title: History of Urdu Language and Literature Down to the Year 1720.
Creators: name: Qadiri, S. G. Muhiuddin
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1930

description: I. The available material dealing with this subject is very scanty, largely unscientific, and often based on second-hand information. Even the Catalogues have many mistakes in them. Therefore it was necessary to study the original Urdu and Persian manuscripts (both literary and historic) in the British Museum, India Office Library, Edinburgh University Library, and the Bibliotheque National, Paris. II. New Discoveries. a. Nearly 70 poets hitherto unknown are here discussed, see list of Marsia-writers, p. 297. The others are:-1. Atishi 2. Maqimi 5. Mahmud 6. Feroz 3. Khushnad 7. Shauqi 4. Amin 8. Khiali 9. Ghulam'Ali b. The following Urdu works were also not known before:-1. Qutub Mushtari of Vajhi; 2. Padmavat of Ghulam 'Ali; 3. Jusuf Zalikha of Khushnud 4. The Diwan of Rustumi (3 and 4 Not Contained in any European Libraries) III. Some misunderstandings about important writers have been corrected:-1. The author of Hasht Behisht is Khushnud, not Muhammad Shah (p. 121). 2. The author of Candar Badan-o-Mahyar is Muqimi not'Aziz (p. 103). 3. The real author of Bahram-o-Banu Husn was Amin, not Daulat who only completed it (p. 107). 4. Information given about this Daulat, otherwise unknown (p. 123). 5. The name of Kamal kha was Rustumi, not Rasmi (p.114); information given about his Khavar Nama (p.p.114-117) 6. The name of Junaidi was not Shaikh Ahmad but 'Ali Akbar (p. 212). 7. Nusrati's Guldasta-e-'Ishq not a masnavi but a collection of ghazals (p. 146). 8. Ibn-e-Nashati not translated a Tuti Nama (p. 216) 9. The Dah Majlis attributed to Vali Aurangabadi re by Vali of Vellore (p. 263). 10, Confusion about certain poets cleared up:- (a) The 4 poets called Amin (pp. 106, 221, and 255) (b) " 2 " " Nuri (pp. 109 and 227). (c) " 3 " " Mirza (pp.160 and 229). (d) Hashim and Hashimi (pp. 152 and 284). IV. Much new information based on M.S. study about:- 1. Vajhi (p. 189) 2. Rustumi (p. 114) 3. Nusrati (p. 126) 4. Ibn-e-Nashati (p. 213) 5. Hashim 'Ali (p. 284). V. The writer has here presented some new views about the origin and development of Urdu. In this connection he has taken advantage of his belonging to the Dakhan in discussing the divergence between the northern and southern forms of Urdu.

title: Some Aspects of Shi'ite Propaganda Under the Fatimids in Egypt.
Creators: name: Hassan, Hassan Ibrahim
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1927

description: Stress is particularly laid upon two aspects of Fatimid propaganda in Egypt, viz. Education and Literature. (1) Chapter I. An account of the Shi'ite propaganda up to the rise and establishment of the Fatimid Khilafah in N. Africa. The beginning of the Shi'ite propaganda in the reign of 'Uthman, the third Khalifah, its continuation during the Umayyad dynasty, and the passing of the right to the imamah from the 'Alids to the 'Abbasids, and their mutual hostilities after the establishment of the 'Abbasid Khilafah. The failure of subsequent Shi'ite propaganda to establish an independent 'Alid empire in the East, and the transference of this propaganda to the West (N. Africa) and the causes which favoured its success there. An account of Abu 'Abdi-llah's career of conquest in N. Africa up to the establishment of the Fatimid Khilafah. Chapter II. A discussion of the genealogy of the Fatimids. The importance of Egypt for the Fatimids in the efforts to spread their Shi'ite doctrines under the following headings: (a) the geographical situation of Egypt, between the East where Shi'ite propaganda had failed and the West where it succeeded in establishing an independent empire. (b) the wealth and tranquility of Egypt as compared with Muslim dominions in the East. (c) these circumstances as favouring the establishment the Fatimid authority in Egypt and in the East soon after their conquest of Egypt. (d) Egypt, rather than the Maghrib made by the Fatimid centre of Shi'ite propaganda. Chapter III. Educational propaganda: The organisation by the Fatimids of their propaganda in the mosques and libraries; the royal palace becomes the centre of Shi'ite propaganda, which is carried on by the Chief Da'i and his assistants and supported by the Fatimid Khalifahs themselves. Chapter IV. Literary Propaganda : The part played by the poets, scribes and learned men in the spread of the Fatimid propaganda and the influence upon these learned men, and the poets in particular, were of the lavish grants made by the Fatimid Khalifahs and their wazirs and other men of high status. Each separate reign of the Fatimid Khalifahs is considered in detail.

description: With just the Standard Model Higgs doublet, there are only three types of seesaw models that generate light Majorana neutrino masses at tree level after electroweak spontaneous symmetry breaking. However, if there exist additional TeV scalars acquiring vacuum expectation values, coupled with heavier fermionic multiplets, several new seesaw models become possible. These new seesaws are the primary focus of this study and correspond to the tree-level ultraviolet completions of the effective operators studied in a companion publication. We are interested in the genuine cases, in which the standard seesaw contributions are absent. In addition to the tree-level generation of neutrino masses, we also consider the one-loop contributions. Furthermore, we construct low-energy versions that exhibit a very rich phenomenology. Specifically, we scrutinise the generation of dimension-6 operators and explore their implications, including non-unitarity of the leptonic mixing matrix, non-universal $Z-$boson interactions, and lepton flavor violation. Finally, we provide (Generalised) Scotogenic-like variants that incorporate viable dark matter candidates.

Localization in Quantum Field Theory

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We review the issue of localization in quantum field theory and detail the nonrelativistic limit. Three distinct localization schemes are examined: the Newton-Wigner, the algebraic quantum field theory, and the modal scheme. Among these, the algebraic quantum field theory provides a fundamental concept of localization, rooted in its axiomatic formulation. In contrast, the Newton-Wigner scheme draws inspiration from the Born interpretation, applying mainly to the nonrelativistic regime. The modal scheme, relying on the representation of single particles as positive frequency modes of the Klein-Gordon equation, is found to be incompatible with the algebraic quantum field theory localization.
 This review delves into the distinctive features of each scheme, offering a comparative analysis. A specific focus is placed on the property of independence between state preparations and observable measurements in spacelike separated regions. Notably, the notion of localization in algebraic quantum field theory violates this independence due to the Reeh-Schlieder theorem. Drawing parallels with the quantum teleportation protocol, it is argued that causality remains unviolated. Additionally, we consider the nonrelativistic limit of quantum field theory, revealing the emergence of the Born scheme as the fundamental concept of localization. Consequently, the nonlocality associated with the Reeh-Schlieder theorem is shown to be suppressed under nonrelativistic conditions.

description: Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) host tightly bound quasi-particles called excitons. Based on spin and momentum selection rules, these excitons can be either optically bright or dark. In tungsten-based TMDs, momentum-forbidden dark exciton is the energy ground state and therefore it strongly affect the emission properties. In this work, we brighten the momentum forbidden dark exciton by placing WS$_2$ on top of nanotextured substrates which put the WS$_2$ layer under tensile strain, modifying electronic bandstructure. This enables phonon assisted scattering of exciton between momentum valleys, thereby brightening momentum forbidden dark excitons. Our results will pave the way to design ultrasensitive strain sensing devices based on TMDs.

description: Integrating adversarial machine learning with Question Answering (QA) systems has emerged as a critical area for understanding the vulnerabilities and robustness of these systems. This article aims to comprehensively review adversarial example-generation techniques in the QA field, including textual and multimodal contexts. We examine the techniques employed through systematic categorization, providing a comprehensive, structured review. Beginning with an overview of traditional QA models, we traverse the adversarial example generation by exploring rule-based perturbations and advanced generative models. We then extend our research to include multimodal QA systems, analyze them across various methods, and examine generative models, seq2seq architectures, and hybrid methodologies. Our research grows to different defense strategies, adversarial datasets, and evaluation metrics and illustrates the comprehensive literature on adversarial QA. Finally, the paper considers the future landscape of adversarial question generation, highlighting potential research directions that can advance textual and multimodal QA systems in the context of adversarial challenges.

description: We prove that for every $k\ge 10$, the online Ramsey number for paths $P_k$ and $P_n$ satisfies $\tilde{r}(P_k,P_n) \geq \frac{5}{3}n + \frac{k}{9} - 4$, matching up to a linear term in $k$ the upper bound recently obtained by Bednarska-Bzd{ę}ga. In particular, this implies $\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{\tilde{r}(P_k, P_n)}{n} = \frac{5}{3}$, whenever $10 \le k=o(n)$, disproving a conjecture by Cyman, Dzido, Lapinskas and Lo.

description: Dense Hopfield networks are known for their feature to prototype transition and adversarial robustness. However, previous theoretical studies have been mostly concerned with their storage capacity. We bridge this gap by studying the phase diagram of p-body Hopfield networks in the teacher-student setting of an unsupervised learning problem, uncovering ferromagnetic phases reminiscent of the prototype and feature learning regimes. On the Nishimori line, we find the critical size of the training set necessary for efficient pattern retrieval. Interestingly, we find that that the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transition of the teacher-student setting coincides with the paramagnetic to spin-glass transition of the direct model, i.e. with random patterns. Outside of the Nishimori line, we investigate the learning performance in relation to the inference temperature and dataset noise. Moreover, we show that using a larger p for the student than the teacher gives the student an extensive tolerance to noise. We then derive a closed-form expression measuring the adversarial robustness of such a student at zero temperature, corroborating the positive correlation between number of parameters and robustness observed in large neural networks. We also use our model to clarify why the prototype phase of modern Hopfield networks is adversarially robust.

description: We investigate the evolution of entanglement within an open, strongly coupled system interacting with a heat bath as its environment, in the frameworks of both the doubly holographic model and the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. Generally, the entanglement within the system initially increases due to internal interactions; however, it eventually dissipates into the environment. In the doubly holographic setup, we consider an end-of-the-world brane in the bulk to represent an eternal black hole coupled with its radiation and the evolution of the global thermofield double (TFD) state. For small black holes, the reflected entropy between the bipartition exhibits a ramp-plateau-slump behavior, where the plateau arises due to the phase transition of the entanglement wedge cross-section before the Page time. Similarly, the mutual information between the bipartition displays a ramp-slop-stabilizing behavior. In quantum mechanics, we consider a double copy of the SYK-plus-bath system in a global TFD state, resembling an eternal black hole interacting with an environment. The Rényi mutual information within the double-copied SYK clusters exhibits a ramp-plateau-slope-stabilizing behavior. The dynamic behaviors of the entanglement quantities observed in these two models are attributable to the competition between the internal interaction of the system and the external interaction with the baths. Our study provides a fine-grained picture of the entanglement dynamics inside black holes before their Page time.

Year: 1963

description: This thesis deals with Curzon's policy towards the Princely States of India in its historical context. The background of previous Government policy and of Curzon's ideas are first examined. Then his own policy is examined with reference to specific problems such as: the imposition of restrictions on the general conduct and movement of the Princes and Chiefs inside and outside India, the centralisation of political control, the educational problems and wants of the Indian ruling class, the employment of India's aristocracy in the Government's civil and military services, besides the ultimate settlement of the outstanding Berar issue. The historic occasions at London and Delhi connected with the Coronation of Edward VII are analysed with reference to the role of the Princes and Chiefs. The sanctions imposed including the deposition of some of the Princes and Chiefs are dealt with. An assessment has been attempted of the general problems concerning the States' internal administration and industrial development, and their share in Imperial defence.

description: For a number of antiarrhythmics, drug loading requires a 3 day hospitalization with monitoring for QT prolongation. Automated QT monitoring with wearable ECG monitors would facilitate out-of-hospital care. We develop a deep learning model that infers QT intervals from ECG lead-I - the lead most often acquired from ambulatory ECG monitors - and to use this model to detect clinically meaningful QT-prolongation episodes during Dofetilide drug loading. Using 4.22 million 12-lead ECG recordings from 903.6 thousand patients at the Massachusetts General Hospital, we develop a deep learning model, QTNet, that infers QT intervals from lead-I. Over 3 million ECGs from 653 thousand patients are used to train the model and an internal-test set containing 633 thousand ECGs from 135 thousand patients was used for testing. QTNet is further evaluated on an external-validation set containing 3.1 million ECGs from 667 thousand patients at another institution. QTNet was used to detect Dofetilide-induced QT prolongation in a publicly available database (ECGRDVQ-dataset) containing ECGs from subjects enrolled in a clinical trial evaluating the effects of antiarrhythmic drugs. QTNet achieves mean absolute errors of 12.63ms (internal-test) and 12.30ms (external-validation) for estimating absolute QT intervals. The associated Pearson correlation coefficients are 0.91 (internal-test) and 0.92 (external-validation). For the ECGRDVQ-dataset, QTNet detects Dofetilide-induced QTc prolongation with 87% sensitivity and 77% specificity. The negative predictive value of the model is greater than 95% when the pre-test probability of drug-induced QTc prolongation is below 25%. Drug-induced QT prolongation risk can be tracked from ECG lead-I using deep learning.

description: General quantum computation consists of unitary operations and also measurements. It is well known that intermediate quantum measurements can be deferred to the end of the computation, resulting in an equivalent purely unitary computation. While time efficient, this transformation blows up the space to linear in the running time, which could be super-polynomial for low-space algorithms. Fefferman and Remscrim (STOC'21) and Girish, Raz and Zhan (ICALP'21) show different transformations which are space efficient, but blow up the running time by a factor that is exponential in the space. This leaves the case of algorithms with small-but-super-logarithmic space as incurring a large blowup in either time or space complexity. We show that such a blowup is likely inherent, demonstrating that any "black-box" transformation which removes intermediate measurements must significantly blow up either space or time.

description: This study introduces the Supervised Magnitude-Altitude Scoring (SMAS) methodology, a machine learning-based approach, for analyzing gene expression data obtained from nonhuman primates (NHPs) infected with Ebola virus (EBOV). We utilize a comprehensive dataset of NanoString gene expression profiles from Ebola-infected NHPs, deploying the SMAS system for nuanced host-pathogen interaction analysis. SMAS effectively combines gene selection based on statistical significance and expression changes, employing linear classifiers such as logistic regression to accurately differentiate between RT-qPCR positive and negative NHP samples. A key finding of our research is the identification of IFI6 and IFI27 as critical biomarkers, demonstrating exceptional predictive performance with 100% accuracy and Area Under the Curve (AUC) metrics in classifying various stages of Ebola infection. Alongside IFI6 and IFI27, genes, including MX1, OAS1, and ISG15, were significantly upregulated, highlighting their essential roles in the immune response to EBOV. Our results underscore the efficacy of the SMAS method in revealing complex genetic interactions and response mechanisms during EBOV infection. This research provides valuable insights into EBOV pathogenesis and aids in developing more precise diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies to address EBOV infection in particular and viral infection in general.

Abstract 
Apremilast (Otezla®) is an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4) being developed by Amgen. It is approved in multiple countries worldwide, including the USA and those of the EU, for the treatment of adults with psoriatic arthritis, plaque psoriasis, or oral ulcers associated with Behçet’s disease. In April 2024, based on clinical data in patients aged 6–17 years, apremilast received its first pediatric approval in the USA for the treatment of pediatric patients aged ≥ 6 years and weighing ≥ 20 kg with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for phototherapy or systemic therapy. Apremilast was also approved in the EU in October 2024 for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in children and adolescents from the age of 6 years and weighing ≥ 20 kg who are candidates for systemic therapy. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of apremilast leading to the first pediatric approval for plaque psoriasis.

We take the experimental data as guides to perform updated analysis, and obtain the masses and decay constants, especially the decay constants, which are the fundamental input parameters in the high energy physics, therefore the pure leptonic decay widths, which can be confronted to the experimental data in the future.

description: Nanostructured ferroelectrics display exotic multidomain configurations resulting from the electrostatic and elastic boundary conditions they are subject to. While the ferroelectric domains appear frozen in experimental images, atomistic second-principles studies suggest that they may become spontaneously mobile upon heating, with the polar order {\sl melting} in a liquid-like fashion. Here we run molecular dynamics simulations of model systems (PbTiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ superlattices) to study the unique features of this transformation. Most notably, we find that the multidomain state looses its translational and orientational orders at different temperatures, resembling the behavior of liquid crystals and yielding an intermediate hexatic-like phase. Our simulations reveal the mechanism responsible for the melting and allow us to characterize the stochastic dynamics in the hexatic-like phase: we find evidence that it is thermally activated, with domain reorientation rates that grow from tens of gigahertzs to terahertzs in a narrow temperature window.

We study normal forms satisfying this extended fellow traveler property and certain geometric constraints that naturally generalize two fundamental properties of an automatic normal form - the regularity of its language and the bounded length difference property. We show examples of such normal forms and prove some non-existence theorems.

description: In this study, we explore the precise physical quantities in the thermodynamic limit of the one-dimensional Hubbard model with nonparallel boundary magnetic fields based on the off-diagonal Bethe ansatz solution. A particular emphasis is placed on the half-filling condition to investigate the distinct patterns of Bethe roots in the reduced Bethe ansatz equations for different boundary parameters. The ground state of the system can be divided into five regions according to the distribution of Bethe roots. By analyzing these patterns, we calculate the densities of states, ground-state energy density, and surface energy. The results reveal the existence of stableboundary bound states, which are dependent on specific constraints regarding the boundary magnetic fields.

description: This thesis is a study of British Policy towards the Panjab between Hardinge's arrival in India as Governor-General and its annexation by his successor. The fundamental question to be answered is whether the British had a coherent plan to meet the problems posed by the lack of stability in the formerly useful buffer State between the Afghans and the British Empire in India. Policy was carried out through the North Western Agency and was much affected by the persons who held office there. Whether the Panjab was to remain an effective buffer State depended on the strength and disposition of the Darbar and the Chiefs. This in turn was affected by the Jagir and Revenue policies pursued by the British in the Jalandhar Doab as well as in the Lahore State. They have, therefore, been studied in some detail. The Summary Settlement and the other reforms accompanying it, which were effected after the Treaty of Bhairowal, in the Lahore State itself have been analysed. The consequences of their being effected by the British resident through the agency of British assistants when the old administrative machinery stood intact have been noted. The failure of policy as revealed in the course of the Second Sikh War has been traced. The circumstances that led Dalhousie to conclude that annexation was the only alternative left have been examined. The last Chapter in Cunningham's History of the Sikhs, which is a strong criticism of Hardinge's Policy towards the Panjab has been critically examined. The thesis has been written in the light of the Ripon, Peel and Broughton Papers in the British Museum, and of the Henry Lawrence and Broughton Papers in the India Office Library. Extensive use has also been made of the unpublished records in the India Office Library.

description: The aim of this study is to trace the 18th century political developments in the kingdom of Dahomey, and its central theme is Dahomey's attempt to create a politically stable and economically viable state. Economic questions are therefore important, but they have been treated mainly as contributory factors to the main question of political development. The introduction of the trans-Atlantic slave trade into the Aja country had, by the end of the 17th century, weakened the Aja institutions and created a political vacuum. Before the process had reached an incurable stage however, a group of Aja had founded a new state, later called Dahomey, designed to withstand the corrosive influences of the new economic system. By the bedining of the 18th century, Dahomey had grown sufficiently strong to fill the political vacuum being created by the decay of the traditional system. Between 1724 and 1727, Agaja, King of Dahomey, conquered and incorporated all the ancient Aja states. The Oyo immediately rose up in defence of the traditional system and the Europeans in defence of their economic activities. In 1730, Agaja submitted to Oyo and agreed to co-operate with the slave traders. After that Dahomey was forced to concentrate on economic and administrative reconstruction, rendered necessary by the Oyo ravages and practicable by the pax imposed by Oyo. By 1751 the reconstruction was virtually completed. After a brief period of prosperity, the inadequacies of the slave trade economy started to appear. Neither the European ships nor the supply of slaves were available in sufficiently large numbers. A deep economic depression started from about 1767 and despite all efforts, remained incurable in 1818, producing widespread dissatisfaction which finally led to the deposition of Adandozan in 1818 and the replacement of the Tegbesu line by another headed by Gezo.
title: The Law Relating to Landlord and Tenant in Nigeria.

description: The law relating to landlord and tenant is of special economic and social importance in contemporary Nigeria. At the same time a form of grant by the issue of "a right of occupancy" (analogous to a lease) has been the preferred means imposed by Statute for the public regulation of the use and alienation of land in the Northern Region which comprises three-quarters of the land area of Nigeria. Except in Lagos, an alien cannot acquire a better title to land than by way of a lease for up to a maximum period of 99 years. The Nigerian law of landlord and tenant is at the same time an extremely complex one, since the law comprises several distinct bodies of rules, traceable to different origins, which have to be compared and reconciled, both for academic study and for practical application. This law includes the common and statute law of England, Nigerian legislation amending the English law, special enactments such as the Acquisition of Land by Aliens Law of Eastern Nigeria) and many different systems of unwritten customary law. In this thesis an attempt has been made to restate the main principles of the applicable laws, and at the same time to make a jurisprudential comparison of the institutions, concept, rules and techniques of the different bodies of law, with a view to their explanation and harmonization. Chapter 1 gives a historical sketch of the laws applicable in Nigeria and describes the courts which operate these laws, Chapter 2 deals with the land laws of the country in general. Chapter 3 analyses the concept of the relation between landlord and tenant and distinguishes it from other similar relationships. Chapter U gives an account of the usual methods of creating tenancies and Chapter 5 examines the scope of the grant once a valid tenancy has been created. The duties imposed on landlords and tenants are dealt with in Chapter 6. Chapter 7 discusses the determination of tenancies while Chapter 8 examines the restrictions imposed upon landlords by two pieces of legislation which have been applied more or less in the same way as the English Rent Acts. The thesis concludes with a description of Succession to the rights and duties of landlords and tenants.

description: We study charge fluctuations in single-file dynamics with general charge measures. The exact finite-time distribution of charge fluctuations is obtained in terms of a dressing transformation acting on the finite-time distribution of particle fluctuations. The transformation is mapped to a simple substitution rule for corresponding full-counting statistics. By taking the asymptotics of the dressing transformation we analyze typical and large scale charge fluctuations. Typical charge fluctuations in equilibrium states with vanishing mean charge are anomalous while large charge fluctuations undergo first and second order dynamical phase transitions out of equilibrium.

Type material. Holotype ♂ (MHBU-ARA-2023-47-1) from CHINA: Yunnan Province: Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture, Longchuan County, 24.382458°N, 97.827372°E, alt. 1713m, 18 April 2023, leg. by Weihang Wang and Zhiyong Yang.
Etymology. The specific name “ scopulus ” is a Latin noun meaning “rock”. The coloration and shape of the species’ opisthosoma reminds the first author of a barnacle covered reef on the shore.
Diagnosis. This new species aligns with the diagnostic characteristics of the genus Tmarus Simon, 1875 but can be easily recognized by its scoop-shaped ITA. This new species resembles Tmarus byssinus Tang & Li, 2009 (Tang and Li 2009: 50, figs 1B–D) in having similar embolus and VTA, but can be distinguished by the longer and scoop-shaped ITA on tibia (vs. ITA relatively shorter), the short RTA (vs. RTA relatively longer), and the embolic tip expending to approximately 5 to 6 o’clock position (vs. tip at 3 o’clock in T. byssinus).
Description. Male holotype (Fig. 8): Measurements. Total length 4.89; carapace 2.20 long, 2.09 wide; opisthosoma 2.90 long, 1.50 wide; clypeus height 0.32; labium 0.50 long, 0.25 wide; sternum 1.20 long, 0.93 wide. Diameters and interdistances of eyes: AME 0.08, ALE 0.20, PME 0.08, PLE 0.19; AME–AME 0.16, AME–ALE 0.16, ALE–ALE 0.64, PME–PME 0.22, PME–PLE 0.33, PLE–PLE 1.04, ALE–PLE 0.20. Leg measurements: Ⅰ 11.78 (3.41, 1.09, 3.24, 2.78, 1.26), II 11.47 (3.34, 0.93, 3.10, 2.76, 1.34), III 5.53 (1.84, 0.49, 1.65, 0.94, 0.61), IV 5.78 (1.86, 0.60, 1.65, 1.00, 0.67); leg formula:1243. Coloration in ethanol. Carapace pale-yellow, with blackish-brown spots, a pair of blackish-brown, radial furrow with dark margin, cervical groove with a pair of blackish-brown marks. Eye field and chelicerae brown with dark spots. Endites and labium white to pale-yellow. Sternum yellow with dark spots. Legs pale-yellow. Opisthosoma dorsum black to dark-green, with symmetrical claret-red to dark-red spots and bilateral pair of off-white patterns; venter grey with wooden brown stripe medially.
Palp (Fig. 9). Tegulum flat; embolus long and thread-like, extending from 3 o’clock and turning clockwise to approximately 4 o’clock position, rotating little more than full circle; VTA hook-shaped; ITA scoop-shaped, with wrinkles on its lateral surface; RTA subconical, relatively short and dark.
Distribution. China (Yunnan).
Female. Unknown.

description: We show how the $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ topological index of a one-dimensional topological p-wave superconductor can be revealed when driving with a classical vector potential i.e. an electromagnetic wave, through the light-induced transition probabilities and the profile of the induced quasiparticles population. As a function of driving frequency $ω$, it is possible to obtain a measure of this topological invariant from the resonance envelope classifying the two distinct topological phases of the short-range Kitaev wire. We propose to probe the topological phase transition in the model through the responses of the global capacitance in the presence of the light field and through the Josephson current between the wire and the proximity coupled bulk superconductor. The system may also be implemented on the Bloch sphere allowing alternative ways to measure the $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological invariants through circuit or cavity quantum electrodynamics.

Year: 1962

description: This thesis describes the first ten years of general foreign trade with Japan. It was one of those formative periods in history which have an importance far exceeding their duration in time. This work forms a contribution to the knowledge of this era in the detailed workings of an Agency house, the import and export of gold and the effect of custom's duty evasion upon the trade statistics. It also provides new material with which to modify much of the existing thought on the commodity price rise, the sale of ships to the Japanese, the trade restriction policy, the necessity for government direction of commerce and the export potential of the Japanese economy. The relations between diplomat and merchant are also explored for the first time by the use of a commercial archive. The Jardine, Matheson archive, the Parkes Papers, the French diplomatic records and. Foreign Office Series No. 262 are, the author believes, utilized for the first time for a detailed study of this period. It is hoped in future to document this story Lore fully from Japanese sources. The author regrets that questions of finance and a university lecturing schedule in America prevented his checking the final draft against the original archive sources but he believes that in spite of errors in days of the month, call or page numbers that the footnote references are detailed enough to take the interested researcher to the source without difficulty.
