History

description: This thesis is a critical history of ideas—or a history of repressed and repressive ideas (and histories)—that analyses how liberal internationalism, in the form of human rights, presses upon, covers over, brushes against, interacts with, or is used instrumentally by Indigenous activism and political life. By situating these interactions between human rights and Indigenous political life in the context of settler colonialism, it aims to bring out the complexity of a politics of (ref)usal that permeates this relationship, in this context. First, the thesis reads critiques of human rights against emerging literature in settler colonial studies, showing how the irreducible element of an eliminatory drive for land, which characterizes settler colonialism, is not accounted for in the existing critical literature on human rights. Second, it presents a critical history of the normative evolution of the right to self-determination in both law and discourse as these relate to Indigenous peoples, showing how the norm is constructed both to make illegible other forms of Indigenous political life and to reify anthropological tropes about Indigenous culture. Third, it tests proposals for ‘saving’ human rights from its colonial-hegemonic past—by repoliticizing it—against writing on settler decolonization, to ask about the role of human rights in/as decolonial politics. The thesis, finally, considers how the normative and historical terrain it has mapped might help us think through the politics of human rights and Indigenous activism (namely, the Idle No More movement) in Canada in light of Justin Trudeau’s election as Prime Minister in October, 2015. Ultimately, the aim of this work is to interrogate the normative political optics of the settler state—what it can and cannot make legible—as it makes use of liberal internationalist discourse to make illegible (to eliminate from view) other, Indigenous, modes of political life which stubbornly (politically) refuse this imposition.

description: The main goal of this project is to develop a parallel tetrahedral mesh generator based on existing sequential mesh generation software. As sequential mesh generation software, the Netgen mesh generator was used due to its availability as LGPL open source software and its wide user base. Parallel mesh generation routines were developed using the MPI libraries and the C++ language. The parallel mesh generation algorithms developed proceed by decomposing the whole geometry into a number of sub-geometries sequentially on a master node at the beginning and then mesh each sub-geometry in parallel on multiple processors. Three methods were implemented. The first decomposes the CAD geometry and produces conforming surface sub-meshes that are sent to other processors for volume mesh generation. The second and third methods are refinement based methods that also make use of the CAD geometry information. Advantages and disadvantages of each method are discussed. Parallel repartitioning also need to be done in the first method. To facilitate distributed element movements in parallel, a migration algorithm that utilizes "owner updates" rule is developed. Timing results obtained on the Curie supercomputer are presented. In particular, results show that by using a refinement based method, one can generate over a billion element meshes in under a minute.

description: An ensemble of quasi-periodic discrete Schrödinger operators with an arbitrary number of basic frequencies is considered, in a lattice of arbitrary dimension, in which the hull function is a realisation of a stationary Gaussian process on the torus. We show that, for almost every element of the ensemble, the quasi-periodic operator boasts Anderson localization with simple pure point spectrum at strong coupling. One of the ingredients of the proof is a new lower bound on the interpolation error for stationary Gaussian processes on the torus (also known as local non-determinism).

description: The consensus is among theater people that to translate and direct Aeschylean drama for a modern audience is a major task and even more so is the task of translating and directing the Oresteia. The Classics Department of the University of Canterbury undertook this task when I translated and directed the Oresteia for the Christchurch stage in New Zealand. The article discusses the directorial choices made in terms of compressing this epic drama into a smaller theater space, especially in handling in an effective way the parodos and first stasimon of the Agamemnon.

description: The expansion of digital media and technology is rapidly transforming our perception of the material world. Marginalising the tactile potential of an image to convey meaning, advances in new-media have emphasized speed and efficiency over weight and substance. In light of the digital paradigm, my research promulgates the concept of painting as a physical encounter. An encounter that negates the disembodied nature of digital technology and that initiates an important rupture within the established fields of visual representation and communication. In order to extend the relevance of painting within contemporary art and culture, this paper analyses the material dimension of painting; its potential to convey significant meaning through creating a visual experience that is both optical and tactile. As the invention of photography can be seen to have liberated painting from a mimetic, narrative role, the nature of digital media likewise offers painters a unique challenge – digital technology requires us to think about painting in a new way. The concerns for ‘physicality’ and ‘media-specificity’ are already well mapped out in modernist discourse and, as Rossalind Kraus rightly points out, it is difficult to raise the term ‘medium’ in relation to visual art without evoking both the ideas and/or critique of modernist critic Clement Greenberg. Consequently, one of the challenges for my research is to redefine the role of painting and its ‘tactility’ beyond the confines of modernist debate and offer an alternate way to consider how painting may operate in the contemporary world. By examining the impact of digital technology on our perception, this paper analyses the specific historical and cultural context that confers paintings physicality with an important role. In expanding the concept of painting as a physical encounter, my research explores the aesthetic philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. I maintain that Deleuze’s writings offer a coherent and creative strategy for contemporary artists to consider the material dimension of painting as a ‘strategic zone’ for arts production. I consider both the production and reception of painting in specific relation to the material processes that engender the emergence of meaning. This is a meaning that is felt through ‘sensation’– motivating us to think about the significance of an image beyond the regime of semiotics or communication. Paintings tactile dimension affirms a connection with the immanence of the physical world – an experience of art grounded in substance.

My previous account of this species did not mention the egg because it was absent from the mine from which I reared an adult. This was possibly a secondary mine, made by a larva that had wandered from its original leaf. The two other mines I examined had an egg attached to the lower surface near the tip of the leaf (Fig. 1). The egg is oval, about 1.3 mm by 0.9 mm, and covered with a transparent secretion that glues it to the lower leaf surface. This in turn is capped by a hollow, rounded structure that is covered with minute bumps. This structure is broken into two or more pieces once the egg is hatched (and I have not observed unhatched eggs), but it is a secreted covering for the egg rather than a broken eggshell. The larva mines directly into the leaf without damaging the exposed surface of the egg, so it is unclear how the covering comes to be hollow and broken.
 Adults feed on the upper surface of leaves of Dichanthelium clandestinum (L.) (Poaceae) in August, producing whitish patches similar to those made by Chalepus walshii (Crotch) on other grasses (Eiseman 2014) but more irregular in outline.

description: Political conflict, a persistent element within various political systems, assumes a heightened significance in developing nations, and Nigeria serves as a poignant example. This study delves into the endemic nature of political conflicts, crises, and violence that have become integral features of Nigeria's political landscape, particularly post-independence. The escalation from political conflict to crisis, and subsequently to violence, underscores the critical need for effective management strategies. Failure to address political conflicts adequately lays the foundation for crises, which, when left unchecked, can escalate into widespread violence. The Nigerian context exemplifies the ominous progression, where unchecked violence can ultimately culminate in politically motivated assassinations. This research is motivated by the recognition that political conflicts demand nuanced understanding and strategic intervention to prevent the dire consequences that may follow. By examining the historical trajectory of political conflict in Nigeria, this study aims to unravel the underlying dynamics that contribute to the escalation of conflicts into more severe forms of political unrest. Insights gained from this exploration will inform the development of proactive measures for conflict prevention and resolution in the context of developing nations, offering valuable lessons for policymakers and stakeholders.
Agamemnon in Herodotus and Thucydides: Exploring the historical uses of a mythological paradigm
Creators: name: Zali, Vasiliki
Publisher: name: Electra
Year: 2011
Subjects: Agamemnon; history; rhetoric; politics

description: This paper explores the use of the myth of Agamemnon in Herodotus and Thucydides. I argue that the deployment of Agamemnon in their works is shaped by, and sheds additional light on, the historians’ attitude toward myth (and its use in rhetoric), their narrative aims and historical outlook. Herodotus’ readiness to embrace myth in both narrative and speeches, his representation of complex motivation, his description of the conflict between the Greeks and the Persians, and his panhellenic outlook, influence the function of Agamemnon: as king of Sparta and the leader of the Greeks in the Trojan War, he reflects the idealistic and pragmatic motivation of the Spartans in the context of the Persian Wars. Agamemnon’s function in Thucydides is different since it is affected by the general avoidance of mythological argument – especially in rhetoric – and its merely relative significance, the description of a war between the Greeks, Thucydides’ pragmatism, and his writing for posterity: aptly replaced by Sparta’s Dorianism in the context of the war against Athens, Agamemnon becomes a contemporary tyrant king who may represent any city or individual yearning for power and empire.

description: A decade ago, a beautiful paper by Wagner developed a ``toolkit'' that in certain cases allows one to prove problems hard for parallel access to NP. However, the problems his toolkit applies to most directly are not overly natural. During the past year, problems that previously were known only to be NP-hard or coNP-hard have been shown to be hard even for the class of sets solvable via parallel access to NP. Many of these problems are longstanding and extremely natural, such as the Minimum Equivalent Expression problem (which was the original motivation for creating the polynomial hierarchy), the problem of determining the winner in the election system introduced by Lewis Carroll in 1876, and the problem of determining on which inputs heuristic algorithms perform well. In the present article, we survey this recent progress in raising lower bounds.

description: This thesis examines the excimer-laser-induced melting of ELA-prepared silicon films using in situ transient reflectance and transmission analysis. The results clearly show that these polycrystalline films, which consist of columnar grains in contact with SiO₂, can melt in a largely and remarkably 2-D manner. Based on the presently and previously obtained experimental results, as well as considering the thermal, thermodynamic, and kinetic aspects of the melting-transition-relevant details, we suggest a model that consists of grain-boundary-initiated melting, followed by lateral melting proceeding into the transiently superheated interior of the grains. Additional experiments are performed which demonstrate how this 2-D melting behavior at least stems intrinsically from the presence in the material of melt-prone grain boundaries and superheating-permitting Si/SiO₂ interfaces. Next, the phase and temperature evolutions of the irradiated films are investigated using a numerical simulation program, which incorporates key material, thermodynamic, and kinetic parameters. We find that the center portion of the grains during (partial) melting (1) corresponds to, especially at the SiO₂-passivated surface, the hottest regions of the films during rapid heating, and (2) remains entirely solid throughout the thickness of the film, as the maximum temperature sustained in these unmelted solids remains well below the superheating limit of silicon at the Si/SiO₂ interface. Lastly, we discuss, and substantiate with results obtained from numerical simulations, the role that the manifested dimensionality of melting plays in dictating the efficiency with which the ELA crystallization technique can generate microstructurally uniform polycrystalline materials. The current discovery regarding the 2-D nature of melting should be recognized and appreciated as a critical process-enabling element for ELA, as the scenario permits microstructure evolution of the grains to take place in an effective manner.
Linear response theory for coupled phase oscillators with general coupling functions

description: We develop a linear response theory by computing the asymptotic value of the order parameter from the linearized equation of continuity around the nonsynchronized reference state using the Laplace transform in time. The proposed theory is applicable to a wide class of coupled phase oscillator systems and allows for any coupling functions, any natural frequency distributions, any phase-lag parameters, and any values for the time-delay parameter. This generality is in contrast to the limitation of the previous methods of the Ott--Antonsen ansatz and the self-consistent equation for an order parameter, which are restricted to a model family whose coupling function consists of only a single sinusoidal function. The theory is verified by numerical simulations.

Subjects: History

description: It is a commonly held belief that Chinese history is ancient, and, in fact, is one of the longest
histories of any present-day nation. What exactly does this mean? One aspect of Chinese history
that could explain this phenomenon is that two thousand years ago, China was still China. It has
an unbroken, magnificent history spanning several millennia. This could be due to China‘s rich
literary history or that many invaders adopted Chinese culture and political structure. Regardless
of the reason for China‘s incredible cultural staying power, the fact that China‘s history can be
deemed as ‗long‘ or ‗longer‘ demonstrates the importance of history when discussing China and
that history itself is not dependent on time alone, but is also a philosophical imposition. In other
words, history is constructed, it is an analytical interpretation that creates and defines personal,
political, cultural, and intellectual significance. In this regard, China‘s history is epic.
It is interesting to note, however, that such a grandiose history excludes particular events.
While studying abroad in China in 2010, I wanted to write a history of the 1989 Tiananmen
Square protests, but found myself unable to do so. In China today, there is no official record of
the events, not even an official recognition that they took place. The subject is forbidden. If any
archive exists, it is not available to scholars or the public. How does one write a history of
something that is forbidden and for which there is no archive? This paper is an attempt to do just
that, to seek a historical discourse from the knowledge fragments and memories that linger in the
face of suppression.

description: Local search algorithms for combinatorial search problems frequently encounter a sequence of states in which it is impossible to improve the value of the objective function; moves through these regions, called plateau moves, dominate the time spent in local search. We analyze and characterize plateaus for three different classes of randomly generated Boolean Satisfiability problems. We identify several interesting features of plateaus that impact the performance of local search algorithms. We show that local minima tend to be small but occasionally may be very large. We also show that local minima can be escaped without unsatisfying a large number of clauses, but that systematically searching for an escape route may be computationally expensive if the local minimum is large. We show that plateaus with exits, called benches, tend to be much larger than minima, and that some benches have very few exit states which local search can use to escape. We show that the solutions (i.e., global minima) of randomly generated problem instances form clusters, which behave similarly to local minima. We revisit several enhancements of local search algorithms and explain their performance in light of our results. Finally we discuss strategies for creating the next generation of local search algorithms.

Short-Wave Infrared Spectral and Geochemical Characteristics of Hydrothermal Alteration at the Archean Izok Lake Zn-Cu-Pb-Ag Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Deposit, Nunavut, Canada: Application in Exploration Target Vectoring

Short-wave infrared (SWIR) field and laboratory spectra were used to identify and characterize hydrothermal alteration mineral chemical variability in host rocks proximal to the Izok Lake Zn-Cu-Pb-Ag volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposit in Nunavut, Canada. The deposit is hosted within a sequence of predominantly felsic pyroclastic rocks of Archean age that are regionally metamorphosed to amphibolite facies. These rocks are characterized by the muscovite-biotite-sillimanite and chlorite-biotite-cordierite mineral suite. Proximal to the deposit, white micas are Al rich to potassic muscovite, and the biotite and chlorite are Mg rich. In areas that are immediately outboard of the proximal alteration zones, rocks are altered to Al-poor muscovite and intermediate to Fe-rich biotite and chlorite. Outboard of this, distal areas are characterized by potassic muscovite and Mg-rich biotite and chlorite. The white micas and biotite/chlorite group minerals display considerable variation in their Al-OH and Fe-OH absorption feature wavelength positions. The variations in muscovite and biotite/chlorite compositions (as determined by the Al-OH and Fe-OH absorption feature wavelength positions) broadly correlate with changes in hydrothermal alteration intensity, as measured by the Ishikawa and chlorite-carbonate-pyrite alteration indices. Our findings suggest that the large-scale alteration intensity trends of the Izok Lake study area can be elucidated using the spectral properties of the hydrothermal alteration minerals.

description: General fuzzy min-max (GFMM) neural network is a generalization of fuzzy neural networks formed by hyperbox fuzzy sets for classification and clustering problems. Two principle algorithms are deployed to train this type of neural network, i.e., incremental learning and agglomerative learning. This paper presents a comprehensive empirical study of performance influencing factors, advantages, and drawbacks of the general fuzzy min-max neural network on pattern classification problems. The subjects of this study include (1) the impact of maximum hyperbox size, (2) the influence of the similarity threshold and measures on the agglomerative learning algorithm, (3) the effect of data presentation order, (4) comparative performance evaluation of the GFMM with other types of fuzzy min-max neural networks and prevalent machine learning algorithms. The experimental results on benchmark datasets widely used in machine learning showed overall strong and weak points of the GFMM classifier. These outcomes also informed potential research directions for this class of machine learning algorithms in the future.

description: In this paper, we first use the distribution of the number of records to demonstrate that the right tail probabilities of counts of rare events are generally better approximated by the right tail probabilities of Poisson distribution than {those} of normal distribution. We then show the moderate deviations in Poisson approximation generally require an adjustment and, with suitable adjustment, we establish better error estimates of the moderate deviations in Poisson approximation than those in \cite{CFS}. Our estimates contain no unspecified constants and are easy to apply. We illustrate the use of the theorems in six applications: Poisson-binomial distribution, matching problem, occupancy problem, birthday problem, random graphs and 2-runs. The paper complements the works of \cite{CC92,BCC95,CFS}.

 Lathrobium castaneipenne: ASSING (2009).
 T y p e m a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d Lectotype, present designation: " Hassia / lineatocolle Scriba x / coll. Kraatz / DEI Müncheberg / Lectotypus Lathrobium lineatocolle Scriba, desig. V. Assing 2010 / Lathrobium lineatocolle Scriba, det. V. Assing 2010" (SDEI). Paralectotype [photo examined]: " / Selignstdt / Seligenstadt, Scriba / Czwal,... [illegible] / Fauv. vid. / Coll. K. Neumann" (SMF).
A d d i t i o n a l m a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: Romania: 1, 1, "Marmaros-Sziget" (NHMW). For previously studied material see ASSING (2009).
C o m m e n t: The original description is based on two male and four female syntypes collected "im Anspülicht des Mains bei Seligenstadt" (SCRIBA 1859). The specimen in the Kraatz collection at the SDEI only has the label " Hassia " attached to it, but there is little doubt that it represents one of the male syntypes. According to BEHNE (pers. comm.), Kraatz was in the habit of marking type specimens with an asterisk behind the species name (see cited labels above). The specimen is here designated as the lectotype. According to HASTENPFLUG- VESMANIS (E-mail, 3 Feb., 2010), there is a female syntype (now a paralectotype) also in the collections of the SMF. The labels are cited above based on a photograph.
 Lathrobium lineatocolle has been regarded as a synonym of L. castaneipenne at least since EPPELSHEIM (1879). It is now reinstated for the species that has been interpreted as L. castaneipenne by most previous authors and that is widespread at least in Europe and has been reported also from the East Palaearctic region.
 For characters separating L. lineatocolle from L. permutatum and illustrations of the male sexual characters see ASSING (2009).

description: This paper elaborates on the design of a machine translation evaluation method that aims to determine to what degree the meaning of an original text is preserved in translation, without looking into the grammatical correctness of its constituent sentences. The basic idea is to have a human evaluator take the sentences of the translated text and, for each of these sentences, determine the semantic relationship that exists between it and the sentence immediately preceding it. In order to minimise evaluator dependence, relations between sentences are expressed in terms of the conjuncts that can connect them, rather than through explicit categories. For an n-sentence text this results in a list of n-1 sentence-to-sentence relationships, which we call the text's connectivity profile. This can then be compared to the connectivity profile of the original text, and the degree of correspondence between the two would be a measure for the quality of the translation. A set of "essential" conjuncts was extracted for English and Japanese, and a computer interface was designed to support the task of inserting the most fitting conjuncts between sentence pairs. With these in place, several sets of experiments were performed.

description: Conversational search is an emerging topic in the information retrieval community. One of the major challenges to multi-turn conversational search is to model the conversation history to answer the current question. Existing methods either prepend history turns to the current question or use complicated attention mechanisms to model the history. We propose a conceptually simple yet highly effective approach referred to as history answer embedding. It enables seamless integration of conversation history into a conversational question answering (ConvQA) model built on BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers). We first explain our view that ConvQA is a simplified but concrete setting of conversational search, and then we provide a general framework to solve ConvQA. We further demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach under this framework. Finally, we analyze the impact of different numbers of history turns under different settings to provide new insights into conversation history modeling in ConvQA.

description: The complex Wishart ensemble is the statistical ensemble of $M \times N$ complex random matrices with $M \geq N$ such that the real and imaginary parts of each element are given by independent standard normal variables. The Marcenko--Pastur (MP) density $ρ(x; r), x \geq 0$ describes the distribution for squares of the singular values of the random matrices in this ensemble in the scaling limit $N \to \infty$, $M \to \infty$ with a fixed rectangularity $r=N/M \in (0, 1]$. The dynamical extension of the squared-singular-value distribution is realized by the noncolliding squared Bessel process, and its hydrodynamic limit provides the two-parametric MP density $ρ(x; r, t)$ with time $t \geq 0$, whose initial distribution is $δ(x)$. Recently, Blaizot, Nowak, and Warchol studied the time-dependent complex Wishart ensemble with an external source and introduced the three-parametric MP density $ρ(x; r, t, a)$ by analyzing the hydrodynamic limit of the process starting from $δ(x-a), a > 0$. In the present paper, we give useful expressions for $ρ(x; r, t, a)$ and perform a systematic study of dynamic critical phenomena observed at the critical time $t_{\rm c}(a)=a$ when $r=1$. The universal behavior in the long-term limit $t \to \infty$ is also reported. It is expected that the present system having the three-parametric MP density provides a mean-field model for QCD showing spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking.
