title: A Buddhist Becoming: On Deleuze and Nāgārjuna’s Middle Path to Living as Practice
titleType: Other
Creators: name: Chiu, Allen
Publisher: name: University of Dundee
Year: 2023

description: While both Deleuze and Nāgārjuna have been extensively studied in their own traditions, there has been no thoroughgoing attempt to study them in conjunction. This thesis puts Deleuze and Nāgārjuna into such a relation, by examining each of their philosophies, and then overlapping them and to see where the differences and similarities reveal themselves.

The introduction is focused on creating a methodology for the rest of the thesis. Chapter 1 focuses purely on Deleuze and is meant to provide a thematic interpretation of Deleuze for the comparison proper. As such, Chapter 1 examines Deleuze’s relationship with Spinoza and Nietzsche as well as using Plato as a way into each of those relationships. There is then an interlude that serves as a coda to the exegetical analysis on Deleuze as well as functioning as a transitional point to examine the context of religion and mythology when it comes to comparing Deleuze and Nāgārjuna. Chapter 2 focuses on providing a historical context for mythology’s importance to Buddhism and Nāgārjuna. This is necessary, I argue, because modern, western conceptions of Buddhism differ from the Buddhism that Nāgārjuna worked from and, significantly, they underestimate the role of mythology in the tradition. Chapter 3 is an exegetical examination of chapters from Nāgārjuna’s magnum opus, the Mūlamadhyamakakārikā to give the reader context for comparing Nāgārjuna in the subsequent chapter.

Chapter 4 focuses on comparing and establishing a closeness between Deleuze and Nāgārjuna by examination of their shared problems as well as similarities in their respective solutions. Having established closeness between the two, the position of this thesis is that this is strong enough to overcome any potential opposition between Deleuze and Nāgārjuna. Following from this the chapter argues that a potential way to read Deleuze to his practical conclusion can be found in Nāgārjuna’s Buddhism.

description: We introduce a theoretical model to scrutinize the conductivity of small polarons in one-dimensional disordered systems, focusing on two crucial --as will be demonstrated-- factors: the density of states and the spatial extent of the electronic wave function. The investigation is performed for any temperature up to 300 K and under electric field of arbitrary strength up to the polaron dissociation limit. To accomplish this task we combine analytical work with numerical calculations.

Schatten und Kopie im Sakraltheater. Der auto sacramental als ikonologisches Reflexionsmedium
Creators: name: Abel, Johanna
Publisher: name: HeLix - Dossiers zur romanischen Literaturwissenschaft
Year: 2019

description: This article proposes autos sacramentales as a means of reflecting on images and their presence in the context of religion. Exploring the context of a presence culture in Catholic Spain and of sacramental representation as a wider European issue of pluri-confessionality, the auto sacramental emerges as an image-sensitive subject. Revisiting 17th century art debates, two figurations, the “parable of the seaside shadows” and the “copia divina”, are used to illustrate the plays’ ‘dramaturgy of doubling’ from the perspective of iconology. The early modern visual and material culture finds its way into the sacramental plays through a ‘poetics of transubstantiation’. Thus, in El verdadero Dios Pan (1670), Calderón uses ‘image transfiguration’ in the moment of change of substance, transforming a painting into a sculpture of a saint. Likewise, in El divino Narciso (1689) Sor Juana employs an elaborate image performativity, re-enacting for example the desire for images in the absence of the (sacred) body. These poetic modes sacralize the stage and mediate the presence of what they represent.

A Model for (Non-Lognormal) Density Distributions in Isothermal Turbulence

description: We propose a new, physically motivated fitting function for density PDFs in turbulent gas. Although it is known that when gas is isothermal, the PDF is approximately lognormal in the core, high-resolution simulations show large deviations from exact log-normality. The proposed function provides an extraordinarily accurate description of the density PDFs in simulations with Mach numbers ~0.1-15 and dispersion in log(rho) from ~0.01-4 dex. Compared to a lognormal or lognormal-skew-kurtosis model, the fits are improved by orders of magnitude in the wings of the distribution (with fewer free parameters). This is true in simulations using distinct numerical methods, including or excluding magnetic fields. Deviations from lognormality are represented by a parameter T that increases with the compressive Mach number. The proposed distribution can be derived from intermittent cascade models of the longitudinal (compressive) velocity differences, which should be directly related to density fluctuations, and we provide a simple interpretation of the density PDF as the product of a continuous-time relaxation process. As such the parameter T is consistent with the same parameter needed to explain the (intermittent) velocity structure functions; its behavior is consistent with turbulence becoming more intermittent as it becomes more dominated by strong shocks. It provides a new and unique probe of the role of intermittency in the density (not just velocity) structure of turbulence. We show that this naturally explains some apparent contradictory results in the literature based on use of different moments of the density PDF, as well as differences based on whether volume-weighted or mass-weighted quantities are measured. We show how these are fundamentally related to the fact that mass conservation requires violations of log-normal statistics.

Direct Determination of Expansion History Using Redshift Distortions

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the direct determination of expansion history using redshift distortions without plugging into detailed cosmological parameters. The observed spectra in redshift space include a mixture of information: fluctuations of density-density and velocity-velocity spectra, and distance measures of perpendicular and parallel components to the line of sight. Unfortunately it is hard to measure all the components simultaneously without any specific prior assumption. Common prior assumptions include a linear/quasi-linear model of redshift distortions or a model for the shape of the power spectra, which eventually breaks down on small scales at later epochs where nonlinear structure formation disturbs coherent growth. The degeneracy breaking, between the effect of cosmic distances and redshift distortions for example, depends on the prior we assume. An alternative approach is to utilize the cosmological principle inscribed in the heart of the Friedmann-Lematre-Robertson-Walker (hereafter FLRW) universe, that is, the specific relation between the angular diameter distance and the Hubble parameter, in this degeneracy breaking. We show that utilizing this FLRW prior early in the step of distinguishing the distance effect from redshift distortions helps us improve the detectability of power spectra and distance measures with no leaning on a combination of other experiments.

description: We propose a quantum error mitigation strategy for the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) algorithm. We find, via numerical simulation, that very small amounts of coherent noise in VQE can cause substantially large errors that are difficult to suppress by conventional mitigation methods, and yet our proposed mitigation strategy is able to significantly reduce these errors. The proposed strategy is a combination of previously reported techniques, namely randomized compiling (RC) and zero-noise extrapolation (ZNE). Intuitively, randomized compiling turns coherent errors in the circuit into stochastic Pauli errors, which facilitates extrapolation to the zero-noise limit when evaluating the cost function. Our numerical simulation of VQE for small molecules shows that the proposed strategy can mitigate energy errors induced by various types of coherent noise by up to two orders of magnitude.

description: Excerpts from the report Summary: The market quality of head lettuce was evaluated after 7 days at 36°, 41°, or 50° F. in atmospheres containing 0, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 5 or 8 percent O2 or in air and after an additional 3 or 4 days in air at 50° F. Concentrations of and 0 and 1/4 percent O2 injured the lettuce. Gray dead patches on the wrapper and cap leaves and dead young heart leaves were the principal symptoms of injury. The injuries became more severe as the temperature was increased. Russet spotting was reduced substantially in all low-oxygen (02) atmospheres tested, regardless of temperature. The incidence of pink rib was not affected by low-02 atmospheres. The severity, however, was reduced in 1/2 percent O2 when all test temperatures are considered, but increased in 2 percent O2 at 50° F. Decay was reduced, but not significantly, in 1 percent O2. Low temperature was more effective in reducing decay than low O2.

For each edge of the max-sum matching, consider the ellipse with foci at the edge's endpoints and eccentricity $\sqrt 3 / 2$. Using an optimization approach, we prove that the convex sets bounded by these ellipses intersect, answering a Tverberg-type question of Andy Fingerhut from 1995.

description: Recent studies suggest that there will be a shortfall in the near future of skilled talent available to help take advantage of big data in organizations. Meanwhile, government initiatives have encouraged the research community to share their data more openly, raising new challenges for researchers. Librarians can assist in this new data driven environment. Data Scientist Training for Librarians is an experimental course being offered by the Harvard Library to train librarians to respond to the growing data needs of their communities. In the course, librarians familiarize themselves with the research data lifecycle, hands-on, using the latest tools for extracting, wrangling, storing, analyzing and visualizing data. By experiencing the research data lifecycle themselves, becoming data savvy and embracing the data science culture, librarians can begin to imagine how their services might be transformed.

description: Four years after the last LISA meeting, the ADS finds itself in the middle of major changes to the infrastructure and contents of its database.  In this talk I will highlight a number of features of great importance to librarians and discuss the additional functionality that we are currently developing.

Starting in 2011, the ADS started to systematically collect, parse and index full-text documents for all the major publications in Physics and Astronomy as well as many smaller Astronomy journals and arXiv e-prints, for a total of over 3.5 million papers.  Our citation coverage has doubled since 2010 and now consists of over 70 million citations.  We are normalizing the affiliation information in our records and, in collaboration with the CfA library and NASA, we have started collecting and linking funding sources with papers in our system.

At the same time, we are undergoing major technology changes in the ADS platform which affect all aspects of the system and its operations.  We have rolled out and are now enhancing a new high-performance search engine capable of performing full-text as well as metadata searches using an intuitive query language which supports fielded, unfielded and functional searches.  We are currently able to index acknowledgments, affiliations, citations, funding sources, and to the extent that these metadata are available to us they are now searchable under our new platform.  The ADS private library system is being enhanced to support reading groups, collaborative editing of lists of papers, tagging, and a variety of privacy settings when managing one’s paper collection.

While this effort is still ongoing, some of its benefits are already available through the ADS Labs user interface and API, both of which I am happy to demo during the conference.

description: We place firm upper limits on the global accretion history of massive black holes at z>5 from the recently measured unresolved fraction of the cosmic X-ray background. The maximum allowed unresolved intensity observed at 1.5 keV implies a maximum accreted-mass density onto massive black holes of rho_acc < 1.4E4 M_sun Mpc^{-3} for z>5. Considering the contribution of lower-z AGNs, the value reduces to rho_acc < 0.66E4 M_sun Mpc^{-3}. The tension between the need for the efficient and rapid accretion required by the observation of massive black holes already in place at z>7 and the strict upper limit on the accreted mass derived from the X-ray background may indicate that black holes are rare in high redshift galaxies, or that accretion is efficient only for black holes hosted by rare galaxies.

description: We analyze the recent experimental evidence for an excess of $τ$-lepton production in several exclusive semileptonic $B$-meson decays in the context of two-Higgs-doublet models. These decay modes are sensitive to the exchange of charged scalars and constrain strongly their Yukawa interactions. While the usual Type-II scenario cannot accommodate the recent BaBar data, this is possible within more general models in which the charged-scalar couplings to up-type quarks are not as suppressed. Both the $B\to D^{(*)}τν_τ$ and the $B\toτν_τ$ data can be fitted within the framework of the Aligned Two-Higgs-Doublet Model, but the resulting parameter ranges are in conflict with the constraints from leptonic charm decays. This could indicate a departure from the family universality of the Yukawa couplings, beyond their characteristic fermion mass dependence. We discuss several new observables that are sensitive to a hypothetical charged-scalar contribution, demonstrating that they are well suited to distinguish between different scenarios of new physics in the scalar sector, and also between this group and models with different Dirac structures; their experimental study would therefore shed light on the relevance of scalar exchanges in semileptonic $b\to c\,τ^-\barν_τ$ transitions.

description: For adjusting the charging state of a molecular metal complex in the context of a density functional theory description of coherent electron transport through single molecule junctions, we correct for self interaction effects by fixing the charge on a counterion, which in our calculations mimics the effect of the gate in an electrochemical STM setup, with two competing methods, namely the generalized $Δ$ SCF technique and screening with solvation shells. One would expect a transmission peak to be pinned at the Fermi energy for a nominal charge of +1 on the molecule in the junction but we find a more complex situation in this multicomponent system defined by the complex, the leads, the counterion and the solvent. In particular equilibrium charge transfer between the molecule and the leads plays an importanty role, which we investigate in dependence on the total external charge in the context of electronegativity theory.

description: We present an analysis of scattering by a fluid-mechanical `black hole analogue', known as the draining bathtub vortex: a two-dimensional flow which possesses both a sonic horizon and an ergoregion. We consider the scattering of a plane wave of fixed frequency impinging upon the vortex. At low frequency, we encounter a modified Aharonov-Bohm effect. At high frequencies, we observe regular `orbiting' oscillations in the scattering length, due to interference between contra-orbiting rays. We present approximate formulae for both effects, and a selection of numerical results obtained by summing partial-wave series. Finally, we examine interference patterns in the vicinity of the vortex, and highlight the prospects for experimental investigation.

description: Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy is the method of choice for characterizing paramagnetic impurities, with applications ranging from chemistry to quantum computing, but it gives access only to ensemble-averaged quantities due to its limited signal-to-noise ratio. Single-electron-spin sensitivity has however been reached using spin-dependent photoluminescence, transport measurements, and scanning-probe techniques. These methods are system-specific or sensitive only in a small detection volume, so that practical single spin detection remains an open challenge. Here, we demonstrate single electron magnetic resonance by spin fluorescence detection, using a microwave photon counter at cryogenic temperatures. We detect individual paramagnetic erbium ions in a scheelite crystal coupled to a high-quality factor planar superconducting resonator to enhance their radiative decay rate, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 1.9 in one second integration time. The fluorescence signal shows anti-bunching, proving that it comes from individual emitters. Coherence times up to 3 ms are measured, limited by the spin radiative lifetime. The method has the potential to apply to arbitrary paramagnetic species with long enough non-radiative relaxation time, and allows single-spin detection in a volume as large as the resonator magnetic mode volume ( 10 um^3 in the present experiment), orders of magnitude larger than other single-spin detection techniques. As such, it may find applications in magnetic resonance and quantum computing.

description: It is well-known that Noether currents in the classical four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory (4D $\mathcal{N}=1$ SYM), i.e., the $U(1)_A$ current, the supersymmetry (SUSY) current and the energy-momentum tensor, form a multiplet under SUSY, called the Ferrara--Zumino supermultiplet. Inspired by this structure, we define the energy-momentum tensor in the lattice formulation of 4D $\mathcal{N}=1$ SYM by a renormalized super transformation of a lattice SUSY current. By using a renormalized SUSY Ward--Takahashi relation, the energy-momentum tensor so constructed is shown to be conserved in the quantum continuum limit. Our construction of the energy-momentum tensor is very explicit and usable in non-perturbative numerical simulations.

description: We analyze the properties of the Higgs candidate with mass ~ 125 GeV discovered by the CMS and ATLAS Collaborations, constraining the possible deviations of its couplings from those of a Standard Model Higgs boson. The CMS, ATLAS and Tevatron data are compatible with Standard Model couplings to massive gauge bosons and fermions, and disfavour several types of composite Higgs models unless their couplings resemble those in the Standard Model. We show that the couplings of the Higgs candidate are consistent with a linear dependence on particle masses, scaled by the electroweak scale ~ 246 GeV, the power law and the mass scale both having uncertainties ~ 20%.

description: The effectiveness of measurement-based feedback control (MBFC) protocols is hampered by the presence of measurement noise, which affects the ability to accurately infer the underlying dynamics of a quantum system from noisy continuous measurement records to determine an accurate control strategy. To circumvent such limitations, this work explores a real-time stochastic state estimation approach that enables noise-free monitoring of the conditional dynamics including the full density matrix of the quantum system using noisy measurement records within a single quantum trajectory -- a method we name as `conditional state tomography'. This, in turn, enables the development of precise MBFC strategies that lead to effective control of quantum systems by essentially mitigating the constraints imposed by measurement noise and has potential applications in various feedback quantum control scenarios. This approach is particularly useful for reinforcement-learning (RL)-based control, where the RL-agent can be trained with arbitrary conditional averages of observables, and/or the full density matrix as input (observation), to quickly and accurately learn control strategies.

We study the flows driven by this operator in the three Lagrangian theories without birefringence -- Born-Infeld, Plebanski, and reverse Born-Infeld -- all of which admit ModMax-like generalizations using a root-${T\overline{T}}$-like flow that we analyse in our paper. We demonstrate one way of making this root-${T\overline{T}}$-like flow manifestly supersymmetric by writing the deforming operator in $\mathcal{N} = 1$ superspace and exhibit two examples of superspace flows. We present scalar analogues in $d = 2$ with similar properties as these theories of electrodynamics in $d = 4$. Surprisingly, the Plebanski-type theories are fixed points of the classical ${T\overline{T}}$-like flows, while the Born-Infeld-type examples satisfy new flow equations driven by relevant operators constructed from the stress tensor. Finally, we prove that any theory obtained from a classical stress-tensor-squared deformation of a conformal field theory gives rise to a related ``subtracted'' theory for which the stress-tensor-squared operator is a constant.

description: We consider collision of two geodesic particles moving around rotating stationary axially symmetric black holes. It is shown for arbitrary nonequatorial motion that under certain conditions the energy in their centre of mass frame can grow unbound (the so-called BSW effect). This generalizes the previous results for equatorial motion around dirty (surrounded by matter) black holes and nonequatorial motion around the Kerr metric. It turns out that the BSW effect occurs near any point of the horizon surface. We do not use special symmetries of space-time typical of the Kerr metric, so the results are quite generic. The general scheme classifying all possible scenarios is discussed.

description: The discrete gradient structure and the positive definiteness of discrete fractional integrals or derivatives are fundamental to the numerical stability in long-time simulation of nonlinear integro-differential models. We build up a discrete gradient structure for a class of second-order variable-step approximations of fractional Riemann-Liouville integral and fractional Caputo derivative. Then certain variational energy dissipation laws at discrete levels of the corresponding variable-step Crank-Nicolson type methods are established for time-fractional Allen-Cahn and time-fractional Klein-Gordon type models. They are shown to be asymptotically compatible with the associated energy laws of the classical Allen-Cahn and Klein-Gordon equations in the associated fractional order limits.Numerical examples together with an adaptive time-stepping procedure are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our second-order methods.

description: What’s wrong with human rights discourse and equality legislation is their creation under the guise of neutrality. The practice of human rights and equality sit within administration systems that are in general sites of production and implementation of racism, homophobia, xenophobia, sexism, transphobia and ableism. Whilst the people subject to these types of discrimination fight hard and make sacrifices to win the inclusion of their rights, whilst such privileges sit within archaic systems - can they ever be anything more than a temporary respite from oppression not a resolution?
Analytical bounds for non-asymptotic asymmetric state discrimination

description: Two types of errors can occur when discriminating pairs of quantum states. Asymmetric state discrimination involves minimizing the probability of one type of error, subject to a constraint on the other. We give explicit expressions bounding the set of achievable errors, using the trace norm, the fidelity, and the quantum Chernoff bound. The upper bound is asymptotically tight and the lower bound is exact for pure states. Unlike asymptotic bounds, our bounds give error values instead of exponents, so can give more precise results when applied to finite-copy state discrimination problems.

description: The heterogeneous integration of silicon with III-V materials provides a way to overcome silicon's limited optical properties toward a broad range of photonic applications. Hybrid modes are a promising way to make heterogeneous Si/III-V devices, but it is still unclear how to engineer these modes to make photonic crystal cavities. Herein, using 3D finite-difference time-domain simulation, a hybrid Si-GaAs photonic crystal cavity design enables cavity mode confinement in GaAs without directly patterning that operates at telecom wavelengths. The hybrid cavity consists of a patterned silicon waveguide nanobeam that is evanescently coupled to a GaAs slab with quantum dots. We show that by engineering the hybrid modes, we can control the degree of coupling to the active material, which leads to a tradeoff between cavity quality factor and optical gain and nonlinearity. With this design, we demonstrate a cavity mode in the Si-GaAs heterogeneous region, which enables strong interaction with the quantum dots in the GaAs slab for applications such as low-power-threshold lasing and optical bistability (156 nW and 18.1 $μ$W, respectively). This heterogeneous integration of an active III-V material with silicon via a hybrid cavity design suggests a promising approach for achieving on-chip light generation and low-power nonlinear platforms.
Vorticity cascade and turbulent drag in wall-bounded flows: plane Poiseuille flow

description: Drag for wall-bounded flows is directly related to flux of spanwise vorticity outward from the wall. In turbulent flows a key contribution arises from cross-stream "vorticity cascade" by nonlinear advection and stretching of vorticity. We study this process using numerical simulation data of turbulent channel flow at $Re_τ=1000$. The net transfer from the wall of fresh spanwise vorticity created by downstream pressure drop is due to two large opposing fluxes, one which is "down-gradient" or outward from the wall, where most vorticity concentrates, and the other which is "up-gradient" or toward the wall and acting against strong viscous diffusion in the near-wall region. We present evidence that the up-gradient transport occurs by a mechanism of correlated inflow and spanwise vortex stretching that was proposed by Lighthill. This mechanism is essentially Lagrangian, but we explicate its relation to the Eulerian anti-symmetric vorticity flux tensor. As evidence for the mechanism we study (i) statistical correlations of the wall-normal velocity and of wall-normal flux of spanwise vorticity, (ii) vorticity flux cospectra that identify eddies involved in nonlinear vorticity transport in the two opposing directions, and (iii) visualizations of coherent vortex structures which contribute dominantly to the transport. The "D-type" vortices contributing dominantly to down-gradient transport in the log-layer are found to be attached, hairpin-type vortices. However, the "U-type" vortices contributing dominantly to up-gradient transport are detached, wall-parallel, pancake-shaped vortices with strong spanwise vorticity, as expected by Lighthill's mechanism. We discuss modifications to the attached eddy model and implications for turbulent drag reduction.

description: A topological insulator (TI) is an unusual quantum state in which the insulating bulk is topologically distinct from vacuum, resulting in a unique metallic surface that is robust against time-reversal invariant perturbations. These surface transport properties, however, remains difficult to be isolated from the bulk in existing TI crystals (Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3) due to impurity caused bulk conduction. We report in large crystals of topological Kondo insulator (TKI) candidate material SmB6 the thickness-independent surface Hall effects and non- local transport, which are robust against perturbations including mechanical abrasion. These results serve as proof that at low temperatures SmB6 has a robust metallic surface that surrounds a truly insulating bulk, paving the way for transport studies of the surface state in this proposed TKI material.

description: The three-dimensional Dirac semimetal is distinct from its two-dimensional counterpart due to its dimensionality and symmetry. Here, we observe that molecule-based quasi-two-dimensional Dirac fermion system, $α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$, exhibits chiral anomaly-induced negative magnetoresistance and planar Hall effect upon entering the coherent inter-layer tunneling regime under high pressure. Time-reversal symmetry is broken due to the strong electronic correlation effect, while the spin-orbit coupling effect is negligible. The system provides an ideal platform for investigating the chiral anomaly physics by controlling dimensionality and strong electronic correlation.
