Levy flights and nonlocal quantum dynamics
2013
We develop a fully fledged theory of quantum dynamical patterns of behavior that are nonlocally induced. To this end we generalize the standard Laplacian-based framework of the Schr\"{o}dinger picture quantum evolution to that employing nonlocal (pseudodifferential) operators. Special attention is paid to the Salpeter (here, $m\geq 0$) quasirelativistic equation and the evolution of various wave packets, in particular to their radial expansion in 3D. Foldy's synthesis of "covariant particle equations" is extended to encompass free Maxwell theory, which however is devoid of any "particle" content. Links with the photon wave mechanics are explored.
The Playful Affordances of Picture Book Apps for Children
2021
The tradition of children’s literature has evolved side by side with the market of children’s entertainment, games, and toys. The selection of contemporary print products includes a wide variety of materially or technologically enhanced picture books. This background is rarely considered in the examination of children’s book applications that have attracted scholarly interest after the arrival of smartphones and tablets during the early 2010s.The relationship between picture book apps, mobile games, and digital playthings requires further examination that considers the specific affordances of the mobile platform. Leaning on five case studies, this article examines how picture book apps affo…
Matka Boska z Koźla – ikona czy obraz?
2021
Dekalog zakazuje kultu obrazów. Jednak chrześcijanie zinterpretowali Wcielenie Boga w Jezusie Chrystusie jako zniesienie zakazu tworzenia obrazów. Cztery sobory powszechne wypowiedziały się na temat obrazów w Kościele. Pojęcie obrazu i ikony w pierwszym tysiącleciu chrześcijaństwa było takie samo. Chrześcijanie prawosławni zawęzili znaczenie ikony tylko do obrazu tworzonego na desce za pomocą określonej techniki i estetyki. Matka Boska z Koźla jest jednocześnie obrazem (w znaczeniu szerokim, zachodnim, katolickim), jak i ikoną (w znaczeniu wąskim, wschodnim, prawosławnym). Ikony posługują się językiem symboli i ich celem jest przypominanie o obecności świętej osoby, przedstawionej w obrazie…

Il Polar prima del Polar: il poliziesco italo-americano tra fine Ottocento e gli anni Trenta del Novecento
2018
Tra la fine dell’Ottocento e gli anni Trenta del Novecento, alcuni Italiani immigrati negli Stati Uniti – quali, fra gli altri, Bernardino Ciambelli, Italo Stanco, Garibaldi Marto Lapolla, Louis Forgione, nonché il sodalizio letterario costituito da Michael Fiaschetti e Prosper Buranelli – si sono cimentati nel genere del poliziesco con alcuni testi che, partendo da alcune delle caratteristiche tipiche del Mystery, quali la serializzazione e l’incardinamento della fabula in uno specifico contesto urbano, insieme ad alcuni degli elementi caratteriali dei personaggi dell’Hard boiled non perdono mai di vista la peculiare ‘missione’ di denuncia politica, economica e sociale. Facendo del problem…
PICTORIAL-C LANGUAGE FOR THE HERMIA-MACHINE
1992
The design and implementation of algorithms on multi-processors machines is hard. The paper describes the general features of the Pictorial C Language (PICL) that is oriented to image analysis. Its integration in the software environment of the HERMIA machine, and the handling of the related interconnecting network topology is also given.
'[I]t wasn’t in the picture and is not': Blind Spots and Vanishing Points in Irish Poetical Self-Portraits
2016
International audience; Pictoriality and a propensity for self-examination and self-representation are characteristic of the poetry of Louis MacNeice, Derek Mahon, Seamus Heaney and Paul Muldoon. In many a poem, these four contemporary Irish poets try to capture their own portraits in words and images, through highly visual poems often inspired by paintings. This paper first examines how these poets use images and invest paintings, how verbal and iconic texts interact in their creations and to what extent self-exegesis is made possible and more successful through ekphrasis. With reference to Jacques Derrida’s essay on self-portraiture—Memoirs of the Blind: Self-Portraits and Other Ruins—thi…
