That Roast Fowl

Of all the delectable odors which assail the nostrils of man, that of fowl roasting is most tantalizing. It causes such hunger sensations that only participation in the great success will satisfy

Carving the Turkey

What a moment of meaning to father when, with all the family at attention, he draws the first measured, keen stroke of his knife down the brown flank of the Thanksgiving turkey

As We Buy Meat

Yes, I\u27ll take a beef roast. Oh, three to four pounds will be ample, and with that, the housewife hangs up the receiver. The supply and good nature of her butcher determine whether or not, her family enjoy the said roast. Is ignorance bliss, concerning meat cuts

Generalization of entanglement to convex operational theories: Entanglement relative to a subspace of observables

We define what it means for a state in a convex cone of states on a space of observables to be generalized-entangled relative to a subspace of the observables, in a general ordered linear spaces framework for operational theories. This extends the notion of ordinary entanglement in quantum information theory to a much more general framework. Some important special cases are described, in which the distinguished observables are subspaces of the observables of a quantum system, leading to results like the identification of generalized unentangled states with Lie-group-theoretic coherent states when the special observables form an irreducibly represented Lie algebra. Some open problems, including that of generalizing the semigroup of local operations with classical communication to the convex cones setting, are discussed.Comment: 19 pages, to appear in proceedings of Quantum Structures VII, Int.

Using word vector models to trace conceptual change over time and space in historical newspapers, 1840–1914

Linking large digitized newspaper corpora in different languages that have become available in national and state libraries opens up new possibilities for the computational analysis of patterns of information flow across national and linguistic boundaries. The significant contribution this article presents is to demonstrate how word vector models can be used to explore the way concepts have shifted in meaning over time, as they migrated across space, by comparing newspapers from different countries published between 1840 and 1914. We define a concept, rather pragmatically, as a key term or core idea that has been used in historical discourse: an abstraction or mental representation that has served as a building block for thoughts and beliefs. We use historical newspapers in English, Finnish, German and Swedish from collections in the UK, US, Germany, and Finland, as well as the Europeana collection. As use cases, we analyze how the different conceptual constructs of “nation” and “illness” emerged and changed between 1840 and 1920. Conceptual change over time is simulated by creating a series of overlapping word vector models, each spanning ten years. Historical vocabularies are retrieved on the basis of vector space proximity. Conceptual change across space is simulated by comparing the historical change of vocabularies in newspaper collections from different nations in several languages. This computational approach to conceptual history opens up new ways to identify patterns in public discourse over longer periods of time and across borders
