This volume systematically outlines the theoretical underpinnings of the possible worlds approach, provides updated methods for analyzing fictional narrative, and profiles those methods via the analysis of a range of different texts, ...

Fiksionaliteit in die Dramawêreld
The fictional drama world differs from the fictional world encountered in other literary genres, and the difference can be traced back to the link of the text with the performance.

From Information and Quantum Physics to Consciousness and Reality
How does the world around us work and what is real? This question has preoccupied humanity since its beginnings. From the 16th century onwards, it has periodically been necessary to revise the prevailing worldview—but things became very strange at the ...

The Minimal Quiver Standard Model [PDF]
This paper discusses the minimal quiver gauge theory embedding of the standard model that could arise from brane world type string theory constructions. It is based on the low energy effective field theory of D-branes in the perturbative regime.

String theory as a Lilliputian world [PDF]
Lattice regularizations of the bosonic string do not allow us to probe the tachyon. This has often been viewed as the reason why these theories have never managed to make any contact to standard continuum string theories when the dimension of spacetime ...

Branes, Times and Dualities [PDF]
Dualities link M-theory, the 10+1 dimensional strong coupling limit of the IIA string, to other 11-dimensional theories in signatures 9+2 and 6+5, and to type II string theories in all 10-dimensional signatures.

Possible-Worlds-Theory und Film
Auf Basis der Possible-Worlds-Theory wird davon ausgegangen, dass narrative Texte alternative Welten entwerfen (vgl. Surkamp 2002: 153). Die Grundannahme dabei ist, dass vergangene Zustandsveränderungen und Ereignisse auch anders hätten verlaufen können, sodass die Welt insgesamt anders sein könnte, als sie wirklich ist (vgl. ebd.: 154).

Bayesian nonparametric models characterize instantaneous strategies in a competitive dynamic game
Game theory typically models strategic human behavior using scenarios with decision constraints that poorly represent real-world social interactions. Here, the authors show it is possible to model dynamic, real-world strategic interactions using Bayesian

On Penrose Limits and Gauge Theories [PDF]
We discuss various Penrose limits of conformal and nonconformal backgrounds. In AdS_5 x T^{1,1}, for a particular choice of the angular coordinate in T^{1,1} the resulting Penrose limit coincides with the similar limit for AdS_5 x S^5.

ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.
