description: The aim of this paper is to highlight the challenges and potential gains surrounding a coherent description of physics from the high-energy scales of inflation down to the lower energy scales probed in particle-physics experiments. As an example, we revisit the way inflation can be realised within an effective Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (eMSSM), in which the $LLe$ and $udd$ flat directions are lifted by the combined effect of soft-supersymmetric-breaking masses already present in the MSSM, together with the addition of effective non-renormalizable operators. We clarify some features of the model and address the question of the one-loop Renormalization Group improvement of the inflationary potential, discussing its impact on the fine-tuning of the model. We also compare the parameter space that is compatible with current observations (in particular the amplitude, $A_{\scriptscriptstyle{\mathrm{S}}}$, and the spectral index, $n_{\scriptscriptstyle{\mathrm{S}}}$, of the primordial cosmological fluctuations) at tree level and at one loop, and discuss the role of reheating. Finally we perform combined fits of particle and cosmological observables (mainly $A_{\scriptscriptstyle{\mathrm{S}}}$, $n_{\scriptscriptstyle{\mathrm{S}}}$, the Higgs mass, and the cold-dark-matter energy density) with the one-loop inflationary potential applied to some examples of dark-matter annihilation channels (Higgs-funnel, Higgsinos and A-funnel), and discuss the status of the ensuing MSSM spectra with respect to the LHC searches.

description: I discuss the quantum dynamics of strongly disordered quantum systems with critically long range interactions, decaying as $1/r^{2d}$ in $d$ spatial dimensions. I argue that, contrary to expectations, localization in such systems is stable at low orders in perturbation theory, giving rise to an unusual `critically many body localized regime.' I discuss the phenomenology of this critical MBL regime, which includes distinctive signatures in entanglement, charge statistics, noise, and transport. Experimentally, such a critically localized regime can be realized in three dimensional systems with Van der Waals interactions, such as Rydberg atoms, and in one dimensional systems with $1/r^2$ interactions, such as trapped ions. I estimate timescales on which high order perturbative and non-perturbative (avalanche) phenomena may destabilize this critically MBL regime, and conclude that the avalanche sets the limiting timescale, in the limit of strong disorder / weak interactions.
Die politische Repräsentation der Konsumenten nach dem Ende des Ersten Weltkrieges

description: As urban populations in Europe experienced unprecedented material want during the First World War and its aftermath, political communication increasingly centred on the interests of consumers. At issue was not only how to provide for their basic needs, but also, and more importantly, whether it was legitimate and feasible to represent their interests at an institutional level in order to counter-balance the power of producers. Ultimately, although the point of view of consumers promised to recast the relationship between the political and the economic, the impact at the institutional level turned out to be limited. The article examines this debate at the point of its greatest prominence during the formative years of the Weimar republic. Its main actors, issues and effects are then compared to parallel struggles for consumer rights in Great Britain and France. It will be argued that similarities outweigh national differences and that these similarities should be attributed to the pervasive effects of the First World War and to the difficulties inherent in representing consumer interests.

description: Some circumstellar disks, called transitional or hybrid disks, present characteristics of both protoplanetary disks (significant amount of gas) and debris disks (evolved structures around young main-sequence stars, composed of second generation dust, from collisions between planetesimals). Therefore, they are an ideal astrophysical laboratory to witness the last stages of planet formation. The circumstellar disk around HD~141569A was intensively observed and resolved in the past from space but also from the ground but the recent implementation of high contrast imaging systems opens new opportunities to re-analyze this object. We analyzed Gemini archival data from the Near-Infrared Coronagraphic Imager (NICI) obtained in 2011 in the H band, using several angular differential imaging techniques (classical ADI, LOCI, KLIP). These images reveal the complex structures of this disk with an unprecedented resolution. We also include archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images as an independent dataset to confirm these findings. Using an analysis of the inner edge of the disk, we show that the inner disk is almost axisymmetrical. The measurement of an offset towards the East observed by previous authors is likely due to the fact that the Eastern part of this disk is wider and more complex in substructure. Our precise re-analysis of the eastern side shows several structures including a splitting of the disk and a small finger detached from the inner edge on the southeast. Finally, we find that the arc at 250 AU is unlikely to be a spiral, at least not at the inclination derived from the first ring, but instead could be interpreted as a third belt at a different inclination. If the very symmetrical inner disk edge is carved by a companion, the data presented here put additional constraints on its position.

Stability Experiments: The Overlooked Dual of Memory Experiments

description: Topological quantum computations are built on a foundation of two basic tasks: preserving logical observables through time and moving logical observables through space. Memory experiments, which check how well logical observables are preserved through time, are a well established benchmark. Strangely, there is no corresponding well established benchmark for moving logical observables through space. This paper tries to fill that gap with "stability experiments", which check how well a quantum error correction system can determine the product of a large region of stabilizers. Stability experiments achieve this by testing on a region that is locally a normal code but globally has a known product of stabilizers.

description: Solitons are commonly known as waves that propagate without dispersion. Here we show that they can occur for driven overdamped Brownian dynamics of hard spheres in periodic potentials at high densities. The solitons manifest themselves as periodic sequences of different assemblies of particles moving in the limit of zero noise, where transport of single particles is not possible. They give rise to particle currents at even low temperature that appear in band-like structures around certain hard-sphere diameters. At high temperatures, the band-like structures are washed out by the noise, but the particle transport is still dominated by the solitons. All these predicted features should occur in a broad class of periodic systems and are amenable to experimental tests.

description: Consumers and national System-builder: Comparing German and Dutch cyclists‘ unions, 1900–1940 This article explores the variability and the limits of the political in regard to cyclists‘ unions in Germany and the Netherlands between 1900 and 1940. In both countries, cyclists formed national consumer organizations, mixing consumer demands with social and even political implications. The Dutch Cyclists‘ Union managed to establish herself as an eminent political actor and „system builder“ with lasting impact on traffic legislation and road construction. While liberals were loosing the political majority in Dutch parliament, the Cyclists‘ Union became a stronghold of Dutch liberalism outside the narrow confines of the old institutionalized political arena. In contrast, German cyclists‘ dreams of opening up social elites and fostering social and political change through the bicycle were shattered. The bicycle, which had started off as a luxury good in the 1890s and had become a common means of transport by the 1920s, was more suitable for political communications „from top to bottom“. Old liberal elites in the Netherlands were quite successful in making use of this consumer object in order to reformulate their existing claims to power and create new realms of the political. A transformation of social and political conditions, „from the bottom up“, as it was hoped for by part of the German cyclists‘ movement, however, turned out to be utopian.

description: Regular spaceborne measurements have revealed that solar brightness varies on multiple timescales, variations on timescales greater than a day being attributed to surface magnetic field. Independently, ground-based and spaceborne measurements suggest that Sun-like stars show a similar, but significantly broader pattern of photometric variability. To understand whether the broader pattern of stellar variations is consistent with the solar paradigm we assess relative contributions of faculae and spots to solar magnetically-driven brightness variability. We investigate how the solar brightness variability as well as its facular and spot contributions depend on the wavelength, timescale of variability, and position of the observer relative to the ecliptic plane. We perform calculations with the SATIRE model, which returns solar brightness with daily cadence from solar disc area coverages of various magnetic features. Moving the observer away from the ecliptic plane increases the amplitude of 11-year variability as it would be seen in Strömgren $(b+y)/2$ photometry, but decreases the amplitude of the rotational brightness variations as it would appear in Kepler and CoRoT passbands. The spot and facular contributions to the 11-year solar variability in the Strömgren $(b+y)/2$ photometry almost fully compensate each other so that the Sun appears anomalously quiet with respect to its stellar cohort. Such a compensation does not occur on the rotational timescale. The rotational solar brightness variability as it would appear in Kepler and CoRoT passband from the ecliptic plane is spot-dominated but the relative contribution of faculae increases for out-of-ecliptic viewing so that the apparent brightness variations are faculae-dominated for inclinations less than about $i=45^{\circ}$.

We detail different features that have been proposed as extensions of the initial format during the last ten years, and collect them in the current second version of the model format that we coin the Universal Feynman Output format. Following the initial philosophy of the UFO, they consist of flexible and modular additions to address particle decays, custom propagators, form factors, the renormalisation group running of parameters and masses, and higher-order quantum corrections.

description: Spaces of possibilities and limits of speaking – Consumption as a political motif of travel reports of the 16th century In this essay French and Spanish travel reports from the 16th century are used as sources of history of consumption. The travel reports all dealt with a new continent named “America” which was equated with visions of a new society. The article identifies three patterns of interpretation which show different variations of acquirement. The first model is orientated on a Christian prototype of man, the native without needs. The second model depicts the organisation of complex Indian societies in Middle- and South-America. The last model contains an economic founded dream of a cultivated landscape. All models show an intention to verify traditional systems of social life in Europe and are by this means typically “political”.

description: OH megamasers (OHMs) are rare, luminous molecular masers that are typically observed in (ultra) luminous infrared galaxies and serve as markers of major galaxy mergers. In blind emission line surveys such as the Arecibo Legacy Fast Arecibo L-Band Feed Array (ALFALFA) survey for neutral hydrogen (HI), OHMs at z~0.2 can mimic z~0.05 HI lines. We present the results of optical spectroscopy of ambiguous HI detections in the ALFALFA 40% data release detected by the Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) but with uncertain optical counterparts. The optical redshifts, obtained from observations at the Apache Point Observatory, revealed five new OHMs and identified 129 HI optical counterparts. Sixty candidates remain ambiguous. The new OHMs are the first detected in a blind spectral line survey. The number of OHMs in ALFALFA is consistent with predictions from the OH luminosity function. Additionally, the mid-infrared magnitudes and colors of the OHM host galaxies found in a blind survey do not seem to differ from those found in previous targeted surveys. This validates the methods used in previous IR-selected OHM surveys and indicates there is no previously unknown OHM-producing population at z~0.2. We also provide a method for future surveys to separate OH megamasers from 99% of HI line emitters without optical spectroscopy by using WISE infrared colors and magnitudes. Since the fraction of OHMs found in flux-limited HI surveys is expected to increase with the survey's redshift, this selection method can be applied to future flux-limited high-redshift hydrogen surveys.

description: Hintergrund und Zielstellung: Berufsdermatosen gemäß der BK-Nr. 5101 zählen zu den häufigsten berufsbedingten Erkrankungen in Deutschland. Neben der medizinischen Therapie trägt das individuelle Hautschutzverhalten der Patient*innen dazu bei, den Hautzustand zu verbessern und den Berufsverbleib langfristig zu sichern. Zur Initiierung und Unterstützung von Verhaltensänderungen bei Betroffenen sind gesundheitspädagogische Angebote (z. B. Hautschutz-Schulungen) zentrale Elemente. Individuelle Zielgespräche können eine Verhaltensänderung vorbereiten und unterstützen; ein solches Angebot existiert in der Berufsdermatologie jedoch bisher nicht. Zielstellung war es daher, Zielgespräche zu konzipieren und zu pilotieren. Methodik: Die Konzeption der Zielgespräche erfolgte in einem mehrstufigen Prozess, orientiert am „Arbeitsbuch Reha-Ziele“ [1] der DRV, in einer einrichtungsinternen Arbeitsgruppe. Zur Pilotierung wurde einer Patientengruppe (n= 6) am iDerm Osnabrück zusätzlich zur regulären Versorgung ein individuelles Zielgespräch in der dritten Woche des Aufenthalts angeboten. In einer Fokusgruppendiskussion wurden anschließend anhand verschiedener Leitfragen mit den teilnehmenden Personen inhaltliche und methodische Dimensionen der Zielgespräche besprochen. Ergebnisse: Es liegt ein für die Berufsdermatologie adaptierter und konsentierter Zielgespräch-Leitfaden vor. Die Teilnehmenden formulierten Ziele in den Bereichen Hautreinigung, Hautschutz, Hautpflege und soziale Unterstützung. Das Abstraktionsniveau war dabei heterogen und die Relevanz dieser Bereiche wurde individuell unterschiedlich bewertet. Hier schien die persönliche Situation (z. B. Vorerfahrung mit Hautschutzmaßnahmen) ein möglicher Einflussfaktor zu sein. Zudem empfinden die Teilnehmenden ihre eigenen Ziele als Motivation zur Umsetzung der persönlichen Vorhaben im Alltag. Diskussion und Fazit: Erste Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, dass die Zielgespräche das bestehende Rehabilitationsangebot im Sinne der Patient*innen sinnvoll ergänzen. In weiteren Evaluationsphasen soll ein Fokus auf die selbsteingeschätzte Zielerreichung nach Entlassung gelegt werden.

description: We discuss quantum entanglement in top pair production at the LHC. Near the $t \bar t$ threshold, entanglement observables are enhanced by suppressing the contribution of $q \bar q$ subprocesses, which is achieved by a simple cut on the velocity of the $t \bar t$ system in the laboratory frame. Furthermore, we design new observables that directly measure the relevant combinations of $t\bar t$ spin correlation coefficients involved in the measurement of entanglement and Bell inequalities. As a result, the statistical sensitivity is enhanced, up to a factor of 7 for Bell inequalities near threshold.

description: We have developed and demonstrated a scheme to achieve rotationally-closed photon cycling in polyatomic molecules with complex hyperfine structure and sensitivity to hadronic symmetry violation, specifically $^{171}$YbOH and $^{173}$YbOH. We calculate rotational branching ratios for spontaneous decay and identify repumping schemes which use electro-optical modulators (EOMs) to address the hyperfine structure. We demonstrate our scheme by cycling photons in a molecular beam and verify that we have achieved rotationally-closed cycling by measuring optical pumping into unaddressed vibrational states. Our work makes progress along the path toward utilizing photon cycling for state preparation, readout, and laser cooling in precision measurements of polyatomic molecules with complex hyperfine structure.

description: Linear density response functions are calculated for symmetric nuclear matter of normal density by time-evolving two-time Green's functions in real time. Of particular interest is the effect of correlations. The system is therefore initially time-evolved with a collision term calculated in a direct Born approximation as well as with full (RPA) ring-summation until fully correlated. An external time-dependent potential is then applied. The ensuing density fluctuations are recorded to calculate the density response. This method was previously used by Kwong and Bonitz for studying plasma oscillations in a correlated electron gas. The energy-weighted sum-rule for the response function is guaranteed by using conserving self-energy insertions as the method then generates the full vertex-functions. These can alternatively be calculated by solving a Bethe -Salpeter equation as done in some previous works. The (first order) mean field is derived from a momentum-dependent (non-local) interaction while $2^{nd}$ order self-energies are calculated using a particle-hole two-body effective (or 'residual') interaction given by a gaussian \it local \rm potential. We present numerical results for the response function $S(ω,q_0)$ for $q_0=0.2,0.4$ and $0.8 {\rm fm}^{-1}$. Comparison is made with the nucleons being un-correlated i.e. with only the first order mean field included, the 'HF+RPA' approximation. We briefly discuss the relation of our work with the Landau quasi-particle theory as applied to nuclear systems by Sjöberg and followers using methods developped by Babu and Brown, with special emphasis on the 'induced' interaction.

description: The holographic duality between cascading gauge theory and type IIB supergravity on warped deformed conifold with fluxes reveals exotic thermal phases with nonzero expectation values of certain operators, persistent to high temperatures. These phases, in the limit of vanishing the strong coupling scale of the cascading gauge theory, would realize thermal ordered conformal phases in relativistic QFTs. We find that the dual Klebanov-Strassler and Klebanov-Tseytlin black branes in this limit are outside the regime of the supergravity approximation, rendering the construction of such conformal ordered states unreliable. While we have been able to construct conformal order in phenomenologically deformed effective theory of type IIB supergravity reduced on warped deformed conifold with fluxes, the removal of the deformation parameter causes the destruction of the thermal conformal ordered phases. Once again, we find that the holographic models with the conformal ordered phases are in the String Theory swampland.

description: Hybridization is a key mechanism involved in lineage diversification and speciation, especially in ecosystems that experienced repeated environmental oscillations. Recently radiated plant groups, which have evolved in mountain ecosystems impacted by historical climate change provide an excellent model system for studying the impact of gene flow on speciation. We combined organellar (whole plastome) and nuclear genomic data (RAD-seq) with a cytogenetic approach (rDNA FISH) to investigate the effects of hybridization and introgression on evolution and speciation in the genus Soldanella (snowbells, Primulaceae). Pervasive introgression has already occurred among ancestral lineages of snowbells and has persisted throughout the entire evolutionary history of the genus, regardless of the ecology, cytotype, or distribution range size of the affected species. The highest extent of introgression has been detected in the Carpathian species, which is also reflected in their extensive karyotype variation. Introgression occurred even between species with dysploid and euploid cytotypes, which were considered to be reproductively isolated. The magnitude of introgression detected in snowbells is unprecedented in other mountain genera of the European Alpine System investigated hitherto. Our study stresses the prominent evolutionary role of hybridization in facilitating speciation and diversification on the one hand, but also enriching previously isolated genetic pools.

description: This paper introduces design patterns for dashboards to inform dashboard design processes. Despite a growing number of public examples, case studies, and general guidelines there is surprisingly little design guidance for dashboards. Such guidance is necessary to inspire designs and discuss tradeoffs in, e.g., screenspace, interaction, or information shown. Based on a systematic review of 144 dashboards, we report on eight groups of design patterns that provide common solutions in dashboard design. We discuss combinations of these patterns in dashboard genres such as narrative, analytical, or embedded dashboard. We ran a 2-week dashboard design workshop with 23 participants of varying expertise working on their own data and dashboards. We discuss the application of patterns for the dashboard design processes, as well as general design tradeoffs and common challenges. Our work complements previous surveys and aims to support dashboard designers and researchers in co-creation, structured design decisions, as well as future user evaluations about dashboard design guidelines.

description: The triangle between Cuba, the French government und the intellectual left in France went far beyond the usual transcultural relationships between Latin America und Europe in the twentieth century. Both cooperations as well as tensions and contradictions were characteristic for this relationship. Following new research approaches of global history this article analyzes the relative importance of France for the social emancipatorical project in Cuba and vice versa the relative importance of the Cuban Revolution for the French government and the political programmatic of the left in France in the 1960s. The article figures out why the French-Cuban cooperation had to fail in the end. Moreover this study can make a better understanding for relations of other transformation societies in the so-called Third World striving for “autocentred” development and an end of asymmetric power relations with political movements in Europe in the 20th century.

description: In this second communication we continue our analysis of the turbulence in the Huygens Region of the Orion Nebula (M 42). We calculate the associated transverse structure functions up to order 8-th and find that the higher-order transverse structure functions are almost proportional to the second-order transverse structure function: we find that after proper normalisation, the higher-order transverse structure functions only differ by very small deviations from the second-order transverse structure function in a sub-interval of the inertial range. We demonstrate that this implies that the turbulence in the Huygens Region is quasi-log-homogeneous, or to a better degree of approximation, binomially weighted log-homogeneous in the statistical sense, this implies that there is some type of invariant statistical structure in the velocity field of the Huygens Region. We also obtain and analyse the power-spectrum of the turbulent field and find that it displays a large tail that follows very approximately two power-laws, one of the form $E(k)\propto k^{-2.7}$ for the initial side of the tail, and one of the form $E(k)\propto k^{-1}$ for the end of the tail. We find that the power-law with exponent $β\sim -2.7$ corresponds to spatial scales of 0.0301--0.6450 pc. We find that the exponent of the first power-law $β\sim -2.7$ is related to the exponent $α_2$ of the second-order structure function in the inertial range. We interpret the second power-law with exponent $β\sim -1$ as an indicator of viscous-dissipative processes occurring at scales of $δr=1$--5 pixels which correspond to spatial scales of 0.00043--0.00215 pc.

description: This thesis presents a re-reading of architectural culture in the interwar years by revealing Britain’s collaborative role within European developments. This is achieved through study of critic Philip Morton Shand (1888-1960). Among the most influential architectural networkers of his time, Shand exerted an influence through his many contacts. Exploring his unstudied correspondence reveals new topics while also presenting fresh perspectives on well-known figures. Key events include facilitating the emigration of Walter Gropius to Britain; establishing Finmar, the wholesaler of Alvar Aalto furniture; and founding MARS, Britain’s chapter of the Congrès Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne (CIAM). Based on Shand’s involvement in these and other events, this thesis argues for the existence of a reciprocal line of influence, with Britain’s developments received, understood and appreciated in Europe. This proposes a new direction for historians of the interwar years to pursue, with greater respect for Britain’s contributions to the international discourse of Modernism.

A model accounting for both hyperfine and Zeeman pumping is developed and its results are compared with experimental measurements performed at relatively weak pump irradiance. The interplay between the two pumping processes generates intriguing interaction conditions, often overlooked by simplified models.

description: We propose a novel modular anomaly equation for the unflavored Schur index in the $\mathcal{N}=4$ $SU(N)$ super-Yang-Mills theory. The vanishing conditions overdetermine the modular ambiguity ansatz from the equation, thus together they are sufficient to recursively compute the exact Schur indices for all $SU(N)$ gauge groups. Using the representations as MacMahon's generalized sum-of-divisors functions and Jacobi forms, we then prove our proposal as well as elucidate a general formula conjectured by Pan and Peelaers.

description: Large scientific collaborations often share huge volumes of data around the world. Consequently a significant amount of network bandwidth is needed for data replication and data access. Users in the same region may possibly share resources as well as data, especially when they are working on related topics with similar datasets. In this work, we study the network traffic patterns and resource utilization for scientific data caches connecting European networks to the US. We explore the efficiency of resource utilization, especially for network traffic which consists mostly of transatlantic data transfers, and the potential for having more caching node deployments. Our study shows that these data caches reduced network traffic volume by 97% during the study period. This demonstrates that such caching nodes are effective in reducing wide-area network traffic.

description: Der Aufsatz widmet sich der bis heute kontrovers geführte Diskussion um das wissenschaftliche Eigentum, das die individuellen Rechte im Übergangsbereich zwischen Urheber- und Patentrecht stärken soll, indem es die Rechte der angestellten Wissenschaftler an Universitäten, in Forschungslaboratorien und in der Industrie regelt. Anhand der bereits früh aufkeimenden Frage nach den Legitimationsgründen wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse untersucht der Beitrag, wie die Einführung dieser neuen Kategorie im 19. Jahrhundert am Vorrang scheiterte, den die wissenschaftlichen Akteure der Professionalisierung ihrer jeweiligen Disziplinen einräumten, indem sie die Ausbildung eines gemeinsamen Wissenskanons und einheitlicher Begrifflichkeiten höher bewerteten als die rechtliche und moralische Anerkennung von Einzelleistungen in Form exklusiver Eigentumsansprüche auf Forschungsergebnisse. Für das 20. Jahrhundert zeigt der Autor, wie die lauter werdende Forderung nach einem wissenschaftlichen Eigentum an den Inhabern von Patentrechten scheiterten, die mit der Unterscheidung zwischen public domain und Industrie verhinderten, dass wissenschaftliche Forschung unter proprietären Gesichtspunkten reflektiert wurde.

description: In this work, a novel energy-recycling single-antenna full-duplex (FD) radio is designed, in which a new 3-port element including a power divider and an energy harvester is added between the circulator and the receiver (RX) chain. The presence of this new element brings advantages over the state of the art in terms of both spectral efficiency and energy consumption. In particular, it provides the means of performing both an arbitrary attenuation of the incoming signal, which in turn increases the effectiveness of the state-of-the-art self-interference cancellation strategies subsequently adopted in the RX chain, and the recycling of a non-negligible portion of the energy leaked through the non-ideal circulator. The performance of this architecture is analyzed in a practically relevant 4-node scenario in which 2 nodes operate in FD and 2 nodes in half-duplex (HD). Analytical approximations are derived for both the achievable rates of the transmissions performed by the FD and HD radios and the energy recycled by the FD radios. The accuracy of these derivations is confirmed by numerical simulations. Quantitatively, achievable rate gains up to 40% over the state-of-the-art alternatives, in the considered scenario, are highlighted. Furthermore, up to 50% of the leaked energy at the circulator, i.e., 5% of the energy of the transmitted signal, can be recycled.

description: Der Aufsatz untersucht am Beispiel der Propertisierung traditionellen Wissens die sozialen und politischen Konsequenzen der Erweiterung des geistigen Eigentums auf Gegenstände, die bis dahin primär einer kulturellen Logik unterstanden. Der Autor analysiert die Komplexität und Kontingenz einer global governance geistiger Eigentumsrechte, sobald diese mit den Anforderungen einer globalen Informationsgesellschaft und der Privatisierung und Ökonomisierung weiter Teile der angewandten Forschung konfrontiert wird. Dabei skizziert er ein mehrdimensionales Spannungsfeld, das geprägt ist vom wirtschaftlichen und politischen Ungleichgewicht zwischen den Industrie- und Entwicklungsländern, von Interessenskonflikten zwischen den lokalen, nationalen, multinationalen und zwischenstaatlichen Akteuren, von nicht hinreichend aufeinander abgestimmten Problemlösungsstrategien und von unterschiedlichen kulturellen Bewertungen des Verhältnisses von Gemeinschaft und Individuum. Der Beitrag führt zu zwei Erkenntnissen: Das Beispiel Indien zeigt, dass staatliche und private Akteure sich nicht notwendigerweise als Interessengemeinschaft im Kampf gegen die Propertisierungswut westlicher Unternehmen begreifen. Zweitens zeigt er, wie die Institutionalisierung des westlichen Modells einer exklusiven Eigentümerschaft an Erfindungen und technischen Innovationen in internationalen Konventionen und handelspolitischen Abkommen eine Situation geschaffen hat, in der nur noch die Rahmenbedingungen, aber nicht mehr die Propertisierung traditionellen Wissens verhandelt werden kann.

description: Anhand des Patentschutzes zeigt der Aufsatz, dass die global governance dieser Rechte seit der Einführung eines internationalen Patentschutzes 1883 von einer kritischen Diskussion begleitet wurde über die handelshemmende und die handelsfördernde Wirkung von Patenten sowie über den Verlust staatlicher Entscheidungshoheit. Dabei stellt die Autorin drei Entwicklungslinien heraus, die die Vertiefung des internationalen Patentschutzes im 20. Jahrhundert prägten: Ein zyklisches Aufflammen dieser Diskussion, sobald die Rechte der Patentinhaber substantiell gestärkt wurden; die Verschiebung der Konfliktlinie von einer europäischen Auseinandersetzung zu einem Streit zwischen Industrie- und Entwicklungsländern im Gefolge der stärkeren Regulierung der Weltwirtschaft nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg; und schließlich die Neuausrichtung des Patentschutzes im Rahmen der WTO, die sich die im geistigen Eigentum angelegte Tendenz zur Ausdehnung der Schutzgegenstände in Zeit und Raum für die Integration neuer Gegenstandsbereiche und für die Formulierung strikter Teilnahmebedingungen an internationalen Handelsnetzwerken zunutze macht.

The Propertisation and Internationalisation of Culture in the 20th century

Publisher: name: Leipziger Universitätsverlag
Year: 2011

description: Der Aufsatz problematisiert die Rolle internationaler Organisationen bei der Propertisierung kultureller Güter seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert. Die Autorin argumentiert, dass die internationalen Organisationen die Einführung eines weltweiten Autorenschutzes maßgeblich beförderten, indem sie den grundsätzlichen Konflikt zwischen Kultur exportierenden und Kultur importierenden Staaten, der die Internationalisierung geistiger Eigentumsrechte von Beginn an begleitete, zu Gunsten der Rechteinhaber lösten. Die Funktion der internationalen Organisationen bestand vor allem darin, Befürwortern und Gegnern einen institutionellen Ort für den Streit über die kultur- und wirtschaftspolitischen Vor- und Nachteile eines eigentumsförmigen Managements kultureller Güter bereitzustellen, ohne dabei jedoch den Umgang mit Kultur und Wissen in Eigentumskategorien grundsätzlich infrage zu stellen. Obwohl diese politischen Kontroversen die Ausdehnung eines internationalen Autorenschutzes bisweilen verkomplizierten, trieb diese Praxis die Einführung weltweit gültiger Autorenrechte langfristig voran, indem sie die Verknüpfung von Kultur und Eigentum stärkte und die Ausarbeitung alternativer Strategien zur Regelung von Kultur und Wissen marginalisierte.

description: Non-invertible symmetries have recently been understood to provide interesting contraints on RG flows of QFTs. In this work, we show how non-invertible symmetries can also be used to generate entirely new RG flows, by means of so-called "non-invertible twisted compactification". We illustrate the idea in the example of twisted compactifications of 4d $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills (SYM) to three dimensions. After giving a catalogue of non-invertible symmetries descending from Montonen-Olive duality transformations of 4d $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM, we show that twisted compactification by non-invertible symmetries can be used to obtain 3d $\mathcal{N}=6$ theories which appear otherwise unreachable if one restricts to twists by invertible symmetries.
