description: This paper introduces a novel framework for the solution of (large-scale) Lyapunov and Sylvester equations derived from numerical integration methods. Suitable systems of ordinary differential equations are introduced. Low-rank approximations of their solutions are produced by Runge-Kutta methods. Appropriate Runge-Kutta methods are identified following the idea of geometric numerical integration to preserve a geometric property, namely a low rank residual. For both types of equations we prove the equivalence of one particular instance of the resulting algorithm to the well known ADI iteration. As the general approach suggested here leads to complex valued computation even for real problems, we present a general realification approach based on similarity transformation.

description: The Einstein AdS black brane with a cloud of strings background in context of massive gravity is introduced. There is a momentum dissipation on the boundary because of graviton mass on the bulk. The ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density is calculated for this solution. This value violates the KSS bound if we apply the Dirichlet boundary and regularity on the horizon conditions. Our result shows that this value is independent of the cloud of strings.

The Nature and Location of Quantum Information

description: Quantum information is defined by applying the concepts of ordinary (Shannon) information theory to a quantum sample space consisting of a single framework or consistent family. A classical analogy for a spin-half particle and other arguments show that the infinite amount of information needed to specify a precise vector in its Hilbert space is not a measure of the information carried by a quantum entity with a $d$-dimensional Hilbert space; the latter is, instead, bounded by log d bits (1 bit per qubit). The two bits of information transmitted in dense coding are located not in one but in the correlation between two qubits, consistent with this bound. A quantum channel can be thought of as a "structure" or collection of frameworks, and the physical location of the information in the individual frameworks can be used to identify the location of the channel. Analysis of a quantum circuit used as a model of teleportation shows that the location of the channel depends upon which structure is employed; for ordinary teleportation it is not (contrary to Deutsch and Hayden) present in the two bits resulting from the Bell-basis measurement, but in correlations of these with a distant qubit. In neither teleportation nor dense coding does information travel backwards in time, nor is it transmitted by nonlocal (superluminal) influences. It is (tentatively) proposed that all aspects of quantum information can in principle be understood in terms of the (basically classical) behavior of information in a particular framework, along with the framework dependence of this information.

Two Arrows of Time in Nonlocal Particle Dynamics

description: Considering what the world would be like if backwards causation were possible is usually mind-bending. Here I discuss something that is easier to study: a toy model that incorporates a very restricted sort of backwards causation. It defines particle world lines by means of a kind of differential delay equation with negative delay. The model presumably prohibits signalling to the past and superluminal signalling, but allows nonlocality while being fully covariant. And that is what constitutes the model's value: it is an explicit example of the possibility of Lorentz invariant nonlocality. That is surprising in so far as many authors thought that nonlocality, in particular nonlocal laws for particle world lines, must conflict with relativity. The development of this model was inspired by the search for a fully covariant version of Bohmian mechanics.

Realistic single-particle energies and quadrupole-quadrupole and pairing interaction strengths fixed from systematics were used in the calculations. The strengths of four rotor-like terms, all small relative to the other terms in the interaction, were adjusted to give an overall best fit to the energy spectra. The procedure yielded consistent parameter sets for the four nuclei.

description: Being one of FinTech's most innovative operating tools in the age of 4.0, crowdfunding is one of the ways that is used to raise money without financial intermediations. This method helps companies and individuals worldwide raise millions of dollars from members of the public with low capital-cost, however, factors impacted on the success or failure of new kind of funds mobilizing method still be a controversial topic. Accordingly, the author aims at clarifying the influence of founders on the success of crowdfunding in Vietnam by primary data collected from questionnaire survey with Logistic Regression Model and Multiple Linear Regression Model. Based on the results, recommendations were proposed for founders to develop the modern kind of financial tools.

description: Music is one of the most formidable, universal and reverent ways of communicating. It is a pre-eminent tool in the expression of fluid and temporal identity work during adolescence and across the lifespan. Having been long affiliated with youth cultures, popular music produces much of the material out of which young people fashion their identity claims and make sense of their individual and collective experiences. Moreover, music consumption, listening and music-making practices assist in the navigation of a broad range of intrapsychic and collective challenges for global youth. Youth culture scholarship has privileged music and youth cultures through the traditional lens of the metropole and the urban. Narratives of urban youth continue to be analysed within youth culture scholarship and the academic fields of popular music. This research aims to fill gaps in sociological cultural research concerned with rural youth cultures, rural music scenes and their impact on identity and mental health. The project investigates young people and their relationship with music within the rural locale known by the First Nations people of Western Australia as ngala kaadatj nidja Wadandi Boodja (Country), also referred to as the Margaret River region in the south-west coastal corner of Western Australia. Overlaid with the complexity of Margaret River’s regional and rural locale are its geographic isolation, tourism trends for lifestyle and a coastal culture that gives the region particular socio-cultural nuances. The aim of this ethnographic study was to enable access to local stories that are generally under-represented due to the urban focus that exists in youth culture scholarship. The study contributes to research on rural youth cultures, rural music scenes, identity, mental health discourses and popular music studies. [...]

Subjects: subject: Heterosexuality
subject: Feminism
subject: Sexual politics

description: This dissertation sets out to re-describe (hetero)sexuality as a theoretical and political problem for feminism. I pursue this task two ways: by historicising both heterosexuality and feminist sexual politics, and by critically assessing the effects of the conceptions of subjectivity and power that have shaped primary feminist approaches to sexuality. I begin this project by examining a specific feminist attitude of antagonism towards post-structuralist theories, and drawing out its underlying ideal of feminism as a closed and coherent theoretical and political system. I argue that this conception of ‘proper’ feminist theory and politics has significant bearing on how sexuality – especially heterosexuality – can be conceived and dealt with. I also take up alternative feminist responses to post-structuralist theories: engagements which reflect very different notions of feminism generally, of subjectivity and power, and consequently, of (hetero)sexual politics. In the last two chapters, I examine some specific problems of sexuality, including anti-rape politics, and debates over the sexualisation of culture, in order to test the utility of the post-structuralist-influenced approach I have developed. Throughout the dissertation, I avoid a sole focus on corrective, theoretical critique, aiming to also acknowledge the significance of emotional affect, and historical location.

Predominant studies have focused on Western nations and little information is known about the Chinese market and its wine tourists' travelling motivations. This study addresses three research questions (RQ) about (1) the product offering, (2) the tourist experience in this market, and (3) the Chinese culture-related values as motivation--and their impacts on wine tourists' attitude towards wine tourism. Findings of an exploratory study used 3 phases to answer these questions. [...]
Analytically parameterized solutions for robust quantum control using smooth pulses

description: Achieving high-fidelity control of quantum systems is essential for realization of a practical quantum computer. Composite pulse sequences which suppress different types of errors can be nested to suppress a wide variety of errors but the result is often not optimal, especially in the presence of constraints such as bandwidth limitations. Robust smooth pulse shaping provides flexibility, but obtaining such analytical pulse shapes is a non-trivial problem, and choosing the appropriate parameters typically requires a numerical search in a high-dimensional space. In this work, we extend a previous analytical treatment of robust smooth pulses to allow the determination of pulse parameters without numerical search. We also show that the problem can be reduced to a set of coupled ordinary differential equations which allows for a more streamlined numerical treatment.

description: This study develops a set of evaluation criteria and a framework for evaluating English learning websites for advanced-level learners, to assist English teachers, course designers and interface designers develop effective sites for advanced users of English and help them screen appropriate and reliable sites to use to improve students’ English ability. To fulfil this objective, a three-phase research procedure has been employed: (a) establishing a preliminary set of criteria from a review of the literature; (b) evaluating and refining the preliminary criteria by distributing a questionnaire to advanced learners and assessing its findings; and (c) validating and finalising the criteria according to the fit between advanced user needs and preliminary criteria identified in the previous phases. The established criteria are classified into two parts: pay-website fit, which includes the three criteria of user fit, material fit and environment fit, and dimensions of language learning, which includes the five criteria of language learning potential, meaning focus, positive impact, authenticity and practicality. Based on qualitative and quantitative analyses of advanced users’ opinions of three ESL/EFL pay-websites, the effectiveness of criteria developed for evaluating such sites are confirmed. With this framework and criteria, the goal is to enable teachers, website designers and course designers to develop quality English language learning websites and to be able to judge reliably the appropriateness of English learning websites for advanced users. This in turn will help learners to increase their English ability more effectively and conveniently when using these websites.

description: Recent developments in compact object astrophysics, especially the discovery of merging neutron stars by LIGO, the imaging of the black hole in M87 by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) and high precision astrometry of the Galactic Center at close to the event horizon scale by the GRAVITY experiment motivate the development of numerical source models that solve the equations of general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD). Here we compare GRMHD solutions for the evolution of a magnetized accretion flow where turbulence is promoted by the magnetorotational instability from a set of nine GRMHD codes: Athena++, BHAC, Cosmos++, ECHO, H-AMR, iharm3D, HARM-Noble, IllinoisGRMHD and KORAL. Agreement between the codes improves as resolution increases, as measured by a consistently applied, specially developed set of code performance metrics. We conclude that the community of GRMHD codes is mature, capable, and consistent on these test problems.

description: Conventional searches for new phenomena at collider experiments tend to focus on prompt particles, produced at the interaction point and decaying rapidly. New physics models including long-lived particles that travel a substantial distance in the detectors before decaying provide an interesting alternative, especially in light of the lack of new phenomena at the current LHC experiments, and could solve unanswered questions of the Standard Model. Long-lived particles have characteristic experimental signatures that, while making them clearly distinct from other processes, also could make them potentially invisible to current data-acquisition methods. Specific trigger strategies need to be in place to target long-lived particles. In this paper, we investigate the use of tracker information at trigger level to identify displaced signatures. We propose two methods that can be implemented at hardware-level: one based on the Hough transform, and another based on pattern matching with patterns trained on displaced tracks.

description: This study examined the implications of stock market statistics on share price index, using daily data for the period from 1/03/1994 to 9/28/2018 (5932 Observations) on the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE). The main objectives of the study were to assess the significant relationship between stock market statistics and share price index and to investigate the co-integration between the variables. The study adopted the ex-post facto research design. Daily market capitalization, daily share traded, and daily turnover equity was used as the proxies for the stock market statistics. Daily All Share Price Index (ASPI) was used as the proxy for the stock price index. Augmented Dickey Fuller test was used to find out the stationery of the data series, and the results of the test showed that ASPI data and stock market statistics were stationary. The Granger Causality test was used to check any causal relationship between variables revealed that, there is a one-way causal relationship between variables. The result of the regression shown that daily market capitalization was found to be a significant positive relationship with ASPI, daily share traded equity was found to be an insignificant relationship with ASPI and daily turnover equity was found to be an insignificant relationship with ASPI. In line with the findings of this study, it recommends that the CSE should build policies and potential investors should make the strategies in terms of share trading volume to enhance the stock market liquidity.

Baseline-free Quantitative Absorption Spectroscopy Based on Cepstral Analysis

description: The accuracy of quantitative absorption spectroscopy depends on correctly distinguishing molecular absorption signatures in a measured transmission spectrum from the varying intensity or "baseline" of the light source. Baseline correction becomes particularly difficult when the measurement involves complex, broadly absorbing molecules or non-ideal transmission effects such as etalons. We demonstrate a technique that eliminates the need to account for the laser intensity in absorption spectroscopy by converting the measured transmission spectrum of a gas sample to a modified form of the time-domain molecular free induction decay (m-FID) using a cepstral analysis technique developed for audio signal processing. Much of the m-FID signal is temporally separated from and independent of the source intensity, and this portion can be fit directly with a model to determine sample gas properties without correcting for the light source intensity. We validate the new approach in several complex absorption spectroscopy scenarios and discuss its limitations. The technique is applicable to spectra obtained with any absorption spectrometer and provides a fast and accurate approach for analyzing complex spectra.
Fractional Kinetics for Relaxation and Superdiffusion in Magnetic Field

description: We propose fractional Fokker-Planck equation for the kinetic description of relaxation and superdiffusion processes in constant magnetic and random electric fields. We assume that the random electric field acting on a test charged particle is isotropic and possesses non-Gaussian Levy stable statistics. These assumptions provide us with a straightforward possibility to consider formation of anomalous stationary states and superdiffusion processes, both properties are inherent to strongly non-equilibrium plasmas of solar systems and thermonuclear devices. We solve fractional kinetic equations, study the properties of the solution, and compare analytical results with those of numerical simulation based on the solution of the Langevin equations with the noise source having Levy stable probability density. We found, in particular, that the stationary states are essentially non-Maxwellian ones and, at the diffusion stage of relaxation, the characteristic displacement of a particle grows superdiffusively with time and is inversely proportional to the magnetic field.

Generalised route to effective field theories for quantum systems with local constraints

description: Some of the exciting phenomena uncovered in strongly correlated systems in recent years - for instance quantum topological order, deconfined quantum criticality, and emergent gauge symmetries -- appear in systems in which the Hilbert space is effectively projected at low energies in a way that imposes local constraints on the original degrees of freedom. Cases in point include spin liquids, valence bond systems, dimer models, and vertex models. In this work, we use a slave boson description coupled to a large-$S$ path integral formulation to devise a generalised route to obtain effective field theories for such systems. We demonstrate the validity and capability of our approach by studying quantum dimer models and by comparing our results with the existing literature. Field-theoretic approaches to date are limited to bipartite lattices, they depend on a gauge-symmetric understanding of the constraint, and they lack generic quantitative predictive power for the coefficients of the terms that appear in the Lagrangians of these systems. Our method overcomes all these shortcomings and we show how the results up to quadratic order compare with the known height description of the square lattice quantum dimer model, as well as with the numerical estimate of the speed of light of the photon excitations on the diamond lattice. Finally, instanton considerations allow us to infer properties of the finite-temperature behaviour in two dimensions.

Burial patterns of the Chou period : the location and arrangement of cemeteries in Northern China, 1000-200 BC
Creators: name: Munford, Theresa

description: One of the most significant results of the last sixty years of scientific archaeology in China has been the excavation of many thousands of Chou period tombs. These finds have reinforced the picture which emerges from traditional textual sources of burial being an important ritual and symbolic act involving the expenditure of vast resources. This study focuses on one particular aspect of the material evidence that of the physical location of burials, to explore what this may reveal about Chou burial practices and to investigate the potential of this kind of data for the study of wider historical questions. The approach taken is to look first at the siting of cemeteries in terms of the physical and human features of the landscape, and then to focus on the arrangement of graves within cemeteries and the placing of individual burials. At all stages of the investigation the archaeological data are critically assessed and their interpretative potential evaluated. The first stage of this investigation draws on data from areas where extensive excavation has yielded a fairly comprehensive picture of the patterns of human activity. By piecing together the available information on settlement and cemetery sites, chronological changes in placing of burial grounds are observed and these are correlated with development in urban forms over the Chou period. The examination of the arrangement of graves within cemeteries utilizes the archaeological data from sites where large numbers of tombs have been excavated. This section of the study draws particular attention to the problems of assessing and dating fragmentary material evidence, and to the way in which the groupings of the dead may or may not be used to understand the social groupings of the living. Finally, the study of the placing of individual burials is chiefly concerned with examining the extent to which formulae for grave placement outlined in traditional sources may be found to have been applied in the Chou period.

description: This thesis presents an Australian-oriented cross-cultural study of attitudes towards non-human animal species. It is divided into three sections. In the first section, ideas and considerations of five Australian philosophers - H.J. McCloskey, John Passmore, Peter Singer, and Val Plumwood and Richard Sylvan - are surveyed. This section is divided into three parts: morally relevant characteristics, arguments for recognizing moral consideration, and calls for new ethics. In the first part, the possibility of non-human animals possessing morally relevant characteristics such as interests, self-awareness, moral autonomy, rationality and a soul are considered and doubt is cast on these characteristics being exclusive to humans. In the second part, instrumental, prudential, and extension arguments and rights are considered. Advantages and disadvantages of each type of argument are given. In the third part, deep green theory and deep ecology are considered as answers to calls for a new environmental ethic. In the second section, attitudes and practices of Australian Aborigines are given. This section is also divided into three parts: an overview of Aboriginal attitudes and worldviews, the attitudes and practices of the Wik of North Queensland, and the attitudes and practices of the Aranda of central Australia. In each of these parts the ways in which Aborigines relate to their environment and non-human animal species is considered within the framework of the four-fold relationship of people, landscape, ancestral beings, and totemism. The third section is a discussion of what Aboriginal attitudes and practices can contribute to the resolution of some of the problems presented in the first section. It is concluded that Aboriginal attitudes and practices can do little to solve the problems of non-Aborigines, if non-Aborigines remain within the current dominate social paradigm. Aborigines can provide inspiration for changes. Principally, this is inspiration for developing an alternative environmentally-oriented paradigm, rather than inspiration for changes in specific practices.

description: The 'April Theses' submitted by Lenin to the Central Committee of the Bolshevik Party early in 1917 included a call for the foundation of a new international socialist movement to guide and coordinate world communism.'*' In Lenin's opinion there were two main imperatives for such an organisation: the need to provide an alternative to the reformist (as opposed to revolutionary) Second International; and the perceived imminence of socialist revolution throughout Europe. The First Congress of the Communist International subsequently convened in Moscow in March 1919, by which time the Bolsheviks had seized state power in Russia and revolutionary prospects elsewhere still appeared favourable. Under Lenin's forceful patronage, the Comintern seemed set to play a leading role in the attempt to realise those prospects.

description: The tourism sector is expected to be the savior of the economy in Indonesia, amid the weakening rupiah exchange rate. This research was conducted with the aim to measure the level of competitiveness of tourist villages in Indonesia. This research is important because of the contribution it makes to the tourism village development which is one of the tools to alleviate poverty in rural areas. Tourism village communities are required to play an active role in the village tourism business, in order to improve their own welfare using their own potential and capabilities. The study was conducted in the village of Ngrawan, Semarang Regency, Indonesia. The Competitiveness Monitor, built by the World Travel and Tourism Council, is the analytical tool used to measure the level of tourism competitiveness in this study. The measurements used in the Competitiveness Monitor consist of the Tourism Participation Index, Purchasing Power Parity, Infrastructure Development Indicators, Environment Indicators, Technology Advancement Indicators, Human Resources Indicators, Open Indicators, and Social Development Indicators. These indicators are then used as the basis for mapping the tourist village competitiveness index. The results of the study indicate that the tourist village of Ngrawan occupies a top position, among other tourist villages. This is evidenced by its ranking position based on the tourist village attributes. These attributes include product services that affect customers. However, the products are not what customer's look for, so, customers tend to be dissatisfied. The attributes that are considered superior in the tourist village of Ngrawan, are the Openness Indicator and Social Development Indicator. Nevertheless, the village is low in value with attributes relate to Technology Advancement Indicator Attribute, Tourism Participation Index, Infrastructure Development Indicator and Environment. These attributes are related to indicators of competitiveness unlike to other tourist villages. This finding is the basic information that the Indonesian government can use to formulate tourism sector development policies so as to achieve success in developing tourism villages.

description: Most of the devices in the SLAC control system are accessed via interface modules in ~450 CAMAC crates. Low-cost controllers in these crates communicate via a SLAC-proprietary bit-serial protocol with 77 satellite control computers ("micros") within the accelerator complex. A proposed upgrade replaces the existing Multibus-I implementation of the micro hardware with commercial-off-the-shelf ("COTS") personal computers. For increased reliability and ease of maintenance, these micros will move from their current electrically noisy and environmentally challenging sites to the control center's computer room, with only a stand-alone portion of each micro's CAMAC interface remaining in the micro's original location. This paper describes the hardware/software architecture of that intelligent front-end CAMAC controller and the accompanying fiber optic link board that connects it to the PC-based micro's PCI bus. Emphasis is placed on the hardware/software techniques employed to minimize real-time latency for pulse-to-pulse operations that control accelerator timing, acquire data for fast feedback loops, and change device settings to close those loops. The controller provides the sole interface between the COTS computing/networking environment and the existing CAMAC plant. It also supports higher bandwidth commercial byte-serial crate controllers and legacy BITBUS hardware.

description: The energy of fluctuating electromagnetic field is investigated for the thermal Casimir force acting between parallel plates made of real metal. It is proved that for nondissipative media with temperature independent dielectric permittivity the energy at nonzero temperature comprises of the (renormalized) energies of the zero-point and thermal photons. In this manner photons can be considered as collective elementary excitations of the matter of plates and electromagnetic field. If the dielectric permittivity depends on temperature the energy contains additional terms proportional to the derivatives of dielectric permittivity with respect to temperature, and the quasiparticle interpretation of the fluctuating field is not possible. The correlation between energy and free energy is considered. Previous calculations of the Casimir energy in the framework of the Lifshitz formula at zero temperature and optical tabulated data supplemented by the Drude model at room temperature are analysed. It is demonstrated that this quantity is not a good approximation either for the free energy or the energy. A physical interpretation of this hybrid quantity is suggested. The contradictory results in the recent literature on whether the zero-frequency term of the Lifshitz formula for the perpendicular polarized modes has any effective contribution to the physical quantities are discussed. Four main approaches to the resolution of this problem are specified. The precise expressions for entropy of the fluctuating field between plates made of real metal are obtained, which helps to decide between the different approaches. The conclusion is that the Lifshitz formula supplemented by the plasma model and the surface impedance approach are best suited to describe the thermal Casimir force between real metals.
