description: New fossil vertebrates from the most representative Upper Pleistocene section (Tyrrhenian, MIS 5e) of the outcrop of San Giovanni di Sinis (Oristano, Sardinia) are here reported and described. The fossils, although scarce and fragmentary, document the occurrence of a terrapin (Mauremys sp.) and the endemic Sardinian deer (Praemegaceros cazioti). Significant is the occurrence of the terrapin because it is the youngest representative of the genus in the central Mediterranean area where it is extinct at present. The Late Pleistocene extinction of Mauremys in Italy follows the same pattern of other Mediterranean reptiles, in being in some cases delayed on the islands. A comparison of the modern range of Mauremys and that of the pond turtle, Emys, as well as of their past ranges as evidenced by the fossil record, might suggest that some sort of thermophily (at least during pre-hatching stages) characterized the former taxon and is responsible for its past and present distribution.

description: UHV dynamic force and energy dissipation spectroscopy in non-contact atomic force microscopy were used to probe specific interactions with composite systems formed by encapsulating inorganic compounds inside single-walled carbon nanotubes. It is found that forces due to nano-scale van der Waals interaction can be made to decrease by combining an Ag core and a carbon nanotube shell in the Ag@SWNT system. This specific behaviour was attributed to a significantly different effective dielectric function compared to the individual constituents, evaluated using a simple core-shell optical model. Energy dissipation measurements showed that by filling dissipation increases, explained here by softening of C-C bonds resulting in a more deformable nanotube cage. Thus, filled and unfilled nanotubes can be discriminated based on force and dissipation measurements. These findings have two different implications for potential applications: tuning the effective optical properties and tuning the interaction force for molecular absorption by appropriately choosing the filling with respect to the nanotube.

description: This thesis belongs to the field of School Pedagogic and its subject is closely related to the interaction between teachers and students in a classroom. More specifically, the thesis attempts to approach theoretically and explore empirically the importance of discipline in the classroom. In the first part, we state and examine a number of aspects concerning the definition of disciplinary problems in the classroom such as the causes that are responsible for their appearance and also the methods a teacher can apply in order to solve disciplinary problems.Furthermore, we declare how important is to prevent these problems in the classroom.In the second part, we analyze data taken from teachers from the city of Kozani and we try to interpret these thoughts and beliefs so as to reach conclusions about the disciplinary problems that teachers face, the students involved, the causes for their appearance and the methods the teachers apply to solve them.
NEW SIRENIAN RECORD FROM LOWER PLIOCENE SEDIMENTS OF TUSCANY (ITALY)

description: A left humerus of a sirenian found in the upper part of a marine succession from Camigliano (Siena, Italy) is described. Foraminiferal assemblages reveal that this humerus belongs to a specimen living during the early Zanclean (Globorotalia margaritae Zone) in a shallow marine environment and that was probably subjected to post-mortem transport to a shelf environment under storm wave action. This new Tuscan record can be ascribed, for size and stratigraphic position, to Metaxytherium cf. subapenninum. The dimensional comparison of this humerus with those of its supposed ancestor M. serresii confirms the remarkable increase in body size of M. subapenninum compared with the former M. serresii.

description: During several field work campaigns to the Karakorum Mountains samples containing Devonian macrofossils were collected by M. Gaetani and P. Le Fort, mostly in the uppermost Yarkhun Valley (Northern Pakistan). Generally, Devonian rocks are outcropping rather extensively in several thrust sheets of the Northern Karakorum Terrain, namely in the Chillinji, Baroghil/Lashkargaz, and the Karambar Units. The dolostones of the Tash Kupruk Zone, similar to the Chilmarabad Fm. of the previous units, are also Devonian in age. Fossils mentioned below originate from measured logs (Yarkhun River, Chillinji, Ribat), others from isolated localities. Identification of most of the fossils on species, or even at genus-level is difficult due to their moderate to poor state of preservation. Recrystallisation phenomena that had affected particularly porous skeletons, especially those with small-sized intra-skeletal cavities (i.e. intra-tabular spaces of small-sized tabulate corallites, and inter-laminar spaces of stromatoporoid skeletons) often preclude reliable determination. Nevertheless, from the following formations tabulate corals and calcareous green-algae could be determined: Chilmarabad Fm. (Lashkargaz/Baroghil Unit,), Shogram Fm. (Yarkhun River section), Margach Fm. (Ribat section), the Tash Kupruk dolostones (loose blocks north of Inkip). The taxa described are Pseudopalaeoporella ? sp., Receptaculites cf. chardini, Pachyfavosites polymorphus, Thamnopora grandis, Thamnopora cf. longdongshuiensis, Thamnopora cf. reticulata, Celechopora devonica, Alveolites (Alveolites) hudlestoni, Heliolites ? sp., Pachycanalicula ? sp., "Caunopora", and Helicosalpix asturiana. Most of the fossils described point to Middle to Upper Givetian age, although they are not particularly age diagnostic.

description: Human action recognition has become one of the most active field of research in computer vision due to its wide range of applications, like surveillance, medical, industrial environments, smart homes, among others. Recently, deep learning has been successfully used to learn powerful and interpretable features for recognizing human actions in videos. Most of the existing deep learning approaches have been designed for processing video information as RGB image sequences. For this reason, a preliminary decoding process is required, since video data are often stored in a compressed format. However, a high computational load and memory usage is demanded for decoding a video. To overcome this problem, we propose a deep neural network capable of learning straight from compressed video. Our approach was evaluated on two public benchmarks, the UCF-101 and HMDB-51 datasets, demonstrating comparable recognition performance to the state-of-the-art methods, with the advantage of running up to 2 times faster in terms of inference speed.

description: We report on what we believe is the first demonstration of an optically activated cantilever due to photomechanical effects in a dye-doped polymer optical fiber. The fiber is observed to bend when light is launched off-axis. The displacement angle monotonically increases as a function of the distance between the illumination point and the fiber axis, and is consistent with differential light-induced length changes. The photothermal and photo-reorientation mechanisms, each with its own distinct response time, are proposed to explain the observed time dependence. The measured degree of bending is consistent with a model that we have proposed which includes coupling between photoisomerization and heating. Most importantly, we have discovered that at high light intensity, a cooperative release of stress results in cis-to-trans isomerization that yields a large and abrupt length change.

description: Asadabad section in Central Iran is one of the most complete sequences so far described across the Carboniferous of Iran. The stratigraphic and biostratigraphic data on the sediments overlying the Devonian carbonate platform give evidence about the duration of shallow water depositional evolution. There are thirty productive levels with conodonts in the Carbonifeous section ranging in age from early Tournaisian to the top of Bashkirian (Lower expansa - sulcata to sinuosus zones). There is scarce evidence about the elongatus Zone presence - Late Pennsylvanian. Sulcata to anchoralis-latus conodont zones in Shishtu Formation and muricatus to sinuosus Zone and a possible elongatus Zone in Sardar Formation have been indentified. These conodont zones are reported for the first time in that area. A crinoidal limestone - key bed horizon, is traceable in the studied area as well as in other parts of Iran. It is Early Pennsylvanian-Bashkirian in age and is correlated to sinuatus-minutus Zone. The studied Shishtu and Sardar Formations (Carboniferous) as well as Vazhnan and Surmaq Formation (Permian) in the section belong to marine near shore sedimentation with many macrofaunal remains.

The abundance, distribution and brood parasitism of upland-breeding warbling vireos in a fragmented forest landscape
Creators: name: Fonnesbeck, Christopher James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In a two-year study of the Warbling Vireo Vireo gilvus, I explore patterns of distribution, habitat, and brood parasitism along an elevation gradient in the South Okanagan region, British Columbia using landscape analyses. The Warbling Vireo is threatened at low elevations in the Okanagan by intense parasitism pressure by Brown-headed Cowbirds Molothrus ater. Vireo persistence may depend upon neighbouring source populations in the montane forests overlooking the valley. In the first part of the study, I found brood parasitism to be significantly lower in higher elevation forests compared to the valley. Cowbirds are less and parasitise fewer species upland. Of sampled nests, only the Warbling Vireo is parasitised frequently, with approximately 30 percent of all nests suffering parasitism in the forest. Such low levels of cowbird activity are likely due to food limitation, since host species dominate the songbird community. Levels of upland parasitism were not linearly correlated with proximity to the valley, either due to sampling error or to local-scale ecological factors. Forest cover appears to affect parasitism levels, with most parasitism occurring on sites of moderate tree density. The second part of my study employs variables derived from digital forest inventory maps that are used to predict Warbling Vireo distribution and avian species richness across the Okanagan Forest at two spatial scales. The presence of vireos is positively correlated with early serai stage variables at both the local stand level and the landscape level. At the landscape scale, species richness is associated positively with habitat diversity, and negatively with mature forest area in a multiple regression model. Though sustained industrial forestry in the Okanagan Forest may enhance avian diversity and Warbling Vireo habitat alike, the frequency of vireo detections is significantly lower at higher elevation. This reduces the likelihood that montane forest is a source of Warbling Vireos for the valley, in spite of decreased parasitism pressure in upland habitat.

description: Examination of the calcareous microfossil from the Anisian reef limestones of the Aggtelek Mountains, northern Hungary, described as Axopora aggtelekensis by Scholz, supports the cyanobacterian nature of this organism. It is not a Hydrozoa as originally thought by Scholz. For this microfossils, occuring in Triassic shallow water carbonates the new genus Anisophytes is proposed. The differences between Anisophytes, as gregarious microfossil composed of tubes, and other similar looking organisms, like Tubiphytes, Aeolisaccus kotori Radoicic, Koivaella Tchuvashov or Proaulopora Vologdin is discussed. Anisophytes is attributed tentatively to Cyanophyceans.

Ο Ισοκράτης, ένας από τους σημαντικότερους ρήτορες του 4ου αιώνα π.Χ. εκμεταλλεύεται το υλικό που αντλεί από τους επιταφίους για να εξυπηρετήσει τους δικούς του στόχους
description: This essay presents the encomiastic motives of Athens in Panegyricus of Isocrates and attempts a comparison with the extant funeral speeches. It is obvi-ous that Isocrates, one of the most famous orators of 4th century B. C. takes his material from the funeral speeches to serve his own purposes. In the text there are similarities with Thucydides, Lysias, Platon and Demosthenes, but there are also many differences. In particular in the encomium of Athens the orator underlines the autochthony of the city, the Eleusinian mysteries, the settlement, the cultural influence, the mythic (Heracleides, Adrastos, Amazons, Thaces) and the Persian wars. The treatment of these common is what makes a great impression. Isocrates dispences Athens from any sign of selfishness and imperialism and presents his city as protector and savior of Greece. He often uses different versions of the myths and deliberately distorts history in order to keep up with his Athenian propaganda. It is worth to notice that the orator combines and adapts the motives in order to support the Athenian hegemony in a future expedition against Persians. What mostly directs his thought is the panhellenic ideal, which is peace between Greeks and attack against the barbarians. With the Panegyricus addresses a pan-hellenic call and tries with arguments already known to his public to prove that mostly in Athens deserves to undertake the hegemony of the antibarbarian attack just like it did in the past.
Radiative process of two entangled uniformly accelerated atoms in a thermal bath: a possible case of anti-Unruh event

description: We study the radiative process of two entangled two-level atoms uniformly accelerated in a thermal bath, coupled to a massless scalar field. First, using the positive frequency Wightman function from the Minkowski modes with a Rindler transformation we provide the transition probabilities for the transitions from maximally entangled symmetric and anti-symmetric Bell states to the collective excited state in $(1+1)$ and $(1+3)$ dimensions. We observe a possible case of \emph{anti-Unruh-like} event in these transition probabilities, though the $(1+1)$ and $(1+3)$ dimensional results are not completely equivalent. We infer that thermal bath plays a major role in the occurrence of the anti-Unruh-like effect, as it is also present in the transition probabilities corresponding to a single detector in this case. Second, we have considered the Green's functions in terms of the Rindler modes with the vacuum of Unruh modes for estimating the same. Here the anti-Unruh effect appears only for the transition from the anti-symmetric state to the collective excited state. It is noticed that here the $(1+1)$ and $(1+3)$ dimensional results are equivalent, and for a single detector, we do not observe any anti-Unruh effect. This suggests that the entanglement between the states of the atoms is the main cause for the observed anti-Unruh effect in this case. In going through the investigation, we find that the transition probability for a single detector case is symmetric under the interchange between the thermal bath's temperature and the Unruh temperature for Rindler mode analysis; whereas this is not the case for Minkowski mode. We further comment on whether this observation may shed light on the analogy between an accelerated observer and a real thermal bath. An elaborate investigation for the classifications of our observed anti-Unruh effects is also thoroughly demonstrated.

description: Recently d0 or intrinsic ferromagnetism was believed to provide an alternative pathway to transition metal induced ferromagnetism in oxide. In pursuit of augmenting the area of d0 ferromagnetism; we have undertaken to study the crystal structure and magnetic properties of Ag-doped ZrO2 compounds. Polycrystalline samples of Zr1-xAgxO2 (with x=0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 and 0.08) were prepared by solid-state reaction route. All the prepared compounds are found to crystallize in monoclinic symmetry of ZrO2. In our study, pure ZrO2 compound exhibits paramagnetic behavior. However, the Ag-doped ZrO2 compounds exhibit ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transition. The Curie temperature was found to increase from 28.7 K for x=0.02 to 173.2 K for x= 0.08 doped ZrO2. Thus, the introduction of Ag in ZrO2 induces ferromagnetism with a large ThetaC. The measurements of hysteresis curves indicate that Ag doped ZrO2 compounds exhibit hysteresis loops with a coercivity of around 1350 Oe. Moreover, increase in Ag concentration resulted increase in the value of saturation magnetization (MS); the maximum value of MS was recorded as 0.01 μB/Ag ion for x= 0.06 sample. The sintering of sample at high temperature (13500C) diminishes the ferromagnetism and it leads to paramagnetic behaviour.

description: We report on mutual proximity effects in d-wave superconductor/half-metal heterostructures which correspond to systems composed of high-Tc cuprates and manganite materials. In our study, proximity effects are induced by the interplay of two separate interface effects: spin-mixing (or rotation) surface scattering and spin-flip scattering. The surface spin-mixing scattering introduces spin-triplet pairing correlations in superconducting side; as a result, Andreev bound states are formed at energies within the superconducting gap. The spin-flip scattering introduces not only long range equal-spin pairing amplitudes in the half-metal, but also an exotic magnetic proximity effect extending into the superconductor.

description: The early history of the Semionotiformes is still scarcely known as, apart from the Permian Acentrophorus, most of the Early and Middle Triassic taxa traditionally ascribed to this order are often poorly known and/or they actually belong to other groups. Sangiorgioichthys aldae gen. n. sp. n. is described from the Upper Ladinian Kalkschieferzone (Upper Meride Limestone) of the Monte San Giorgio area on specimens coming from both Italy and Switzerland. The new genus is ascribed to the family Semionotidae as it shows several of the characters usually considered as diagnostic of the family itself, even if no real synapomorphies have been so far proposed for it. As a Semionotidae, Sangiorgioichthys gen. n. has an almost complete circumorbital series, large ascending process of the premaxilla, rostral and nasals almost tube-like, short maxilla, several suborbital bones posterior and ventral to the infraorbitals, long antero-dorsal process of the suboperculum, sensory canal system very rich in pores, mid dorsal ridge scales with an incipient spine. Peculiar characters of the new genus are dermal skull bones completely covered by ganoine, a very large ventral infraorbital almost attaining the anterior edge of the preoperculum, two ‘ventral’ suborbitals, very elongate anterior supraorbital bone,  dentition made of a number of tiny pencil-like teeth, anterior and posterior lateral line scales differentiated.

description: Using cloud-based computer vision services is gaining traction, where developers access AI-powered components through familiar RESTful APIs, not needing to orchestrate large training and inference infrastructures or curate/label training datasets. However, while these APIs seem familiar to use, their non-deterministic run-time behaviour and evolution is not adequately communicated to developers. Therefore, improving these services' API documentation is paramount-more extensive documentation facilitates the development process of intelligent software. In a prior study, we extracted 34 API documentation artefacts from 21 seminal works, devising a taxonomy of five key requirements to produce quality API documentation. We extend this study in two ways. Firstly, by surveying 104 developers of varying experience to understand what API documentation artefacts are of most value to practitioners. Secondly, identifying which of these highly-valued artefacts are or are not well-documented through a case study in the emerging computer vision service domain. We identify: (i) several gaps in the software engineering literature, where aspects of API documentation understanding is/is not extensively investigated; and (ii) where industry vendors (in contrast) document artefacts to better serve their end-developers. We provide a set of recommendations to enhance intelligent software documentation for both vendors and the wider research community.

description: Leaves of Sloanea elliptica (Andreánszky) Z. Kvaèek & Hably and S. peolai (Principi) Hably, Tamás & Cioppi  with preserved organic structures were found during the study of Principi’s collection from the Oligocene flora of Santa Giustina. Fossil leaves of Sloanea elliptica have so far been recorded exclusively from the Palaeogene Basin of the Inner Carpathian Region, i.e. from the Lower Oligocene strata of Hungary and Slovenia, whereas S. peolai has been described from a single locality, Chiavon in Italy. Organic structure of S. peolai hitherto has not been recorded. The mass occurrence of Sloanea elliptica in the fossil assemblage of Santa Giustina indicates that its area was much more extensive than it was presumed. It was a characteristic element mainly of Oligocene floras, and even predominated them. This is the first record of the co-occurrence of two Sloanea species described on the basis of leaf remains. During the study 6 types and more than 30 illustrated specimens published in Principi's monograph were revised and identified as S. elliptica.

Τα παιδιά αυτής της ηλικίας είναι σε θέση να αντιλαμβάνονται αξιόπιστα και έγκυρα την μοναξιά(Γαλανάκης Μπεξεβέγκης, 1996). Μέσα από την θεωρητική διερεύνηση βρέθηκε ότι η μοναξιά σχετίζεται άμεσα με τα ατομικά χαρακτηριστικά των παιδιών. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, η μοναξιά σχετίζεται με τις βασικές συνιστώσεις της έννοιας του εαυτού, την αυτοαντίληψη και την αυτοεκτίμηση(Margarit, 1994. Sletta, et.al, 1996. Valas, 1999). Τα ευρύματα έδειξαν ότι ένα σημαντικό ποσοστό των παιδιών αισθάνεται μοναξιά και αυτό ισχύει σημαντικά περισσότερο για τα μικότερα παιδιά. Η χαμηλή σχολ. επίδοση συνυπάρχει με την μοναξιά, την χαμηλή αυτοεκτίμηση και χαμηλή αυτοαντίληψη. Τα ευρήματα αξιολογούνται με βάση τις πρακτικές συνέπειες τους για το έργο του εκπαιδευτικού.
description: The aim of the present study was to investigate loneliness and social dissatisfaction in school age children, foccusing on the school context. Children of this age are able to understand the conception of loneliness (Galanakis Bezevegis, 1996). Several studies have conceptualized the manner and the extend to which loneliness experience can be investigated as a function of individual personality structure. In particular, low selfsteem as well as self concept were found to be associated with loneliness among children (Margalit 1994. Sletta et. al,1996.Valas, 1999). Results showed that a considerable propotional of children are high in loneliness, younger children experience significantly more loneliness than older ones. When loneliness was examined in relation to selfsteem a negative relationship emerged.
Transcription activation of the BMR promoter of bacillus subtilis by BMRR
Creators: name: Law, Grace Sau-Han
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The bmr gene, encoding the Bacillus subtilis multidrug efflux protein Bmr, is positively regulated by the protein BmrR. In vivo, transcription of the bmr promoter occurs at a low, basal level in the absence of drug. When a drug substrate of Bmr such as rhodamine 6G is added to cells, transcription is enhanced approximately 18 fold from basal levels. In vitro characterization of BmrR and RNAP binding to the bmr promoter showed that RNAP did not bind to linear DNA fragments containing the promoter region unless BmrR was also present. Binding of both BmrR and RNAP was enhanced approximately 2 fold when rhodamine 6G was added. Using a supercoiled template, RNAP appeared to be able to bind on its own. Results from in vitro transcription assays indicated that RNAP was unable to transcribe a linear template containing the bmr promoter by itself. BmrR together with RNAP allowed a low level of transcription, and addition of rhodamine 6G enhanced transcription approximately 3 fold. On a supercoiled template, RNAP was capable of transcribing from the bmr promoter without BmrR, and BmrR itself did not enhance transcription unless rhodamine 6G was added. Thus, transcription enhancement in the presence of rhodamine 6G was likely due to enhanced binding of BmrR and RNAP.

description: We examine the effect of adding pion exchange between quarks and pion self-energy corrections to the Los Alamos Relativistic Quark model with a short distance cutoff of the Bethe form. The contributions to the nucleon and the Delta-baryon are small. We conclude that the model is stable under this change in the sense that significant changes to the model parameters are not required.

description: Astrophysical observations show complex organic molecules (COMs) in the gas phase of protoplanetary disks. X-rays emitted from the central young stellar object (YSO) that irradiate interstellar ices in the disk, followed by the ejection of molecules in the gas phase, are a possible route to explain the abundances observed in the cold regions. This process, known as X-ray photodesorption, needs to be quantified for methanol-containing ices. We aim at experimentally measuring X-ray photodesorption yields of methanol and its photo-products from binary mixed ices: $^{13}$CO:CH$_3$OH ice and H$_2$O:CH$_3$OH ice. We irradiated these ices at 15 K with X-rays in the 525 - 570 eV range. The release of species in the gas phase was monitored by quadrupole mass spectrometry, and photodesorption yields were derived. For $^{13}$CO:CH$_3$OH ice, CH$_3$OH X-ray photodesorption yield is estimated to be 10$^{-2}$ molecule/photon at 564 eV. X-ray photodesorption of larger COMs, which can be attributed to either ethanol, dimethyl ether, and/or formic acid, is detected with a yield of 10$^{-3}$ molecule/photon. When methanol is mixed with water, X-ray photodesorption of methanol and of the previous COMs is not detected. X-ray induced chemistry, dominated by low-energy secondary electrons, is found to be the main mechanism that explains these results. We also provide desorption yields that are applicable to protoplanetary disk environments for astrochemical models. The X-ray emission from YSOs should participate in the enrichment of the protoplanetary disk gas phase with COMs such as methanol in the cold and X-ray dominated regions because of X-ray photodesorption from methanol-containing ices.

Η Κύπρος τα τελευταία χρόνια δέχτηκε μεγάλο αριθμό μεταναστών, προσφύγων και ξένων εργατών από χώρες των Ποντιακών εδαφών/ περιοχών της πρώην Σοβιετικής Ένωσης και της Νοτιοανατολικής Ασίας. Δεν πρέπει να ξεχνάμε και τους Τουρκοκύπριους οι οποίοι προτίμησαν να έλθουν και να κατοικήσουν στις ελεύθερες περιοχές της Κύπρου. Επίσης, με την ένταξή μας στην Ε.Ε. πολλοί άνθρωποι από διάφορες Ευρωπαϊκές χώρες προτιμούν να ζήσουν και να εργαστούν στο νησί μας. Οι περισσότεροι αυτόχθονες Κύπριοι βλέπουν με καχυποψία τους ξένους, γι' αυτό πρέπει να ευαισθητοποιηθούν και να βρουν τρόπους συμβίωσης των διαφόρων πολιτισμών και κοινωνικών ομάδων.
description: Over the last few years Cyprus has experienced a large influx of immigrants, refugees and foreing workers. At the same time our accession into the European Union has led to many Europeans choosing to live and work on our Island. The majority of schools in Cyprus have pupils from different countries. This research paper aims to show the smooth intergration of pupils from various cultures. Research has been conducted bibliographically, evidence-based and also on-sight. In the bibliographically research the terms multi-cultural and intercultural society were analysed and the situation in Cyprus was presented. For the evidence-based research evidence was collected from the Ministry of Education. For on-sight research, interviews were conducted with the teaching staff at St. Antony's Secondary school in Limassol which is a multicultural school.
$θ-$ Parameter in 2 Color QCD at Finite Baryon and Isospin Density

description: We use 2-color QCD as a model to study the effects of simultaneous presence of the so-called $θ$ parameter, chemical potentials for baryon number, $μ_B$ and for isospin charge, $μ_I$. We pay special attention to $θ$, $μ_B$, $μ_I$ dependence of different vacuum condensates, including chiral and diquark condensates, as well as the gluon condensate, $$, and the topological susceptibility. We find that two phase transitions of the second order will occur when $θ$ relaxes from $θ=2π$ to $θ=0$, if $μ$ is of order of the pion mass. We demonstrate that the transition to the superfluid phase at $θ= π$ occurs at a much lower chemical potential than at $θ= 0$. We also show that the strong $θ$ dependence present near $θ= π$ in vacuum (Dashen's phenomenon), becomes smoothed out in the superfluid phase. Finally, we comment on the relevance of this study for the real world with N_c=3.

description: Noncentrosymmetric nature of single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides manifest itself in the finite piezoelectricity and valley-Zeeman coupling. We microscopically model nonlinear exciton transport in nano-bubble of single-layers of transition metal dichalcogenide. Thanks to the giant piezoelectric effect, we obtain an enormous internal electric field, $E_{\rm piezo}\sim 10^7$V/m, resulting in a built-in dipole moment of excitons. We demonstrate that the piezo-induced dipole-dipole interaction provides a novel channel for the nonlinear exciton transport distinct from the conventional isotropic funneling of excitons and leading to the formation of hexagon-shaped exciton droplet on top of a circularly symmetric nano-bubble. The effect is tunable via the bubble size dependence of the piezo-electric field $E_{\rm piezo} \sim h^2_{\rm max}/R^3$ with $h_{\rm max}$ and $R$ being the bubble height and radius, respectively.
Certifying Inexpressibility

description: Different classes of automata on infinite words have different expressive power. Deciding whether a given language $L \subseteq Σ^ω$ can be expressed by an automaton of a desired class can be reduced to deciding a game between Prover and Refuter: in each turn of the game, Refuter provides a letter in $Σ$, and Prover responds with an annotation of the current state of the run (for example, in the case of Büchi automata, whether the state is accepting or rejecting, and in the case of parity automata, what the color of the state is). Prover wins if the sequence of annotations she generates is correct: it is an accepting run iff the word generated by Refuter is in $L$. We show how a winning strategy for Refuter can serve as a simple and easy-to-understand certificate to inexpressibility, and how it induces additional forms of certificates. Our framework handles all classes of deterministic automata, including ones with structural restrictions like weak automata. In addition, it can be used for refuting separation of two languages by an automaton of the desired class, and for finding automata that approximate $L$ and belong to the desired class.

description: Presented in the King's College London Department of Geography Research Seminar Series on 3 February 2021. Abstract: Land use and fire are integral to many aspects of global environmental change. Much of my past research has used modelling to examine these issues at what might be termed 'landscape scales' on the order of 100s of sq km, but more recently I've been involved in projects that model human-driven change across much broader extents. In this seminar I discuss two of those projects and the challenges faced in moving between the scales. One project examines land use change in Brazil as driven by international demand for agricultural commodities. The other aims to improve the representation of anthropogenic fire in dynamic global vegetation models.

description: We discuss the application of two-particle-irreducible (2PI) functional techniques to gauge theories, focusing on the issue of non-perturbative renormalization. In particular, we show how to renormalize the photon and fermion propagators of QED obtained from a systematic loop expansion of the 2PI effective action. At any finite order, this implies introducing new counterterms as compared to the usual ones in perturbation theory. We show that these new counterterms are consistent with the 2PI Ward identities and are systematically of higher order than the approximation order, which guarantees the convergence of the approximation scheme. Our analysis can be applied to any theory with linearly realized gauge symmetry. This is for instance the case of QCD quantized in the background field gauge.
