    Seeing through the cat’s eyes: evidence of a spontaneous perspective taking process using a non-human avatar

    In many daily face-to-face interactions, people are able to take the perspective of others, for example, coding right and left based on point-of-view of others. In the present study, we investigated whether observers are able to take the perspective of a non-human figure such as a cat, observing the same effects obtained with human or robot avatars. In both experiments, we used a centrally presented stimulus (i.e. a cat), with its tail lateralized to the left or to the right. Participants had to respond to the side of the tail with a lateralized keypress. In Experiment 1 (spatial perspective taking task), participants were required to explicitly adopt the cat’s perspective to respond, whereas in Experiment 2 (SR compatibility task), this was not explicitly required. In both experiments, faster RTs are obtained when the cat is presented back, with a greater difference between front and back views when the tail is on the right; furthermore, there is no temporal modulation of the back–front effect. These common results between the two experiments are interpreted on the basis of the spatial perspective taking processes, elicited voluntarily (Experiment 1) or spontaneously (Experiment 2)

    Square Dancing with the Stars to Enhance Dynamic Hirschman Linkages?

    In this Presidential Address, the author takes the reader on a reconnaissance of his life and time as a regional scientist. He points out scenery he found scintillating along the way, hoping that some may pick up the banner and chew on a few of the ideas for a while. He suggests a revisit to Albert O. Hirschman’s notion of key sectors and more empirical analysis related to Marcus Berliant’s and Masahisa Fujita’s notion of knowledge creation and transfer.Presidential Address, San Antonio, Texas, March 29, 2014 (53rd Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association

    L-invariants for cohomological representations of PGL(2) over arbitrary number fields

    Gehrmann L, Pati MR. L-invariants for cohomological representations of PGL(2) over arbitrary number fields. Forum of Mathematics, Sigma. 2024;12: e71.**Abstract** Let π\pi be a cuspidal, cohomological automorphic representation of an inner form G of PGL2\operatorname {{PGL}}_2 over a number field F of arbitrary signature. Further, let p\mathfrak {p} be a prime of F such that G is split at p\mathfrak {p} and the local component πp\pi _{\mathfrak {p}} of π\pi at p\mathfrak {p} is the Steinberg representation. Assuming that the representation is noncritical at p\mathfrak {p} , we construct automorphic L\mathcal {L} -invariants for the representation π\pi . If the number field F is totally real, we show that these automorphic L\mathcal {L} -invariants agree with the Fontaine–Mazur L\mathcal {L} -invariant of the associated p -adic Galois representation. This generalizes a recent result of Spieß respectively Rosso and the first named author from the case of parallel weight 22 to arbitrary cohomological weights. </p
