Uphill All the Way: The Fortunes of Progressivism, 1919-1929

description: With very few exceptions, the conventional narrative of American history dates the end of the Progressive Era to the postwar turmoil of 1919 and 1920, culminating with the election of Warren G. Harding and a mandate for Normalcy. And yet, as this dissertation explores, progressives, while knocked back on their heels by these experiences, nonetheless continued to fight for change even during the unfavorable political climate of the Twenties. The Era of Normalcy itself was a much more chaotic and contested political period - marked by strikes, race riots, agrarian unrest, cultural conflict, government scandals, and economic depression - than the popular imagination often recalls. While examining the trajectory of progressives during the Harding and Coolidge years, this study also inquires into how civic progressivism - a philosophy rooted in preserving the public interest and producing change through elevated citizenship and educated public opinion - was tempered and transformed by the events of the post-war period and the New Era. With an eye to the many fruitful and flourishing fields that have come to enhance the study of political ideology in recent decades, this dissertation revisits the question of progressive persistence, and examines the rhetorical and ideological transformations it was forced to make to remain relevant in an age of consumerism, technological change, and cultural conflict. In so doing, this study aims to reevaluate progressivism's contributions to the New Era and help to define the ideological transformations that occurred between early twentieth century reform and the liberalism of the New Deal.

description: In many applications, monitoring area under the ROC curve (AUC) in a sliding window over a data stream is a natural way of detecting changes in the system. The drawback is that computing AUC in a sliding window is expensive, especially if the window size is large and the data flow is significant. In this paper we propose a scheme for maintaining an approximate AUC in a sliding window of length $k$. More specifically, we propose an algorithm that, given $ε$, estimates AUC within $ε/ 2$, and can maintain this estimate in $O((\log k) / ε)$ time, per update, as the window slides. This provides a speed-up over the exact computation of AUC, which requires $O(k)$ time, per update. The speed-up becomes more significant as the size of the window increases. Our estimate is based on grouping the data points together, and using these groups to calculate AUC. The grouping is designed carefully such that ($i$) the groups are small enough, so that the error stays small, ($ii$) the number of groups is small, so that enumerating them is not expensive, and ($iii$) the definition is flexible enough so that we can maintain the groups efficiently. Our experimental evaluation demonstrates that the average approximation error in practice is much smaller than the approximation guarantee $ε/ 2$, and that we can achieve significant speed-ups with only a modest sacrifice in accuracy.

description: We present an empirical stellar spectra library created using spectra from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) DR5. This library represents a uniform data set ranging from 3750 through 8500K in effective temperature (T_eff), from -2.5 through +1.0 dex in metallicity ([Fe/H]), and from 0 to 5.0 dex in gravity (log g). The spectra in the library have resolution R~1800, with well-calibrated fluxes and rest-framed wavelengths. Using a large number of red stars observed by LAMOST, we generated denser K type templates to fill in data missing from current empirical spectral libraries, particularly the late K type. For K giants, we calibrated the spectroscopic surface gravities against the asteroseismic surface gravities. To verify the reliability of the parameters labeled for this library, we performed an internal cross-validation by using a chi^2 minimization method to interpolate parameters of each individual spectrum using the remaining spectra in the library. We obtained precisions of 41 K, 0.11 dex, and 0.05 dex for T_eff, log g, and [Fe/H], respectively, which means the templates are labeled with correct stellar parameters. Through external comparisons, we confirmed that measurements of the stellar parameters through this library can achieve accuracies of approximately 125K in T_eff, 0.1 dex in [Fe/H] and 0.20 dex in log g without systematic offset. This empirical library is useful for stellar parameter measurements because it has large parameter coverage and full wavelength coverage from 3800 to 8900A.

description: Black holes whose near-horizon geometries are locally, but not necessarily globally, AdS$_3$ (three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space) are considered. Using the fact that quantum gravity on AdS$_3$ is a conformal field theory, we microscopically compute the black hole entropy from the asymptotic growth of states. Precise numerical agreement with the Bekenstein-Hawking area formula for the entropy is found. The result pertains to any consistent quantum theory of gravity, and does not use string theory or supersymmetry.

description: A wireless power transfer experiment suitable for senior physics undergraduates that operates between 3 and 4 MHz is described and demonstrated in detail. The apparatus consists of a pair of identical resonant coils that can be moved relative to one another. A signal generator circuit is inductively coupled to the transmitting coil using a single loop of wire. Likewise, a single loop of wire couples the receiving coil to a load impedance. A matching circuit was used to tune the impedance of the system of coupled resonators to match the 50-$\ohm$ output impedance of the signal generator. A low-cost vector network analyzer was used to characterize the system performance as the distance between the pair of coils was changed. When the distance between the transmitting and receiving coils was small, a double resonance emerged. The frequency difference between the pair resonances was inversely proportional to the distance between the coils. After the system was fully characterized, it was operated with up to 20 W of incident power. Our measurements revealed that, at weak coupling, the fraction of the incident power lost to radiation increases linearly with the distance between the coils. Finally, we were able to transmit enough power to dimly light a 60-W incandescent light bulb.

description: Predictive models for urban building energy use have been the focus of much research in recent years, especially using data-driven techniques. However, these models still need to address recognized challenges, such as employing sufficient energy use data in spatial and temporal scales and accounting for interbuilding effects. In this regard, several typical data-driven predictive models for urban building energy use were proposed in this capstone to reduce the large data requirements and improve the prediction accuracy. Using a dataset of four years of electricity consumption by public buildings in Jianhu City, a county-level city in Jiangsu Province, China, and data on the corresponding building morphological parameters, this project compares the predictive performance of these models under different algorithms. The results suggest that a building network based on building morphological similarity can improve the overall performance of energy consumption prediction models for individual buildings in an urban context. This building network can also obtain relatively reliable energy consumption prediction results in the absence of historical energy consumption data of the target building. The project also reveals that the data-driven models can accurately predict total building consumption in a region when historical energy consumption of some buildings is not available. This study provides more comprehensive references and improved accuracy and robustness of urban building energy demand prediction, resulting in potential solutions reduced data requirements of urban energy models.

description: We investigate determining the exact bounds of the frequencies of conjunctions based on frequent sets. Our scenario is an important special case of some general probabilistic logic problems that are known to be intractable. We show that despite the limitations our problems are also intractable, namely, we show that checking whether the maximal consistent frequency of a query is larger than a given threshold is NP-complete and that evaluating the Maximum Entropy estimate of a query is PP-hard. We also prove that checking consistency is NP-complete.

Topological Description of the Solidification of Undercooled Fluids and the Temperature Dependence of the Thermal Conductivity of Crystalline and Glassy Solids Above Approximately 50 K

description: By the adoption of a quaternion orientational order parameter to describe solidification, the topological origins of the thermal transport properties of crystalline and non-crystalline solid states are considered herein. Global orientational order, achieved by spontaneous symmetry breaking, is prevented at finite temperatures for systems that exist in restricted dimensions (Mermin-Wagner theorem). Just as complex ordered systems exist in restricted dimensions in 2D and 1D, owing to the dimensionality of the order parameter, quaternion ordered systems in 4D and 3D exist in restricted dimensions. Just below the melting temperature, misorientational fluctuations in the form of spontaneously generated topological defects prevent the development of the solid state. Such solidifying systems are well-described using O(4) quantum rotor models, and a defect-driven Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition is anticipated to separate an undercooled fluid from a crystalline solid state. In restricted dimensions, in addition to orientationally-ordered ground states, orientationally-disordered ground states may be realized by tuning a non-thermal parameter in the relevant O(n) quantum rotor model Hamiltonian; thus, glassy solid states are anticipated to exist as distinct ground states of O(4) quantum rotor models. Within this topological framework for solidification, the finite Kauzmann temperature marks a first-order transition between crystalline and glassy solid states at a "self-dual critical point" that belongs to O(4) quantum rotor models. This transition is a higher-dimensional analogue to the quantum phase transition that belongs to O(2) Josephson junction arrays (JJAs). Thermal transport properties of crystalline and glassy solid states, above approximately 50 K, are considered alongside electrical transport properties of JJAs across the superconductor-to-superinsulator transition.

Upward Mobility and Authoritarian Stability: Merit-Based Elite Recruitment in China

description: Why does merit-based elite recruitment exist under authoritarianism, notwithstanding its adverse impact on elites' private interests? In my dissertation, I develop an argument that centers on the role of upward mobility in authoritarian regime dynamics. I argue that merit-based elite recruitment provides individuals from non-elite background an opportunity to move into the ruling class by effort; it enhances their perception of upward mobility and thus reduces their discontent with the status quo. An authoritarian ruler, therefore, may deliberately adopt and institutionalize meritocracy in elite recruitment to engineer limited but sustained upward mobility, which co-opts large numbers of non-elites and helps stabilize the regime.
      Focusing on the case of China and its national civil service examination (NCSE), I draw on qualitative, quantitative, and experimental evidence to triangulate the complex dynamic between the CCP leadership, local officials, and ordinary citizens in merit-based elite recruitment. I employ two survey experiments to demonstrate that, by imposing institutional constraints on local officials, the CCP leadership can make its commitment to merit-based recruitment credible and enforceable. Analyzing data from two national representative surveys, I find that the institutionalization of NCSE forges a widespread and persistent perception of upward mobility among  citizens eligible for the exam and weakens their pressure on the regime for income redistribution; it also strengthens public support for local government and contributes to the legitimacy of the CCP regime. These findings contribute to our understanding of the effects of meritocracy under authoritarianism and highlight the importance of upward mobility in relation to regime resilience.

description: Peramelidae Gray, 1825   CONTENTS: Echymipera, Isoodon, Microperoryctes, Perameles (fig. 39), Peroryctes, and Rhynchomeles.
STEM AGE: 16.5 Mya (95% HPD: 12.4–20.6 Mya).
CROWN AGE: 8.8 Mya (95% HPD: 6.3–12.3 Mya).
UNAMBIGUOUS CRANIODENTAL SYNAPOMORPHIES: Orbitosphenoid laterally inapparent or absent (char. 15: 0→1; ci = 1.000), and dP3 very small, nonoccluding, and structurally simplified, or absent (char. 120: 1→2; ci = 0.118).
 COMMENTS: Our dated Bayesian total-evidence analysis recovers monophyly of Peramelidae sensu Van Dyck and Strahan, 2008 (= Echymiperinae + Peramelinae + Peroryctinae), to the exclusion of Thylacomyidae and Chaeropodidae (fig. 33), as do our undated Bayesian total-evidence analysis (fig. 32) and all our molecular analyses (figs. 27–29). As already discussed, a similar topology has been recovered in most recent molecular and total-evidence analyses (Westerman et al., 2012; Kear et al., 2016; Travouillon and Phillips, 2018). Of the two craniodental features that optimize as unambiguous synapomorphies of Peramelidae, a laterally inapparent or absent orbitosphenoid is unique to this clade and shows no homoplasy among our terminals, whereas presence of a structurally simplified dP3 serves to distinguish peramelids from Macrotis and Chaeropus, in which dP3 is better developed. However, the morphology of dP 3 in † Bulungu, † Galadi and † Yarala, which fall outside the crown clade (Perameloidea) in our analyses, is currently unknown.
 † Crash bandicoot from the middle Miocene AL90 site (which has been radiometrically dated as ~14.8 Mya; Woodhead et al., 2014) at Riversleigh World Heritage Area was described by Travouillon et al. (2014a) as a member of the peramelid crown group. In support of this, † Crash has been recovered in a clade with Perameles and Isoodon in some recent analyses (Travouillon et al., 2014 a, 2015b: fig. 12a; Chamberlain et al., 2015), although not others (Travouillon et al., 2015b: fig. 12b; Kear et al., 2016). However, † Crash considerably predates our late Miocene estimate for the most recent common ancestor of Peramelidae. Apart from † Crash, the oldest known peramelids are probably early Pliocene taxa that have been referred to Perameles (P. † allinghamensis, P. † bowensis, and P. † wilkinsorum; Warburton and Travouillon, 2016; Travouillon et al., 2017).

description: Historical neighborhood conservation plays an important part in the inner city redevelopment in China. The purpose of this thesis is to identify and understand the complexity of stakeholders' incentives and their responsibilities in historical neighborhood conservation in Chinese urban contexts by analysis two cases in Beijing and Shanghai. The two research questions are: 1) who are the stakeholders and what are their incentives in an urban conservation project? 2) What social, political, and economic factors affect decisions to preserve neighborhoods in Chinese cities? From the analysis, political implications are drawn that: 1) The governments should encourage and solicit original residents participation on a historical neighborhood conservation project. 2) The governments should introduce the private capital into the neighborhood conservation project.

description: We study the Bloch oscillation dynamics of a spin-orbit-coupled cold atomic gas trapped inside a one-dimensioanl optical lattice. The eigenspectra of the system is identified as two interpenetrating Wannier-Stark ladder. Based on that, we carefully analyzed the Bloch oscillation dynamics and found out that intraladder coupling between neighboring rungs of Wannier-Stark ladder give rise to ordinary Bloch oscillation while interladder coupling lead to small amplitude high frequency oscillation superimposed on it. Specifically spin-orbit interaction breaks Galilean invariance, which can be reflected by out-of-phase oscillation of the two spin components in the accelerated frame. The possibility of generating spin current in this system are also explored.

description: Starting from a microscopic approach, we develop a covariant formalism to describe a set of interacting gases. For that purpose, we model the collision term entering the Boltzmann equation for a class of interactions and then integrate this equation to obtain an effective macroscopic description. This formalism will be useful to study the cosmic microwave background non-perturbatively in inhomogeneous cosmologies. It should also be useful for the study of the dynamics of the early universe and can be applied, if one considers fluids of galaxies, to the study of structure formation.

From these, we determine the static scalar polarizability for both 7P states, and the tensor polarizability for the 7P$_{3/2}$ state. The fractional uncertainty of the scalar polarizabilites is $\sim$0.18\%, while that of the tensor term is 0.66\%. These measurements provide sensitive tests of theoretical models of the Cs atom, which has played a central role in parity nonconservation measurements.

description: Family-based static analysis techniques allow to efficiently analyze the exponential variant space of a software product line (SPL). Rather than analyzing each variant completely on its own, a family-based analysis processes information shared among multiple variants only once. The analysis delegates parts of the exponential complexity to reasoning about boolean presence conditions, which control the inclusion or exclusion of code fragments in a particular variant. The feature model of the SPL, which determines the set of valid variants, must be included in the reasoning process to obtain correct results. However, typically not all parts of a feature model arerelevant for a particular condition. In this work, we propose a method to accelerate presence condition reasoning by decreasing the size of the model used for reasoning. In particular, we use the concept of feature model interfaces to decompose a feature diagram according to its hierarchical structure, and obtain an abstraction that can be selectively refined on the fly for a given condition. We formalize our approach in terms of propositional feature diagram semantics and prove its correctness. In our evaluation, we demonstrate that our approach accelerates reasoning by up to 24 percent.

description: Which gates are universal for quantum computation? Although it is well known that certain gates on two-level quantum systems (qubits), such as the controlled-not (CNOT), are universal when assisted by arbitrary one-qubit gates, it has only recently become clear precisely what class of two-qubit gates is universal in this sense. Here we present an elementary proof that any entangling two-qubit gate is universal for quantum computation, when assisted by one-qubit gates. A proof of this important result for systems of arbitrary finite dimension has been provided by J. L. and R. Brylinski [arXiv:quant-ph/0108062, 2001]; however, their proof relies upon a long argument using advanced mathematics. In contrast, our proof provides a simple constructive procedure which is close to optimal and experimentally practical [C. M. Dawson and A. Gilchrist, online implementation of the procedure described herein (2002), http://www.physics.uq.edu.au/gqc/].

description: The new Webber House development in Wesbrook Village for UBC Properties Trust consists of a six story, 4,233 m² residential building with 36 suites over two parking levels. The energy model for this building was established to explore the optimal thermostat temperature range with the ultimate goal of saving energy and achieving occupants’ thermal comfort. Besides, the energy consumption end use was estimated. The energy model was developed using Sketch up, Open studio and energy plus with ASHRAE 90.1-2010 Energy Standard. Based on the results of the energy model, Scenario A not only can achieve highly thermal comfort for occupants, but also can provide up to 51% energy saving compared with Scenario B (upper bond). Future work needs to be focused on the energy model adjustment. Some factors such as infiltration rate, lighting power density would have some impacts on heating consumption. Thus, to make the energy model more accurate, these numbers needs to be verified after operation.

description: Microbiotheria Ameghino, 1889   CONTENTS: Dromiciops (fig. 43) and † Microbiotherium.
STEM AGE: 45.6 Mya (95% HPD: 41.4–48.8 Mya).
CROWN AGE: 17.3 Mya (95% HPD: 14.0–21.8 Mya).
UNAMBIGUOUS CRANIODENTAL SYNAPOMORPHIES: Basisphenoid with a distinct sagittal keel (char. 48: 0→1; ci = 1.000); auditory bulla large, contacting rostral process of petrosal (char. 55: 1→2; ci = 0.300); caudal and rostral tympanic processes of petrosal seamlessly fused, forming a petrosal plate (char. 68: 0→2; ci = 0.154); and five upper incisors present (char. 103: 2→0; ci = 0.333).
 COMMENTS: Of the four unambiguous morphological synapomorphies supporting monophyly of Microbiotheria (equivalent to Microbiotheriidae in our analyses), two occur homoplastically in other marsupial groups and one appears questionable because it is a reversal in the number of upper incisors from three back to the ancestral metatherian complement of five. However, presence of a basiphenoid with a distinct sagittal keel is a distinctive cranial apomorphy that is apparently unique to microbiotherians (Hershkovitz, 1992a; 1999; Giannini et al., 2004; Wible et al., 2018). Although several genera of fossil microbiotherians are known from South America (Marshall, 1982; Goin and Abello, 2013; Goin et al., 2016), all except † Microbiotherium (for which cranial material, including a specimen [MACN A 8505] preserving the part of the basisphenoid sagittal keel, is known; Segall, 1969b; Marshall, 1982) are known from dental remains only.
 As already discussed (see Australidelphia above), the oldest definitive member of the order described to date is probably the woodburnodontid † Woodburnodon casei from the Cucullaea I Allomember of the La Meseta Formation, Seymour Island, off the Antarctic Penninsula. Based on current evidence, the age of † W. casei appears to be ~40 Mya (Douglas et al., 2014; Amenábar et al., 2019; Mörs et al., 2020). Most recent studies have concluded that the early or middle Palaeocene † Khasia cordillerensis is not a member of Microbiotheria (Oliveira and Goin, 2006; Goin et al., 2016; Carneiro et al., 2018; but see Muizon et al., 2018), and putative microbiotherian specimens reported from the early Eocene Las Flores Fauna (Goin, 2003; Zimicz, 2012; Woodburne et al., 2014a; Goin et al., 2016) have yet to be formally described (see Australidelphia above).

description: Aus dem Beitrag «Inhalte der Lehrpersonenbildung dürfen sich nicht allein am schulischen Lehrplan orientieren, soll die Lehrperson den Lernenden nicht stets nur die sprichwörtliche Seite im Schulbuch voraus sein. Lehrpersonen müssen flexibel über ein breites Grundlagenwissen verfügen können. Der Zuschnitt dieses grundlegenden Fachwissens (Content Knowledge) ist stets diskutabel und stellt, wie jede curriculare Entscheidung, notgedrungen einen Kompromiss dar. Auch wenn es keinen Konsens zu geben scheint, welches Wissen Lehrpersonen haben müssen , herrscht Einigkeit, dass es verschiedene, aufeinander beziehbare Wissensarten gibt, unter denen Fachwissen eine bedeutsame Stellung einnimmt . [...] Daher versucht das Integrationsmodul Analytische Chemie an der PH Schwäbisch Gmünd einer allseitig beobachtbaren, wenngleich nicht erforschten Verinselung von Grundlagenwissen entgegenzuwirken. Es führt – gleichsam spiralcurricular – wesentliche Fachwissensaspekte anwendungsorientiert zusammen, so wie Studierende es auch fordern.» → der gesamte Sammelband ist diesem Record als langzeitarchivtaugliches PDF beigefügt (s. verlinkte Dokumente)

description: We establish a connection between the Aubry-Mather theory of invariant sets of a 1D dynamical system described by a Lagrangian with potential periodic in space and time, on the one hand, and idempotent spectral theory of the Bellman operator of the corresponding optimization problem, on the other hand. This connection is applied to obtain a uniqueness result for an eigenfunction of the Bellman operator in the case of irrational rotation number.

description: At the end of the sixteenth century, London was grappling with an unprecedented environmental crisis: rapid population growth produced rampant pollution, land mismanagement, and epidemic disease; entire species of fish disappeared from the Thames; and the city’s growing demands for food and fuel depleted the nation’s natural resources. This dissertation locates innovative responses to these new environmental pressures on the early modern stage. Shakespeare and his contemporaries, I argue, shaped early attitudes and expectations about the ecology of London and its sustainability. Each chapter of “Urban Ecology” focuses on a different resource problem plaguing early modern London—food scarcity, decayed waterways, air pollution and a shortage of space to bury the dead—and shows how groups of plays addressed them using the material and imaginative resources of dramatic form. In constructing stories in which these ecological issues figure prominently, and in offering their own creative responses to these problems, early modern playwrights display a nuanced understanding of London’s environment as a co-fabrication between human and nonhuman forces, even before the terms “ecosystem” or “ecology” had emerged in scientific discourse. To make this co-fabrication visible, “Urban Ecology” reads early modern plays alongside a rich archive of archaeological evidence that re-situates the theater industry as a both a product of and active participant in the London ecosystem. I show how playing companies contributed to urban air pollution by burning noxious sea coal to produce spectacular effects that attracted paying customers; the Bankside playhouses, located on reclaimed marshland, were vulnerable to the Thames and its patterns of tidal flooding; and food sourced from both local and global supply chains was regularly sold during performances. By reconstructing this complex interplay between drama and its environment, this dissertation begins to center the early modern theater industry in the history of ecological thought.

description: Modulating electronic structure of two-dimensional (2D) materials represents an exciting avenue for tailoring their optoelectronic properties. Here, we identify a strain-induced, cooperative effect of intraband and interband excitations contributing to high harmonic generation (HHG) in prototype dichalcogenide MoS2 monolayer. We find that besides the dominant intraband contributions, interband current is also indispensable in modulating HHG. The HHG yields increase linearly with the compressive strain since flatter band dispersion and Berry curvature enhance both interband and intraband dynamics. Band structure can be retrieved with high reliability by monitoring the strain-induced evolution of HHG spectra, suggesting that strain not only provides an additional knob to control HHG in solids, but also marks a way towards a complete understanding of underlying microscopic mechanisms.

A piezo-metastructure with bistable circuit shunts for adaptive nonreciprocal wave transmission

description: In this paper, we present a piezo-metastructure shunted with bistable circuits to achieve adaptive nonreciprocal elastic wave transmission. Static properties of the bistable circuit are first investigated, followed by numerical investigation of wave transmission characteristics on the nonlinear piezo-metastructure. Both the local-resonance bandgap and the bandgap transmission phenomenon, also known as supratransmission, are explored and investigated. By introducing circuit asymmetry, the supratransmission thresholds, critical excitation amplitudes to enable bandgap transmission, are found at different levels for the different wave transmission directions and hence creating an excitation amplitude range within which nonreciprocal wave transmission can be facilitated. Effect of the asymmetry factor on nonreciprocity properties is subsequently analyzed and the trade-offs between the forward transmission amplitude and the range of excitation with nonreciprocity are identified. Additionally, it is demonstrated that wave transmission characteristics of the proposed nonlinear piezo-metastructure can be adaptively tuned by conveniently adjusting stable equilibria of the bistable circuit. Lastly, the observed wave transmission properties are further corroborated by experimental investigations. Overall, the results illustrate a novel means to manipulate unidirectional elastic wave transmission using a nonlinear piezo-metastructure.
