▼ With the uprising climate problems like the warming due to greenhouse gasses, the need for future climate scenarios is growing fast. Many state of the art climate models exist, but they are imperfect and give a large variaty of future scenarios. In this thesis we try to find a way to improve the predictions of climate models by combining them. Multiple imperfect models will exchange information during the simulations and are combined into a super-model. The idea is not only that the imperfect models can use each others strengths, but also that synchronization between the models can occur, such that a mutual prediction results. The objective is to find a way to let models exchange information such that the resulting super-model gives a better prediction than any of the separate imperfect models. A learning process is developed to objectively determine the exchange of information between the models. The approach is tested on small chaotic dynamical systems that have similar properties as the atmosphere.
The system with standard parameter values is regarded as truth and three imperfect models are created by perturbing these parameter values. By using the small chaotic dynamical systems we can use the information of the truth to see how well the approach works.

▼ Work by Cushing et al. and Kot et al. demonstrate that chaotic behavior does occur in biological systems. We demonstrate that chaotic behavior can enable the survival/thriving of the species involved in a system. We adopt the concepts of persistence/permanence as measures of survival/thriving of the species . We utilize present chaotic behavior and a control algorithm based on to push a non-permanent system into permanence. The algorithm uses the chaotic orbits present in the system to obtain the desired state. We apply the algorithm to a Lotka-Volterra type two-prey, one-predator model from , a ratio-dependent one-prey, two-predator model from and a simple prey-specialist predator-generalist predator (for ex: plant-insect pest-spider) interaction model and demonstrate its effectiveness in taking advantage of chaotic behavior to achieve a desirable state for all species involved.

▼ There has been a push since the early 1980’s for a paradigm shift in criminology from a Newtonian-based ontology to one of quantum physics. Primarily this effort has taken the form of integrating Chaos Theory into Criminology into what this thesis calls ‘Chaos Criminology’. However, with the melding of any two fields, terms and concepts need to be translated properly, which has yet to be done. In addition to proving a translation between fields, this thesis also uses a set of criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of the current use of Chaos Theory in Criminology. While the results of the theory evaluation reveal that the current Chaos Criminology work is severely lacking and in need of development, there is some promise in the development of Marx’s dialectical materialism with Chaos Theory.

▼ This report details the investigation into the Whirling Planar Pendulum system. The WPP is a pendulum that is spun around a vertical spin axis at a controllable horizontal offset. This system can be used to investigate what are known as local and global bifurcations. A local bifurcation occurs when the single equilibrium state (corresponding to the pendulum hanging straight down) when spun at low speeds, bifurcates into three equilibria when the spin rate is increased beyond a certain value. The global bifurcations occur when the system experiences sinusoidal forcing near certain equilibrium conditions. The resulting chaotic oscillations are investigated using Melnikov’s method, which determines when the sinusoidal forcing results in chaotic motion. This chaotic motion comes in two types, which cause the system to behave in different ways. Melnikov’s method, and results from a simulation were used to determine the parameter values in which the pendulum experiences each type of
chaos. It was seen that at certain parameter values, the WPP experiences both types of
chaos, supporting the observation that these types of
chaos are not necessarily independent of each other, but can merge and interact.

▼ Cette thèse traite de plusieurs problèmes de théorie de la diffusion dans la limite semi-classique, c’est à dire des propriétés des fonctions propres généralisées d’un opérateur de Schrödinger à haute fréquence. Les fonctions propres généralisées d’un opérateur de Schrödinger sur l’espace euclidien, pour un potentiel lisse à support compact, peuvent toujours se décomposer comme la somme d’une partie entrante et d’une partie sortante, plus un terme négligeable à l’infini. La matrice de diffusion relie alors la partie entrante et la partie sortante de la fonction propre. Une première partie de ce travail concerne le spectre de la matrice de diffusion. On montre un résultat d’équidistribution des valeurs propres de la matrice de diffusion, sous l’hypothèse sans doute générique que les ensembles de points fixes de certaines applications définies à partir de la dynamique classique sont de mesure de Lebesgue nulle. Ce résultat était connu précédemment, sous l’hypothèse additionnelle que la dynamique classique est sans ensemble capté.Une seconde partie du travail concerne les ondes planes tordues, qui sont une famille particulière de fonctions propres généralisées d’un opérateur de Schrödinger, pouvant s'écrire comme la somme d'une onde plane et d'une partie purement sortante. Nous faisons l’hypothèse que la dynamique classique sous-jacente possède un ensemble capté hyperbolique, et qu’une certaine pression topologique est négative. Sous ces hypothèses, on obtient dans la limite semi-classique une description précise des ondes planes tordues comme une somme convergente d’états lagrangiens. On peut en particulier en déduire la mesure semi-classique associée aux ondes planes tordues. Si la variété est de courbure négative, et que le potentiel est nul, ces états lagrangiens sont associés à des lagrangiennes se projetant sans caustiques sur la variété de base. On peut alors en déduire des résultats sur les normes C^l et les ensembles nodaux des ondes planes tordues. Nous obtenons aussiune borne inférieure sur le nombre de domaine nodaux de la somme de deux ondes planes tordues de directions incidentes proches, pour une petite perturbation générique d’une métrique de courbure négative vérifiant la condition de pression topologique.
This thesis deals with several problems of scattering theory in the semi-classical limit, that is to say, with properties of the generalised eigenfunctions of a Schrödinger operator at high frequencies. The generalised eigenfunctions of a Schrödinger operator on the Euclidean space, with a compactly supported smooth potential, may always be written as the sum of an incoming wave and an outgoing wave, plus a term which is negligible at infinity. The scattering matrix relates the incoming part with the outgoing part. The first part of this work deals with the spectrum of the scattering matrix. We show an equidistribution result for the eigenvalues of the scattering matrix, under the hypothesis that the sets of fixed points of some maps defined from the classical dynamics has measure zero. This result…

▼ One of the phenomenal results emerging from string theory is the AdS/CFT correspondence or gauge-gravity duality: In certain cases a theory of gravity is equivalent to a "dual" gauge theory, very similar to the one describing non-gravitational interactions of fundamental subatomic particles. A difficult problem on one side can be mapped to a simpler and solvable problem on the other side using this correspondence. Thus one of the theories can be understood better using the other.
The mapping between theories of gravity and gauge theories has led to new approaches to building models of particle physics from string theory. One of the important features to model is the phenomenon of confinement present in strong interaction of particle physics. This feature is not present in the gauge theory arising in the simplest of the examples of the duality. However this N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills gauge theory enjoys the property of being integrable, i.e. it can be exactly solved in terms of conserved charges. It is expected that if a more realistic theory turns out to be integrable, solvability of the theory would lead to simple analytical expressions for quantities like masses of the hadrons in the theory. In this thesis we show that the existing models of confinement are all nonintegrable – such simple analytic expressions cannot be obtained.
We moreover show that these nonintegrable systems also exhibit features of chaotic dynamical systems, namely, sensitivity to initial conditions and a typical route of transition to chaos. We proceed to study the quantum mechanics of these systems and check whether their properties match those of chaotic quantum systems. Interestingly, the distribution of the spacing of meson excitations measured in the laboratory have been found to match with level-spacing distribution of typical quantum chaotic systems. We find agreement of this distribution with models of confining strong interactions, conforming these as viable models of particle physics arising from string theory.

▼ Scholars have indicated that construction operation inefficiency is due to particular complexity factors owing to industry specific uncertainties and interdependences. The study of complexity in construction has become an essential topic to provide advanced methods and concepts for construction industry. It also has raised valid questions: Is construction really complex or just complicated? More importantly, how to measure the complexity in building construction systems?
This dissertation is based upon these two questions, and intend to fill the research gap that no quantitative complexity measurement has ever been found in research works. Comprehensive literature search is firstly used to make an embedded conceptual analysis of basic concepts of complex and complicated, to conclude building construction systems as complex systems and to metonymic map complex to construction domain.
Chaos theory was then used to linked complex building construction systems and entropy complexity measurement together and proposed to use entropy algorithms to measure complexity in building construction.
However, entropy in construction could be measured in multiple ways with different results. Therefore, three commonly used entropy algorithms, which are Approximate Entropy, Sample Entropy and Permutation Entropy, were compared along with Six Sigma Analysis and Maximal Lyapunov Exponent based on ten (10) pilots cases and their simulated cases. Two Rounds of simulation were conducted using Monte Carlo Simulation by MATLAB in order to generate more random number to represent different circumstances in building construction performance associate with different sample sizes.
The outcomes indicated that the compared with Approximate Entropy and Permutation Entropy, the characteristics of Sample Entropy make be sensitively and efficiently to tell different construction performance circumstances apart by significant complexity measurement for either small sample or large sample. This quantitative measurement of complexity in building construction not only fill the knowledge gap; it also avoids the subjectivity of evaluators and set a unified standard for complexity measurement in building construction in the future research.
Understanding complexity in construction management is important for two reasons: (1) to visualize how both complicated and complex traits exist in a construction project (object and social systems), and (2) to identify for stakeholders new types of managerial competencies and tools that reflect the understanding of complexity in construction.

▼ This project examines the role played by chaos in shaping and defining the translation activity in a non-hegemonic context, with a focus on literary translation. Based on English-language U.S. and Canadian contemporary poetry translation into Romanian between 1960 and 2017, it challenges the ‘major’ vs. ‘minor’ dichotomy and moves to show that a transnational framework and a networked understanding of translator agency are much better suited to account for the complexity of a translation sociography. Acknowledging a necessary shift that draws on an economy of attention more than on an economy of production (Cronin 2016), as well as on Michael Cronin’s politics of microspection and on Kobus Marais’ paradigm of complexity (2014), my work takes distance from the Bourdieusian dynamics of power that has prevailed in translation studies since the late 1990s and favors a network approach that accounts for disruption, decentralization, and voids. This dissertation seeks to acknowledge the role played by chance, chaos, and self-regulation in shaping the activity of literary translation through the deployment of a mathematical model that has been at the core of Web 2.0 since its very inception. In doing so, my research sets out to complement Bruno Latour’s Actor-Network-Theory with the mathematical notions of network and network of networks. I endeavor to explore the webs of connectivity as they appear in real-life contemporary poetry translator networks with the purpose of potentially laying the groundwork for a possible redefinition of translation across society and media of circulation. Translation can be conceived, I propose, as an act that is essentially, simultaneously and irreducibly linguistic, cultural, and social, but also individual and collective, material and virtual, online and offline. Under these circumstances, I conclude that a critical re-examination of translation studies in micromodernity through a Digital Humanities lens becomes necessary, if not imperative.

▼ This paper explores the interrelationships among corporate culture, capital structure, firm performance, and fiduciary duties. Chaos theory, nonlinear dynamics, complex systems theory, and socio-cultural studies of firms’ organizational ecosystems, and enabling infrastructure suggest that the BCE rule is: (i) a superior fiduciary principle to shareholder primacy; and (ii) more likely to enhance firm value in proportion to the importance of intangible assets in its production process. The existence of “epistatic costs” rooted in the non-linear negative feedback effects of perverse agency theory-driven cost cutting is hypothesized. A theoretical model is developed to empirically test for the existence of epistatic costs and optimal levels of organizational tension or “slack.” Broader implications of the model for fiduciary rules, financing decisions, and the current posture of Canadian securities regulation in the takeover context are explored.

▼ Using chaos theory to design novel audio synthesis engines has been explored little in computer music. This could be because of the difficulty of obtaining harmonic tones or the likelihood of chaos-based synthesis engines to explode, which then requires re-instantiating of the engine to proceed with sound production. This process is not desirable when composing because of the time wasted fixing the synthesis engine instead of the composer being able to focus completely on the creative aspects of composition. One way to remedy these issues is to connect chaotic equations to individual parts of the synthesis engine instead of relying on the chaos as the primary source of all sound-producing procedures. To do this, one can create a physically-based synthesis model and connect chaotic equations to individual parts of the model.
The goal of this project is to design a physically-inspired virtual instrument based on a conceptual percussion instrument model that utilizes chaos theory in the synthesis engine to explore novel sounds in a reliable and repeatable way for other composers and performers to use. This project presents a two-movement composition utilizing these concepts and a modular set of virtual instruments that can be used by anyone, which can be interacted with by a new electronic music controller called the Hexapad controller and standard MIDI controllers. The physically-inspired instrument created for the Hexapad controller is called the Ambi-Drum and standard MIDI controllers are used to control synthesis parameters and other virtual instruments.

▼ This dissertation is a theoretical investigation into the concept of the idiolect and Language Custom and begins with an appraisal of the work of the German linguist Hermann Paul who is generally regarded as having developed these concepts
in his work The Principles of the History of Language (1888). His concept of the idiolect was rediscovered by Weinreich, Labov, and Herzog (1968) and served as a central point of departure in their monograph Empirical Foundations for a Theory of Language
Change. Weinreich et al. used Paul’s ideas as a counterfoil to lend validity to their ideas which would soon after form the basis of sociolinguistics. They were highly critical of Paul’s ideas as there was no place for the linguistic individual in their
paradigm which posited social forces as the causal agent for language change and variation. Paul, on the other hand, believed that individuals changed their idiolects spontaneously and through contact with other idiolects. With these recovered ideas, the
work then examines the idiolect as an open system according to the principles of Natural Systems Theory. Defined as an open system, the idiolect is able to innovate and adapt to new linguistic input in an effort to establish Language Custom, which is
itself an open and variable system with no fixed parameters or constraints. Having dispensed with the structuralist and generative approaches to language as a closed system, the idiolect and Language Custom are developed using the principles and ideas
from Complexity and Chaos Theory. The driving force behind establishing Language Custom is called The Principle of Concord: the fundamental goal of all communication being the mutual understanding of speakers in discourse. Following the work of Ilya
Prigogine, language contact between idiolects is said to occur in either near-to-equilibrium situations or far-from-equilibrium settings. Near to equilibrium is generally one’s native linguistic habitat and the setting in which we are able to derive
grammars and define specific codes and languages. The fieldwork portion of this research was undertaken in a far-from-equilibrium setting: Morocco.

▼ Throughout the ages, mathematics has been evolving and
creating new branches. In the middle to late twentieth century, a
new branch formed:
chaos.
Chaos is the study of dynamical systems
that vary greatly with respect to initial conditions. The slightest
change in an initial condition, a seemingly unnoticeable change,
can yield a drastically different result if the system is chaotic.
Hence the common term relating to
chaos theory, "the butterfly
effect". Something as minute as the flap of a butterfly's wings
could spawn a natural disaster half-way across the world. This
thesis provides an insight to
chaos from both a pure and an applied
mathematician's point of view.

▼ Complexity is a term that is now commonly used when discussing TV serial dramas and the way that, in recent years, creators and producers of this narrative form have embraced innovative and challenging strategies to tell their stories. As a result, it is also often argued that all TV serial dramas are strikingly different from one another; one of the few things that contemporary TV serial dramas have in common is their employment of complex narrative strategies. However, in this thesis, I argue that—while serial dramas are different from one another in many ways—they are also all the same at a fundamental level.
In order to examine the fundamental narrative components that all serial dramas employ, I use
chaos as a framework.
Chaos is a branch of mathematics and science which examines systems that display unpredictable behaviour that is actually determined by deep structures of order and stability. At its most basic level,
chaos corresponds with the way in which serial dramas are both complex and simple at the same time; beneath the complexity of serial dramas are fundamental building blocks that are used to generate innovative, challenging and unpredictable narratives.
I apply the findings from my critical examination of
chaos and TV drama narratives to the creation of my own TV projects, which employ the inherent structures and patterns of TV drama narratives in a way that produces innovative and complex stories. In doing so, I intend to highlight the potential of serial dramas to be endlessly creative yet consistently the same.

▼ Abstract 1: Master Thesis - Investigating the relationship between the aesthetics of Black Metal and its ecological and nihilistic implications with contemporary painting, comics and Chaos Magick spiritual practice. Abstract 2: Documentation of solo exhibition titled Zurbaráns' Dream. The works take as a starting point the paintings of Saint Francis by Francisco De Zurbarán. The depictions of Saint Francis within Catholic mythology in the 16th/17th century used symbolic postures and objects to create paintings that were instructional for spiritual transcendence. My paintings are developed from an esoteric fiction manipulated by the process of lucid dreaming. They are inspired by Zurbaráns' 'dream' of using art and iconography as tools for spiritual transcendence.

▼ Cette thèse de doctorat porte sur l’étude de deux objets probabilistes, les mesures de chaos multiplicatif gaussien (GMC) et la théorie conforme des champs de Liouville (LCFT). Le GMC fut introduit par Kahane en 1985 et il s’agit aujourd’hui d’un objet extrêmement important en théorie des probabilités et en physique mathématique. Très récemment le GMC a été utilisé pour définir les fonctions de corrélation de la LCFT, une théorie qui est apparue pour la première fois en 1981 dans le célèbre article de Polyakov, “Quantum geometry of bosonic strings”. Grâce à ce lien établi entre GMC et LCFT, nous pouvons traduire les techniques de la théorie conforme des champs dans un langage probabiliste pour effectuer des calculs exacts sur les mesures de GMC. Ceci est précisément ce que nous développerons pour le GMC sur le cercle unité. Nous écrirons les équations BPZ qui fournissent des relations non triviales sur le GMC. Le résultat final est la densité de probabilité pour la masse totale de la mesure de GMC sur cercle unité ce qui résout une conjecture établie par Fyodorov et Bouchaud en 2008. Par ailleurs, il s'avère que des techniques similaires permettent également de traiter un autre cas, celui du GMC sur le segment unité, et nous obtiendrons de même des formules qui avaient été conjecturées indépendamment par Ostrovsky et par Fyodorov, Le Doussal, et Rosso en 2009. La dernière partie de cette thèse consiste en la construction de la LCFT sur un domaine possédant la topologie d’une couronne. Nous suivrons les méthodes introduites par David- Kupiainen-Rhodes-Vargas même si de nouvelles techniques seront requises car la couronne possède deux bords et un espace des modules non trivial. Nous donnerons également des preuves plus concises de certains résultats connus.
Throughout this PhD thesis we will study two probabilistic objects, Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMC) measures and Liouville conformal field theory (LCFT). GMC measures were first introduced by Kahane in 1985 and have grown into an extremely important field of probability theory and mathematical physics. Very recently GMC has been used to give a probabilistic definition of the correlation functions of LCFT, a theory that first appeared in Polyakov’s 1981 seminal work, “Quantum geometry of bosonic strings”. Once the connection between GMC and LCFT is established, one can hope to translate the techniques of conformal field theory in a probabilistic framework to perform exact computations on the GMC measures. This is precisely what we develop for GMC on the unit circle. We write down the BPZ equations which lead to non-trivial relations on the GMC. Our final result is an exact probability density for the total mass of the GMC measure on the unit circle. This proves a conjecture of Fyodorov and Bouchaud stated in 2008. Furthermore, it turns out that the same techniques also work on a more difficult model, the GMC on the unit interval, and thus we also prove conjectures put forward independently by Ostrovsky and by Fyodorov, Le Doussal, and Rosso in 2009.

▼ The rapid development of modern ubiquitous computing and wireless communication technology, coupled with the increasingly high penetration rate of the Internet, is promoting ubiquitous commerce (UC) as a significant application for both enterprises and consumers. With accelerated business competition and the popularity of Internet and mobile device use, there is an urgent need to understand the factors that would entice userâs consumption behavior in an UC context.
This study presents a conceptual model, based on
chaos theory and affordance
theory, for investigating the effect of affordance and the mediating role of cognitive assimilation on ubiquitous commerce consumption. A scale that measures above constructs is developed and validated. Survey data from e-community and part-time students who have mobile commerce experience is tested. The partial least squares (PLS) method is empirically used to test the conceptual model and hypotheses using the collected survey data.
The empirical results support the proposed model. The analysis provides evidence that the context-aware facilitation and social interaction positively effect on cognitive assimilation; the cognitive assimilation positively effects on butterfly effect consumption and hedonic consumption; context-aware facilitation and social interaction enhance butterfly effect consumption and hedonic consumption by enhancing cognitive assimilation. Our findings provide insights on how consumption behavior can govern U-commerce initiatives to increase context-aware facilitation and social interaction, thereby leading to effective consumption in an UC context.

▼ Particularly through their relation to ideology, crime narrative adaptations expose the conflict between individuals and communities on one side and the State on the other. Adaptations take the already defamiliarizing effect of narrative and continue to defamiliarize, creating a narrative cubist effect through various audiences and discursive orderings of events. Hence, they question the ideological prefiguring that lies at the foundation of narrative understanding. Insofar as ideologies are simplified ways to legitimate actions and project images of identity, the fact that a society’s narratives necessarily inherit ideology from the State obscures that society and State’s inevitable deviations from their self-images. Ideology misrepresents that which it attempts to legitimate. In order to critique ideological influence, the position from which total, reflective cultural study can extend is the vantage point that consistently and actively questions culture to its limits. It can only come from a position in which the audience’s freedom from domination is maximized. Cultural study and criticism thus arises most completely and honestly when it comes as close as it can from without ideology. By definition, the opposite of ideology is anarchy. In this dissertation I argue that adaptations channel a mechanism by which anarchist principles emerge from the ideological constraints obliged by the State’s pursuit of legitimacy—constraints which are inherent in all cultural narratives. Focusing on transatlantic “narrativizations” of crime events—different tellings of historical criminal events in view of American and European interaction—I demonstrate that adaptations, as dynamic systems of discourse, are self-driven toward anarchist critiques that splinter traditional Western ideologies. Overall, I make a three-part argument, first suggesting a method (based in complexity theory) for critical adaptation studies, then using that method to demonstrate how transatlantic America crime narrative adaptations reveal cultural identity struggles and necessarily tend toward anarchism, and lastly describing how the process of adaptation likewise reflects anarchist principles. Adaptation is anarchist. The anarchist method of adaptation study I propose will indicate 1) the degree to which American crime narrative adaptations stem from and contribute to various ideologies, and 2) how they can make clear those ideologies through necessary, consistent defamiliarization.

▼ Given the complexities of our time, it is not surprising that criminological models, theories and perspectives often fall short of providing complete and satisfactory explanations of complex phenomena. Organised crime and terrorism, and the emerging crime-terror nexus, are examples of such phenomena. If they were simple, they would be easy to understand and prevent, but they are not. Complexity science (‘complexity’) studies complex phenomena. Given the nature of organised crime, terrorism and the crime-terror nexus, one would expect that the family of complexity, including chaos theory, might lend itself to furthering our understanding and knowledge of these phenomena. Drawing on the natural and social sciences, this thesis explores the notion. In doing so, a new complexity model, using borrowed science, is developed to apply complexity in a criminological context, and to critically examine organised crime, terrorism and the crime-terror nexus through a complexity lens. The new complexity model is tested using the case study method and considers whether the new model furthers our understanding and knowledge of these complex phenomena, together with practical and policy implications. The thesis also considers whether the new complexity model adds a new tool to the criminologist's toolbox to provide fresh and novel insights into complex problems.

▼ Nous nous intéressons dans cette thèse à la théorie cinétique et aux systèmes de particules dans le cadre des équations de Boltzmann et Landau. Premièrement, nous étudions la dérivation des équations cinétiques comme des limites de champ moyen des systèmes de particules, en utilisant le concept de propagation du chaos. Plus précisément, nous étudions les probabilités chaotiques sur l'espace de phase de ces systèmes de particules : la sphère de Boltzmann, qui correspond à l'espace de phase d'un système de particules qui évolue conservant le moment et l'énergie ; et la sphère de Kac, correspondant à un système de particules qui conserve seulement l'énergie. Ensuite, nous nous intéressons à la propagation du chaos, avec des estimations quantitatives et uniforme en temps, pour les équations de Boltzmann et Landau. Deuxièmement, nous étudions le comportement asymptotique en temps grand des solutions de l'équation de Landau.
This thesis is concerned with kinetic theory and many-particle systems in the setting of Boltzmann and Landau equations. Firstly, we study the derivation of kinetic equation as mean field limits of many-particle systems, using the concept of propagation of chaos. More precisely, we study chaotic probabilities on the phase space of such particle systems : the Boltzmann's sphere, which corresponds to the phase space of a many-particle system undergoing a dynamics that conserves momentum and energy ; and the Kac's sphere, which corresponds to the energy conservation only. Then we are concerned with the propagation of chaos, with quantitative and uniform in time estimates, for Boltzmann and Landau equations. Secondly, we study the long-time behaviour of solutions to the Landau equation.

▼ Engineering problems are generally described by mathematic models, and the parameters in mathematic models are usually assumed to be deterministic when solving these models. However, many parameters are hard to obtain accurately in practical application, which leads to the uncertainty of parameters. The uncertain parameters may induce the response of theoretical analysis that is quite different from the actual instance. In order to characterize the response of system more accurately, the uncertainty analysis methods need to be introduced. For the design optimization, considering the uncertainty may help to improve the reliability and robustness of design solution. This thesis investigates both the aleatory (random) uncertainty and epistemic uncertainty (expressed by interval variables in the thesis), by using the Polynomial Chaos (PC) expansion theory and Chebyshev polynomials approximation theory, respectively. Since there are many cases that both types of uncertainty are existed simultaneously, the hybrid uncertainty is also investigated in this thesis. A new hybrid uncertainty analysis method based on the orthogonal series expansion is proposed in this study, which solves the two types of uncertainty in one integral framework. The design optimization under uncertainty is also investigated based on the proposed uncertainty analysis method. The detailed content of this thesis is shown as follows.
The interval uncertainty analysis theory is firstly studied in this thesis. By using the Chebyshev polynomials that have high accuracy in the approximation theory of polynomials, a new Chebyshev inclusion function based on the Chebyshev series expansion is proposed. The Chebyshev inclusion function can compress the wrapping effect of interval arithmetic more efficiently than the traditional Taylor inclusion function, especially for the interval computation of non-monotonic functions. On the other hand, the Chebyshev inclusion function does not require the derivatives information which has to be given in the computation of Taylor inclusion function. Therefore, the proposed Chebyshev inclusion function is quite easier to implement than the Taylor inclusion function. The Chebyshev inclusion function is applied to solve the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and differential algebraic equations (DAEs) with interval parameters, which are used to solve the mechanical dynamic systems with interval parameters.
Secondly, the random uncertainty analysis based on the PC expansion is investigated, where the polynomials series are used to approximate the response of a system with respect to the random variables. The hybrid uncertainty analysis method using the orthogonal series expansion is proposed, termed as Polynomial-Chaos-Chebyshev-Interval (PCCI) method, which is the combination of PC expansion method and Chebyshev interval method. Since both the polynomials used in PC expansion and Chebyshev polynomials belong to the orthogonal polynomials, the PCCI method investigates the random uncertainty and interval uncertainty under…

▼ Desde a antiguidade o Cosmopolitismo vem sendo abordado como meta a ser perseguida pela humanidade. Ao longo da história foram realizados diversos estudos, dentre os quais destacam-se os ideais de Immanuel Kant. Desta forma, o escopo deste trabalho é uma abordagem do Cosmopolitismo, tendo como principal referência os ideais de Immanuel Kant e a Teoria Normativa Cosmopolita, a fim de verificar a possibilidade de efetivação desta teoria à realidade, sem, contudo, olvidar-se das teorias físicas a que estamos submetidos. Para isso, o texto é dividido em duas partes. Na primeira parte, analisar-se-á a Teoria Cosmopolita e a Teoria Normativa Cosmopolita. E, ainda, expor-se-á o Butterfly Effect, parte inicial da Teoria do Caos, e sua aplicabilidade à ciência do Direito. Na segunda parte, realizar-se-á uma breve análise do arcabouço teórico do Direito Internacional, mediante a perspectiva histórica da formação dos Blocos Econômicos União Europeia e Mercosul. A finalidade é de verificar possível progressão dos Blocos à um Estado Cosmopolita, por intermédio das formas de aproximação jurídica. Trata-se de uma visão interdisciplinar, vez que a perspectiva jurídica será confrontada à Teoria do Caos, fundamentado na Teoria da Mecânica Clássica.
Since ancient times Cosmopolitanism has been approached as a goal to be pursued by humanity. Throughout the history several studies have been realized, among which the ideals of Immanuel Kant stand out. In this way, the scope of this work is an approach of Cosmopolitanism, having as main reference the ideals of Immanuel Kant and the Cosmopolitan Normative Theory, in order to verify the possibility of putting this theory into reality, without, however, forgetting the theories To which we are subjected. For this, the text is divided into two parts. In the first part, we will analyze Cosmopolitan Theory and Cosmopolitan Normative Theory. Also, the Butterfly Effect, an early part of Chaos Theory, and its applicability to the science of Law, will be exhibited. In the second part, a brief analysis of the theoretical framework of international law will be carried out, through the historical perspective of the formation of the European Union and Mercosur Economic Blocks. The purpose is to verify the possible progression of the Blocks to a Cosmopolitan State, through the means of legal approximation. It is an interdisciplinary view, since the legal perspective will be confronted with Chaos Theory, based on the Theory of Classical Mechanics.

▼ Chaos theory and associated analyses are being applied to a growing number of
disciplines. Studies of biological and ecological systems have shown the widest
application of chaotic analyses thus far. When studying these systems, it is often only
possible to measure a subset of the system's many variables. To effectively perform a
number of the analyses required to study a chaotic system, it is necessary to identify a
complete strange attractor for the system. Consequently, it is necessary to reconstruct the
system's strange attractor from the available data. Many different methods exist for
reconstructing strange attractors, but the effectiveness of each of these methods has not
been studied and compared. This investigation examines the effectiveness of various
reconstruction methods used to preserve the fractal structure of the attractor and the
exponential divergence of nearby trajectories in an effort to determine the optimal
method for reconstructing strange attractors. With an optimal method to reconstruct
strange attractors for chaotic physical systems, engineers and scientists can more
successfully characterize a nonlinear system and apply methods to predict its future
behavior.

▼ Este estudo aborda a aplicação da teoria do caos e complexidade à gestão das cadeias de suprimentos. Seu objetivo consiste em responder a questão orientadora da pesquisa, se a teoria do caos e complexidade pode enriquecer o entendimento e compreensão da gestão das cadeias de suprimentos. A fim de contextualizar essa discussão, este trabalho procurou resgatar alguns dos principais autores e conceitos do processo de mudança da visão do determinismo clássico científico do século XIX para as novas abordagens não determinísticas dos séculos XX e XXI, em especial o surgimento e consolidação da abordagem não linear da teoria do caos e complexidade. O método de pesquisa utilizado foi o estudo de caso, o qual focou uma rede brasileira de franquias empresariais do setor de perfumaria e cosméticos. A análise dos resultados obtidos sugere evidências de que, pelo menos parcialmente, a teoria do caos e complexidade pode sim enriquecer e ser relevante para a compreensão da gestão das cadeias de suprimentos.
This study approaches the use of theory of chaos and complexity on supply chain management. Its purpose consists on answering the main research question, whether the theory of chaos and complexity can contribute to enlarge the understanding of supply chain management. In order to contextualize the discussion, the dissertation sake to disclaim the main authors and concepts of the process that changed the 19th century vision of the classic determinism to the 20th and 21st centuries non deterministic approaches with focus on the raise and consolidation of the chaos and complexity theory non linear approach. The research method used was the case study with focus on a Brazilian franchising company of perfumes and cosmetics. The results analysis suggests evidence that, at least in some aspects, theory of chaos and complexity can indeed be relevant to the understanding of supply chain management.

▼ Este trabalho consiste do estudo das propriedades de transporte de sistemas dinâmicos caóticos por meio do uso de técnicas de operadores de projeção. Tais sistemas podem exibir difusão determinística e relaxação para o equilíbrio. Mostramos que esse comportamento difusivo pode ser visto como uma propriedade espectral do operador de Perron-Frobenius associado. Em particular, a ressonância dominante de Policott-Ruelle é calculada analiticamente para uma classe geral de mapas que preservam área. Sua dependência do número de onda determina os coeficientes de transporte normais. Calculamos uma fórmula geral exata para o coeficiente de difusão, obtida sem qualquer aproximação de alta estocasticidade, e um novo efeito emergiu: a evolução angular pode induzir modos rápidos ou lentos de difusão mesmo no regime de alta estocasticidade. Os aspectos não-Gaussianos do transporte caótico são também investigados para esses sistemas. O estudo é realizado por meio de uma relação entre a curtose, o coeficiente de difusão e o coeficiente de Burnett de quarta ordem, os quais são calculados analiticamente. Uma escala de tempo característica que delimita os regimes Gaussiano e Markoviano para a função densidade foi estabelecida. À parte os modos acelerados, cujas propriedades cinéticas são anômalas, todo os resultados estão em excelente acordo com as simulações numéricas
This work consists in the study of the transport properties of chaotic Hamiltonian systems by using projection operator techniques. Such systems can exhibit deterministic diffusion and display an approach to equilibrium. We show that this diffusive behavior can be viewd as a spectral property of the associated Perron-Frobenius operator. In particular, the leading Pollicott-Ruelle resonance is calculated analytically for a general class of two-dimensional area-preserving maps. Its wavenumber dependence determines the normal transport coefficients. We calculate a general exact formula for the diffusion coefficient, derived without any high stochasticity approximation and a new effect emerges: the angular evolution can induce fast or slow modes of diffusion even in the high stochasticity regime. The non-Gaussian aspects of the chaotic transport are also investigated for this systems. This study is done by means of a relationship between kurtosis and diffusion coefficient and fourth order Burnett coefficient, which are calculated analytically. A characteristic time scale which delimits the Markovian and Gaussian regimes for the density function was established. Despite the accelerator modes, whose kinetics properties are anomalous, all theoretical results are in excellent agreement with the numerical simulations

Entendendo a organização como um sistema adaptativo complexo, busca-se, através de aspectos relacionados à conectividade, interdependência e diversidade, a identificação de padrões de estrutura organizacional em empresas brasileiras. Foi realizada uma pesquisa exploratória a partir de bases de dados de 417 empresas, 118 mil de seus funcionários, de 22 setores de atividades diferentes que se candidatam ao prêmio de \"Melhores Empresas para se Trabalhar\", organizado pela FIA - Fundação Instituto de Administração e Você S/A. Para análise foram utilizadas técnicas diversas de mineração de dados, de escalonamento multidimensional e desenvolvidos algoritmos para o delineamento de formações gráficas da amplitude de controle e rotinas para análise da estrutura de tarefas e da tensão adaptativa entre objetivos individuais e da organização. Os resultados da pesquisa revelaram que foram identificados padrões relacionados à conectividade e interdependência interna. Especificamente, observou-se também que fatores como a amplitude de controle e tensão adaptativa entre objetivos pessoais e organizacionais também manifestaram a emergência de padrões estruturais, independente do setor de atividade.
The purpose of this dissertation is to contribute to a better understanding of organizations through the use of the concepts of the Chaos and Complexity theory. Assuming the organization as a complex adaptive system, it aims to identify patterns of organizational structure in Brazilian companies through connectivity, interdependence and diversity organizational aspects. The study entails an exploratory research in databases in 417 companies (22 economic sectors) and 118 thousands employees that applied for the award of the best companies to work for (Melhores Empresas para se Trabalhar) organized by FIA - Fundação Instituto de Administração and Você S/A. In the analysis it was used data mining techniques, multidimensional scaling and algorithms developed for the design of graphical formations, the span of control, structure and tasks and the adaptive tension between individual goals and the ones found in organizations where the employee works at. The results of the study point to patterns identified and related to organizational characteristics that denote the internal connectivity and interdependence. Structural patterns on information from different economic sectors companies were identified and related to factors such as span of control and adaptive tension between individual goals and perceived characteristics in organizations.

▼ According to Kretzschmar, the linguistics of linguistic structure can be differentiated from the linguistics of speech based on the idea of the linguistic continuum: “the continuously variable behavior of individual speakers” (Linguistics
52). In other words, language is always highly variable because people make choices (often unconsciously) about what they say or how they say it. Although living human languages are constantly shifting and are not static, speech is “not chaotic or
unmanageable”, but instead exhibits regularities across geographic and social variables (Kretzschmar, Linguistics 52). Linguistic features demonstrate a remarkable property, in that “there will be few realizations that occur very frequently, and a great
many realizations that occur only infrequently”, which, when graphed, appears as an asymptotic hyperbolic curve, or A-curve (Kretzschmar, Linguistics 83). I examine in detail twelve lexical items from existing LAMSAS survey data, and the frequency counts
of these lexical items exhibit characteristics of the A-curve, even when different subsets of the entire population are examined in isolation. Kretzschmar describes complex systems as “open and not at equilibrium,” and showing “self-organization and the
emergence of order” (Dialectology). These systems are also made up of many components interacting with one another, and they exhibit non-linear distribution as well as scaling (Kretzschmar, Dialectology). Although human language exists in many forms, it
varies systematically and conforms to the principles of the theory of complex systems.

▼ The central paradox associated with current cancer therapeutic strategies is initially effective treatment, which eliminates a high tumor cell count, consistently results in successful drug resistance. Mathematical and evolutionary modeling have previously suggested that therapeutic intervention could provide selective pressure for the expansion of resistant variants. Drug-related stress has been associated with genome
chaos, a common phenomenon in cancer characterized as rapid, stochastic genomic fragmentation and reorganization. Since cancer represents an evolutionary process, analysis within the context of genome-mediated cancer evolution can shed light on this key problem of therapeutics. We propose that genomic change is a general response to therapeutics. Drug-induced karyotypic alteration has been linked with transcriptomic elevation, implying that drug-induced genomic change would paradoxically provide an advantage for cancer cells through an increase of genome heterogeneity or evolutionary potential for selection. In vivo and in vitro models were tested using different therapeutic approaches, and surviving cells displayed altered karyotypes for each case. To determine whether drug-induced genome change could provide a long-term advantage to cancer cell survival, a karyotypically stable colon cancer cell line was treated with chemotherapy, and growth patterns were followed in a series of in vitro single-cell and population-based experiments. Outlier treated cells displayed faster growth rates than untreated cells, and population-based data support that these outliers may drive cancer progression post-therapy. This macro-evolutionary based, general mechanism of cancer drug resistance challenges the current therapeutic aim of maximizing cancer cell death and has great implications in the development and administration of future therapeutic strategies.

Systems Control and Signal Processing
Епилепсија представља најучесталији поремећај
мождане активности и испољава се изненадним и понављајућим нападима
који су последица прекомерног и синхроног електричног пражњења
великог броја неурона у мозгу које се може у већини случајева
визуелно уочити на електроенцефалограму (ЕЕГ). Обзиром да
стандардни фармаколошки начин лечења овог поремећаја врло често не
даје очекиване резутате најновија истраживања су усмерена у правцу
развоја система за директну електричну стимулацију мозга који би се
у блиској будућности могли имплантирати у лобању човека и на основу
снимљених ЕЕГ сигнала били у стању да најпре предвиде или што је
пре могуће детектују епилептични напад а затим га електричном
стимулацијом избегну или ставе под контролу односно скрате његово
трајање. Један од најкритичнијих делова једног таквог система јесте
поуздана техника за детекцију епилептиформних активности у ЕЕГ
сигналима чији резултат заправо даље иницира електричну
стимулацију. Поред тога поуздана аутоматска техника за детекцију би
омогућила и доста бржу и објективнију анализу већ снимљених ЕЕГ
сигнала што зна да буде веома напоран посао и захтева ангажовање
експерта чиме би такође и евентуалне грешке у анализи биле значајно
умањене. Главни циљ истраживања у оквиру ове докторске дисертације
јесте развој и тестирање једне нове технике за детекцију
епилептиформних активности у ЕЕГ сигналима. Нова техника је
заснована искључиво на информацијама садржаним у ЕЕГ сигналима и
покушава превазићи одређене недостатке већ постојећих техника и на
тај начин дати свој додатни допринос у овој и даље веома
атрактивној истраживачкој области. Поред пажљивог издвајања и
оптималне селекције обележја из неколико домена и клиничких
подопсега ЕЕГ сигнала као кључних корака нова техника обухвата и
пројектовање оптималног део по део квадратног класификатора чија је
тачност тестирана на сегментима ЕЕГ сигнала снимљених у Центру за
епилепсију Универзитета у Бону и који је у поређењу са већ
постојећим техникама показао прилично високу тачност и тиме
потенцијал за даље тестирање у реалним клиничким
условима.

▼ Политичке науке - Међународне студије / Political
sciences - International studies
Значајне промене у међународним односима условљене
окончањем Хладног рата јасно су указале на експланаторне и
предиктивне слабости постојећих теорија међународних односа, што се
очитовало у њиховој немогућности да ове промене на глобалном нивоу
објасне и предвиде. Утврђивање узрока, последица и суштинске
природе тих, као и актуелних промена у свету и даље је, као
последица неусаглашености ставова, предмет бројних расправа
теоретичара међународних односа. У настојању да се, сагласно
дометима савремене науке коју карактерише све екстензивнијa
интеракција различитих научних дисциплина, отклоне уочени недостаци
и разреше постојеће дилеме, давањем аргументованих одговора на нека
од питања која оптерећују теоретичаре међународних односа, у овом
истраживању су сагледана досадашња искуства и могућности за примену
теорије детерминистичког хаоса на међународне односе, пре свега на
кризе и оружане сукобе као њихов најзначајнији сегмент у периоду по
окончању Хладног рата. Унапређујући научне домете класичне физике,
чији је утемељивач Њутн, теорија детерминистичког хаоса која се
бави квалитативним изучавањем нестабилног апериодичног понашања у
детерминистичким нелинеарним динамичким системима, почела је да се
развија почетком 70‐ тих година прошлог века. Њен
интердисциплинарни и синергетски потенцијал да, уводећи иновативан
и конзистентан теоријски и методолошки приступ, створи основ за
повезивање различитих научних области и на тај начин омогући
истраживање бројних постојећих проблема на суштински другачији
начин, заснован је на специфичним теоријским моделима и
математичким алатима који се данас успешно примењују како у
природним, тако све више и у друштвеним наукама. Теорија
детерминистичког хаоса уважава системски приступ и нелинеарност као
инхерентну одлику понашања отворених и динамичких система реалног
света, за разлику од линеарног редукционизма, који је у претходном
периоду био доминантан приступ у научним истраживањима. Своју
примену ова теорија налази и у истраживању и утврђивању стварне
природе и динамике процеса који се догађају у оквиру међународних
односа. Примена теорије детерминистичког хаоса је, у овом
истраживању, примарно фокусирана на безбедносни аспект међународних
односа, као један од важних домена истраживања науке о међународним
односима. Налази истраживања примене теорије детерминистичког хаоса
на међународне односе у постхладноратовском периоду указују, пре
свега, на потребу за преиспитивањем постојећег традиционалног
оквира истраживања у овој области, али и за његовом доградњом и
осавремењавањем кроз уклапање у оквире модерне науке. Усвајањем
нових сазнања из других научних дисциплина и ширењем теоријског и
методолошког оквира истраживања друштвених феномена створио би се
основ и отворио простор за превазилажење постојећих слабости и
унапређење изграђености науке о међународним односима, а тиме и за
решавање многих актуелних, али и даље недовољно или неадекватно
истражених проблема. У том контексту, налази овог…
