Cross-Bronx, Trans-Manhattan: Preserving a Significant Urban Expressway and Its Megastructure
Creators: Caratzas, Michael Dimitrios

Historic preservation

Roads--Preservation

description: Urban superhighways have long been seen as enemies of preservation and neighborhood conservation efforts. But with many now topping or approaching 50 years of age, the time has come for preservationists and planners to reconsider these immense engineering works, many of which are historically and aesthetically significant products of the modern era and important components of the contemporary urban experience. This paper seeks to broaden the scope of historic preservation to include post-World War II urban limited-access highways by establishing the significance of the Cross-Bronx Expressway (1945-64), one of the most controversial projects of New York City public works guru Robert Moses, and one of his last. Examined are the history and design of the highway and of the "accidental megastructure" complex atop the adjacent Trans-Manhattan Expressway, consisting of the George Washington Bridge Bus Station (1963) and Bridge Apartments (1964), and "View from the Road" analysis is carried out to document the aesthetics of the Cross-Bronx from the driver's point of view. Also looked at is the expressway's long-term impact on the East Tremont neighborhood in the central Bronx, which it passes through. A framework for planning the preservation of the Cross-Bronx and the Trans-Manhattan megastructure is provided, as are recommendations for interpreting the history and culture of the highway and its adjacent neighborhoods for local residents and for motorists. This paper is intended for use by highway engineers and planners, and others with design control over the Cross-Bronx and similar urban expressways, which have gone largely unappreciated as historic resources; preservationists and others nationally and internationally who are interested in understanding the design, historic significance, and important features of post-World War II urban superhighways and megastructures, and in promoting their preservation; and residents of neighborhoods through which historic expressways pass.

description: We prove that, for the quon algebra, which interpolates between the Bose and Fermi statistics and depends on a free parameter q,it is possible to build an su(2) irreducible representation. One of the consequences of this fact is that the quons couple via the same angular momentum coupling rules obeyed by ordinary bosons and fermions.

description: In its additive version, Bohr-Mollerup's remarkable theorem states that the unique (up to an additive constant) convex solution $f(x)$ to the equation $Δf(x)=\ln x$ on the open half-line $(0,\infty)$ is the log-gamma function $f(x)=\lnΓ(x)$, where $Δ$ denotes the classical difference operator and $Γ(x)$ denotes the Euler gamma function. In a recently published open access book, the authors provided and illustrated a far-reaching generalization of Bohr-Mollerup's theorem by considering the functional equation $Δf(x)=g(x)$, where $g$ can be chosen from a wide and rich class of functions that have convexity or concavity properties of any order. They also showed that the solutions $f(x)$ arising from this generalization satisfy counterparts of many properties of the log-gamma function (or equivalently, the gamma function), including analogues of Bohr-Mollerup's theorem itself, Burnside's formula, Euler's infinite product, Euler's reflection formula, Gauss' limit, Gauss' multiplication formula, Gautschi's inequality, Legendre's duplication formula, Raabe's formula, Stirling's formula, Wallis's product formula, Weierstrass' infinite product, and Wendel's inequality for the gamma function. In this paper, we review the main results of this new and intriguing theory and provide an illustrative application.

description: This narrative-based qualitative research investigated the distinct journeys of eight cross-cultural artists (four artists from South Korea and four artists from China). Utilizing a variety of theoretical frameworks surrounding cross-cultural research, this dissertation examined current discussions on cross-cultural challenges and their implications in the field of art education. Methods of data collection focused primarily on interviews and were examined through the lens of Bandura’s (1997) self-efficacy theory. Evaluating the lived experiences of artists illuminated nuances in cross-cultural environments, specifically, how socio-cultural transitions influenced their artwork and professional lives. The findings of this research correlate with previous literature surrounding current challenges in the lives of cross-cultural students. These challenges were discussed in the context of how art educators can best confront issues that emerge in the classroom. The analysis and discussion presented in this thesis seeks to provide insights into the experiences of cross-cultural artists, while highlighting the educational implications for both artists and educators.
Non-integrable dimers: Universal fluctuations of tilted height profiles

description: We study a class of close-packed dimer models on the square lattice, in the presence of small but extensive perturbations that make them non-determinantal. Examples include the 6-vertex model close to the free-fermion point, and the dimer model with plaquette interaction previously analyzed in \cite{A,AL,GMT17a,GMT17b}. By tuning the edge weights, we can impose a non-zero average tilt for the height function, so that the considered models are in general not symmetric under discrete rotations and reflections. In the determinantal case, height fluctuations in the massless (or `liquid') phase scale to a Gaussian log-correlated field and their amplitude is a universal constant, independent of the tilt. When the perturbation strength $λ$ is sufficiently small we prove, by fermionic constructive Renormalization Group methods, that log-correlations survive, with amplitude $A$ that, generically, depends non-trivially and non-universally on $λ$ and on the tilt. On the other hand, $A$ satisfies a universal scaling relation (`Haldane' or `Kadanoff' relation), saying that it equals the anomalous exponent of the dimer-dimer correlation.

description: This qualitative study explores how adult educators use a blended teaching format, that is, the use of face-to-face teaching combined with online technology, to promote cross-cultural understanding between students from different cultures. This study is based upon the following assumptions: (1) cross-cultural understanding can be achieved through blended global education; (2) technology and online international education can help students achieve the benefits of cross-cultural understanding; and (3) by promoting cross-cultural understanding, students will learn to challenge assumptions, create new perspectives, gain global competence, and embrace international diversity.
      This study examines the dedicated work of adult educators who participated in an online international teaching program, to have students from different countries, use technology to collaborate on shared projects in order to foster and promote cross-cultural understanding. The primary sources of data were: in-depth interviews with 20 adult educators, 10 from the United States and 10 from Mexico; a focus group of related academic and university professionals; and documentary analysis.
      The bounded case study examined, among other things, the adult educators' perceptions of differences in teaching in a face-to-face, online, and blended global format; the activities used within a blended global context to promote understanding among students from different cultures; the ways in which adult educators learned how to teach in this environment; and finally, those factors that facilitated or inhibited the process of cross-cultural understanding within this blended global format.
      Key findings included the power paradox of synchronicity; the blended cultural diversity paradigm; the impact of international collegial partnerships; and the anxiety and embrace of language challenges. A key finding was that, based upon the level of technology interaction coupled with the academic content of the collaborative work, students can achieve different levels of cross-cultural understanding from awareness to appreciation to advocacy.
      A primary recommendation from this study is that adult educators and institutions should embrace technology as a creative and innovative way to help students achieve cross-cultural understanding and global competence in today's changing economy.

description: We investigate cooling and trapping of single atoms inside an optical cavity using a quasi-resonant field and a far-off resonant mode of the Laguerre-Gauss type. The far-off resonant doughnut mode provides an efficient trapping in the case when it shifts the atomic internal ground and excited state in the same way, which is particularly useful for quantum information applications of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) systems. Long trapping times can be achieved, as shown by full 3-D simulations of the quasi-classical motion inside the resonator.

We prove the existence of weak solution, taking values in two different spaces, to such an equation using a weak convergence argument on solutions to the approximating stochastic heat equations. For $1<α<2$ the weak solution is a measure-valued càdlàg process. However, for $1<α<5/3$ the weak solution is a càdlàg process taking function values, and in this case we further show that for $0

Representations of the infinite unitary group from constrained quantization
Creators: name: Landsman, Nicolaas P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We attempt to reconstruct the irreducible unitary representations of the Banach Lie group $U_0(\H)$ of all unitary operators $U$ on a separable Hilbert space $\H$ for which $U-{\mathbb I}$ is compact, originally found by Kirillov and Ol'shanskii, through constrained quantization of its coadjoint orbits. For this purpose the coadjoint orbits are realized as Marsden-Weinstein quotients. The unconstrained system, given as a Weinstein dual pair, is quantized by a corresponding Howe dual pair. Constrained quantization is then performed in replacing the classical procedure of symplectic reduction by the $C^*$-algebraic method of Rieffel induction. Reduction and induction have to be performed with respect to either $U(M)$, which is straightforward, or $U(M,N)$. In the latter case one induces from holomorphic discrete series representations, and the desired result is obtained if one ignores half-forms, and induces from a \rep, `half' of whose highest weight is shifted relative to the naive orbit correspondence. This is only possible when $\H$ is finite-dimensional.
Novel setup for detecting short-range anisotropic corrections to gravity

description: In this paper we argue that, even though there are strong theoretical and empirical reasons to expect a violation of spatial isotropy at short distances, contemporary setups for probing gravitational interactions at short distances have not been configured to measure such spatial anisotropies. We propose a simple modification to the state-of-the-art torsion pendulum design and numerically demonstrate that it suppresses signals due to the large spatially-isotropic component of the gravitational force while maintaining a high sensitivity to short-range spatial anisotropies. We incorporate anisotropy using both Yukawa-type and power-law-type short-distance corrections to gravity. The proposed differential torsion pendulum is shown to be capable of making sensitive measurements of small gravitational anisotropies and the resulting anisotropic torques are largely independent of the details of the underlying short-distance modification to gravity. Thus, if there is an anisotropic modification to gravity, from any theory, in any form of the modified potential, the proposed setup provides a practical means of detecting it.

Structural analysis showed a distorted octahedral coordination environment about the Ru(II) centers, and shorter Ru–N(triazole) bond distances compared to Ru–N(pyridine) distances in complexes of mixed-donor ligands. All the complexes were subjected to cyclic voltammetric studies, and the results were compared to the well-known [Ru(bpy)3]2+ compound. The oxidation and reduction potentials were found to be largely uninfluenced by ligand changes, with all the investigated complexes showing their oxidation and reduction steps at rather similar potentials. A combined UV-vis-NIR and EPR spectroelectrochemical investigation, together with DFT calculations, was used to determine the site of electron transfer in these complexes. These results provided insights into their electronic structures in the various investigated redox states, showed subtle differences in the spectroscopic signatures of these complexes despite their similar electrochemical properties, and provided clues to the unperturbed redox potentials in these complexes with respect to ligand substitutions. The reduced forms of the complexes display structured absorption bands in the NIR region. Additionally, we also present new synthetic routes for the ligands presented here using Cu-abnormal carbene catalysts.

description: The accurate and efficient evaluation of Newtonian potentials over general 2-D domains is important for the numerical solution of Poisson's equation and volume integral equations. In this paper, we present a simple and efficient high-order algorithm for computing the Newtonian potential over a planar domain discretized by an unstructured mesh. The algorithm is based on the use of Green's third identity for transforming the Newtonian potential into a collection of layer potentials over the boundaries of the mesh elements, which can be easily evaluated by the Helsing-Ojala method. One important component of our algorithm is the use of high-order (up to order 20) bivariate polynomial interpolation in the monomial basis, for which we provide extensive justification. The performance of our algorithm is illustrated through several numerical experiments.

description: We present an in-depth study of the universal correlations of scattering-matrix entries required in the framework of nonstationary many-body scattering of noninteracting indistinguishable particles where the incoming states are localized wave packets. Contrary to the stationary case, the emergence of universal signatures of chaotic dynamics in dynamical observables manifests itself in the emergence of universal correlations of the scattering matrix at different energies. We use a semiclassical theory based on interfering paths, numerical wave function based simulations, and numerical averaging over random-matrix ensembles to calculate such correlations and compare with experimental measurements in microwave graphs, finding excellent agreement. Our calculations show that the universality of the correlators survives the extreme limit of few open channels relevant for electron quantum optics, albeit at the price of dealing with large-cancellation effects requiring the computation of a large class of semiclassical diagrams.

description: Immediately after their formation, the terrestrial planets experienced intense impact bombardment by comets, leftover planetesimals from primary accretion, and asteroids. This temporal interval in solar system evolution, termed late accretion, thermally and chemically modified solid planetary surfaces and may have impeded the emergence of life on the Hadean Earth. The sources and tempo of late accretion are, however, vague. Here, we present a timeline that relates variably retentive radiometric ages from asteroidal meteorites, to new dynamical models of late accretion that invokes giant planet migration. Reconciliation of the geochronological data with dynamical models shows that giant planet migration immediately leads to an intense 30 Myr influx of comets to the entire solar system. The absence of whole-sale crustal reset ages after 4450 Ma for the most resilient chronometers from Earth, Moon, Mars, Vesta and various meteorite parent bodies confines the onset of giant planet migration to no later than ca. 4480 Ma. Waning impacts from planetesimals, asteroids (and a minor cometary component) continue to strike the inner planets through a protracted monotonic decline in impactor flux; this is in agreement with predictions from crater chronology. Amended global 3-D thermal analytical bombardment models derived from our new impact mass-production functions show that persistent niches for prebiotic chemistry on the early Hadean Earth could endure late accretion for at least the last 4400 Myr.

L’analisi qui presentata intende individuare l'incidenza dell'intenzione co-municativa e il valore della ripetitività di alcuni termini e concetti rari, fino ad oggi parzialmente trascurati dalla critica. In particolare ci soffermeremo sul nesso oculus petulans presente nell'epistolario di Gerolamo: attraverso letture e confronti anche con espressioni simili e confortati da alcune interpretazioni proposte riguardo alla petulantia cristiana, verranno messi in luce temi ricorrenti sulla sessualità, sulla reli-giosità e sull’elemento femminile nell'Epistolografia dei Padri (ma non solo), che confermano il forte valore unitario del messaggio cristiano e il valore strategico del mezzo epistolare.

description: Il lavoro mette a confronto nell’epistolario di Simmaco e nelle iscrizioni romane tardoantiche
dedicate a senatori romani il contenuto ed il rapporto reciproco tra due componenti
essenziali dell’identità aristocratica di questi senatori, la nobilitas ed i merita. La nobilitas,
il richiamo cioè alla storia ed alle tradizioni della famiglia di origine, può limitarsi ad
un richiamo generico o estendersi in un elogio di varia ampiezza, in qualche caso anche
con la citazione degli antenati illustri. I merita, l’apporto personale a questa storia, consistono
spesso nel solo cursus honorum, sottintendendo le qualità con le quali le cariche
erano state esercitate; talora queste virtù sono richiamate esplicitamente e si compongono
in piccoli encomi. Nel caso di iscrizioni onorarie dedicate da città o da provincie il
quadro viene talora ulteriormente arricchito aggiungendo il richiamo, sintetico o relativamente
ampio, ai meriti specifici acquisiti nell’amministrazione o nel patronato della
comunità dedicante. Il giudice dei merita e degli onori resi ai personaggi l’imperatore
stesso o il senato, con l’imperatore che approva il giudizio del senato.

description: The twist polynomial of a delta-matroid was recently introduced by Yan and Jin, who proved a characterization of binary delta-matroids with twist monomials. In this paper, we extend this result to all delta-matroids by proving that any delta-matroid with a twist monomial must be binary.

description: The mushroom body (MB) is the site of odor association learning in Drosophila.  In the canonical model, there are two types of reinforcing dopamine neurons (DANs): one set for rewarding unconditioned stimuli (US), and one responding to aversive US.  When DANs are activated together with an odor (the conditioned stimulus, or CS), plasticity is induced in the downstream output neurons (MBONs).  We have identified a DAN (V1) that surprisingly responds preferentially to odors, and responds weakly or not at all to various classical US.  In order to explore the relationship between V1 odor responses and the established roles of the MB, I characterized the responses of DAN V1, and probed its relationship to odor-driven behavior, associative conditioning, and activity in other MB compartments. These data show that V1 receives recurrent input from identified MBONs, contributes to the activity of an MBON that enhances alerting behavior, and that its odor responses are modulated by conditioning.  We therefore present the study of the alpha2 compartment, which V1 innervates, as the dissection of an atypical compartment of the MB, one that acts as a hub by which various information from other compartments and brain areas is integrated in order to alter a behavioral response to odor.  This work furthers our understanding of the MB not simply as an engine of classical learning, but as a system of diverse interconnected modules that allow coordinated fine control of behavior.

description: A key requirement in studies of endemic vector-borne or zoonotic disease is an estimate of the spatial variation in vector or reservoir host abundance. For many vector species, multiple indices of abundance are available, but current approaches to choosing between or combining these indices do not fully exploit the potential inferential benefits that might accrue from modelling their joint spatial distribution. Here, we develop a class of multivariate generalized linear geostatistical models for multiple indices of abundance. We illustrate this novel methodology with a case study on Norway rats in a low-income urban Brazilian community, where rat abundance is likely risk factor for human leptospirosis. We combine three indices of rat abundance to draw predictive inferences on a spatially continuous latent process, rattiness, that acts as a proxy for abundance. We show how to explore the association between rattiness and spatially varying environmental factors, evaluate the relative importance of each of the three contributing indices and assess the presence of residual, unexplained spatial variation, and identify rattiness hotspots. The proposed methodology is applicable more generally as a tool for understanding the role of vector or reservoir host abundance in predicting spatial variation in the risk of human disease.

description: We study three budget-neutral reforms of the German tax and transfer system designed to improve work incentives for people with low incomes: a feasible flat tax reform that provides a basic income which is equal to the current level of the means tested unemployment benefit, and two alternative reforms that involve employment subsidies to stimulate participation and full-time work, respectively. We estimate labor supply reactions and welfare effects using a microsimulation model based on household data from the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) and a structural labor supply model. We find that all three reforms increase labor supply in the first decile of the income distribution. However, the flat tax scenario reduces overall labor supply by 4.9%, the reform scenario designed to increase participation reduces labor supply by 1%, while the reform that provides improved incentives to work full-time has negligible effects on overall labor supply. With equal welfare weights, aggregate welfare gains are realizable under all three reforms.
Practical Stability Analysis of a Drilling Pipe under Friction with a PI-Controller

description: This paper deals with the exponential stability of a drilling pipe controlled by a PI controller. The model used leads to a coupled ODE / PDE and is consequently of infinite dimension. Using recent advances in time-delay systems, we derive a new Lyapunov functional based on an state extension made up of projections of the Riemann coordinates. Two cases will be considered. First, we will provide an exponential stability result expressed using the LMI framework. This result is dedicated to a linear version of the torsional dynamic. On a second hand, the nonlinear terms in the initial model, that generates the well-known stick-slip phenomenon is captured through a new stability theorem. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the method and that the stick-slip oscillations cannot be weaken using a PI controller.

description: The success of the Internet can be largely attributed to its modular architecture and its high level of abstraction. As a result, the Internet is an extremely heterogeneous network in which a multitude of wireless, electronic, and optical devices coexist. Yet, wireless and optical technologies are approaching their capacity limits. In this thesis, we study cross-layer and cross-domain optimizations in wireless and optical networks to improve the scalability of heterogeneous networks. Specifically, we investigate the benefits in capacity improvement and energy efficiency of improved interaction between different layers, as well as different domains.
      First, we use the Local Pooling (LoP) conditions to identify all the network graphs under primary interference constraints in which Greedy Maximal Scheduling (GMS) achieves 100% throughput. In addition, we show that in all bipartite graphs of size up to 7 x  n, GMS is guaranteed to achieve 66% throughput. Finally, we study the performance of GMS in interference graphs and show that it can perform arbitrarily bad.
      We study the properties of evolving graphs of networks whose structure changes due to node mobility. We present several graph metrics that quantify change in an evolving graph sequence and apply these metrics to several sources of mobility. We relate our results on the effect of the rate of graph change to the performance of higher-layer network algorithms in dynamic networks.
      We then consider optical networks, and formulate a global optimization problem that captures the QoT constraints in future dynamic optical networks. We design a power control algorithm for solving this problem by using feedback from Optical Performance Monitors (OPMs). We evaluate this algorithm via extensive simulations on a network-scale optical network simulator, as well as experiments with commercial optical network equipment.
      Finally, we consider a cellular network with Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) Joint Transmission (JT) capabilities that allow multiple BSs to transmit simultaneously to a single user. We formulate the OFDMA Joint Scheduling (OJS) problem of determining a subframe schedule and deciding if to use JT, and we prove hardness results for this problem. Based on a decomposition framework, we develop efficient scheduling algorithms for bipartite and series-parallel planar graphs, and approximation algorithms for general graphs. We then consider a queueing model that evolves over time, and prove that solving the OJS problem with a specific queue-based utility function (in every subframe) achieves maximum throughput in CoMP-enabled networks.
Realism and the wave-function

description: Realism -- the idea that the concepts in physical theories refer to 'things' existing in the real world -- is introduced as a tool to analyze the status of the wave-function. Although the physical entities are recognized by the existence of invariant quantities, examples from classical and quantum physics suggest that not all the theoretical terms refer to the entities: some terms refer to properties of the entities, and some terms have only an epistemic function. In particular, it is argued that the wave-function may be written in terms of classical non-referring and epistemic terms. The implications for realist interpretations of quantum mechanics and on the teaching of quantum physics are examined.
