description: Motivated by differential co-expression analysis in genomics, we consider in this paper estimation and testing of high-dimensional differential correlation matrices. An adaptive thresholding procedure is introduced and theoretical guarantees are given. Minimax rate of convergence is established and the proposed estimator is shown to be adaptively rate-optimal over collections of paired correlation matrices with approximately sparse differences. Simulation results show that the procedure significantly outperforms two other natural methods that are based on separate estimation of the individual correlation matrices. The procedure is also illustrated through an analysis of a breast cancer dataset, which provides evidence at the gene co-expression level that several genes, of which a subset has been previously verified, are associated with the breast cancer. Hypothesis testing on the differential correlation matrices is also considered. A test, which is particularly well suited for testing against sparse alternatives, is introduced. In addition, other related problems, including estimation of a single sparse correlation matrix, estimation of the differential covariance matrices, and estimation of the differential cross-correlation matrices, are also discussed.

description: Hybride aus reizresponsiven π-konjugierten Polymeren (CPs) und einwandigen Kohlenstoffnanoröhrchen („single walled carbon nanotubes”, SWNTs) könnten durch die synergetische Nutzung der Eigenschaften beider Materialien, insbesondere der Funktionalisierbarkeit von CPs und der hohen Ladungsträgerbeweglichkeiten der SWNTs, sensible Sensormaterialien für unterschiedlichste Reize ermöglichen.
 Im ersten Teil dieser Arbeit ist daher die Synthese von Polyfluorenen vordefinierter Beladung an funktionalisierbaren ω-Carboxylseitenketten und deren Kupplung mit unterschiedlichsten reizresponsiven Molekülen beschrieben. So ließen sich das photochrome Spiropyran, das thermoresponsive Polymer Poly(N-isopropyacrylamid), der Chelatligand 1 Aza 18 krone 6 und ein ionochromes Rhodamin B-Derivat in einem Schritt über eine reaktive Position an Vorläuferpolyfluorene unterschiedlichen mit Beladungsdichten kuppeln. Die Polymere wurden insbesondere über spektroskopische Methoden charakterisiert und teilweise zum Umwickeln von SWNTs eingesetzt. Die mit Spiropyran-funktionalisierten CP/SWNT-Hybridnetzwerke konnten erfolgreich in Transistoren verwendet werden. Sie offerieren eine UV-Licht induzierte Ladungsträgerstabilisierung durch die Merocyanin-Form des Spiropyrans. Die zusätzlich zur Verfügung stehenden Ladungsträger konnten die Leitfähigkeit um zwei Größenordnungen steigern. Dünnschichtfilme dieser CP/SWNT-Hybridnetzwerke offenbarten Potential für die Anwendung in UV-Dosimetern und optischen Speichermedien. Des Weiteren wurden hydrophile Oligoethylenglycol-basierte Copolymere dargestellt, mit denen das An-Aus-Verhältnis, der maximale Source-Drain-Strom und die Transkonduktanz von darauf basierenden CP/SWNT-Elektolyttransistoren deutlich erhöht werden konnten. Im zweiten Teil dieser Arbeit ist die Synthese und Charakterisierung einer neuen Klasse von CPs mit intrinsischer Mikroporosität (c-PIMs) beschrieben. Dazu wurden in einer Dicobaltoctacarbonyl-vermittelten reduktiven Polyolefinierung von tri- beziehungsweise pentazyklischen digeminalen Tetrachloriden unterschiedlichste bistrizyklische aromatische Ene (BAEs) in das Rückgrad von CPs eingebaut. Der Einbau der unterschiedlichen BAE-Strukturen in Poly(para-phenylen-vinylen)-basierte oder verwandte Polymere induzierte eine hohe spezifische Oberfläche von bis zu 760 m²/g. Die Materialien wurden bezüglich ihrer optischen Eigenschaften und ihrer Porosität charakterisiert und zeigen vielversprechende Eigenschaften für eine Anwendung in der Gastrennung/-speicherung und der Sensorik.

description: In this work the Dirac oscillator in $(2+1)$ dimensions is considered. We solve the problem in polar coordinates and discuss the dependence of the energy spectrum on the spin parameter $s$ and angular momentum quantum number $m$. Contrary to earlier attempts, we show that the degeneracy of the energy spectrum can occur for all possible values of $sm$. In an additional analysis, we also show that an isolated bound state solution, excluded from Sturm-Liouville problem, exists.

description: In the course of the work presented here, new ligands for the SI/II binding site of K-RAS4B were developed starting from bisphenols using various medicinal chemistry concepts. In addition to the determination of structure-activity-relationships (SARs), fragment expansion and PROTAC-design were used as further concepts. Computational calculations were used for the identification of active compounds via docking studies and e-learning algorithms. The compounds, most of which were synthesized, were subsequently investigated by the project partners with respect to their binding to K-RAS4B, their influences on underlying biochemical reactions and on cellular effects.

description: We present a framework for designing cheap control architectures for embodied agents. Our derivation is guided by the classical problem of universal approximation, whereby we explore the possibility of exploiting the agent's embodiment for a new and more efficient universal approximation of behaviors generated by sensorimotor control. This embodied universal approximation is compared with the classical non-embodied universal approximation. To exemplify our approach, we present a detailed quantitative case study for policy models defined in terms of conditional restricted Boltzmann machines. In contrast to non-embodied universal approximation, which requires an exponential number of parameters, in the embodied setting we are able to generate all possible behaviors with a drastically smaller model, thus obtaining cheap universal approximation. We test and corroborate the theory experimentally with a six-legged walking machine. The experiments show that the sufficient controller complexity predicted by our theory is tight, which means that the theory has direct practical implications. Keywords: cheap design, embodiment, sensorimotor loop, universal approximation, conditional restricted Boltzmann machine

Contexts, Systems and Modalities: a new ontology for quantum mechanics

description: In this article we present a possible way to make usual quantum mechanics fully compatible with physical realism, defined as the statement that the goal of physics is to study entities of the natural world, existing independently from any particular observer's perception, and obeying universal and intelligible rules. Rather than elaborating on the quantum formalism itself, we propose to modify the quantum ontology, by requiring that physical properties are attributed jointly to the system, and to the context in which it is embedded. In combination with a quantization principle, this non-classical definition of physical reality sheds new light on counter-intuitive features of quantum mechanics such as the origin of probabilities, non-locality, and the quantum-classical boundary.

From the ‘posttraumatic’ to the ‘transtestimonial’: Doron Rabinovici's Die letzten Zeugen (2013) as a corporeal topography of discursive and emotive Holocaust memory

description: This article explores the theatrical witness project Die letzten Zeugen (2013) by the Austrian writer Doron Rabinovici as an example of a methodological transition in Testimony Studies, one which shifts the focus from psychoanalytic engagement with the survivors’ experiences towards a collective approach to testimony at the end of the so-called ‘era of witnesses’. Rabinovici's theatrical witness project cultivates a novel form of simultaneously discursive and emotive engagements with testimony. The article scrutinises the extent to which the physical presence of Holocaust survivors on stage serves as a ‘corporeal topography’, an exploration of the liminal quality of contemporary engagements with testimony in the impending absence of survivors. In so doing, it develops the concept of ‘transtestimony’, a liminal engagement with testimony as both an epistemic and a performative practice.
description: Dieser Artikel untersucht das österreichische Zeitzeugnisprojekt von Doron Rabinovici, Die letzten Zeugen (2013), als Beispiel eines paradigmatischen Wandels innerhalb der Testimony Studies. Dieser methodologische Wandel verschiebt den Fokus von der Auseinandersetzung mit Holocaust¨uberlebenden im Rahmen psychoanalytischer Theorien hin zu einer kollektiven Ann¨aherung an Zeitzeugnisse im Rahmen einer unmittelbar bevorstehenden Erinnerungskultur ohne Zeitzeug*innen. Das Theater-Projekt entwirft eine neue Form der gleichzeitig diskursiven und emotiven Auseinandersetzung mit der Zeitzeug*innenschaft. Der Artikel untersucht, in welchem Maße das Projekt dabei die physische Pr¨asenz von Holocaust-U¨ berlebenden auf der Bu¨hne als sogenannte ‘corporeal topographies’ inszeniert, um auf die Liminalit¨at von Holocaustzeitzeug*innenschaft zu verweisen. Im Rahmen dieser Analyse wird zudem das liminale Konzept von ‘transtestimony’ entwickelt, einer kollektiven Auseinandersetzung mit der Zeitzeug*innenschaft als gleichzeitig performativer Praxis und epistemischer Quelle.

description: The main objective of the SYNTHESYS+ Join Research Activities (JRA) work package is to develop
 ELViS - an integrated European Loans and Visits System to support requests for access to natural
 science collections and DoD services of DiSSCo RI institutions.
 Within the JRA, the Task 6.1 (Structure & design of system: Design system architecture to align with
 future DiSSCo requirements) is concerned with the design of a user interface (UI) that will form the
 basis of the DiSSCo core UI.
 This design process draws in particular on current experiences with similar systems such as the
 Colhelper, an online collection access service created and used by the MNHN since 2006.
 Within this framework, the MNHN has designed a study of the functionality of Colhelper to feed into
 the JRA1 working group on the future functionality of the ELViS UI.
 The document "Colhelper: Study of the targeted functionalities for ELViS, European Loans and
 Visiting System" was elaborated by a study of the existing Colhelper interface and by feedback from
 users (Dispatcher and Collection Manager) of the MNHN.
Revisiting the dispersion measure of fast radio bursts associated with gamma-ray burst afterglows

Year: 2014

description: Some fast radio bursts (FRBs) are expected to be associated with the afterglow emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), while a short-lived, supermassive neutron star (NS) forms during the GRBs. I investigate the possible contributions to the dispersion measure (DM) of the FRBs from the GRB ejecta and the wind blown from the precollapsing NS. On the one hand, sometimes an internal X-ray plateau afterglow could be produced by the NS wind, which indicates that a great number of electron-positron pairs are carried by the wind. If the pair-generation radius satisfies a somewhat rigorous condition, the relativistic and dense wind would contribute a high DM to the associated FRB, which can be comparable to and even exceed the DM contributed by the intergalactic medium. On the other hand, if the wind only carries a Goldreich-Julian particle flux, its DM contribution would become negligible; meanwhile, the internal plateau afterglow would not appear. Alternatively, the FRB should be associated with a GRB afterglow produced by the GRB external shock, i.e., an energy-injection-caused shallow-decay afterglow or a normal single-power-law afterglow if the impulsive energy release of the GRB is high enough. In the latter case, the DM contributed by the high-mass GRB ejecta could be substantially important, in particular, for an environment of main-sequence stellar wind. In summary, a careful assessment on the various DM contributors could be required for the cosmological application of the expected FRB-GRB association. The future DM measurements of GRB-associated FRBs could provide a constraint on the physics of NS winds.

A Composite Higgs Model with Minimal Fine-Tuning I.~The Large-N and Weak-technicolor Limit

description: We suggest a criterion to minimize the amount of fine-tuning in a composite Higgs model. The paradigm of this type of model is the top-condensate model of Bardeen, Hill and Lindner (BHL). Although "minimally fine-tuned", this model failed to account correctly for the masses of the top quark and the 125~GeV Higgs boson. We propose a generalization of the BHL model that employs finely-tuned extended technicolor (ETC) plus technicolor (TC) interactions. The additional freedom of this model may accommodate both m_t(173) and M_H(125). This paper studies the large-N_{TC} and N_C limit of this model in which technicolor is weak and does not contribute to electroweak symmetry breaking. Refinements including walking-TC dynamics and a renormalization group analysis of m_t and M_H will appear in a subsequent paper. A likely generic signal of this model is enhanced production of dibosons (W^+W^- and W^\pm Z^0) and tribosons (W^+W^- Z^0) via rho_T^{0,\pm} and omega_T decay.

description: We create streaming ultracold neutral plasmas by tailoring the photoionizing laser beam that creates the plasma. By varying the electron temperature, we control the relative velocity of the streaming populations, and, in conjunction with variation of the plasma density, this controls the ion collisionality of the colliding streams. Laser-induced fluorescence is used to map the spatially resolved density and velocity distribution function for the ions. We identify the lack of local thermal equilibrium and distinct populations of interpenetrating, counter-streaming ions as signatures of kinetic behavior. Experimental data is compared with results from a one-dimensional, two-fluid numerical simulation.

description: Barrage relays networks (BRNs) are ad hoc networks built on a rapid cooperative flooding primitive as opposed to the traditional point-to-point link abstraction. Controlled barrage regions (CBRs) can be used to contain this flooding primitive for unicast and multicast, thereby enabling spatial reuse. In this paper, the behavior of individual CBRs is described as a Markov process that models the potential cooperative relay transmissions. The outage probability for a CBR is found in closed form for a given topology, and the probability takes into account fading and co-channel interference (CCI) between adjacent CBRs. Having adopted this accurate analytical framework, this paper proceeds to optimize a BRN by finding the optimal size of each CBR, the number of relays contained within each CBR, the optimal relay locations when they are constrained to lie on a straight line, and the code rate that maximizes the transport capacity.

description: We propose a model of cosmological evolution of the early and late Universe which is consistent with observational data and naturally explains the origin of inflation and dark energy. We show that the de Sitter accelerated expansion of the FLRW space with no matter fields (hereinafter, empty space) is its natural state, and the model does not require either a scalar field or cosmological constant or any other hypotheses. This is due to the fact that the de Sitter state is an exact solution of the rigorous mathematically consistent equations of one-loop quantum gravity for the empty FLRW space that are finite off the mass shell. Space without matter fields is not empty, as it always has the natural quantum fluctuations of the metric, i.e. gravitons. Therefore, the empty (in this sense) space is filled with gravitons, which have the backreaction effect on its evolution over time forming a self-consistent de Sitter instanton leading to the exponentially accelerated expansion of the Universe. At the start and the end of cosmological evolution, the Universe is assumed to be empty, which explains the origin of inflation and dark energy. This scenario leads to the prediction that the signs of the parameter 1+w should be opposite in both cases, and this fact is consistent with observations. The fluctuations of the number of gravitons lead to fluctuations of their energy density which in turn leads to the observed CMB temperature anisotropy of the order of 10^-5 and CMB polarization. In the frame of this scenario, it is not a hypothetical scalar field that generates inflation and relic gravitational waves but on the contrary, the gravitational waves (gravitons) generate dark energy, inflation, CMB anisotropy and polarization.

description: We establish features of so-called Yangian secret symmetries for AdS3 type IIB superstring backgrounds thus verifying the persistence of such symmetries to this new instance of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Specifically, we find two a priori different classes of secret symmetry generators. One class of generators, anticipated from the previous literature, is more naturally embedded in the algebra governing the integrable scattering problem. The other class of generators is more elusive, and somewhat closer in its form to its higher-dimensional AdS5 counterpart. All of these symmetries respect left-right crossing. In addition, by considering the interplay between left and right representations, we gain a new perspective on the AdS5 case. We also study the RTT-realisation of the Yangian in AdS3 backgrounds thus establishing a new incarnation of the Beisert-de Leeuw construction.

Reconciling the observed star-forming sequence with the observed stellar mass function

description: We examine the connection between the observed star-forming sequence (SFR $\propto$ $M^α$) and the observed evolution of the stellar mass function between $0.2 < z < 2.5$. We find the star-forming sequence cannot have a slope $α$ $\lesssim$ 0.9 at all masses and redshifts, as this would result in a much higher number density at $10 < \log(\mathrm{M/M_{\odot}}) < 11$ by $z=1$ than is observed. We show that a transition in the slope of the star-forming sequence, such that $α=1$ at $\log(\mathrm{M/M_{\odot}})<10.5$ and $α=0.7-0.13z$ ({Whitaker} {et~al.} 2012) at $\log(\mathrm{M/M_{\odot}})>10.5$, greatly improves agreement with the evolution of the stellar mass function. We then derive a star-forming sequence which reproduces the evolution of the mass function by design. This star-forming sequence is also well-described by a broken-power law, with a shallow slope at high masses and a steep slope at low masses. At $z=2$, it is offset by $\sim$0.3 dex from the observed star-forming sequence, consistent with the mild disagreement between the cosmic SFR and recent observations of the growth of the stellar mass density. It is unclear whether this problem stems from errors in stellar mass estimates, errors in SFRs, or other effects. We show that a mass-dependent slope is also seen in other self-consistent models of galaxy evolution, including semi-analytical, hydrodynamical, and abundance-matching models. As part of the analysis, we demonstrate that neither mergers nor hidden low-mass quiescent galaxies are likely to reconcile the evolution of the mass function and the star-forming sequence. These results are supported by observations from {Whitaker} {et~al.} (2014).

description: Characteristic of the North African bowls, plates, and jugs are their pictorial decorations applied mainly by appliqués and stamps. As mass-produced image carriers and everyday objects, the ARS spread throughout the empire. The range of motifs includes mythological scenes as well as scenes from the Old and New Testament, circus, arena and hunting scenes as well as fish and plant motifs. The appliqués-decorated pottery thus provides insights into Late Antique imagination and its changes, as well as into the economic history of the period between the 3rd and 5th centuries AD in North Africa. Previous documentation methods were not able to capture the objects and their decoration in an adequate way. The digital recording of the RGZM's collections by 3D scans allows to compare potentially identical appliqués and to assign them to their negative forms and the corresponding stamps. Whereas vessel curvature previously falsified the assignment of appliqués and models, 3D analysis and visualisation tools now allow a comparison . Metadata created for each object increases the effectiveness and accuracy of determining image context and content. Issues related to the production of the ARS and the process flows within the workshops can be investigated through the analysis of the 3D data. The developed ontology uses CIDOC CRM and various extensions. The data mainly consists of objects (E24), on which e.g. applications (features, E25) can be found. These objects can be described semantically, e.g. by the shape or time epoch. Features are described with observations, e.g. a human type man standing and wearing a beard. These observations lead to interpretations whose arguments can be observations.

description: Ziel dieser Forschung ist es die Push- und Pull-Faktoren für ein Engagement in sozialen Innovationen, die sich mit dem Thema Lebensmittelverschwendung befassen, zu identifizieren. Soziale Bewegungen wie Foodsharing e.V. bergen das Potenzial, das jetzige, nicht nachhaltige Ernährungssystem herauszufordern. Daher muss ein niedrigschwelliger Zugang zu ebendiesen garantiert werden, um eine kritische Masse zu erreichen. Diese Forschungsarbeit zielt darauf ab, mit Hilfe von Interviews der Frage nachzugehen, „welche Faktoren zu welchen Teilen zur ungleichen Verteilung von Engagement in Foodsharing e.V. in Köln, Deutschland beitragen“. Es zeigt sich, dass Teilnehmer:innen mit hauptsächlich ideologischer Motivation eine größere Beteiligung zeigen als solche, die primär von instrumenteller Motivation angetrieben werden.. Zusätzlich stellt diese Arbeit heraus, dass sowohl das direkte soziale Umfeld der Teilnehmer:innen, als auch Stadtteilcharakteristika einen Einfluss auf die Einsatzwilligkeit haben. Daraus resultiert eine ungleiche Verteilung. Diese Erkenntnisse spiegeln den jetzigen Forschungsstand wider, bieten allerdings auch eine neue qualitative Datengrundlage, insbesondere im Bezug auf Teilnehmer:innen außerhalb des offizielle Foodsharing Rahmen. Dies wirft Fragen zum Umgang mit ICT in sozialen Innovationen sowie Fragen nach Gerechtigkeit und Privilegien in umweltpolitischen Bewegungen auf.
description: The aim of this research is to unravel drivers and disincentives to partake in social innovations dealing with food waste. Bearing a potential to challenge the contemporary unsustainable food system, a broad accessibility to these movements must be ensured when aiming to reach a critical mass. Therefore, by interviewing Foodsharing participants from WhatsApp groups, this research examines ‘what factors contribute to which degree to the unequal distribution of participation in Foodsharing e.V. in Cologne, Germany’. It shows that participants with mainly ideological motivations participate in Foodsharing the most, whereas those primarily guided by instrumental factors engage the least. Results also reveal that both, participants’ direct social circles as well as neighbourhood characteristics can have an influence on participation which result in unequal distribution outcomes. The findings partly resemble previous studies but also provide new, qualitative knowledge, especially on participants outside the official Foodsharing framework, raising new questions on the usage of ICT in social innovations and equity and privilege in environmental movements.

description: We study the compatibility of the unitarity bound and the 8TeV LHC on the effective theory of the scalar dark matter. In several signals of effective interactions, mono-jet with missing energy events are studied. We found that, at least, if the dark matter mass is about 800GeV or heavier, contributions of events violating the unitarity are not negligible. The unitarity conditions in the 14TeV LHC are also calculated.

description: Security incidents in blockchain-based systems are frequent nowadays, which calls for more structured efforts in incident reporting and response. To improve the current status quo of reporting incidents on blogs and social media, we propose a decentralized incident reporting and discussion system. Our approach guides users (security novices) towards a classification of their observations using a tiered taxonomy of blockchain incidents. Questions based on previous incidents interactively support the classification. Post submission a security incident response committee then discusses these observations on our decentralized platform to decide on an appropriate response. For evaluation, we implement our model as a decentralized application and demonstrate its practical suitability in a preliminary user study.

Matching the linear spectra of twinlike defects
Creators: name: Zhong, Yuan

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Twinlike defects refer to topological defect solutions of some apparently different field models that share the same defect configuration and the same energy density. Usually, one can distinguish twinlike defects in terms of their linear spectra, but in some special cases twinlike defects even share the same linear spectrum. In this paper, we derive the algebraic conditions for two twinlike defects to share identical linear spectrum from the viewpoint of the normal modes of the linear fluctuations. We also extend our discussion to braneworld models, where gravity plays an important role.

description: Целью статьи является изучение особенностей Фолклендского конфликта и его значения для Латинской Америки. Исследуются содержание, факторы, препятствующие завершению конфликта, предлагается возможный путь его решения. Определение ключевых характеристик конфликта позволяет осуществить анализ работ российских и зарубежных ученых, посвященных исследуемой проблеме. Сделан вывод о том, что данный конфликт значительно повлиял на отношения между Аргентиной и Великобританией: данный конфликт не только препятствует нормализации отношений и взаимодействию по различным важным для обеих сторон вопросам, но также отрицательно сказался на перспективах развития отношений между странами Латинской Америки, Европейского союза в целом и Великобритании. Установлено, что важную роль играет позиция Великобритании, которая заключается в стремлении к сотрудничеству со странами региона и одновременно в решительном отказе уступать в конфликте вокруг островов и что Аргентина занимает подобную позицию.
Dynamical response of dissipative helical edge states

description: Quantum spin Hall insulators are characterized by topologically protected counterpropagating edge states. Here we study the dynamical response of these helical edge states under a time-dependent flux biasing, in the presence of a heat bath. It is shown that the relaxation time of the edge carriers can be determined from a measurement of the dissipative response of topological insulator disks. The effects of various perturbations, including Zeeman coupling and disorder, are also discussed.

description: Статья посвящена советско-иранским отношениям в преддверии вступления Советского Союза в Великую Отечественную войну 1941 1945 гг. Накануне войны отношения между СССР и Ираном были особенно острыми, поскольку иранский шах не просто налаживал экономические связи с Гитлером, но и рассчитывал на политическое и военное сотрудничество, которое помогло бы освободить его страну от влияния иностранных государств. У СССР с Ираном была хорошая основа для сотрудничества. Речь идет об основополагающем Договоре 1921 г., подписанным Чичериным, Карахином и иранским послом Али Галиханом Ансари, а также Договор 1927 г. «О гарантиях и нейтралитете, подписанного теми же лицами. На их основе закладывались добрососедские отношения между двумя государствами, решались многие проблемы.

Crime and Cryptocurrency in Australian Courts
Creators: name: Lane, Aaron

Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: classificationCode: 480401
subject: Criminal law

description: This article presents the findings of the first empirical study of reported Australian case law involving Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies between 2009 and 2020. The initial dataset consists of 103 cases, with 59 criminal decisions and 44 other decisions. Focusing on criminal proceedings, the study finds that cryptocurrency has been considered in the context of bail, extradition, restraining orders, trials and sentencing. Significantly, the study finds that the use of cryptocurrency in the commission of an offence is seen by courts as a factor that tends to increase the sophistication or seriousness of the offence — becoming an aggravating factor in sentencing — and leads the court to consider general deterrence above other sentencing purposes.

Relative Categoricity and Abstraction Principles

description: Many recent writers in the philosophy of mathematics have put great weight on the relative categoricity of the traditional axiomatizations of our foundational theories of arithmetic and set theory (\cite{Parsons1990a}, \cite{Parsons2008} §{49}, \cite{McGee1997aa}, \cite{Lavine1999aa}, \cite{Vaananen2014aa}). Another great enterprise in contemporary philosophy of mathematics has been Wright's and Hale's project of founding mathematics on abstraction principles (\cite{Hale2001}, \cite{Cook2007aa}). In \cite{Walsh2012aa}, it was noted that one traditional abstraction principle, namely Hume's Principle, had a certain relative categoricity property, which here we term \emph{natural relative categoricity}. In this paper, we show that most other abstraction principles are \emph{not} naturally relatively categorical, so that there is in fact a large amount of incompatibility between these two recent trends in contemporary philosophy of mathematics. To better understand the precise demands of relative categoricity in the context of abstraction principles, we compare and contrast these constraints to (i) stability-like acceptability criteria on abstraction principles (cf. \cite{Cook2012aa}), (ii) the Tarski-Sher logicality requirements on abstraction principles studied by Antonelli \cite{Antonelli2010aa} and Fine~\cite{Fine2002}, and (iii) supervaluational ideas coming out of Hodes' work \cite{Hodes1984, Hodes1990aa, Hodes1991}.

title: The Subprime Remediation: Efforts in Reducing the Effects of Predatory Lending during the Great Recession
Creators: name: Poyner, Adam
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: During the subprime mortgage crisis of the early 2000’s, predatory mortgage lending practices were the leading cause for the housing bubble burst. A surge in unequivocal risk in the favor of mortgage lenders stripped the consumer of their financial abilities as a result of de-regulated lending packages and the packaging of such loans in the secondary market. As the crisis unfolded, policymakers and financial regulators implemented measures to address the issues and prevent a similar catastrophe from occurring in the future. Bank bailouts and other forms of reparations were dispersed over the span of nearly five years to recover from the global incident.
