推翻表征思想 建立游牧思想——精神分裂症分析方法研究

德勒兹和加塔里精神分裂症分析理论与精神分析理论之间是一种在断裂的基础上发展的关系。聚焦于二者的指导思想和方法的差异,特别关照精神分裂症分析的独特思想和思维主张及其生成过程,可详细解读其游牧式或曰“根茎式”的新理念。     

性别身份与舞台表现——从《欲望号街车》到《美梦重圆》

性别身份,尤其是同性恋身份所具有的社会政治色彩决定了不同时代的剧作家在处理这一题材时采用不同的舞台表现形式。《欲望号街车》采用了象征手法,充分利用舞台上的资源———灯光、音乐、枪声、回忆、幻觉等来暗示自杀的同性恋丈夫对妻子留下的道义上的内疚与自责。对《欲望号街车》的重写剧作《美梦重圆》则采用“异装”、戏中戏等形式大胆直白地表达这一主题。两剧对同性恋身份舞台表现形式的不同不仅带有特定历史时期的烙印,而且渗透了剧作家不同的审美价值取向。

Using a Markov Chain to Construct a Tractable Approximation of an Intractable Probability Distribution

Abstract.  Let π denote an intractable probability distribution that we would like to explore. Suppose that we have a positive recurrent, irreducible Markov chain that satisfies a minorization condition and has π as its invariant measure. We provide a method of using simulations from the Markov chain to construct a statistical estimate of π from which it is straightforward to sample. We show that this estimate is 'strongly consistent' in the sense that the total variation distance between the estimate and π converges to 0 almost surely as the number of simulations grows. Moreover, we use some recently developed asymptotic results to provide guidance as to how much simulation is necessary. Draws from the estimate can be used to approximate features of π or as intelligent starting values for the original Markov chain. We illustrate our methods with two examples.     

On the Distance Between Cumulative Sum Diagram and Its Greatest Convex Minorant for Unequally Spaced Design Points

Abstract.  The supremum difference between the cumulative sum diagram, and its greatest convex minorant (GCM), in case of non-parametric isotonic regression is considered. When the regression function is strictly increasing, and the design points are unequally spaced, but approximate a positive density in even a slow rate ( n ^−1/3), then the difference is shown to shrink in a very rapid (close to n ^−2/3) rate. The result is analogous to the corresponding result in case of a monotone density estimation established by Kiefer and Wolfowitz, but uses entirely different representation. The limit distribution of the GCM as a process on the unit interval is obtained when the design variables are i.i.d. with a positive density. Finally, a pointwise asymptotic normality result is proved for the smooth monotone estimator, obtained by the convolution of a kernel with the classical monotone estimator.     

Rate of strong uniform convergence of k-NN density estimates

Let f_n(x) be the univariate k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) density estimate proposed by Loftsgaarden and Quesenberry (1965). By using similar techniques as in Bahadur's representation of sample quantiles (1966), and by the recent results on the oscillation of empirical processes by Stute (1982), we derive the rate of strong uniform convergence of f_n(x) on some suitably chosen interval J_δ. Some comparison with the kernel estimates is given, as well as the choice of the bandwidth sequence relative to the sample size.     

Copules archimédiennes et families de lois bidimensionnelles dont les marges sont données

Every bivariate distribution function with continuous marginals can be represented in terms of a unique copula, that is, in terms of a distribution function on the unit square with uniform marginals. This paper is concerned with a special class of copulas called Archimedean, which includes the uniform representation of many standard bivariate distributions. Conditions are given under which these copulas are stochastically ordered and pointwise limits of sequences of Archimedean copulas are examined. We also provide two new one-parameter families of bivariate distributions which include as limiting cases the Frechet bounds and the independence distribution.     

单李代数不可约表示的标记

对于n秩单李代数g,当采用Dynkin关于素根的分类时,其不可约表示可以用n个非负整数Λ_(αi)标记,也可通过初等表示的权用数组li来标记。利用Cartan逆矩阵,我们给出了计算Λ_(α_i)与li之间关系的方法。对于B_n、C_n、D_n和F_4,利用Cartan逆矩阵证明了这些li是与采用Cartan关于素根的分类时的Λi是一致的。     

Changes in the Political Iconography of East Central European Capitals after 1989 (Berlin,Warsaw, Prague,Bratislava)

The fall of communism in 1989/1990 has led not only to the establishment of new political systems and ideologies, but also to significant modifications in the visual self-representation of the respective states in Eastern and East Central Europe. Statues of communist heroes were abolished and replaced by monuments and memorials reflecting the new political situation. New state buildings were erected, and the old ones remodelled and adapted to the representational needs of the new authorities. In some cases, the political changes even have had a strong impact on principles of city planning, effecting urban structures of symbolic value.

The focal points of these developments are the capital cities, being principal places of the execution of state power as well as of its self-representation. However, the conditions for the staging of the state in the capital are in each case different. They depend on one hand on the architectural shape and historic role of the city, and on the political situation and self-image of the state on the other.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the changes in the political iconography of four East Central European capitals—Berlin, Warsaw, Prague and Bratislava—since 1989, focusing on selected monuments, architectural projects for state institutions and concepts of town planning.     

“说”出集体性——口述性（orality）与20世纪40年代的解放区小说

20世纪40年代解放区小说中,经常出现一种作为情节生产者的"非角色化"叙述者,和作为假想主体的"情境外"叙述接受者,二者之间的遥相呼应完成了叙事传达和接受的想象交流。这种叙述者和叙述接受者之间口述性的共时交流成功地使这类作品易于为农村普通读者接受。口述性的仪式化结构更为解放区作家虚拟了一种"集体性"景象,并为他们提供了使之合法化的叙述工具。
