"Il Gattopardo" nella DDR
(2023)
Sulla base di materiale d'archivio inedito si ripercorre l'avvincente storia della prima edizione del Gattopardo nella DDR (1961). È qui analizzata la corsa ad ostacoli del romanzo tra congruenze ed eccezioni che assume i tratti di un giallo letterario. L'opera di un principe defunto scavalca il Muro grazie ad Alfred Kurella, potente funzionario della SED. Nella sua postfazione Il Gattopardo non è canto della decadenza, ma preannuncio di una nuova epoca, manifesto dello Stato in procinto di entrare nell'era socialista. La chiave di lettura è un unicum con una marcata impronta ideologica che ne determina prima la fortuna e poi l'isolamento. Al Gattopardo nella Germania Est Bernardina Rago dà per la prima volta voce.
De/lirios
(2023)
En base al concepto de "de/lirio", que articula trastornos en la enunciación literaria en primera persona, por un lado, con la caracterización psicopatológica de este yo enunciativo, por otro lado, el estudio explora las "líricas desviadas" de Mario Levrero y Alberto Laiseca, y muestra como responden productivamente a problemáticas estéticas, éticas y ontológicas propias de la vuelta del milenio, en el Río de la Plata y más allá.
The aim of this work is the study of silica Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWGs) in the context of applications in astronomy. The specific focus lies on the investigation of the feasibility and technology limits of customized silica AWG devices for high resolution near-infrared spectroscopy. In a series of theoretical and experimental studies, AWG devices of varying geometry, foot-print and spectral resolution are constructed, simulated using a combination of a numerical beam propagation method and Fraunhofer diffraction and fabricated devices are characterized with respect to transmission efficiency, spectral resolution and polarization sensitivity. The impact of effective index non-uniformities on the performance of high-resolution AWG devices is studied numerically. Characterization results of fabricated devices are used to extrapolate the technology limits of the silica platform. The important issues of waveguide birefringence and defocus aberration are discussed theoretically and addressed experimentally by selection of an appropriate aberration-minimizing anastigmatic AWG layout structure. The drawbacks of the anastigmatic AWG geometry are discussed theoretically. From the results of the experimental studies, it is concluded that fabrication-related phase errors and waveguide birefringence are the primary limiting factors for the growth of AWG spectral resolution. It is shown that, without post-processing, the spectral resolving power is phase-error-limited to R < 40, 000 and, in the case of unpolarized light, birefringence-limited to R < 30, 000 in the AWG devices presented in this work. Necessary measures, such as special waveguide geometries and post-fabrication phase error correction are proposed for future designs. The elimination of defocus aberration using an anastigmatic AWG geometry is successfully demonstrated in experiment. Finally, a novel, non-planar dispersive in-fibre waveguide structure is proposed, discussed and studied theoretically.
Das menschenrechtliche Prinzip des Non-Refoulement vor den Vertragsorganen der Vereinten Nationen
(2023)
Die Vertragsorgane der Vereinten Nationen können durch die Abstimmung ihrer Praxis Rechtssicherheit schaffen, und zwar sowohl für Betroffene als auch für die Vertragsstaaten. Durch den ständigen Dialog mit den Vertragsstaaten, die Beeinflussung der Vertragsorgane untereinander und das Aufgreifen der Praxis durch andere internationale Akteure lässt sich Gewohnheitsrecht identifizieren. -- Dabei ist das menschenrechtliche Prinzip des Non-Refoulement besonders geeignet, dieses Potenzial der Vertragsorgane zu veranschaulichen. Hierbei handelt es sich um ein Rechtsprinzip, das zwar dem Grunde nach allgemein anerkannt ist, dessen Reichweite im Detail jedoch kontinuierlich umstritten ist. Erstmals wird ein umfassender Überblick über die gesamte Praxis der Vertragsorgane zum Prinzip des Non-Refoulement gegeben. Es wird gezeigt, wie sich die Vertragsorgane sowohl auf prozessualer Ebene als auch bei der Bestimmung des materiellen Schutzbereichs von Refoulementverboten einander annähern.
In jüngerer Vergangenheit häuften sich Fälle, in denen die Verwaltung Entscheidungen von Verwaltungsgerichten bewusst nicht umsetzte. Der Autor nimmt diese Entwicklung zum Anlass und befasst sich mit der Frage, welchen Anteil die Vollstreckungsregeln der Verwaltungsgerichtsordnung an dieser Entwicklung haben. Dabei erfasst er sowohl die staatsrechtliche als auch die grundrechtliche Perspektive. Er überprüft insbesondere, ob die Vorschriften, die die Vollstreckung aus verwaltungsgerichtlichen Entscheidungen gegen den Staat regeln, verfassungsgemäß sind. Nach ausführlicher Diskussion denkbarer Lösungsansätze kommt der Autor zu dem Ergebnis, dass eine Änderung der Vollstreckungsvorschriften dringend geboten ist.
The African weakly electric fish genus Campylomormyrus includes 15 described species mostly native to the Congo River and its tributaries. They are considered sympatric species, because their distribution area overlaps. These species generate species-specific electric organ discharges (EODs) varying in waveform characteristics, including duration, polarity, and phase number. They exhibit also pronounced divergence in their snout, i.e. the length, thickness, and curvature. The diversifications in these two phenotypical traits (EOD and snout) have been proposed as key factors promoting adaptive radiation in Campylomormyrus. The role of EODs as a pre-zygotic isolation mechanism driving sympatric speciation by promoting assortative mating has been examined using behavioral, genetical, and histological approaches. However, the evolutionary effects of the snout morphology and its link to species divergence have not been closely examined. Hence, the main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of snout morphology diversification and its correlated EOD to better understand their sympatric speciation and evolutionary drivers. Moreover, I aim to utilize the intragenus and intergenus hybrids of Campylomormyrus to better understand trait divergence as well as underlying molecular/genetic mechanisms involved in the radiation scenario. To this end, I utilized three different approaches: feeding behavior analysis, diet assessment, and geometric morphometrics analysis. I performed feeding behavior experiments to evaluate the concept of the phenotype-environment correlation by testing whether Campylomormyrus species show substrate preferences. The behavioral experiments showed that the short snout species exhibits preference to sandy substrate, the long snout species prefers a stone substrate, and the species with intermediate snout size does not exhibit any substrate preference. The experiments suggest that the diverse feeding apparatus in the genus Campylomormyrus may have evolved in adaptation to their microhabitats. I also performed diet assessments of sympatric Campylomormyrus species and a sister genus species (Gnathonemus petersii) with markedly different snout morphologies and EOD using NGS-based DNA metabarcoding of their stomach contents. The diet of each species was documented showing that aquatic insects such as dipterans, coleopterans and trichopterans represent the major diet component. The results showed also that all species are able to exploit diverse food niches in their habitats. However, comparing the diet overlap indices showed that different snout morphologies and the associated divergence in the EOD translated into different prey spectra. These results further support the idea that the EOD could be a ‘magic trait’ triggering both adaptation and reproductive isolation. Geometric morphometrics method was also used to compare the phenotypical shape traits of the F1 intragenus (Campylomormyrus) and intergenus (Campylomormyrus species and Gnathonemus petersii) hybrids relative to their parents. The hybrids of these species were well separated based on the morphological traits, however the hybrid phenotypic traits were closer to the short-snouted species. In addition, the likelihood that the short snout expressed in the hybrids increases with increasing the genetic distance of the parental species. The results confirmed that additive effects produce intermediate phenotypes in F1-hybrids. It seems, therefore, that morphological shape traits in hybrids, unlike the physiological traits, were not expressed straightforward.
Beinahe 30 Jahre lang glänzte die »Völkerfreundschaft« zwischen Kuba und der DDR im öffentlichen Diskurs der SED als Musterbeispiel ihres proletarischen Internationalismus. Doch die Rhetorik täuscht: Besonders in den Anfangsjahren der bilateralen Beziehungen nahmen die deutschen Kader ihre kubanischen »Genossen« in der Karibik als notorische Querschläger wahr, die mit ihrem Aufbegehren gegen den ideologischen Suprematieanspruch des Kremls die Stabilität des Ostblocks gefährdeten.
Anhand bislang unveröffentlichten Quellenmaterials aus deutschen und kubanischen Archiven veranschaulicht Antonia Bihlmayer die Bemühungen der Regierung Walter Ulbrichts, die widerspenstigen Sozialisten in der Karibik auf Moskau auszurichten. Auf politisch-ideologischer, wirtschaftlicher und kulturpolitischer Ebene analysiert ihre Studie zum einen die Charakteristika dieser sozialistischen Zivilisierungsmission. Zum anderen nimmt sie diejenigen Faktoren in den Blick, die dafür ausschlaggebend waren, dass sich diese beiden sozialistischen Enklaven ab Mitte der 1970er Jahre schließlich zu gleichwertigen »Juniorpartnern« der Sowjetunion entwickelten.
Answer Set Programming (ASP) allows us to address knowledge-intensive search and optimization problems in a declarative way due to its integrated modeling, grounding, and solving workflow. A problem is modeled using a rule based language and then grounded and solved. Solving results in a set of stable models that correspond to solutions of the modeled problem. In this thesis, we present the design and implementation of the clingo system---perhaps, the most
widely used ASP system. It features a rich modeling language originating from the field of knowledge representation and reasoning, efficient grounding algorithms based on database evaluation techniques, and high performance solving algorithms based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solving technology.
The contributions of this thesis lie in the design of the modeling language, the design and implementation of the grounding algorithms, and the design and implementation of an Application Programmable Interface (API) facilitating the use of ASP in real world applications and the implementation of complex forms of reasoning beyond the traditional ASP workflow.
