Fare spazio: una strategia di rappresentazione della violenza
Creators: name: VALENTINI, MATTEO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: In Tre saggi sull?immagine, Jean-Luc Nancy delinea un?interpretazione della violenza che non si limita a rilevare le sue potenzialit� materialmente distruttive, ma ne considera le implicazioni a livello etico ed estetico: secondo il filosofo francese la violenza consiste in un attentato alla capacit� rappresentativa della vittima. A seguito dell?atto violento, infatti, quest?ultima diviene incapace di immaginarsi al di l� del suo opprimente status di vittima. Dopo aver analizzato l?opera di James Nachtwey, utile a descrivere un approccio vittimario alla violenza, la tesi prosegue prendendo in considerazione artisti che cercano di riattivare un dispositivo di rappresentazione e un meccanismo di immaginazione il pi� possibile co-autoriali: l?espressione ?fare spazio? riassume questa tendenza a costruire uno spazio per le vittime di una violenza e, contemporaneamente, lasciare loro spazio per immaginare e per raggiungere una nuova soggettivit�. La tesi analizza diverse manifestazioni del ?fare spazio?: Teresa Margolles investiga l?autonomia della materia estrapolata dai cadaveri, alcuni artisti contro-monumentali (Jochen e Ester Gerz, Horst Hoheisel e Peter Eisenman) sollecitano la facolt� immaginativa dei loro spettatori in opere pubbliche dedicate alla Shoah, Regina Jos� Galindo basa le proprie performance sulla parziale incorporazione di testimonianze precedentemente raccolte, Milo Rau, nei suoi spettacoli e film, sviluppa un dispositivo di soggettivazione che permetta alle vittime di costruirsi un?identit� che vada al di l� della propria condizione. Nei lavori di questi artisti la violenza non � contestata sul piano dell?attivismo, della denuncia o della piet�, ma su un piano estetico, che mira a riattivare quella potenza che essa ha soppresso.

description: We explore transversals of finite index subgroups of finitely generated groups. We show that when $H$ is a subgroup of a rank $n$ group $G$ and $H$ has index at least $n$ in $G$ then we can construct a left transversal for $H$ which contains a generating set of size $n$ for $G$, and that the construction is algorithmic when $G$ is finitely presented. We also show that, in the case where $G$ has rank $n \leq3$, there is a simultaneous left-right transversal for $H$ which contains a generating set of size $n$ for $G$. We finish by showing that if $H$ is a subgroup of a rank $n$ group $G$ with index less than $3 \cdot 2^{n-1}$, and $H$ contains no primitive elements of $G$, then $H$ is normal in $G$ and $G/H \cong C_{2}^{n}$.

Anti-COVID-19 vaccine movements and the mental unity of the masses
Creators: name: Medina, Leonardo
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2022
Subjects: Health Care

description: It is useful to view the anti-vaccine movements in the light of current social psychology, psychoanalysis, and biomedical insights. The study of the formation, types, motivations and other characteristics of the psychological masses can guide us in the creation of effective vaccination strategies, important in the context of COVID-19. A search was carried out with the key terms "hesitancy", "refusal", "vaccination", "anti-vaccination", "movement", "social", "psychology", "COVID-19" between the years 2019 and 2022. The Scopus, Google Scholar, Taylor & Francis, Mendeley and PubMed Central databases were consulted. Three hundred and sixty-one documents were retrieved and after filtering, as shown in figure 2, Thirty-three were chosen for the construction of the document. This selected literature was correlated as much as possible with the landmark works of Le Bon and Freud on crowd psychology. The most relevant thing that is analyzed here is the very probable validity today of the ideas of the French doctor and psychologist and the Viennese psychoanalyst in the understanding of the anti-vaccine masses. Helpful ideas from these two authors are also found that serve to complement and improve strategies currently used to promote immunization, and some suggestions for these strategies are given at the end. Credible and influential authorities, government entities, legislation, and health providers must dispel misinformation. They must be supported by experts in marketing, graphic design, etc. so that the contents of pro-vaccination propaganda have a greater impact on people than the media used by the anti-vaccine masses. As expert professionals we must improve strategies to improve the acceptance of vaccination.

description: The present work provides well-posedness and exponential decay results for the Blackstock-Crighton-Kuznetsov equation arising in the modeling of nonlinear acoustic wave propagation in thermally relaxing viscous fluids. First, we treat the associated linear equation by means of operator semigroups. Moreover, we derive energy estimates which we will use in a fixed-point argument in order to obtain well-posedness of the Blackstock-Crighton-Kuznetsov equation. Using a classical barrier argument we prove exponential decay of solutions.

description: The problem of constructing semi-discrete integrable analogues of the Liouville type integrable PDE is discussed. We call the semi-discrete equation a discretization of the Liouville type PDE if these two equations have a common integral. For the Liouville type integrable equations from the well-known Goursat list for which the integrals of minimal order are of the order less than or equal to two we presented a list of corresponding semi-discrete versions. The list contains new examples of non-autonomous Darboux integrable chains.

description: Maximization of the path information entropy is a clear prescription for constructing models in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Here it is shown that, following this prescription under the assumption of arbitrary instantaneous constraints on position and velocity, a Lagrangian emerges which determines the most probable trajectory. Deviations from the probability maximum can be consistently described as slices in time by a Hamiltonian, according to a nonlinear Langevin equation and its associated Fokker-Planck equation. The connections unveiled between the maximization of path entropy and the Langevin/Fokker-Planck equations imply that missing information about the phase space coordinate never decreases in time, a purely information-theoretical version of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. All of these results are independent of any physical assumptions, and thus valid for any generalized coordinate as a function of time, or any other parameter. This reinforces the view that the Second Law is a fundamental property of plausible inference.

description: Oggi, la situazione delle lingue regionali solleva molti interrogativi, in particolare per quanto riguarda le zone linguistiche cardine e di transizione, come il dipartimento delle Alpi Marittime. Zona di contatto linguistico tra il francese, l'italiano e pi� precisamente il ligure - presente fino a Mentone, dove � in transizione con il provenzale - la valle della Roia � un territorio plurilingue e pluriculturale complesso : al di l� dei conflitti di identit� e dell'urgenza di salvaguardare le lingue attraverso la loro trasmissione in associazione, uno dei problemi pi� spinosi resta la classificazione linguistica delle lingue locali. Infatti, anche se il territorio della valle � ufficialmente considerato come una zona occitana, i linguisti si oppongono fermamente a un'appartenenza ligure-alpina. Da un punto di vista sociolinguistico, il nostro obiettivo sar� quello di andare oltre le considerazioni puramente linguistiche per far emergere le rappresentazioni dei parlanti della loro cultura e del parlare con loro.

description: The school climate has long been acknowledged as a protective factor for children’s and adolescents’ well-being. In fact, research has demonstrated that learning environments based on positive relationships among various social actors (students, teachers, and parents) are essential for enhancing students’ global self-evaluations and fostering their positive adaptation. However, few studies have examined the role teachers’ play in students’ self-esteem and future expectations. To overcome this limitation present in the literature, particularly in the Italian context, this study investigated the effect of teachers-students relationship on students’ self-esteem and their expectations for the future. The study employed a sample of 287 high school students. The mediational models included the quality of the teachers-students relationship as the independent variable, students’ self-esteem as the mediating variable, and students’ future expectations as the dependent variable. The results indicated total mediation: positive relationships between teachers and students had a positive association with students’ self-esteem which, in turn, had a positive association with students’ future expectations. The study emphasizes that socio-relational competencies are an essential component of teachers’ professionalism and are linked to the well-being of their students.

description: Histrionic personality disorder is a personality condition characterized by a pattern of excessive attention-seeking behavior, such as constantly seeking approval, being overly dramatic, and being overly concerned with physical appearance. People with histrionic personality disorder may be overly concerned with their appearance and may dress provocatively or in a way that is attention-getting. They may also be very emotional and may use their emotions to manipulate others. They may be overly concerned with others' opinions of them and may go to great lengths to be the center of attention. This can lead to difficulties in work and personal relationships. Histrionic personality disorder is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and social factors, and it is treated with a combination of therapy and medication.
Batch Informed Trees (BIT*): Sampling-based Optimal Planning via the Heuristically Guided Search of Implicit Random Geometric Graphs

description: In this paper, we present Batch Informed Trees (BIT*), a planning algorithm based on unifying graph- and sampling-based planning techniques. By recognizing that a set of samples describes an implicit random geometric graph (RGG), we are able to combine the efficient ordered nature of graph-based techniques, such as A*, with the anytime scalability of sampling-based algorithms, such as Rapidly-exploring Random Trees (RRT). BIT* uses a heuristic to efficiently search a series of increasingly dense implicit RGGs while reusing previous information. It can be viewed as an extension of incremental graph-search techniques, such as Lifelong Planning A* (LPA*), to continuous problem domains as well as a generalization of existing sampling-based optimal planners. It is shown that it is probabilistically complete and asymptotically optimal. We demonstrate the utility of BIT* on simulated random worlds in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}^8$ and manipulation problems on CMU's HERB, a 14-DOF two-armed robot. On these problems, BIT* finds better solutions faster than RRT, RRT*, Informed RRT*, and Fast Marching Trees (FMT*) with faster anytime convergence towards the optimum, especially in high dimensions.

description: The cross sections of e+e- to pi+pi-h_c at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 to 4.42 GeV were measured by the BESIII and the CLEO-c experiments. Resonant structures are evident in the e+e- to pi+pi-h_c line shape, the fit to the line shape results in a narrow structure at a mass of (4216\pm 18) MeV/c^2 and a width of (39\pm 32) MeV, and a possible wide structure of mass (4293\pm 9) MeV/c^2 and width (222\pm 67) MeV. Here the errors are combined statistical and systematic errors. This may indicate that the Y(4260) state observed in e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi has fine structure in it.

Distribution and trophic structure of benthic communities in a Patagonian fjord (Puyuhuapi Fjord, Southern Chile, 45�S).
Creators: name: ORTIZ, PAULA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: Benthic marine food webs, which recycle organic matter and sustain unique biodiversity, are an important component of estuarine Patagonian fjords. These benthic communities in the Chilean Patagonia are highly diverse as the spatial variation of its habitats and food sources. Environmental stress from glacier melt and river discharge are known drivers of benthic community dynamics; However, other pressures such as salmon farming may be strongly influencing over benthic community structure. Under the above conditions, this study focus in described the trophic structure of the subtidal benthic communities in the Puyuhuapi fjord (45�S), evaluate primary food sources that support these communities using stable isotope Bayesian analyses, and identify key benthic species based on carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes as potential tracer associated to fish farm wastes. The results showed that in the Puyuhuapi fjord different environmental and anthropogenic forces act as drivers of changes in the structure and composition of the benthic communities, such as allochthonous sources of organic matter (OM) coming mainly from glaciofluvial discharges with high contributions of terrestrial OM and salmon farming waste. Briefly, carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes analyses revealed that the highly variable isotopic niche widths respond to food supplies from marine and terrestrial OM. In addition, particulate and dissolved waste from salmon farming activities were found to modify isotopic composition ratios in many suspension feeders. Particularly, our results indicate high ?15N values in the sponge Cliona chilensis and the encrusting coral Incrustatus comauensis, which appear to be potential ecological indicators for evaluating stoichiometry imbalances and trace organic pollution sources in fjord environments.

description: Waste management is one of the challenges to address to promote environmental sustainability. The methods of composting and vermicomposting seem to be a possible ecological solution. A number of 90 participants answered a questionnaire aimed at detecting the relationship between risk perception about climate change, biospheric values, symbolic universes and attitudes towards the construction of a composting and vermicomposting plant near the respondent's living place. Participants answered an open-ended question aimed to obtain a deeper understanding of the perceived disadvantages in relation to the construction of the plant. Results highlight that positive attitudes towards the plant are related and predicted by both risk perception and biospheric values. Moreover, different levels of biospheric values were found between symbolic universes, consistently with a different world’s representation. The qualitative analysis produced 7 categories related to different kinds of disadvantages about the plant. Findings offer suggestions for future research.

description: A major theme in constraint-based modeling is unifying experimental data, such as biochemical information about the reactions that can occur in a system or the composition and localization of enzyme complexes, with highthroughput data including expression data, metabolomics, or DNA sequencing. The desired result is to increase predictive capability resulting in improved understanding of metabolism. The approach typically employed when only gene (or protein) intensities are available is the creation of tissue-specific models, which reduces the available reactions in an organism model, and does not provide an objective function for the estimation of fluxes, which is an important limitation in many modeling applications. We develop a method, flux assignment with LAD (least absolute deviation) convex objectives and normalization (FALCON), that employs metabolic network reconstructions along with expression data to estimate fluxes. In order to use such a method, accurate measures of enzyme complex abundance are needed, so we first present a new algorithm that addresses quantification of complex abundance. Our extensions to prior techniques include the capability to work with large models and significantly improved run-time performance even for smaller models, an improved analysis of enzyme complex formation logic, the ability to handle very large enzyme complex rules that may incorporate multiple isoforms, and depending on the model constraints, either maintained or significantly improved correlation with experimentally measured fluxes. FALCON has been implemented in MATLAB and ATS, and can be downloaded from: https://github.com/bbarker/FALCON. ATS is not required to compile the software, as intermediate C source code is available, and binaries are provided for Linux x86-64 systems. FALCON requires use of the COBRA Toolbox, also implemented in MATLAB.

We also prove that certain self-similar measures are absolutely continuous with smooth densities. These families of self-similar measures give higher dimensional analogues of Bernoulli convolutions on which absolute continuity can be established for contraction ratios in an open set.

title: Essays on corporate debt structure, leverage puzzle, competition and trade war
Creators: name: Yao, Yumei
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2023

description: The thesis examines the corporate debt structure and costs of various kinds of debt including the total debt, general bank debt and public debt as well as six types of specific debt components from the perspectives of three independent and related topics. First, I reveal the underlying sources of the leverage puzzle in terms of the unrated firms’ components of corporate debt structure. For the unrated firms, the leverage puzzle is significantly contributed by the revolving credit of bank debt as well as the bonds and notes of public debt, but unrated status weakens the puzzle since the unrated firms with high profits increase the two types of debt. For robustness, I consider another two factors that might impose effects on the relationship between profitability and debt: banks’ credit supplies and monetary policy. Second, I investigate how product market competition affects specific components of corporate debt and the costs of six types of debt. The analyses of various types of debt in fine detail reveal that product market competition generally reduces most of the debt. Nevertheless, competition usually mitigates the leverage puzzle of the negative relationship between profitability and specific types of debt. Besides, competition raises the credit spreads of all types of debt due to the bank monitoring of bank debt and the need for public debt for reducing external monitoring pressure. Third, I take the trade war between the U.S. and China intensified by Section 301 in 2018 as an exogenous shock and study a quasi-natural experiment of firms affected by the trade war. Using causal inference, I investigate the impact of the trade war on, competition, the corporate debt structure, and costs. I contribute to the debate on the benefits and losses due to the trade war by showing that although credit spreads decrease, the trade war did not alleviate competition, but rather it intensified competition and hampered debt financing.

description: This work aims to analyze the main international and national instruments for the fight against trafficking in human beings, especially minors. In particular, the tools adopted by International Organizations (UN), Regional Organizations (EU, AU, OAS, ASEAN and SAARC) and national instruments will be analyzed. Together, the main educational modalities present in different cultures of the world will also be analyzed, to hypothesize possible relationships between these and a risk most likely of falling victim to trafficking. To this end, some traditional cultural practices will also be analyzed shortly, to hypothesize whether even in this case it is possible to establish a relationship between these practices and the risk of victimization.

description: Traditional bibliometric indicators are only partially suitable for evaluating the scientific achievements of individual people. They are either not definitive or they are too complicated to use due to technical and methodological difficulties. There is still no definite evidence for the correlation between the citation rate (CPP) and the H-Index. In order to obtain a reliable assessment of what the relation is between the H-Index and the citation rate, we performed a study on 30 relevant scientists from the disciplines of "particle physics" and "neurology". The foregoing discussions on the different correlations revealed that the form and degree of correlation do not just vary considerably between the individual comparisons but also amongst the disciplines. In both disciplines, the correlation between the citation rate CPP and the H-Index was relatively low. We also found varying degrees of correlation here.
Pathways of Endocrine Disruption in the larval development of the mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis
Creators: name: MIGLIOLI, ANGELICA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: Endocrine Disruptors (EDCs) are a class of anthropogenic environmental contaminants that affect the endocrine systems of living organisms. The lack of knowledge of endocrine systems prevents the understanding of the effect of PEs in invertebrates. Accordingly, this thesis aims to address the issue of endocrine disruption in marine invertebrates by exploiting the larval development of the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. By applying the logic of the Adverse Outcome Pathway-AOP, the work in this thesis attempted to characterize the mechanism of action of the model EDCs BPA, TBBPA and TBT in mussel larvae and to identify plausible neuroendocrine pathways by which they induce their deleterious biological effect. The neuroendocrine elements regulating the biogenesis of the larval shell have been characterized and the morphogenetic process established as sensitive to neuroendocrine disruption. Plausible neuroendocrine AOPs that could be linked to the biological effects of the model EDCs have been identified. In addition, the possible AOP of TBT has established a plausible relationship between nuclear receptor signaling and the neuroendocrine system of mussel larvae. The results of this thesis represent essential evidence that will help and advance the current understanding of endocrine disruption mechanisms in invertebrate organisms.

description: We study the unwrapped Fukaya category of Lagrangian branes ending on a Legendrian knot. Our knots live at contact infinity in the cotangent bundle of a surface, the Fukaya category of which is equivalent to the category of constructible sheaves on the surface itself. Consequently, our category can be described as constructible sheaves with singular support controlled by the front projection of the knot. We use a theorem of Guillermou-Kashiwara-Schapira to show that the resulting category is invariant under Legendrian isotopies, and conjecture it is equivalent to the representation category of the Chekanov-Eliashberg differential graded algebra. We also find two connections to topological knot theory. First, drawing a positive braid closure on the annulus, the moduli space of rank-n objects maps to the space of local systems on a circle. The second page of the spectral sequence associated to the weight filtration on the pushforward of the constant sheaf is the (colored-by-n) triply-graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology. Second, drawing a positive braid closure in the plane, the number of points of our moduli spaces over a finite field with q elements recovers the lowest coefficient in 'a' of the HOMFLY polynomial of the braid closure.

description: The pandemic had a significant impact on the physical and mental health of the world population. In this context, higher levels of negative and positive symptoms related to psychosis have been observed. The present study aimed to verify, through a systematic review and meta-analysis, the evolution of negative and positive symptoms of schizophrenia during the pandemic period. The present work adhered to the PRISMA guidelines, and the GRADE and New Castle Ottawa bias scales were applied. Longitudinal studies from 2020-2021 that assessed negative and/or positive symptoms in persons diagnosed with schizophrenia before and during the pandemic period were searched on PubMed, PsycInfo and PsycArticles. The main results showed significant differences between the pre and the pandemic period regarding negative symptoms [95% CI -0.47 (-0.70, -0.24); Z = 4.01 (p 0.0001)]. In conclusion, the work showed a worsening of negative symptoms during the pandemic in persons with schizophrenia. The results suggested the importance, in the post-pandemic period, of planning psychosocial interventions for these individuals.

description: Transitions in the qualitative behavior of chemical reaction dynamics with a decrease in molecule number have attracted much attention. Here, a method based on a Markov process with a tridiagonal transition matrix is applied to the analysis of this transition in reaction dynamics. The transition to bistability due to the small-number effect and the mean switching time between the bistable states are analytically calculated in agreement with numerical simulations. In addition, a novel transition involving the reversal of the chemical reaction flow is found in the model under an external flow, and also in a three-component model. The generality of this transition and its correspondence to biological phenomena are also discussed.

description: An all-electrical torque differential magnetometry (also known as cantilever magnetometry) setup employing piezoelectric quartz tuning forks is demonstrated. The magnetometer can be operated under ambient conditions as well as low temperatures and pressures. It extends the allowed specimen mass range up to several 10 $μ$g without any significant reduction in the sensitivity. Operation under ambient conditions and a simple all-electrical design of the magnetometer should allow for an easy integration with other experimental setups. The uniaxial magnetic anisotropy of a 25 $μ$m diameter iron wire, measured under ambient conditions with a high signal to noise ratio, was found to be in good agreement with its literature value. Further applications of the technique are discussed.

description: Rate- and state-dependent friction law for velocity-step tests is analyzed from a thermodynamic point of view. A simple macroscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamic model with a single internal variable reproduces instantaneous jump and relaxation. Velocity weakening appears as a consequence of a plasticity related nonlinear coefficient. Permanent part of displacement corresponds to plastic strain, and relaxation effects are analogous to creep in thermodynamic rheology.

description: The asymptotic behaviour of the solutions of three-dimensional nonlinear elastodynamics in a thin plate is studied, as the thickness h of the plate tends to zero. Under appropriate scalings of the applied force and of the initial values in terms of h, it is shown that three-dimensional solutions of the nonlinear elastodynamic equation converge to solutions of the time-dependent von Kármán plate equation.

description: Numerous approximation algorithms for problems on unit disk graphs have been proposed in the literature, exhibiting a sharp trade-off between running times and approximation ratios. We introduce a variation of the known shifting strategy that allows us to obtain linear-time constant-factor approximation algorithms for such problems. To illustrate the applicability of the proposed variation, we obtain results for three well-known optimization problems. Among such results, the proposed method yields linear-time (4+eps)-approximation for the maximum-weight independent set and the minimum dominating set of unit disk graphs, thus bringing significant performance improvements when compared to previous algorithms that achieve the same approximation ratios. Finally, we use axis-aligned rectangles to illustrate that the same method may be used to derive linear-time approximations for problems on other geometric intersection graph classes.

Black Holes

description: Abstract In holography, the IR behavior of a quantum system at nonzero density is described by the near horizon geometry of an extremal charged black hole. It is commonly believed that for systems on S3, this near horizon geometry is AdS2 × S3. We show that this is not the case: generic static, nonspherical perturbations of AdS2 × S3 blow up at the horizon, showing that it is not a stable IR fixed point. We then construct a new near horizon geometry which is invariant under only SO(3) (and not SO(4)) symmetry and show that it is stable to SO(3)-preserving perturbations (but not in general). We also show that an open set of nonextremal, SO(3)-invariant charged black holes develop this new near horizon geometry in the limit T → 0. Our new IR geometry still has AdS2 symmetry, but it is warped over a deformed sphere. We also construct many other near horizon geometries, including some with no rotational symmetries, but expect them all to be unstable IR fixed points.
A Planar Jitternig-Jets Pattern in Core-Collapse Supernova Explosions

description: We use 3D hydrodynamical numerical simulations and show that jittering bipolar jets that power core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosions channel further accretion onto the newly born neutron star (NS) such that consecutive bipolar jets tend to be launched in the same plane as the first two bipolar jet episodes. In the jittering-jets model the explosion of CCSNe is powered by jittering jets launched by an intermittent accretion disk formed by accreted gas having a stochastic angular momentum. The first two bipolar jets episodes eject mass mainly from the plane defined by the two bipolar axes. Accretion then proceeds from the two opposite directions normal to that plane. Such a flow has an angular momentum in the direction of the same plane. If the gas forms an accretion disk, the jets will be launched in more or less the same plane as the one defined by the jets of the first two launching episodes. The outflow from the core of the star might have a higher mass flux in the plane define by the jets. In giant stellar progenitors we don't expect this planar morphology to survive as the massive hydrogen envelope will tend to make the explosion more spherical. In SNe types Ib and Ic, where there is no massive envelope, the planar morphology might have an imprint on the supernova remnant. We speculate that planar jittering-jets are behind the morphology of the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant.
