A Method of Experimentally Probing Transeverse Momentum Dependent Distributions

We calculate the double spin asymmetry A_LL(x, y, z, P_hT) of pi^0 production with the spectator model and the model based on the factorization ansatz. We also calculate the double spin asymmetry for the integration over the range of (x,y,z) for the setups of the experiments of COMPASS, HERMES, and JLab. We find that the results are characteristically dependent on the model used. Therefore, we suggest that the measurements of the double spin asymmetry provides a method of experimentally probing the transeverse momentum dependent distributions.Comment: 10 pages, 31 figure

Historiography, history writing and identity: a critical and comparative analysis of five Korean Protestant historians and their histories

This thesis seeks to engage, in a critical and comparative manner, the perspectives and methods utilised in studying the history of Protestant Christianity in Korea by Korean Protestant historians. Within the history of Christian mission Korea has been regarded as having exemplified many positive characteristics. Some have gone so far as to claim that Korea was a miracle of 20th century Christian mission.This thesis attempts to analyse the manner in which such presumptions and characterisations have influenced the historical study of Protestant Christianity in Korea. The main argument of the thesis is that the perspectives and methods utilised by the Korean Protestant historians in their study of Protestant Christian history in Korea simply serve to expound and expand upon such presumptions. In this respect, despite the purported application of different perspectives in their historical study of Protestant Christianity in Korea the actual written histories of the Korean Protestant historians remain identical in nearly all aspects.The thesis comprises seven chapters which can be categorised into three major parts. The first part of the thesis includes the first three chapters. These chapters provide the theoretical basis upon which the critical and comparative analysis of the five Korean Protestant historians is conducted. It will be arguably demonstrated that the Korean Protestant historians systematically fail to obtain a coherent understanding of the very context in which their historical studies are undertaken. It will further be shown that this failure leads the historians to uncritically appropriate the various historical presumptions regarding Protestant Christianity into their historiographical perspective. We will further demonstrate how this further leads to the actual written histories adopting identical forms, as well as contents.The second part of the thesis will present three concrete examples of how the uncritical appropriation of presumptions distorts the reality of the historical experience. It will be shown that the failure by the historians to question such presumptions result in the habitual replication of distorted narratives and mistaken interpretation of historical experiences. It will further be shown how certain presumptions, which are themselves the product of prejudiced historical interpretation, function as a master narrative which undermines the appropriate application of the purported historiographical perspectives of the Korean Protestant historians.The final part of the thesis will seek to identify theoretical and methodological alternatives that can inform the historical study of Protestant Christianity in Korea. Developments in methodology and perspective with regard to the historical study of Christianity as a world religion can provide useful insights into how Korean Protestant historical studies can move beyond its present state of entrapment. Incorporating methods and perspectives that allow a dialogical interaction with the universal historical experience of Christianity can also enlarge the narrative of Korean Protestant history

Classification of Equivariant Complex Vector Bundles over a Circle

In this paper we characterize the fiber representations of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle and classify these bundles. We also treat the triviality of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle by investigating the extensions of representations. As a corollary of our results, we calculate the reduced equivariant K-group of a circle for any compact Lie group.Comment: 15 pages, AMS-LaTeX v1.

Classification of equivariant real vector bundles over a circle

This is a continuation of the authors' previous work [math.AT/9910001] on classification of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle. In this paper we classify equivariant real vector bundles over a circle with a compact Lie group action, by characterizing the fiber representations of them, and by using the result of the complex case. We also treat the triviality of them. The basic phenomenon is similar to the complex case but more complicated here.Comment: 16 pages, AMS-LaTeX v1.
