description: Inferring the effect of interventions within complex systems is a fundamental problem of statistics. A widely studied approach employs structural causal models that postulate noisy functional relations among a set of interacting variables. The underlying causal structure is then naturally represented by a directed graph whose edges indicate direct causal dependencies. In a recent line of work, additional assumptions on the causal models have been shown to render this causal graph identifiable from observational data alone. One example is the assumption of linear causal relations with equal error variances that we will take up in this work. When the graph structure is known, classical methods may be used for calculating estimates and confidence intervals for causal effects. However, in many applications, expert knowledge that provides an a priori valid causal structure is not available. Lacking alternatives, a commonly used two-step approach first learns a graph and then treats the graph as known in inference. This, however, yields confidence intervals that are overly optimistic and fail to account for the data-driven model choice. We argue that to draw reliable conclusions, it is necessary to incorporate the remaining uncertainty about the underlying causal structure in confidence statements about causal effects. To address this issue, we present a framework based on test inversion that allows us to give confidence regions for total causal effects that capture both sources of uncertainty: causal structure and numerical size of nonzero effects.

description: It is now two and a half years since the United States suspended military co­-operation with the Armed Forces of New Zealand (AFNZ) following the Labour Government's refusal to grant port-access to the USS Buchanan in January 1985. In this thesis I propose to study the consequences of the breakdown for the AFNZ with a view to establishing exactly what areas of co-operation have been affected and the significance this has for the professionalism and capability of the Services. Thus far, very few public studies have been made of the direct military costs of the ANZUS rift. Most attention has been focused on the state of political relations between the ANZUS powers. It is however, impossible to make a fully informed judgement about the merits of the Government's present defence policy of developing closer relations with Australia in the context of what it claims is a more self-reliant defence posture without some understanding of the problems that policy seeks to remedy. Accordingly, I hope to present that necessary background, and from this point will go on to discuss the extent to which the Government's defence policy addresses itself to the problems generated by the rift with the United States.

On the observational determination of squeezing in relic gravitational waves and primordial density perturbations

description: We develop a theory in which relic gravitational waves and primordial density perturbations are generated by strong variable gravitational field of the early Universe. The generating mechanism is the superadiabatic (parametric) amplification of the zero-point quantum oscillations. The generated fields have specific statistical properties of squeezed vacuum quantum states. Macroscopically, squeezing manifests itself in a non-stationary character of variances and correlation functions of the fields, the periodic structures of the metric power spectra, and, as a consequence, in oscillatory behavior of the higher order multipoles C_l of the cosmic microwave background anisotropy. We start with the gravitational wave background and then apply the theory to primordial density perturbations. We derive an analytical formula for the positions of peaks and dips in the angular power spectrum l(l+1)C_l as a function of l. This formula shows that the values of l at the peak positions are ordered in the proportion 1:3:5:..., whereas at the dips they are ordered as 1:2:3:.... We compare the derived positions with the actually observed features, and find them to be in reasonably good agreement. It appears that the observed structure is better described by our analytical formula based on the (squeezed) metric perturbations associated with the primordial density perturbations, rather than by the acoustic peaks reflecting the existence of plasma sound waves at the last scattering surface. We formulate a forecast for other features in the angular power spectrum, that may be detected by the advanced observational missions, such as MAP and PLANCK. We tentatively conclude that the observed structure is a macroscopic manifestation of squeezing in the primordial metric perturbations.
description: 34 pages, 3 figures; to appear in Phys. Rev. D66, 0435XX (2002); includes Note Added in Proofs: "The latest CBI observations (T.J.Pearson et al., astro-ph/0205388) have detected four peaks, at l ~ 550, 800, 1150, 1500, and four dips, at l ~ 400, 700, 1050, 1400. These positions are in a very good agreement with the theoretical formula (6.35) of the present paper. We interpret this data as confirmation of our conclusion that it is gravity, and not acoustics, that is responsible for the observed structure."
Pura Besakih : a study of Balinese religion and society
Creators: name: Stuart-Fox, David J.
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1987

description: Pura Besakih is the paramount Hindu temple on the island of Bali, Indonesia. Its location on the slopes of the volcano Mt. Agung, the highest mountain on the island, reflects a tradition of regarding the mountain as a major locus of divinity. In Bali, the Lord of Mt. Agung is associated with Siwa (Mahadewa). Pura Besakih is the name given to a large complex of public temples located in the village of Besakih. Through a comparison of villages throughout the west Karangasem region (Besakih is one of the region's old core villages), the regional system of two main communal temples provides a framework for analyzing the system of dual classification underlying Besakih's public temples. However, other systems of symbolic classification group together certain other sets of temples. Data from written sources indicate that the five-part classification system is relatively recent in Besakih's history and marks the introduction of brahmanic ritual. An analysis of the rituals helds in the public temples develops the concepts of the hierarchy of ritual elaboration and the idiom of ritual. The relationship between levels of ritual elaboration and ritual cycles indicates the pre-eminence of rituals held according to the lunar cycle. Further analysis examines the relationship between levels of elaboration of rituals and their sources of funding. Rituals of the greatest elaboration are the responsibility of the state. Being the paramount Hindu temple on Bali, Pura Besakih has been involved with the island's political authority, at least since the 15th century. The nature of the relationship between temple and state has changed as the nature of the state in Bali has itself changed from the traditional courts of pre-colonial Bali to the island's incorporation into the Dutch colonial empire, and finally to its present status as a province within the Republic of Indonesia. The hierarchy of political authority, temple status and ritual elaboration come together in the enactment at Besakih of the great purificatory rituals of Panca Walikrama and Ekadasa Rudra. These great rituals have contributed to the present status of Pura Besakih as the Hindu sanctuary of national prominence.

description: "This was the week that changed the world",1 said President Nixon during his first visit to the People's Republic of China (the PRC) in 1972. However, it took many weeks to achieve this one week symbolising the rapprochement between the United States and the PRC. Given the more-than-twenty-year hostility between Beijing and Washington after the Second World War (WW II), the great difference between their ideologies and cultural values, and their historical experiences, such a historic breakthrough was the result of many factors; some of which were so urgent and important that both Beijing and Washington, separately but concurrently, decided to make such a sudden and fundamental change in their respective foreign policies that shocked the world.

We prove that a finitely generated group has bounded separation in the sense of Benjamini--Schramm--Timár if and only if it is virtually free. We then prove a gap theorem for connectivity of finitely presented groups, and prove that there is no comparable theorem for all finitely generated groups. Finally, we formulate a connectivity version of the conjecture that every group of type $F$ with no Baumslag-Solitar subgroup is hyperbolic, and prove it for groups with at most quadratic Dehn function.

description: We study Unruh phenomena for a qudit detector coupled to a quantized scalar field, comparing its response to that of a standard qubit-based Unruh-DeWitt detector. We show that there are limitations to the utility of the detailed balance condition as an indicator for Unruh thermality of higher-dimensional qudit detector models. This can be traced to the fact that a qudit has multiple possible transition channels between its energy levels, in contrast to the 2-level qubit model. We illustrate these limitations using two types of qutrit detector models based on the spin-1 representations of $SU(2)$ and the non-Hermitian generalization of the Pauli observables (the Heisenberg-Weyl operators).

Livelihood strategies of the landless : three cases from Blitar, East Java

description: The view of the passive and submissive Javanese peasant is so common in the literature that it seems that there must be some truth in it. My argument is that it describes one of the strategies for survival used by Javanese peasants in responding to their situation. A key question concerns the different aspects of this strategy for survival chosen by different groups and why these aspects are chosen. This study focuses on three major types of community within the same cultural and historical setting in the Blitar regency of East Java: Pari, a community based on wetrice agriculture; Saratemen, a plantation-based community; and Jati, a forestry-based community. In describing these three communities, I have examined in detail their different conditions: their economic activities, social and cultural institutions, historical experiences, and their political and administrative organization. I conclude that there are basically similar elements of a survival strategy in the three communities. For example, in all three communities, peasants are involved in a wide range of activities and peasant household mobilize as many of their members as possible in these activities. These two elements of a basic strategy for survival are an integral part of being a peasant subsistence-producer. Although the basic elements of this strategy are similar, the ways in which the three communities apply this strategy are very different. The distinction between the survival strategies of the three communities are less of substance and more, at the margin, in their approach to this basic strategy. The specific conditions in which individuals live can affect the ways in which they develop their strategies. Looking at the studies of these three communities, I suggest two features that stand out as contributing to the differences between them. The first is the communities’s historical experience, especially the peasants’s own perceptions of it. The second is the peasantry’s role in the local economic system, and related to this, the extent of socioeconomic differences and of social cohesion within the community.

description: We study the prospects of probing neutrino mass models at the newly proposed antimuon collider $μ$TRISTAN, involving $μ^+e^-$ scattering at $\sqrt{s}= 346$ GeV and $μ^+μ^+$ scattering at $\sqrt{s}= 2$ TeV. We show that $μ$TRISTAN is uniquely sensitive to leptophilic neutral and doubly-charged scalars naturally occurring in various neutrino mass models, such as Zee, Zee-Babu, cocktail, and type-II seesaw models, over a wide range of mass and coupling values, well beyond the current experimental constraints. It also allows for the possibility to correlate the collider signals with neutrino mixing parameters and charged lepton flavor violating observables.

description: In this letter, we address the problem of exploration and metric-semantic mapping of multi-floor GPS-denied indoor environments using Size Weight and Power (SWaP) constrained aerial robots. Most previous work in exploration assumes that robot localization is solved. However, neglecting the state uncertainty of the agent can ultimately lead to cascading errors both in the resulting map and in the state of the agent itself. Furthermore, actions that reduce localization errors may be at direct odds with the exploration task. We propose a framework that balances the efficiency of exploration with actions that reduce the state uncertainty of the agent. In particular, our algorithmic approach for active metric-semantic SLAM is built upon sparse information abstracted from raw problem data, to make it suitable for SWaP-constrained robots. Furthermore, we integrate this framework within a fully autonomous aerial robotic system that achieves autonomous exploration in cluttered, 3D environments. From extensive real-world experiments, we showed that by including Semantic Loop Closure (SLC), we can reduce the robot pose estimation errors by over 90% in translation and approximately 75% in yaw, and the uncertainties in pose estimates and semantic maps by over 70% and 65%, respectively. Although discussed in the context of indoor multi-floor exploration, our system can be used for various other applications, such as infrastructure inspection and precision agriculture where reliable GPS data may not be available.

description: The purpose of this thesis is to explore the historical and cultural dimensions of contemporary settlement patterns in the southern central highlands of West Timor. The Atoin meto people of this region are subsistent agriculturalists who live out their lives in the restricted world of household and hamlet. Social networks within and between hamlets are organised on the basis of dispersed clan group affiliations and marriage alliance. Knowledge of the past is recorded and expressed through an oral narrative tradition which provides a legitimating discourse for establishing claims in the present. In this thesis I draw on one exemplary oral narrative from the prominent clan group Nabuasa. This provides a basis for reconstructing the former political order in the study area of southern Amanuban. The analysis of the narrative reveals that the Nabuasa clan came to occupy the central position of an autonomous political system founded on an expansionary cult of warfare and headhunting. The history of twentieth century southern Amanuban has been one of diverse change. I argue, however, that Atoin meto communities maintain an orientation to the political order of the past and the central Nabuasa position within it. The legacy of this orientation may be observed in the patterns of land tenure, marriage alliance, and the system of localised political authority. These practical concerns are symbolised and represented through an inherited corpus of metaphorical idioms expressed in a pervasive dyadic form. These recurrent metaphors of life, such as gate and path, trunk and tip, female and male, and inside and outside, express cultural notions of relative precedence and social continuity. In these and other ways the present is constituted in terms of the past. Social reproduction is ordered by a system of asymmetrically structured social relations, articulated by a complex of gift exchange and legitimated and framed by recourse to historical precedent.

Like resonant-cavity enhanced photodetector structure, it contains a thin absorber enclosed in a dielectric cavity but surrogates the mirrors by two grating-on-layer structures. Fair manufacturing tolerance while maintaining high peak efficiency is proved. Electromagnetic fields amplitudes and Poynting vector over the cavity-absorber area are visualized and topology of electromagnetic power flow for two linear polarizations is discussed.

description: This paper investigates the decoherence effect resulting from the interaction of squeezed gravitational waves with a system of massive particles in spatial superposition. This paper investigates the decoherence effect resulting from the interaction of squeezed gravitational waves with a system of massive particles in spatial superposition. We first employ the open quantum system approach to obtain the established decoherence in a spatial superposition of massive objects induced by squeezed gravitational waves. Subsequently, we focus on the spin-1/2 particle system, and our analysis reveals that the decoherence rate depends on both the squeezing strength and the squeezing angle of the gravitational waves. Our results demonstrate that squeezed gravitational waves with squeezing strengths of $r_p\geq1.2$ and a squeezing angle of $φ_p=π/2$ can induce a 1 % decoherence within 1 s free falling of a cloud of spin-1/2 particles. This investigation sheds light on the relationship between squeezed gravitational waves and the coherence of spatial superposition states in systems of massive particles and their spin. The dependence of decoherence on squeezing strength and, in the case of spin-$1/2$ particles, on the squeezing angle paves the way for further exploration and understanding of the quantum-gravity connection. We suggest that such an experimental setup could also be employed to eventually investigate the level of squeezing effect (and hence quantum-related properties) of gravitational waves produced in the early universe from inflation.

On the Possibility of Measuring the Gravitomagnetic Clock Effect in an Earth Space-Based Experiment

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper the effect of the post-Newtonian gravitomagnetic force on the mean longitudes $l$ of a pair of counter-rotating Earth artificial satellites following almost identical circular equatorial orbits is investigated. The possibility of measuring it is examined. The observable is the difference of the times required to $l$ in passing from 0 to 2$π$ for both senses of motion. Such gravitomagnetic time shift, which is independent of the orbital parameters of the satellites, amounts to 5$\times 10^{-7}$ s for Earth; it is cumulative and should be measured after a sufficiently high number of revolutions. The major limiting factors are the unavoidable imperfect cancellation of the Keplerian periods, which yields a constraint of 10$^{-2}$ cm in knowing the difference between the semimajor axes $a$ of the satellites, and the difference $I$ of the inclinations $i$ of the orbital planes which, for $i\sim 0.01^\circ$, should be less than $0.006^\circ$. A pair of spacecrafts endowed with a sophisticated intersatellite tracking apparatus and drag-free control down to 10$^{-9}$ cm s$^{-2}$ Hz$^{-{1/2}}$ level might allow to meet the stringent requirements posed by such a mission.

description: We present two determinations of the strong coupling \(α_s\). The first one is from the static energy at three-loop accuracy, and may be considered an update of earlier determinations by some of us. The new analysis includes new lattice data at smaller lattice spacings, and reaches distances as short as \(0.0237\,{\rm fm}\). We present a comprehensive and detailed estimate of the error sources that contribute to the uncertainty of the final result, $α_s(M_Z)=0.11660^{+0.00110}_{-0.00056}$. The second determination is based on lattice data for the singlet free energy at finite temperature up to distances as small as \(0.0081\,{\rm fm}\), from which we obtain $α_s(M_Z)=0.11638^{+0.0009 5}_{-0.00087}$.

description: Recently there has been a renewed interest in an extension of the notion of orthogonal polynomials known as multiple orthogonal polynomials. This notion comes from simultaneous rational approximation (Hermite-Pade approximation) of a system of several functions. We describe seven families of multiple orthogonal polynomials which have he same flavor as the very classical orthogonal polynomials of Jacobi, Laguerre and Hermite. We also mention some open research problems and some applications.

Particle Dynamics on Test Papapetrou Fields of Vacuum Spacetimes
Creators: name: Maier, Rodrigo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we examine the dynamics of particles subjected to test Papapetrou fields of vacuum spacetimes. The staring point of our analysis is based on fundamental electrodynamics which emerge from spacetime isometries of a Kerr and Schwarzschild black holes. Taking into account Killing vectors which satisfy Maxwell equations we evaluate the corresponding electric and magnetic fields -- Papapetrou fields -- by fixing proper frames of reference in each spacetime. A timelike observer is considered for the case of a Schwarzschild spacetime while a locally non-rotating (LNR) frame of reference is fixed for a Kerr black hole. In order to probe for the effect of such electromagnetic fields we study the motion of charged test particles in the equatorial plane of both spacetimes. For the case of a Schwarzschild black hole we show that massive/charged test particles may populate the unstable photon sphere for a given domain of the parametric space. Restricting ourselves to orbits with LNR initial conditions for the case of a Kerr black hole we show that there is an explicit deviation between orbits of neutral and charged particles in the case of repulsive configurations. For critical charge-mass ratios $ζ_*$ test particles can be found in the Kerr retrograde photon sphere thus assigning a physical signature to Papapetrou fields.
Demographic components of population growth in seven cities of central Java: 1961-1971

description: This thesis presents the results of an attempt to estimate, through the use of demographic analysis, the components of population growth in the seven cities of Central Java having municipal statuses. Special tabulation runs on the 1971 Population Census of Indonesia are the main source of data for the estimates. The average crude birth rates during the period 1961-1971 were obtained by multiplying the 1971 population age distributions by the given age specific fertility rates during the period assuming little change in the age structure. The average crude death rates and crude net migration rates were obtained from the life tables produced by the Brass method, West Model Life Tables and the logit system. The results indicate that the cities experienced mostly net out migration, which in some cases was explained by overspill beyond the official city's boundaries.

The usual PS-approach miss many FOODEs presenting Liouvillian functions in the solution (LFOODEs). We point out why and propose an algorithm to solve a large class of these previously unsolved LFOODEs. Although our algorithm does not cover all the LFOODEs, it is an elegant extension mantaining the semi-decision nature of the usual PS-Method.

description: In this paper we give, for the first time, a complete description of the late-time evolution of non-tilted spatially homogeneous cosmologies of Bianchi type VIII. The source is assumed to be a perfect fluid with equation of state $p = (γ- 1)μ$, where $γ$ is a constant which satisfies $1 \leq γ\leq 2$. Using the orthonormal frame formalism and Hubble-normalized variables, we rigorously establish the limiting behaviour of the models at late times, and give asymptotic expansions for the key physical variables. The main result is that asymptotic self-similarity breaking occurs, and is accompanied by the phenomenon of `Weyl curvature dominance', characterized by the divergence of the Hubble-normalized Weyl curvature at late times.
