Карнавализация Бродвея Верой Зубаревой. К вопросу о феномене пограничности в рецепции современного поэта-эмигранта
In this article research strategies are determined by attention to the phenomenon of the modern Russian emigrant poet and explication in the work of the borderline factor. A model has been proposed for studying borderness through carnivalization indicators when studying the works of modern Russian emigrant poets. As an example of the implementation of such a model was chosen the Broadway’s poem by Vera Zubareva. The indicators are considered of the rootedness of poetic consciousness by V. Zubareva into the native culture and allusions of Russian literature shown in the analyzed poem. Carnavalization is an indicator of the borderness of Broadway topos and emigrant author's consciousness in the artistic interpretation by V. Zubareva. It is meaningful to include in the lyrical plot along with the realities of New York and their carnivalization of significant reminiscence from Russian classics. In the panorama of modern Broadway created the study revealed the acceptance by V. Zubareva of the creative heritage of Gogol, Dostoevsky, Bulgakov.In this article research strategies are determined by attention to the phenomenon of the modern Russian emigrant poet and explication in the work of the borderline factor.

Предложена модель изучения пограничности через показатели карнавализации при филологическом анализе произведений современных русских поэтов-эмигрантов. В качестве примера реализации такой модели избрано бродвейское стихотворение Веры Зубаревой. Рассмотрены показатели укорененности поэтического сознания В. Зубаревой в родную культуру, а также аллюзии русской литературы, проявленные в анализируемом стихотворении. В художественной интерпретации В. Зубаревой карнавализация является показателем пограничности бродвейского топоса и авторского эмигрантского сознания. Осмыслено включение в лирический сюжет В. Зубаревой наравне с реалиями Нью-Йорка и их карнавализацией значимых реминисценций из русской классики. В создаваемой панораме современного Бродвея в ходе исследования выявлена преемственная связь В. Зубаревой с творческим наследием Гоголя, Достоевского, Булгакова.
 
Observation of asymmetric spectrum broadening induced by silver nanoparticles in a heavy-metal oxide glass
We demonstrate experimentally and support by a theoretical analysis an effect
of asymmetric spectrum broadening, which results from doping of silver
nanoparticles into a heavy-glass matrix, 90(0.5WO3-0.3SbPO4-0.2PbO)-10AgCl. The
strong dispersion of the effective nonlinear coefficient of the composite
significantly influences the spectral broadening via the self-phase modulation,
and leads to a blue upshift of the spectrum. Further extension of the spectrum
towards shorter wavelengths is suppressed by a growing loss caused by the
plasmon resonance in the silver particles. The red-edge spectral broadening is
dominated by the stimulated Raman Scattering.Comment: Accepted for publishing epl13477; EPL Journal 201
Study of Posting Activities of Russian Users on Social Media
Content marketing on social media depends on trends in consumer behaviors.
A changing focus and emphasis on audience activities on social media are a key
optimization problem in social media marketing (SMM). A solution to this problem
lies in a field of ongoing empirical studies of posting frequency. In the review of the
literature, authors highlight the role of social media as a promising channel for a
direct interaction of companies/brands with consumers. Based on theoretical
generalizations, authors present a generation sequence of an SMM content strategy.
The article also includes an analysis of posting activities of users from Russia on
well-known social media. A cost-benefit analysis of posting activities rests upon
some factors: socio-demographic characteristics of users, a content format, time
and day of the week parameters, etc. Data come from such sources as aggregated
statistics of social media and selective interviewing. An analysis of activities for
users from Russia has shown that VKontakte is the most popular platform; Instagram
is the second, while Facebook is the third. Odnoklassniki and Twitter are less
preferred. VKontakte users respond best to short posts. On Facebook, entries with
medium-sized texts have got the highest number of responds. On Instagram, long
posts work better. The photo format is a leader in all of the social media. The video
format has a middle position, while a text is the most inefficient type of content.
There is strong differentiation in response time depending on a target audience.
Findings have made it possible to present recommendations for optimization of
content marketing
Spin dynamics of electrons and holes in InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells at milliKelvin temperatures
The carrier spin dynamics in a n-doped (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum well has been
studied by time-resolved Faraday rotation and ellipticity techniques in the
temperature range down to 430 milliKelvin. These techniques give data with very
different spectral dependencies, from which nonetheless consistent information
on the spin dynamics can be obtained, in agreement with theoretical
predictions. The mechanisms of long-lived spin coherence generation are
discussed for the cases of trion and exciton resonant excitation. We
demonstrate that carrier localization leads to a saturation of spin relaxation
times at 45 ns for electrons below 4.5 K and at 2 ns for holes below 2.3 K. The
underlying spin relaxation mechanisms are discussed.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figure
Optical control of electron spin coherence in CdTe/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum wells
Optical control of the spin coherence of quantum well electrons by short
laser pulses with circular or linear polarization is studied experimentally and
theoretically. For that purpose the coherent electron spin dynamics in a
n-doped CdTe/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum well structure was measured by time-resolved
pump-probe Kerr rotation, using resonant excitation of the negatively charged
exciton (trion) state. The amplitude and phase shifts of the electron spin beat
signal in an external magnetic field, that are induced by laser control pulses,
depend on the pump-control delay and polarization of the control relative to
the pump pulse. Additive and non-additive contributions to pump-induced signal
due to the control are isolated experimentally. These contributions can be well
described in the framework of a two-level model for the optical excitation of
the resident electron to the trion.Comment: 15 pages, 18 figure
A Lopez-Escobar Theorem for Continuous Domains
We prove an effective version of the Lopez-Escobar theorem for continuous
domains. Let be the set of countable structures with universe
in vocabulary topologized by the Scott topology. We show that
an invariant set is in the effective
Borel hierarchy of this topology if and only if it is definable by a
- formula, a positive formula in the infinitary
logic . As a corollary of this result we obtain a new
pullback theorem for positive computable embeddings: Let be positively
computably embeddable in by , then for every formula
in the vocabulary of there is a formula
in the vocabulary of such that for all , if
and only if . We use this to obtain new results on the
possibility of positive computable embeddings into the class of linear
orderings.Comment: 17 page
Categoricity Spectra for Rigid Structures
© 2016 by University of Notre Dame. For a computable structure M, the categoricity spectrum is the set of all Turing degrees capable of computing isomorphisms among arbitrary computable copies of M. If the spectrum has a least degree, this degree is called the degree of categoricity of M. In this paper we investigate spectra of categoricity for computable rigid structures. In particular, we give examples of rigid structures without degrees of categoricity
“The Soft Power” of European Universities: Gender and Sexuality Policies
Introduction. The article is devoted to the problematization and conceptualization of influence, as well as the potential for participation of higher education institutions, as educational and scientific centers, in the formation and implementation of gender and sexual policies in modern European countries, which are widely debated and ambiguously perceived in society.
Methods. The article conceptualizes the concepts of gender and sexual policy in two senses: as a sphere of the struggle for power, as well as a system of technologies and actions in solving socially important problems. As a theoretical and methodological framework, the principles of social constructionism are used in interpreting the content, meaning and research of technologies for the formation of public representations and culture on issues of intimate and inter-sexual relations. Based on the use of general scientific methods and the heuristic potential of the Overton window concept, a scheme is proposed for explaining and studying the participation of universities in the “promotion” of relevant policies and politics.
Results. The heuristic potential of the concept of “Overton’s Window” to the political science problematization, interpretation and explanation of the “soft power” potential of modern universities in shaping, discussing the social and political agenda on sexual and gender culture in Europe is revealed. It is shown that sexual and gender policies in society can be aimed at changing the values, perceptions and norms of the organization of interactions in the relevant areas of life, both at the level of individual practices and social institutions. Social and communicative technologies (informed discussion, events, creation of terms, name-calling) that are (un)intentionally used in the framework of higher education institutions to normalize and politicize ideas, perceptions and values regarding gender issues, the organization of sexual life can be interpreted as important tools for transforming unthinkable practices and beliefs into the category of not only acceptable, eligible on the existence of a pluralism of views, but also dominant in political discourse.
Discussion. The issue of the ethical principles of the implementation of the “soft power” strategy by European universities, as well as the political and social sense and consequences of radical transformations in gender and sexual culture and the structure of society, present in the discourses of European academic science and education, remains open and poorly studied
Coherent spin relaxation in molecular magnets
Numerical modelling of coherent spin relaxation in nanomagnets, formed by
magnetic molecules of high spins, is accomplished. Such a coherent spin
dynamics can be realized in the presence of a resonant electric circuit coupled
to the magnet. Computer simulations for a system of a large number of
interacting spins is an efficient tool for studying the microscopic properties
of such systems. Coherent spin relaxation is an ultrafast process, with the
relaxation time that can be an order shorter than the transverse spin dephasing
time. The influence of different system parameters on the relaxation process is
analysed. The role of the sample geometry on the spin relaxation is
investigated.Comment: Latex file, 22 pages, 7 figure
