On the Meaning of Localization in Non‐Local Quantum Field Theory
In non‐local quantum field theory nature does not necessarily allow objects or events to be localized to exact mathematical points. Instead any physical measurement has a built‐in finite resolution set by the non‐locality scale. Spacetime remains continuous and Lorentz‐covariant, but below this scale pointlike localization becomes an idealization ...

A Richardson‐extrapolation–based mesh zoning framework is developed to optimize CFD simulation accuracy and computational efficiency in dam bottom outlet flows. Using six mesh scenarios and multi‐parameter convergence analysis (pressure, velocity, TKE), the method identifies an optimal fine‐resolution zone around the gate and progressively coarser ...

ABSTRACT This paper examines whether lenders' risk preferences explain the use of cost‐synergy adjustments in loan contracts. These adjustments represent an aggressive accounting choice that permits borrowers to add expected cost savings and synergy gains from mergers, acquisitions, and restructurings to contractual earnings. Using novel data from loan

Social movements and the synecdoche problem
Abstract Social movements are central to our contemporary understanding of social change. Accordingly, we should want to be able to say what it is that makes social movements special; that is, to say what it is that movements in their entirety have that random samples of people and organizations within the movement do not have.

Kripke on Gödel Incompleteness
ABSTRACT This paper surveys six of Saul Kripke's highly creative ideas and results on Gödel incompleteness, from when he was an undergraduate to last publications. These include his extension of incompleteness from sentences to predicates, his model‐theoretic proof of incompleteness of arithmetic, his compelling analysis of incompleteness in terms of ...

Fugitive Junctures: Life‐Seeking, Route‐Finding and the Mobile Ensemble at Kenya's Borders
Short Abstract Fugitivity has become an important conceptual frame to understand the illegalised mobilities of contemporary migrants in conjunction with enslaved people's historical lines of flight as spatial praxes to seize their own freedom. Thinking from Kenya, and drawing on research with migrants, border officials, activists, police and smugglers,

A NEW ELECTRONICALLY-TUNABLE ACTIVE-ONLY UNIVERSAL BIQUAD
A number of configurations for realizing voltage-mode (VM) biquads using op-amps and OTAs have been presented in the literature, however, none of these provide the following desirable properties simultaneously: (i) realizability of all the five standard

The geometry of zonotopal algebras II: Orlik–Terao algebras and Schubert varieties
Abstract Zonotopal algebras, introduced by Postnikov–Shapiro–Shapiro, Ardila–Postnikov, and Holtz–Ron, show up in many different contexts, including approximation theory, representation theory, Donaldson–Thomas theory, and hypertoric geometry. In the first half of this paper, we construct a perfect pairing between the internal zonotopal algebra of a ...

Alternating-time Temporal Logic
Temporal logic comes in two varieties: linear-time temporal logic assumes implicit universal quantification over all paths that are generated by system moves; branching-time temporal logic allows explicit existential and universal quantification over ...
