description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: We propose an iterative estimating equations procedure for analysis of longitudinal data. We show that, under very mild conditions, the probability that the procedure converges at an exponential rate tends to one as the sample size increases to infinity. Furthermore, we show that the limiting estimator is consistent and asymptotically efficient, as expected. The method applies to semiparametric regression models with unspecified covariances among the observations. In the special case of linear models, the procedure reduces to iterative reweighted least squares. Finite sample performance of the procedure is studied by simulations, and compared with other methods. A numerical example from a medical study is considered to illustrate the application of the method.

Electron mirror branch: Observational evidence from "historical" AMPTE-IRM and Equator-S measurements

description: Based on now historical magnetic and plasma data and available wave spectra from the AMPTE-IRM spacecraft, and on as well historical Equator-S high-cadence magnetic field observations of mirror modes in the magnetosheath near the dayside magnetopause, we present some observational evidence for a recent theoretical evaluation by Noreen et al. (2017) of the contribution of a global electron temperature anisotropy to the evolution of mirror modes in the high-temperature anisotropic collisionless plasma of the magnetosheath causing a separate electron mirror branch. These old data most probably indicate that signatures of this electron effect on mirror modes had indeed been observed already long ago in magnetic and wave data though had not been recognised as such. Unfortunately either poor time resolution or complete lack of plasma data would have inhibited the confirmation of the notoriously required pressure balance in the electron branch for unambiguous confirmation of a separate electron mirror mode. If confirmed by future high-resolution observations, in both cases the large mirror mode amplitudes suggest that mirror modes escape quasilinear saturation being in a state of weak kinetic plasma turbulence.

Selected Topics on Rare Kaon Processes - in the Standard Model and Supergravity -

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Rare kaon processes appear to be particularly suitable to study the extensions of the standard model, especially if the possibility for eventual direct evidence becomes unlikely. In this review, we discuss processes that are important as a test of either the standard model or supergravity. Moreover, some of these are important even for both the standard model and for supergravity. Particular attention is paid to the reduction of uncertainties in the calculation, especially the ones coming from the confinement effects. Recent approaches, such as chiral perturbation theory, the large $N_c$-expansion, QCD sum rules and lattice QCD, are discussed. This is found to be the best strategy in view of the fact that supersymmetric effects are rather tiny.

description: We study flavor-changing neutral current and CP violations in the minimal supersymmetric left-right model. We calculate the beyond-standard-model contributions to the neutral kaon mixing $ΔM_K$ and $ε$, and find possible to have a numerical cancelation between the contributions from the right-handed gauge boson and supersymmetric box diagram. With the cancelation, the right-handed $W$-boson mass scale can be lowered to about 2 TeV, well within the search limit of LHC.

Publisher: name: DocEnhance Consortium
Year: 2021

description: DocEnhance’s first policy brief describes the need for improving PhD candidates’ transferable skills and the lessons learned from the project so far.

Training PhD candidates in transferable skills is crucial to improve their career prospects outside academia. Adaptability, teamwork, communication, presentation, and language skills are particularly sought after by non-academic employers. Though these competences may be acquired through ‘learning-by-doing’ activities, good practice recommendations on transferable skills training include formal and non-formal training through graduate and doctoral schools.

The aim of the DocEnhance project was to enhance skills intelligence and integration into existing PhD programmes.

description: We report the discovery of two planets transiting the bright stars HD 89345 (EPIC 248777106, $V=9.376$, $K=7.721$) in K2 Campaign 14 and HD 286123 (EPIC 247098361, $V=9.822$, $K=8.434$) in K2 Campaign 13. Both stars are G-type stars, one of which is at or near the end of its main sequence lifetime, and the other that is just over halfway through its main sequence lifetime. HD 89345 hosts a warm sub-Saturn (0.66 $R_J$, 0.11 $M_J$, $T_\mathrm{eq}=1100$ K) in an 11.81-day orbit. The planet is similar in size to WASP-107b, which falls in the transition region between ice giants and gas giants. HD 286123 hosts a Jupiter-sized, low-mass planet (1.06 $R_J$, 0.39 $M_J$, $T_\mathrm{eq}=1000$ K) in an 11.17-day, mildly eccentric orbit, with $e=0.255\pm0.035$. Given that they orbit relatively evolved main-sequence stars and have orbital periods longer than 10 days, these planets are interesting candidates for studies of gas planet evolution, migration, and (potentially) re-inflation. Both planets have spent their entire lifetimes near the proposed stellar irradiation threshold at which giant planets become inflated, and neither shows any sign of radius inflation. They probe the regime where inflation begins to become noticeable and are valuable in constraining planet inflation models. In addition, the brightness of the host stars, combined with large atmospheric scale heights of the planets, makes these two systems favorable targets for transit spectroscopy to study their atmospheres and perhaps provide insight into the physical mechanisms that lead to inflated hot Jupiters.

description: We construct a five dimensional exact solution of the orthogonal black di-ring which has two black rings whose $S^1$-rotating planes are orthogonal. This solution has four free parameters which represent radii of and speeds of $S^1$-rotation of the black rings. We use the inverse scattering method. This method needs the seed metric. We also present a systematic method how to construct a seed metric. Using this method, we can probably construct other solutions having many black rings on the two orthogonal planes with or without a black hole at the center.

description: We elucidate the mechanism for instability of topological Thouless pumping in strongly interacting systems from a viewpoint of symmetry-protected topological phases. If the protecting symmetries of the underlying topological phases change between noninteracting fermions and a bosonic system in the strong coupling limit, the symmetry protection argument enforces a gap closing and thereby predicts a breakdown of the topological pumping. We also demonstrate that, even in the weakly interacting regime where the bulk topological pumping is still robust, the interaction effects manifest themselves in the edge density profiles, leading to a unique feature of the pumping in open boundary conditions. Furthermore, an extension of the above results indicates that an analog of an interaction-induced phase of Weyl semimetals can be realized in the setup of the topological pumping. Our results provide a systematic understanding for the stability of topological pumping against strong interactions, to which the conventional perturbative argument cannot be applied.

description: Dilogarithm identities for the central charges and conformal dimensions exist for at least large classes of rational conformally invariant quantum field theories in two dimensions. In many cases, proofs are not yet known but the numerical and structural evidence is convincing. In particular, close relations exist to fusion rules and partition identities. We describe some examples and ideas, and present some conjectures useful for the classification of conformal theories. The mathematical structures seem to be dual to Thurston's program for the classification of 3-manifolds.

description: The utilisation of waste heat in local district heating networks is influenced by various factors. With the Heat Merit Order Tool and experience in stakeholder moderation, the potential can be assessed, and the integration process can be supported.

Waste heat is generated in many sectors of the manufacturing industry. Internal waste heat utilisation has become an established measure, driven by audits and economic interests. Once internal utilisation potentials are exhausted, the feasibility of external waste heat utilisation should be examined—whether as process heat in another facility, as heating energy for nearby buildings, or as heat for a local district heating network.
A Call for Clarity in Reporting BLEU Scores

Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)

description: The field of machine translation faces an under-recognized problem because of inconsistency in the reporting of scores from its dominant metric. Although people refer to "the" BLEU score, BLEU is in fact a parameterized metric whose values can vary wildly with changes to these parameters. These parameters are often not reported or are hard to find, and consequently, BLEU scores between papers cannot be directly compared. I quantify this variation, finding differences as high as 1.8 between commonly used configurations. The main culprit is different tokenization and normalization schemes applied to the reference. Pointing to the success of the parsing community, I suggest machine translation researchers settle upon the BLEU scheme used by the annual Conference on Machine Translation (WMT), which does not allow for user-supplied reference processing, and provide a new tool, SacreBLEU, to facilitate this.

description: We compare the Federal Reserve’s asset purchase programs with those implemented by the Bank of England and the Swedish Riksbank, and the Swiss National Bank’s reserve expansion program. We decompose government bond yields into (i) an expectations component, (ii) a global term premium and (iii) a country-specific term premium to analyze two-day changes in 10-year yields around announcement dates. We find that, in contrast to the Federal Reserve’s asset purchases, the programs implemented in these smaller economies have not been able to affect the global term premium and, consequently, their effectiveness in lowering long-term yields has been limited.
description: Nous comparons les programmes d’achat d’actifs de la Réserve fédérale avec ceux mis en oeuvre par la Banque d’Angleterre et la Banque de Suède, et avec le programme d’expansion monétaire de la Banque nationale suisse. Nous décomposons les rendements des obligations d’État en i) une composante des anticipations, ii) une prime de terme mondiale et iii) une prime de terme propre au pays pour analyser l’évolution sur deux jours du rendement des obligations à dix ans aux alentours des dates d’annonce. Nous constatons que, contrairement aux achats d’actifs effectués par la Réserve fédérale, les programmes mis en oeuvre dans ces économies plus petites ne sont pas parvenus à influer sur la prime de terme mondiale et, par conséquent, leur efficacité pour réduire les rendements à long terme a été limitée.

Phys. 47 033514 (2006)), we found a large variety of line-soliton solutions of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili II (KPII) equation. The line-soliton solutions are solitary waves which decay exponentially in $(x,y)$-plane except along certain rays. In this paper, we show that those solutions are classified by asymptotic information of the solution as $|y| \to \infty$. Our study then unravels some interesting relations between the line-soliton classification scheme and classical results in the theory of permutations.

Neutrino Sector with Majorana Mass Terms and Friedberg-Lee Symmetry

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We examine a recently proposed symmetry/condition by Friedberg and Lee in the framework where three right-handed neutrinos are added to the spectrum of the three-family Minimal Standard Model. It is found that the right-handed neutrinos are very special, with respect to this symmetry. In the symmetry limit the neutrinos are massless and that may be a hint about why they are light. Imposed as a condition and not as a full symmetry, we find that one of the three right-handed neutrinos simply decouples (has only gravitational interactions) and that there is a massless interacting neutrino. The possible relation of the model to the see-saw mechanism is briefly discussed.

Year: 1992
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We consider vortex dynamics in self-dual Chern-Simons Higgs systems. We show that the naive Aharanov-Bohm phase is the inverse of the statistical phase expected from the vortex spin, and that the self-dual configurations of vortices are degenerate in energy but not in angular momentum. We also use the path integral formalism to derive the dual formulation of Chern-Simons Higgs systems in which vortices appear as charged particles. We argue that besides the electromagnetic interaction, there is an additional interaction between vortices, the so-called Magnus force, and that these forces can be put together into a single `dual electromagnetic' interaction. This dual electromagnetic interaction leads to the right Aharanov-Bohm phase. We also derive and study the effective action for slowly moving vortices, which contains terms both linear and quadratic in the vortex velocity.

description: The biostratigraphic correlation of Late Miocene deposits in the Paratethys region is challenging due to varying biodynamic conditions. In Eastern Georgia, Sarmatian deposits, known for their diverse fossil groups, particularly mollusks and foraminifera, are extensively studied. Recent research focuses on foraminifera, providing new data on their vertical distribution and aiding in the correlation of Sarmatian deposits.The study involves 12 outcrops, six along rivers and six from oil wells, identifying five characteristic complexes based on foraminiferal assemblages. Early Sarmatian deposits, divided into lower (Varidentella reussi beds) and upper (Elphidium aculeatum beds), feature diverse foraminiferal species depending on the depositional environment.Middle Sarmatian deposits, consisting of clays and sandstones, are categorized into three parts: Affinetrina voloshinovae beds, Porosononion aragviensis beds, and Porosononion hyalinum beds, each characterized by distinct foraminiferal assemblages and increased species diversity.The research enhances understanding of the palaeogeographic evolution and biostratigraphic correlations within the Sarmatian deposits of Eastern Georgia.

description: This paper studies the dynamics of a network-based SIRS epidemic model with vaccination and a nonmonotone incidence rate. This type of nonlinear incidence can be used to describe the psychological or inhibitory effect from the behavioral change of the susceptible individuals when the number of infective individuals on heterogeneous networks is getting larger. Using the analytical method, epidemic threshold $R_0$ is obtained. When $R_0$ is less than one, we prove the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable and the disease dies out, while $R_0$ is greater than one, there exists a unique endemic equilibrium. By constructing a suitable Lyapunov function, we also prove the endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if the inhibitory factor $α$ is sufficiently large. Numerical experiments are also given to support the theoretical results. It is shown both theoretically and numerically a larger $α$ can accelerate the extinction of the disease and reduce the level of disease.

Subjects: History

description: The discipline of studying, researching, and interpreting history is very important, not only in understanding events of the past, but in explaining or better comprehending present conditions and phenomena, and to predict the future. A careful examination of the experiences of slave children in the U.S. is necessary to give us insight into their development. With this knowledge, we can better understand and foreshadow the experiences of adult slaves and how they struggled and coped with their bondage on a daily basis. Surveying the experiences of slave children is necessary and important in understanding the whole slave experience of African-Americans in the U.S.

Network analysis

description: Comorbidity is pervasive across psychopathological symptoms, diagnoses, and domains. Network analysis is a method for investigating symptom-level associations that underlie comorbidity, particularly through bridge symptoms connecting diagnostic syndromes. We applied network analyses of comorbidity to data from a population-based sample of adolescents (n = 849). We implemented a method for assessing nonparametric moderation of psychopathology networks to evaluate differences in network structure across levels of intelligence and emotional control. Symptoms generally clustered by clinical diagnoses, but specific between-cluster bridge connections emerged. Internalizing symptoms demonstrated unique connections with aggression symptoms of interpersonal irritability, whereas externalizing symptoms showed more diffuse interconnections. Aggression symptoms identified as bridge nodes in the cross-sectional network were enriched for longitudinal associations with internalizing symptoms. Cross-domain connections did not significantly vary across intelligence but were weaker at lower emotional control. Our findings highlight transdiagnostic symptom relationships that may underlie co-occurrence of clinical diagnoses or higher-order factors of psychopathology

A DEFICIENCY IN CHILDREN

description: ABSTRACT

Background: Somalia is a developing country with a population of 14 million people (PGR, 2017). One of the most important nutritional problems in Somalia is micronutrient Malnutrition exemplified by deficiencies of vitamin A, iron and iodine (Somalia micronutrient survey, 2009). 3 million children suffer clinical Vitamin A deficiency (exhibiting the signs and symptoms of eye Damage and exophthalmia) (Blomhoff, 2001). It is a major health problem in the less developed Countries (Persson et al, 1998).

description: We study quantum noise in a nonequilibrium, periodically driven, open system attached to static leads. Using a Floquet Green's function formalism we show, both analytically and numerically, that local voltage noise spectra can detect the rich structure of Floquet topological phases unambiguously. Remarkably, both regular and anomalous Floquet topological bound states can be detected, and distinguished, via peak structures of noise spectra at the edge around zero-, half-, and full-drive-frequency. We also show that the topological features of local noise are robust against moderate disorder. Thus, local noise measurements are sensitive detectors of Floquet topological phases.

description: This paper provides a global picture about the deployment of networked processing services for genomic data sets. Many current research make an extensive use genomic data, which are massive and rapidly increasing over time. They are typically stored in remote databases, accessible by using Internet. For this reason, a significant issue for effectively handling genomic data through data networks consists of the available network services. A first contribution of this paper consists of identifying the still unexploited features of genomic data that could allow optimizing their networked management. The second and main contribution of this survey consists of a methodological classification of computing and networking alternatives which can be used to offer what we call the Genomic-as-a-Service (GaaS) paradigm. In more detail, we analyze the main genomic processing applications, and classify not only the main computing alternatives to run genomics workflows in either a local machine or a distributed cloud environment, but also the main software technologies available to develop genomic processing services. Since an analysis encompassing only the computing aspects would provide only a partial view of the issues for deploying GaaS system, we present also the main networking technologies that are available to efficiently support a GaaS solution. We first focus on existing service platforms, and analyze them in terms of service features, such as scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. Then, we present a taxonomy for both wide area and datacenter network technologies that may fit the GaaS requirements. It emerges that virtualization, both in computing and networking, is the key for a successful large-scale exploitation of genomic data, by pushing ahead the adoption of the GaaS paradigm. Finally, the paper illustrates a short and long-term vision on future research challenges in the field.

description: We present a new class of solutions for static spherically symmetric wormhole spacetimes in conformal gravity and outline a detailed method for their construction. As an explicit example, we construct a class of traversable and non-traversable wormholes that are locally conformal to Schwarzschild-(anti) de Sitter spacetimes. These wormhole spacetimes are exact vacuum solutions in, but not being limited to, Weyl gravity and conformal scalar-tensor theories. Importantly, the method implies that every conformal theory of gravity with static spherically symmetric solutions will trivially contain wormholes without the need for exotic matter. Applying those results on gravitational theories that possess conformal symmetry in the ultraviolet regime, the central singularities of black holes can be replaced with wormhole throats. We speculate on possible phenomenological consequences. We also discuss the inclusion of matter fields and give explicit examples of charged wormholes in Weyl gravity and conformal scalar-tensor gravity.

title: Monetary Policy Implementation in a Negative Rate Environment
Creators: name: Boutros, Michael
name: Witmer, Jonathan
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2017

description: Monetary policy implementation could, in theory, be constrained by deeply negative rates since overnight market participants may have an incentive to invest in cash rather than lend to other participants. To understand the functioning of overnight markets in such an environment, we add the option to exchange central bank reserves for cash to the standard workhorse model of monetary policy implementation (Poole 1968). Importantly, we show that monetary policy is not constrained when just the deposit rate is below the yield on cash. However, it could be constrained when the target overnight rate is below the yield on cash. At this point, the overnight rate equals the yield on cash instead of the target rate. Modifications to the implementation framework, such as a tiered remuneration of central bank deposits contingent on cash withdrawals, can work to restore the implementation of monetary policy such that the overnight rate equals the target rate.
description: Des taux d’intérêt fortement négatifs pourraient, en théorie, faire peser une contrainte sur la mise en oeuvre de la politique monétaire, puisque les participants aux marchés du financement à un jour pourraient dans ce cas avoir avantage à transformer leurs fonds en espèces plutôt qu’à les prêter aux autres participants. Pour appréhender le fonctionnement des marchés du financement à un jour dans ce contexte, nous intégrons la possibilité d’échanger des réserves à la banque centrale contre des espèces dans le principal modèle de mise en oeuvre de la politique monétaire (Poole, 1968). Plus particulièrement, nous montrons qu’il ne suffit pas que le taux de rémunération des dépôts se situe en deçà du rendement obtenu par la détention d’espèces pour que s’exerce une contrainte sur la politique monétaire. La politique monétaire peut en revanche être limitée dans son action lorsque le taux cible du financement à un jour est inférieur au rendement dégagé par les espèces. Le taux du financement sur le marché à un jour est alors égal au rendement des espèces et non plus au taux cible. Des modifications apportées au cadre de conduite de la politique monétaire, telle une rémunération par segment des dépôts à la banque centrale qui serait fonction des retraits d’espèces effectués, peuvent aider à rétablir l’égalité entre le taux sur le marché à un jour et le taux cible.

description: We consider a problem of recovering a high-dimensional vector $μ$ observed in white noise, where the unknown vector $μ$ is assumed to be sparse. The objective of the paper is to develop a Bayesian formalism which gives rise to a family of $l_0$-type penalties. The penalties are associated with various choices of the prior distributions $π_n(\cdot)$ on the number of nonzero entries of $μ$ and, hence, are easy to interpret. The resulting Bayesian estimators lead to a general thresholding rule which accommodates many of the known thresholding and model selection procedures as particular cases corresponding to specific choices of $π_n(\cdot)$. Furthermore, they achieve optimality in a rather general setting under very mild conditions on the prior. We also specify the class of priors $π_n(\cdot)$ for which the resulting estimator is adaptively optimal (in the minimax sense) for a wide range of sparse sequences and consider several examples of such priors.

description: Geometric phases are noise-resilient, and thus provide a robust way towards high fidelity quantum manipulation. Here we experimentally demonstrate arbitrary non-adiabatic holonomic single-qubit quantum gates for both a superconducting transmon qubit and a microwave cavity in a single-loop way. In both cases, an auxiliary state is utilized, and two resonant microwave drives are simultaneously applied with well-controlled but varying amplitudes and phases for the arbitrariness of the gate. The resulting gates on the transmon qubit achieve a fidelity of 0.996 characterized by randomized benchmarking and the ones on the cavity show an averaged fidelity of 0.978 based on a full quantum process tomography. In principle, a nontrivial two-qubit holonomic gate between the qubit and the cavity can also be realized based on our presented experimental scheme. Our experiment thus paves the way towards practical non-adiabatic holonomic quantum manipulation with both qubits and cavities in a superconducting circuit.

Nonkinematic solar dynamo models with double-cell meridional circulation

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Employing the standard solar interior model as input we construct a dynamically-consistent nonlinear dynamo model that takes into account the detailed description of the Λ- effect, turbulent pumping, magnetic helicity balance, and magnetic feedback on the differential rotation and meridional circulation. The background mean-field hydrodynamic model of the solar convection zone accounts the solar-like angular velocity profile and the double-cell meridional circulation. We investigate an impact of the nonlinear magnetic field generation effects on the long-term variability and properties of the magnetic cycle. The nonlinear dynamo solutions are studied in the wide interval of the αeffect parameter from a slightly subcritical to supercritical values. It is found that the magnetic cycle period decreases with the increasing cycle's magnitude. The periodic long-term variations of the magnetic cycle are excited in case of the overcritical αeffect. These variations result from the hemispheric magnetic helicity exchange. It depends on the magnetic diffusivity parameter and the magnetic helicity production rate. The large-scale magnetic activity modifies the distribution of the differential rotation and meridional circulation inside convection zone. It is found that the magnetic feedback on the global flow affects the properties of the long-term magnetic cycles. We confront our findings with solar and stellar magnetic activity observations.

description: A master equation ( $n$ dimensional non--Abelian current conservation law with mutually commuting current components ) is introduced for multi-dimensional non-linear field theories. It is shown that the master equation provides a systematic way to understand 2-d integrable non-linear equations as well as 4-d self-dual equations and, more importantly, their generalizations to higher dimensions.

description: We study a Yang-Baxter integrable quantum spin-1/2 chain with random interactions. The Hamiltonian is local and involves two and three-spin interactions with random parameters. We show that the energy eigenstates of the model are never localized and in fact exhibit perfect energy and spin transport at both zero and infinite temperatures. By considering the vicinity of a free fermion point in the model we demonstrate that this behavior persists under deformations that break integrability but preserve the free fermion nature of the Hamiltonian. In this case the ballistic behavior can be understood as arising from the correlated nature of the disorder in the model. We conjecture that the model belongs to a broad class of models avoiding localization in 1D.

And Tomorrow, I’m Somewhere Else: Destabilization and Dispossession in the Vancouvers of Lisa Robertson and Mercedes Eng
Creators: name: Fitzpatrick, Ryan
Publisher: name: Canadian Literature
Year: 2019

description: In this article, I read the poetry of Lisa Robertson and Mercedes Eng, both of whom stage, confront, and critique the capitalist and colonial processes that stabilize and destabilize the material relations that compose Vancouver in the 21st century. As processes, stabilization and destabilization involve both the ways a space is subject to change and the ways that individual actors can affect those changes. Both Robertson and Eng respond to a city that is repeatedly hailed both as one of the world’s most livable cities and as one of the most unaffordable – a city of condos and cranes, scaffolds and tent encampments. When we read Robertson’s and Eng’s texts together, a potent tension emerges between the theoretical possibilities and material realities of instability – a tension that can help us think through the potentials of poetry to transform spaces and spatial relations.
