervi utilized a distinct multi-peak roofline for the George Washington Bridge Bus Station. This research examines construction and significance of one of Nervi's earliest American projects within the continuum of Nervi's career and the context of an aesthetic expression of engineering. The George Washington Bridge Bus Station is a distinct structure not just within New York, but within the greater scope of all of Nervi's work.
