Abstract:
AbstractWe study extensions L/K of complete discrete valuation fields K with residue field of characteristic p > 0, which we do not assume to be perfect. Our work concerns ramification theory for such extensions, in particular we show that all classical properties which are true under the hypothesis “the residue field extensionis separable” are still valid under the more general hypothesis that the valuation ring extension is monogenic. We also show that conversely, if classical ramification properties hold true for an extension L/K, then the extension of valuation rings is monogenic. These are the “well ramified” extensions. We show that there are only three possible types of well ramified extensions and we give examples. In the last part of the paper we consider, for the three types, Kato’s generalization of the conductor, which we show how to bound in certain cases.

Abstract:
Three studies examine the influence of brand-elicited affect on consumers' evaluations of brand extensions. When a brand spontaneously elicits affective reactions, consumers appear to form an initial impression of the brand's new extension based on these reactions. The affect that they experience for other reasons and attribute to the brand can influence this impression as well. Their later evaluations of the extension are then based on this impression. This is true regardless of the similarity between the extension and the core brand. These results contrast with evidence that affect influences brand extension evaluations through its mediating impact on perceptions of core-extension similarity. This latter influence occurs only when consumers are explicitly asked to estimate the extension's similarity to the core before they evaluate it.

Abstract:
Browser extensions are third-party applications that can customize the browsing experience. Previous studies have shown that browser extension fingerprinting can be used to track users and reveal users’ privacy information by obtaining the browser extension list. However, the proposal of various defense measures weakens the effectiveness of the existing extension fingerprinting technologies. In this paper, we first propose two extension fingerprinting technologies: JavaScript-based environmental fingerprinting and DOM-based behavioral fingerprinting. They, respectively, capture the operation behaviors of extensions on JavaScript properties and webpage’s DOM. Second, we design BEFP, an extension recognition system which comprehensively utilizes the above two technologies to improve the uniqueness of the extension fingerprint. Finally, we collect the latest data set and carry out experiments on the actual scenario where users install multiple extensions. The results show that the true positive rate of extension recognition is as high as 96.3%. And the extension’s detectable rate of BEFP is superior to the existing technologies. Moreover, it is proved that the JavaScript-based environmental fingerprinting can complement the DOM-based fingerprinting to distinguish the extensions with the same DOM modification.

Abstract:
It is well known that the Hahn-Banach theorem, that is, the extension theorem for bounded linear functionals, is not true in general for bounded linear operators. A characterization of spaces for which it is true was published by Kakutani in 1940. We summarize Kakutani's work and we give an example which demonstrates that his characterization is not valid for two-dimensional spaces.

Abstract:
It is found that Lorenz systems can be unidirectionally coupled such that the chaos expands from the drive system. This is true if the response system is not chaotic, but admits a global attractor, an equilibrium or a cycle. The extension of sensitivity and period-doubling cascade are theoretically proved, and the appearance of cyclic chaos as well as intermittency in interconnected Lorenz systems are demonstrated. A possible connection of our results with the global weather unpredictability is provided.

Abstract:
Given a continuous local martingale [Formula: see text], the associated stochastic exponential [Formula: see text] is a local martingale, but not necessarily a true martingale. To know whether [Formula: see text] is a true martingale is important for many applications, e.g., if Girsanov’s theorem is applied to perform a change of measure. We give several generalizations of Kazamaki’s results and finally construct a counterexample which does not satisfy the mixed Novikov–Kazamaki condition, but satisfies our conditions.

Abstract:
Extension rule is a new method for computing the number of models for SAT formulae. In this paper, we investigate the use of the extension rule in solving #QBF, i.e., computing the number of Q1x1…Qn xn which makes the Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF) Q1x1…Qn xnF evaluate to true. We present a #QBF algorithm based on the extension rule, namely QBFMC, which also integrates the unit propagation and the component analysis together. These excellent technologies improve the efficiency of solving #QBF problems efficiently.

Abstract:
The findings of prior research suggest that a brand's extendibility is constrained by the degree of perceived fit between the brand and extension product categories. However, there are many examples of brands that have been extended successfully into “perceptually distant” domains. Drawing on theories of consumer information processing and product adoption, the authors identify three background traits of prior work that may help explain the discrepancy between prior research and marketplace observation: (1) limited extension information, (2) failure to account for consumers' new product adoption tendencies (i.e., earlier versus later), and (3) single exposure to proposed extensions. In this study, the authors find that the effects of fit disappear when attribute information is added to extension stimuli and are applicable only for later product adopters. The authors also find that perceived fit increases with greater exposure to an extension. Beyond implications for brand extension research, this study underscores the need to recognize that certain research design factors related to external validity, which are often assumed irrelevant, can alter what is held to be true.

Abstract:
L’extension d’une procédure collective est une création jurisprudentielle consacrée par la loi de sauvegarde des entreprises du 26 juillet 2005. Elle a pour objectif de reconstituer artificiellement le patrimoine séparé du débiteur. Ainsi, elle va consister à étendre la procédure collective initiale à une ou plusieurs personnes physiques ou morales. L’extension de procédure collective revêt un avantage considérable pour le débiteur dans la mesure où elle va lui offrir plus de possibilités et de moyens lui permettant de résoudre au mieux ses difficultés. De même pour le créancier qui verra le patrimoine du débiteur réuni à celui d’une tierce personne. Son fondement juridique est l’article L. 621-2 du code de commerce. Il dispose que le tribunal doit caractériser l’existence d’une confusion de patrimoine ou la fictivité avant de prononcer un jugement d’extension de procédure collective. La jurisprudence contribue grandement à l’évolution législative de l’extension de procédure collective. En dépit de la codification de cette procédure, la jurisprudence y occupe une place omniprésente. Ce rôle s’explique par le fait que le législateur laisse au juge le pouvoir d’interpréter et d’apprécier l’extension de procédure collective, sur la base de ses deux causes qui sont respectivement la confusion de patrimoine et la fictivité. Quel est donc le pouvoir d’appréciation laissé au juge ? Il s’agit de l’interprétation dont dispose ce dernier concernant l’existence de la fictivité ou de la confusion de patrimoine. Ainsi donc, pour prononcer une extension de procédure collective sur la base de la confusion de patrimoine, le juge doit nécessairement caractériser l’existence de relations financières anormales ou l’imbrication inextricable des patrimoines, à savoir celui du débiteur principal et celui ou ceux des personnes à qui il voudrait étendre la procédure collective.L’appréciation du caractère fictif de la personne morale est le cas le moins fréquent mais reste le plus complexe à déterminer. Les juges ont la lourde responsabilité de déceler la fictivité d’une personne morale et se heurtent la plupart du temps aux divers montages financiers établis dans les groupes de sociétés.Le juge n’a pas à chercher si la confusion de patrimoine entre deux personnes physiques ou morales a causé un préjudice au débiteur principal pour étendre sa procédure collective. Cet encadrement législatif laisse apparaître que les juges sont libres de prononcer l’extension de procédure collective en prenant en compte le fait qu’un contrôle rigoureux de leur décision est réalisé par la Cour de cassation. En outre, au regard des intérêts divergents du débiteur et du créancier, mais aussi en raison de l’impact des décisions d’extension de procédure collective sur la vie économique de ces deux catégorie de personnes, les décisions prononçant l’extension de procédure collective font l’objet d’un contrôle rigoureux de la part de la Cour de Cassation.Toutefois si cette procédure recèle bien des avantages, il n’en demeure pas moins, qu’au regard de sa pratique, certaines réformes pourraient permettre de l’améliorer
The extension of a collective procedure is a jurisprudential creation enshrined in the law on the protection of companies of 26 July 2005. Its objective is to artificially reconstitute the debtor's prepared assets. Thus, it will consist in extending the initial collective procedure to one or more natural or legal persons. The extension of collective proceedings is of considerable benefit to the debtor insofar as it will offer him more possibilities and means to solve his difficulties as well as possible. The same applies to the creditor who will see the debtor's assets combined with those of a third party.Its legal basis is Article L. 621-2 of the French Commercial Code. It provides that the court must characterize the existence of a Confusion of patrimony or fictitious nature before pronouncing a judgment extending collective proceedings. Case law contributes significantly to the legislative evolution of the extension of collective proceedings. Despite the codification of this procedure, case law is omnipresent. This role is explained by the fact that the legislator gives the judge the power to interpret and assess the extension of collective proceedings, on the basis of its two causes, namely confusion of assets and fictitious acts. What is the discretion left to the judge? This is the latter's interpretation of the existence of fictitious or confusing assets. Thus, therefore, in order to pronounce an extension of collective proceedings on the basis of the Confusion of Assets, the judge must necessarily characterise the existence of abnormal financial relations or the inextricable interweaving of assets, namely that of the principal debtor and that of the person or persons to whom he would like to extend the collective proceedings.The assessment of the fictitious nature of the legal person is the least frequent case but remains the most complex to determine. Judges have a heavy responsibility to detect the fictitious nature of a legal person and most often encounter the various financial arrangements established within corporate groups.The need not to look for whether the confusion of assets between two natural or legal persons has caused prejudice to the principal debtor in order to extend his collective proceedings. This legislative framework shows that judges are free to extend collective proceedings, taking into account the fact that their decision is rigorously reviewed by the Court of Cassation. In addition, in view of the divergent interests of the debtor and the creditor, but also because of the impact of decisions to extend collective proceedings on the economic life of these two categories of persons, decisions ordering the extension of collective proceedings are subject to rigorous control by the Court of Cassation.However, while there are many advantages to this procedure, the fact remains that, in terms of its practice, some reforms could improve it

CAPES
Esta tese de doutorado almejou explorar, tanto teórica quanto metodologicamente, um fenômeno da comunicação contemporânea: os processos de transmidiação de seriados ficcionais no contexto da criação e do consumo no mercado televisivo estadunidense. Chamamos de processos de transmidiação as estratégias e práticas criativas que fazem um conteúdo monomidiático, o seriado televisivo no nosso estudo de caso, percorrer diversas mídias e plataformas comunicacionais. Trata-se da criação de artefatos que se vinculam a um texto de referência, fazendo-o migrar de mídias enquanto simultaneamente alarga seu escopo de significações. O nosso objetivo central foi o de analisar o que chamamos de universo transmídia de True Blood: os textos, paratextos e extensões ficcionais, alocados em múltiplas mídias e plataformas, que se utilizam de diversos formatos e linguagens, e produzidos tanto pelas organizações empresariais quanto pelas organizações dos fãs. Estas peças, arguimos, compõem o complexo emaranhado comunicacional que se encontra em circulação cultural e que se refere a uma obra específica, o seriado True Blood. A análise buscou explorar as estratégias de criação de extensões a partir de suas relações com o texto principal, sendo dividida conforme as duas macro-categorias de extensões transmídia (as paratextuais e as ficcionais) e examinando organicamente as criações oriundas de ambas as instâncias produtivas. As extensões paratextuais foram analisadas conforme as categorias de: antecipação, recuperação, remixagem e contexto de produção. As extensões ficcionais foram analisadas a partir das estratégias de alargamento do mundo ficcional do texto principal, que são: continuação de histórias, construção de mundo, construção de personagens, backstories (histórias do passado), histórias alternativas, e, por fim, jogos. Ao fim, foi possível identificar as semelhanças e diferenças dos produtos oriundos das empresas e dos fãs, compreendendo as finalidades estratégicas que elas cumprem no ínterim do universo transmídia de True Blood.
This doctoral dissertation aimed to explore, both theoretically and methodologically, a phenomenon of contemporary communication: the transmedialisation processes around television fictions within the context of creation and consumption in the American television market. We refer to transmedialisation processes as the creative strategies and practices that make a single-media content – the television series in our case study – travel across various media and platforms. It refers to the creation of artifacts that link themselves to a reference text, making it migrate to another media while simultaneously broaden its scope of meanings. Our main goal was to analyze what we called the transmedia universe of True Blood: the texts, paratextos and fictional extensions, placed in multiple media and platforms, using various formats and languages, and being produced by both the media industry organizations and fans organizations. We argue that these pieces compose the complex communicational entanglement which is in broad cultural circulation and refers to an specific artwork, the television series True Blood. The analysis aimed to explore the creation strategies of transmedia extensions through their relations to the main text, divided by two major categories of extensions (paratextual and fictional) and examining organically the creations that came from both productive instances. The paratextual extensions are analyzed according the categories of: anticipation, recuperation, remixing, and production context. The fictional extensions are analyzed through their strategies of enlarging the storyworld of the main text, which are: continuation of stories, worldbuilding, characters construction, backstories, alternate stories, and games. By the end, it was possible to identify the similarities and differences of products originated from the industries and the fans, understanding the strategical purposes that they fulfill inside the transmedia universe of True Blood.

Abstract:
This study investigated the potential benefit of introducing Moringa oleifera (MO) and Leucaena leucocephala (LL) leaves as supplementary feed resource for indigenous goats feeding systems in southern Mozambique. The study started with a description of smallholder goat production systems in three resource-poor districts of Mozambique and subsequently investigated the variation and seasonal fluctuations of natural fodder quality in the Changalane district throughout a year period. Thereafter, the effect of tree forage supplementation on growth and reproductive performance of Landim goats were evaluated by simulating a typical feeding system used in the study area. In study one, a survey was conducted in three villages to collect data on indigenous goats and in smallholder husbandry practices in terms of feeding, health and reproduction management. Information from 45-smallholder goat keepers were recorded using a survey, which was complemented by interviews. Results showed that goats were raised under extensive systems, under free grazing. Tethering was a common management practice, with limited supplementation during the dry season. In general, during the dry season the natural pasture were scarcity and poor in quality and consequently does not sustained the energy and protein requirements of ruminants for maintenance and other functions. In study two, the eight key species that were consumed by the goats (namely Sclerocarya birrea, Spirostachys africana, Dichrostachys cinerea, Flueggea virosa, Acacia nigrescens, Acacia nilotica, Panicum maximum and Morus alba) were collected and analysed. Daily energy intake (4.27 ± 0.17 MJ/kg DM vs 3.71 ± 0.41 MJ/kg DM) and crude protein (CP) intake (92.83 ± 16.05 g DM/head/day vs. 59.38 ± 13.12 g DM/head/day) were higher in the rainy season than in the dry season. Daily intake of calcium and phosphorus did not show significant seasonal variations and were below the requirements levels for maintenance of a 20 kg bodyweight goat during the dry season and for the pregnant goat during both seasons. These results showed a need to supplement goats with energy, protein and phosphorus for maintenance, growth and reproduction during the dry season. In study three, the impact of supplementation with LL and MO on the growth and reproduction performance of indigenous goats were evaluated. Fifty-six goats were randomly divided into seven groups, with four castrated males and four females in each group. One group was used as the control group (animals grazing on natural veld without any supplementation), while first three groups were fed with LL and the other three groups with MO tree leaves, respectively. Compared to the control group, both treatments had a significant effect, irrespective of the level of supplementation in terms of overall body weight gain and the final body weight of the bucks. All female reproduction parameters measured for the supplemented groups were superior when compared to the control group. Findings of this study suggest the benefit of using LL and MO tree leaves as supplement for Mozambican goats to overcome the adverse effects of seasonal fluctuations in feed quality on their growth and reproductive performance.

Resumo: A curva PEV é uma importante ferramenta que define os rendimentos de diversos derivados de petróleo obtidos em função dos seus pontos de ebulição verdadeiros, fornecendo informações importantes para decisões referentes ao controle dos processos de refinarias e sobre a qualidade do petróleo produzido. A curva PEV está bem estabelecida para pontos de ebulição de até 565?C, através de métodos estabelecidos pela ASTM. O emprego de uma metodologia para a caracterização das frações pesadas de petróleo com pontos de ebulição acima de 565?C e o desenvolvimento de um procedimento para a extensão da curva PEV nessa faixa tem, portanto, um impacto decisivo no melhor aproveitamento do óleo cru nacional, já que estes têm uma quantidade expressiva de frações pesadas na sua composição. Para se ter um conjunto de dados da curva PEV mais abrangente para esses petróleos, foi estabelecida uma metodologia para a extensão da curva PEV através da destilação molecular. O objetivo geral deste trabalho foi determinar experimentalmente a extensão da curva PEV de frações pesadas de petróleos nacionais, utilizando o processo de destilação molecular. Desse modo, a extensão da curva PEV foi feita a partir da obtenção dos dados do destilador molecular para dois tipos de petróleos ainda não estudados pelo grupo do LDPS/UNICAMP e, através da correlação DESTMOL, as temperaturas de operação do destilador molecular foram convertidas para os pontos de ebulição verdadeiros correspondentes. Por meio desse processo, as correntes de produto obtidas foram quantificadas e avaliadas através de caracterizações físico-químicas. A metodologia através da destilação molecular atingiu valores de PEV próximos a 700?C, proporcionando, além disso, ganhos consideráveis de destilado, representando grandes avanços na área.
Abstract: The TBP curve is an important tool that defines the yield of petroleum products in function of its true boiling points, supplying important information for decisions of refinery process control and quality of the produced oil. The TBP curve is well established for true boiling points up to 565?C, through established methods for the American Society and Testing Materials (ASTM). The use of a methodology for the characterization of heavy petroleum fractions with true boiling points above 565?C and the development of a procedure for the extension of TBP curve in this range has, therefore, a decisive impact to the best improvement of national crude oil, since they have an expressive amount of heavy fractions in its composition. To improve this data set of TBP curve for heavy oils, a methodology for the extension of TBP curve was established through the molecular distillation. The general objective of this work was to determine experimentally the extension of TBP curve for national heavy petroleum fractions, using the molecular distillation process. In this manner, the extension of TBP curve was made from the data attainment of molecular distiller for two types of oils not still studied for the LDPS/UNICAMP group and, through the application of DESTMOL correlation, the operating temperatures of the molecular distiller was converted for the corresponding true boiling points. In this process, the product streams were quantified and evaluated through physical-chemical characterizations. The methodology using molecular distillation reached TBP values up to 700?C, providing, so, considerable gain of distilled, representing a notable advance in this area.

Abstract:
Les systèmes informatiques jouent un rôle essentiel dans la vie actuelle, et leurs erreurs peuvent avoir des conséquences dramatiques. Il existe des méthodes formelles permettant d'assurer qu'un système informatique est fiable. La méthode formelle utilisée dans cette thèse est appelée complétion d'automates d'arbres et permet d'analyser les systèmes à nombre d'états infini. Dans cette représentation, les états du système sont représentés par des termes et les ensembles d'états par des automates d'arbres. L'ensemble des comportements possibles d'un système est calculé grâce à l'application successive d'un système de réécriture modélisant le comportement du système vérifié. On garantit la fiabilité d'un système en vérifiant qu'un comportement interdit n'est pas présent dans l'ensemble des états accessibles. Mais cet ensemble n'est pas toujours calculable, et nous devons alors calculer une sur-approximation calculable de cet ensemble. Mais cette approximation peut s'avérer trop grossière et reconnaître de faux contre-exemples. La première contribution de cette thèse consiste alors à caractériser, par des formules logiques et de manière automatique, ce qu'est une "bonne" sur-approximation : une approximation représentant un sur-ensemble des configurations accessibles, et qui soit suffisamment précise pour ne pas reconnaître de faux contre-exemples. Résoudre ces formules conduit alors automatiquement à une sur-approximation concluante si elle existe, sans avoir recours à aucun paramétrage manuel. Le second problème de la complétion d'automates d'arbres est le passage à l'échelle, autrement dit le temps de calcul parfois élevé du calcul de complétion quand on s'attaque à des problèmes de la vie courante. Dans la vérification de programmes Java utilisant la complétion d'automates d'arbres, cette explosion peut être due à l'utilisation d'entiers de Peano. L'idée de notre seconde contribution est alors d'évaluer directement le résultat d'une opération arithmétique. D'une façon plus générale, il s'agit d'intégrer les éléments d'un domaine infini dans un automate d'arbres. En s'inspirant de méthodes issues de l'interprétation abstraite, cette thèse intègre des treillis abstraits dans les automates d'arbres, constituant alors un nouveau type d'automates. Les opérations sur le domaine infini représenté sont calculées en une seule étape d'évaluation plutôt que d'appliquer de nombreuses règles de réécriture. Nous avons alors adapté la complétion d'automates d'arbres à ce nouveau type d'automate, et la généricité du nouvel algorithme permet de brancher de nombreux treillis abstraits. Cette technique a été implémentée dans un outil appelé TimbukLTA, et cette implémentation permet de démontrer l'efficacité de cette technique.

Abstract:
L'objectif de cette thèse est d'étudier le problème de la modélisation des changements de régime dans les modèles à corrélations conditionnelles dynamiques en nous intéressant plus particulièrement à l'approche Markov-switching. A la différence de l'approche standard basée sur le modèle à chaîne de Markov caché (HMM) de base, nous utilisons des extensions du modèle HMM provenant des modèles graphiques probabilistes. Cette discipline a en effet proposé de nombreuses dérivations du modèle de base permettant de modéliser des structures complexes. Cette thèse se situe donc à l'interface de deux disciplines: l'économétrie financière et les modèles graphiques probabilistes. Le premier essai présente un modèle construit à partir d'une structure hiérarchique cachée markovienne qui permet de définir différents niveaux de granularité pour les régimes. Il peut être vu comme un cas particulier du modèle RSDC (Regime Switching for Dynamic Correlations). Basé sur le HMM hiérarchique, notre modèle permet de capter des nuances de régimes qui sont ignorées par l'approche Markov-Switching classique. La seconde contribution propose une version Markov-switching du modèle DCC construite à partir du modèle HMM factorisé. Alors que l'approche Markov-switching classique suppose que les tous les éléments de la matrice de corrélation suivent la même dynamique, notre modèle permet à tous les éléments de la matrice de corrélation d'avoir leur propre dynamique de saut. Dans la dernière contribution, nous proposons un modèle DCC construit à partir d'un arbre de décision. L'objectif de cet arbre est de relier le niveau des volatilités individuelles avec le niveau des corrélations. Pour cela, nous utilisons un arbre de décision Markovien caché, qui est une extension de HMM.

Abstract:
Le sujet traite la conception et la realisation d'un sgbd relationnel etendu aux images. Le systeme xcard developpe, est base sur le modele relationnel qui compose la majorite des sgbd actuels. Le modele relationnel est connu pour ses fondements mathematiques et son formalisme simple. Le langage de manipulation utilise est le qbe (query by examples) qui a ete etendu pour la manipulation des donnees images (qbeep). A la representation interne d'un bloc image on fait correspondre une relation. Cette idee simple de convertir les blocs images en une relation a constitue l'axe principal de ce travail. Cela a permis de conserver la meme organisation de stockage et d'acces pour les deux types de donnees (alphanumerique et image). Le prototype xcard est facile a utiliser, il permet a un non informaticien d'exploiter sa base de donnees sans connaissance au prealable. Le systeme permet les operations classiques (recherche, mise-a-jour, destruction. . . ) et des operations sur les images en 2d et 3d (affichage, intersection, suppression, zoom, mise-a-jour, rotation, difference. . . ). Xcard traite des requetes simples afin de determiner les caracteristiques d'une image et des requetes composees concernant deux images. Le sujet se situe dans les recherches actuelles (extension du modele relationnel, couplage avec un systeme expert, modele oriente objet. . . )

Abstract:
Aortic dissection resulting in lower extremity ischemia is an emergent condition requiring urgent endovascular treatment of the aorta and iliofemoral arteries to restore blood flow to the lower extremities. This chapter describes the management, applications, challenges, and potential complications when obtaining bilateral true lumen access during the urgent endovascular treatment of lower extremity ischemia after an aortic dissection. Most interventions require retrograde access to the true lumen; however, if one of the common femoral arteries is dissected, then retrograde access can be a challenge. Utilizing the contralateral true lumen, retrograde access can be confidently obtained through the true lumen of a dissected artery. This chapter illustrates the steps involved in successfully obtaining bilateral retrograde access to the common femoral arteries when these challenging cases arise.

Abstract:
In the author's opinion, Baxterian vision of work is not a modern one (if by modern we mean secularized or even just secularizing vision), what its 'history of effects' may have been. On the one hand, given the Calvinian liquidation of sacramental ontology (the Entzauberung hypothesized by Max Weber is above all a theological act), a true personal relationship to Christ is thematized in the Reformed faithful. For decades, specialist literature has been reminding us that the 'puritan' subject is not only in the cosmos. On the other hand, a peculiar extension of the evangelical command is defined, for which the service of God extends beyond "preaching, hearing, reading, praying" to the daily reality of the godly man, essentially a man at work. Avoiding idleness is a practical guarantee of Christian life.

Abstract:
AbstractA variety of intuitionistic versions of modal logic $$ K $$ have been proposed in the literature. An apparent misconception is that all these logics coincide on their $$\Box $$-only (or $$\Diamond $$-free) fragment, suggesting some robustness of ‘$$\Box $$-only intuitionistic modal logic’. However in this work we show that this is not true, by consideration of negative translations from classical modal logic: Fischer Servi’s $$ IK $$ proves strictly more $$\Diamond $$-free theorems than Fitch’s $$ CK $$, and indeed $$i K $$, the minimal $$\Box $$-normal intuitionistic modal logic.On the other hand we show that the smallest extension of $$i K $$ by a normal $$\Diamond $$ is in fact conservative over $$i K $$ (over $$\Diamond $$-free formulas). To this end, we develop a novel proof calculus based on nested sequents for intuitionistic propositional logic due to Fitting. Along the way we establish a number of new metalogical results.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter outlines doctrinal Buddhist political and economic theory including its notions about interstate relations, which are based on its unique understanding of the nature of reality. Some readers may be surprised to hear that there exists a theory of politics in Buddha’s teachings. But in fact, Buddha spoke extensively about politics, contrary to the assertion of Max Weber who famously asserted that Buddhism was “a specifically a-political and anti-political status religion.” Although the overriding goal of Buddha’s teachings is the liberation of individuals from pervasive suffering, Buddha considered politics as important, not so much for its intrinsic value, but because it created an external environment that can facilitate or impede an individual’s pursuit of happiness, defined as spiritual advancement and achievement of wisdom about the true nature of oneself and the world. Although best understood as an extension of his teachings on human liberation, Buddha was also an original social and a significant political philosopher. Buddha’s social teachings parallel modern democratic thought, mixed market economics, and cosmopolitan internationalism in the West. This chapter outlines Buddha’s political and economic theory, including his thoughts about statecraft and the possibilities for international order.

Abstract:
This chapter examines Edmond Jabès, who chose to write his oeuvre in French despite his Jewish-Arabic origins and his being conversant in both Hebrew and Arabic. French was never a true ‘mother tongue’ to him but rather ‘a foreign one’. This poetical choice was also instrumental to his creation of a cosmos that is very clearly defined by la page blanche, or the ‘blank page’. His writing develops this idea, both literally and metaphorically. A blank sheet is the only thing a writer has to work with at the start of every writing act, therefore it represents a kind of material opposition that all writers must overcome. It represents in this context an existential nothingness that precedes and simultaneously escapes both human and divine creation. In Jabès’s writings, a blank page has two connotations at once: a condition for writing and nothingness. This ambivalent condition results in the paradoxical assumption that his ‘mother tongue is a foreign language’, because it cannot offer the same spiritual intimacy as another language, say, the Holy Language, and because the writer’s ‘mother tongue’ — and, by extension, human language — is always impure and infiltrated by foreignness.

Abstract:
AbstractAttack trees are important for security, as they help to identify weaknesses and vulnerabilities in a system. Quantitative attack tree analysis supports a number security metrics, which formulate important KPIs such as the shortest, most likely and cheapest attacks.A key bottleneck in quantitative analysis is that the values are usually not known exactly, due to insufficient data and/or lack of knowledge. Fuzzy logic is a prominent framework to handle such uncertain values, with applications in numerous domains. While several studies proposed fuzzy approaches to attack tree analysis, none of them provided a firm definition of fuzzy metric values or generic algorithms for computation of fuzzy metrics.In this work, we define a generic formulation for fuzzy metric values that applies to most quantitative metrics. The resulting metric value is a fuzzy number obtained by following Zadeh’s extension principle, obtained when we equip the basis attack steps, i.e., the leaves of the attack trees, with fuzzy numbers. In addition, we prove a modular decomposition theorem that yields a bottom-up algorithm to efficiently calculate the top fuzzy metric value.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on dynamical systems, wherein the simplest nonlinear mathematical models could give rise to incredibly complex behaviour. It mentions scientists studying biological and physical processes of nature that were in the forefront of the revolution in mathematics for discovering dynamical systems. It also introduces some basic concepts of complexity theory: equilibria and stability, bifurcations, and chaos. The chapter begins with a brief snapshot of the birth of chaos theory, particularly theories of pattern formation and ecological implications. It cites the truncation error, which is another source of error in numerical methods that happens by approximating the true function by a Taylor series that is truncated after the first two or three terms.

Abstract:
In recent years, vectorial tolerancing has emerged as a new alternative of representing workpiece tolerances. In contrast with conventional geometric tolerances that originated from hard gauging practice, vectorial tolerancing follows the working principle of coordinate measuring machines and CAD/CAM systems. Moreover it provides feedback from measurement directly to manufacturing process control. Many believe it is a better tolerancing method to tie design, manufacturing, and measurement together. However, current proposal of vectorial tolerancing has several limitations. First, the current orientation vector is inadequate for representing true 3D orientation. As a result, the orientation of a free form surface can not be properly established. Second, there has not been much discussion on the subject of vectorial tolerance evaluation. This paper proposes a new orientation vector which provides a more general mathematical basis for representing vectorial tolerances. It enables true 3D orientation representation and relates tolerances to functional requirement. With the mathematical definition, a systematic evaluation approach becomes possible for both analytical geometric elements and free form surfaces. Computer simulation and real-world application were studied to validate this new approach.

Abstract:
Load transfer analysis has been proved to be an effective approach for designing light weight vehicle structures in last two decades. There are two main procedures for predicting the load path in a vehicle: The stress trajectory method and the U* index theory. The first approach has shown some shortcomings in dealing with geometrical irregularities. As a result, automotive industries have mainly applied the U* index as a design tool to study the load transfer behavior in the vehicle structure. The U* index, is an indicator for the load transfer in the structure, i.e. higher U* index value indicates more significant role in the load transfer process. So, the distribution of the U* index in the structure can be used to predict the main load path in the structure. Nevertheless, this foundation of this theory is based upon the linear elasticity equations and consequently, it has always been limited to linear elastic problems in static or quasi static conditions. Eradicating this limitation and extending the U* Index theory to nonlinear elastic problems is the main objective of this study. An extension to nonlinear criteria for U* index theory is proposed in this paper. It is shown, for the very first time, that the extended nonlinear load transfer index (U*NL) is a true measure for the load transfer in the structure in a nonlinear elastic problem.

Abstract:
Studies of muscle moment arms have classically followed a method of superposition whereby the measurement or derivation of moment arm magnitudes at any given joint assume independence of the position of joints proximal to the joint under study. This is particularly important for muscles crossing multiple joints. However, because of the nature of the soft tissue anatomy that defines the paths of the intrinsic muscles of the hand inserting into the extensor hood (also known as the dorsal expansion), this assumption may not be true for the intrinsic muscle moment arms at the Proximal Interphalangeal (PIP) Joint. These are muscles that insert into the “hood” of the dorsal expansion at the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint of the fingers acting as flexors at the MCP joint and extensors at the PIP joint. The gliding and flexible nature of these tissues bring into question the validity of the assumption that the extension moment arm of the intrinsic muscles at the PIP joint are independent of the position of the MCP joint. Indeed the fact that some of the intrinsic muscles exhibit an increasing (bowstringing) moment arm at the MCP joint with increased flexion infers that the paths of muscles acting through the dorsal expansion do change with respect to phalanx rotation. Does this changing path then affect the extension moment arm of the intrinsics acting at the PIP joint? This project investigates this question with the hypothesis that the extension moment arms of the second lumbrical (2Lum), the second and third dorsal interosseous (2DI and 3DI) at the middle finger PIP joint are significantly different with the middle MCP joint flexed, neutral (at extension) and hyperextended.

Abstract:
Abstract This study investigates the effect of foot additional mass on the abduction and internal rotation knee angles during knee extension exercise. Three subjects (two male and one female) performed four sets of ten repetitions of the knee extension exercise for the right leg. For the first set, the subject performed the exercise with no additional weight. For each set after, weight was added around the subject’s right foot and the subject was allowed a rest period before beginning the next set. The weights for sets 1, 2, 3, and 4 were 0.00kg (no additional weight), 0.82kg, 1.64kg, and 2.27kg respectively. The subject’s motion during the knee extension exercise was tracked by utilizing VICON motion analysis system to capture position data of markers placed on the femur and tibia. This data was filtered with a low pass Butterworth filter and used to create tibial and femoral coordinate systems’ unit vectors. These unit vectors were used to determine the knee joint coordinate system. The joint coordinate system was then used to calculate the clinical angles: knee extension, abduction, and internal rotation. After averaging ten repetitions for each set (additional mass), the effect of additional mass on clinical angles was reported. The data showed that each subject had a differing natural motion when performing the exercise. The amount of internal rotation during the first 90° to 30° of flexion can vary between subjects. However, the screw-home mechanism is observed, i.e. tibia externally rotates with respect to femur as the knee extends. This is true for all subjects. On the other hand, the abduction of the tibia varies greatly between subjects. This finding has been acknowledged in the literature. Although the initial and final values for the clinical angles were affected when additional weight was added, the amount was insignificant and unpredictable.

Abstract:
Epistemic logic programs constitute an extension of the stable model semantics to deal with new constructs called "subjective literals." Informally speaking, a subjective literal allows checking whether some objective literal is true in all or some stable models. However, its associated semantics has proved to be non-trivial, since the truth of subjective literals may interfere with the set of stable models it is supposed to query. As a consequence, no clear agreement has been reached and different semantic proposals have been made in the literature. In this paper, we review an extension of the well-known splitting property for logic programs to the epistemic case. This "epistemic splitting property" is defined as a general condition that can be checked on any arbitrary epistemic semantics. Its satisfaction has desirable consequences both in the representation of conformant planning problems and in the encoding of the so-called subjective constraints.

Abstract:
For a probabilistic extension of the description logic EL⊥, we consider the task of automatic acquisition of terminological knowledge from a given probabilistic interpretation. Basically, such a probabilistic interpretation is a family of directed graphs the vertices and edges of which are labeled, and where a discrete probabilitymeasure on this graph family is present. The goal is to derive so-called concept inclusions which are expressible in the considered probabilistic description logic and which hold true in the given probabilistic interpretation. A procedure for an appropriate axiomatization of such graph families is proposed and its soundness and completeness is justified.

Abstract:
Propositional dynamic logic (PDL) is one of the most succesful variants of modal logic. To make it even more useful for applications, many extensions of PDL have been considered in the literature. A very natural and useful such extension is with negation of programs. Unfortunately, it is long-known that reasoning with the resulting logic is undecidable. In this paper, we consider the extension of PDL with negation of atomic programs, only. We argue that this logic is still useful, e.g. in the context of description logics, and prove that satisfiability is decidable and EXPTIME-complete using an approach based on Büchi tree automata.

Abstract:
The cigar orchid is a Florida state-listed endangered species, made rare in southern Florida by historical over-collection for its unique beauty, in addition to habitat loss. It is largely restricted to a small number of cypress domes and freshwater sloughs in southwestern Florida, including the Big Cypress National Preserve (BICY). We established a baseline dataset on the population of cigar orchid at BICY, based on extensive field surveys within the following seven regions: Fire Prairie Trail-East, Gator Hook Trail, Florida Trail, Nobles Grade, North of Tamiami Trail (mainly the Skillet Strand and Monument Lake), the Oasis strands, and North of I-75. These regions were chosen based on past or current known occurrences of cigar orchids. We conducted a total of 25 field searches of cigar orchids in BICY. We found a total of 85 cigar orchids and recorded their GPS locations along with their microhabitat information, including host tree species, host tree diameter at breast height, location of individual and orientation on host tree. The total search area across regions totaled 284.9 ha (705 acres).

Abstract:
This paper explores Pakistan’s electricity supply crisis that lasted from 2007 to 2015, and the ensuing contention that shaped public discourse and political events in the country. During this period, which witnessed electricity outages of up to 14 hours per day, 456 incidents of contention took place, with just under 20 per cent escalating into some form of violence. Electricity became the number one political issue in the country and was integral in shaping the outcomes of the 2013 General Election. Following the election, public authorities undertook extensive investment to expand capacity and ensure consistency in supply while evading questions about affordability and sustainability. On the surface, this appears to be a case of extensive protest working towards shaping state responsiveness. And it is true that the state now sees supply as a non-negotiable aspect in the social contract with citizens. However, a range of factors contributed to the chronology and the selective, generation-focused nature of this response. On the other hand, citizen inclusion and participation in decision-making, and issues of affordability and sustainability, which impact vulnerable and disempowered groups the most, remain absent from the political and policy conversation around energy. This suggests that while protests were useful in generating a short-term response, their long-term legacy in empowerment related outcomes is less visible.

Abstract:
Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial celebrates the lives of the Lincoln family including the final resting place of Abraham’s mother, Nancy Hanks Lincoln. Lincoln’s childhood in Indiana was a formative time in the life our 16th president. When the Lincoln family arrived in Indiana, the property was covered in the oak-hickory forest type. They cleared land to create their homestead and farm. Later, designers of the memorial felt that it was important to restore woodlands to the site. The woodlands would help visitors visualize the challenges the Lincoln family faced in establishing and maintaining their homestead. Some stands of woodland may have remained, but significant restoration efforts included extensive tree planting. The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network began monitoring the woodland in 2011 with repeat visits every four years. These monitoring efforts provide a window into the composition and structure of the wood-lands. We measure both overstory trees and the ground flora within four permanently located plots. At these permanent plots, we record each species, foliar cover estimates of ground flora, diameter at breast height of midstory and overstory trees, and tree regeneration frequency (tree seedlings and saplings). The forest species composition was relatively consistent over the three monitoring events. Climatic conditions measured by the Palmer Drought Severity Index indicated mild to wet conditions over the monitoring record. Canopy closure continued to indicate a forest structure with a closed canopy. Large trees (>45 cm DBH) comprised the greatest amount of tree basal area. Sugar maple was observed to have the greatest basal area and density of the 23 tree species observed. The oaks characteristic of the early woodlands were present, but less dominant. Although one hickory species was present, it was in very low abundance. Of the 17 tree species recorded in the regeneration layer, three species were most abundant through time: sugar maple (Acer saccharum), red bud (Cercis canadensis), and ash (Fraxinus sp.). Ash recruitment seemed to increase over prior years and maple saplings transitioned to larger size classes. Ground flora diversity was similar through time, but alpha and gamma diversity were slightly greater in 2019. Percent cover by plant guild varied through time with native woody plants and forbs having the greatest abundance. Nonnative plants were also an important part of the ground flora composition. Common periwinkle (Vinca minor) and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) continued to be the most abundant nonnative species, but these two species were less abundant in 2019 than 2011. Unvegetated ground cover was high (mean = 95%) and increased by 17% since 2011. Bare ground increased from less than 1% in 2011 to 9% in 2019, but other ground cover elements were similar to prior years. In 2019, we quantified observer error by double sampling two plots within three of the monitoring sites. We found total pseudoturnover to be about 29% (i.e., 29% of the species records differed between observers due to observer error). This 29% pseudoturnover rate was almost 50% greater than our goal of 20% pseudoturnover. The majority of the error was attributed to observers overlooking species. Plot frame relocation error likely contributed as well but we were unable to separate it from overlooking error with our design.

Abstract:
As is true for all crops, production of Citrus fruit is limited by traits whose characteristics are the products of many genes (i.e. cold hardiness). In order to modify these traits by marker aided selection or molecular genetic techniques, it is first necessary to map the relevant genes. Mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in perennial plants has been extremely difficult, requiring large numbers of mature plants. Production of suitable mapping populations has been inhibited by aspects of reproductive biology (e.g. incompatibility, apomixis) and delayed by juvenility. New approaches promise to overcome some of these obstacles. The overall objective of this project was to determine whether QTLs for environmental stress tolerance could be effectively mapped in the perennial crop Citrus, using an extensive linkage map consisting of various types of molecular markers. Specific objectives were to: 1) Produce a highly saturated genetic linkage map of Citrus by continuing to place molecular markers of several types on the map. 2) Exploiting recently developed technology and already characterized parental types, determine whether QTLs governing cold acclimation can be mapped using very young seedling populations. 3) Determine whether the same strategy can be transferred to a different situation by mapping QTLs influencing Na+ and C1- exclusion (likely components of salinity tolerance) in the already characterized cross and in new alternative crosses. 4) Construct a YAC library of the citrus genome for future mapping and cloning.
