title: Das pittoreske Bessarabien. Die Identität der östlichen Provinz im Rumänischen Königreich nach 1918 definieren
Creators: name: Constantinescu, Romaniţa
Publisher: name: University Library Heidelberg
Year: 2009

description: On 24 January 1918, the Moldavian Democratic Republic declared its independence from Soviet Russia and, a few months later, declared its union with the Kingdom of Romania. Bessarabia, the land between the Prut and Dniester rivers, which had been part of the Moldavian Voivodeship and had been annexed in 1812 by the Tsarist Russia, was saved from bolshevization for the next two decades. In 1940, Bessarabia was occupied by the Soviet armies, won back by Romanian armies allied with the Axis in 1941, and reoocupied by the Soviets in 1944, later to become the Soviet state called the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic. Though Bessarabia’s return to its “origins” – the integration of this territory into the national Romanian state in 1918 – brought about ecstatic expressions of joy, the union was neither a problem-free process nor a self-evident political act, accepted as such on both sides of the river Prut. The present study deals with the strategies used in the public discourse between the two world wars aiming at the harmonization of the provinces of Greater Romania, as the kingdom was called, as well as at the promotion of marginal territories, poorly known and often regarded with suspicion. Bessarabia utilized the same strategy that was successful for the Romanians, when they sought recognition from what was then known as “the civilized world/Europe.” The strategy was an emphasis on the picturesque, via which an area full of differences was poetically represented as pleasant, interesting and relaxing. The picturesque diminishes the differences that the eye of the foreign traveler discovers in both the human and natural landscapes: the differences become agreeable, without needing to deny or conceal them. Integration into another world can thus be made without giving up any particularities, which neverthess yet must become part of the communication, in order to create a discourse that would make them known and accepted.

title: Die „unverlierbare Zeit“. Sergio Chejfecs Lenta biografía und die zweite Generation der Shoah
Creators: name: Post, Anna-Maria
Publisher: name: University Library Heidelberg
Year: 2011

description: Starting with psychoanalytic theory and focusing on the terms “second generation” and “transgenerational transmission of trauma,” the paper tries to depict Sergio Chejfec’s novel Lenta biografía as exemplary narration of the second Shoah generation. An examination of psychoanalytic concepts and their specific aspects is followed by a close reading of Chejfec’s novel in order to scrutinize characteristics of the trans-generational transmission of trauma. Silence as a key aspect of the transmission of trauma will be brought to the fore by investigating both the relationship between catastrophe and the unspeakable and issues involved with verbalizing traumatic memories. The article ends with a formal and content analysis of Lenta biografía in order to highlight the relationship between silence and the father’s trauma as well as the son’s traumatization.

Creators: name: Schöpf, Simon
Publisher: name: University Library Heidelberg
Year: 2011

description: The parallels between the works of René Descartes and Pierre Corneille have provoked vivid discussion for over a century. This article represents a twofold contribution to this tradition. First, it examines the question of whether Corneille's hero Rodrigue in “Le Cid” is compatible with Descartes’ theory of the human passions and with the ethical ideal of the homme généreux that Descartes puts forward in his “Traité des passions.” Second, it summarizes the debate stemming from Lanson's famous thesis of the “identité d'esprit” between Descartes’ “Traité des passions” and Corneille’s tragedies in 1894.

description: We investigate the tail distribution of the first exit time of Brownian motion with drift from a cone and find its exact asymptotics for a large class of cones. Our results show in particular that its exponential decreasing rate is a function of the distance between the drift and the cone, whereas the polynomial part in the asymptotics depends on the position of the drift with respect to the cone and its polar cone, and reflects the local geometry of the cone at the point where the drift is orthogonally projected.
Inversion Symmetry of Gravitational Coupling in Cubic String Field Theory

description: It was found that the canonical energy of multi-brane solutions in CSFT constructed by the KBc algebra has a symmetry under the exchange of K=0 and K=\infty (inversion symmetry). On the other hand, the gauge invariant observable (GIO), which is regarded as the energy defined by the gravitational coupling of open string, cannot count the energy from K=\infty and therefore is not equal to the canonical energy. To resolve this discrepancy, we examine the recent argument of Baba and Ishibashi which directly relates the two energies. We find that the gravitational coupling which is equivalent to the canonical energy consists of the GIO and another new term, and the whole has the inversion symmetry.

description: A recent result of one of the authors says that every connected subcubic bipartite graph that is not isomorphic to the Heawood graph has at least one, and in fact a positive proportion of its eigenvalues in the interval [-1,1]. We construct an infinite family of connected cubic bipartite graphs which have no eigenvalues in the open interval (-1,1), thus showing that the interval [-1,1] cannot be replaced by any smaller symmetric subinterval even when allowing any finite number of exceptions. Similar examples with vertices of larger degrees are considered and it is also shown that their eigenvalue distribution has somewhat unusual properties. By taking limits of these graphs, we obtain examples of infinite vertex-transitive r-regular graphs for every r\ge3, whose spectrum consists of points $\pm1$ together with intervals [r-2,r] and [-r,-r+2]. These examples shed some light onto a question communicated by Daniel Lenz and Matthias Keller with motivation in relation to the Baum-Connes conjecture.

description: We show how two-dimensional waveguide arrays can be used to probe the effect of on-site interaction on Anderson localization of two interacting bosons in one dimension. It is shown that classical light and linear elements are sufficient to experimentally probe the interplay between interaction and disorder in this setting. For experimental relevance, we evaluate the participation ratio and the intensity correlation function as measures of localization for two types of disorder (diagonal and off-diagonal), for two types of interaction (repulsive and attractive), and for a variety of initial input states. Employing a commonly used set of initial states, we show that the effect of interaction on Anderson localization is strongly dependent on the type of disorder and initial conditions, but is independent of whether the interaction is repulsive or attractive. We then analyze a certain type of entangled input state where the type of interaction is relevant and discuss how it can be naturally implemented in waveguide arrays. We conclude by laying out the details of the two-dimensional photonic lattice implementation including the required parameter regime.

Higgs as a Top-Mode Pseudo

description: In the spirit of the top quark condensation, we propose a model which has a naturally light composite Higgs boson, "tHiggs", to be identified with the 126 GeV Higgs discovered at the LHC. The tHiggs, a bound state of the top quark and its flavor (vector-like) partner, emerges as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (NGB), "Top-Mode Pseudo", together with the exact NGBs to be absorbed into the W and Z bosons as well as another (heavier) Top-Mode Pseudo (CP-odd composite scalar). Those five composite (exact/pseudo) NGBs are dynamically produced simultaneously by a single supercritical four-fermion interaction having U(3) x U(1) symmetry which includes the electroweak symmetry, where the vacuum is aligned by small explicit breaking term so as to break the symmetry down to a subgroup, U(2) x U(1)', in a way not to retain the electroweak symmetry, in sharp contrast to the little Higgs models. The explicit breaking term for the vacuum alignment gives rise to a mass of the tHiggs, which is protected by the symmetry and hence naturally controlled against radiative corrections. Realistic top quark mass is easily realized similarly to the top-seesaw mechanism by introducing an extra (subcritical) four-fermion coupling which explicitly breaks the residual U(2) x U(1)' symmetry. We present a phenomenological Lagrangian of the Top-Mode Pseudos along with the standard model particles, which will be useful for the study of the collider phenomenology. The coupling property of the tHiggs is shown to be consistent with the currently available data reported from the LHC. Several phenomenological consequences and constraints from experiments are also addressed.

description: We show that, using the experimentally observed values of CKM and PMNS mixing matrices, all known elementary fermions can be assigned a new quantum number, the scalar spin, in a unique way. This is achieved without introduction of new degrees of freedom. The assignment implies that tau-neutrino should be an anti-Dirac spinor, while mu-tau leptons and charm-top, strange-bottom quarks form Dirac-anti-Dirac scalar spin doublets. The electron and its neutrino remain as originally described by Dirac.

Infinite-dimensional statistical manifolds based on a balanced chart

description: We develop a family of infinite-dimensional Banach manifolds of measures on an abstract measurable space, employing charts that are "balanced" between the density and log-density functions. The manifolds, $(\tilde{M}_λ,λ\in [2,\infty))$, retain many of the features of finite-dimensional information geometry; in particular, the $α$-divergences are of class $C^{\lceilλ\rceil-1}$, enabling the definition of the Fisher metric and $α$-derivatives of particular classes of vector fields. Manifolds of probability measures, $(M_λ,λ\in [2,\infty))$, based on centred versions of the charts are shown to be $C^{\lceilλ\rceil-1}$-embedded submanifolds of the $\tilde{M}_λ$. The Fisher metric is a pseudo-Riemannian metric on $\tilde{M}_λ$. However, when restricted to finite-dimensional embedded submanifolds it becomes a Riemannian metric, allowing the full development of the geometry of $α$-covariant derivatives. $\tilde{M}_λ$ and $M_λ$ provide natural settings for the study and comparison of approximations to posterior distributions in problems of Bayesian estimation.

description: We construct a canonical quantization of the two dimensional theory of a parametrized scalar field on noncompact spatial slices. The kinematics is built upon generalized charge-network states which are labelled by smooth embedding spacetimes, unlike the standard basis states carrying only discrete labels. The resulting quantum geometry corresponds to a nondegenerate vacuum metric, which allows a consistent realization of the asymptotic conditions on the canonical fields. Although the quantum counterpart of the classical symmetry group of conformal isometries consists only of continuous global translations, Lorentz invariance can still be recovered in an effective sense. The quantum spacetime as characterized by a gauge invariant state is shown to be made up of discrete strips at the interior, and smooth at asymptotia. The analysis here is expected to be particularly relevant for a canonical quantization of asymptotically flat gravity based on generalized spin-network states labelled by smooth geometries.

description: Distributed storage systems in the presence of a wiretapper are considered. A distributed storage system (DSS) is parameterized by three parameters (n, k,d), in which a file stored across n distributed nodes, can be recovered from any k out of n nodes. If a node fails, any d out of (n-1) nodes help in the repair of the failed node. For such a (n,k,d)-DSS, two types of wiretapping scenarios are investigated: (a) Type-I (node) adversary which can wiretap the data stored on any l4, we present extensions of these results to a (n, n-1,n-1)-DSS, in presence of a Type-II adversary that can observe the repair data of any l=(n-2) nodes. The key technical contribution of this work is in developing novel information theoretic converse proofs for the Type-II adversarial scenario. From our results, we show that in the presence of Type-II attacks, the only efficient point in the storage-vs-exact-repair-bandwidth tradeoff is the MBR (minimum bandwidth regenerating) point. This is in sharp contrast to the case of a Type-I attack in which the storage-vs-exact-repair-bandwidth tradeoff allows a spectrum of operating points beyond the MBR point.

description: Ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) is increasingly used in the management of cancer-related anemia, yet it may cause hypophosphatemia. This retrospective study describes the incidence, evolution and risk factors of hypophosphatemia in a cohort of patients with solid tumors receiving FCM. Serum phosphorus concentration was assessed longitudinally using a random intercepts model. The probability of developing hypophosphatemia, as graded by CTCAE version 4.0, was investigated using a multi-state model. Transition hazards were modeled non-parametrically and semi-parametrically by a Cox model. Causal marginal risk differences between baseline interventions on serum phosphorus and/or FCM dose were obtained via G-computation. In 174 ambulatory patients with solid tumors receiving FCM at two university hospitals between October 2020 and September 2021, the risk of developing moderate-to-severe hypophosphatemia was 36.0% (95% confidence interval (CI) 28.2–43.9%) and peaked within 16 days after first FCM administration. The average duration of moderate-to-severe hypophosphatemia was 12.4 days. After adjustment for confounders, lower baseline serum phosphorus (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 0.88 per 0.1 mmol/L increase, 95% CI 0.79–0.98) and higher FCM dose (first dose: aHR 1.12 per 1 mg/kg increase, 95% CI 1.01–1.25; second dose: aHR 1.06 per 1 mg/kg increase, 95% CI 1.00–1.13) significantly increased the hazard of moderate-to-severe hypophosphatemia. Approximately one out of three ambulatory patients with solid tumors may develop moderate-to-severe hypophosphatemia after FCM administration. Baseline serum phosphorus and FCM dose may be modifiable risk factors that should be considered for intervention in order to mitigate the risk of hypophosphatemia.

 Rhynchothrips fuscipennis Moulton, 1968: 97
 Teuchothrips fuscipennis (Moulton); Mound & Houston, 1987: 18 This species was described from a holotype female with one male and two female paratypes, collected by W.W. Froggatt at Canberra, 14.i.1927. The holotype slide (in the California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco) bears the unpublished information “from woolly covering of mealybugs”. Periodically, C. fuscipennis is common in the Canberra region and has also been seen from Victoria; the host plant, Kunzea ericoides, is widespread in south-eastern Australia. Populations of the eriococcid and the thrips were high in the years 2000 to 2002, but both insect species became difficult to find in 2004 and 2005, which years were particularly dry. As with so many insect species in this area, populations seem to be remarkably unstable from year to year.
 Unfortunately, this thrips was described in a paper that was prepared for publication 17 years after Moulton’s death, and the specific epithet fuscipennis was used for three newly described species in three different genera: Smerinthothrips fuscipennis Moulton (1968: 93) is now a synonym of Teuchothrips ater (Girault), and Teuchothrips fuscipennis Moulton (1968: 100) is now a synonym of Heligmothrips erinaceus (Karny) (Mound & Houston, 1987). Rhynchothrips fuscipennis itself has been listed under Teuchothrips for the past 20 years, pending studies on the many unidentifiable species of Phlaeothripinae named by Moulton and particularly by A.A.Girault (Mound 1996; Crespi et al., 2004). Progressively, the identity and host associations of various members of the Teuchothrips -complex are being elucidated, based on field and laboratory studies (Mound & Morris, 2007).

In this paper, we prove the Beauville-Voisin conjecture for generalized Kummer varieties.

description: A widespread call has been made to develop and support more integrated approaches to STEM education. The first law of thermodynamics serves as a guiding principle for the crosscutting concept of energy and matter. A qualitative interview study was undertaken to support integrated approaches to STEM education by exploring how chemistry, physics, and engineering students (n = 40) transfer first law concepts across disciplinary contexts. Acquired interview data were analysed through the lens of the dynamic transfer framework to reveal the underlying contextual elements students used to know with. Emergent trends across the disciplines revealed how these applied reasoning approaches and epistemologies were realised by each discipline. Productive transfer is shown to be facilitated by the coordination of different disciplinary epistemologies. Suggestions are made to practitioners on how to support students in applying different reasoning approaches when addressing first law problems. The applied methods also serve as a promising methodology for future investigation of students’ transfer of crosscutting concepts.

Second-order properties and central limit theorems for geometric functionals of Boolean models

description: Let $Z$ be a Boolean model based on a stationary Poisson process $η$ of compact, convex particles in Euclidean space ${\mathbb{R}}^d$. Let $W$ denote a compact, convex observation window. For a large class of functionals $ψ$, formulas for mean values of $ψ(Z\cap W)$ are available in the literature. The first aim of the present work is to study the asymptotic covariances of general geometric (additive, translation invariant and locally bounded) functionals of $Z\cap W$ for increasing observation window $W$, including convergence rates. Our approach is based on the Fock space representation associated with $η$. For the important special case of intrinsic volumes, the asymptotic covariance matrix is shown to be positive definite and can be explicitly expressed in terms of suitable moments of (local) curvature measures in the isotropic case. The second aim of the paper is to prove multivariate central limit theorems including Berry-Esseen bounds. These are based on a general normal approximation result obtained by the Malliavin--Stein method.

description: This paper is an analysis of the agricultural campaign run by Premier Nikita Khrushchev during his term leading the Soviet Union from 1953-1964. Khrushchev became enamored with the wild success of corn in the United States and was determined to prove the Soviet Union and its communist methods could reach the same levels of prosperity and even surpass those of the U.S. Though, it quickly became apparent that there were many issues within the Soviet system that impeded the crop’s ability to grow and prosper as it did in America. While the campaign did not bring the success it promised to the Soviet citizens, it depicts an interesting aspect of the competition between world powers during the Cold War that does not involve the arms race: agricultural prosperity.

description: Pulsars orbiting the Galactic center black hole, Sgr A*, would be potential probes of its mass, distance and spin, and may even be used to test general relativity. Despite predictions of large populations of both ordinary and millisecond pulsars in the Galactic center, none have been detected within 25 pc by deep radio surveys. One explanation has been that hyperstrong temporal scattering prevents pulsar detections, but the recent discovery of radio pulsations from a highly magnetized neutron star (magnetar) within 0.1 pc shows that the temporal scattering is much weaker than predicted. We argue that an intrinsic deficit in the ordinary pulsar population is the most likely reason for the lack of detections to date: a "missing pulsar problem" in the Galactic center. In contrast, we show that the discovery of a single magnetar implies efficient magnetar formation in the region. If the massive stars in the central parsec form magnetars rather than ordinary pulsars, their short lifetimes could explain the missing pulsars. Efficient magnetar formation could be caused by strongly magnetized progenitors, or could be further evidence of a top-heavy initial mass function. Furthermore, current high-frequency surveys should already be able to detect bright millisecond pulsars, given the measured degree of temporal scattering.

description: Via numerical and analytical methods, the effects of the Lifshitz dynamical exponent $z$ on holographic superconductors are studied in some detail, including $s$ wave and $p$ wave models. Working in the probe limit, we find that the behaviors of holographic models indeed depend on concrete value of $z$. We obtain the condensation and conductivity in both Lifshitz black hole and soliton backgrounds with general $z$. For both $s$ wave and $p$ wave models in the black hole backgrounds, as $z$ increases, the phase transition becomes more difficult and the growth of conductivity is suppressed. For the Lifshitz soliton backgrounds, when $z$ increases ($z=1,~2,~3$), the critical chemical potential decreases in the $s$ wave cases but increases in the $p$ wave cases. For $p$ wave models in both Lifshitz black hole and soliton backgrounds, the anisotropy between the AC conductivity in different spatial directions is suppressed when $z$ increases. The analytical results uphold the numerical results.

description: The braided Thompson group $\mathcal B$ is an asymptotic mapping class group of a sphere punctured along the standard Cantor set, endowed with a rigid structure. Inspired from the case of finite type surfaces we consider a Hatcher-Thurston cell complex whose vertices are asymptotically trivial pants decompositions. We prove that the automorphism group $\hat{\mathcal B^{\frac{1}{2}}}$ of this complex is also an asymptotic mapping class group in a weaker sense. Moreover $\hat{\mathcal B^{\frac{1}{2}}}$ is obtained by $\mathcal B$ by first adding new elements called half-twists and further completing it.

description: The discovery of an intact midden at Skútustaðir’s historic farmstead in 2007 was a key finding for the planned investigation of the medieval and early modern periods in the lake Mývatn area of northern Iceland. The 2009 field season followed a soil coring survey and surface collection in 2007 and the excavation of four test trenches in 2008. Work was carried out by international team of archaeologists (hailing from the City University of New York (CUNY), North Atlantic Biocultural Organization (NABO) Fornleifastofnun Islands(FSÍ) and the University of Bradford) as part of an ongoing National Science Foundation, International Polar Year (NSF, IPY) project focusing on long term subsistence practices and human and environmental interactions. Zooarchaeological evidence from Skútustaðir excavation seasons in 2008 and 2009 is reviewed in this report, and laboratory analysis of animal bones is ongoing at the CUNY Hunter College and CUNY Brooklyn College Zooarchaeology Laboratories. The ongoing analysis has shown that the most important domesticates were sheep and cattle- used for meat, wool. and dairy throughout all periods. Skútustaðir may have had some advantages in their ability to keep cattle over other farms in the area. Goats, pigs, and horses are also present in the archaeofauna in low numbers. The presence of birds, bird egg shell, seals, cetaceae (whales and porpoises), marine fish and freshwater fish points toward a breadth of local and non local resources being consumed at the site. Ongoing analysis aims to uncover the diets and economies of the site’s residents as well as the related social and ecological interactions through time.

description: We produce a decidable super-intuitionistic normal modal logic of internalised intuitionistic (and thus disjunctive and monotonic) interactive proofs (LIiP) from an existing classical counterpart of classical monotonic non-disjunctive interactive proofs (LiP). Intuitionistic interactive proofs effect a durable epistemic impact in the possibly adversarial communication medium CM (which is imagined as a distinguished agent), and only in that, that consists in the permanent induction of the perfect and thus disjunctive knowledge of their proof goal by means of CM's knowledge of the proof: If CM knew my proof then CM would persistently and also disjunctively know that my proof goal is true. So intuitionistic interactive proofs effect a lasting transfer of disjunctive propositional knowledge (disjunctively knowable facts) in the communication medium of multi-agent distributed systems via the transmission of certain individual knowledge (knowable intuitionistic proofs). Our (necessarily) CM-centred notion of proof is also a disjunctive explicit refinement of KD45-belief, and yields also such a refinement of standard S5-knowledge. Monotonicity but not communality is a commonality of LiP, LIiP, and their internalised notions of proof. As a side-effect, we offer a short internalised proof of the Disjunction Property of Intuitionistic Logic (originally proved by Goedel).

Pasteurella multocida toxin disrupts the respiratory epithelial barrier by utilizing the T-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channel CaV3.1 as a candidate receptor

description: Pasteurella multocidatoxin (PMT) is an exotoxinproduced by several members of the zoonotic respiratory pathogen P. multocida. The role of PMT in disrupting the mammalianrespiratory barrier remains to be elucidated. In this study, we discovered thatinoculation of recombinantly expressed PMT increased the permeability of the respiratory epithelial barrier in mouse and respiratory cell models. This was evidenced by a decreased expression of tight junctions (ZO-1, occludin) and adherens junctions (β-catenin, E-cadherin), as well as enhanced cytoskeletal rearrangement. In mechanism, we demonstrated thatPMT inoculation induced cytoplasmic Ca2+ inflow, leading to an imbalanceof cellular Ca2+homeostasis and endoplasmic reticulum stress. This process further stimulated the RhoA/ROCK signaling, promoting cytoskeletal rearrangementand reducing the expression of tight junctions and adherens junctions. Notably, the T-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channel CaV3.1 was found to participate in PMT-induced cytoplasmic Ca2+ inflow. Knocking out CaV3.1 significantly reduced the cytotoxicityinduced by PMT on swine respiratory epithelial cellsand mitigatedcytoplasmic Ca2+ inflowstimulated by PMT. Further analysis identified Ser (aa92), Glu (aa155), Tyr (aa167), and Leu (aa448) as crucial sites utilizedby PMT to interact with CaV3.1. These findings suggest CaV3.1serves as an important host receptor of PMT and contributes to PMT-induced respiratory epithelial barrier disruption.

Attitude tracking control of rigid bodies

Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2023
Subjects: Control engineering

description: We study the problem of attitude trajectory tracking of rigid bodies subject to external disturbances. The attitude control problem has been studied in the last decades, and novel solutions have been proposed. Nevertheless, most of the proposed controllers only achieve asymptotic stability without considering external disturbances. Contrary to other works, we focus on the problem of achieving almost global exponential stability of the attitude tracking errors in the presence of external disturbances using a continuous feedback control law. To solve this problem, we propose an attitude trajectory tracking controller based on the exponential coordinates of rotation in combination with a disturbance observer that estimates the exogenous signals. We adopt a hierarchical approach, where the proposed control law is divided into a kinematic controller (outer control loop) and a velocity tracking controller (inner control loop). In order to design the disturbance observer, it is assumed that exogenous signals can be generated by a linear exosystem, i.e., the magnitude and phase of the disturbance are unknown. A strict Lyapunov function proved the almost global exponential stability of the closed-loop dynamics equilibrium point. Numerical simulations and experimental tests on a low-cost quadrotor assess the performance of the proposed approach.

description: In this paper, we revisit the classical results on the generalized St. Petersburg sums. We determine the limit distribution of the St. Petersburg sum conditioning on its maximum, and we analyze how the limit depends on the value of the maximum. As an application, we obtain an infinite sum representation of the distribution function of the possible semistable limits. In the representation, each term corresponds to a given maximum, in particular this result explains that the semistable behavior is caused by the typical values of the maximum.

description: Farmers are likely to get the yields they want, not with the case when they exactly follow each step in the production process. High manufacturing accuracy and efficiency are achieved with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) across various industrial fields. These are, such as, controlling the health of plants, anticipating the future occurrences like diseases & insect infestation and using high-end digital databases and color histogram to detect weeds. Drones mounted with cameras and internet of things (IoT) technologies are their choice of hardware for real-time data collection and on-the-spot information that help farmers to make quick decisions to reduce losses and improve their agricultural practices.
