description: Unforgeable quantum money tokens were the first invention of quantum information science, but remain technologically challenging as they require quantum memories and/or long distance quantum communication. More recently, virtual 'S-money' tokens were introduced. These are generated by quantum cryptography, do not require quantum memories or long distance quantum communication, and yet in principle guarantee many of the security advantages of quantum money. Here, we describe implementations of S-money schemes with off-the-shelf quantum key distribution technology, and analyse security in the presence of noise, losses, and experimental imperfection. Our schemes satisfy near instant validation without cross-checking. We show that, given standard assumptions in mistrustful quantum cryptographic implementations, unforgeability and user privacy could be guaranteed with attainable refinements of our off-the-shelf setup. We discuss the possibilities for unconditionally secure (assumption-free) implementations.

description: I am bleeding. I have tried to stop the flow but the pulsation refuses to cease. The red keeps on coming, spilling onto the pages and into the bodily fissures and gaps of the two lives I am trying to re-member. It doesn’t disrupt me, but I fear it will interrupt others. I have been told I’m not supposed to be in this text.
Neat intervals. That’s where I can appear. If I must. Clearly marked, explaining my presence, my reason for interrupting the flow, the delivery, the unravelling of form. History and those grandfather-greats tell me my place in the text creates air-bubbles – pocketed moments of auto – making biography auto/biographical/bio(auto)graphy; slipping knots between the seemingly seamless divisions that demarcate the now and the then, the past and the present, the beginning and the end. A life is a life is a life. And I am me because my little biography knows me.
Perhaps that is why I am finding this so difficult to write? I am not used to taking up this space, this auto/theoretical/biographical mass. I have been taught to be "objective," even though I know objectivity to be a fallacy. It wasn’t meant to be like this. And yet, I am already lodged deep within the walls of this text.
Writing lives will do this to you. Like the scraps of a love letter that emit dangerous possibilities, biography is a story of erotics that can’t help but sweat with autographic desire.

description: How does one do philosophy? What does it involve? Let us consider the most famous image of philosophising in the Western canon. It is a self-image, offered to us by Descartes. For Descartes, doing philosophy involves a high degree of both solitude and introspection. He writes in 1637 that, since emigrating from his native France to Holland, “I have been able to lead a life as solitary and withdrawn as if I were in the most remote desert …” After withdrawing from society, Descartes attempts to distance himself from his own younger self, the credulous child who had, he tells us, accepted a “large number of falsehoods” as true. Sitting alone by the fire in his dressing-gown, he asks himself: Of what can I be certain? The reality of fire, dressing-gown and embodiment itself disappear down the plughole of his reductivist cogitations, and at last he replies: “[T]hat absolutely nothing else belongs to my nature or essence except that I am a thinking thing.” After which he reluctantly consents to put his body and dressing-gown back on, insisting all the while that they are completely detachable from “this puzzling ‘I’.” Cartesian philosophising, then, is an extreme form of doing battle with illusion; it is about subtracting everything that’s even the least bit suspect in order to get to the truth, that evasive little kernel of certainty around which we can (perhaps) build a life, if and when we are brave enough to engage with the world again.

description: Could there be a more telling example than that of The (International) Noise Conspiracy, a self-proclaimed revolutionary rock band steeped in Situationist rhetoric, dancing on music programs in über-stylish clothes singing “Everything is up for sale”? Is it the ultimate subversion: the repositioning of dominant structures of the culture industry, turning them into opposition voices? Or, is it the ultimate recuperation, the transformation of the expression of alienation and revolt into niche commodities for expanding youth markets: the conversion of dissent into a spectacle of harmless dissent? Counter-culture (especially that based around “youth”) is now a fundamental part of the life of global cyber-industrial civilisation. Often critiqued as a pastime for middle-class children in Western nations, anecdotal evidence suggests people all over the world participate in counter-culture on deep personal levels. Despite the conception that counter-culture is a diversion for bored suburban youth of the Global North, places like Malaysia have as large “metal” scenes as Australia.

description: If we can say that madness has come to occupy a "common place" inside culture and specifically "inside" cultural theory, the figure of the schizophrenic exists at the intersection of three distinct theoretical trajectories in contemporary literary and cultural studies. For the psychoanalytic critic, each schizophrenic symptom encodes a psychic secret, and invites decryption of the kind Freud and his successors made famous in their analyses of the Schreber case. For others, such as Judith Butler and Slavoj Žižek, schizophrenia marks the limits of subjectivity: exiled to a "psychotic abyss outside the symbolic domain," the schizophrenic designates that which is beyond the intelligible. In contrast to Freud's 'readable symptom' and Butler's 'unreadable sign,' Marxist and post-Marxist theorists read the schizophrenic as 'a sign of the times,' as the exemplary subject of postmodernity. In Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's Anti-Oedipus, Fredric Jameson's "Postmodernism, or the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism," and Jean Baudrillard's The Ecstasy of Communication, specific psychopathological processes in schizophrenia are deployed to diagnose a distinctive psychic structure, one inextricably linked to Western culture in the late twentieth century. These theorists, I suggest, have reinvented the "sacred symbol of psychiatry," positioning the schizophrenic as both postmodernity's anarchic revolutionary (Deleuze and Guattari) and its obscene victim (Jameson and Baudrillard).

description: Background and purpose — T1ρ or T2 relaxation imaging has been increasingly used to evaluate the cartilage of the knee. We investigated the cartilage of ACL-reconstructed knees 3 years after surgery using T2 relaxation times.Patients and methods — 10 patients with a clinically successful unilateral ACL reconstruction were examined 3 years after surgery. Multiple-TE fast-spin echo sagittal images of both knees were acquired using a 3T MRI scanner for T2 mapping of the tibiofemoral cartilage. T2 values of the superficial and deep zones of the tibiofemoral cartilage were analyzed in sub-compartmental areas and compared between the ACL-reconstructed and uninjured contralateral knees.Results — Higher T2 values were observed in 1 or more sub-compartmental areas of each ACL-reconstructed knee compared to the uninjured contralateral side. Most of the T2 increases were observed at the superficial zones of the cartilage, especially at the medial compartment. At the medial compartment of the ACL-reconstructed knee, the T2 values of the femoral and tibial cartilage were increased by 3–81% compared to the uninjured contralateral side, at the superficial zones of the weight-bearing areas. T2 values in the superficial zone of the central medial femoral condyle differed between the 2 groups (p = 0.002).Interpretation — The articular cartilage of ACL-reconstructed knees, although clinically satisfactory, had higher T2 values in the superficial zone of the central medial femoral condyle than in the uninjured contralateral side 3 years after surgery. Further studies are warranted to determine whether these patients would undergo cartilage degeneration over time.

description: We calculate single-logarithmic corrections to the small-$x$ flavor-singlet helicity evolution equations derived recently in the double-logarithmic approximation. The new single-logarithmic part of the evolution kernel sums up powers of $α_s \ln(1/x)$, which are an important correction to the dominant powers of $α_s \ln^2(1/x)$ summed up by the double-logarithmic kernel at small values of Bjorken $x$ and with $α_s$ the strong coupling constant. The single-logarithmic terms arise separately from either the longitudinal or transverse momentum integrals. Consequently, the evolution equations we derive employing the light-cone perturbation theory simultaneously include the small-$x$ evolution kernel and the leading-order polarized DGLAP splitting functions. We further enhance the equations by calculating the running coupling corrections to the kernel.

description: As its name suggests, Science Fiction has always been fundamentally inspired by the possibilities of science. Critics such as Karl S. Gunthke argue that Science Fiction is “a special form of philosophical literature” that deals specifically with an extrapolated scientific innovation, wherein the author of Science Fiction enjoys a “freer rein to his imagination than those who write only as physicists are able to.” Here, Science Fiction is itself thought of as a type of science, wherein hypothesises are investigated through the experimental medium of fiction. Although Gunthke’s definition could hardly be applied to all Science Fiction – he himself only applies it to texts construed by him as worthy – this sort of remark is far from uncommon in critical readings of Science Fiction.
Calcul de la fissuration (espacement, ouverture) des poutres : deux propositions issues du PN CEOS.fr

description: Dans le cadre du projet national CEOS.fr, deux types de poutres ont été testés en flexion quatre points. Il s’agit tout d’abord de poutres massives de 1600 x 800 et de portée 5100mm. Ces essais ont été suivis des mêmes expérimentations sur les mêmes poutres au tiers. Les essais ont consisté en un chargement monotone par palier jusqu’à obtenir une contrainte dans les aciers en traction voisine de la limite d’élasticité. Les espacements et ouvertures de fissures ainsi que les déformations des matériaux et des structures ont été mesurées [1]. A partir de ces mesures, deux méthodes de calcul de la fissuration [2] ont été mises au point. Une première méthode est déduite de celle utilisée dans l’Eurocode 2, revue par le Code Modèle 2010 de la fib. Une deuxième méthode innovante pour l’ouverture des fissures a été mise au point par interpolation entre l’état fissuré et l’état non fissuré. Cette dernière méthode permet de décrire de façon plus précise les ouvertures de fissures aux faibles chargements jusqu’à l’état de fissuration stabilisée.

description: Measurements of event-by-event fluctuations of charged-particle multiplicities in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV using the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presented in the pseudorapidity range $|η|<0.8$ and transverse momentum $0.2 < p_{\rm T} < 2.0$ GeV/$c$. The amplitude of the fluctuations is expressed in terms of the variance normalized by the mean of the multiplicity distribution. The $η$ and $p_{\rm T}$ dependences of the fluctuations and their evolution with respect to collision centrality are investigated. The multiplicity fluctuations tend to decrease from peripheral to central collisions. The results are compared to those obtained from HIJING and AMPT Monte Carlo event generators as well as to experimental data at lower collision energies. Additionally, the measured multiplicity fluctuations are discussed in the context of the isothermal compressibility of the high-density strongly-interacting system formed in central Pb-Pb collisions.

Подчеркивается высокая частота встречаемости данного феномена среди лиц творческих профессий. Приводятся результаты современных методов нейровизуализации, согласно которым при синестезиях отмечается активация корковых зон, связанных с перцепцией. Рассматриваются существующие гипотезы патогенеза синестезий. Акцентируется внимание на нарушение ингибирования церебральных мультимодальных афферентных связей, что может приводить к возникновению данного феномена. В качестве наиболее вероятной причины развития синестезий рассматривается не активация той или иной зоны коры, а изменения всего коннектома, что приводит к нарушению сенсорных процессов, внимания и когнитивного контроля.

description: Stories Without End is a collection of Indigenous writing, published as a special edition of the literary journal, Southerly, and gathered together by Anita Heiss and Penny Van Toorn, guest editors for the occasion. Lionel Fogarty designed the cover image and the collection’s title is based on an essay contributed by Jennifer Martiniello. The result is a major achievement, a collection that easily achieves the editors’ aim of “showcasing the work of recent award-winning writers, alongside new and emerging writers, and more established names … [that will] help break down narrow assumptions of what Indigenous writing is.” But while the writers themselves offer work that is tough, intelligent and passionate, the editors seem to have missed the significance of their cumulative impact. This I think is likely to lead to a more general under-estimation of the collection. I believe it has mana, challenging and changing the Australian literary canon.

description: An element $g$ in a group $G$ is called reversible (or real) if it is conjugate to $g^{-1}$ in $G$, i.e., there exists $h$ in $G$ such that $g^{-1}=hgh^{-1}$. The element $g$ is called strongly reversible if the conjugating element $h$ is an involution (i.e., element of order at most two) in $G$. In this paper, we classify reversible and strongly reversible elements in the isometry groups of $\mathbb{F}$-Hermitian spaces, where $\mathbb{F}=\mathbb{C}$ or $\mathbb{H}$. More precisely, we classify reversible and strongly reversible elements in the groups $ \mathrm{Sp}(n) \ltimes \mathbb{H}^n$, $\mathrm{U}(n) \ltimes \mathbb{C}^n$ and $\mathrm{SU}(n) \ltimes \mathbb{C}^n$. We also give a new proof of the classification of strongly reversible elements in $\mathrm{Sp}(n)$.

description: Background and purpose — Surgical care and pain management for patients with fractures have evolved over the years. We wanted to ascertain if there were any changes in the incidence of non-unions and, if so, whether the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including COX-2 selective inhibitors, might have an effect.Patients and methods — We used the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to estimate the annual number of patients hospitalized for surgical treatment of a non-union between 1993 and 2012, and calculated age-adjusted rates of non-union. We estimated the prevalence of prescriptions for NSAIDs from 1996 through 2012 using the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS). The interrupted time-series analysis was used to relate quarterly rates of non-union to changes in prescriptions for NSAIDs between 1996 and 2009.Results — The annual estimate of non-unions in the USA declined 30% from 25,634 in 1993 to 17,815 in 2012 (p < 0.001). Specifically, the age-adjusted rate of non-unions decreased by 44% from 8.6 per 105 persons in 1996 to 4.8 per 105 persons in 2012 (p < 0.001). However, there was an 8% increase in the incidence rate of non-unions (p = 0.003) between 2000 and 2004, when certain COX-2 selective inhibitors were on the market and their prescriptions were prevalent at around 6% among those with fractures. A drop in non-union estimates from 22,321 in 2010 to 18,789 in 2011 (p = 0.04) also coincided with a marked decrease in prescriptions for NSAIDs in patients with fractures, from 22% to 14% (p = 0.02).Interpretation — Non-unions in the USA declined substantially between 1993 and 2012, but this was interrupted by changes in prescriptions for NSAIDs, with sustained increases between 2000 and 2004 followed by transient decreases in 2005 and 2011.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Graph neural networks (GNN) have been shown to provide substantial performance improvements for atomistic material representation and modeling compared with descriptor-based machine learning models. While most existing GNN models for atomistic predictions are based on atomic distance information, they do not explicitly incorporate bond angles, which are critical for distinguishing many atomic structures. Furthermore, many material properties are known to be sensitive to slight changes in bond angles. We present an Atomistic Line Graph Neural Network (ALIGNN), a GNN architecture that performs message passing on both the interatomic bond graph and its line graph corresponding to bond angles. We demonstrate that angle information can be explicitly and efficiently included, leading to improved performance on multiple atomistic prediction tasks. We ALIGNN models for predicting 52 solid-state and molecular properties available in the JARVIS-DFT, Materials project, and QM9 databases. ALIGNN can outperform some previously reported GNN models on atomistic prediction tasks by up to 85% in accuracy with better or comparable model training speed.

description: Unsupervised image-to-image translation methods have received a lot of attention in the last few years. Multiple techniques emerged tackling the initial challenge from different perspectives. Some focus on learning as much as possible from several target style images for translations while other make use of object detection in order to produce more realistic results on content-rich scenes. In this work, we assess how a method that has initially been developed for single object translation performs on more diverse and content-rich images. Our work is based on the FUNIT[1] framework and we train it with a more diverse dataset. This helps understanding how such method behaves beyond their initial frame of application. We present a way to extend a dataset based on object detection. Moreover, we propose a way to adapt the FUNIT framework in order to leverage the power of object detection that one can see in other methods.

description: Despite, or more likely in view of, the manifold critiques raised both against, and in defence of, the early work of Martin Heidegger, his writing continues to be the source of both great controversy and intellectual influence. Heidegger's impact on the Western tradition is, perhaps, in no small part due to the conscious and idiosyncratic intimacy his philosophical work shares with the origins of the tradition itself, insofar as one might most immediately situate them in the writing of Plato and subsequently Aristotle. For although Heidegger's understanding of 'the Greeks' remains a source of bemusement for many classical scholars, the radicality of his interpretation, and its consequent implications, cannot be so readily dismissed.

description: A unique feature of the complex band structures of moiré materials is the presence of minivalleys, their hybridization, and scattering between them. Here we investigate magneto-transport oscillations caused by scattering between minivalleys - a phenomenon analogous to magneto-intersubband oscillations - in a twisted double bilayer graphene sample with a twist angle of 1.94°. We study and discuss the potential scattering mechanisms and find an electron-phonon mechanism and valley conserving scattering to be likely. Finally, we discuss the relevance of our findings for different materials and twist angles.

description: Does Literature Think? is a difficult book, but it is also a rewarding and exciting book. Each of the ten chapters is researched meticulously and written authoritatively. One has the impression that the author has spent a lot of time thinking about this material. Thus future authors working on the same topics will have to contend with Does Literature Think? In addition, the essays offer unexpected insights delivered in a personal style that is not unconcerned with imparting the pleasures of reading. This would come as no surprise to those who know Gourgouris as an important Greek poet. Nor would the high quality of this volume surprise anyone familiar with his previous book in English, Dream Nation: Enlightenment, Colonization and the Institution of Modern Greece (1996). While the two books do share similar concerns and a common theoretical outlook, the breadth and scope of Does Literature Think? is broader and more ambitious. Where the constant referent of Dream Nation is specifically Greek literature and culture, Does Literature Think? is genuinely comparative, dealing not only with texts from the Greek, but equally with those from the German, the French, and the American canons.

description: What does it mean to call an event by and to conceptualise an event in terms of its name? In the footsteps of Odysseus, we cunning moderns are at less risk than Polyphemus of confusing or conflating the name and the thing. In fact, so clever have we become in dissociating ourselves from our names and disguising ourselves by means of multiple names that it is hardly surprising that the name is now often considered to be a merely arbitrary linguistic mark. Even were this consideration the case, convention governs the use of names in language, which can never be private, and rules of argumentation demonstrably illegitimate or regulate the acceptance of invalid or willful inferences. When an event is named in philosophical discourse, and claims are made about the name evoked, it would appear that reflexive or conceptual criteria of argumentative communication must in some way have been either implicitly or explicitly adopted. Claims are made about the name, and the name comes to serve as an example: in each case, the name is conceptualised in accordance with the anticipated ideal conditions of rational discourse, the conceptual criteria governing valid argumentative reasoning and conceptual thought. If names are mere tokens in conceptual discourse, what is specific to and named in the event is lost. Without conceptual discourse, however, nothing can be said of or about the name.

description: Амелобластома является доброкачественной одонтогенной опухолью, которая преимущественно локализуется в области угла и ветви нижней челюсти, обладает инфильтративным ростом и нередко дает рецидивы, возникновение которых зависит от гистологического строения опухоли. В статье рассмотрен клинический случай рецидива амелобластомы с прорастанием аутотрансплантата, взятого из малоберцовой кости. При микроскопическом исследовании был выявлен плексиформный вариант амелобластомы. Проведенное ИГХ-исследование с маркерами на Ki-67 и β катенин показало наличие высокого уровня пролиферации опухолевых клеток и активность Wnt/β-катенин сигнального пути, что может лежать в основе агрессивного клинического течения амелобластомы, которое характерно для плексиформного и базальноклеточного гистологических вариантов. При установлении вариантов с агрессивным клиническим течением амелобластомы рационально проводить отсроченные реконструктивно восстановительные операции.

description: Fantasies of Fetishism is a compelling, demanding and often entertaining discussion of the extensive cultural implications of “fetishism.” Engaging with a diverse range of cultural texts, Amanda Fernbach endeavours to unsettle and reconfigure the discursive models through which fetishism has traditionally been understood. Fernbach presents a compelling argument for reading fetishistic fantasies outside the strict paradigm of “sexual perversion,” and attempts to demonstrate the relevance of fetishism in rethinking and redefining social norms and identities.

description: Cet article décrit deux tests expérimentaux réalisés à l’Université de Liège dans le cadre d’un projet interne d’ArcelorMittal Global R&D et portant sur l’évolution de la résistance des aciers S460M et S500M à hautes températures. Deux poutres métalliques similaires ont respectivement été soumises à des élévations de température rapide (courbe de feu ISO-834) et lente (vitesse d’échauffement constante de 5°C par minute) sous chargement mécanique constant. La réalisation de ces 2 tests avait pour objectif de fournir des données expérimentales sur l’évolution de la résistance des aciers S460M et S500M dans le domaine critique de température [550°C ; 650°C]. Une comparaison entre les résultats expérimentaux et les résultats de simulations numériques faites en utilisant les facteurs de réduction des normes européenne [CEN 05-2] et américaine [AIS 15] a permis de démontrer que l’utilisation de ces facteurs de réduction s’applique aussi aux aciers S500M et Grade 70.

description: Novel N-aroyl-α,β-unsaturated piperidones, series 1, series 2 and series 3 (featuring 2-bromo-4,5-dimethoxybenzylidene, 4-dimethylaminobenzylidene and 4-trifluoromethylbenzylidene, respectively), were synthesized as candidate cytotoxins. Most of the compounds displayed potent cytotoxicity against the human neoplastic cell lines SK-BR-3, PG-BE1, NCI-H460, MIA PaCa-2 and SW1990 in vitro, and approximately 64% of the IC50 values were lower than 5 μM. Among those tested, compound 1b of series 1, 3a, 3d and 3e of series 3 proved to be the most active. Importantly, 1b displayed marked inhibitory effects on tumor growth in vivo and had no apparent toxicity to mice; this was evaluated by a nude mouse PG-BE1 xenograft model. In addition, the fluorescent properties of compounds series 1–3 were investigated. The interesting fluorescence exhibited by these compounds could be useful for their visualization in tumor cells, permitting further studies on these α,β-unsaturated piperidones as candidates for novel fluorescent antitumor agents.

description: We present the analytic evaluation of the two-loop corrections to the amplitude for the scattering of four fermions in Quantum Electrodynamics, $f^- + f^+ + F^- + F^+ \to 0$, with $f$ and $F$ representing a massless and a massive lepton, respectively. Dimensional regularization is employed to evaluate the loop integrals. Ultraviolet divergences are removed by renormalizing the coupling constant in the ${\overline{\text{MS}}}$-scheme, and the lepton mass as well as the external fields in the on-shell scheme. The analytic result for the renormalized amplitude is expressed as Laurent series around $d=4$ space-time dimensions, and contains Generalized Polylogarithms with up to weight four. The structure of the residual infrared divergences of the virtual amplitude is in agreement with the prediction of the Soft Collinear Effective Theory. Our analytic results are an essential ingredient for the computation of the scattering cross section for massive fermion-pair production in massless fermion-pair annihilation, i.e. $f^- f^+ \to F^- F^+$, and crossing related processes such as the elastic scattering $f F \to f F$, with up to Next-to-Next to Leading Order accuracy.
