description: BIOGEOGRAPHY OF TERRESTRICYTHERE
 Living populations (represented by large numbers of individuals) of Terrestricythere species have only been found in two parts of the world: the coastal regions of the NW Pacific (Kuril Islands and near Vladivostok) (Schornikov, 1969, 1980) and the coast of southern England (as described herein). As discussed above, we do not consider the record of two specimens from a lake in France (Scharf & Keyser, 1991) to be adequate evidence of a viable living population.

 This presents us with an interesting problem: do the English populations represent a hitherto unrecognized component of the native British fauna, or an invasion of an alien species? The fact that Terrestricythere has never previously been reported in the British Isles (in spite of more than a century and a half of collecting on British coasts by many ostracod specialists) could be explained by its unusual habitat, which is likely to have been ignored by those seeking ostracods, but it could also be an indication that it has been introduced to the area relatively recently. The northwest Pacific region is home to two known Terrestricythere species and, as little ostracod research has been done in that area, it could harbour more, perhaps being the centre of distribution of this genus. Its ability to survive in merely damp conditions for weeks or months would clearly be advantageous to transport by migrating birds (as has been proposed for cypridoidean ostracods with resting eggs; see, e.g. Horne & Smith, 2004), which, as we have already noted, would help to explain the isolated records in France and at Porlock.
Transport by human activity is another possibility, and we speculate that the transfer of amphibious mil-

Whether T. elisabethae is a rare British endemic or a potentially damaging invader, it deserves greater attention than it has hitherto received.

Subjects: Grapevine, Vitaceae family, Eurasian group, phenological stages, agroecological conditions

description: Grapevines, belonging to the Vitaceae family, are of paramount significance in the world of viticulture. This family encompasses a diverse array of species, predominantly tropical or subtropical, spanning across 14 to 16 genera and comprising over 900 species. Within the Vitis genus, we encounter a notable diversity of 80 species classified into two subgenera: Muscadinia and Euvitis. The Euvitis subgenus, particularly, garners attention as it encompasses three distinct groups—American, Asian, and Eurasian. The Eurasian group, dwelling in the Mediterranean basin, holds global prominence in viticulture, with widespread distribution in temperate regions of Europe, North America, and Asia. These grapevines undergo an annual developmental cycle, encompassing nine distinct growth stages, commencing from bud break and culminating in leaf fall, heralding winter dormancy. The productivity of grapevines hinges on the interplay of genetic attributes specific to vine varieties and the influence of agroecological factors on the phenological phases of development. This paper delves into the intricate world of grapevines, their taxonomic diversity, and annual growth cycle, shedding light on the pivotal factors that shape their productivity.

description: In the German government (BMBF) funded project Verbmobil, a semantic formalism Language for Underspecified Discourse Representation Structures (LUD) is used which describes several DRSs and allows for underspecification. Dealing with Japanese poses challenging problems. In this paper, a treatment of multiple discourse relation constructions on the sentential level is shown, which are common in Japanese but cause a problem for the formalism,. The problem is to distinguish discourse relations which take the widest scope compared with other scope-taking elements on the one hand and to have them underspecified among each other on the other hand. We also state a semantic constraint on the resolution of multiple discourse relations which seems to prevail over the syntactic c-command constraint.

description: To make an interactive guidance mechanism for document retrieval systems, we developed a user-interface which presents users the visualized map of topics at each stage of retrieval process. Topic words are automatically extracted by frequency analysis and the strength of the relationships between topic words is measured by their co-occurrence. A major factor affecting a user's impression of a given topic word graph is the balance between common topic words and specific topic words. By using frequency classes for topic word extraction, we made it possible to select well-balanced set of topic words, and to adjust the balance of common and specific topic words.

description: We prove two results on arithmetic quantum chaos for dihedral Maass forms, both of which are manifestations of Berry's random wave conjecture: Planck scale mass equidistribution and an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment. For level $1$ forms, these results were previously known for Eisenstein series and conditionally on the generalised Lindelof hypothesis for Hecke-Maass eigenforms. A key aspect of the proofs is bounds for certain mixed moments of $L$-functions that imply hybrid subconvexity.

description: The immune system has a critical influence on the maintenance of physiological homeostasis. To date, immunological dysfunction, particularly reduced natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxic activity in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) patients has been consistently observed. CFS/ME is a severely debilitating illness, with no known pathomechanism and diagnosis is made according to symptom specific criteria. CFS/ME is characterised by persistent and unexplained fatigue, alongside a range of symptoms, including: post-exertional neuroimmune exhaustion, neurological, immune, gastrointestinal, genitourinary and energy metabolism impairments. However, a symptom specific criterion provides complications for diagnosis, particularly as symptoms may be qualitative. CFS/ME is also a heterogeneous illness, with patients experiencing moderate to severe symptoms. CFS/ME patients with moderate symptoms are those who have reduced mobility and ability to perform their routine daily activities. CFS/ME patients with severe symptoms are usually homebound and/or restricted to a wheelchair. The debilitating nature of CFS/ME creates an economic burden and contributes largely to health resources, affecting CFS/ME patients as well as the wider community. In Australia, the annual cost to the community per CFS/ME patient, with a prevalence rate of 0.2% is $729.3 million (based on 2012 estimates and earlier prevalence studies).

Literacy

description: The purpose of this post-qualitative study was to examine the rhizomatic functioning of youth’s engagements with literacy in a 7th grade English Language Arts classroom. I argued normed expectations of students’ engagement with literacy in schools imposes hegemonic control over students’ literacy learning, thus devaluing students’ in-the-moment, affective engagement. Rhizomatic theory was used to explore the ways students aligned to or veered from expected literacy norms as conceptualized through schooled literacy.
      The study took place during one academic semester between January-June in a New York City public middle school in Harlem. Data was produced through observations, exchanges (informal and formal interviews; verbal and written conversations), artifacts, and a researcher journal. A rhizomatic analysis was conducted to first identify the ideal expectation for literacy learning in the classroom as established through national, state, and local entities and then to follow deviations, or lines of flight, from these expected norms. Particular attention was paid to networked assemblages of participants (human and non-human) and the affective intensities, or desires that produce changes to an event or interaction, produced through these networks. The analysis was extended to consider these assemblages and affective intensities in light of the normed expectations for literacy learning, thus moving the rhizomatic analysis to what might become possible by examining difference.
      Findings are presented through the lines of flight and affective intensities that were produced through students’ engagements with literacy learning. These included forms of play, spontaneous peer-to-peer assistance, visceral response, and enacted agency. I discuss these intensities as unsanctioned engagement and explore how sanctioning such engagement provides more equitable opportunities for students to actively interact and achieve success as literacy learners. I argue such engagement is inherent to who youth are and who they are becoming. Because of this, how educators and researchers understand literacy learning and one’s engagement with literacy is extremely important for youth’s experiences and success in schooling. I conclude with implications for practice and research that work to actively transform conceptions of literacy instruction, theory, and research.

description: We introduce a generalization of Selman's P-selectivity that yields a more flexible notion of selectivity, called (polynomial-time) multi-selectivity, in which the selector is allowed to operate on multiple input strings. Since our introduction of this class, it has been used to prove the first known (and optimal) lower bounds for generalized selectivity-like classes in terms of EL_2, the second level of the extended low hierarchy. We study the resulting selectivity hierarchy, denoted by SH, which we prove does not collapse. In particular, we study the internal structure and the properties of SH and completely establish, in terms of incomparability and strict inclusion, the relations between our generalized selectivity classes and Ogihara's P-mc (polynomial-time membership-comparable) classes. Although SH is a strictly increasing infinite hierarchy, we show that the core results that hold for the P-selective sets and that prove them structurally simple also hold for SH. In particular, all sets in SH have small circuits; the NP sets in SH are in Low_2, the second level of the low hierarchy within NP; and SAT cannot be in SH unless P = NP. Finally, it is known that P-Sel, the class of P-selective sets, is not closed under union or intersection. We provide an extended selectivity hierarchy that is based on SH and that is large enough to capture those closures of the P-selective sets, and yet, in contrast with the P-mc classes, is refined enough to distinguish them.

description: Glomalin is a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and the soil fraction containing glomalin is correlated with soil aggregation. Thus, factors potentially influencing glomalin production could be of relevance for this ecosystem process and for understanding AM fungal physiology. Previous work indicated that glomalin production in AM fungi may be a stress response, or related to suboptimal mycelium growth. We show here that environmental stress can enhance glomalin production in the mycelium of the AM fungus Glomus intraradices. We applied NaCl and glycerol in different intensities to the medium in which the fungus was grown in vitro, causing salinity stress and osmotic stress, respectively. As a third stress type, we simulated grazing on the extraradical hyphae of the fungus by mechanically injuring the mycelium by clipping. NaCl caused a strong increase, while the clipping treatment led to a marginally significant increase in glomalin production. Even though salinity stress includes osmotic stress, we found substantially different responses in glomalin production due to the NaCl and the glycerol treatment, as glycerol addition did not cause any response. Thus, our results indicate that glomalin is involved in inducible stress responses in AM fungi for salinity, and possibly grazing stress.

description: In a model with an extra $U(1)$ gauge to SM gauge group, we have shown the allowed region of masses of extra gauge boson and the dark matter which is the lightest one among other right-handed Majorana fermions present in the model. To obtain this region, we have used bounds coming from constraints on active-sterile neutrino masses and mixing from various oscillation experiments, constraint on dark matter relic density obtained by PLANCK together with the constraint on the extra gauge boson mass and its gauge coupling recently obtained by ATLAS Collaboration at LHC. From the allowed regions, it is possible to get some lower bounds on the masses of the extra gauge boson and the dark matter and considering those values it is possible to infer what could be the spontaneous symmetry breaking scale of an extra $U(1)$ gauge symmetry.

Monuments--Conservation and restoration

description: Since 2016 the United States has been embroiled in a debate about what types of monuments should be displayed on our publicly accessible land. As of now, the debate has involved monuments to Confederate soldiers and generals, former presidents, scientists, explorers and other historic figures whose actions are now considered to be out of step with current social norms. While the public debate has, so far, mostly focused on the existence of publicly owned and displayed monuments, many privately owned monuments that are publicly accessible have also become enmeshed in the fight to remove Confederate symbols from public view. Many private institutions have chosen to remove their Confederate monuments and memorials, but the question remains of what to do with the monuments once they have been removed. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how preservationists can assist private institutions in the curation and reinterpretation of their Confederate monuments, once the decision to remove them has been made. This work is grounded in the analysis of the changing interpretation and significance of monuments to difficult histories, as is evidenced by the experiences of South Africa, Estonia and Hungary. It then takes a more focused view of the American Confederate monument dilemma. The scope of this exploration will be limited to expounding upon the preservation and interpretive options available to private institutions, once they have decided to remove or move their Confederate monuments. While recognizing the controversial nature of this subject, this is an objective and analytical study of preservation.

description: This paper seeks to draw the issue of sexual violence in prison (SVP) closer to the principles and practices of the human rights system, with a particular focus on nonState actor SVP and the right to freedom from torture and other inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. Through an exploration of the response to nonState actor SVP in prisons in England and Wales, a series of procedural and systematic issues are identified that obstruct the fulfilment of the strict due diligence obligations under the Convention Against Torture and Article 3 of the European Court of Human Rights. Despite the presence of these due diligence failings, the paper finds that independent institutions that ought to be conveying concern are neglecting to do so and, as such, are contributing to the veiling of SVP. It is thus argued that understanding and framing nonState actor SVP as a violation of the supposedly nonderogable right to freedom from torture and other inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment when the State fails to exercise due diligence represents a fertile avenue for drawing much needed attention to SVP, amplifying the gravity of SVP, and heightening the degree of priority placed upon its resolution.

description: In this paper we propose a new type of random CSP model, called Model RB, which is a revision to the standard Model B. It is proved that phase transitions from a region where almost all problems are satisfiable to a region where almost all problems are unsatisfiable do exist for Model RB as the number of variables approaches infinity. Moreover, the critical values at which the phase transitions occur are also known exactly. By relating the hardness of Model RB to Model B, it is shown that there exist a lot of hard instances in Model RB.

description: We discuss the perturbative decay of the energy density of a non standard inflaton field $ρ_ϕ$ and the corresponding creation of the energy density of the relativistic fields $ρ_r$ at the end of inflation, in the perfect fluid description, refining some concepts and providing some new computations. In particular, the process is characterized by two fundamental time scales. The first one, $t_\text{max}$, occurs when the energy density $ρ_r$ reaches its largest value, slightly after the beginning of the reheating phase. The second one, $t_\text{reh}$, is the time in which the reheating is completely realized and the thermalization is attained. By assuming a non-instantaneous reheating phase, we are able to derive the energy densities and the temperatures of the produced relativistic bath at $t_\text{max}$ and $t_\text{reh}$, as well as the value of the corresponding horizon entropy $S_\text{hor}$, for an Equation-of-State (EoS) parameter $w\ne 0$.

Using textual clues to improve metaphor processing

description: In this paper, we propose a textual clue approach to help metaphor detection, in order to improve the semantic processing of this figure. The previous works in the domain studied the semantic regularities only, overlooking an obvious set of regularities. A corpus-based analysis shows the existence of surface regularities related to metaphors. These clues can be characterized by syntactic structures and lexical markers. We present an object oriented model for representing the textual clues that were found. This representation is designed to help the choice of a semantic processing, in terms of possible non-literal meanings. A prototype implementing this model is currently under development, within an incremental approach allowing step-by-step evaluations. \footnote{This work takes part in a research project sponsored by the AUPELF-UREF (Francophone Agency For Education and Research)}

description: We give examples of derived schemes $X$ and a line bundle $\Ls$ on the truncation $tX$ so that $\Ls$ does not extend to the original derived scheme $X$. In other words the pullback map $\Pic(X) \to \Pic(tX)$ is not surjective. Our examples have the further property that, while their truncations are projective hypersurfaces, they fail to have any nontrivial line bundles, and hence they are not quasi-projective.

Supramolecular reactivity in the gas phase: investigating the intrinsic properties of non-covalent complexes

Subjects: subject: 500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik::540 Chemie

description: The high vacuum inside a mass spectrometer offers unique conditions to broaden our view on the reactivity of supramolecules. Because dynamic exchange processes between complexes are efficiently suppressed, the intrinsic and intramolecular reactivity of the complexes of interest is observed. Besides this, the significantly higher strength of non-covalent interactions in the absence of competing solvent allows processes to occur that are unable to compete in solution. The present review highlights a series of examples illustrating different aspects of supramolecular gas-phase reactivity ranging from the dissociation and formation of covalent bonds in non-covalent complexes through the reactivity in the restricted inner phase of container molecules and step-by-step mechanistic studies of organocatalytic reaction cycles to cage contraction reactions, processes induced by electron capture, and finally dynamic molecular motion within non-covalent complexes as unravelled by hydrogen–deuterium exchange processes performed in the gas phase.

Urban fiction

description: As popular genre of novels predominantly written by African American and Latinx authors, street fiction is often characterized in terms of the sex, violence, and illicit activities present in its narratives set in low socioeconomic urban communities across the United States. Street fiction’s popularity has soared since the early 2000s, and several authors who formerly self-published their novels and sold them through grassroots channels now sign lucrative contracts with major publishers. The purpose of this study is to offer a recontextualized description of street fiction exploring its ideological, political and cultural connections to other spheres of influence including: the tradition of the American novel, African American literary history and theories, popular fictions, and hip hop. Using critical discourse analysis and cultural studies as combined methodologies, I offer a dialogic analysis of three themes present in four examples of the genre, namely: 1) ambivalence between “straight” lives and “street” lives, 2) the interplay between constructions of “self” and “other” in street fiction, and 3) the dynamics between the “real” and the “fantastic” elements in the novels. I offer a concluding analysis of how the literacy practices surrounding street fiction dovetail with key conversations in the field of English, including the definition of literature, the relationships among authors, readers and texts, the purpose of reading and writing fiction, and the notion of books as both cultural artifacts and commodities.

description: The stability of radiance measurements taken by the Sky Quality Meter (SQM)was tested under rapidly changing temperature conditions during exposure to a stable light field in the laboratory. The reported radiance was found to be negatively correlated with temperature, but remained within 7% of the initial reported radiance over a temperature range of -15 °C to 35 °C, and during temperature changes of -33 °C/h and +70 °C/h.This is smaller than the manufacturer’s quoted unit-to-unit systematic uncertainty of 10%,indicating that the temperature compensation of the SQM is adequate under expected outdoor operating conditions.

description: Globalisation has become a significant economic phenomenon since the late nineteenth century and foreign direct investment (FDI) has been an important driving force of globalization. FDI has become an important competitive strategy for enterprises to invest all over the world to access markets, technology, resources and talent. On the other hand, host governments consider FDI as crucial to the development of their economies, exports, employment opportunities, and competitiveness. China, in this increasingly competing world economy, has absorbed enormous amounts of FDI inflows since the economic reforms introduced in 1978. This thesis studies FDI and its impact in China during the period ranging from 1978 to 2005. The thesis makes valuable contributions to the theory of FDI as well as significant contributions to empirical analysis of the impact of FDI in China. It presents extension to various FDI theories and the impact of FDI on economic development. The thesis also empirically analyses FDI location-specific determinants and the impact of FDI on domestic investment, income distribution, consumption and tourism in China by using stationary multi-equation system of time series models together with data for the period 1978 to 2005. The results show that FDI has played an important role in the Chinese economy but does come with both benefits and costs. The findings of the thesis suggest that China should develop appropriate and effective economic development policies and regulations to ensure positive FDI externalities...

description: Can easy sets only have easy certificate schemes? In this paper, we study the class of sets that, for all NP certificate schemes (i.e., NP machines), always have easy acceptance certificates (i.e., accepting paths) that can be computed in polynomial time. We also study the class of sets that, for all NP certificate schemes, infinitely often have easy acceptance certificates. In particular, we provide equivalent characterizations of these classes in terms of relative generalized Kolmogorov complexity, showing that they are robust. We also provide structural conditions---regarding immunity and class collapses---that put upper and lower bounds on the sizes of these two classes. Finally, we provide negative results showing that some of our positive claims are optimal with regard to being relativizable. Our negative results are proven using a novel observation: we show that the classical ``wide spacing'' oracle construction technique yields instant non-bi-immunity results. Furthermore, we establish a result that improves upon Baker, Gill, and Solovay's classical result that NP \neq P = NP \cap coNP holds in some relativized world.

Foreground and Background Lexicons and Word Sense Disambiguation for Information Extraction

description: Lexicon acquisition from machine-readable dictionaries and corpora is currently a dynamic field of research, yet it is often not clear how lexical information so acquired can be used, or how it relates to structured meaning representations. In this paper I look at this issue in relation to Information Extraction (hereafter IE), and one subtask for which both lexical and general knowledge are required, Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). The analysis is based on the widely-used, but little-discussed distinction between an IE system's foreground lexicon, containing the domain's key terms which map onto the database fields of the output formalism, and the background lexicon, containing the remainder of the vocabulary. For the foreground lexicon, human lexicography is required. For the background lexicon, automatic acquisition is appropriate. For the foreground lexicon, WSD will occur as a by-product of finding a coherent semantic interpretation of the input. WSD techniques as discussed in recent literature are suited only to the background lexicon. Once the foreground/background distinction is developed, there is a match between what is possible, given the state of the art in WSD, and what is required, for high-quality IE.
