Year: 1948
Subjects: Livestock Production/Industries

description: Meat is one of the most important primary products in which Australia has a large international trade. As in the case of most other commodities, the demand for meat and meat products is far greater than the present world position of supply, with the result that all Australian meat exports, whether in the form of beef, mutton, lamb or pork, have a ready market. It is proposed to review briefly the overseas position and then to examine the latest available information on trends in the production and consumption of meat within Australia, with particular reference, finally, to New South Wales.

description: In this paper, we explore the connection between the curvature of the background De Sitter space-time with the spectroscopic study of entanglement of two atoms. Our set up is in the context of an Open Quantum System (OQS), where the two atoms, each having two energy levels and represented by Pauli spin tensor operators projected along any arbitrary direction. The system mimics the role of a pair of freely falling Unruh De-Witt detectors, which are allowed to non-adiabatically interact with a conformally coupled massless probe scalar field which has the role of background thermal bath. The effective dynamics of this combined system takes into account of the non-adiabatic interaction, which is commonly known as the Resonant Casimir Polder Interaction (RCPI) with the thermal bath. Our analysis reveals that the RCPI of two stable entangled atoms in the quantum vacuum states in OQS depends on the de Sitter space-time curvature relevant to the temperature of the thermal bath felt by the static observer. We also find that, in OQS, RCPI produces a new significant contribution appearing in the effective Hamiltonian of the total system and thermal bath under consideration. We find that the Lamb Shift is characterized by a decreasing inverse square power-law behavior, $L^{-2}$, when inter atomic Euclidean distance, $L$, is much larger than a characteristic length scale, $k$, which is the inverse surface gravity of the background De Sitter space. If the background space-time would have been Minkowskian this shift decreases as, $L^{-1}$, and is independent of temperature. Thus, we establish a connection between the curvature of the De Sitter space-time with the Lamb Shift spectroscopy.

description: A manifestly N=2 supersymmetric coset formalism is applied to analyse the "fermionic" extensions of N=2 $a=4$ and $a=-2$ KdV hierarchies. Both these hierarchies can be obtained from a manifest N=2 coset construction. This coset is defined as the quotient of some local but non-linear superalgebra by a $\hat{U(1)}$ subalgebra. Three superextensions of N=2 KdV hierarchy are proposed, among which one seems to be entirely new.

description: The electronic structure of vortices in a type II superconductor is analyzed within the quasi-classical Eilenberger framework. The possible origin of a sixfold ``star'' shape of the local density of states, observed by scanning tunneling microscope experiments on NbSe$_2$, is examined in the light of the three effects; the anisotropic pairing, the vortex lattice, and the anisotropic density of states at the Fermi surface. Outstanding features of split parallel rays of this star are well explained in terms of an anisotropic $s$-wave pairing. This reveals a rich internal electronic structure associated with a vortex core.

description: We study the joint estimation of multiple Rabi frequencies in a multilevel system. By analytically identifying the optimal probe state and the optimal measurement, we obtain the highest precision limit for the joint estimation of multiple Rabi frequencies. We show that the joint estimation does not always outperform the separate estimation. In different regimes the joint estimation can either outperform or underperform the separate estimation. We further show that if additional adaptive quantum controls are allowed then the advantage of the joint estimation over the separate estimation can be reestablished.
Achieving Maintenance Excellence in Manufacturing Through Integration of Lean Six Sigma and Proactive Approaches: A Case Study

subject: Mechanical engineering asset management

description: Achieving maintenance excellence is essential for en-hancing operational efficiency, reducing unplanned downtime, and maintaining the performance of critical manufacturing sys-tems. This study examines the integration of Lean Six Sigma (LSS) with proactive maintenance strategies—Risk-Based Inspection (RBI), Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM), and Total Pro-ductive Maintenance (TPM)—to improve equipment reliability, extend asset lifespan, and optimize resource utilization. While LSS targets inefficiencies through continuous improvement, RBI, RCM, and TPM offer data-driven, proactive solutions for minimiz-ing downtime and enhancing system performance. Despite their successes, the combined application of these methodologies in as-set management remains largely unexplored. This paper intro-duces a novel framework that integrates LSS, RBI, RCM, and TPM to optimize asset performance by improving reliability, avail-ability, maintainability, and safety (RAMS), while reducing risks and costs. The framework includes well-defined objectives and key performance indicators (KPIs) to facilitate data-driven decision-making and encourage ongoing improvements. Validated through a case study of a major shutdown maintenance project at a feed-water pumping station in a petrochemical company in Egypt, the framework demonstrated significant outcomes, including a 60% reduction in non-value-added time, a 43% decrease in downtime, and a 22% improvement in shutdown efficiency (from 27% to 49%). These results underscore the synergistic potential of inte-grating LSS, RBI, RCM, and TPM to optimize maintenance prac-tices and enhance operational performance. This study provides valuable insights for both academics and industry professionals seeking to align maintenance strategies with organizational objec-tives and drive sustainable, long-term improvements.
Land use, exploration and the mineral industry in northwest British Columbia - a strategic approach
Creators: name: Harivel, Colin
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Northwest B.C. is unusually endowed with mineral potential and deposits. In spite of this the area is presently underexplored. Pressures from land use uncertainty, coupled with a fundamentally changed financial structure for venture capital financing, have combined to keep exploration expenditures in the region at low levels. Strategic, long-term approaches to land use issues are proposed for the mineral industry segment which chooses to remain in B.C. The promise of the Commission on Resources and Environment is highlighted and a strategy base is outlined which emphasizes the importance of the primary industries to hinterland communities in the northwest. Industry-wide pro-activity is strongly advocated as an important strategic element.
Knot concordance, Whitney towers and L^2 signatures

description: We construct many examples of non-slice knots in 3-space that cannot be distinguished from slice knots by previously known invariants. Using Whitney towers in place of embedded disks, we define a geometric filtration of the 3-dimensional topological knot concordance group. The bottom part of the filtration exhibits all classical concordance invariants, including the Casson-Gordon invariants. As a first step, we construct an infinite sequence of new obstructions that vanish on slice knots. These take values in the L-theory of skew fields associated to certain {\em universal} groups. Finally, we use the dimension theory of von Neumann algebras to define an L^2 signature and use this to detect the first unknown step in our obstruction theory.

description: Exact solvability is claimed for nonlinear replica sigma models derived in the context of random matrix theories. Contrary to other approaches reported in the literature, the framework outlined does not rely on traditional "replica symmetry breaking" but rests on a previously unnoticed exact relation between replica partition functions and Painleve transcendents. While expected to be applicable to matrix models of arbitrary symmetries, the method is used to treat fermionic replicas for the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE), chiral GUE (symmetry classes A and AIII in Cartan classification) and Ginibre's ensemble of complex non-Hermitean random matrices. Further applications are briefly discussed.

description: This paper proposes multiscale convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep metric learning for bioacoustic classification, under low training data conditions. The proposed CNN is characterized by the utilization of four different filter sizes at each level to analyze input feature maps. This multiscale nature helps in describing different bioacoustic events effectively: smaller filters help in learning the finer details of bioacoustic events, whereas, larger filters help in analyzing a larger context leading to global details. A dynamic triplet loss is employed in the proposed CNN architecture to learn a transformation from the input space to the embedding space, where classification is performed. The triplet loss helps in learning this transformation by analyzing three examples, referred to as triplets, at a time where intra-class distance is minimized while maximizing the inter-class separation by a dynamically increasing margin. The number of possible triplets increases cubically with the dataset size, making triplet loss more suitable than the softmax cross-entropy loss in low training data conditions. Experiments on three different publicly available datasets show that the proposed framework performs better than existing bioacoustic classification frameworks. Experimental results also confirm the superiority of the triplet loss over the cross-entropy loss in low training data conditions

description: Local magnetic relaxation measurements in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$ crystals show evidence for plastic vortex-creep associated with the motion of dislocations in the vortex lattice. This creep mechanism governs the vortex dynamics in a wide range of temperatures and fields below the melting line and above the field corresponding to the peak in the ''fishtail'' magnetization. In this range the activation energy $U_{pl}$, which decreases with field, drops below the elastic (collective) creep activation energy, $U_{el}$, which increases with field. A crossover in flux dynamics from elastic to plastic creep is shown to be the origin of the fishtail in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$.

Occlusion-Robust MVO: Multimotion Estimation Through Occlusion Via Motion Closure

description: Visual motion estimation is an integral and well-studied challenge in autonomous navigation. Recent work has focused on addressing multimotion estimation, which is especially challenging in highly dynamic environments. Such environments not only comprise multiple, complex motions but also tend to exhibit significant occlusion. Previous work in object tracking focuses on maintaining the integrity of object tracks but usually relies on specific appearance-based descriptors or constrained motion models. These approaches are very effective in specific applications but do not generalize to the full multimotion estimation problem. This paper presents a pipeline for estimating multiple motions, including the camera egomotion, in the presence of occlusions. This approach uses an expressive motion prior to estimate the SE (3) trajectory of every motion in the scene, even during temporary occlusions, and identify the reappearance of motions through motion closure. The performance of this occlusion-robust multimotion visual odometry (MVO) pipeline is evaluated on real-world data and the Oxford Multimotion Dataset.

Environmental risk management in mine development

Year: 2009

description: Techniques originally developed for hazardous waste containment design and site remediation have been adapted to the evaluation of waste disposal in open-pit mining. The method is formal and explicit yet cost effective, and ensures that development decisions are optimized and defensible. This approach to risk management is based on probabilistic risk assessment and decision analysis techniques. The method facilitates evaluation of the interrelationships between mine development decisions, the trade-offs amongst possible consequences, the uncertainty in predicting consequences, and the flexibility to respond to changing conditions. The method has been applied, among other applications, to the evaluation of overall waste disposal systems for a major mine, the rational determination of reclamation bond values, and the design of close-out measures for a uranium mine. The approach provides a framework which links technical design criteria and relationships with costs and issues of environmental impact and public and regulatory acceptance.

Ibn A‘tham's History: Transmission and Translation in Islamicate Written Culture, 290-873/902-1468

description: This dissertation is a study of the composition and reception of two chronicles written in Arabic in the first decades of the fourth century of the Islamic hijrī era (the tenth century of the current era). They were written by a little-known scholar usually called Abū Muḥammad Aḥmad ibn A‘tham al-Kūfī. Although no complete copy of the Arabic histories survives, the history was widely circulated in Persian. In other words, unlike most authors, Ibn A‘tham became somewhat more famous as his text circulated further. This work sets out to explain how this came to happen in two parts. The first part examines the composition of Ibn A‘tham’s history, arguing on biobibliographical, paleographical, and textual evidence that Ibn A‘tham must have belonged to the first decades of the fourth/tenth century. This argument serves as prelude to the second part, in which I show how Ibn A‘tham’s history developed over time, watching as selective readings and manuscript damage led to reduced engagements with Ibn A‘tham. Here, by examining how other historians quoted Ibn A‘tham, I track the logics of writing and reading that guided their encounters. The dissertation culminates in the sixth chapter, in which I provide a conceptual history for the Persian translation, showing how Ibn A‘tham’s history was re-imagined and prepared for its yet-bright future as a work of Persian historiography. Ultimately, I try to show the critical place filled by the culture of writing shared between Arabic and Persian: Rather than a firm boundary between two distinct languages, in the lens of Ibn A‘tham’s history, we observe a zone of interaction and innovation.

description: The invariance under unitary representations of the conformal group SL(2,R) of a quantum particle is rigorously investigated in two-dimensional spacetimes containing Killing horizons using DFF model. The limit of the near-horizon approximation is considered. If the Killing horizon is bifurcate the conformal symmetry is hidden, i.e. it does not arise from geometrical spacetime isometries, but the whole Hilbert space turns out to be an irreducible unitary representation of SL(2,R) and the time evolution is embodied in the unitary representation. In this case the symmetry does not depend on the mass of the particle and, if the representation is faithful, the conformal observable K shows thermal properties. If the Killing horizon is nonbifurcate the conformal symmetry is manifest, i.e. it arises from geometrical spacetime isometries. The SL(2,R) representation which arises from the geometry selects a hidden conformal representation. Also in that case the Hilbert space is an irreducible representation of SL(2,R) and the group conformal symmetries embodies the time evolution with respect to the local Killing time. However no thermal properties are involved. The conformal observable K gives rise to Killing time evolution of the quantum state with respect to another global Killing time present in the manifold. Mathematical proofs about the developed machinery are supplied and features of the operator H_g = -({d^2}/{dx^2})+ ({g}/{x^2}), with g=-1/4 are discussed. It is proven that a statement, used in the recent literature, about the spectrum of self-adjoint extensions of H_g is incorrect.

description: We study combinatorial aspects of q-weighted, length-L Forrester-Baxter paths, P^{p, p'}_{a, b, c}(L), where p, p', a, b, c \in Z_{+}, 0 < p < p', 0 < a, b, c < p', c = b \pm 1, L+a-b \equiv 0 (mod 2), and p and p' are co-prime. We obtain a bijection between P^{p, p'}_{a, b, c}(L) and partitions with certain prescribed hook differences. Thereby, we obtain a new description of the q-weights of P^{p, p'}_{a, b, c}(L). Using the new weights, and defining s_0 and r_0 to be the smallest non-negative integers for which |p s_0 - p' r_0|=1, we restrict the discussion to P^{p, p'}_{s_0} \equiv P^{p, p'}_{s_0,s_0,s_0+1}(L), and introduce two combinatorial transforms: 1. A Bailey-type transform B: P^{p, p'}_{s_0}(L) -> P^{p, p'+p}_{s_0 + r_0}(L'), L \leq L', 2. A duality-type transform D: P^{p, p'}_{s_0}(L) -> P^{p'-p, p'}_{s_0}(L). We study the action of B and D, as q-polynomial transforms on the P^{p, p'}_{s_0}(L) generating functions, χ^{p, p'}_{s_0}(L). In the limit L -> \infinity, χ^{p, p'}_{s_0}(L) reduces to the Virasoro characters, χ^{p, p'}_{r_0, s_0}, of minimal conformal field theories M^{p, p'}, or equivalently, to the one-point functions of regime-III Forrester-Baxter models. As an application of the B and D transforms, we re-derive the constant-sign expressions for χ^{p, p'}_{r_0, s_0}, first derived by Berkovich and McCoy.

I. Radical Cyclizations Mediated by Transition Metal Hydrides II. Study toward the Total Synthesis of Pluraflavin A  III. Cytoprotective Polyacetylenes Inspired by Panaxytriol
Creators: Hartung, John
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Chemistry

description: The first part of the thesis describes radical cyclizations mediated by transition metal hydrides. CpCr(CO)3H and (H2O)2Co(dmgBF2)2 under H2 gas catalyzed the radical cyclization of 1,6-dienes to form 5- and 6-membered rings and the cyclization of a 1,6,11 triene to form a substituted decalin. Vanadium hydrides of the general formula HV(CO)4(P-P), where P-P is a chelating bisphosphine, were used to initiate radical cyclizations, but could only be used stoichiometrically. The method was expanded to include the synthesis of tetrahydrofurans by employing vinyl ethers as substrates. The second part of the thesis describes study toward the total synthesis of the highly potent anti-proliferative natural product pluraflavin A. Synthesis of the optically active des-carbohydrate core was accomplished by a key [3+2] cycloaddition and a Diels-Alder-aromatization sequence. A derivative of the des-carbohydrate bearing a bromine atom enabled the attachment of the C-glycosidic residue by Stille coupling. Subsequent stereoselective glycosylation reactions appended the O-glycosidic residues. The current approach furnished an advanced intermediate with all of the functionality of the target, albeit in protected form. The third part of the thesis describes the synthesis and in vitro evaluation of a series of polyacetylenes inspired by the Ginseng-derived natural product, panaxytriol. Three series of analogs were synthesized by a convergent route featuring the Cadiot-Chodkiewicz reaction. The analogs were tested for their ability to induce cytoprotective enzymes by the Nrf2 cell-signaling pathway. The resulting structure-activity relationship suggested that the diyne and propargylic hydroxyl functionalities are necessary for phase II enzyme induction. While we have not yet necessarily attained the optimal structure for Nrf2 induction without accompanying cytotoxicity, several novel and potent analogs have been discovered.

description: Part I of this thesis (Chapter 1) describes the development of the first synthetic method for intermolecular palladium-catalyzed direct C-H arylation of N-substituted pyrazole compounds. The scope of the reaction and the ability to sequentially and selectively arylate specific positions on the azole core to rapidly access highly substituted pyrazoles will be discussed. Part II of this thesis addresses two separate targets to modulate neuroplasticity. In Chapter 2, the TrkB receptor as a potential target for pharmacological modulation is examined. Its signaling, role in brain disease, and reported agonists and antagonists are reviewed. In addition, our attempts at establishing an assay to assess TrkB activation, as well as our results using the reported agonists and an antagonist in several model cell lines, are discussed. The third chapter of this work features the development of rationally-designed isoquinuclidines that induce GDNF production by brain cell models. In addition to examining the mechanism of action of an isoquinuclidine (XL-026) using pharmacological inhibition, the mapping of GDNF production and release by C6 rat glioma cells is described and a mechanistic model based on our results is presented.

description: Using Reedy techniques, this paper gives a correct proof of the left properness of the q-model structure of flows. It fixes the preceding proof which relies on an incorrect argument. The last section is devoted to fix some arguments published in past papers coming from this incorrect argument. These Reedy techniques also enable us to study the interactions between the path space functor of flows with various notions of cofibrations. The proofs of this paper are written to work with many convenient categories of topological spaces like the ones of $k$-spaces and of weakly Hausdorff $k$-spaces and their locally presentable analogues, the $Δ$-generated spaces and the $Δ$-Hausdorff $Δ$-generated spaces.

description: Pseudobironium subglabrum Löbl, 1990
 Pseudobironium subglabrum Löbl, 1990: 514.
HOLOTYPE: Ƌ, MHNG. Type locality: Thailand, Chiang Mai, Doi Inthanon, 1650m.
DISTRIBUTION: Thailand.
 COMMENTS: The species remains known by the single type. It may be distinguished from the presumably related P. almoranum by the reddish-brown body with elytra slightly darkened apically, the elytral punctation fine except near apices, the broader apical process of the median lobe, the curved parameres, and the structures of the internal sac.
 Pseudobironium ussuricum Löbl, 1969 Figs 75-77 Pseudobironium ussuricum Löbl, 1969: 325.
HOLOTYPE: ZMAN. Type locality: Russia, Ussuri, Vinogradovka.
ADDITIONAL MATERIAL EXAMINED: CHINA, Yunnan, Xishuangbanna, 24.I.1993, 1 ex. leg. G. de Rougemont (MHNG).
DISTRIBUTION: Far East Russia, China: Anhui, Yunnan; South Korea.
 COMMENTS: This species is unique in having metaventrite and abdominal sternite 1 coarsely punctate laterally. It has short antennae and the body comparatively weekly convex dorsally, and resembles in these two characters P. sparsepunctatum, P. languei and P. achardi. The ultimate segment of the maxillary palpi is however tapering and about 3 times as long as wide, quite distinctive from that in P. sparsepunctatum and P. languei, while P. achardi is distinctive by its smaller size of body and peculiar coloration of the pronotum and elytra. The length ratio of the antennomeres in P. ussuricum is as follows: II 10: III 6: IV 8: V 10: VI 7: VII 13: VIII 12: IX 13: X 12: XI 17; antennomere XI about three times as long as wide. The aedeagus (Figs 75-77) is characterized by the very narrow and weakly inflexed tip of the medina lobe (in lateral view) and narrow, straight parameres. The description of P. ussuricum was based on specimens from Far East Russia. The species was subsequently reported from the Chinese province Anhui (Löbl, 1984b: 993) and from Korea (Hoshina & Ahn, 2005: 522).

description: We construct the exchange gate with small elementary gates on the space of qudits, which consist of three controlled shift gates and three "reverse" gates. This is a natural extension of the qubit case. We also consider a similar subject on the Fock space, but in this case we meet with some different situation. However we can construct the exchange gate by making use of generalized coherent operator based on the Lie algebra su(2) which is a well--known method in Quantum Optics. We moreover make a brief comment on "imperfect clone".

The Magnus force in superfluids and superconductors

Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)

description: The forces on the vortex, transverse to its velocity, are considered. In addition to the superfluid Magnus force from the condensate (superfluid component), there are transverse forces from thermal quasiparticles and external fields violating the translational invariance. The forces between quasiparticles and the vortex originate from interference of quasiparticles with trajectories on the left and on the right from the vortex like similar forces for electrons interacting with the thin magnetic-flux tube (the Aharonov-Bohm effect). These forces are derived in the Born approximation for phonons from the equations of superfluid hydrodynamics, and for BCS quasiparticles from the Bogolyubov-de Gennes equations. The effect of external fields violating translational invariance is analyzed for vortices in the two-dimensional Josephson junction array. The symmetry analysis of the classical equations for the array shows that the total transverse force on the vortex vanishes. Therefore the Hall effect which is linear in the transverse force is absent also. This means that the Magnus force from the superfluid component exactly cancels with the transverse force from the external fields. The results of other approaches are also brought together for discussion.

Removal of the resolvent-like dependence on the spectral parameter from perturbations

description: The spectral problem (A + V(z))ψ=zψis considered with A, a self-adjoint operator. The perturbation V(z) is assumed to depend on the spectral parameter z as resolvent of another self-adjoint operator A': V(z)=-B(A'-z)^{-1}B^{*}. It is supposed that the operator B has a finite Hilbert-Schmidt norm and spectra of the operators A and A' are separated. Conditions are formulated when the perturbation V(z) may be replaced with a ``potential'' W independent of z and such that the operator H=A+W has the same spectrum and the same eigenfunctions (more precisely, a part of spectrum and a respective part of eigenfunctions system) as the initial spectral problem. The operator H is constructed as a solution of the non-linear operator equation H=A+V(H) with a specially chosen operator-valued function V(H). In the case if the initial spectral problem corresponds to a two-channel variant of the Friedrichs model, a basis property of the eigenfunction system of the operator H is proved. A scattering theory is developed for H in the case where the operator A has continuous spectrum.

description: We designed and fabricated a new type of superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) susceptometers for magnetic imaging of quantum materials. The 2-junction SQUID sensors employ 3D Nb nano-bridges fabricated using electron beam lithography. The two counter-wound balanced pickup loops of the SQUID enable gradiometric measurement and they are surrounded by a one-turn field coil for susceptibility measurements. The smallest pickup loop of the SQUIDs were 1 $μm$ in diameter and the flux noise was around 1 $μΦ_0/\sqrt{Hz}$ at 100 Hz. We demonstrate scanning magnetometry, susceptometry and current magnetometry on some test samples using these nano-SQUIDs.
Array BP-XOR Codes for Hierarchically Distributed Matrix Multiplication

description: A novel fault-tolerant computation technique based on array Belief Propagation (BP)-decodable XOR (BP-XOR) codes is proposed for distributed matrix-matrix multiplication. The proposed scheme is shown to be configurable and suited for modern hierarchical compute architectures such as Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) equipped with multiple nodes, whereby each has many small independent processing units with increased core-to-core communications. The proposed scheme is shown to outperform a few of the well--known earlier strategies in terms of total end-to-end execution time while in presence of slow nodes, called $stragglers$. This performance advantage is due to the careful design of array codes which distributes the encoding operation over the cluster (slave) nodes at the expense of increased master-slave communication. An interesting trade-off between end-to-end latency and total communication cost is precisely described. In addition, to be able to address an identified problem of scaling stragglers, an asymptotic version of array BP-XOR codes based on projection geometry is proposed at the expense of some computation overhead. A thorough latency analysis is conducted for all schemes to demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves order-optimal computation in both the sublinear as well as the linear regimes in the size of the computed product from an end-to-end delay perspective.

Graded tilting for gauged Landau-Ginzburg models and geometric applications

description: In this paper we develop a graded tilting theory for gauged Landau-Ginzburg models of regular sections in vector bundles over projective varieties. Our main theoretical result describes - under certain conditions - the bounded derived category of the zero locus $Z(s)$ of such a section $s$ as a graded singularity category of a non-commutative quotient algebra $Λ/\langle s\rangle$: $D^b(\mathrm{coh} Z(s))\simeq D^{\mathrm{gr}}_{\mathrm{sg}}(Λ/\langle s\rangle)$. Our geometric applications all come from homogeneous gauged linear sigma models. In this case $Λ$ is a non-commutative resolution of the invariant ring which defines the $\mathbb{C}^*$-equivariant affine GIT quotient of the model. We obtain purely algebraic descriptions of the derived categories of the following families of varieties: - Complete intersections. - Isotropic symplectic and orthogonal Grassmannians. - Beauville-Donagi IHS 4-folds.
description: 36 pages. Changes in the revised version: minor corrections, for instance in Theorem 1.26, we added "one of the conditions in (1) or (2) of Theorem 1.24" in the list of assumptions. On p. 32, in the paragraph dedicated to the Beauville-Donagi 4-folds, we now check in detail the codimension condition needed for the application of Theorem 1.24. New revision: minor corrections

description: It is shown that G-up, the quantified propositional Goedel-Dummett logic based on the truth-values set V-up = {1 - 1/n : n >= 1} u {1}, is decidable. This result is obtained by reduction to Buechi's theory S1S. An alternative proof based on elimination of quantifiers is also given, which yields both an axiomatization and a characterization of G-up as the intersection of all finite-valued quantified propositional Goedel logics.
