Particular emphasis will be given to: (a) dipole bound anions1anions^{1} (which have also been the subject of numerous experimental studies), (b) dipole bound dianions2dianions^{2} (which remain theoretical speculation), (c) resonance states of anions that can be made stable via ``solvation'', (d) dianions such as TeF82TeF_{8}^{2-} that have extremely high second electron binding energies3energies^{3} (which occur in the solid state and in solution), (e) anions in which the ``extra'' electron occupies a Rydberg-like molecular orbital4orbital^{4} (which have been seen experimentally), and (f) chemical bonds that arise when a Rydberg-like orbital is involved5involved^{5}

    Alexander Chisolm wrote from Charleston to John Kean, addressed to Beaufort, SC. He wrote he knew nothing about Mr. Simons having given John\u27s note to Mr. D. He said he would have paid the money but MR. D received it himself from S.B. Vanderhouh. He was sorry John did not receive his newspapers more regularly, but nothing could be done about it. Alexander would make out their account soon. His son, George, took a man name Sancho into the country and put him in a work house. Alexander retrieved him and paid his fee. He sent him home and had Mr. Fuller give him a passage. He hoped he would not fail in his promise of going home.https://digitalcommons.kean.edu/lhc_1780s/1295/thumbnail.jp

    Non-existence of natural states for Abelian Chern–Simons theory

    No full text
    We give an elementary proof that Abelian Chern-Simons theory, described as a functor from oriented surfaces to C*-algebras, does not admit a natural state. Non-existence of natural states is thus not only a phenomenon of quantum field theories on Lorentzian manifolds, but also of topological quantum field theories formulated in the algebraic approach

    The Author of the Alexander Romance

    No full text
    This paper, which is based on a portion of the introduction of the author’s edition of Il Romanzo di Alessandro (Mondadori: Fondazione Valla 2007), surveys the generic components of the Alexander Romance in an attempt to arrive at a definition of the work. The argument builds on Merkelbach’s categorisation of elements and uses Fusillo’s insight into the novel as an ‘encyclopaedic genre’ to propose that ‘historical novel’ is not, as Hägg contended, a misnomer for the work. The main components I discuss are: ‘life’; praxeis; chreiai; Cynic elements, including choliambic poetry and utopian perspectives; and the Egyptian aspects of the narrative. A concluding jeu d’esprit offers a characterisation of the putative author, his antecedents and his process of composition.Richard Stoneman was for 25 years editor for classics at Croom Helm and then Routledge. In 1997 he was appointed an Honorary Fellow in the department of classics, University of Exeter. After retiring from publishing in 2006 he has been pursuing his researches on the Alexander legends and teaching a course on the subject at Exeter. His Penguin translation of the Alexander Romance was published in 1991, and a volume of translated Legends of Alexander the Great appeared from Everyman in 1994. Also in 1994 he co-edited Greek Fiction with John Morgan. His edition of the Greek recensions of the Alexander Romance was published (volume I) by the Fondazione Valla in 2007 – volumes II and III will follow over the next few years – and his Alexander the Great: A Life in Legend appeared from Yale University Press in spring 2008. He is the author of a number of other books on Greek history and travel, and is writing a book on oracles

    Chern-Simons field theory and link invariants

    No full text
    The quantization of the non-abelian Chern-Simons theory in three dimensions is performed in the framework of the BRS formalism. The perturbative analysis at two loops confirms that the model is finite. The vacuum expectation values of the Wilson line operators arecomputedtosecondorderofperturbationtheory.ThemeaningoftheframingprocedureforknotsisanalyzedinthecontextoftheChernSimonsfieldtheory.Therelationbetween are computed to second order of perturbation theory. The meaning of the framing procedure for knots is analyzed in the context of the Chern-Simons field theory. The relation between and the link invariant polynomials is discussed. We derive an explicit analytic expression for the second coefficient of the Alexander-Conway polynomial, which is related to the Arf and Casson invariants
