Modular Invariant of Quantum Tori II: The Golden Mean

In our first article in this series ("Modular Invariant of Quantum Tori I: Definitions Nonstandard and Standard" arXiv:0909.0143) a modular invariant of quantum tori was defined. In this paper, we consider the case of the quantum torus associated to the golden mean. We show that the modular invariant is approximately 9538.249655644 by producing an explicit formula for it involving weighted versions of the Rogers-Ramanujan functions

Pattern Research Project: An Investigation of The Pattern And Printing Process - Golden Age

2018 Pattern Research Project Michael Rogers – Golden Age The Pattern Research Project involves research and analysis of contemporary patterns found in the textiles and wallcoverings of the built interior environment. Patterns use motif, repetition, color, geometry, craft, technology, and space to communicate place, time, and concept. Through this research and analysis, built environments - their designers, occupants, construction, and context - can be better understood. Michael Rogers, VCU Interior Design BFA 2021, selected the Golden Age pattern for the 2018 Pattern Research Project. The text below is excerpted from the student’s work: “This pattern was intended as a piece of both propaganda and art and it has an extended audience that can be expanded to include the entire world as artist Ai Weiwei voiced his oppression and the oppressed that do not have a voice in China’s authoritarian state. Similar to historical precedents this wallpaper progression was intended to voice the ongoing strife felt by a group of people. Ai Weiwei has repeatedly used this term in his work, creating pieces is to be shared and seen by the masses in public and private spaces worldwide. This wallpaper pattern is meant to spark discussion on the issues of public versus private, seen globally.”https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/prp/1015/thumbnail.jp

Dimilin for Control of Lernaea in Golden Shiner Ponds

A single application of Oimilin (UNIROYAL),diflubenzuron, was tested in 9 (nine) ponds containing golden shiner minnows, Notemigonus crysoleucas, infested with the parasitic copepod Lernaea cyprinacea. The chemical was applied at a rate of1 0 or 30 pg/l and compared to untreated controls. Fish were periodically sampled to determine levels of infestation, and zooplankton numbers were monitored for chemical effect. Oimilin treatment significantly reduced (P \u3c 0.05) parasite infestation four to eight days after treatment. No significant difference (P \u3c 0.05) was noted between the two levels of treatment. Zooplankton populations decreased in the Dimilin treated ponds following chemical application. Rotifer populations rebounded later during the period, but copepod populations in the ponds treated with 30 ng/L remained depressed from two days after treatment for one month until the study ended. Complete parasite control was not obtained with either chemical concentration using a single application. These results suggest that a single treatment is not effective for Lernaea control. Future research will test two applications 10 days apart at the 10 and 30 /xg/L levels
