Akita leg. Paratypes: 1 ex. (NSMT-I-C 200238), data same as in holotype; 1 ex. ♂ (NSMT-I-C 200239, dissected and mounted on slides), same data as in holotype; 1 ex. (NSMT-I-C 200240, dissected and mounted on slides), same data as in holotype; 1ex. (OMNH-TI), place same as in holotype, 13 April 2016, S. Sugimoto leg. light trap; 1 ex. (MNMIn 9000005), data same as in holotype. Description (the value in holotype presented in parentheses). Body length 1.52–1.90 (1.82) mm. Body yellowish brown, rather glossy. Pronotum length 0.44–0.52 (0.48) mm; pronotum width 0.40–0.51 (0.51) mm; elytral length 1.00–1.20 (1.20) mm; elytral width 0.47–0.55 (0.55) mm; PW/PL 0.91–1.06 (1.06); EW/PW 0.98–1.08 (1.08); EL/EW 2.18–2.36 (2.18); EL/PL 2.27–2.53 (2.50). Sides of vertex raised and carinate, frons and vertex granulate, eyes large, half as long as their mutual distance, bearing thick facetal setae. Antenna rather short and thick, 11-segmented, antennal club consisting of terminal three segments of equal size, all transverse, last segment twice as wide as long; segments III and IV same in size (Figs 4 and 10). Pronotum, sides straight or slightly sinuate, parallel-sided or feebly narrowing posteriorly, four longitudinal carinae distinctly developed, admedian carinae nearly straight and parallel to each other, sublateral ones weakly sinuate, anterior and posterior angles distinct, nearly right angles; surface of pronotum covered with polygonal granules rather sparsely arranged. Elytra with distinct ridges, ridges 3 and 4 joined together before reaching elytral edge; sharply pointed setae arranged on ridges and intervals among punctures. Mesosternum, metasternum and abdomen ventrally covered all over with babble-shaped punctures of various shapes and sizes (Fig. 8), ventral setae long, about 0.13× the length of metasternum. Aedeagus (Fig. 11) trilobed-type, median lobe sharply pointed at tip, with fine hairs densely arranged on an elongate ring, parameres straight, each with four minute setae, 1.4 times as long as basal piece.

The new species is named after Mr. Katsumi Akita who collected the specimens and offered them for my study.Published as part of Aoki, Jun-ichi, 2018, Japanese Species of the Genus Lasconotus (Coleoptera: Zopheridae: Colydiinae), with Description of a New Species from Ishigaki-jima Island, the Ryukyu Islands, pp. 69-74 in Species Diversity 23 (1) on pages 72-73, DOI: 10.12782/specdiv.23.69, http://zenodo.org/record/458513
Wilson Fermions, Random Matrix Theory and the Aoki Phase
No full textAkemann G, Damgaard PH, Splittorff K, Verbaarschot JJM. Wilson Fermions, Random Matrix Theory and the Aoki Phase. In: PoS (Lattice 2010). Vol 92. 2010.The QCD partition function for the Wilson Dirac operator, , at nonzerolattice spacing can be expressed in terms of a chiral Lagrangian as asystematic expansion in the quark mass, the momentum and . Starting fromthis chiral Lagrangian we obtain an analytical expression for the spectraldensity of in the microscopic domain. It is shown that the-Hermiticity of the Dirac operator necessarily leads to a coefficientof the term that is consistent with the existence of an Aoki phase. Thetransition to the Aoki phase is explained, and the interplay of the index of and nonzero is discussed. We formulate a random matrix theory for theWilson Dirac operator with index (which, in the continuum limit, becomesequal to the topological charge of gauge field configurations). It is shown byan explicit calculation that this random matrix theory reproduces the-dependence of the chiral Lagrangian in the microscopic domain, and thatthe sign of the -term is directly related to the -Hermiticity of

Reavaliação dos parâmetros dos solos de Fortaleza pelo método aoki e velloso(1975) para estacas do tipo raiz.
No full textThis paper approaches a re-evaluation of the parameters k and ? in soils applied for the calculation of loading capacity in root stakes foundations type, originally proposed by Aoki and Velloso (1975).
The method was applied to the most commonly used soils in the city of Fortaleza, Northeast Brazil.
Initially, a screening was applied to 54 constructions which had root stakes foundation. Later, the parameters k and ? based on Aoki and Velloso (1975) method were analyzed with regard to results from percussion surveys (SPT) and loading tests in four independent construction sites. Eventually,
the parameters were checked out.Este artigo apresenta uma reavaliação dos parâmetros de solos k e ? utilizados para o cálculo da capacidade de carga de fundações em estaca do tipo raiz proposto, originalmente, por Aoki e Velloso (1975). O modelo foi adequado a alguns dos tipos de solos mais comumente encontrados na cidade
de Fortaleza, Nordeste brasileiro. Inicialmente, apresenta-se um mapeamento de 54 ocorrências de edificações que apresentam fundações em estacas do tipo raiz. Em seguida, os parâmetros de solo k e ? do método Aoki e Velloso (1975) são retroanalisados a partir dos resultados de sondagens à
percussão (SPT) e de provas de cargas realizadas em quatro obras. Por fim, validam-se os parâmetros retroanalisados
