description: The concept of scale factor duality is considered within the context of the spatially homogeneous, vacuum Brans-Dicke cosmologies. In the Bianchi class A, it is found that duality symmetries exist for the types I, II, VI_0, VII_0, but not for types VIII and IX. The Kantowski-Sachs and locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi type III models also exhibit a scale factor duality, but no such symmetries are found for the Bianchi type V. In this way anisotropy and spatial curvature may have important effects on the nature of such dualities.

description: A new method for generating entangled photons with controllable frequency correlation via spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) is presented. The method entails initiating counter-propagating SPDC in a single-mode nonlinear waveguide by pumping with a pulsed beam perpendicular to the waveguide. The method offers several advantages over other schemes, including the ability to generate frequency-correlated photon pairs regardless of the dispersion characteristics of the system. Numerical evidence demonstrates the improvement provided by this source in the special case of frequency-correlated two-photon states.

Notes
Begonia sect. Australes was treated as synonymous with B. sect. Eupetalum until it was reinstated by Moonlight et al. (2018) on the basis of phylogenetic data. The section was recently revised by Tebbitt (2020) and includes the majority of tuberous, caulescent species of Andean Begonia with large flowers and bifid styles. Begonia sect. Australes is most diverse in Bolivia and northwest Argentina, and we recognise three species from central and southern Peru.

description: In their seminal paper Birkhoff and von Neumann revealed the following dilemma: "... whereas for logicians the orthocomplementation properties of negation were the ones least able to withstand a critical analysis, the study of mechanics points to the distributive identities as the weakest link in the algebra of logic." In this paper we eliminate this dilemma, providing a way for maintaining both. Via the introduction of the "missing" disjunctions in the lattice of properties of a physical system while inheriting the meet as a conjunction we obtain a complete Heyting algebra of propositions on physical properties. In particular there is a bijective correspondence between property lattices and propositional lattices equipped with a so called operational resolution, an operation that exposes the properties on the level of the propositions. If the property lattice goes equipped with an orthocomplementation, then this bijective correspondence can be refined to one with propositional lattices equipped with an operational complementation, as such establishing the claim made above. Formally one rediscovers via physical and logical considerations as such respectively a specification and a refinement of the purely mathematical result by Bruns and Lakser (1970) on injective hulls of meet-semilattices. From our representation we can derive a truly intuitionistic functional implication on property lattices, as such confronting claims made in previous writings on the matter. We also make a detailed analysis of disjunctivity vs. distributivity and finitary vs. infinitary conjunctivity, we briefly review the Bruns-Lakser construction and indicate some questions which are left open.

description: We explore the thermodynamic analysis at the apparent horizon in the framework of Rastall theory of gravity. We take different entropies such as the Bakenstein, logarithmic corrected, power law corrected, and the Renyi entropies. We investigate the first law and generalized second law of thermodynamics analytically for these entropies which hold under certain conditions. Furthermore, the behavior of the total entropy in each case is analyzed. As a result, it is implied that the generalized second law of thermodynamics is satisfied. We also check whether the thermodynamic equilibrium condition for these entropies is met at the present horizon.

Working on Life: Autonomy and Dependence for People with Intellectual Disability

subject: Intellectual disability--Social aspects

description: Traditional conceptions of autonomy, which highlight the separation of the individual from the social forces around them, contradict a core assumption of sociological thought: that the individual is embedded in society. What then are we to make of autonomy’s cultural power to structure a person’s relationships and commitments? Moreover, how do people maintain autonomous social identities despite the dependencies that structure modern life? I explore these questions through ethnographic inquiry of the daily negotiation of carework and autonomy at an independent living community for adults with intellectual disability. I find that autonomous social identity emerges when autonomous actions are socially and temporally distanced from the actions of others. By framing dependence as a momentary state on the way to a more autonomous future, staff attribute autonomy to participants based on their progress toward future goals. The result is paradoxical. When daily productivity becomes the most salient indicator of autonomy, participants are obligated to be autonomous as a condition for their status as adults. I argue that this obligation to autonomy is a basic mechanism through which social institutions, like adulthood, induce self-governance as a mechanism of social control.

Interface and contact line motion in a two phase fluid under shear flow

description: A coarse grained description of a two phase fluid is used to study the steady state configuration of the interface separating the coexisting phases, and the motion of the contact line at which the interface intersects a solid boundary. The fluid is set in motion by displacing two parallel, infinite solid boundaries along their own plane. Dissipative relaxation of the order parameter leads to interfacial slip at the contact line, even when no-slip boundary conditions for the fluid velocity are considered. This relaxation occurs within a characteristic length scale l that depends on the order parameter mobility, the equilibrium interfacial tension, the imposed wall velocity, the thermal correlation length, the equilibrium miscibility gap, and the mutual diffusion coefficient. Steady-state interface equations which describe the system on a length scale large compared to the correlation length are derived. Scaling forms which involve the ratio l/L, where L is the width of the fluid layer, and the capillary number follow from the interface equations. The scaling results are verified by direct numerical solution of the governing equations.

description: Indications from Gaia data release 2 (DR2) are that the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB, a population II standard candle related to the helium flash in low mass stars) is close to -4 in absolute I magnitude in the Cousins photometric system. Our sample is high latitude southern stars from the thick disk and inner halo, and our result is consistent with longstanding findings from globular clusters, whose distances were calibrated with RR Lyrae stars. As the Gaia mission proceeds, there is every reason to think an accurate Galactic geometric calibration of TRGB will be a significant outcome.

description: Recently, the influence of leakage delay on the dynamics of integer-order neural networks has been investigated extensively. It has been confirmed that fractional calculus can depict the memory and hereditary attributes of neural networks more accurately. In this paper, we study the existence of Hopf bifurcation in a six-neuron fractional bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural network with leakage delay. By selecting two appropriate bifurcation parameters and analyzing corresponding characteristic equations, it is verified that the delayed fractional neural network generates a Hopf bifurcation when the bifurcation parameters pass through some critical values. In order to measure how much impact of leakage delay on Hopf bifurcation, sensitivity analysis methods, such as scatter plots and partial rank correlation coefficients (PRCCs), are introduced to assess the sensitivity of bifurcation amplitudes to leakage delay. Numerical examples are carried out to illustrate the theoretical results and help us gain an insight into the effect of leakage delay vividly.
From Taub Numbers to the Bondi Mass

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Taub numbers are studied on asymptotically flat backgrounds with Killing symmetries. When the field equations are solved for a background spacetime and higher order functional derivatives (higher order variational derivatives of the Hilbert Lagrangean) are solved for perturbations from the background, such perturbed space-times admit zeroth, first, and second order Taub numbers. Zeroth order Taub numbers are Komar constants (upto numerical factors) or Penrose-Goldberg constants of the background. For a Killing symmetry of the background, first order Taub numbers give the contribution of the linearized perturbation to the associated backgound quantity, such as the perturbing mass. Second order Taub numbers give the contribution of second order perturbations to the background quantity. The Bondi mass is a sum of first and second order Taubs numbers on a Minkowski background.

The goal is to develop an emulator which is trained online and is capable of fast predictive computations. The training is illustrated on synthetic data generated based on available open-source dynamical generator model. Two ML techniques were developed and tested: (a) standard vector auto-regressive (VAR) model; and (b) novel customized long short-term memory (LSTM) deep learning model. Trade-offs in reconstruction ability between computationally light but linear AR model and powerful but computationally demanding LSTM model are established and analyzed.

description: A new quantum cryptography implementation is presented that combines one-way operation with an autocompensating feature that has hitherto only been available in implementations that require the signal to make a round trip between the users. Using the concept of advanced waves, it is shown that this new implementation is related to the round-trip implementations in the same way that Ekert's two-particle scheme is related to the original one-particle scheme of Bennett and Brassard. The practical advantages and disadvantages of the proposed implementation are discussed in the context of existing schemes.

Second language acquisition--Methodology

description: Over the past several decades, research that explored various teaching-and-learning contexts has provided valuable insights into teacher-learner interactional practices in second language classrooms. Many of these practices focus on learners’ language accuracy by targeting the correct answer, a worthy but perhaps insufficient goal; an additional teacher responsibility is to encourage learners to build on their understanding by reasoning through that correct answer. This current study adds to previous research by examining how one experienced teacher and her adult ESL students in a community language program in the U.S. engage in a particular type of interactive, collaborative work on understanding that moves beyond what is correct to why it is correct, which I call “digging.” Based on a conversation analytic examination of 15 hours of video-recorded classroom interaction, the findings showcase two complementary types of teacher-led digging that are preceded by a critical “pre-digging” phase, during which the teacher redirects learners’ attention and constitutes a group that will work together as a collective. The first type of digging zooms in on one particular language issue which the teacher frames as a language challenge for the group and works collaboratively with the collective toward resolving it. The second type of digging, by contrast, zooms out from a specific language issue to a larger pattern in either the learners’ native languages or the target language, English. In both types of digging, exploratory talk and various scaffolding techniques are employed to promote participation and learner agency. The findings contribute to the literature on classroom interaction by specifying, in fine-grained detail, the how-to of these teacher interactional practices during whole group work on understanding which involves the intricate work of every gaze, every gesture, every posture shift, every utterance, and every second of silence. Such specifications also enrich teacher educators’ pedagogical content knowledge by providing them a common language to talk about, and illuminate the complexity of, teaching as they guide students to “see” such complexity.
Woven Paintings, Woven Writing:  Intermediality in Kesi Silk Tapestry in the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1912) Dynasties

description: This dissertation explores pictorial kesi, silk-woven tapestry, from its origins in China through the Qing dynasty, focusing on objects and sources from the Ming and Qing periods. While pictorial kesi imitated the visual appearance of paintings and calligraphy, no in-depth study of the three media in relation to each other has been undertaken. By approaching kesi through the techniques of the weaver and the materiality of the finished product, this dissertation explores an important pictorial art form on its own terms.
      This dissertation is divided into two parts, the first focusing on the origins, technology and techniques of weaving kesi in China. While tapestry weave was imported from Central Asia in the seventh century, Chinese craftsmen embraced the technology of creating colorful clear designs in silk and used it to imitate court paintings of the Song dynasty in the twelfth century. The author will study the intricate techniques of color blending and color joining that were developed by Chinese weavers to create complicated, beautiful images inspired by paintings. Looking at a kesi reproduction of a calligraphy scroll by Dong Qichang (1555-1636), I will analyze kesi calligraphy through the process of its making and the meaning in its materiality, as well as the political implications of this work.
      The second part will study kesi in relationship to the visual arts, focusing on painting.  Examining a kesi attributed to the woman weaver Zhu Kerou (active twelfth century) will shed light not only on the practice of weaving painting-like images but also on the elaborate system of male connoisseurship in the Ming and Qing dynasties that judged and categorized it. Lastly, focusing on a composition attached to the name of a famous Ming painter, Shen Zhou (1427-1509), this dissertation will study the issue of authorship in kesi and the practice of adding famous names to woven compositions.
      Through studying the issues of intermediality, reproduction, connoisseurship, and materiality, the author will shed a new light on kesi, believed for so long to be decorative copies of paintings. These works incorporate complex techniques developed to solve aesthetic problems and have a unique visual language of their own. Through this study, the objects, so carefully and painstakingly created by craftsmen and weavers, will begin to speak for themselves.

description: Public key infrastructures (PKIs) are one of the main building blocks for securing communications over the Internet. Currently, PKIs are under the control of centralized authorities, which is problematic as evidenced by numerous incidents where they have been compromised. The distributed, fault tolerant log of transactions provided by blockchains and more recently, smart contract platforms, constitutes a powerful tool for the decentralization of PKIs. To verify the validity of identity records, blockchain-based identity systems store on chain either all identity records, or, a small (or even constant) sized amount of data to verify identity records stored off chain. However, as most of these systems have never been implemented, there is little information regarding the practical implications of each design's tradeoffs. In this work, we first implement and evaluate the only provably secure, smart contract based PKI of [1] on top of Ethereum. This construction incurs constant-sized storage at the expense of computational complexity. To explore this tradeoff, we propose and implement a second construction which, eliminates the need for trusted setup, preserves the security properties of [1] and, as illustrated through our evaluation, is the only version with constant-sized state that can be deployed on the live chain of Ethereum. Furthermore, we compare these two systems with the simple approach of most prior works, e.g., the Ethereum Name Service, where all identity records are stored on the smart contract's state, to illustrate several shortcomings of Ethereum and its cost model. We propose several modifications for fine tuning the model, which would be useful to be considered for any smart contract platform like Ethereum so that it reaches its full potential to support arbitrary distributed applications.

description: Due to its significant role in the fight against apartheid, it is no surprise that South African township theatre will always be upheld and romanticized as a thing of the past. It is often described as such because of its inextricable link to protest and resistance. As a result, the majority of plays that were published during that time have now fallen into the South African theatre canon. However, there has been a substantial amount of theatre emerging out of the township since South Africa’s democratization in 1994 - even though this theatre is arguably less prominent than that of its predecessors. This very work, much like that of pre-1994, continues to speak to the country’s socio-political and economic conditions. In a thorough examination of my dramaturgical journey in writing the play Avalon, this casebook seeks to unpack my processes as a township theatre playwright, in a humble attempt to further the discourse and understanding of how township theatre can still function and be understood today.

 Notes. Combined ITS, LSU, RPB2 and TEF1-α gene analysis of this study showed that our isolates (SAUCC200313, SAUCC200314) formed an distinct clade with a high support value (99%/0.99) (Fig. 1). Coniella castanea differs from C. quercicola by 31 nucleotides (5/ 562 in ITS, 2/ 1172 in LSU, 15/ 768 in RPB2 and 9/ 333 in TEF1-α). Morphologically, our collections differ from C. quercicola in having large conidia (14.20–22.92 × 2.51–4.11 vs. 13.00–19.00 × 2.00–3.50 μm) (l: w, 6.3 vs. 5.3), smaller conidiogenous cells (3.71–7.21 × 2.14–4.25 vs. 8.00–16.00 × 1.00–2.50 μm) and color of conidiomata (dark yellowish-gray vs. olivaceous to black) (Alvarez et al. 2016). Based on phylogeny, morphology and nucleotide differences, we introduce our isolates as a novel species, Coniella castanea.

Writing Against the Reader: Poetry and Readership in France 1840-1880
Creators: Lerescu, Jacqueline Michelle
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2015
Subjects: Literature

description: This dissertation examines the changing ways in which nineteenth-century French poets addressed readers and constructed relationships with them from the late Romantic period through the rise of the Symbolist movement. While poetry’s increased isolation from the public is recognized as an important facet of the evolution of nineteenth-century poetry, the specific reasons for this have not been broadly studied. This dissertation first examines the poet-reader relationship in prefaces to poetic works, examining the shift from Romantic poets such as Victor Hugo and Alphonse de Lamartine, who considered addressing humanity an important part of their vocation, to mid-century poets such as Charles Baudelaire, Lautréamont and Charles Cros, who used prefaces to criticize and chase away readers, to later poets such as Stéphane Mallarmé and Arthur Rimbaud, who abstained from addressing readers by not writing prefaces or publishing their poetry. In order to understand the reasons for this shift, this dissertation examines new media and new readers which these poets rejected as the antithesis of poetry: the press, women and working-class readers. This dissertation studies poetry and critical articles in the mainstream press, women’s publications and publications by and for workers to reveal the models of the poet-reader relationship they presented. In so doing, it creates a broader view of poetic practices and readership in this period, which remain understudied in literary history. The models of the poet-reader relationship evident there demonstrate that rather than ignoring or rejecting them, elite poets defined poetry and readership in direct relation to these other practices and audiences.
Worse Off But Happier? The Affective Advantages of Entering the Workforce During an Economic Downturn

description: Recently economists have shown that people who graduate during recessions earn less money and hold less prestigious jobs, even decades after entering the workforce. This dissertation argues that despite these suboptimal outcomes, these graduates are likely to be happier with their jobs, even long after these economic conditions have changed. Four studies found that people who entered the workforce when the economy was sputtering and jobs were difficult to secure were more satisfied with their jobs than their peers who entered during better economic times, even decades after these early workforce experiences. Study 1 utilized a large cross-sectional national survey of working adults in the United States and found that college graduates who first looked for work during difficult economic times were more satisfied with their jobs well into their careers. Study 2 found that people who graduated from both college and graduate school during times of higher unemployment were happier with their jobs both early in their careers and years later, even when they earned less money. Study 3 replicated this effect in a different country, the United Kingdom, and among a more diverse educational population. Study 3 found that economic conditions at workforce entry predicted life satisfaction as well. Finally, Study 4 explored potential mediators of this effect and suggested that people who entered the workforce during economic downturns were less likely to entertain upward counterfactual thoughts about how they might have done better. This tendency fully mediated the relationship between workforce economic conditions and job satisfaction. While past research on job satisfaction has focused on dispositional and situational antecedents, these findings suggest that strong experiential factors also may have an enduring effect on how satisfied people are with their jobs.

description: This dissertation explores teacher identities as they emerge, recede and collide with one another in the classrooms of four participating English teachers at the Cooperative School, a pseudonymous, single school site that is home to the researcher as well as to the study participants. Focusing first on how these teachers see themselves and how they articulate their roles, the study then turns to an analysis based on Judith Butler's theories of identity formation. The role of normative power in identity formation is exemplified by what the paper calls "The Regime of Teacher Norms," i.e., Teacher as Expert, Teacher as Guide, Teacher as Professional and Teacher as Boss.

description: In arXiv: math.LO/0011208 we proposed the {\sl intuitionistic or disjunctive representation of quantum logic}, i.e., a representation of the property lattice of physical systems as a complete Heyting algebra of logical propositions on these properties, where this complete Heyting algebra goes equipped with an additional operation, the {\sl operational resolution}, which identifies the properties within the logic of propositions. This representation has an important application ``towards dynamic quantum logic'', namely in describing the temporal indeterministic propagation of actual properties of physical systems. This paper can as such by conceived as an addendum to ``Quantum Logic in Intuitionistic Perspective'' that discusses spin-off and thus provides an additional motivation. We derive a quantaloidal semantics for dynamic disjunctive quantum logic and illustrate it for the particular case of a perfect (quantum) measurement.
