Faltering in the Fight: 'Pierre' and 'Hamlet'
Creators: name: Greven, David
Publisher: name: Memoria di Shakespeare. A Journal of Shakespearean Studies
Year: 2021

description: Melville’s 1852 novel Pierre; or, The Ambiguities foregrounds its intertextual link to Shakespeare’s Hamlet. This essay focuses on several subjects: incest, framed as an all-encompassing allegory for the problems within and posed by the family; sexual ambivalence, which both the tragedy and the novel thematize in the hero’s horror at the thought of adult genitality; and an episode that links Hamlet to Pierre and combines concerns with authorship and dismemberment, the reference to the myth of the amputated Giant Enceladus. Pierre is notable for being the most sustained depiction of female sexuality in Melville’s work. The titular hero’s possible half-sister Isabel can be considered a version of Shakespeare’s Ophelia, just as the character of Mary Glendinning, Pierre’s mother, revises Hamlet’s mother Gertrude. Melville’s transformation of Shakespeare’s female portraits is fascinatingly problematic. He uses the precursor text to imagine forms of subversive female power but also reifies images of the woman as, respectively, narcissistic and siren-like, a doom to men. At the same time, Melville reimagines Milton’s Eve, specifically the moment where she ponders her own reflection in a pool. The novel’s most resistant element is its Hamlet-like depiction of masculinity as “faltering in the fight” compromised and embattled. Melville’s Shakespearean and ekphrastic uses of the Enceladus myth allow him to develop an allegorical register for his mutually illuminating explorations of the failure of the artist and the failure of American masculinity.

description: It is well known that the state operator of an open quantum system can be generically represented as the solution of a time-local equation -- a quantum master equation. Unraveling in quantum trajectories offers a picture of open system dynamics dual to solving master equations. In the unraveling picture, physical indicators are computed as Monte-Carlo averages over a stochastic process valued in the Hilbert space of the system. This approach is particularly adapted to simulate systems in large Hilbert spaces. We show that the dynamics of an open quantum system generically admits an unraveling in the Hilbert space of the system described by a Markov process generated by ordinary stochastic differential equations for which rigorous concentration estimates are available. The unraveling can be equivalently formulated in terms of norm-preserving state vectors or in terms of linear ``ostensible" processes trace preserving only on average. We illustrate the results in the case of a two level system in a simple boson environment. Next, we derive the state-of-the-art form of the Diosi-Gisin-Strunz Gaussian random ostensible state equation in the context of a model problem. This equation provides an exact unraveling of open systems in Gaussian environments. We compare and contrast the two unravelings and their potential for applications to quantum error mitigation.

description: Noether's theorem links the symmetries of a quantum system with its conserved quantities, and is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics. Here we prove a version of Noether's theorem for Markov processes. In quantum mechanics, an observable commutes with the Hamiltonian if and only if its expected value remains constant in time for every state. For Markov processes that no longer holds, but an observable commutes with the Hamiltonian if and only if both its expected value and standard deviation are constant in time for every state.

description: Urban time series data forecasting featuring significant contributions to sustainable development is widely studied as an essential task of the smart city. However, with the dramatic and rapid changes in the world environment, the assumption that data obey Independent Identically Distribution is undermined by the subsequent changes in data distribution, known as concept drift, leading to weak replicability and transferability of the model over unseen data. To address the issue, previous approaches typically retrain the model, forcing it to fit the most recent observed data. However, retraining is problematic in that it leads to model lag, consumption of resources, and model re-invalidation, causing the drift problem to be not well solved in realistic scenarios. In this study, we propose a new urban time series prediction model for the concept drift problem, which encodes the drift by considering the periodicity in the data and makes on-the-fly adjustments to the model based on the drift using a meta-dynamic network. Experiments on real-world datasets show that our design significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods and can be well generalized to existing prediction backbones by reducing their sensitivity to distribution changes.

Emerson’s Shakespeare and the Myth of Discovery; or, Appropriating Shakespeare for America

Publisher: name: Memoria di Shakespeare. A Journal of Shakespearean Studies

description: Taking its cue from a contribution of mine to a past issue of this journal (Persona Pratica e Persona Poetica, Memoria di Shakespeare 2, On Biography, ed. Rosy Colombo and Gary Taylor, 2015, pp. 1-23), this article takes a step further, tracing Emerson’s complex relationship with Shakespeare, mainly through his two essays The Poet (1844) and Shakspeare; or, the Poet (1850). The act of reading is here dramatized: hence the structure in four ‘acts’ of a composition arranged as an imaginary two-voiced fugue. Quotations from Emerson’s essays (in italics) are contrapuntually interwoven with my own reflections on texts whose freshness and directness of approach are astounding. Emerson has not developed his theme by singling out any play or character in particular: his Shakspeare looks naturally American, before any of the plays exists. His words have fallen out of heaven directly on American soil, and are staring at America’s “incomparable materials”: waiting, “like the enchanted princess in fairy tales”, for the “destined human deliverer” who will be doing justice to them. In what looks like a new act of ‘discovery’, Emerson does, for American letters, what the early settlers of his own time were doing for the American continent.

description: We report the measurement of rest-frame UV size and morphology of H$α$-emission-selected star-forming galaxies (HAEs) in four protoclusters at z $\sim$ 2 (PKS 1138-262, USS 1558-003, PHz G237.0+42.5, and CC 2.2) using archival Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera Surveys (HST/ACS) F814W data. We compare the measurement of 122 HAEs in protoclusters detected by HST/ACS to a coeval comparison field sample of 436 HAEs. We find the size distributions of protocluster and field HAEs are similar with typical half-light radius of $\sim$ 2.5 kpc. At fixed stellar mass, there is no significant difference between HAE in protocluster and in field, which is also supported by stacking analyses. This result suggests that the environment does not significantly affect the size of galaxies during the star-forming phase at this epoch. Based on Sérsic index and non-parametric morphologies, HAE morphologies in both environments at $z\sim2$ in rest-frame UV are consistent with disk-like star-forming galaxies, although we also find $29\% \pm 4\%$ HAEs have peculiar or disturbed morphologies. The fraction of disturbed galaxies is higher in protocluster environment, with $39 \pm 8 \%$ protocluster HAEs showing disturbed morphologies, compared to $26\pm4\%$ in the comparison field. The apparent disturbed morphologies are correlated with higher star-formation activity and may be caused by either in situ giant clumps or mergers.

description: In the framework of the Keldysh technique, we formulate the nonlinear sigma model for disordered optical media with linear absorption or gain. The effective action for fluctuations of the matrix field about the saddle point acquires an extra term due to the nonconservative nature of the system. We determine the disorder-averaged Green-function correlator, which has a diffusion pole modified by a finite absorption/gain rate. The diffusion coefficient is found to be close to its value for conservative systems in the relevant range of parameters. In the medium with gain, the random-lasing threshold depends on the sample size.

description: Canonical methods can be used to construct effective actions from deformed covariance algebras, as implied by quantum-geometry corrections of loop quantum gravity. To this end, classical constructions are extended systematically to effective constraints of canonical quantum gravity and applied to model systems as well as general metrics, with the following conclusions: (i) Dispersion relations of matter and gravitational waves are deformed in related ways, ensuring a consistent realization of causality. (ii) Inverse-triad corrections modify the classical action in a way clearly distinguishable from curvature effects. In particular, these corrections can be significantly larger than often expected for standard quantum-gravity phenomena. (iii) Finally, holonomy corrections in high-curvature regimes do not signal the evolution from collapse to expansion in a "bounce," but rather the emergence of the universe from Euclidean space at high density. This new version of signature-change cosmology suggests a natural way of posing initial conditions, and a solution to the entropy problem.

Helical and nonhelical large-scale dynamos in thin accretion discs

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: The dynamics of accreting and outgoing flows around compact objects depends crucially on the strengths and configurations of the magnetic fields therein, especially of the large-scale fields that remain coherent beyond turbulence scales. Possible origins of these large-scale magnetic fields include flux advection and disc dynamo actions. However, most numerical simulations have to adopt an initially strong large-scale field rather than allow them to be self-consistently advected or amplified, due to limited computational resources. The situation can be partially cured by using sub-grid models where dynamo actions only reachable at high resolutions are mimicked by artificial terms in low-resolution simulations. In this work, we couple thin-disc models with local shearing-box simulation results to facilitate more realistic sub-grid dynamo implementations. For helical dynamos, detailed spatial profiles of dynamo drivers inferred from local simulations are used, and the nonlinear quenching and saturation is constrained by magnetic helicity evolution. In the inner disc region, saturated fields have dipole configurations and the plasma $β$ reaches $\simeq 0.1$ to $100$, with correlation lengths $\simeq h$ in the vertical direction and $\simeq 10h$ in the radial direction, where $h$ is the disc scale height. The dynamo cycle period is $\simeq 40$ orbital time scale, compatible with previous global simulations. Additionally, we explore two dynamo mechanisms which do not require a net kinetic helicity and have only been studied in shearing-box setups. We show that such dynamos are possible in thin accretion discs, but produce field configurations that are incompatible with previous results. We discuss implications for future general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics simulations.

description: Linguistic communication requires speakers to mutually agree on the meanings of words, but how does such a system first get off the ground? One solution is to rely on iconic gestures: visual signs whose form directly resembles or otherwise cues their meaning without any previously established correspondence. However, it is debated whether vocalizations could have played a similar role. We report the first extensive cross-cultural study investigating whether people from diverse linguistic backgrounds can understand novel vocalizations for a range of meanings. In two comprehension experiments, we tested whether vocalizations produced by English speakers could be understood by listeners from 28 languages from 12 language families. Listeners from each language were more accurate than chance at guessing the intended referent of the vocalizations for each of the meanings tested. Our findings challenge the often-cited idea that vocalizations have limited potential for iconic representation, demonstrating that in the absence of words people can use vocalizations to communicate a variety of meanings.
Gravitating anisotropic merons and squashed spheres in the three-dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory

description: We construct the first analytic examples of self-gravitating anisotropic merons in the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory in three dimensions. The gauge field configurations have different meronic parameters along the three Maurer-Cartan $1$-forms and they are topologically nontrivial as the Chern-Simons invariant is nonzero. The corresponding backreacted metric is conformally a squashed three-sphere. The amount of squashing is related to the degree of anisotropy of the gauge field configurations that we compute explicitly in different limits of the squashing parameter. Moreover, the spectrum of the Dirac operator on this background is obtained explicitly for spin-1/2 spinors in the fundamental representation of $SU(2)$, and the genuine non-Abelian contributions to the spectrum are identified. The physical consequences of these results are discussed.

description: We present the results of a simple but robust morphological classification of a statis- tically complete sample of 108 of the most X-ray luminous clusters at 0.15 < z < 0.7 observed with Chandra. Our aims are to (a) identify the most disturbed massive clusters to be used as gravitational lenses for studies of the distant universe and as probes of particle acceleration mechanisms resulting in non-thermal radio emission, (b) find cluster mergers featuring subcluster trajectories that make them suitable for quantitative analyses of cluster collisions, and (c) constrain the evolution with redshift of the cluster merger fraction. Finally, (d) this paper represents the third public release of clusters from the MACS sample, adding 24 clusters to the 46 published previously. To classify clusters by degree of relaxation, we use the projected offset of the brightest cluster galaxy from the peak (or the global centroid) of the X-ray emission as a measure of the segregation between the intracluster gas and dark matter. Regarding (a), we identify ten complex systems likely to have undergone multiple merger events in the recent past. Regarding (b), we identify eleven systems likely to be post-collision, binary, head-on mergers (BHOMs), as well as another six mergers that are possible BHOMs but probably harder to interpret because of non-negligible impact parameters and merger axes closer to our line of sight. Regarding (c), we find a highly significant increase with redshift in the fraction of morphologically disturbed clusters starting at z \sim 0.4, in spite of a detection bias in our sample against very disturbed systems at high redshift. A larger sample of clusters with high-quality X-ray data in particular at high redshift will be needed to trace the evolutionary history of cluster growth and relaxation closer to the primary epoch of cluster formation z \sim 1.

description: We consider an $n$-dimensional spherically symmetric, asymptotically Euclidean manifold with two ends and a codimension 1 trapped set which is degenerately hyperbolic. By separating variables and constructing a semiclassical parametrix for a time scale polynomially beyond Ehrenfest time, we show that solutions to the linear Schrödiner equation with initial conditions localized on a spherical harmonic satisfy Strichartz estimates with a loss depending only on the dimension $n$ and independent of the degeneracy. The Strichartz estimates are sharp up to an arbitrary $β>0$ loss. This is in contrast to \cite{ChWu-lsm}, where it is shown that solutions satisfy a sharp local smoothing estimate with loss depending only on the degeneracy of the trapped set, independent of the dimension.

Using this property, we construct $n\ge 2$ curves crossing an annulus such that, when any $n-1$ curves are given, the last curve is a chordal SLE$(κ)$ trace.

I show first, by using a thermodynamic approach, the conditions needed to pump electrons around the mechanical device in the Coulomb blockade regime. I then use a density matrix approach to describe the dynamics of the single-charge transport including many-body effects. The theory shows that it is possible to have single-electron tunneling (SET) oscillations at low temperatures by satisfying conditions similar to the Coulomb blockade systems.

description: Proper interpretation of past, current, and future data on lepton-nucleus reactions requires a clear separation between quantum electrodynamics (QED) and strong interaction effects inside the nucleus. First studies of QED in-medium lepton dynamics have set a theoretical framework to derive electron-nucleus and (anti)neutrino-nucleus cross-section corrections. We employ this approach to quantitatively compute the effects of Glauber photon-mediated multiple re-scattering within the nuclear medium. We find that the relativistic charged lepton acquires momentum of order $10~\mathrm{MeV}$ transverse to its direction of propagation inside the nucleus. This broadening sizably deflects expected electron tracks and suppresses scattering cross sections. Precise extraction of the nucleon and nuclear structure by electron and muon probes should, thus, take the QED nuclear medium angular redistribution of particles into account. Our results further show that the associated effects in (anti)neutrino-nucleus scattering with measured final-lepton energy are significant only at the kinematical endpoints.

We calculate the absolute excitation functions, energy and momentum distributions for the non-resonant, resonant and for the combined (non-resonant plus resonant) production of $Υ(1S)$ mesons on protons, on carbon and tungsten target nuclei at near-threshold incident photon beam energies by assuming the spin-parity assignments of the hypothetical hidden-bottom resonances $P^{+,0}_{b}(11080)$, $P^{+,0}_{b}(11125)$ and $P^{+,0}_{b}(11130)$ as $J^P=(1/2)^-$, $J^P=(1/2)^-$ and $J^P=(3/2)^-$ within four different realistic choices for the branching ratios of their decays to the $Υ(1S)p$ and $Υ(1S)n$ modes (0.125, 0.25, 0.5 and 1\%) as well as for two options for the background contribution. We demonstrate that the measurements of these combined observables on proton and nuclear targets in the near-threshold energy region in future experiments at the planned high-luminosity electron-ion colliders EIC and EicC in the US and China should provide evidence for the existence of the above hidden-bottom pentaquark resonances as well as clarify their decay rates.

PRESCRIPCIÓN Y DAÑO EN LAS RECLAMACIONES DE DAÑOS POR CONDUCTAS ANTICOMPETITIVAS: LUCES Y SOMBRAS DE LA SENTENCIA DEL TRIBUNAL DE JUSTICIA UE DE 22/6/22 (C-267/20 DAF TRUCKS NV & AB VOLVO/RM)

description: Las dudas sobre el régimen transitorio de las normas nacionales adoptadas en transposición de la Directiva de daños enturbian la puesta en práctica de las reglas adoptadas para favorecer y armonizar la regulación de las acciones de daños por infracciones antitrust en la UE. La sentencia de 22/6/22 es el decimosexto pronunciamiento del Tribunal de Justicia de la UE sobre la aplicación privada de las prohibiciones de los artículos 101 y 102 TFUE. En ella se ilustran con claridad las dos ideas-fuerza de la jurisprudencia del TJUE en la materia, que subraya la necesidad de que la interpretación de las normas tenga en cuenta dificultades informativas que afrontan los perjudicados por los ilícitos antitrust, que se materializan en la complejidad fáctica, jurídica y económica del Derecho de la competencia y en la asimetría informativa de los perjudicados. El Tribunal ha repetido en múltiples ocasiones que el derecho de las víctimas a una compensación exige que la regulación nacional aplicable “no haga imposible en la práctica o excesivamente difícil” obtener dicha reparación. A pesar de lo anterior, el pronunciamiento del TJUE sobre el derecho inter-temporal de la Directiva de daños no es clara, ni resuelve todas las dudas. En su labor de integrar su conciso régimen transitorio, el Tribunal ha establecido nuevas reglas. En primer lugar, de la sentencia resulta que, aunque tanto la prescripción como la presunción de daño en caso de cárteles se consideran disposiciones sustantivas, no todas las disposiciones sustantivas de la Directiva tienen el mismo régimen transitorio. En segundo lugar, aparentemente, el régimen de prescripción previsto en la Directiva sería de aplicación las acciones que no estuvieran prescritas al vencimiento de su plazo de transposición. Ello permitiría extender el plazo de las acciones que estuvieran subsistentes al tiempo de la nueva normativa. Finalmente, el Tribunal también se pronuncia sobre la potestad judicial de estimación del daño, que se considera una disposición procesal directamente aplicable por los tribunales a los procesos en tramitación a la fecha de entrada en vigor de la normativa de transposición, pero sigue habiendo dudas sobre cuál sea el umbral probatorio mínimo que deba realizar el demandante y su interrelación con la potestad judicial de estimar el daño y acerca de cuáles sean los criterios a seguir por los tribunales para el cálculo del daño indemnizable.

description: We study the lightest CP-even Higgs boson mass in five kinds of testable flipped SU(5) x U(1)_X models from F-theory. Two kinds of models have vector-like particles around the TeV scale, while the other three kinds also have the vector-like particles at the intermediate scale that can be considered as messenger fields in gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking. We require that the Yukawa couplings for the TeV-scale vector-like particles and the third family of the Standard Model (SM) fermions are smaller than three from the electroweak scale to the SU(3)_C x SU(2)_L unification scale. With the two-loop renormalization group equation running for the gauge couplings and Yukawa couplings, we obtain the maximal Yukawa couplings between the TeV-scale vector-like particles and Higgs fields. To calculate the lightest CP-even Higgs boson mass upper bounds, we employ the renormalization group improved effective Higgs potential approach, and consider the two-loop leading contributions in the supersymmetric SM and one-loop contributions from the TeV-scale vector-like particles. We assume maximal mixings between the stops and between the TeV-scale vector-like scalars. The numerical results for these five kinds of models are roughly the same. In particular, we show that the lightest CP-even Higgs boson can have mass up to 146 GeV naturally, which is the current upper bound from the CMS and ATLAS collaborations.

Physically-based modeling for improved flood prediction in the Elbow River watershed
Creators: name: Xiang, Zhong
Publisher: name: University of Calgary
Year: 2004

description: Bibliography: p. 161-164
description: This research focuses on comparing flood forecasting by a lumped model and a physically-based distributed model in southern Alberta. It also includes urbanization impacts on the hydrology, and climate change impacts on hydrology of this area. The lumped model is called Streamflow Synthesis and Reservoir Regulation (SSARR), and the distributed model is PRMS. The SSARR model was developed by USACE, and the PRMS model was developed by USGS. The Elbow River Watershed was chosen as the study area. Five years of data were selected for calibration and verification. The simulation periods are long-term periods from April 1 to August 31 and short-term events with focus on peak flows for 5 days before and after the event. Time step is 3 hourly increments in the SSARR model, and 1 hour for PRMS. The calibrated SSARR model was accepted by Alberta Environment, and will be operated in Elbow river basins this year. The calibrated model is suitable for the Upper basin, the Lower basin and the Whole basin, and for wet, medium and dry years. The calibrated PRMS model was just suitable for the Upper basin because of poor river routing from the upper basin to the lower basin, and for just wet and medium years. By comparing these two models, the SSARR model is better flood forecasting for the Elbow River Watershed. The impact of urbanization on the hydrology of the Elbow River Watershed was simulated by the PRMS model. The peak flows and volumes increase with an increase in impervious area, but the changes of flows and volumes are very small. Times to peak in different years are not affected. As a result, the impact of urbanization in Elbow River Watershed is not big enough on the quantity of hydrology. The impact of climate change on the hydrology of the Elbow River Watershed was simulated by the PRMS and SSARR. The simulated results indicated that the climate change would lead to the significant changes of flows and volumes, and time to peak. By comparing these two models, different results result from different routing. The impact of logging on the hydrology of the Elbow River Watershed was simulated by the PRMS. Clear cutting would give rise to the increase of flows and volumes, and earlier time to peak. Floodplain in the lower reach of the Elbow River was delineated in HEC-RAS and HEC-GeoRAS. The cross-section, water surface profile, rating curve, and x-y-z perspective plots were produced.

description: The dynamics of complex systems often involve thermally activated barrier crossing events that allow these systems to move from one basin of attraction on the high dimensional energy surface to another. Such events are ubiquitous, but challenging to simulate using conventional simulation tools, such as molecular dynamics. Recently, Weinan E et al. [Nonlinearity, 24(6),1831(2011)] proposed a set of dynamic equations, the gentlest ascent dynamics (GAD), to describe the escape of a system from a basin of attraction and proved that solutions of GAD converge to index-1 saddle points of the underlying energy. In this paper, we extend GAD to enable finite temperature simulations in which the system hops between different saddle points on the energy surface. An effective strategy to use GAD to sample an ensemble of low barrier saddle points located in the vicinity of a locally stable configuration on the high dimensional energy surface is proposed. The utility of the method is demonstrated by studying the low barrier saddle points associated with point defect activity on a surface. This is done for two representative systems, namely, (a) a surface vacancy and ad-atom pair and (b) a heptamer island on the (111) surface of copper.

Dipolar broadening of nuclear spin resonance under dynamical pumping

description: We study the polarisation dependence of the homogeneously broadened nuclear spin resonance in a crystal. We employ a combinatorial method to restrict the nuclear states to a fixed polarisation and show that the centre of the resonance is shifted linearly with the nuclear polarisation by up to the zero polarisation line width. The width shrinks from its maximum value at zero polarisation to zero at full polarisation. This suggests to use the line shape as a direct measure of nuclear polarisation reached under dynamical pumping. In the limit of single quantum of excitation above the fully ferromagnetic state, we provide an explicit solution to the problem of nuclear spin dynamics which links a bound on the fastest decay rate to the observable width of the resonance line.

description: We report the discovery of 16 detached M-dwarf eclipsing binaries with J<16 mag and provide a detailed characterisation of three of them, using high-precision infrared light curves from the WFCAM Transit Survey (WTS). Such systems provide the most accurate and model-independent method for measuring the fundamental parameters of these poorly understood yet numerous stars, which currently lack sufficient observations to precisely calibrate stellar evolution models. We fully solve for the masses and radii of three of the systems, finding orbital periods in the range 1.5

description: We investigate the inhomogeneous Galton--Watson processes with immigration, where $ρ_n$ the offspring means in the $n^\textrm{th}$ generation tends to 1. We show that if the second derivatives of the offspring generating functions go to 0 rapidly enough, then the asymptotics are the same as in the INAR(1) case, treated by Györfi et al. We also determine the limit if this assumption does not hold showing the optimality of the conditions.
