In some regimes, the dynamics of black branes can be captured by an effective hydrodynamic description.

The fieldwork on which this dissertation is based was done in Sri Lanka from 1984 to 1986 when the critique of the of the anthropologist as 'Knower of the Other' was surfacing in the literature (Fabian, 1983, Clifford and Marcus, 1986, Marcus and Fisher 1986). When I returned from the field most works of this genre were generally unknown in Adelaide. However, I began by writing with the insights of Bakhtin who himself had inspired central dimensions of the burgeoning critique of anthropological practice.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the merging of horizons which occurs when a black hole crosses a cosmological horizon. We study the simplest spacetime which has both a black hole and cosmological horizon, namely Schwarzschild-deSitter (SdS) spacetime. First we develop a new coordinate system for SdS spacetime, which allows us to properly illustrate and analyze the merging of horizons. We then use a combination of numerical and analytical methods to study the structure of the merging horizons, including the null generators which make up the horizon, as well as the presence of caustic points on the hor

In this thesis we present a new aspect pertaining to the eﬀective field theory of general relativity in the limit of a large number D of dimensions. We demonstrate that the theory initially developed to capture the physics of asymptotically flat branes also contains a new family of localized solutions that can be identified with higher dimensional black holes such as the Schwarzschild-Thangerlini or the Myers-Perry black holes in the limit of a large number of spacetime dimensions. Using this technique we have explored several new aspects of these black hole solutions. We show that the eﬀe

Abstract:

This thesis is devoted to the study of geometric aspects of black holes and integrable structures in string theory. In the first part, symmetries of the horizon and its bulk extension will be investigated. We investigate the horizon conjecture beyond the supergravity approximation, by considering alpha prime corrections of heterotic supergravity in perturbation theory, and show that standard global techniques can no longer be applied. A sufficient condition to establish the horizon conjecture will be identified. As a consequence of our analysis, we find a no-go theorem for AdS2 backgrounds in

In the early 1990's, I argued that the real issues, those at the crux of tourism impact problems, were not being addressed - pertinent questions ignored amidst the blossoming euphoria of green rhetoric. A process emerged in tourism development whereby ego-enhancing, politically correct sound bites drowned out the voice of reason, namely common sense. Wonderfully self-satisfying, this proved a smug and timely convenience as politicians, planners, 'travellers' and increasingly (even) many tourism academics appeared to see problems without answers as an anathema.

To explain the function of myth, a case study of Kosovo has been conducted. Much scholarly debate on the nature of internationally contested states exists, but we will make the argument that Kosovo is best understood as a being

In this work, various machine learning algorithms are compared in the context of dynamic pricing. These algorithms include the Kalman filter, artificial neural networks, particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithms. The majority of these algorithms have been modified to handle

This thesis explores two avenues into understanding the physics of black holes and horizons beyond general relativity, via analogue models and Lorentz violating theories. Analogue spacetimes have wildly different dynamics to general relativity; this means time-independent black hole solutions have fewer symmetries, allowing the possibility of non-Killing horizons in stationary solutions. Surface gravity is one of the most important quantities characterizing black holes, with many physically distinct definitions. In the case of non-Killing horizons these different definitions of surface gravity

Abstract:

It has been established in a vast number of financial and econometric literature that financial and macroeconomic variables such as dividend-price ratio and term spread forecast aggregate stock market returns at both short and long horizons in many developed and emerging economies. Using financial ratios and macroeconomic variables, Rapach and Wohar (2006) report in-sample and out-of-sample evidence of predictability of future excess stock returns. However, contrary results are reported in the literature such as Welch and Goyal (2008). It is argued that regressions analysis produced poorly pre

Abstract:

Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar, sob uma perspectiva historiográfica, as ideias linguísticas de Julio Gonçalves Moreira (1854-1911) no que se refere aos conceitos de sintaxe popular do português. Para tanto, fundamentado em pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da História das Ideias Linguísticas, conforme o modelo de Sylvain Auroux (1992, 2008), o trabalho apresenta o horizonte de retrospecção, bem como o horizonte de prospecção relativos à obra e ao filólogo português.

Abstract:

This dissertation consists of an introductory chapter and four papers dealing with financial issues of open economies, which can be in two broad categorizations: 1) exchange rate movements and 2) stock market interdependence. The first paper covers how the exchange rate changes affect the prices of internationally traded goods. With the variables (the price of exports in exporters’ currency and the exchange rate, both of which are in logarithmic form) being cointegrated, a model with both long- and short-run characteristics (the Error Correction Model, ECM) is formulated. By using prices of ma

Reposant sur l’expérience uruguayenne (1985/2015), prenant en compte un contexte de mondialisation, notre thèse vise à problématiser, au prisme d’une philosophie politique critique, une citoyenneté nommée diasporique, déployée aux interstices des États-nation, émergeant au travers de processus migratoires, de l’exil et de l’interconnexion de communautés diasporiques.Sous l’éclairage des philosophies de la citoyenneté nous cartographions cette singulière citoyenneté se déployant en scénarios transnationaux et processus interactifs, dans lesquels interviennent différentes catégories d’acteurs.Ai

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the issue of intercultural understanding. I explore the role played by language in constituting human subjectivity in accordance with the common insights of Ludwig Wittgenstein, Martin Heidegger, and Mikhail Mikhailovich Bakhtin, in order to: (1) affirm the complexity and fragility of the process of building understanding in fight of our immersion in specific cultural-linguistic worldviews; and (2) demonstrate that human beings are ontologically predisposed to achieve understanding, and that this ontological predisposition is enhanced by a constant and inescapable pr
