description: A vibrating plate is set into a chaotic state of wave turbulence by either a periodic or a random local forcing. Correlations between the forcing and the local velocity response of the plate at the forcing point are studied. Statistical models with fairly good agreement with the experiments are proposed for each forcing. Both distributions of injected power have a logarithmic cusp for zero power, while the tails are Gaussian for the periodic driving and exponential for the random one. The distributions of injected work over long time intervals are investigated in the framework of the fluctuation theorem, also known as the Gallavotti-Cohen theorem. It appears that the conclusions of the theorem are verified only for the periodic, deterministic forcing. Using independent estimates of the phase space contraction, this result is discussed in the light of available theoretical framework.
Real adjuncts in instrumental in Russian

Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2000

description: An adjunct-DP in the free instrumental case occurs in a number of surface positions where the DP is syntactically optional. does not depend on any element in the sentence, and has a number of different interpretations. We introduce Bailyn's proposal which postulates a uniform syntactic environment for all the uses of instr. This calls for a uniform semantics of these DPs which can nevertheless accomodate the different interpretations. Starting with the hypothesis of Roman Jakobson about the semantics of the instrumental case we formulate a semantic interpretation theory based on abduction. We give a uniform semantics for three different adjunct uses of instr in this framework. In the concluding part of the paper we discuss some possible alternatives and ramifications as well as questions and objections raised with respect to the treatment proposed in this paper.

description: Context: The F8 star HD 181906 (effective temperature ~6300K) was observed for 156 days by the CoRoT satellite during the first long run in the centre direction. Analysis of the data reveals a spectrum of solar-like acoustic oscillations. However, the faintness of the target (m_v=7.65) means the signal-to-noise (S/N) in the acoustic modes is quite low, and this low S/N leads to complications in the analysis. Aims: To extract global variables of the star as well as key parameters of the p modes observed in the power spectrum of the lightcurve. Methods: The power spectrum of the lightcurve, a wavelet transform and spot fitting have been used to obtain the average rotation rate of the star and its inclination angle. Then, the autocorrelation of the power spectrum and the power spectrum of the power spectrum were used to properly determine the large separation. Finally, estimations of the mode parameters have been done by maximizing the likelihood of a global fit, where several modes were fit simultaneously. Results: We have been able to infer the mean surface rotation rate of the star (~4 microHz) with indications of the presence of surface differential rotation, the large separation of the p modes (~87 microHz), and therefore also the ridges corresponding to overtones of the acoustic modes.

Kopulasätze mit den pronominalen Elementen "to/ėto" im Polnischen und Russischen

Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics

description: In this paper we investigate the structure of specificational sentences like [Raskol'nikov]NP 1 - ėto [ubìjca staruxi]NP2 'Raskolnikov - that is the murderer of the old lady' in Russian and Polish, which - depending on the type of NP1 and NP2 - correspond to English pseudo-cleft-constructions (What Raskolnikov is is the murderer of the old lady) and specificational sentences (The person I like most is my father), respectively. We propose that the Slavic constructions can be analysed similarly to their English counterparts: the first fragment contains a semantic variable, which is specified in the second fragment. We show that the pronouns "ėto" / "to" , which are obligatory in Slavic specificational sentences, have two functions. 1. the deictic function: "ėto/to" take an open proposition available in the discourse or reconstructed from it, and assign this open proposition to another proposition, which provides the value for the variable of the open proposition. 2. the operative function: "ėto/to" link two syntactically independent fragments, the first of which can be semantically interpreted as an indirect question comparable to the wh-clause in the English pseudo-clefts, and the second as an answer to this question.

Relativistic harmonic oscillator model for quark stars

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The relativistic harmonic oscillator (RHO) model of hadrons is used to study quark stars. The mass-radius relationship is obtained and compared with bag model of quark star, using Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation. In this model, the outward degenerate pressure due to discrete Landau levels and Landau degeneracy balances the inward gravitational pressure. Where as in bag model the degenerate pressure is due to the standard continuum levels which balances the combined inward pressure due to gravitation and bag pressure. So in RHO model, the confinement effect is included in the degenerate pressure. We found a qualitative similarity, but quantitative differences in mass-radius relationship of quark stars in these two models. Masses and radii are relatively larger and the central energy densities, required for stable quark stars, are lower in RHO model than that of bag model.

description: It is controversial in the literature whether the First Participle in German ('Present Participle'; henceforth: Part I) is an adjective or a verbal form. Syntactically, it occurs exclusively in adjectival positions but it does not behave like an adjective in other respects. This paper provides an analysis of Part I starting from a diachronic perspective and arriving at a synchronic interpretation of its position in the field of 'finite verb + nonfinite verb constructions' in New High German. Against such positions as Paul's (1920), which regard Part I as an adjective only, it will be argued that, for an adequate description of its structural properties, its verbal character must be taken into account both diachronically and synchronically. It will be shown that Part I fits into and completes a paradigmatic structure together with other nonfinite verbal forms.

description: TeV gravity models provide a scenario for black hole formation at energies much smaller than G_N^(-1/2) \sim 10^19 GeV. In particular, the collision of a ultrahigh energy cosmic ray with a dark matter particle in our galactic halo or with another cosmic ray could result into a black hole of mass between 10^4 and 10^11 GeV. Once produced, such object would evaporate into elementary particles via Hawking radiation. We show that the interactions among the particles exiting the black hole are not able to produce a photosphere nor a chromosphere. We then evaluate how these particles evolve using the jet-code HERWIG, and obtain a final diffuse flux of stable 4-dimensional particles peaked at 0.2 GeV. This flux consists of an approximate 43% of neutrinos, a 28% of electrons, a 16% of photons and a 13% of protons. Emission into the bulk would range from a 1.4% of the total energy for n=2 to a 16% for n=6.

description: The optical conductivity (OC) of cuprates is studied theoretically in the low density limit of the t-t'-J-Holstein model. By developing a limited phonon basis exact diagonalization (LPBED) method capable of treating the lattice of largest size 4x4 ever considered, we are able to discern fine features of the mid-infrared (MIR) part of the OC revealing three-peak structure. The two lowest peaks are observed in experiments and the highest one is tacitly resolved in moderately doped cuprates. Comparison of OC with the results of semianalytic approaches and detailed analysis of the calculated isotope effect indicate that the middle-energy MIR peak is of mostly magnetic origin while the lowest MIR band originates from the scattering of holes by phonons.

Improved subspace estimation for multivariate observations of high dimension: the deterministic signals case

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)

description: We consider the problem of subspace estimation in situations where the number of available snapshots and the observation dimension are comparable in magnitude. In this context, traditional subspace methods tend to fail because the eigenvectors of the sample correlation matrix are heavily biased with respect to the true ones. It has recently been suggested that this situation (where the sample size is small compared to the observation dimension) can be very accurately modeled by considering the asymptotic regime where the observation dimension $M$ and the number of snapshots $N$ converge to $+\infty$ at the same rate. Using large random matrix theory results, it can be shown that traditional subspace estimates are not consistent in this asymptotic regime. Furthermore, new consistent subspace estimate can be proposed, which outperform the standard subspace methods for realistic values of $M$ and $N$. The work carried out so far in this area has always been based on the assumption that the observations are random, independent and identically distributed in the time domain. The goal of this paper is to propose new consistent subspace estimators for the case where the source signals are modelled as unknown deterministic signals. In practice, this allows to use the proposed approach regardless of the statistical properties of the source signals. In order to construct the proposed estimators, new technical results concerning the almost sure location of the eigenvalues of sample covariance matrices of Information plus Noise complex Gaussian models are established. These results are believed to be of independent interest.

description: This volume comprises papers that were given at the workshop Information Structure and the Referential Status of Linguistic Expressions, which we organized during the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Sprachwissenschaft (DGfS) Conference in Leipzig in February 2001. At this workshop we discussed the connection between information structure and the referential interpretation of linguistic expressions, a topic mostly neglected in current linguistics research. One common aim of the papers is to find out to what extent the focus-background as well as the topic-comment structuring determine the referential interpretation of simple arguments like definite and indefinite NPs on the one hand and sentences on the other.

structures of depictive and resultative constructions in Chinese
Creators: name: Zhang, Niina
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: In this paper I firstly argue that secondary predicates are complement of v, and v is overtly realized by Merge or Move in secondary predication in Chinese. The former option derives the de-construction, whereas the latter option derives the V-V construction. Secondly, I argue that resultatives are hosted by complement vPs, whereas depictives are hosted by adjunct vPs. This complement-adjunct asymmetry accounts for a series of syntactic properties of secondary predication in Chinese: the position of a secondary predicate with respect to the verb of the primary predicate, the co-occurrence patterns of secondary predicates, the hierarchy of depictives, the control and ECM properties of resultative constructions, and the locality constraint on the integration of secondary predicates into the structure of primary predication. Thirdly, I argue that the surface position of de is derived by a PF operation which attaches de to the right of the leftmost verbal lexical head of the construction. Finally, I argue that in the V-V resultative construction, the assumed successive head-raising may account for the possible subject-oriented reading of the resultative predicate, and that the head raising out of the lower vP accounts for the possible non-specific reading of the subject of the resultative predicate.

On object specificity

Year: 2001

description: [W]e have demonstrated that the object specificity follows from the same principle as the subject specificity under the EMH. Furthermore, the semantic discrepancy between the realis and irrealis object shift constructions turns out to be a subcase of the more general indicative-modal asymmetry. Although our analysis presented here is nothing but conclusive, it does suggest that the EMH is a potent candidate for explaining the indicative-modal asymmetry, as well as for building a general theory of the specificity effects in question.

Nominal predication and focus anchoring
Creators: name: Tang, Sze-Wing
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: It will be shown that verbs can be missing in predicative sentences by using the data from Chinese. Copula-less sentences in Chinese are subject to 'Generalized Anchoring Principle' (GAP), which requires that every clause be anchored at the interface for LF convergence. To satisfy GAP, clauses may be either tensed or focused. It is shown that copula-less sentences in Chinese are subject to focus anchoring. It will be further argued that whether a verb is needed in predication depends on the syntax of predicate nominals.

Semantic constraints on case assignment in secondary adjectival predicates in Russian
Creators: name: Hinterholzl, Roland
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: Adjectival secondary predicates can enter into two Case frames in Russian, the agreeing form and the Instrumental. The paper argues that these Case frames go together with two syntactic positions in the clause which are correlated with two different interpretations, the true depictive and the temporally restricted reading, respectively. The availability of the two readings depends on the houndedness of the secondary predicate. Only bounded predicates can enter into both Case frames and only partially non-bounded predicates can appear in the Instrumental. The paper therefore argues that the pertinent two-way SL/IL-contrast is to he replaced by a three-way distinction in terms of boundedness. The paper outlines the syntax and semantics of the true depictive and the temporally restricted interpretation and discusses how adjectival secondary predicates whose salient properties involve a cotemporary interpretation with the matrix predicate and a control relation of an individual argument, differ from temporal adjuncts as well as from non-finite clauses.

description: Unlike the classical polynomial case there has not been invented up to very recently a tool similar to the Bernstein-Bezier representation which would allow us to control the behavior of the exponential polynomials. The exponential analog to the classical Bernstein polynomials has been introduced in a recent authors' paper which appeared in Constructive Approximations, and this analog retains all basic properties of the classical Bernstein polynomials. The main purpose of the present paper is to contribute in this direction, by proving some important properties of the "Bernstein exponential operator" which has been introduced. We also fix our attention upon some special type of exponential polynomials which are particularly important for the further development of theory of representation of Multivariate data.

Presenting and predicating lower events
Creators: name: Brandt, Patrick
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2001

description: The effects of different forms of predication have been insightfully (and almost exclusively) studied for 'simple' cases of predication, of which the 'presentational sentence' is maybe the paradigm instantiation. It is the aim of this paper to show that thc same kind of effects as well as in fact the same kind of structures are present at embedded levels in thematically and otherwise more complex structures. Beyond presentational sentences, 'unaccusative' experiencing constructions involving a dative subject, 'double object constructions' and - to a lesser extent - spraylload constructions are discussed. For all of these, it is argued that they comprise a predication encoding the ascription of a transient temporal property to a location. On this basis, a proposal is made as to how the scope asymmetry between the two arguments involved in the colistructions can be explained. Furthermore, a proposal is made as to how what has been called 'argument shift' is motivated.

Adélie Land Bottom Water
Creators: name: Williams, Guy
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023
Subjects: Physical oceanography

description: The general circulation and time evolution of wintertime water masses in the Adélie Depression is described from hydrographic observations taken during the Mertz Polynya Experiment in July-September 1999. Sea-ice growth was estimated and found to vary from 4.8±1.7,4.1± 1.5,8.4±1.7 cm day−1 respectively over a three week period. The average growth rate of sea-ice in the Mertz Glacier polynya is 5.8 cm day−1. Near the Mertz Glacier polynya the ocean heat flux is between 15±6 and 43±11 W m−2, with an average of 30 W m−2 and the latent heat budget is between 125±45 to 254±52 W m−2, with an average of 174 W m−2. These estimates agree with ship-based measurements of sea-ice observed during the experiment. It is concluded that during winter the Mertz polynya is primarily a latent heat polynya. The seasonal evolution of dense shelf waters in the Adélie Depression is described from time series of salinity and temperature from moored hydrographic instruments. Velocity measurements in the Adélie Sill define the total production of dense shelf waters from the Adélie Depression and the annual export of shelf water with sufficient density to become Adélie Land Bottom Water (ALBW), i.e., greater than sq = 27.85 kg m−3, is estimated to be 0.3 ± 0.2 Sv. The downslope mixing of cold, dense shelf waters that escapes the Adélie Depression through the Adélie Sill is investigated using a kinematic gravity current model. ADCP currents on the continental slope at 1150m show northward and bottom-intensified flow which increases during the winter months. Further downslope at 3200m, cold and relatively fresh ALBW is detected in the deepest microcat record. The entrainment of ambient slope waters into a downslope gravity current of cold dense shelf water significantly increases the volume of the final water mass by 200-300%. The total production rate of ALBW into the abyssal layer (> 3500 m) during 1998 to 1999 is estimated to be 1.15 ± 0.5 Sv. This represents between 6-23% of the 8-12 Sv of total Antarctic Bottom Water production reported in the literature and is broadly in agreement with the 25% volume fraction of ALBW suggested by Rintoul (1998). The overall production of ALBW from the Adélie Depression is sensitive to small-scale changes to the air/sea/ice interaction within the depression, and large-scale changes to the supply of circumpolar deep waters across the slope front. It is likely that the unique combination of factors present in the Adélie Depression such as sufficient residence volume (depression), sill depth, intense sea-ice production (formation and removal), the blocking effect of the Mertz Glacier Tongue and export pathway through the Adélie Sill make this the largest source of ALBW to the Australian-Antarctic Basin.

description: For selfadjoint extensions tilde-A of a symmetric densely defined positive operator A_min, the lower boundedness problem is the question of whether tilde-A is lower bounded {\it if and only if} an associated operator T in abstract boundary spaces is lower bounded. It holds when the Friedrichs extension A_gamma has compact inverse (Grubb 1974, also Gorbachuk-Mikhailets 1976); this applies to elliptic operators A on bounded domains. For exterior domains, A_gamma ^{-1} is not compact, and whereas the lower bounds satisfy m(T)\ge m(tilde-A), the implication of lower boundedness from T to tilde-A has only been known when m(T)>-m(A_gamma). We now show it for general T. The operator A_a corresponding to T=aI, generalizing the Krein-von Neumann extension A_0, appears here; its possible lower boundedness for all real a is decisive. We study this Krein-like extension, showing for bounded domains that the discrete eigenvalues satisfy N_+(t;A_a)=c_At^{n/2m}+O(t^{(n-1+varepsilon)/2m}) for t\to\infty .

description: An analysis is presented of the phase transition of the quantum Ising model with transverse field on the d-dimensional hypercubic lattice. It is shown that there is a unique sharp transition. The value of the critical point is calculated rigorously in one dimension. The first step is to express the quantum Ising model in terms of a (continuous) classical Ising model in d+1 dimensions. A so-called `random-parity' representation is developed for the latter model, similar to the random-current representation for the classical Ising model on a discrete lattice. Certain differential inequalities are proved. Integration of these inequalities yields the sharpness of the phase transition, and also a number of other facts concerning the critical and near-critical behaviour of the model under study.

description: This paper explores the syntax of main clause predicatives from the perspective of trying to account for an asymmetry in copular constructions in certain languages. One of the languages in which we find such an asymmetry is child English (around age 2). Specifically, new results show that children acquiring English tend to use an overt (and inflected) copula in individual-level predicatives, but they tend to omit the copula in stage-level predicatives. The analysis adopted to account for this pattern draws on evidence from adult English, Russian, Spanish and Portuguese that stage-level predicates are Aspectual (they contain AspP) while individual-level predicates are not (they involve only a lexical Small Clause predicate). Children's omission of the copula in structures with AspP is linked to the fact that at this stage of development, children fail to require finiteness in main clauses. In particular, Asp0 is temporally anchored in child English, thereby obviating the need for a finite (temporally anchored) Infl, i.e. an inflected copula.

description: Aluminum extrusion die manufacturing is a critical task for productive improvement and increasing potential of competition in aluminum extrusion industry. It causes to meet the efficiency not only consistent quality but also time and production cost reduction. Die manufacturing consists first of die design and process planning in order to make a die for extruding the customer's requirement products. The efficiency of die design and process planning are based on the knowledge and experience of die design and die manufacturer experts. This knowledge has been formulated into a computer system called the knowledge-based system. It can be reused to support a new die design and process planning. Such knowledge can be extracted directly from die geometry which is composed of die features. These features are stored in die feature library to be prepared for producing a new die manufacturing. Die geometry is defined according to the characteristics of the profile so we can reuse die features from the previous similar profile design cases. This paper presents the CaseXpert Process Planning System for die manufacturing based on feature based neural network technique. Die manufacturing cases in the case library would be retrieved with searching and learning method by neural network for reusing or revising it to build a die design and process planning when a new case is similar with the previous die manufacturing cases. The results of the system are dies design and machining process. The system has been successfully tested, it has been proved that the system can reduce planning time and respond high consistent plans.
Correlation-hole induced paired quantum Hall states in lowest Landau level

description: A theory is developed for the paired even-denominator fractional quantum Hall states in the lowest Landau level. We show that electrons bind to quantized vortices to form composite fermions, interacting through an exact instantaneous interaction that favors chiral p-wave pairing. Two canonically dual pairing gap functions are related by the bosonic Laughlin wavefunction (Jastraw factor) due to the correlation holes. We find that the ground state is the Moore-Read pfaffian in the long wavelength limit for weak Coulomb interactions, a new pfaffian of an oscillatory pairing function for intermediate interactions, and a Read-Rezayi composite Fermi liquid beyond a critical interaction strength. Our findings are consistent with recent experimental observations of the 1/2 and 1/4 fractional quantum Hall effects in asymmetric wide quantum wells.

description: Inspired by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and its consequences on the global financial system, we develop a simple model in which the Lehman default event is quantified as having an almost immediate effect in worsening the credit worthiness of all financial institutions in the economic network. In our stylized description, all properties of a given firm are captured by its effective credit rating, which follows a simple dynamics of co-evolution with the credit ratings of the other firms in our economic network. The dynamics resembles the evolution of Potts spin-glass with external global field corresponding to a panic effect in the economy. The existence of a global phase transition, between paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases, explains the large susceptibility of the system to negative shocks. We show that bailing out the first few defaulting firms does not solve the problem, but does have the effect of alleviating considerably the global shock, as measured by the fraction of firms that are not defaulting as a consequence. This beneficial effect is the counterpart of the large vulnerability of the system of coupled firms, which are both the direct consequences of the collective self-organized endogenous behaviors of the credit ratings of the firms in our economic network.
The Q(5) Raman Line of Carbon Monoxide and its q-Gaussian Function

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: – In an article by Thibault et al., 2002, we can find measurements of Raman linewidths in the Q branch of the carbon monoxide in the case of mixtures with Argon at different temperatures. A plot is available for the Q(5) line and its fitted Voigt function. Here we show that a q-Gaussian Tsallis function can be used for fitting too. The fitted q-Gaussian shows that the wings are not Lorentzian. The difference between the experimental data and the fitted q-Gaussian seems being better than that obtained in the case of using the Voigt function. A discussion about the time correlation functions related to some line shapes is also proposed.

description: Recent analytical and computational advances in the theory of large-scale dynamos are reviewed. The importance of the magnetic helicity constraint is apparent even without invoking mean-field theory. The tau approximation yields expressions that show how the magnetic helicity gets incorporated into mean-field theory. The test-field method allows an accurate numerical determination of turbulent transport coefficients in linear and nonlinear regimes. Finally, some critical views on the solar dynamo are being offered and targets for future research are highlighted.

Using ultrasound to improve peripheral intravenous access rates at an outpatient infusion center: a quality improvement project
Creators: name: Naranjo, Nadia
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Successful intravenous (IV) access on the first attempt is crucial for effective medication delivery, enhanced patient comfort, and prevention of complications and delays. This project aimed to improve the first-attempt IV cannulation success rate by implementing the ADIVA tool and ultrasound-guided technology in an outpatient infusion center.Methodology: This quality improvement project spanned twelve weeks and was conducted at an outpatient infusion center in Essex County, New Jersey. Patients were screened using the ADIVA tool, and those with a score >4 were eligible for ultrasound-guided IV placement. Staff became certified in ultrasound use and were encouraged to use ultrasound in these cases. Staff feedback was gathered through pre- and post-implementation surveys administered via Qualtrics, and retrospective chart reviews were conducted five weeks before and after the intervention.Results: The study included five clinical staff members and 198 pre-implementation and 169 post-implementation patients. The first-attempt IV cannulation success rate decreased from 94.44% pre-implementation to 89.35% post-implementation. Staff only utilized ultrasound after two or more failed attempts. Although no statistically significant change in first-attempt success was observed, staff surveys indicated an increased likelihood of utilizing ultrasound for future patients with difficult IV access (DIVA).Implications for Practice: Integrating the ADIVA tool with ultrasound-guided IV cannulation can improve first-attempt success rates in DIVA patients by facilitating early identification and intervention, but staff training and comfort are key to its successful use. Keywords: Adult difficult intravenous access (ADIVA) tool, difficult cannulation, ultrasound-guided intravenous (IV) therapy, ultrasound for difficult intravenous access
Standard(-like) Model from an SO(12) Grand Unified Theory in six-dimensions with $S_2$ extra-space

description: We analyze a gauge-Higgs unification model which is based on a gauge theory defined on a six-dimensional spacetime with an $S^2$ extra-space. We impose a symmetry condition for a gauge field and non-trivial boundary conditions of the $S^2$. We provide the scheme for constructing a four-dimensional theory from the six-dimensional gauge theory under these conditions. We then construct a concrete model based on an SO(12) gauge theory with fermions which lie in a 32 representation of SO(12), under the scheme. This model leads to a Standard-Model(-like) gauge theory which has gauge symmetry SU(3) $\times$ SU(2)$_L$ $\times$ U(1)$_Y$($\times$ U(1)$^2$) and one generation of SM fermions, in four-dimensions. The Higgs sector of the model is also analyzed, and it is shown that the electroweak symmetry breaking and the prediction of W-boson and Higgs-boson masses are obtained.

description: This volume presents a collection of papers touching on various issues concerning the syntax and semantics of predicative constructions. A hot topic in the study of predicative copula constructions, with direct implications for the treatment of he (how many he's do we need?), and wider implications for the theories of predication, event-based semantics and aspect, is the nature and source of the situation argument. Closer examination of copula-less predications is becoming increasingly relevant to all these issues, as is clearly illustrated by the present collection.

description: We investigate the recently developed theory of multiple membranes. In particular, we consider open membranes, i.e. the theory defined on a membrane world volume with a boundary. We first restrict our attention to the gauge sector of the theory. We obtain a boundary action from the Chern-Simons terms. Secondly, we consider the addition of certain boundary terms to various Chern-Simons theories coupled to matter. These terms ensure the full bulk plus boundary action has the correct amount of supersymmetry. For the ABJM model, this construction motivates the inclusion of a boundary quartic scalar potential. The boundary dynamics obtained from our modified theory produce Basu-Harvey type equations describing membranes ending on a fivebrane. The ultimate goal of this work is to throw light on the theory of fivebranes using the theory of open membranes.
