Topological Crystalline Insulators
No full textWe give an introduction to topological crystalline insulators, that is, gapped ground states of quantum matter that are not adiabatically connected to an atomic limit without breaking symmetries that include spatial transformations, like mirror or rotational symmetries. To deduce the topological properties, we use non-Abelian Wilson loops. We also discuss in detail higher-order topological insulators with hinge and corner states, and in particular, present interacting bosonic models for the latter class of systems

Lavinia, the Unacknowledged Co-Author of Titus Andronicus
No full textThe continuing debate over the potentially collaborative status of Titus Andronicus is symptomatic of Shakespeare’s exploration of collaboration within the play through the character of Lavinia. He creates a Rome in which multiple narratives about purity, rape and sacrifice circulate. It is not the pure ideal society that Titus imagines, but a hybrid. Lavinia’s rape results from conflict between the many tales striving to inscribe her, prominently those of Philomela and Lucrece, and her violation enables her to recognize them. Becoming aware of her own composite nature and the hybridity of the state, Lavinia rejects the strategy of reading employed around and used on her. Rather than inserting herself into one tale and attempting to repeat it, reiterating Roman glory or sacrificing herself in order to restore it, Lavinia’s awareness of the many circulating stories enables her to manipulate them.
Lavinia becomes the play’s figure for collaboration and the co-author of her own story, asserting her place as an “impure” hybrid in Rome. Her collaborative skills uniquely fit Lavinia to help her contemporaries survive in the state they are coming to realize is not, and never was, an unadulterated haven from confusion. In claiming a place for herself in society, Lavinia risks being drawn back into the dominant narratives of purity and sacrifice, a danger that comes to fruition in her murder. Unsuccessful for herself, Lavinia leaves her story in circulation, an assertion of the hybridity that neither her surviving family nor the society as a whole can ignore
<i>Titus Andronicus</i> with George Peele
No full textAbstract
The external evidence for the genesis of Titus Andronicus is meagre, and has become even smaller of late. T. M. Parrott's essay of 1919 may stand as the first attempt to establish the authenticity of Titus Andronicus by using the methods of modern authorship studies, combining quantitative analysis of the play's verse styles with the citation of enough close parallel passages to make the case for the separate presence of George Peele and Shakespeare beyond the possibility of coincidence or imitation. Specifically discussed is the detailed evaluation of Peele's share in Titus Andronicus. The case for Peele's co-authorship can be made even stronger by examining other aspects of the play's style: three new tests have been devised. It can be stated that Peele is recognized as co-author of ‘The Most Lamentable Romaine Tragedy of Titus Andronicus’.</jats:p
Van Hove tuning of AV3Sb5 kagome metals under pressure and strain
Get PDFFrom first-principles calculations, we investigate the structural and electronic properties of the kagome metals AV3Sb5 (A = Cs, K, Rb) under isotropic and anisotropic pressure. Charge-ordering patterns are found to be unanimously suppressed, while there is a significant rearrangement of p-type and m-type Van Hove point energies with respect to the Fermi level. Already for moderate tensile strain along the V plane and compressive strain normal to the V layer, we find that a Van Hove point can be shifted to the Fermi energy. Such a mechanism provides an invaluable tuning knob to alter the correlation profile in the kagome metal, and suggests itself for further experimental investigation. It might allow us to reconcile possible multidome superconductivity in kagome metals not only from phonons but also from the viewpoint of unconventional pairing

No full textWe sincerely express our apology for the changes in the author list in the article entitled Patorani local knowledge system in fisheries resources conservation education in Galesong District South Sulawesi. This article was published on DOI: 10.17977/um017v28i12023p52-63, with the authors list consisting of Hasriyanti, Rusdi, Alonge Titus Adeyemi, Michel E. D. Chaves, and Erman Syarif. However, Michel E. D. Chaves issue a complaint regarding his involvement during the research and paper completion. He did not agree to the inclusion of his name in the author list. We have contacted the corresponding author for confirmation. Besides, the co-author has also confirmed the mistake in the writing of one of the author’s names, Alonge Titus Adeyemi, which should be Titus Adeyemi Alonge. The corresponding author has submitted a letter of author contribution signed by Hasriyanti, Rusdi, Titus Adeyemi Alonge, and Erman Syarif. The original article has been revised, and reasonable effort should be made to remove all references to this article
A career reconstruction of Titus Flavius Agricola
Get PDFTit Flavije Agrikola obnašao je municipalnu službu u Saloni, Ekvu, Rideru i Splonumu te jedan vojnički položaj u X. legiji Gemini. Kako u znanstvenoj literaturi postoje različite rekonstrukcije Agrikoline karijere, cilj ovoga rada je, u svjetlu novih spoznaja, odrediti točan redoslijed obnašanja pojedinih
funkcija, uz nezaobilaznu analizu konteksta u kojem se podiže spomenik.The author presents the problems related to the inscription CIL 3, 2026, which recorded cursus honorum of Titus Flavius Agricola. By detailed analysis of the inscription, as well as a scientific discussion on prominent military and municipal functions, the life and career of Titus Flavius Agricola were chronologically reconstructed. The key point is the fact that the inscription CIL 3, 2087 dedicated to the decurio of Salona Titus Vetius Augustalis, who held also the duties of quaestor, aed l and duovir, is engraved on the same monument. Comparing the careers of Titus Flavius Agricola and Titus Vetius Augustalis, the author concluded that the function of prefect and patron of a collegium fabrum, which were
held by both, was crucial for the erection of the monument. Because of this statement, the paper also discusses abouth the organization and meaning of the collegium fabrum and concludes that collegium was a professional association, presented throughout the municipalities of the Empire, with a very complex internal structure. The top of the collegium
consisted of high-ranking persons, very often from the equestrian rank, acting as patron and prefect. Flavius Agricola and Vetius Augustal also belonged to this category, to whom their collegium fabrum engraved inscriptions on a common monument in Salona, at the time that Augustal was still an active patron of the collegim, while Agricola's patronage was commemorated retrograde
Control of a simple case of inherently unstable systems.

system. An inverted pendulum pivoted on top of a cart is to be
