    Les procès-verbaux sur la commodité et l'incommodité des districts paroissiaux de Mathieu Benoît Collet (1721)

    No full text
    C'est en février 1721 que débute une enquête qui mène Mathieu Benoît Collet et Nicolas Gaspard Boucault aux quatre coins de la colonie canadienne sur la commodité ou l'incommodité des districts paroissiaux. On reprend ainsi la coutume française qui exige de prendre en compte l'opinion des personnes visées par tous changements des limites paroissiales. Mandatés par les autorités coloniales, les deux hommes se déplacent à la rencontre de milliers de paroissiens de toutes qualités. Cette démarche vise à recueillir les impressions des gens sur la situation qui prévaut dans leur paroisse. Dans l'optique d'une réorganisation des paroisses et de leurs limites, les enquêteurs tentent de questionner les gens sur la viabilité de nouvelles entités et sur les incommodants qu'un tel processus pourrait enrayer. Ce sont 65 paroisses qui sont ainsi visitées par les deux administrateurs de Québec. Des gens de fonction tels les curés, seigneurs, officiers militaires, officiers de milices, notaires, marguilliers se présentent en grand nombre. Les simples habitants sont également au rendez-vous. Nous y voyons alors un portrait de la société rurale canadienne rassemblée sous un même toit pour discuter de l'avenir de ses communautés. L'engouement d'une telle enquête pour la population rurale est représentatif de l'importance que les gens accordent au cadre social et au lieu de socialisation qu'est la paroisse. Les paroissiens profitent de l'occasion pour exprimer leurs insatisfactions de toutes sortes, sur ce qui les incommode. Les informations recueillies sont par la suite compilées sous forme de procès-verbal. Ces documents serviront par la suite aux autorités afin de statuer sur les nouvelles limites entérinées par un arrêt royal en 1722. Étant une source partiellement exploitée des historiens, les procès-verbaux de Collet sont pourtant une mine de renseignements sur la société rurale de Nouvelle-France. Ce mémoire veut lever le voile sur cette enquête et sur sa contribution à la compréhension de l'histoire du XVIIIe siècle canadien.Québec Université Laval, Bibliothèque 201

    Synchronization and Spin-Flop Transitions for a Mean-Field XY Model in Random Field

    No full text
    We characterize the phase space for the infinite volume limit of a ferromagnetic mean-field XY model in a random field pointing in one direction with two symmetric values. We determine the stationary solutions and detect possible phase transitions in the interaction strength for fixed random field intensity. We show that at low temperature magnetic ordering appears perpendicularly to the field. The latter situation corresponds to a spin-flop transition

    Path-space moderate deviations for a class of Curie–Weiss models with dissipation

    No full text
    We modify the spin-flip dynamics of the Curie–Weiss model with dissipation in Dai Pra, Fischer and Regoli (2013) by considering arbitrary transition rates and we analyze the phase-portrait as well as the dynamics of moderate fluctuations for macroscopic observables. We obtain path-space moderate deviation principles via a general analytic approach based on the convergence of non-linear generators and uniqueness of viscosity solutions for associated Hamilton–Jacobi equations. The moderate asymptotics depend crucially on the phase we are considering and, moreover, their behavior may be influenced by the choice of the rates

    We derive moderate deviation principles for the trajectory of the empirical magnetization of the standard Curie–Weiss model via a general analytic approach based on convergence of generators and uniqueness of viscosity solutions for associated Hamilton–Jacobi equations.

    Path-space moderate deviation principles for the random field curie-weiss model

    No full text
    We analyze the dynamics of moderate fluctuations for macroscopic observables of the random field Curie-Weiss model (i.e., standard Curie-Weiss model embedded in a site-dependent, i.i.d. random environment). We obtain path-space moderate deviation principles via a general analytic approach based on convergence of nonlinear generators and uniqueness of viscosity solutions for associated Hamilton-Jacobi equations. The moderate asymptotics depend crucially on the phase we consider and moreover, the space-time scale range for which fluctuations can be proven is restricted by the addition of the disorder.</p

    Path-space moderate deviations for a Curie-Weiss model of self-organized criticality

    No full text
    The dynamical Curie-Weiss model of self-organized criticality (SOC) was introduced in (Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré Probab. Stat. 53 (2017) 658-678) and it is derived from the classical generalized Curie-Weiss by imposing a microscopic Markovian evolution having the distribution of the Curie-Weiss model of SOC (Ann. Probab. 44 (2016) 444-478) as unique invariant measure. In the case of Gaussian single-spin distribution, we analyze the dynamics of moderate fluctuations for the magnetization. We obtain a path-space moderate deviation principle via a general analytic approach based on convergence of non-linear generators and uniqueness of viscosity solutions for associated Hamilton-Jacobi equations. Our result shows that, under a peculiar moderate space-time scaling and without tuning external parameters, the typical behavior of the magnetization is critical

    MINOAN, CANAANITE, PHOENICIAN MARITIME CULTURESON THE SHORES OF THE WEST NILE DELTA:A BREAKING ARCHAEOLOGICAL STATEMENT

    No full text
    In this new maritime study, the author, Serge R. Collet, following those led on the Phoenician sea oriented culture in the nineties and the much more archaeological recent one on the Minoan presence nearby the Cape skylaion in South Tyrrhenian sea, reports his findings from the coastal margin of the West Nile delta: Alexandria shores and southern Maryut Lake.In spite of a heavy and disturbed social context in 2011-2012, he surveyed still accessible stretches of the shores and lake banks, bringing to light amazing ceramics evidence for imported Minoan, Canaanite, Phoenician and Sea People vessel. This ceramics is related to three type of maritime installations: a true marine cult place, a quay and a harbour basin holed in the Kurkar ridge on the south bank of Maryut Lake.To understand fully the reason why of the existence of such maritime structures it is necessary to deepen the notion of «sea orientation» by including the coastal environmental determinations as well as those bound to an imaginary of the sea, to a positive valuation of the sea as entity. The sea and marine environment remain essentially extraneous to the Nile culture.These new findings and breaking considerations lead the author to a re-evaluation of the completely forgotten discovery of impressive submersed harbour installations at the west of the Homeric Pharos Island by the French maritime engineer Gaston Jondet and their accurate re- examination by Sir A. Evans, who argues for a Minoan origin. They inaugurated in some way the maritime archaeological researches so well developed since the eighties by Avner Raban at the Leon Recanati Institute for Maritime studies, he founded at the University of Haifa. Avner Raban is deceased in February 2004. This contribution is devoted to his memory
