Infrared behaviour of massless integrable flows entering the minimal models from φ31
No full textIt is known that any minimal model Mp receives along its φ31 irrelevant direction two massless integrable flows: one from Mp+1 perturbed by φ13, the other from Zp-1 parafermionic model perturbed by its generating parafermion field. By comparing Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz data and "predictions" of infrared Conformal Perturbation Theory we show that these two flows are received by Mp with opposite coupling constants of the φ31 irrelevant perturbation. Some comments on the massless S-matrices of these two flows are added

INTEGRABLE QFT(2) ENCODED ON PRODUCTS OF DYNKIN DIAGRAMS
No full textA large class of Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz equations governing the Renormalization Group evolution of the Casimir energy of the vacuum on the cylinder for an integrable two-dimensional field theory, can often be encoded on a tensor product of two graphs. We demonstrate here that in this case the two graphs can only be of ADE type. We also give strong numerical evidence for a new large set of Dilogarithm sum Rules connected to ADE × ADE and a simple formula for the ultraviolet perturbing operator conformal dimensions only in terms of rank and Coxeter numbers of ADE × ADE . We conclude with some remarks on the curious case ADE × D
Excited state Destri-De Vega equation for sine-Gordon and restricted sine-Gordon models
No full textWe derive a generalization of the Destri-De Vega equation governing the scaling functions of some excited states in the sine-Gordon theory. In particular, configurations with an even number of holes and no strings are analyzed and their UV limits found to match some of the conformal dimensions of the corresponding compactified massless free boson. Quantum group reduction allows to interpret some of our results as scaling functions of excited states of Restricted sine-Gordon theory, i.e. minimal models perturbed by φ13 in their massive regime. In particular we are able to reconstruct the scaling functions of the off-critical deformations of all the scalar primary states on the diagonal of the Kac table
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
