description: Lieb, Schultz and Mattis (LSM) studied the S=1/2 XXZ spin chain. Theorems of LSM's paper can be applied to broader models. In the original LSM theorem it was assumed the nonfrustrating system. However, reconsidering the LSM theorem, we can extend the LSM theorem for frustrating systems. Next, several researchers have tried to extend the LSM theorem for excited states. In the cases $S^{z}_{T} = \pm 1,\pm 2 \cdots$, the lowest energy eigenvalues are continuous for wave number $q$. But we find that their proofs are insufficient, and we improve them. In addition, we can prove the LSM theory without the assumption of the discrete symmetry, which means that the LSM type theorems are applicable for Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya type interactions or other nonsymmetric models.

description: Dune height is an important predictor of impact during a storm event given that taller dunes have a lower likelihood of being overtopped than shorter dunes. However, the temporal dominance of the wave collision regime, wherein volume loss (erosion) from the dune occurs through dune retreat without overtopping, suggests that dune width must also be considered when evaluating the vulnerability of dunes to erosion. We use XBeach, a numerical model that simulates hydrodynamic processes, sediment transport, and morphologic change, to analyze storm-induced dune erosion as a function of dune aspect ratio (i.e., dune height versus dune width) for storms of varying intensity and duration. We find that low aspect ratio (low and wide) dunes lose less volume than high aspect ratio (tall and narrow) dunes during longer and more intense storms when the beach width is controlled for. In managed dune scenarios, where sand fences are used to construct a "fenced"dune seaward of the existing "natural"dune, we find that fenced dunes effectively prevent the natural dune behind them from experiencing any volume loss until the fenced dune is sufficiently eroded, reducing the magnitude of erosion of the natural dune by up to 50ĝ€¯%. We then control for dune morphology to assess volume loss as a function of beach width and confirm that beach width exerts a significant influence on dune erosion; a wide beach offers the greatest protection from erosion in all circumstances while the width of the dune determines how long the dune will last under persistent scarping. These findings suggest that efforts to maintain a wide beach may be effective at protecting coastal communities from dune loss. However, a trade-off may exist in maintaining wide beaches and dunes in that the protection offered in the short-term must be considered in concert with potentially long-term detrimental effects of limiting overwash, a process which is critical to maintaining island elevation as sea level rises.

"And All This Happen Again": Apocalyptic Cycles in Battlestar Galactica
Creators: name: Elstermann, Annika
Publisher: name: Apocalyptica
Year: 2022

description: This contribution examines cycles of death and (re-)birth and the interplay of destruction and creation in light of the repeating apocalypse which is the central theme of Battlestar Galactica (2003–2009). To theorise these cycles of repetition, the article draws on concepts from psychoanalysis such as Eros and Thanatos, as well as mythological examples of creation from destruction. At its core, this article attempts to answer three questions, at least within the context of Battlestar Galactica: Why should or shouldn’t humanity survive the apocalypse? Why (and how) should we bother to? And why does everything that has happened before need to happen again?

description: The incidence of melanoma has increased steadily in the United States over several decades, doubling in the years between 1982 and 2011. The incidence of melanoma, currently at 19.7/100,000 person years, is projected to continue to rise. This tumor is responsible for the majority of skin cancer related deaths, totaling approximately 9000 person per year. Without intervention, the annual cost of treating new melanomas in the United States is projected to increase from $457 million in 2011 to $1.6 billion in 2030.3 These costs and associated mortality of melanomas can be reduced through public health measures. In Rhode Island, melanoma incidence has increased 86% compared to an increase of 64% in the national population since 1987 (infographic). More concerning, mortality rates from melanoma in Rhode Island have increased 4% compared to 0% in the national population since 1987 (infographic). The Center for Disease Control’s Community Preventive Services Task Force recommends community-based public health programs in combating the rise in melanoma, using educational, environmental, and policy interventions. Skin cancer screenings by dermatologists in at-risk populations may help to facilitate the diagnosis and mortality of melanoma through early detection.

description: Coastal dunes are dynamic features that are continuously evolving due to constructive (e.g., wind- and wave-driven sediment transport) and destructive (e.g., elevated total water levels during storm events) processes. However, the relative importance of these processes in determining dune evolution is often poorly understood. In this study, ten lidar datasets from 1997 to 2016 are used to determine the relative role of erosion and accretion processes driving foredune change on the coast of Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina, USA. Beach and dune morphometrics reveal that dune toe locations have generally retreated since 1997, while dune crest heights accreted by 0.01–0.02 m/year. We develop three univariate metrics that represent (1) the potential for erosion, i.e., total water level impact hours per year, (2) accretion, i.e., dune building hours per year, and (3) the relative net effect of foredune accretion and erosion processes, i.e., constructive–destructive dune forcing (CDDF) ratio, and test the correlative power of these metrics in explaining changes in foredune morphology. The total water level impact hours per year metric explained as much as 66% and 67% of the variance in dune crest and toe elevations, respectively, across the nearly two decades of dune evolution. The greatest number of dune building hours per year and largest dunes within the study site co-occurred at locations exposed to the dominant cross-shore wind direction as a result of varying shoreline orientation. The CDDF ratio was positively correlated to changes in the dune toe elevation in approximately 70% of dunes within the study site, outperforming the impact and dune building hours per year metrics. Our results show that these three metrics can provide first-order estimates of dune morphometric change across multiple spatial and temporal scales, which may be particularly useful at sites where lidar acquisition is intermittent.
The Geopolitics of the Chosen People's Apocalypse
Creators: name: Sturm, Tristan
Publisher: name: Apocalyptica
Year: 2022

description: Jews for Jesus (JFJ) is an aggressive American Christian Zionist missionary organization. Their particular worldview is both Jewish and Christian by faith whilst bridging American and Israeli national identities. Through critical discourse analysis of a key text, as well as a series of interviews, this article explores the apocalyptic geopolitics of members of the JFJ’s Los Angeles branch and compares these views with a book on the apocalypse written by the JFJ Executive Director, David Brickner. This article shows that discourse analysis of apocalyptic social movements alone often misses the everyday and discordant discourses surrounding their theo-political imaginations. The three interviews examined show vast deviations in understanding and motivation that are unaccounted for in previous scholarship on religious geopolitics. This article concludes that these everyday discourses have influence on the cultural conceptualizations of both Christian and Jewish apocalypses and on many text-based academic findings concerning evangelicals and Messianic Jews.

Red Pill: The Structure of Contemporary Apocalypse
Creators: name: Curtis, Neal
Publisher: name: Apocalyptica
Year: 2022

description: Taking apocalypse literally as “uncovering” this paper talks about contemporary apocalypse as a collection of narratives uncovering a range of conspiracies such as white genocide and the Great Replacement, the New World Order, incels and feminism, and the COVID hoax. These cohere into a movement often referred to as Alt-Right where a feature of practice is to uncover types of thinking and forms of ‘truth’ that are supposedly suppressed, such as race science. The lead metaphor for this generation of conspiracy thinking is the “red pill” metaphor from the film The Matrix. This metaphor—ingestion of a sacrament—also ties the movement to religion and the traditional context of apocalypse. Addressing this dominant reading of apocalypse the paper goes on to explain how these conspiracies are responses to ontological precarity and the perceived collapse of a world. The paper uses the work of Martin Heidegger and Jacques Lacan to show how challenges to the dominant social structure—challenges based in gender, “race”, sexuality and conceptions of white privilege—undermine a sense of a “world”, causing anxiety and violence as individuals and groups seek to secure themselves through aggressive forms of self-expansion in the face of supposedly annihilating threats.

Dune Dynamics Drive Discontinuous Barrier Retreat

description: Barrier islands and spits tend to migrate landward in response to sea-level rise through the storm-driven process of overwash, but overwash flux depends on the height of the frontal dunes. Here, we explore this fundamental linkage between dune dynamics and barrier migration using the new model Barrier3D. Our experiments demonstrate that discontinuous barrier retreat is a prevalent behavior that can arise directly from the bistability of foredune height, occurring most likely when the storm return period and characteristic time scale of dune growth are of similar magnitudes. Under conditions of greater storm intensity, discontinuous retreat becomes the dominant behavior of barriers that were previously stable. Alternatively, higher rates of sea-level rise decrease the overall likelihood of discontinuous retreat in favor of continuous transgression. We find that internal dune dynamics, while previously neglected in exploratory barrier modeling, are an essential component of barrier evolution on time scales relevant to coastal management.
The Astronomer at the End of the World
Creators: name: Urry, Amelia
Publisher: name: Apocalyptica
Year: 2022

description: During the fin de siècle, a Romantic trend in apocalyptic fiction coincided with a boom in popular science writing and spectacles. Astronomer and science popularizer Camille Flammarion made his career at this confluence, establishing a vision of science as fundamentally imaginative and necessarily in communication with the public, rather than a strictly empirical enterprise limited to specialists. This essay will take Flammarion’s use of apocalyptic themes and imagery as a window onto the turbulent negotiations over scientific authority around the turn of the century. In his novel La Fin du monde, and related writings, speculative plots about the end of the world are used to deliver scientific knowledge to the public, while at the same time demonstrating the potential dangers of bad communication and irresponsible speculation. For Flammarion, the end of the world was an especially fruitful site for these debates because it was both impossible and unavoidable: impossible because the universe was supposedly infinite, and unavoidable because entropy pointed in only one direction. This apparently unresolvable dilemma provided an ideal setting for Flammarion’s vision of an open science as authoritative over unseen events and mediating through troublesome processes of transmission and distortion.

description: Through a combination of experimental techniques we show that the topmost layer of the topo- logical insulator TlBiSe$_2$ as prepared by cleavage is formed by irregularly shaped Tl islands at cryogenic temperatures and by mobile Tl atoms at room temperature. No trivial surface states are observed in photoemission at low temperatures, which suggests that these islands can not be re- garded as a clear surface termination. The topological surface state is, however, clearly resolved in photoemission experiments. This is interpreted as a direct evidence of its topological self-protection and shows the robust nature of the Dirac cone like surface state. Our results can also help explain the apparent mass acquisition in S-doped TlBiSe$_2$.

description: Sand fences are a frequently used management tool on developed coastlines because they are inexpensive and easy to install. While the geomorphic effect of sand fences has been investigated before, previous studies have been limited in both temporal and spatial domains. Here, we present the evolution of Bogue Banks, a developed barrier island along the Outer Banks of North Carolina, over a 20-year period from 1997 to 2016 where sand fences were emplaced along parts of the island in 2010. We use LiDAR-derived cross-shore transects (n = 38,454) to measure beach and foredune features along the extent (~40 km) of Bogue Banks for every available year of lidar data as well as the locations of sand fences, which we identify in 39% of the transects following fence construction. First, we found that vertical growth of the natural foredunes along Bogue Banks was slightly positive between 2010 and 2016 despite an increased amount of shoreline erosion. This pattern was coincident with a combination of sand fence installation and beach nourishment efforts, which were most heavily focused on the eastern end of the island. Second, we found that natural foredunes located behind fenced dunes are typically shorter, wider, and smaller in volume than natural foredunes in non-fenced and undeveloped areas. Although this may partly be due to a tendency for fences to be installed in front of more vulnerable dunes, our results suggest that, once emplaced, sand fences prevent growth of the landward foredune behind fenced dunes. These findings suggest that sand fences block sediment supply to landward dunes, leading to a shorter and wider complex foredune than would otherwise naturally occur.

description: Time-periodic perturbations of an asymmetric Duffing-Van-der-Pol equation close to an integrable equation with a homoclinic "figure-eight" of a saddle are considered. The behavior of solutions outside the neighborhood of "figure-eight" is studied analytically. The problem of limit cycles for an autonomous equation is solved and resonance zones for a nonautonomous equation are analyzed. The behavior of the separatrices of a fixed saddle point of the Poincare map in the small neighborhood of the unperturbed "figure-eight" is ascertained. The results obtained are illustrated by numerical computations.

description: We study the ground-state density profile of a spin-orbit coupled $f=2$ spinor condensate in a quasi-one-dimensional trap. The Hamiltonian of the system is invariant under time reversal but not under parity. We identify different parity- and time-reversal-symmetry-breaking states. The time-reversal-symmetry breaking is possible for degenerate states. A phase separation among densities of different components is possible in the domain of time-reversal-symmetry breaking. Different types of parity- and time-reversal-symmetry-breaking states are predicted analytically and studied numerically. We employ numerical and approximate analytic solutions of a mean-field model in this investigation to illustrate our findings.

description: Seagrass provides a wide range of economically and ecologically valuable ecosystem services, with shoreline erosion control often listed as a key service, but can also alter the sediment dynamics and waves within back-barrier bays. Here we incorporate seagrass dynamics into an existing barrier-marsh exploratory model, GEOMBEST++, to examine the coupled interactions of the back-barrier bay with both adjacent (marsh) and nonadjacent (barrier island) subsystems. While seagrass reduces marsh edge erosion rates and increases progradation rates in many of our 288 model simulations, seagrass surprisingly increases marsh edge erosion rates when sediment export from the back-barrier basin is negligible because the ability of seagrass to reduce the volume of marsh sediment eroded matters little for back-barrier basins in which all sediment is conserved. Our model simulations also suggest that adding seagrass to the bay subsystem leads to increased deposition in the bay, reduced sediment available to the marsh, and enhanced marsh edge erosion until the bay reaches a new, shallower equilibrium depth. In contrast, removing seagrass liberates previously sequestered sediment that is then delivered to the marsh, leading to enhanced marsh progradation. Lastly, we find that seagrass reduces barrier island migration rates in the absence of back-barrier marsh by filling accommodation space in the bay. These model observations suggest that seagrass meadows operate as dynamic sources and sinks of sediment that can influence the evolution of coupled marsh and barrier island landforms in unanticipated ways.

description: The incidence of melanoma has increased steadily in the United States over several decades, doubling in the years between 1982 and 2011. The incidence of melanoma, currently at 19.7/100,000 person years, is projected to continue to rise. This tumor is responsible for the majority of skin cancer related deaths, totaling approximately 9000 person per year. Without intervention, the annual cost of treating new melanomas in the United States is projected to increase from $457 million in 2011 to $1.6 billion in 2030.3 These costs and associated mortality of melanomas can be reduced through public health measures. In Rhode Island, melanoma incidence has increased 86% compared to an increase of 64% in the national population since 1987 (infographic). More concerning, mortality rates from melanoma in Rhode Island have increased 4% compared to 0% in the national population since 1987 (infographic). The Center for Disease Control’s Community Preventive Services Task Force recommends community-based public health programs in combating the rise in melanoma, using educational, environmental, and policy interventions. Skin cancer screenings by dermatologists in at-risk populations may help to facilitate the diagnosis and mortality of melanoma through early detection.

description: This conference proceeding is from the Chartered Association of Business Schools LTSE 2020. We draw on Nicol’s (2020) recent re-conceptualisation of feedback as underpinned by comparison processes and on prior cognitive research on comparison (e.g. Gentner, 2010). Nicol maintains that to learn from teacher comments, students must compare them against their work and that they generate new knowledge and understanding out of that comparison. Comments are not feedback, rather they are the information that generates feedback. Based on this, Nicol proposes that we tap into and build on students’ natural feedback capacity by asking them to deliberately compare their work against many different sources of information, material and social and to make the outputs explicit in writing, discussion and action. This proceeding outlines Nicol's model and illustrates its use with two examples of practice.

description: People are often struck by the unique ‘burr’ of the New Zealand English (NZE) spoken in the Southland/Otago regions. This study aims to revisit Bartlett’s (2002) study on Southland English (SldE) by providing a targeted analysis of the /r/-coloured NURSE vowel. Furthermore, this talk wishes to quantify the claim held by Trudgill et al. (2003) that rhoticity in the NURSE vowel is a remnant of Scottish English where the NURSE lexical can be distinguished by its preceding KIT, DRESS and STRUT vowel (or FIR, FERN, and FUR lexical set as observed by Wells (1982)).25 SldE speakers from Bartlett’s (2002) study were retrieved from the Origins of New Zealand Corpus housed at the University of Canterbury. Tokens been manually coded, and acoustic and social data have been analysed using R (R Development Core Team, 2016) including mixed-effects regression models and formant analyses of both non-rhotic and rhotic variables. Further to this, phonological feature priming as proposed by Clark (2014) has been included to analyse the social motivations behind sociolinguistic variation observed in SldE. The findings are as follows:The realisation of postvocalic-/r/ following a NURSE vowel is highly variable among SldE speakers, howeverThe normalised F1/F2 formants indicate an intra-speaker relationship between the preceding vowel and whether it is artefact of the KIT, DRESS or STRUT lexical set preceding a prevocalic-/r/, or the NURSE vowel as in contemporary NZE in non-prevocalic-/r/ conditionsThe median-level of constriction (as indicated by the lowered F3 formant) corresponds to the varying levels of rhoticity in FIR, FERN and FURThe occurrence of a variable is positively influenced by the realisation of the previous variable and the maintenance of a particular variable decays over timePhonological feature priming of NURSE is not influenced by contextual/environmental factorsReferencesBartlett, C.

Apocalypse When? Two Views from the End Times

description: The end is already here; the end is yet to come: not a pair of contradictory statements but one statement made up of two parts, forming a temporal modality—already /not yet—which orders much of contemporary political, ecological, and philosophical discourse about the future. The present has already foreclosed on the future; the present is the crucial time to act to avoid this foreclosure. The grammatical tense of the Anthropocene is therefore the future perfect: we speak of human and nonhuman worlds as they will have been, of our sphere of action within the irreversible transformations of life and earth as they will have occurred. This essay is an examination of already/not yet as the dominant temporal position in and of our contemporary crises. I offer a brief sketch of its recent historical development and attempt to draw out the affective and phenomenological tendencies which it contains, describes and performs—suggesting that this temporal positioning has contributed, over the past century, to the apocalypse becoming permanentized, rendering recuperative action difficult and mourning impossible. Finally, I ask whether an alternative temporal positioning to the already/not yet might be possible—a modality of no more/still, which orients the subject towards the future not through the imposition of a looming and latent eventuality but through a difficult, incomplete, and ultimately generative confrontation with what simultaneously is and is no more/never was.

description: We investigate the Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) in impact parameter space using the explicit light front wave functions (LFWFs) for the two-particle Fock state of the electron in QED. The Fourier transform (FT) of the GPDs gives the distribution of quarks in the transverse plane for zero longitudinal momentum transfer ($ξ=0$). We study the relationship of the spin flip GPD $E(x,0,-\vecΔ_\perp^2)$ with the distortion of unpolarized quark distribution in the transverse plane when the target nucleon is transversely polarized and also determine the sign of distortion from the sign of anomalous magnetic moment. To verify the sign of distortion, we also compute it directly from the LFWFs by performing a FT in position space coordinate $\vec{f}_\perp$. The explicit relation between the deformation in the two spaces can also be obtained using the convolution integrals. To show the relation of the model LFWFs to a realistic model of nucleon physics, we have designed a specific weight function of our model LFWFs and integrated it over the mass parameter. Also we have simulated the form factor of the nucleon in the AdS/QCD holographic LFWFs model and studied the power-law behaviour at short distances.

description: Converging evidence suggests that common complex diseases with the same or similar clinical manifestations could have different underlying genetic etiologies. While current research interests have shifted toward uncovering rare variants and structural variations predisposing to human diseases, the impact of heterogeneity in genetic studies of complex diseases has been largely overlooked. Most of the existing statistical methods assume the disease under investigation has a homogeneous genetic effect and could, therefore, have low power if the disease undergoes heterogeneous pathophysiological and etiological processes. In this paper, we propose a heterogeneity weighted U (HWU) method for association analyses considering genetic heterogeneity. HWU can be applied to various types of phenotypes (e.g., binary and continuous) and is computationally effcient for high- dimensional genetic data. Through simulations, we showed the advantage of HWU when the underlying genetic etiology of a disease was heterogeneous, as well as the robustness of HWU against different model assumptions (e.g., phenotype distributions). Using HWU, we conducted a genome-wide analysis of nicotine dependence from the Study of Addiction: Genetics and Environments (SAGE) dataset. The genome-wide analysis of nearly one million genetic markers took 7 hours, identifying heterogeneous effects of two new genes (i.e., CYP3A5 and IKBKB) on nicotine dependence.
