They were composed while Sitwell was completing Victoria ofEngland (1936) and writing-among other works-/ Live under a Black Sun (1937), Still Falls the Rain (1942), and Fanfare for Elizabeth (1946). The letters reveal their friendship and their fine taste in judging new authors, including Dylan Thomas. In the 1920s and 1930s Sitwell became notorious for her self-promotion, theatrical readings, and eccentric sense of style. These letters to J.G. Wilson show a fascinating and personal side to a woman who built a contentious literary reputation.

Full textAbstract:
Die Arbeit geht der offenbar bisher kaum bearbeiteten Ideengeschichte von Kinnier Wilsons hepatolentikulärer Degeneration und Carl Westphals Pseudosklerose in der deutschsprachigen Literatur von der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis in die Gegenwart nach. Als Beispiel zeigt sie eindrücklich, wie neurologische Krankheitslehren entstanden sind. Außerdem wird deutlich, wie klinische Beschreibungen von zum Teil nur wenigen Fällen sukzessive in nosologische Diagnosen mit anerkannten Therapiemaßnahmen mündeten und schließlich die für die Krankheit verantwortlichen Genloki identifiziert werden konnten. Im deutschen Sprachraum herrschte Uneinigkeit darüber, ob eine von Westphal 1883 beschriebene Krankheit deckungsgleich mit der von Wilson beschriebenen und später nach ihm benannten Entität sei. Dieser Artikel führt u. a. anhand von Arbeiten von Adolf Strümpell, Alois Alzheimer, August Bostroem oder Walther Spielmeyer die wesentlichen Beiträge auf dem Weg des Erkenntnisgewinns vor Augen und wendet sich der Frage nach der Einheit beider Krankheiten zu. Für die Entwicklung der Therapie und deren Einsatz in der klinischen Praxis gewann ab 1970 in Ostdeutschland die Leipziger „Zentralstelle für Morbus Wilson“ für das Gebiet der ehemaligen DDR Bedeutung, deren Arbeit und Erfahrungen schließlich auch in die aktuellen „Leitlinien der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Neurologie“ (2008) über die Behandlung des M. Wilson eingeflossen sind

The aim of this research is the appreciation and documentation of Wilson Choji Iguti’s significant manual shaping through his most relevant works. His manual technique has stood out in the growing universe of digital processes, which is generally called 3D printing. The chapter Modeling and Design discusses the importance of these two processes and their main features in design courses and also highlights manual modeling as essential in developing new products as part of design thinking. The procedures that substantiate this work employ qualitative research. It makes use of interviews with context interpretation and cases, which are most suitable for collecting data about the life of a professional. This research is supported by the method of Oral History by tape recording interviews and testimonials which had their own strategies to drive the narrative. In addition to documentation, this method allows the transcription of information as interviewee’s quotes along the work. After diving in the work of more than thirty years of Estudio Iguti, which contributed to the toy market and also other products, models produced by Wilson Choji Iguti were judiciously selected and organized in chronological order from the 1980s to the present. Iguti’s working method was documented by two products, in the case of one of them we accompanied and recorded the modeling process on a daily basis. His deep knowledge of industrial processes, his experience with different materials and techniques, his self-criticism and the “flow” of his creative process make the difference between him and other manual modelers evident. Five cases were selected from the interviews and they are intrinsic parts of stories he told. Wilson Choji Iguti shares his experience with those who wants to talk to him about his work; this is the way he spread his knowledge, on the other hand he never bothered to register his own production. This work wishes to leave references of the manual modeling method for future generations.
O objetivo desta pesquisa é a valorização e documentação da expressiva modelagem manual do profissional Wilson Choji Iguti através do registro de suas obras de maior relevância. A técnica manual utilizada por ele vem se destacando no meio do crescente universo de opções de processos digitais, comumente denominados de impressão 3D. Em modelagem e design é abordada a importância dos dois processos com suas principais características em cursos superiores de Design, e destaca a modelagem manual como sendo essencial no desenvolvimento de novos produtos, como parte do pensamento projetual. Os procedimentos utilizados para fundamentar a dissertação empregam métodos de Pesquisa Qualitativa, usando entrevistas com interpretação de contexto e casos, sendo eles os mais indicados para o levantamento da vida de um profissional. A pesquisa teve também o apoio do método da História Oral que utiliza a técnica da entrevista por meio de gravação dos depoimentos e contou com estratégias próprias para conduzir a narrativa. Além de tal método funcionar para documentação, permite transcrever parte das informações como citações do próprio entrevistado. Após mergulhar no universo do Estúdio Iguti, que tem uma produção de mais de trinta anos contribuindo com o mercado dos brinquedos e outros produtos, os modelos produzidos por Wilson Choji Iguti foram criteriosamente selecionados e cronologicamente organizados a partir da década de 1980 até a atualidade. O método de trabalho do profissional foi documentado através de dois produtos, sendo que um deles foi registrado dia a dia, acompanhando a modelagem. Seu profundo conhecimento dos processos industriais, experiência com diferentes tipos de materiais e técnicas, autocrítica e o “fluir” do seu processo criativo deixaram evidente o que faz a diferença entre ele e outros modeladores manuais. Como resultado das entrevistas iniciais foram filtrados os cinco cases apresentados e fazem parte da tessitura das histórias por ele narradas. Wilson Choji Iguti compartilha sua experiência com aqueles que o procuram; esse é o modo de propagar os conhecimentos, mas nunca se deteve para sistematizar a sua produção. A dissertação objetiva deixar para futuras gerações referências do método de trabalho da modelagem manual.

Menciona que el álgebra abstracta ha dado muchísimas contribuciones a la matemática contemporánea, resolviendo en el transcurso de sus 200 años de vida, problemas como: la imposibilidad de la Quíntica, el Teorema de Clasificación de los Grupos Simples y el tan conocido Último Teorema de Fermat. Pero más allá de resolver estas interrogantes, algunas de ellas planteadas hace ya muchos siglos (como fue el caso del Último Teorema de Fermat resuelto por el matermático británido Andrew Wiles), quedan muchas otras aún por resolver; así que l camino de las demostraciones, aunque sea muy estrecho, es realmente un camino muy extenso. Dentro del álgebra abstracta y más precisamente dentro de la teoría de grupos, un tópico importante es el estudio de los automorfismos de grupos finitos. Un problema abierto en teoría de automorfismos de grupos finitos se planteaba de esta manera: “¿El orden de un grupo finito divide al orden de su grupo de automorfismos?”. González-Sánchez y Jaikin-Zapirain consiguieron dar con la respuesta en 2015, la cual resultó ser negativa. Una consecuencia de su trabajo fue refutar la conjetura dada por Bray y Wilson, la cual planteaba la siguiente afirmación: “Si G es un grupo no nilpotente supersoluble, entonces |AutG| > φ(|G|)” (2006:2). González-Sánchez y Jaikin-Zapirain al final de su artículo “Finite p-groups with small automorphism group” (2015), ellos mencionan que su trabajo también proporciona un contraejemplo a la conjetura planteada por Bray y Wilson. En esta disertación, siguiendo las indicaciones dadas por ellos, corroboraremos que efectivamente, tal conjetura estaba equivocada.Tesis

This thesis describes the process I used to research, draw, paint and finally design the costumes for Temple University's theatrical production of Pudd'nhead Wilson written by Charles Smith. I present the differences between the novel by Mark Twain and the script by Charles Smith. The early design process is then described including meetings with the director Doug Wager, the scenic designer Ian P. Guzzone and the lighting designer Christopher Hetherington. My preliminary costume research is illustrated in the text and the accompanying appendices followed by full color gouache renderings. I discuss the creation of the costumes from first fittings through final dress rehearsal and the challenges that were overcome. A separate chapter, including costume and make-up design, is dedicated to the controversial character of The Minstrel. Finally, the conclusion contains images enabling the reader to visualize the design of each character from preliminary collage, rendering and finally a production photo. These are combined with my thoughts and reflections on the final designs.

Full textAbstract:
Quantenchromodynamik mit zwei leichten Quarks wird in der Gitterregularisierung mit verbesserten Wilson Fermionen betrachtet. Die chirale Symmetrie in dieser Formulierung wird von Gitterartefakten, die linear im Gitterabstand a sind, explizit gebrochen. Daher erfordern die axialen Isospin Ströme Verbesserung (im Symanzik Sinn), sowie eine endliche Renormierung, wenn sie die Ward--Takahashi Identitäten des Kontinuums bis auf kleine Gitterkorrekturen proportional zu a^2 erfüllen sollen. Algorithmische Probleme bei großen Gitterabständen machen die numerischen Simulationen der Gittertheorie schwierig. Der Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithmus leidet unter einem verformten Dirac Spektrum in Form unphysikalisch kleiner Eigenwerte. Es wird gezeigt, daß dies ein Gitterartefakt ist, welches schnell verschwindet, wenn der Gitterabstand verringert wird. Ein alternativer Algorithmus, der polynomische Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithmus, zeigt erheblich bessere Eigenschaften im Umgang mit den außergewöhnlich kleinen Eigenwerten. Durch Erweiterung und Verbesserung vorher verwendeter Methoden wird die nicht-perturbative Verbesserung und Renormierung des Axialstroms durch Korrelationsfunktionen im Schrödinger Funktional implementiert. In beiden Fällen wird dies erzielt, indem man Ward Identitäten des Kontinuums bei endlichem Gitterabstand erzwingt. Zusammen stellt dies die chirale Symmetrie bis zur quadratischen Ordnung im Gitterabstand wieder her. Mit wenig zusätzlichem Aufwand wird auch der Normierungsfaktor des lokalen Vektorstroms berechnet. Die Methoden, die hier entwickelt und implementiert wurden, können leicht auch für andere Wirkungen verwendet werden, die im Schrödinger Funktional formuliert werden können. Dies umfaßt verbesserte Eichwirkungen sowie Theorien mit mehr als zwei dynamischen Quarks.Quantum Chromodynamics with two light quark flavors is considered in the lattice regularization with improved Wilson fermions. In this formulation chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by cutoff effects linear in the lattice spacing a. As a consequence the isovector axial currents require improvement (in the Symanzik sense) as well as a finite renormalization if they are to satisfy the continuum Ward-Takahashi identities associated with the isovector chiral symmetries up to small lattice corrections of order a^2. In exploratory numerical simulations of the lattice theory algorithmic difficulties were encountered at coarse lattice spacings. There the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm used suffers from a distorted Dirac spectrum in the form of unphysically small eigenvalues. This is shown to be a cutoff effect, which disappears rapidly as the lattice spacing is decreased. An alternative algorithm, the polynomial hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm, is found to perform significantly better in the presence of exceptionally small eigenvalues. Extending previously used methods both the improvement and the renormalization of the axial current are implemented non-perturbatively in terms of correlation functions formulated in the framework of the Schrödinger functional. In both cases this is achieved by enforcing continuum Ward identities at finite lattice spacing. Together, this restores the isovector chiral symmetry to quadratic order in the lattice spacing. With little additional effort the normalization factor of the local vector current is also obtained. The methods developed and implemented here can easily be applied to other actions formulated in the Schrödinger functional framework. This includes improved gauge actions as well as theories with more than two dynamical quark flavors.

Diese Arbeit wird durch die AdS/CFT Korrespondenz, sowie durch die Dualität zwischen lichtartigen, polygonalen Wilsonschleifen und Gluonenstreuamplituden in N=4 Super-Yang-Mills-Theorie motiviert. Bei starker Kopplung haben lichtartige, polygonale Wilsonschleifen und Gluonenstreuamplituden eine Beschreibung über raumartige Minimalflächen in AdS5. Wir benutzen eine Pohlmeyerreduktion, um eine Klassifikation aller raumartigen Minimalflächen in AdS3xS3 mit flachen Projektionen herzuleiten. Diese Klassifikation enthält neun verschiedene Klassen von Flächen. Dabei treten raumartige, zeitartige und degenerierte AdS3-Projektionen auf. Bei denjenigen Lösungen, die einen geschlossenen, polygonalen und lichtartigen Rand besitzen, berechnen wir den regularisierten Flächeninhalt. Bei schwacher Kopplung erfüllen lichtartige, polygonale Wilsonschleifen und Gluonenstreuamplituden den um eine Remainderfunktion korrigierten BDS-Ansatz. Wir präsentieren eine Technik, die auf einer Renormierungsgruppengleichung für selbstschneidende Wilsonschleifen beruht, mit der wir die Divergenzen der Remainderfunktion in diesem Limes berechnen können. Mittels dieser Technik analysieren wir zwei Arten des Selbstschnittes. Im Falle des Selbstschnittes zwischen zwei Ecken berechnen wir die führenden Divergenzen bis zur vierten Schleifenordnung. Beim Selbstschnitt zwischen zwei Kanten berechnen wir die führenden und nächstfolgenden Divergenzen bis zur vierten Schleifenordnung und präsentieren eine analytische Fortsetzung in die Region der Euklidischen Wilsonschleifen und sagen bestimmte Terme vorher, die in dem unbekannten analytischen Ausdruck für die Remainderfunktion enthalten sein müssen.This thesis is motivated by the AdS/CFT correspondence and the duality between gluon scattering amplitudes and light-like polygonal Wilson loops in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. At strong coupling light-like polygonal Wilson loops and gluon scattering amplitudes have a description in terms of space-like minimal surfaces in AdS5. We use a Pohlmeyer reduction to derive a classification of all space-like minimal surfaces in AdS3xS3 that have flat projections. The classification consists of nine different classes and contains space-like, time-like and degenerated AdS3 projections. For solutions that admit a closed light-like polygonal boundary we calculate the regularized area. At weak coupling light-like polygonal Wilson loops and gluon scattering amplitudes obey the BDS Ansatz corrected by a remainder function. We present a renormalisation group equation technique using self-crossing Wilson loops to extract the divergences of the remainder function in this limit. Using this technique we analyse two different types of self-crossing. We present the leading and sub-leading divergences up to four loops for a crossing between two edges and the leading divergences for a crossing between two vertices. For a crossing between two edges we present an analytic continuation to the euclidean regime to predict certain terms that have to occur in the unknown analytic expression of the remainder function.

We will give various examples of the computation of their expectations values using perturbative and non-perturbative techniques. For SU(N) superconformal QCD we perform a three-loop calculation of the generalized cusp anomalous dimension of the BPS Wilson loop operator using HQET formalism. We obtain an expression which is valid at generic geometric and internal angles and finite gauge group rank N. For equal and opposite angles this expression vanishes, proving that at these points the cusp becomes BPS. From its small angle expansion we derive the corresponding Bremsstrahlung function at three loops, matching the matrix model prediction given in terms of derivatives of the Wilson loop on the ellipsoid.This thesis is dedicated to the study of Wilson loops in supersymmetric gauge theories, we will study their properties and how they are related to physical observables, such as the Bremsstrahlung function that controls to the energy radiated by an accelerating particle.

The first part of this Master's thesis consists of the translation into French of five stories taken from Canadian author Ethel Wilson's (1888-1980) Mrs. Golightly and Other Stories first published in 1961. To date, this author who has garnered much praise does not appear to have been translated into French. The second part which comprises the critical section will open with the statement and presentation of the translation policy that underscored the translated text. We have drawn primarily on the theories of Antoine Berman and Barbara Folkart to elaborate a policy that takes a literal approach (Berman) with "subjective" underpinnings, in accordance with Folkart's wish to acknowledge the translating agent's subjectivity and have it be brought to the forefront of the translating act. Secondly, a number of translation problems that we encountered during the translation process and that raised specific issues will be examined and analyzed.La première section de ce mémoire se compose de la traduction française de cinq nouvelles extraites du recueil Mrs. Golightly and Other Stories de l'auteure canadienne Ethel Wilson (1888-1980), recueil paru en 1961. Jusqu'à présent, cette auteure jouissant d'une certaine renommée n'a jamais fait l'objet de traduction en français.La seconde partie qui se veut le volet critique du mémoire s'ouvre sur l'énonciation de la politique ayant sous-tendu la traduction. Cette politique, qui s'inspire principalement des théories d'Antoine Berman et de Barbara Folkart, préconise le recours à une approche « littérale », tel que l'entend Berman, mais « subjective », en réponse au souhait de Barbara Folkart, qui milite en faveur de l'inscription de la subjectivité du traducteur dans le texte traduit. En second lieu, quelques problèmes de traduction qui ont jalonné l'entreprise traductive et soulevé des enjeux particuliers sont examinés et analysés.

Full textAbstract:
This is a history of Wilson College, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, from 1868 until 1981. It attempts to discover why Wilson, a small, private liberal arts college for women, managed to survive despite financial and enrolment problems which forced many other institutions to close in the 1960s and 1970s.This thesis locates Wilson historically among institutions of higher learning in the United States; traces the development of the College in terms of its founding, governance, curriculum, and campus life; and examines events leading up to Wilson's near demise in 1979. Wilson's small size, its practice of encouraging congenial interaction between students and faculty, its commitment to teaching, its long term affiliation with the Presbyterian Church, and its close ties with the community of Chambersburg are cited as factors contributing to Wilson's renaissance.
What makes Wilson more interesting than other small women's colleges of its class was the fact that its alumnae, students, and faculty successfully fought the Trustees' decision to close the College because of financial pressures and dwindling enrolment. In 1979 Wilson became the only college in the United States ever ordered to remain open by a court of law.

Em uma perspectiva interdisciplinar entre os estudos de literatura e os estudos teatrais, esta dissertação propõe um olhar atento sobre a linguagem e a sonoridade no trabalho do diretor teatral norte-americano Robert Wilson nas três décadas que separam duas de suas realizações cênicas: Deafman Glance (1970), peça marcada pela ausência de palavras e sons, e Monsters of Grace II (2013), sua primeira obra radiofônica. A partir de pressupostos teóricos do teatro pósdramático e do teatro performativo, investigam-se o processo de aproximação de Wilson à linguagem oral, bem como novas abordagens do uso da voz no teatro. Objeto central da pesquisa, a peça Monsters of Grace II ganha uma análise detalhada, seja no contexto de produções na intersecção entre teatro e rádio, seja como dispositivo para investigar as possibilidades materiais e corporais da experiência radiofônica.
From an interdisciplinary angle that takes in both literature and theater studies, this thesis turns its gaze on both language and sound in the oeuvre of American theater director Robert Wilson in the three decades that separate two of his works: Deafman Glance (1970), a play characterized by the absence of words and sound, and Monsters of Grace II (2013), his first work for radio. Wielding theoretical propositions from postdramatic and performative theater, this analysis investigates the process by which Wilson came to reconcile himself with oral language, as well as exploring new approaches to the use of voice in theater. The central object of this study, Monsters of Grace II is examined in greater detail, be it in the context of productions at the crossroads between theater and radio or as a framework by which to investigate the material and corporeal possibilities of experimentation in radio.

INTRODUÇÃO: A doença de Wilson é um distúrbio autossômico recessivo, decorrente de mutações no gene ATP7B, resultando em acúmulo tóxico de cobre no organismo. Devido a sua raridade, séries com grande casuística e longo seguimento são escassas na literatura. Nesse estudo relatamos a experiência do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo (HC-FMUSP) com os pacientes diagnosticados com doença de Wilson entre o período de 1946 a 2010. MÉTODOS: Realizamos análise retrospectiva de 262 casos, descrevendo as formas de apresentação clínica, os achados dos exames diagnósticos, os padrões de resposta terapêutica e a evolução clínica da doença. RESULTADOS: A idade média do início dos sintomas foi 17,4 anos (7-49 anos). Os pacientes foram acompanhados em média 9,6 anos (0-45 anos). As apresentações clínicas mais frequentes foram hepática (36,3%), neurológica (34,7%), assintomática (16,8%), neuro-psiquiátrica (8,3%) e hematológica (1,9%). Outras formas menos comuns foram renal, neuro-hepática, e osteoarticular. Disartria e manifestações clínicas de cirrose hepática descompensada foram as principais características neurológicas e hepáticas, respectivamente. Os parâmetros diagnósticos observados foram anéis de Kayser-Fleisher 78,3%, reduzidos níveis séricos de ceruloplasmina 98,3%, níveis elevados de cuprúria basal de 24 horas 73,0%, teste da D-penicilamina positivo em 54,0% e comprometimento nos dois alelos do gene ATP7B 84,4%. O exame de ressonância magnética encefálica mostrou alterações nos núcleos da base em 77,7% dos examinados. D-penicilamina foi prescrita inicialmente em 93,6% dos 245 casos tratados, e 53% relataram efeitos adversos. Houve necessidade de substituição em 50 indivíduos. Outras medicações utilizadas foram os sais de zinco e trientina. Não evidenciamos diferença significativa entre os resultados terapêuticos dessas três drogas (p=0,2). Os casos de má aderência à terapia evoluiram com pior desfecho quando comparados aos usuários regulares (p <0,0001). Nove pacientes realizaram transplante hepático. Durante o seguimento 82 casos faleceram. As principais causas dos óbitos foram descompensação hepática 41,5% (hemorragia digestiva, peritonite bacteriana espontânea, encefalopatia) e pneumonia 20,7%. Três pacientes cometeram suicídio. CONCLUSÕES: Não existe um exame padrão ouro ou achado patognomônico da doença. Todo paciente jovem com manifestações hepáticas, neurológicas, neuropsiquiátricas, hematológicas, renais ou osteoarticulares de causa indefinida deverá ser investigado para doença de Wilson. Além da farmacoterapia específica é necessária a avaliação psiquiátrica para detectar precocemente sintomas depressivos.INTRODUCTION: Wilson\'s disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, caused by mutations in the gene ATP7B, leading to toxic copper accumulation in the body. Because it is a rare disease, large series with long-term follow-up are limited in literature. We reported the experience of Hospital das Clínicas of Sao Paulo University School of Medicine (HC-FMUSP) with Wilson\'s disease patients diagnosed between 1946 and 2010. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 262 cases was performed describing the clinical presentation, the results of diagnostic tests, the patterns of treatment response and outcome. RESULTS: The mean age at the onset of symptoms was 17.4 years (7- 49 years). Patients were followed for a mean of 9.6 years (0-45 years). The most frequent clinical presentations were hepatic (36.3%), neurological (34.7%), asymptomatic (16.8%), neuro-psychiatric (8.3%) and hematologic (1.9%). Other less common forms were renal, neurological-hepatic, and musculoskeletal. Dysarthria and clinical manifestations of decompensated liver cirrhosis were the main neurological and liver features, respectively. The diagnostic parameters observed in this cohort of patients were Kayser-Fleischer rings in 78.3%, low serum ceruloplasmin in 98.3%, high 24-h urinary excretion of copper in 73.0%, positive challenge test with d-pencillamine in 54.0% and detection of two mutations of ATP7B gene in 84.4%. The magnetic resonance of brain showed abnormalities in the basal ganglia in 77.7% of those examined. D-penicillamine was prescribed in 93.6% of 245 cases as the first drug, and 53% reported adverse effects. It was need to replace it in 50 individuals. Other drugs used were salts of zinc and trientine. There was no significant difference between the therapeutic results of these three drugs (p = 0.2). The cases with poor adherence to therapy evolved with a worse outcome when compared to regular users (p <0.0001). Nine patients underwent liver transplantation. During the follow-up 82 patients died. The main causes of death were hepatic decompensation 41.5% (variceal hemorrhage, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, encephalopathy) and pneumonia 20.7%. Three patients committed suicide. CONCLUSIONS: There is no gold standard or pathognomonic test for diagnosing this disease. Any young patient with hepatic, neurological, neuropsychiatric, hematologic, renal, or osteoarticular manifestations of unknown cause should be investigated for Wilson\'s disease. In addition to the classical pharmacotherapy, specific psychiatric evaluation is necessary to detect early symptoms of depression.

Full textAbstract:
Scattering amplitudes are fundamental and remarkably rich observables in quantum field theory. The basic observation that makes scattering amplitudes fascinating is that in theories with massless particles of spin s ≥ 1, they are much simpler than might be expected from traditional Feynman diagram techniques for computing them. This simple observation might ultimately have profound consequences for our view of quantum field theory. The broad aim of this thesis is to understand and exploit the hidden simplicity and structure in scattering amplitudes. The quantum field theory with the simplest scattering amplitudes in four dimensions is planar N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. This theory has provided considerable inspiration in developing new computational techniques and has provided many important theoretical insights. In this theory, there is a remarkable correspondence between scattering amplitudes and null polygonal Wilson loops, observables which on first inspection look very different. In this thesis, we will provide new insights into this correspondence using methods from twistor theory and exploit the symmetries of the problem to find new ways of computing scattering amplitudes.

O objetivo desta dissertação é revisar os operadores laços de Wilson no contexto da correspondência AdS/CFT. Estes operadores, presentes em qualquer teoria de calibre, são importantes por nos fornecer um parâmetro de ordem para a transição de fase confinante/desconfinante. Além disso, eles são particularmente importantes no estudo da correspondência AdS/ CFT pois: i) Eles nos dão, em alguns casos, resultados exatos graças ao fato de poderem ser localizados em um modelo de matrizes, desta forma nos permitindo fazer testes altamente não triviais da correspondência; ii) Eles são os objetos da teoria de calibre que são duais as cordas propagando no interior do espaço, nos dando um rico dicionário entre quantidades no interior (AdS) e na borda do espaço (CFT). Depois de revisarmos os laços de Wilson em teorias de calibre e a correspondência Ads/CFT, introduziremos a definição dos laços de Wilson supersimétricos 1/2 BPS. Calcularemos eles para o caso de um acoplamento fraco e para qualquer outro valor da constante de acoplamento usando técnicas de modelos de matrizes. Finalmente, compararemos nossos resultados com computações de superfícies minimais no interior do espaço, encontrando uma concordância perfeita.The aim of this thesis is to review Wilson loop operators in the contexto f the AdS/CFT correspondence. These operators, wich are present in any gauge theory, are important because they furnish an order parameter for confinement/deconfinement phase transitions. Besides this, they are particularly relevant in the study of the AdS/CFT correspondence because: i) they allow, in some cases, for exact results thanks to localization to matrix models and make it possible to perform highly non-trivial tests of the correspondence; ii) they are the gauge theory objects dual to strings propagating in the bulk of the space and give a rich dictionary between bulk (AdS) and boundary (CFT) quantities. After reviews of Wilson loops in gauge theories and of the Ads/CFT correspondence, we will introduce the definition of 1/2 BPS supersymmetric Wilson loops, we will compute them at weak coupling and then at any order in the coupling constant via matrix model techniques, and finally we will compare our results with minimal surface computations in the bulk, finding perfect agreement.

28e Président des États-Unis (1913-1921), le père de la Société des Nations Woodrow Wilson est surtout connu pour son œuvre en matière de relations internationales. Au long du chemin qui l’a mené de l’Université à la Maison-Blanche, il a pourtant construit une oeuvre imposante en théorie politique et en droit constitutionnel. Cette thèse se propose d’explorer la pensée constitutionnelle de Woodrow Wilson. Elle s’attache à la replacer dans son contexte doctrinal, celui du « constitutionnalisme progressiste », et analyse de façon approfondie la critique que développe Wilson à l’encontre du système états-unien de séparation des pouvoirs. Notre ambition est de montrer que cette critique, placée sous les auspices du réalisme juridique, repose sur une conception à la fois originale et subtile de la « Constitution vivante » et de sa force contraignanteThe 28th President of the United States (1913-1921) and founding father of the League of Nations, Woodrow Wilson, is mainly known for his oeuvre in the field of international relations. On the path from the University to the White House, his work in the fields of political theory and constitutional law is nevertheless imposing. This doctoral dissertation aims at exploring the constitutional thought of Woodrow Wilson and situating it in the context of progressive constitutionalism. It provides a thorough analysis of the Wilsonian critique of the separation of powers in the American system. It would like to show that this critique is based, under the auspices of legal realism, on an original and subtle idea of the « Living Constitution » and of its constraining force

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse se propose de montrer comment l'écrivain guyanais, Wilson Harris, transcende les catégories traditionnelles du roman et du langage afin de rendre compte de la réalité telle qu'il la perçoit, c'est-à-dire dans toute sa pluralité et sa fluidité. Ce sont ces caractéristiques qui confèrent à la pensée de l'écrivain sa densité et sa complexité. Tenter de l'expliciter en dégageant ses lignes de force et ses concepts essentiels a été l'objet de notre travail. Apres avoir défini, dans la première partie, les caractéristiques du monde moderne, un monde que l'écrivain guyanais décrit comme étant polarisé et fragmenté en raison de l'aveuglement des hommes, cette étude met en lumière le rôle central de la métaphore dans l'écriture harrissienne en en analysant notamment les métamorphoses. C'est cette transformation des images qui rend compte de l'évolution de la perception chez les protagonistes des romans et qui leur permet de dépasser les polarisations du monde qui les entoure. La troisième partie analyse la poétique du récit chez Harris afin d'en montrer le caractère novateur, notamment en ce qui concerne la représentation de l'univers référentiel ou le statut du narrateur. L'objectif est de montrer comment la mouvance est au cœur même du dispositif fictionnel de l'écrivain. C'est cette mouvance qui déroute souvent le lecteur et nous en avons souligné les caractéristiques essentielles, grâce à une analyse de concepts clefs de l'écrivain tels que la "vision de la conscience" ou "la répétition infinie", afin d'en rendre sa perception plus aiséeThe purpose of this thesis is to show how Wilson Harris, the Guyanese writer, transcends the traditional categories of both fiction and language to present reality as he perceives it, that is to say as a plural and fluid entity. Plurality and fluidity are the very characterisitics that make the writer's thought so complex and dense. The aim of this study is therefore to try and explain it through an analysis of its defining concepts and themes. After defining, in the first part, the characteristics of the modern world, which the Guyanese writer describes as polarized and fragmented owing to man's blindness, this study throws light on the central role of the metaphors in Harris’s writing through the analysis of their pattern of metamorphosis. It is indeed through this process of transformation that the writer accounts for the perceptual changes that take place in the protagonists of the novels enabling them to transcend the world's polarizations. The third part focusses on the poetics of fiction and especially on its originality. The aim is to show how deconstruction is at the heart of the novelist's fictional world. It is this deconstructive process that often baffles the reader and we have underlined its central characteristics, thanks to the analysis of the writer's fundamental concepts such as the "vision of consciousness" or the "infinite rehearsal," in order to make his vision more perceptible to the reader
