description: The electronic states of the Hubbard model are investigated by use of the Composite Operator Method. In addition to the Hubbard operators, two other operators related with two-site composite excitations are included in the basis. Within the present formulation, higher-order composite excitations are reduced to the chosen operatorial basis by means of a procedure preserving the particle-hole symmetry. The positive comparison with numerical simulations for the double occupancy indicates that such approximation improves over the two-pole approximation.

description: Des leur récolte en Janvier 197S puis en Décembre 1979, des bulbi1 les de D. alata c.v. Tahiti sont placées a 182 C et 80Ž d'hygrométrie. Elles serviront â planter 12 bulbilies chaque mois. 1) En conservation, on constate que la température de 182 C provoque le ralentissement de l'évolution physiologique des bulbilies avec une germination tardive, peu abondante qui aboutit â la formation de bulbilles-filles après 12 mois. 2) Au champ, le repos végétatif est de l'ordre de 90 jours. 3) La durée.de végétation décroit de la plantation de Janvier â la plantation de Novembre en passant de 250 ä 113 jours. La production moyenne de tubercules par plante est en bonne corrélation avec la durée du cycle. 4) Les plantations de Janvier â Juin ont une fanaison groupée. Les bulbilles âgées d'un an placées en Décembre et en Janvier donnent des plantes dont les durées de végétation sont anarchiques. Les bulbilles âgées de 12 mois et plus, placées â partir de Février donnent des plantes vigoureuses ayant un cycle semblable â celui des plantes issues de plants normaux. Cela conduit â penser que si l'état d'évolution interne de la bulbille conditionne l'évolution de la plajn te qui en est issue dans certaines conditions, lorsque les jours redeviennent croissants, l'influence du milieu devient prépondérante sur l'état physiologique de la bulbille-mere.

description: Pressure sensitivity (up to 1 GPa) of the electrical resistivity and of the ac susceptibility was measured for low electron doping levels of Ca$_{1-x}$Y$_x$MnO$_3$ (CYMO) and of Ca$_{1-x}$Sm$_x$MnO$_3$ (CSMO) ceramic samples (0.05 $\leq$ x $\leq$ 0.15). A very weak pressure dependence of the Curie temperature (T$_c$) was observed for both systems ($\sim$ 6 K GPa$^{-1}$), when compared to the hole-doped manganites of the same T$_c$ ($\sim$ 20 K GPa$^{-1}$). Our results can be interpreted within a modified Double Exchange scenario, where pressure alters the reduction of the bandwidth produced by the electron-phonon interaction associated with small Fröhlich polarons in the weak to intermediate coupling regime.

Relationality, hybridity, awareness : being with AIBO
Creators: name: Hall, Lauren
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: I have been exploring relationships with technologies and the robotic dog AIBO for over a year. A documentation of my experiences culminated in my AIBO Research Journal, which is an outcome of autoethnographic methodology. For a portion of the year, I worked with five participants who observed and recorded their interactions with technologies and AIBO. My own developing relationship with AIBO and observations prompted questions about potential curriculum design. Other research has shown that many people give animalized and anthropomorphized robots greater moral standing than other technologies. I asked whether the cyborgenic qualities of AIBO, in that it is dog and machine-like, could stimulate perceptions of raised moral standing, not only towards the robot, but towards other technologies as well. My concern arises out of the need for humans to become aware of their relationships with technologies and the effects of these relationships on ourselves, others, and environments. I used design-based research methodology to construct an environment in which participants engaged with technologies and AIBO and used phenomenological reflection to observe effects of the interactions. These observations were collected in journals, audio and video recordings, and interviews. With this data and a range of other sources, an ethnographic picture was generated that gives a sense of the ways people interact with technologies and AIBO. My research offers an account of human-technology and human-robot relationships, but also tests curriculum design that emphasizes awareness of ourselves, nonhuman animals, and environments. Donna Haraway and Bruno Latour, among others, emphasize a view of relations that promotes thoughtful ways of understanding relationality, otherness, and being. Theories on hybridity, cyborgs, and companion species are major guides for this work. I found that people have many different ways of relating with technologies and AIBO, which suggests the ambiguity and interconnectedness of human-technology and human-robot relationships.

description: Research on metacognition in English as a foreign language (EFL) writing is heavily dependent on a valid measure to assess metacognitive ability. Since there is no report of a validated domain -specific measure of metacognitive awareness of foreign language (FL) writing this study made an attempt to develop and validate a metacognitive awareness writing questionnaire (MAWQ). In order to construct the questionnaire, an interview with 59 EFL learners was conducted. Based on the content analysis as well as the literature, a framework for metacognitive awareness of writing was developed which led to a hypothesized model, as well as a preliminary inventory. To validate the questionnaire, various exploratory factor analyses were run, and as a result, no clear pattern of hypothesized subscales of knowledge and regulation of cognition emerged. However, in the analysis of the whole questionnaire through EFA, the researcher’s assumption regarding the two general scales of MAWQ was supported indicating that knowledge and regulation of cognition are two main components of MAWQ.

description: Early-type stars are short lived and scarce in comparison with other types. Based on the recently released catalogs of early type stars from the largest LAMOST spectroscopic survey, the intrinsic colors of the stars with effective temperature up to 32,000\,K are determined for the bands from ultraviolet to infrared by using the blue-edge method. Analytic relations are derived for the intrinsic color index with the effective temperature for the \emph{WISE}, 2MASS, \emph{Gaia}, APASS, SDSS, Pan-STARRS1, and \emph{GALEX} bands. The results are generally consistent with previous works. In addition, the intrinsic colors of O-type dwarfs and OB supergiants are roughly estimated.

description: Making a linguistic theory is like making a programming language: one typically devises a type system to delineate the acceptable utterances and a denotational semantics to explain observations on their behavior. Via this connection, the programming language concept of delimited continuations can help analyze natural language phenomena such as quantification and polarity sensitivity. Using a logical metalanguage whose syntax includes control operators and whose semantics involves evaluation order, these analyses can be expressed in direct style rather than continuation-passing style, and these phenomena can be thought of as computational side effects.

description: In the same sense that AdS_5 warped geometries arise naturally from Type IIB string theory with stacks of D3 branes, AdS_7 warped geometries arise naturally from M theory with stacks of M5 branes. We compactify two spatial dimensions of AdS_7 to get AdS_5 X Sigma^2, where the metric for Sigma^2 inherits the same warp factor as appears in the AdS_5. We analyze the 5d spectrum in detail for the case of a bulk scalar or a graviton in AdS_5 X T^2, in a setup which mimics the first Randall-Sundrum model. The results display novel features which might be observed in experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. For example, we obtain TeV scale string winding states without lowering the string scale. This is due to the double warping which is a generic feature of winding states along compactified AdS directions. Experimental verification of these signatures of AdS_7 could be interpreted as direct evidence for M theory.

description: Consider the problem: given the data pair (x,y) drawn from a population with f*(x)=E[y|x=x], specify a neural network model and run gradient flow on the weights over time until reaching any stationarity. How does ft, the function computed by the neural network at time t, relate to f*, in terms of approximation and representation? What are the provable benefits of the adaptive representation by neural networks compared to the prespecified fixed basis representation in the classical nonparametric literature? We answer the above questions via a dynamic reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) approach indexed by the training process of neural networks. First, we show that when reaching any local stationarity, gradient flow learns an adaptive RKHS representation and performs the global least-squares projection onto the adaptive RKHS, simultaneously. Second, we prove that as the RKHS is data-adaptive and task-specific, the residual for f* lies in a subspace that is potentially much smaller than the orthogonal complement of the RKHS. The result formalizes the representation and approximation benefits of neural networks. Finally, we show that the neural network function computed by gradient flow converges to the kernel ridgeless regression with an adaptive kernel, in the limit of vanishing regularization. The adaptive kernel viewpoint provides new angles of studying the approximation, representation, generalization, and optimization advantages of neural networks.

description: Given a class of compact spaces, we ask which groups can be maximal parabolic subgroups of a relatively hyperbolic group whose boundary is in the class. We investigate the class of 1-dimensional connected boundaries. We get that any non-torsion infinite f.g. group is a maximal parabolic subgroup of some relatively hyperbolic group with connected one-dimensional boundary without global cut point. For boundaries homeomorphic to a Sierpinski carpet or a 2-sphere, the only maximal parabolic subgroups allowed are virtual surface groups (hyperbolic, or virtually $\mathbb{Z} + \mathbb{Z}$).

description: Programmatic advertising operates one of the most sophisticated and efficient service platforms on the Internet. However, the complexity of this ecosystem is a direct cause of one of the most important problems in online advertising, the lack of transparency. This lack of transparency enables subsequent problems such as advertising fraud, which causes billions of dollars in losses. In this paper we propose Ads.chain, a technological solution to the lack-of-transparency problem in programmatic advertising. Ads.chain extends the current effort of the Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB) in providing traceability in online advertising through the Ads.txt and Ads.cert solutions, addressing the limitations of these techniques. Ads.chain is (to the best of the authors' knowledge) the first solution that provides end-to-end cryptographic traceability at the ad transaction level. It is a communication protocol that can be seamlessly embedded into ad-tags and the OpenRTB protocol, the de-facto standards for communications in online advertising, allowing an incremental adoption by the industry. We have implemented Ads.chain and made the code publicly available. We assess the performance of Ads.chain through a thorough analysis in a lab environment that emulates a real ad delivery process at real-life throughputs. The obtained results show that Ads.chain can be implemented with limited impact on the hardware resources and marginal delay increments at the publishers lower than 0.20 milliseconds per ad space on webpages and 2.6 milliseconds at the programmatic advertising platforms. These results confirm that Ads.chain's impact on the user experience and the overall operation of the programmatic ad delivery process can be considered negligible.

description: We report results of specific heat measurements on polycrystalline samples of the layered superconductor, Na(0.3)CoO(2).1.3H(2)O. The electronic contribution to the specific heat, gamma, is found to be 12.2 mJ/mol-K2. The feature at the superconducting transition is rather sharp, becoming broad and strongly suppressed in an applied magnetic field. The data indicate a residual normal state electronic specific heat at low temperatures, implying that there is a sizable population of normal state electrons in the samples even below Tc. Inhomogeneity in the Na content, to which the superconducting state is exquisitely sensitive, appears to be the most likely explanation for these results. These results further indicate that special sample handling is required for an accurate characterization of the superconducting state in this material.

description: The implementation of the 2nd generation high-Tc superconductors in power applications, such as electrical transformers, motors and generators requires superconducting wires that are superior to copper Litz wires at cryogenic temperatures in terms of losses in time-varying magnetic field, as well as in engineering current density. Another problem is to find a way to make practical coils and armatures out of flat tape-like conductors with low bending strain tolerance. We discuss several novel approaches to the construction of coils and armatures based specifically on the properties of coated conductors manufactured today.

REMARKS
 Sohn (1960) considered Bairdia menardensis as a junior synonym of B. grahamensis Harlton, 1928. The figured specimens of B. grahamensis (Sohn 1960: 45, pl. 1, figs 9-10, 15, 16) are different from our specimens. However, the characters such as subrhombohedral carapace, highly arched DB, narrowly rounded AB and PB, and upturned PB agree well with characters of Bairdia menardensis described by Chen (1958) from the Early Permian of China. In the studied specimens, AVB is slightly convex and maximum of curvature of AB is located at or just above mid H.

description: We construct a class of conserved currents for linearized gravity on a Kerr background. Our procedure, motivated by the current for scalar fields discovered by Carter (1977), is given by taking the symplectic product of solutions to the linearized Einstein equations that are defined by symmetry operators. We consider symmetry operators that are associated with separation of variables in the Teukolsky equation, as well as those arising due the self-adjoint nature of the Einstein equations. In the geometric optics limit, the charges associated with these currents reduce to sums over gravitons of positive powers of their Carter constants, much like the conserved current for scalar fields. We furthermore compute the fluxes of these conserved currents through null infinity and the horizon and identify which are finite.

description: Vor dem Hintergrund des Ausbaus erneuerbarer Energien und der damit verbundenen notwendigen Umstrukturierung des Stromsystems steigt aktuell der Bedarf an nachfrageseitiger Flexibilität. Der industrielle Sektor steht hier im Fokus, da er für einen Großteil des Strombedarfs verantwortlich ist. In den letzten Jahren wurden deshalb verschiedene Flexibilitätsmaßnahmen identifiziert, die auf verschiedenen Ebenen von Produktionssystemen umgesetzt werden können. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird der Fokus auf die Nutzung inhärenter Energiespeicher (IES) und insbesondere auf die Teilmenge der hysteresegeregelten Anlagen gelegt. Zunächst wird eine Methode zur Identifizierung und Bewertung des Flexibilitätspotenzials dieser Anlagen entwickelt, die auf verschiedene Nutzenergieformen in Produktionssystemen übertragbar ist. Eine wesentliche Herausforderung ist hierbei zu gewährleisten, dass das abrufbare Flexibilitätspotenzial der jeweiligen Anlage mit den üblichen Kennzahlen für Flexibilitätsprodukte beschreibbar ist. Neben der Methode zur Potenzialerfassung werden verschiedene Strategien zur Befähigung von einzelnen Anlagen und Anlagenpools untersucht und eine generische Funktionsbibliothek abgeleitet. Diese Funktionsbibliothek kann zur Simulation des Verhaltens von Anlagenpools sowie zur Befähigung realer Anlagen zu einem energieflexiblen Betrieb genutzt werden. Die entwickelten Lösungen dieser Arbeit sind auf eine Vielzahl an Anlagen übertragbar und können dazu dienen, den Kosten-, Energie- und Ressourcenaufwand für die Errichtung elektrischer Energiespeicher im Stromsystem zu reduzieren.

description: The purpose of this article is to determine the behavior of consumers supporting sustainable consumption in the consumption of electricity in households. It presents an analysis of data on electricity consumption in the European Union and the Polish provinces using the information contained in Eurostat and the Local Data Bank. At the same time in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie region, a pilot study was conducted using an anonymous questionnaire on consumer behavior in the use of electricity. Research shows that in the last decade, household electricity consumption decreased in most countries in the European Union. Electricity consumption in Polish households in the period was growing in all provinces by 2010. The pilot study shows that for the consumers who were surveyed, it is important to save energy, but if the use of energy from renewable source comes at a higher price, they would not be willing to pay more for it. / Synopsis. Celem artykułu jest określenie zachowań konsumentów wspierających zrównoważoną konsumpcję w zakresie zużycia energii elektrycznej w gospodarstwach domowych. Dokonano analizy danych dotyczących zużycia energii elektrycznej w krajach Unii Europejskiej oraz w województwach Polski. Skorzystano z informacji zawartych w Eurostacie oraz w Banku Danych Lokalnych. Równocześnie na terenie województwa kujawsko-pomorskiego zostały przeprowadzone badania pilotażowe, przy użyciu kwestionariusza anonimowej ankiety, dotyczące zachowań konsumentów w zakresie korzystania z energii elektrycznej. Z badań wynika, że w ostatnim dziesięcioleciu w sektorze gospodarstw domowych w większości państw Unii Europejskiej zużycie energii elektrycznej zmniejszyło się. Zużycie energii elektrycznej w polskich gospodarstwach domowych w badanym okresie rosło we wszystkich województwach do 2010 roku. Z badań pilotażowych wynika, że dla badanych konsumentów istotne jest oszczędzanie energii, jednak gdyby istniała możliwość korzystania z energii pochodzącej z odnawialnych źródeł, ale za wyższą cenę, to nie byliby skłonni płacić za nią więcej.
title: Implementation across national boundaries: Implementing the Government of India Act 1935
Creators: name: Borooah, Vidya
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: This thesis examines decisions made in one country and implemented in another. Implementation of such decisions is explored principally by means of a case study of implementation, namely implementation of the Government of India Act, 1935, passed by the British Parliament that year. The first chapter shows, that decision-making literature, in the field of international relations, has concentrated on the process by which decisions are arrived at, while implementation of such decisions has been largely neglected. Where implementation has been dealt with in the literature, it can be organised in terms of two models. A third model of implementation which describes better the implementation process, and a number of propositions about implementation derived from the existing literature are put forward. The model and propositions are tested against the case study. The method adopted is one of using case studies to build theory. The implementation of three decisions within the 1935 Act is examined; the first dealt with division of revenues between the centre and the provinces; the second, the grant of autonomy to the provinces; and the third, the establishment of an all-India federation to include both, the princely states and the provinces of British India. The model and the propositions guide the analysis of the case studies, though these are not rigidly structured in order to allow the idiosyncratic aspects of each case to be taken into account. The period having been thoroughly examined by historians, mainly secondary sources were used, though some primary material, not fully examined by historians till now, was used in the first case study. The first two decisions were implemented, while the third was not, and a comparison between the three cases is made in the concluding chapter. The chapter examines the evidence for the model and for the propositions that was found in the case studies. Comparison of the three cases enables conclusions to be drawn about factors that are conducive to successful implementation, and those that are antithetical to implementation.

description: The aim of the study is to assess changes in the size and structure of foreign trade of meat products and their impact on the domestic markets of the various types of livestock in the period before and after the integration with the EU. Analyzed were the years 1996-2014 – 9 years before the integration and 10 years after Poland formally entered the EU structures. Polish entry into the structures of the EU resulted in much deeper changes than expected. They concern the scale and structure of international trade but above all the structure and direction of changes in domestic production. Producers and processors of poultry worked out an advantageous position in the domestic market as well as more broadly in the EU. The market for beef is the most export-oriented and unfortunately its situation depends on the conditions of export. The biggest problem appeared in the pork market. From approx. 2008, this market was relatively stable in association with a relatively unfavorable economic situation for Polish livestock producers. From a net exporter of pork, Poland became a big importer. /Synopsis. Celem opracowania jest ocena zmian wielkości i struktury handlu zagranicznego produktami mięsnymi i ich wpływu na krajowe rynki poszczególnych rodzajów żywca w okresie poprzedzającym i po integracji z UE. Analizowano lata 1996-2014 - 9 lat poprzedzających integrację i 10 lat po formalnym wejściu Polski w struktury UE. Wejście Polski w struktury UE spowodowało znacznie głębsze zmiany niż się spodziewano. Dotyczą one skali i struktury handlu międzynarodowego ale przede wszystkim struktury i kierunków zmian w produkcji krajowej. Korzystną pozycję na rynku krajowym a także szerzej na rynku unijnym wypracowali producenci i przetwórcy drobiu. Rynek wołowiny jest w największym stopniu zorientowany proeksportowo i niestety koniunktura na nim jest uzależniona od warunków eksportu. Największy problem zarysował się na rynku wieprzowiny. Od ok. 2008 r. ukształtowała się na tym rynku względnie stabilna sytuacja, związana z niezbyt korzystną koniunkturą dla polskich producentów żywca. Z eksportera netto wieprzowiny Polska stała się jej dużym importerem.

description: We present a novel, type-logical analysis of_polarity sensitivity_: how negative polarity items (like "any" and "ever") or positive ones (like "some") are licensed or prohibited. It takes not just scopal relations but also linear order into account, using the programming-language notions of delimited continuations and evaluation order, respectively. It thus achieves greater empirical coverage than previous proposals.

description: It is shown that the field equations derived from an effective interaction hamiltonian for Maxwell and gravitational fields in the semiclassical approximation of loop quantum gravity using rotational invariant states (such as weave states) are Lorentz invariant. To derive this result, which is in agreement with the observational evidence, we use the geometrical properties of the electromagnetic field.

description: It has been known that a B=2 skyrmion is axially symmetric. We consider the Skyrme model coupled to gravity and obtain static axially symmetric regular and black hole solutions numerically. Computing the energy density of the skyrmion, we discuss the effect of gravity to the energy density and baryon density of the skyrmion.

description: Three-dimensional single-component ideal gas systems composed of model homogeneous rigid molecules in various molecular shapes and sizes are simulated by a molecular Monte Carlo simulation technique. We reveal that percolation thresholds of such single-component systems result in, when the molecular volume is fixed, power-law decreasing functions of the radius of gyration (gyradius) of the molecules. The systems with the same parameter set of the molecular volume and radius of gyration, but in different molecular shapes, show the identical value of the percolation threshold. Moreover, we also reveal that a dimensionless scale-free parameter, which is the ratio between the radius of gyration and real cube root of the molecular volume, uniquely determines the percolation threshold.

title: Accessibility and public transport in Sheffield: Case studies of policy implementation
Creators: name: Workman, Helen Mary
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: The planning policies of South Yorkshire County Council are based on the philosophy of helping the "have-nots". From these policies a number of hypotheses concerning accessibility to and by public transport have been defined and tested in the Sheffield study area to gauge the extent to which the policies have been implemented. The literature on accessibility is reviewed with attention to recent work concerning accessibility by public transport. The Sheffield study area is described and the Structure Plan and other planning documents of South Yorkshire County Council are assessed with regard to policies relating to accessibility and public transport. Recent changes in the level of bus service provision in the study area are summarised. Access to bus services is investigated in terms of walking and waiting times for 170 sampling points. Overall the route density - service frequency trade-off is found to be optimal. The spatial variation in the walking and waiting times is such that areas with high proportions of people dependent on public transport do not have more accessible bus services than other areas. Access to bus services is investigated further in the Mosborough area with the relationship between the introduction and improvement of bus services and the occupation of new housing being studied. Accessibility by public transport to specific facilities is investigated. In spite of Structure Plan policies little improvement in the accessibility of five district shopping centres in Sheffield has taken place. Areas with poor access by bus to sports centres and public libraries are defined and possible locations for new facilities evaluated. In the first ten years of its existence South Yorkshire County Council has supported policies relating to improvements in accessibility and public transport. The work reported in this thesis indicates that the implementation of such policies has not always been achieved.

description: The aim of the paper was to determine the impact of changes in the common organization of sugar market on the geographical scope using the method Elzinga-Hogarty. The research was conducted before the introduction of the reform in 2006 and now after its implementation. We used secondary data on sugar production, consumption, imports and exports on country and European Union (EU)level gathered for by the International Sugar Organization. Defined geographical scope of the sugar market can be described as almost global - both in 2006 and in 2013. The reform conducted in the EU (the EU market change from a net exporter to a net importer) did not affect substantially on the sugar market’s geographical delineation. It changed moderately the structure of the countries that formed the market and increased share of such market in the global turnover of sugar. / Synopsis. Celem artykułu było określenie oddziaływania zmian we wspólnej organizacji rynku cukru na jego zasięg geograficzny przy wykorzystaniu metody Elzinga-Hogarty. Badania przeprowadzono przed wprowadzeniem reformy, tj. w 2006 r. oraz obecnie, tj. po jej wdrożeniu. W artykule wykorzystano dane wtórne dotyczące produkcji, konsumpcji, importu i eksportu cukru na poziomie państw oraz Unii Europejskiej (UE) gromadzone przez International Sugar Organization. Zdefiniowany zasięg geograficzny rynku cukru można określić jako niemal globalny – zarówno w 2006, jak i w 2013 r. Zatem reforma przeprowadzona w UE (powodująca zmianę UE z eksportera netto w importera netto) nie wpłynęła zasadniczo na charakter rynku cukru. Pewnym zmianom uległa struktura krajów tworzących ten rynek, a także wzrósł jego udział w światowych obrotach.

description: The interaction between migrating melts and the upper mantle largely affects the composition of the ascending melt and residual peridotites. In island arcs, melt-rock interactions and products which involved highly depleted mantle peridotites are still largely undocumented despite their petrological importance. In this contribution, the petrographic and geochemical signatures of refractory and refertilized peridotites comprising the mantle section of the southern Palawan Ophiolite, Philippines are investigated. The peridotites are dominantly comprised of residual spinel harzburgites with minor dunite and plagioclase peridotites. Spinel harzburgites are similar to other highly depleted residual mantle materials of other suprasubduction zone ophiolites. Plagioclase peridotites, which are cut by gabbroic intrusions, preserve distinct petrological characteristics indicating melt-rock interaction. The melts preserved as gabbroic dikes have signatures transitional between mid-ocean ridge and island arc, and are comparable to back-arc basin lavas. We therefore propose that the plagioclase peridotites were formed due to the reaction between highly depleted mantle peridotites beneath an intraoceanic arc and migrating BABB-like magmas possibly during the incipient stages of back-arc rifting.

description: The Neoproterozoic Zhoutan Group, located at the conjunction area between the Yangtze and the Cathaysia Blocks, preserves an important record of the Neoproterozoic sedimentary system of the South China Block. However, its accurate depositional age, provenance, and tectonic affinity remain poorly studied. Here, we report new LA-ICP-MS detrital zircon U–Pb age data of four meta-sedimentary samples from the Zhoutan Group in the Nancheng area for complemental decipherment of its sedimentary and tectonic histories. Concordant detrital zircon ages reveal proportions of 54% latest Mesoproterozoic to early Neoproterozoic (ca. 1050–820 Ma), 24% early Paleoproterozoic (ca. 2500–2150 Ma), and 22% late Paleoproterozoic to early Mesoproterozoic (ca. 2000–1500 Ma) populations. Youngest detrital zircon age clusters exhibit a consistent weighted mean age of ca. 827 Ma, suggesting the maximum Tonian depositional age of the Zhoutan Group. Provenance interpretations reveal that the detritus of investigated samples were mainly sourced from the proximal Jiangnan Orogen with some additionally derived from the Cathaysia Block, the interior Yangtze Block, and/or extraneous terranes. In addition, the appearance of some later early Palaeozoic-aged (ca. 437 Ma) metamorphic rims and grains suggest that the Zhoutan Group has locally experienced an intense metamorphism during the early Palaeozoic (Silurian) time, which has been consistently recorded by the Neoproterozoic meta-strata in the Cathaysia Block. These new data, together with those from previous studies, indicate that the Zhoutan Group belongs to the early Neoproterozoic sedimentary successions between the Yangtze and the Cathaysia Blocks. Subsequently, it might be thrusted onto the present side of the Cathaysia Block during later tectonic processes and was affected by locally metamorphism during the Silurian time. Thus, such observations suggest that the potential border between the Yangtze and the Cathaysia Blocks should be to the north of the current position of the Zhoutan Group.
