Dance

description: Examining a group of pictures painted in the early-to-mid 1630s, this dissertation sets out to demonstrate that Nicolas Poussin’s turn to the subject of dance helped him transform his style from the sensuous Venetian manner of his early years to the cool, crisp, relief-like approach that would characterize his mature work and form the basis for French Classicism in subsequent decades. Painting dancers allowed Poussin to work through the problem of arresting motion, to explore the affective potential of the body represented, and to discover a measured, geometric compositional method capable of containing and harnessing that potential. The resulting pictures, painted in Rome, were warmly received in Paris by a group of early collectors that included dancers, patrons, amateurs, and theorists of another modern French art: the ballet de cour. Ballet’s cultivation of a fiercely controlled physicality, its wild Dionysian characters and learned Apollonian conceits, above all, its insistence on a hidden geometric order underlying the chaos of embodied experience primed early French observers of Poussin’s dancing pictures to recognize something of themselves in his new approach. Though Poussin did not set out to define French Classicism, and though his brief service as premier peintre to Louis XIII demonstrates how ill-suited he was to the role of official artist, the fact that his dancing pictures shared so much—on the level of patronage, iconography, even, perhaps, theoretical underpinnings—with the ballet de cour may help explain why these works (and, indeed, Poussin himself) were so eagerly appropriated by France in the Classical Age.
Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid with reservoirs in a multi-terminal geometry

description: We propose a formalism which uses boundary conditions imposed on the Luttinger liquid (LL) to describe the transport properties of a LL coupled to reservoirs. The various boundary conditions completely determine linear transport in the joint system reservoirs+LL. As an illustration we consider an exactly solvable microscopic model in a multi-terminal geometry for which such boundary conditions can be explicitly derived; in this model the Landauer-Büttiker formalism fails: if it were valid, the relation between the conductance matrix elements and the reflection and transmission coefficients could yield negative probabilities. We then apply our formalism to a discussion of shot noise through an impurity in a LL connected to two reservoirs.

Remarks
Smith & Lawrence (1967) “tentatively” assigned this genus to the tribe Metacyclini. However, we find very little similarity with other metacylines. We here transfer the genus to the section Diabroticites (Luperini: Diabroticina), new taxonomic placement. This genus contains a single described species, M. subglabrata, which occurs in Panama (Fig. 72).

description: We define a notion of finite type invariants for links with a fixed linking matrix. We show that Milnor's triple link homotopy invariant is a finite type invariant, of type 1, in this sense. We also generalize the approach to Milnor's higher order homotopy invariants and show that they are also, in a sense, of finite type. Finally, we compare our approach to another approach for defining finite type invariants within linking classes.

description: We present an exact solution to the problem of the relativistic motion of 2 point masses in $(1+1)$ dimensional dilaton gravity. The motion of the bodies is governed entirely by their mutual gravitational influence, and the spacetime metric is likewise fully determined by their stress-energy. A Newtonian limit exists, and there is a static gravitational potential. Our solution gives the exact Hamiltonian to infinite order in the gravitational coupling constant.

description: We present exact inhomogeneous and anisotropic cosmological solutions of low-energy string theory containing dilaton and axion fields. The spacetime metric possesses cylindrical symmetry. The solutions describe ever-expanding universes with an initial curvature singularity and contain known homogeneous solutions as subcases. The asymptotic form of the solution near the initial singularity has a spatially-varying Kasner-like form. The inhomogeneous axion and dilaton fields are found to evolve quasi-homogeneously on scales larger than the particle horizon. When the inhomogeneities enter the horizon they oscillate as non-linear waves and the inhomogeneities attentuate. When the inhomogeneities are small they behave like small perturbations of homogeneous universes. The manifestation of duality and the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions are investigated.

description: Developing a detailed understanding for the role of core electron excitation in liquid water under proton irradiation has become important due to the growing use of proton beams in radiation oncology. Using a first-principles, non-equilibrium simulation approach based on real-time time-dependent density functional theory, we determine the electronic stopping power, the velocity-dependent energy transfer rate from irradiating ions to electrons. The electronic stopping power curve agrees quantitatively over the entire velocity range for which experimental data is available. Also notably, we observe significant differences between our first-principles results and commonly-used perturbation theoretic models. Excitations of the water molecules' oxygen core electrons are a crucial factor in determining the electronic stopping power curve beyond its maximum. The core electron contribution is responsible for as much as one-third of the stopping power at the high proton velocity of 8.0 a.u. (1.6 MeV). These K-shell core electron excitations not only provide an additional channel for the energy transfer but they also significantly influence the valence electron excitation. In the excitation process, generated holes remain highly localized within a few angstroms around the irradiating proton path whereas electrons are excited away from the path. In spite of its great contribution to the electronic stopping power, the K-shell electrons play a rather minor role in terms of the excitation density: Only one percent of the hole population comprises K-shell holes, even at the high proton velocity of 8.0 a.u.. The excitation behavior revealed here is distinctly different from that of X/gamma-ray photon radiation, which is the most commonly used type of ionizing radiation in radiation oncology.

description: We investigate the convergence properties of optimized perturbation theory, or linear $δ$ expansion (LDE), within the context of finite temperature phase transitions. Our results prove the reliability of these methods, recently employed in the determination of the critical temperature T_c for a system of weakly interacting homogeneous dilute Bose gas. We carry out the explicit LDE optimized calculations and also the infrared analysis of the relevant quantities involved in the determination of $T_c$ in the large-N limit, when the relevant effective static action describing the system is extended to O(N) symmetry. Then, using an efficient resummation method, we show how the LDE can exactly reproduce the known large-N result for $T_c$ already at the first non-trivial order. Next, we consider the finite N=2 case where, using similar resummation techniques, we improve the analytical results for the nonperturbative terms involved in the expression for the critical temperature allowing comparison with recent Monte Carlo estimates of them. To illustrate the method we have considered a simple geometric series showing how the procedure as a whole works consistently in a general case.

description: We establish a new Howe duality between a pair of two queer Lie superalgebras (q(m),q(n)). This gives a representation theoretic interpretation of a well-known combinatorial identity for Schur Q-functions. We further establish the equivalence between this new Howe duality and the Schur-Sergeev duality between q(n) and a central extension $\Hy_k$ of the hyperoctahedral group H_k. We show that the zero-weight space of a q(n)-module with highest weight $λ$ given by a strict partition of n is an irreducible module over the finite group $\Hy_n$ parameterized by $λ$. We also discuss some consequences of this Howe duality.

description: This qualitative case study explored the development and exercise of voice at City Workshop, an anarchist-inspired alternative school for middle and high school students. Drawing from the dialogic tradition, I defined student voice as the complex and varied ways students express understanding, make themselves heard, and exercise agency over their educational experiences. In this study, I sought to move beyond traditional approaches to student voice that frame its meaning in instrumental terms and focus instead on its ontological and political dimensions. Through individual and focus group interviews, participant observations, document analysis, and a grounded theory approach to data analysis, I examined how students at City Workshop exercise their voices and how the educational practices of the school empower student voice. This study’s findings revealed the scope and power of student voice extended far beyond its practical effects. As demonstrated through the study, student voice was embodied in things students said, things they did not say, patterns of listening and dialogue, and even the environment itself. Relatedly, I learned student voice is empowered through dialogic governance and relational pedagogy, practices that invite students to play more meaningful roles as both individuals, learners, and community members. I also found City Workshop empowered voice by encouraging students to engage with issues of equity, power, and justice across a wide variety of settings and contexts, while dismantling barriers that restrict participation and engagement. Finally, the significance of this study lies in the attention it draws to the viability of experimental, dialogic approaches to schooling rooted in anarchist-inspired traditions and committed to broader educational transformation.

description: It is argued that when the dimension of space is a constant integer the full set of Einstein's field equations has more information than the spatial components of Einstein's equation plus the energy conservation law. Applying the former approach to the decrumpling FRW cosmology recently proposed, it is shown that the spacetime singularity cannot be avoided and that turning points are absent. This result is in contrast to the decrumpling nonsingular spacetime model with turning points previously obtained using the latter approach.

Processes and functions : a new approach for mine reclamation
Creators: name: Polster, D. F.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Natural processes and ecological functions have been restoring natural disturbances since the advent of terrestrial vegetation over 450 million years ago. Understanding how these processes operate can allow these recovery forces to be harnessed for the reclamation of mining disturbances. Identification of the filters or constraints that are preventing recovery is the first step in defining an effective restoration program. Compaction, erosion and steep slopes are three of the most common filters at large mines. Once these are addressed, selection of revegetation species can be undertaken. Determining the species that are naturally establishing around the edges of the mine will narrow the list. Pioneering species such as willows, poplars and alder are common pioneering species throughout British Columbia. These species initiate recovery processes and functions in disturbed areas. In addition to filters and species, identification of the structures that may have been lost in the mining process will help to re-establish the functions that may be related to this lost structure. Large woody debris (old logs) in piles or individually either standing or lying on the ground, can help to restore nutrient cycling functions as well as enhance wildlife diversity. Rock piles can be used to create structure, enhancing diversity on otherwise flat areas (e.g. tailings ponds). Making surfaces rough and loose, modeled on trees turning up root wads in the forest, creates instant topographic heterogeneity while addressing issues of compaction and erosion. Application of natural processes and the re-establishment of recovery functions can reduce the cost of reclamation while re-integrating the site to the natural systems that have served to maintain vegetation on the earth for millennia, creating sustainable mining.

description: We explore methods for the identification of stellar flare events in irregularly sampled data of ground-based time domain surveys. In particular, we describe a new technique for identifying flaring stars, which we have implemented in a publicly available Python module called "PyVAN". The approach uses the Differential Evolution algorithm to optimize parameters of empirically derived light-curve templates for different types of stars to fit a candidate light-curve. The difference of the likelihoods that these best-fit templates produced the observed data is then used to delineate targets that are well explained by a flare template but simultaneously poorly explained by templates of common contaminants. By testing on light-curves of known identity and morphology, we show that our technique is capable of recovering flaring status in $69\%$ of all light-curves containing a flare event above thresholds drawn to include $\lt1\%$ of any contaminant population. By applying to Palomar Transient Factory data, we show consistency with prior samples of flaring stars, and identify a small selection of candidate flaring G-type stars for possible follow-up.

description: We introduce an electro-optic hardware platform for nonlinear activation functions in optical neural networks. The optical-to-optical nonlinearity operates by converting a small portion of the input optical signal into an analog electric signal, which is used to intensity-modulate the original optical signal with no reduction in processing speed. Our scheme allows for complete nonlinear on-off contrast in transmission at relatively low optical power thresholds and eliminates the requirement of having additional optical sources between each layer of the network. Moreover, the activation function is reconfigurable via electrical bias, allowing it to be programmed or trained to synthesize a variety of nonlinear responses. Using numerical simulations, we demonstrate that this activation function significantly improves the expressiveness of optical neural networks, allowing them to perform well on two benchmark machine learning tasks: learning a multi-input exclusive-OR (XOR) logic function and classification of images of handwritten numbers from the MNIST dataset. The addition of the nonlinear activation function improves test accuracy on the MNIST task from 85% to 94%.

description: The Mines Act (1969) and the Health, Safety and Reclamation Code for Mines in BC (Code) governs standards for all types of mine reclamation in BC. The Code specifies a number of reclamation requirements, including; soil salvage, re-contouring of disturbed surfaces, erosion control, reestablishment of land capability and productive capacity, ecological risk assessment, and monitoring programs to document success. Regulators are often questioned about the changes in interpretation of the Code requirements (i.e. “moving goalposts”). As in most natural sciences, there are no hard and fast rules in reclamation. Each mine and reclamation plan is as unique as its geographic location (i.e. playing field). This means that the rules of the game (i.e. intent of the code) must be interpreted by the referees (i.e. inspectors) according to site and mine design specifics. As the game (i.e. knowledge of the reclamation process) evolves, so do the rules. The Ministry of Energy and Mine’s (MEM) current interpretation of the rules (i.e. reclamation guidelines) is aimed at ecological restoration. Our approach is informed by site conditions and allows proponents to develop their own game-plan, with guidance from MEM. Baseline ecological assessments and objectives for restoring the land to its pre-mining capability (i.e. the rules) enable proponents to place their project on an ecological restoration track for success. Proponents will be tasked with defining monitoring programs and measures for determining revegetation success (i.e. the team decides where the goalposts are placed). The referees oversee the game for fairness and determine when the goal line is crossed. This move toward a team effort in reclamation holds promise of greater certainty for all parties and will hopefully make finding the goal line easier.

description: In this paper operator pencils $A(x,D,λ)$ are investigated which depend polynomially on the parameter $λ$ and act on a manifold with boundary. The operator A is assumed to satisfy the condition of N-ellipticity with parameter which is an ellipticity condition formulated with the use of the Newton polygon. We consider general boundary operators $B_1(x,D),...,B_m(x,D)$ and define N-ellipticity for the boundary value problem $(A,B_1,...,B_m)$ analogously to the Shapiro-Lopatinskii condition. It is shown that the boundary value problem is N-elliptic if and only if an a priori estimate holds, where the norms in the estimate are again defined in terms of the Newton polygon. These results are closely connected with singular perturbation theory and lead to uniform estimates for problems of Vishik-Lyusternik type containing a small parameter.

description: Dipolar interactions are crucial in the modeling of many complex magnetic systems, such as the pyrochlores and artificial spin systems. Remarkably, many classical dipolar coupled spin systems exhibit a continuous ground-state degeneracy, which is unexpected as the Hamiltonian does not possess a continuous symmetry. In this paper, we explain, how such a finite point-symmetry leads to a continuous ground-state degeneracy of specific classical dipolar-coupled systems. This work, therefore, provides new insight into the theory of classical dipolar-coupled spin-systems and opens the way to understand more complex dipolar coupled systems.

description: My dissertation tells the history of the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), the U.S. electric utility industry’s collective technology organization, founded at the onset of the successive “Energy Crises” of the 1970s. The narrative tells a history of EPRI in three registers: the organization, the people, and the ideas. It tracks the internal politics of the industry’s research and development arm through each of its five sectors—nuclear generation, fossil fuel generation, environment and safety, end use, and transmission and distribution. Each sector was buffeted by EPRI’s management history, what one EPRI career project manager dubbed, “Peace, a Civil War, and the Great Depression.” Embedded in each of these sector histories is story of the incremental shift from one regulatory regime, a “natural monopoly,” to an as-of-yet unrealized regime, the “self-regulated network.” When deregulation was imminent in the mid-1990s, utility executives decided that collaboration and competition were at odds. EPRI funding plummeted by half. Instead of making it to the aspired destination at the “self-regulated electricity network,” American power got stuck in an impasse I call, with irony, the “networked grid.” The “networked grid” is a rigid grid with information and communication technology laid on top so as to achieve the illusion of economic efficiency at the cost of reliability, security, sustainability, and physical efficiency.

description: The purpose of this study is the derivation of the equation of motion for particles and light in the spacetime of Reissner-Nordström-(anti-)de Sitter black holes in the background of different kinds of regular and exotic matter fields. The complete analytical solutions of the geodesic equations are given in terms of the elliptic Weierstraß $\wp$-function and the hyperelliptic Kleinian $σ$-function. Finally after analyzing the geodesic motion of test particles and light using parametric diagrams and effective potentials, we present a list of all possible orbits.

description: In order to understand the physical effect of the brick wall boundary condition, we compute the distribution of the zero-point energy of the massless scalar fields minimally coupled to the Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordström black hole backgrounds. We find that the black hole radiation spectrum depends on the positions of the brick wall and the observer, and reveals the interference effect due to the reflected field by the brick wall.

description: We present lattice QCD results for the wave function normalization constants and the first moments of the distribution amplitudes for the lowest-lying baryon octet. The analysis is based on a large number of $N_f=2+1$ ensembles comprising multiple trajectories in the quark mass plane including physical pion (and kaon) masses, large volumes, and, most importantly, five different lattice spacings down to $a=0.039\,\mathrm{fm}$. This allows us to perform a controlled extrapolation to the continuum and infinite volume limits by a simultaneous fit to all available data. We demonstrate that the formerly observed violation of flavor symmetry breaking constraints can, indeed, be attributed to discretization effects that vanish in the continuum limit.
Non-Extreme Black Holes from Intersecting M-Branes

description: We investigate the possibility of extending non-extreme black hole solutions made of intersecting M-branes to those with two non-extreme deformation parameters, similar to Reissner-Nordstrøm solutions. General analysis of possible solutions is carried out to reduce the problem of solving field equations to a simple algebraic one for static spherically-symmetric case in $D$ dimensions. The results are used to show that the extension to two-parameter solutions is possible for $D=4,5$ dimensions but not for higher dimensions, and that the area of horizon always vanishes in the extreme limit for black hole solutions for $D \geq 6$ except for two very special cases which are identified. Various solutions are also summarized.
