Leonard Mandel Symposium
No full textImmediately following the Eighth Rochester Conference on Coherence and Quantum Optics, a symposium was held at the University of Rochester on Saturday the 16th of June 2001 in celebration of the life and career of Leonard Mandel. In the symposium, presentations were made by several of Professor Mandel’s former Ph. D. students. Here are the manuscripts that followed from these talks
Canonical Mandel′shtam
No full textMandel′shtam’s recognition as a premier Russian poet developed posthumously and largely outside the Soviet Union. The deepest record of engagement with his legacy lies in the world of Anglo-American letters, by writers and critics including Henry Gifford, Seamus Heaney, Geoffrey Hill, Robert Lowell, Donald Davie and Joseph Brodsky. This chapter analyses this material as evidence of why the history of Mandel′shtam’s reputation spheres has significant implications for how we think about the mechanisms of canon-formation and poetic afterlives. The specific development of Mandel′shtam studies, with its critical views on his poetic technique, and the question of his poetic difficulty, will feature only as a subsidiary treatment to the main narrative of reputation building. The larger tendencies that emerge as patterns in this reception emanate from convictions about poetry and the role of the poet. To a large degree, the story is part of the chapter of Russia abroad and the recovery of silenced voices in the diaspora

Principal components, analysis of variance and data structure
No full textThe relation between principal components and analysis of variance is examined. It is shown that the model underlying the extended analysis of variance developed by GOLLOB and MANDEL is useful also as a model for principal component analysis. The elucidation of structure of two-factor data using the new analysis of variance model is illustrated by an example taken from thermodynamics. It has been may good fortune to have spent a full year in close association with Professor HAMAKER at the Technological University of Eindhoven. That year was among the most pleasant and most rewarding of my career. I feel honored to be able to join with Professor HAMAKER'S many friends and colleagues in dedicating this issue of Statistica Neerlandica to him. The method of principal components goes back to ideas proposed by PEARSON as early as 1901 (12) and developed systematically by HOTELLING in 1933 [4]. Since then the method has been applied to numerous sets of data, more particularly in the field of psychology, but also in numerous other areas of research, including the physical sciences [e.g. 1,2, 5, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, IS, 16). In 1968 and 1969 respectively, GOLLOB (3) and MANDEL (8) proposed, independently of each other, an extension of the analysis of variance approach, which GOLLOB called "Fanova", because it combined features of analysis of variance and of factor analysis. This method, too, had been anticipated by some earlier authors [13, 17). It is immediately apparent that this extension of the analysis of variance involves the same matrix calculations as the method of principal components. The question then arises whether a deeper conceptual relationship exists between the two methods. In this paper this question is examined. The result is not only a positive answer to this question but also a clarification of the method of principal components. The author believes, as a result of this work, that interpretations of principal component analyses found in the literature are sometimes incorrect. We will attempt to show that such misinterpretations are due, in no small measure, to a particular terminology that has acquired common usage in inferences drawn from principal component analysis
Influence of channel mixing in fermionic Hong-Ou-Mandel experiments
No full textWe consider an electronic Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer in the integer quantum Hall regime, where the colliding electronic states are generated by applying voltage pulses (creating for instance levitons) to ohmic contacts. The aim of this work is to investigate possible mechanisms leading to a reduced visibility of the Pauli dip, i.e., the noise suppression expected for synchronized sources. It is known that electron-electron interactions cannot account for this effect and always lead to a full suppression of the Hong-Ou-Mandel noise. Focusing on the case of filling factor ?=2, we show instead that a reduced visibility of the Pauli dip can result from mixing of the copropagating edge channels, arising from tunneling events between them

The co-repressor mSin3A is a functional component of the REST-CoREST repressor complex
No full textThe repressor REST/NRSF restricts expression of a large set of genes to neurons by suppressing their expression in non-neural tissues. We find that REST repression involves two distinct repressor proteins. One of these, CoREST, interacts with the COOH-terminal repressor domain of REST (Andres, M. E., Burger, C., Peral-Rubio, M. J., Battaglioli, E., Anderson, M. E., Grimes, J., Dallmanm J., Ballas, N., and Mandel, G. (1999) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 96, 9873-9878). Here we show that the co-repressor mSin3A also interacts with REST. The REST-mSin3A association involves the NH2-terminal repressor domain of REST and the paired amphipathic helix 2 domain of mSin3A. REST forms complexes with endogenous mSin3A in mammalian cells, and both mSin3A and CoREST interact with REST in intact mammalian cells. REST repression is blocked in yeast lacking Sin3 and rescued in its presence. In mammalian cells, repression by REST is reduced when binding to mSin3A is inhibited. In mouse embryos, the distribution of mSin3A and REST transcripts is largely coincident. The pattern of CoREST gene expression is more restricted, suggesting that mSin3A is required constitutively for REST repression, whereas CoREST is recruited for more specialized repressor functions
