Pre-asymptotic analysis of Lévy flights [PDF]

open access: yes
We study the properties of Lévy flights with index 0 < α < 2 at elapsed times smaller than those required for reaching the diffusive limit and we focus on the bulk of the walkers’ distribution rather than on its tails.

Front dynamics in a two-species competition model driven by Lévy flights

open access: yes, 2011
A number of recent studies suggest that many biological species follow a Lévy random walk in their search for food. Such a strategy has been shown to be more efficient than classical Brownian motion when resources are scarce.

Judaism, Philo, and Hegel's Theology

open access: yesModern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hegel displays consistent interest in Judaism, but his presentation seems to differ widely between his earlier and later writings. Contemporary scholarly interpretations of this apparent change also differ widely. In this article, I present the interpretive problem as one of continuity‐discontinuity, and place the major scholarly treatments ...

Unexpected Encounters in Island Worlds: Interactions Between ROC/Taiwan Fishers and Chinese Diaspora Communities in the 20th‐Century Pacific

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Researchers have examined how the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC) cultivated relations with Chinese diaspora communities to secure recognition of their government as the true homeland of the Chinese people.

A new Anthropocene aesthetics: Mediating Harman, Morton, and Boysen

open access: yesOrbis Litterarum, EarlyView.
Abstract Practitioners of Object‐Oriented Ontology (OOO) have critiqued the metaphysical assumptions of contemporary poetry, and particularly the position of the lyric speaker. Scholars such as Graham Harman and Timothy Morton have positioned themselves as critics of these lyric sensibilities. In recent years, concerns have risen around their critiques

Tempered Superdiffusive Shock Acceleration at a Perpendicular Shock

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A theory for steady-state tempered superdiffusive shock acceleration of energetic particles at a plane perpendicular shock is presented that involves solving analytically a tempered fractional Parker transport equation for perpendicular transport in ...

Random walks, Lévy flights, Markov chains and metaheuristic optimization

open access: yes, 2013
Stochastic components such as random walks have become an intrinsic part of modern metaheursitic algorithms. The efficiency of a metaheuristic algorithm may implicitly depend on the appropriate use of such randomization.

Reimagining clinical psychology for a changing planet

open access: yesPsychology and Psychotherapy: Theory, Research and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives The interconnected climate and ecological emergencies (CEE) are driving irreversible planetary changes with profound consequences for physical and mental health. Clinical psychology holds valuable skills for mitigating and adapting to these impacts, yet the profession lacks a coherent vision for its role.

AI Alignment Versus AI Ethical Treatment: 10 Challenges

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A morally acceptable course of AI development should avoid two dangers: creating unaligned AI systems that pose a threat to humanity and mistreating AI systems that merit moral consideration in their own right. This paper argues these two dangers interact and that if we create AI systems that merit moral consideration, simultaneously avoiding ...
