Ensemble‐based estimates of the impact of potential observations
We introduce and compare three methods to take analysis localization into account when estimating the benefit of potential observations. All methods are tested using a simple linear‐advection toy model to perform various observing‐system simulation experiments with point and indirect reflectance observations.

Speed and Scaling: An Investigation of Accelerated Firm Growth
Abstract While most firms do not grow, a small number of firms are able to maintain and accelerate their growth over time. Researchers, practitioners, and policymakers continue to question the factors which increase a firm's chances of growing rapidly and becoming a more powerful economic driver.

Beyond the uncanny: Shirley Jackson’s poetics of alienation
Abstract Shirley Jackson is one of the most important authors of the uncanny of the twentieth century. Forgotten after her death in 1965, she is currently being rediscovered. This paper attributes her mastery to the depiction and evocation of extreme mental states, especially alienation and estrangement from oneself.

Encountering Each Other in Glasgow: Spaces of Intersecting Lives in Contemporary Scotland
Encounters with/across difference and the physical proximities of people with diverse social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds embody contemporary urban life. Using the concept of intersectionality, this paper examines situations in local cafes, libraries and community‐centres in Glasgow, Scotland, where different positionalities interconnect to produce

String/Gauge Duality and Penrose Limit [PDF]
Berenstein, Maldacena, and Nastase have recently discovered a particular limit of AdS/CFT correspondence where string theory in a plane wave background is dual to a sector of $mathcal N =4 SYM in a double scaling limit.

Gauge Theory and Supergravity Duality in the PP-Wave Background [PDF]
We test the matrix theory conjecture in the pp-wave by studying two-body interactions between gravitons and membranes. We compute the one-loop effective potential of matrix theory and compare it to the light cone Lagrangian of linearized supergravity. We

One of the main topics in the modern String Theory are the AdS/CFT dualities. Proving such conjectures is extremely difficult since the gauge and string theory perturbative regimes do not overlap. In this perspective, the discovery of infinitely many conserved charges, that is, the integrability, in the planar AdS/CFT has allowed us to reach immense ...

We study the role of geometrical and topological concepts in the recent developments of theoretical physics, notably in non‐Abelian gauge theories and superstring theory, and further we show the great significance of these concepts for a deeper understanding of the dynamical laws of physics.
