“Ain’t Nobody Like My Desi Girl”: An Analysis of New York City’s Indian-American Women as Model Minorities
Creators: Walia, Mallika P.

description: Indian immigrants have flourished in the United States, often outperforming both other immigrant groups and the native-born population. Consequently, they have come to be considered “model minorities” who are deemed too successful to truly be a minority. However, this framework paints Indian-Americans in an inaccurate light, especially obscuring the struggles of Indian-American women. This thesis sheds light on the compelling factors that impact these women’s lives on a day-to-day basis and shows that these factors significantly shape their perception of their hyphenated identities, a truly difficult struggle that is not adequately captured by the model minority paradigm. Indian- American women battle internal pressure applied by their families and communities to eschew American values and instead adhere to their ethnic identities while simultaneously bearing the brunt of external pressure, such as racism and stereotypes, that cast their Indian roots in a negative light, especially post-9/11. Thus, these women must constantly negotiate the tension between their two seemingly incompatible worlds. Today, these women look to each other and to organizations that foster Indian-American female solidarity to ameliorate some of this tension. Such spaces provide these women emotional support as well as a community that works together to address some of the most systemic issues that plague Indian-American women. These women have also begun reimagining their roles in America’s racial fabric and have started actively engaging with race as people of color. Thus, despite the numerous challenges they face and their misrepresentation by the model minority paradigm, there remains cause for optimism for the future of Indian-American women in New York City.

description: The project team was tasked with collecting post-implementation date of new smoke and vape-free areas on University of Columbia’s Vancouver campus. The objective of the project team’s work was to identify areas of non-compliance and find ways to assess public support and awareness of the non-smoking and vaping policies. The study consisted of field observations and a literature review. Field observations took note of smokers, cigarette butt accumulations, and the location of no-smoking signage. Observations took place on weekdays and weekend, with overcast and clear conditions. The literature review of the policies and initiatives at other universities and hospitals. The project team was able to determine times and conditions when more smokers were active in the study area, hot spot areas of non-compliance, and the location of signage in relation to these observations. This report concludes with a series of recommendations for next steps: ● Undertake a draft survey for further field research regarding on-campus support and awareness of the policies (draft provided); ● Increasing awareness through place-making methods, additional signage, and information campaigns; ● Avoiding conflicting messages by removing enabling structures and ashtrays; and ● Managing non-compliance through fines and policy enforcement, as well as designated smoking areas.

description: Results are presented of a two-pion interferometry (HBT) analysis in Pb+Au collisions at 40, 80, and 158 AGeV. A detailed study of the Bertsch-Pratt HBT radius parameters has been performed as function of the mean pair transverse momentum $k_t$ and in bins of the centrality of the collision. From these results we extract model dependent information about the space-time evolution of the reaction. An investigation of the effective volume of the pion emitting system provides an important tool to study the properties of thermal pion freeze-out.

description: Strong-weak duality invariance can only be defined for particular sectors of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories. Nevertheless, for full non-Abelian non-supersymmetric theories, dual theories with inverted couplings, have been found. We show that an analogous procedure allows to find the dual action to the gauge theory of gravity constructed by the MacDowell-Mansouri model plus the superposition of a $Θ$ term.

“All My Songs Are In The Past” Older Women Look Back on Romantic Love: Nostalgia, Imagination, and Idealization
Creators: Taylor, Lauren
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Women's studies
Love
Nostalgia
Oral history

description: When I first conceptualized this thesis, it was narrower in scope. I had originally planned to focus only on older women’s nostalgia for early romantic love -­ a topic that grew out of a recurrent theme in both my clinical work with older women and in my work as an oral historian. It is a theme that is at the core of my own story as well. But as I began interviewing and analyzing the women’s narratives, I realized that this nostalgia was not a singular phenomenon but was, rather, deeply rooted in the women’s internalization of received messages about what it means to be female -­ messages transmitted on both the familial and societal level. Many of the women lived, often out of necessity, what might from the outside look to be feminist lives; yet almost none would describe themselves as feminists. This phenomenon piqued my curiosity, and I began addressing it in the interviews. Additionally, as I explored the literature on nostalgia, I understood its complexity within the framework of imagination and idealization.

Origin of band gaps in 3d perovskite oxides

description: With their broad range of magnetic, electronic and structural properties, transition metal perovskite oxides ABO3 have long served as a platform for testing condensed matter theories. In particular, their insulating character - found in most compounds - is often ascribed to dynamical electronic correlations through the celebrated Mott-Hubbard mechanism where gaping arises from a uniform, symmetry-preserving electron repulsion mechanism. However, structural distortions are ubiquitous in perovskites and their relevance with respect to dynamical correlations in producing this rich array of properties remains an open question. Here, we address the origin of band gap opening in the whole family of 3d perovskite oxides. We show that a single-determinant mean-field approach such as density functional theory (DFT) successfully describes the structural, magnetic and electronic properties of the whole series, at low and high temperatures. We find that insulation occurs via energy-lowering crystal symmetry reduction (octahedral rotations, Jahn-Teller and bond disproportionation effects), as well as intrinsic electronic instabilities, all lifting orbital degeneracies. Our work therefore suggests that whereas ABO3 oxides may be complicated, they are not necessarily strongly correlated. It also opens the way towards systematic investigations of doping and defect physics in perovskites, essential for the full realization of oxide-based electronics.
A general model of focal adhesion orientation dynamics in response to static and cyclic stretch

description: Understanding cellular response to mechanical forces is immensely important for a plethora of biological processes. Focal adhesions are multi-molecular protein assemblies that connect the cell to the extracellular matrix and play a pivotal role in cell mechanosensing. Under time varying stretches, focal adhesions dynamically reorganize and reorient and as a result, regulate the response of cells in tissues. Here, I present a simple theoretical model based on, to my knowledge, a novel approach in the understanding of stretch sensitive bond association and dissociation processes together with the elasticity of the cell-substrate system to predict the growth, stability and the orientation of focal adhesions in the presence of static as well as cyclically varying stretches. The model agrees well with several experimental observations; most importantly, it explains the puzzling observations of parallel orientation of focal adhesions under static stretch and nearly perpendicular orientation in response to fast varying cyclic stretch.

description: This thesis explores the relationship between race and cognitive disability in police brutality cases. For the first time in academia, it systematically investigates cases where police officers have used excessive force against individuals with cognitive disabilities, using of The Guardian newspaper’s database on police killing and independently conducted research. It draws on the literature on the role of mental illness in police brutality cases, as well as historical literature on race and cognitive disability to inform conclusions on the criminalisation of people of colour with cognitive disabilities; ultimately showing how a historically entrenched and mutually reinforcing racist and ableist system has criminalised mentally disabled people of colour, making them more likely to be perceived as dangerous by police.

History

description: This dissertation analyzes the impact of mid-nineteenth century liberal reforms in Bogotá’s urbanization process. It focuses particularly in the disentailment of corporate and common property decreed in 1861 by President Tomas Cipriano de Mosquera. Through disentailement the government attempted to resolve the fiscal crisis that had affected Colombia during the nineteenth century and also to stimulate the economy by putting a considerable mass of real estate in the market. However, disentailment was also, and more than anything, a legal reform that transformed the existent property regime as well as prevalent social relations around property. Until the middle of the nineteenth century, most of Bogotá’s inhabitants lived and worked on municipal and church properties under ambiguous possessory and usufruct agreements that were protected by colonial law and custom. Disentailment not only ended corporate privileges, but abolished the plurality of forms of transfer and landholding that had prevailed during the centuries of colonial domination, to replace them with a system of private property. Paying particular attention to the daily negotiations between urban tenants, the merchant class and the state, this dissertation examines the difficult and incomplete transition from colonial forms of property possession and conveyance to a system of private property, and from colonial legal pluralism to the legal monism that characterized mid-century liberalism. In analyzing how accepted legal and costmary practices slowly proscribed by state action, this dissertation reveals also the relationship between the process of state formation, Colombia’s integration into the world market, and the roots of urban extralegality.
Dynamic Stabilization in The Double-Well Duffing Oscillator

description: Bifurcations associated with stability of the saddle fixed point of the Poincaré map, arising from the unstable equilibrium point of the potential, are investigated in a forced Duffing oscillator with a double-well potential. One interesting behavior is the dynamic stabilization of the saddle fixed point. When the driving amplitude is increased through a threshold value, the saddle fixed point becomes stabilized via a pitchfork bifurcation. We note that this dynamic stabilization is similar to that of the inverted pendulum with a vertically oscillating suspension point. After the dynamic stabilization, the double-well Duffing oscillator behaves as the single-well Duffing oscillator, because the effect of the central potential barrier on the dynamics of the system becomes negligible.

description: We present ratios of the numbers of charged antiparticles to particles (pions, kaons and protons) in Au + Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV as a function of rapidity in the range $y$=0-3. While the particle ratios at midrapidity are approaching unity, the $K^-/K^+$ and $\bar{p}/p$ ratios decrease significantly at forward rapidities. An interpretation of the results within the statistical model indicates a reduction of the baryon chemical potential from $μ_B \approx 130$MeV at $y$=3 to $μ_B \approx 25$MeV at $y$=0.

description: This thesis uses a combination of theoretical frameworks and qualitative interviews to understand the question: How do women of color therapists perform, experience, and negotiate emotional labor inside and outside of work? Theoretical frameworks include sociologist Arlie Hochschild’s literature on emotional labor, feminist economist Nancy Folbre’s work surrounding the care work industry, as well as the work of other researchers who focus on intersections between emotional labor and race. It is of note that there is little to no literature exploring the intersections between emotional labor, race, and mental health professions including therapy. The aim of this thesis is to begin to fill this gap by interviewing women of color therapists and gaining insight into how they engage with emotional labor. The results of the interviews show many common themes among the interviewees, including similar experiences with expectations to perform emotional labor due to their identities as women of color and as therapists, feelings of exhaustion/burnout, experiences with regulating emotions during therapy sessions, and experiences with setting and maintaining boundaries both inside and outside of the therapeutic space. Viewing the interview results of this thesis in conjunction with prevailing literature surrounding emotional labor, we come to understand that women of color therapists perform and experience a unique form of emotional labor that is marked by their relationships with identity as well as their maintenance of boundaries.

description: Advanced gravitational wave detectors use suspended test masses to form optical resonant cavities for enhancing the detector sensitivity. These cavities store hundreds of kilowatts of coherent light and even higher optical power for future detectors. With such high optical power, the radiation pressure effect inside the cavity creates sufficiently strong coupling between test masses whose dynamics are significantly altered. The dynamics of two independent nearly free masses become a coupled mechanical resonator system. The transfer function of the local control system used for controlling the test masses is modified by the radiation pressure effect. The changes in the transfer function of the local control systems can result in a new type of angular instability which occurs at only 1.3 \% of the Sidles-Sigg instability threshold power. We report experimental results on a 74~m suspended cavity with a few kilowatts of circulating power, for which the power to mass ratio is comparable to the current Advanced LIGO. The radiation pressure effect on the test masses behaves like an additional optical feedback with respect to the local angular control, potentially making the mirror control system unstable. When the local angular control system is optimized for maximum stability margin, the instability threshold power increases from 4~kW to 29~kW. The system behavior is consistent with our simulation and the power dependent evolution of both the cavity soft and hard mode is observed. We show that this phenomenon is likely to significantly affect proposed gravitational wave detectors that require very high optical power.

description: We study stability of a circular orbit of a spinning test particle in a Kerr spacetime. We find that some of the circular orbits become unstable in the direction perpendicular to the equatorial plane, although the orbits are still stable in the radial direction. Then for the large spin case ($S < \sim O(1)), the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) appears before the minimum of the effective potential in the equatorial plane disappears. This changes the radius of ISCO and then the frequency of the last circular orbit.

description: We calculate the density of states of the 2+1 dimensional BTZ black hole in the micro- and grand-canonical ensembles. Our starting point is the relation between 2+1 dimensional quantum gravity and quantised Chern-Simons theory. In the micro-canonical ensemble, we find the Bekenstein--Hawking entropy by relating a Kac-Moody algebra of global gauge charges to a Virasoro algebra with a classical central charge via a twisted Sugawara construction. This construction is valid at all values of the black hole radius. At infinity it gives the asymptotic isometries of the black hole, and at the horizon it gives an explicit form for a set of deformations of the horizon whose algebra is the same Virasoro algebra. In the grand-canonical ensemble we define the partition function by using a surface term at infinity that is compatible with fixing the temperature and angular velocity of the black hole. We then compute the partition function directly in a boundary Wess-Zumino-Witten theory, and find that we obtain the correct result only after we include a source term at the horizon that induces a non-trivial spin-structure on the WZW partition function.

description: Heiden gehören zu den ältesten Kulturlandschaften NW-Europas und gelten unter
ökologischen wie sozio-ökonomischen Gesichtspunkten als besonders schutzwürdig.
Dennoch haben sich Heiden während der vergangenen Jahrzehnte deutlich verändert, vor
allem infolge von atmogenen Nährstoffeinträgen aus der Landwirtschaft oder dem
Straßenverkehr. In der vorliegenden Studie wurde untersucht, wie Feuermanagement und
andere Verfahren der Heidepflege zu einer gewissen Kompensation solcher Einträge und
damit zu einer Stabilisierung des Nährstoffhaushaltes von Heideökosystemen beitragen
können. Hierzu wurden die Stickstoff- und Phosphor-Vorräte in verschiedenen
Ökosystemkompartimenten sowie Ein- und Austräge durch Auswaschung (Leaching) und
Management-Maßnahmen (Feuer, Beweidung, Mahd, Plaggen) quantifiziert.
Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass im Gebiet der Lüneburger Heide nur Beweidung und Plaggen
gegenwärtig bestehende Stickstoff-Einträge kompensieren können. Feuermanagement hat den
Vorteil, die Phosphor-Vorräte von Heiden wenig zu beeinträchtigen, da durch die Deposition
von Asche im Zuge der Brandmaßnahme der in der Biomasse enthaltene Phosphor in die
Heideflächen zurückgeführt wird. Beweidung und Mahd führen demgegenüber zu hohen
Phosphor-Verlusten. Um in Heiden eine diverse Struktur sowie ausgeglichene
Nährstoffbilanzen langfristig zu erhalten, müssen intensive Management-Maßnahmen wie
Plaggen mit extensiven Maßnahmen wie Mahd und Brand kombiniert werden. Im Hinblick
auf eine ausgeglichene Phosphor-Bilanz hat sich das Heidebrennen als beste Maßnahme
erwiesen.

description: Without involving bounce events, a Poincaré section associated with the axes is found to give a map on the annulus for the diamagnetic Kepler problem. Symbolic dynamics is then established based on the lift of the annulus map. The correspondence between the coding derived from this axis Poincaré section is compared with the coding based on bounces. Symmetry is used to reduce the symbolic dynamics. By means of symbolic dynamics the admissibility of periodic orbits is analyzed, and the symmetry of orbits discussed.

description: Despite pervasive arguments for diversifying the teaching profession, as teachers of color have shown improved outcomes for children of color, immigrant and transnational teachers of color have largely been left out of possible solutions for diversifying the teaching workforce. In this context, I inquired into the experiences of immigrant and transnational teachers, seeking to (re)position them as part of the much-needed diversity in the teacher workforce in solidarity with U.S. teachers of color. Combining Critical Race Theory and Nepantla, I sought to learn from the experiences of six immigrant and transnational teachers of color as they negotiated, navigated, and reconciled differences across their home countries and the U.S. I conducted my study in New York City due to its high percentage of immigrants in schools, asking: How do immigrant and transnational teachers of color with prior early childhood teaching experience in their home contexts experience and negotiate the process of (re)learning what it means to teach in the U.S. through teacher education programs in New York City? I employed a qualitative research design, focusing on nuanced and complex individual experiences without generalizing or essentializing a whole population. I used Seidman’s (2013) three interview series of in-depth interviews to gain information about my participants and their experiences and situate my study within and between the realms of counter-stories and testimonios. Analytically, I engaged axial coding, built trans/scripts (compressed renderings of original transcript) that captured emotional qualities, and presented trans/scripts to participants. I asked them to identify important themes and name their own truths and stories. This methodology enhanced the meanings of the interviews by interpreting them through poetic counter-stories, and poetic testimonio with my participants. I synthesized and re-presented findings as co-constructed poetic counter-stories, offering insights into participants’ experiences regarding early childhood classrooms and teacher education programs as spaces of (be)longing, learning about race and racism, access to teacher certification requirements, expectations of being an early childhood educator, and seeing children’s strengths. Implications point toward the need to listen and learn from immigrant and transnational teachers of color in justly transforming early childhood teacher education practices, programs, and policy.

description: The inclusive energy distributions of fragments (3$\leq$Z$\leq$7) emitted in the reaction $^{16}$O + $^{27}$Al at $E_{lab} = $116 MeV have been measured in the angular range $θ_{lab} $= 15$^\circ$ - 115$^\circ$. A non-linear optimisation procedure using multiple Gaussian distribution functions has been proposed to extract the fusion-fission and deep inelastic components of the fragment emission from the experimental data. The angular distributions of the fragments, thus obtained, from the deep inelastic component are found to fall off faster than those from the fusion-fission component, indicating shorter life times of the emitting di-nuclear systems. The life times of the intermediate di-nuclear configurations have been estimated using a diffractive Regge-pole model. The life times thus extracted ($\sim 1 - 5\times 10^{-22}$ Sec.) are found to decrease with the increase in the fragment charge. Optimum Q-values are also found to increase with increasing charge transfer i.e. with the decrease in fragment charge.

description: Theoretical models of the strong nuclear interaction contain unknown coupling constants (parameters) that must be determined using a pool of calibration data. In cases where the models are complex, leading to time consuming calculations, it is particularly challenging to systematically search the corresponding parameter domain for the best fit to the data. In this paper, we explore the prospect of applying Bayesian optimization to constrain the coupling constants in chiral effective field theory descriptions of the nuclear interaction. We find that Bayesian optimization performs rather well with low-dimensional parameter domains and foresee that it can be particularly useful for optimization of a smaller set of coupling constants. A specific example could be the determination of leading three-nucleon forces using data from finite nuclei or three-nucleon scattering experiments.

description: We argue that from the point of view of gauge theory and of an appropriate interpretation of the interferometer experiments with matter waves in a gravitational field, the Einstein-Cartan theory is the best theory of gravity available. Alternative viable theories are general relativity and a certain teleparallelism model. Objections of Ohanian and Ruffini against the Einstein-Cartan theory are discussed. Subsequently we list the papers which were read at the `Alternative 4D Session' and try to order them, at least partially, in the light of the structures discussed.

description: Der Siegeszug des künstlichen Lichtes, der ursprünglich mit Öl und Gas befeuert wurde, hat mit dem
elektrischen Licht im letzten Jahrhundert einen Durchbruch erreicht, der weltweit die Lebens- und
Arbeitsweise der Menschen einschneidend verändert hat. Seither sind Zeiten der Aktivität des
Menschen und Arbeitszeit nicht mehr an das Vorhandensein von Tageslicht gekoppelt. Nachdem in
letzter Zeit die energieeffizientere Erzeugung von künstlichem Licht im Vordergrund stand, kommt
heute - im Jahr des Lichts und der lichtbasierten Technologien 2015 – der Qualität des Lichtes eine
stetig wachsende Bedeutung zu. Dieser Beitrag beleuchtet die Eigenschaften der neuartigen
Lichtquellen und die dafür erforderlichen Methoden und Maßnahmen zu ihrer Charakterisierung und
zu ihrem optimalen Einsatz. Er zeigt darüber hinaus, wie mit den neuen Lichtquellen in
unterschiedlichsten Lebensbereichen die Sicherheit, Umweltfreundlichkeit und Lebensqualität
wesentlich erhöht werden kann.

“Autistic women have always been here”:  Autistic Women Story Their Schooling Experiences

description: Autism has been constructed as a White male category. Currently, the prevalence ratio is 4 males to every 1 female diagnosed with autism. Historically, research studies supported these gender diagnostic gaps by claiming a genetic or hormonal causation. However, more recent research suggests that the gap in diagnosis is the cause of diagnostic bias, and instead, autism looks very different in women and girls compared to boys. Because autism is assumed to be a male category, autism intervention supports in schools do not reflect the needs of autistic girls. Missing from autism research are the narratives, perspectives, and expertise of autistic people and their care networks. The majority of autism research today comes from the psychological and epidemiology fields and examines causation and the biological factors of autism. Autism is constructed as a problem to be “solved” and the autistic person as someone to be “cured.” The majority of autism research is about autistic people rather than with autistic people. This research is framed by an intersectional Disability Studies (DS) theoretical stance that forefronts the experiences of disabled people and understands disability to be an essential aspect of a person’s identity, rather than a problem to be solved. Working narratively through multimodal data collection, this study privileges the sense making of three autistic women and honors their forms of expression and communication. The study also includes the perspectives of the participants’ mothers as essential aspects of their care networks. Through their stories, the expertise of autistic women is honored as essential to all conversations regarding schooling interventions for autistic youth. By exclusively focusing on women, I challenge the myth of autism as a male category and challenge a positivist autism research approach that ignores gender altogether.

Comparing Neural- and N-Gram-Based Language Models for Word Segmentation

description: Word segmentation is the task of inserting or deleting word boundary characters in order to separate character sequences that correspond to words in some language. In this article we propose an approach based on a beam search algorithm and a language model working at the byte/character level, the latter component implemented either as an n-gram model or a recurrent neural network. The resulting system analyzes the text input with no word boundaries one token at a time, which can be a character or a byte, and uses the information gathered by the language model to determine if a boundary must be placed in the current position or not. Our aim is to use this system in a preprocessing step for a microtext normalization system. This means that it needs to effectively cope with the data sparsity present on this kind of texts. We also strove to surpass the performance of two readily available word segmentation systems: The well-known and accessible Word Breaker by Microsoft, and the Python module WordSegment by Grant Jenks. The results show that we have met our objectives, and we hope to continue to improve both the precision and the efficiency of our system in the future.

description: Let T and S be two bounded linear operators from Banach spaces X into Y and suppose that T is Fredholm and the stability number k(T;S) is 0. Let d(T;S) be the supremum of all r > 0 such that dim N(T-λS) and codim R(T-λS) are constant for all λwith |λ| < r. It was proved in 1980 by H. Bart and D.C. Lay that d(T;S) = \lim_{n\to\infty}γ_{n}(T;S)^{1/n}, where γ_{n}(T;S) are some non-negative (extended) real numbers. For X=Y and S = I, the identity operator, we have γ_{n}(T;S) = γ(T^n), where γis the reduced minimum modulus. A different representation of the stability radius is obtained here in terms of the spectral radii of generalized inverses of T. The existence of generalized resolvents for Fredholm linear pencils is also considered.
