ALGEBRAIC AND LOCALLY ALGEBRAIC FUNCTORS

DUKARM, JAMES JOSEPH Simon Fraser University (Canada) 1980 해외공개박사

Many algebraic constructions can be viewed as algebra-valued functors. Using a category-theoretic formulation of universal algebra and first-order logic originated by F. W. Lawvere, we obtain algebraic and logical results concerning functors which correspond to important kinds of algebraic constructions--in particular, to Boolean powers and bounded Boolean powers. The notion of an equational interpretation of an equational theory T' in an equational theory T is introduced and shown to be the syntactical counterpart to coalgebras. By means of equational interpretations T' (--->) T, the representable functors Mod(T) (--->) Mod(T') are shown to be obtainable as T'-algebras defined "within" the underlying-set functor U(,T): Mod(T) (--->) Set when U(,T) is treated as a T-algebra in the functor category Set('MOD(T)). The algebraic functors, i.e., the representable functors G: Mod(T) (--->) Mod(T') whose set-valued component U(,T),.G is monadic, are characterized similarly. The latter result is associated with a syntactical characterization of all the equational theories T' such that Mod(T') is equivalent as a category to Mod(T). Finitary and infinitary versions of the Boolean power constructions are described as algebraic functors which correspond to Post algebras in a functor category. A functor-theoretic characterization of locally equational categories is given which is analogous to F. E. J. Linton's characterization of equational categories. The characterization of locally equational categories leads naturally to the notion of a locally algebraic functor. Bounded Boolean powers are described as locally algebraic functors, and a new proof of T. K. Hu's theorem characterizing the category of Boolean algebras as a locally equational category is sketched.

The place of the poor: Poverty, space and the politics of representation in downtown Vancouver, 1950--1997 (British Columbia)

Sommers, Jeffrey Douglas Simon Fraser University (Canada) 2001 해외박사(DDOD)

This dissertation examines the social construction of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside neighbourhood since 1950, challenging the recent narrative of urban decline which has situated the area as a skid row district where an influx of drug addicts has displaced a poor but respectable working class community, inducing a spiral of decline. Contrary to this nostalgic memory, this part of Vancouver has been labelled as skid row for at least fifty years and has been the site for an array of programs focused on ‘normalizing’ the district and its population. Such programs have institutionalized ways of looking at and talking about this part of the city that have stigmatized the place and its inhabitants, providing broad continuity between the contemporary narrative and an earlier version of skid row. In Vancouver, as elsewhere, skid row appeared in the official lexicon shortly after World War II as shorthand for the centre of the city's lodging house district. The notion of skid row combined assumptions about the isolation of and the distinction between the deserving and undeserving poor with post-War anxieties about gender roles and panic by the local elite over sagging downtown competitiveness in a narrative of decline that situated the largely impoverished, male lodging house population as the source of decay and therefore as an impediment to renewal. The programs of urban renewal, population dispersal, and individual rehabilitation justified by this narrative were only challenged with the advent of the social rebellions of the 1960s and the rise of indigenous organization. Central to this challenge was the formation of a counter-narrative that reconfigured the identity of the population and place, situating them in terms of the area's past at the interface of the urban and rural frontier industrial economy. The anomic decay of skid row was displaced by the image of a neglected, exploited but nonertheless proud community which served as a mobilizing tactic in the pursuit of neighbourhood improvement. However, this self-consciously oppositional symbolic politics of community was unable to escape the skid row narrative, which persisted as its ‘constitutive outside’. As the social geography of Vancouver shifted in the wake of the 1986 world's fair, with gentrification of old working class neighbourhoods and the massive residential redevelopments on the once-industrial peripheries of the CBD, the Downtown Eastside is once more cast as a marginal skid row district with a population that threatens the well-being of Vancouver's downtown.

After the end/s: CanLit and the unravelling of nation, "race," and space in the writing of Michael Ondaatje, Daphne Marlatt, and Roy Kiyooka

Lowry, Glen Albert Simon Fraser University (Canada) 2001 해외박사(DDOD)

In the 1980s, as discourses of nation and literature came under attack, the study of Canadian literature (CanLit) entered a state of crisis. Theorists from various critical perspectives argued that socio-political changes to “the nation” necessitated reconsideration of the role of literature in Canada. New modes of writing and shifting reading practices presented scholars with the problem of thinking through the conceptual and methodological limits of the discipline. During this period, critical self-reflexivity became a crucial aspect of literary studies. Shifting focus onto writing from “marginalized” writers, scholars of feminist, postmodern, multicultural, and postcolonial literatures challenged conventional reading practices. White increased attention to writing by women, queer-identified writers, First Nations writers, and writers of colour mitigated the crisis, it left problematic structures intact, allowing the undisclosed legacies of an earlier nationalism to continue exerting undo influence on critical discourse. To address the impasse in CanLit, critics might adapt Henri Lefebvre's model of social space, in which culture is described as a reflection of space and an element in its production. For Lefebvre, studying representations of space (cultural expression) presupposes analysis of the representational spaces through which they circulate (institutions and institutional practices). Applying Lefebvre's logic to literary nationalism as a representational enterprise (fact and process), critics might reformulate CanLit as a problem of texts and contexts, thereby keeping it open as an unfinished critical project. To this end, the work of Michael Ondaatje, Daphne Marlatt, and Roy Kiyooka is vital. Specific publications from the late 1980s—Ondaatje's <italic> In the Skin of a Lion</italic> (1987), Marlatt's <italic>Ana Historic</italic> (1988), and Ktyooka's <italic>October's Piebald Skies & Other Lacunae </italic> (1988)—focus on zones of conflict at the limits of national identity. In particular, the reception of these texts foregrounds the role contradictory identity formations play in the transformation CanLit qua social space. Taken together, these texts provide an opportunity to re-assess the future of CanLit and to locate its undisclosed limits, especially around the discourses of “race.” In the contexts they generate, “the nation” remains a site of contradiction and contestation—a trauma prefiguring the current crisis, not yet contained by it.

Molecular Characterization of Double-Stranded (DS) RNAs in Chalara Elegans and Biological Effects on the Fungus

박윤정 Simon Fraser University 2004 해외박사

Molecular characterization of partial and full-length cDNA clones from double-stranded (ds) RNA elements in Chalara elegans was accomplished. The cDNA clones derived from a 5.3 kb dsRNA fragment present in several strains of C. elegans showed nucleotide sequence homology to viruses belonging to Totiviridae. The cDNA clones derived from a 2.8 kb dsRNA fragment in strains BK18 and WASH revealed nucleotide sequence homology to the Mitovirus group. Two cDNA clones derived from a 12 kb dsRNA fragment in strain NC1527 revealed no significant sequence homology to any known virus group. These results suggest the occurrence of at least three different virus groups in C. elegans. The genetic relatedness among dsRNA fragments in C. elegans strains was determined using Northern blot and cDNA sequence analysis. The clones derived from a 2.8 kb dsRNA fragment cross-hybridized with 2.8 kb dsRNA fragments occurring in C. elegans strains from diverse geographic regions worldwide. However, the cDNA clones derived from either a 5.3 kb or 12 kb dsRNA fragment cross-hybridized only with the similar-sized dsRNA fragments, mainly in strains originating from same geographic regions. Sequence analysis of the full-length cDNA clone from the 2.8 kb fragment showed the presence of one large open reading frame (ORF 1), when the mitochondrial genetic code was used. The ORF 1 contained RdRp conserved motifs present in other mitochondrial RNA viruses. This dsRNA fragment copurified with mitochondria and named Chalara elegans 18 virus (Ce18V), a new mitovirus. A latently-infected strain (BK18C) which was obtained by high temperature incubation of 2.8 kb dsRNA-containing strain (BK18) for 2-3 months showed enhanced pathogenicity on carrots, but no differences in culture morphology or various enzymatic assays was detected. A full-length cDNA clone of the 5.3 kb dsRNA fragment in strain CKP was also obtained. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of three ORFs, which shared some homology either to the coat protein or RdRp regions of Totiviridae. Partial cDNA clones were obtained from additional dsRNA fragments in strain CKP which shared some homology to the RdRp regions of Totivirus, suggesting coinfection by two distinctive totivirus-like dsRNAs in strain CKP of C. elegans. Results from this study demonstrate the presence of diverse novel dsRNA elements in C. elegans with differing biological effects.

Universal phonological processes : a theoretical analysis of dissimilation, cluster simplification, and their synergy for consonant cluster reduction in romance and indoeuropean languages

김형수 Simon Fraser University 1990 해외박사

본 논문은 로망스와 인구어내에서 일어나는 이화작용과 자음군 탈락현상을 이론음 운학(Theoretical Phonology)의 공통음운과정(universal phonological process)개념하 에 분석한 것이다. 이 두 음운현상은 이미 학계에 잘 알져진 것들이지만 자료해석의 어려움과 공통음운과정개념이 지니는 음운현상의 보편적 설명에서의 역활에 대한 종전 의 이해부족으로 여지껏 체계적인 해설을 받지 못해온 실정이다. 이 논문에서는 이 두 음운과정들이 이론음운학의 원칙하에서 선별적인 음운규칙적용과 관성음운변화원칙에 준한 음운변천의 정연성을 보여주는 등 체계적으로 설명된다고 주장한다. 제 1장에서 는 공통음운과정, 관성음운변화원칙, 파라미터(parameter)상에서의 상대성음운강도등 이론음운학에서 사용되는 여러 개념들을 소개한다. 공통음운과정의 한 예로서는 서게 르만어, 이태리어, 동·반투어군에 속하는 루간다어등에 나타나는 자음중복현상(conso nant gemination)을 분석해 보인다. 제 2장은 음운의 약화현상에 속하는 자음군 탈락 현상을 분석한다. 먼저 전통적으로 자음군 탈락의 예로 제시된 것들의 상당수가 실제 로는 이 음운과정에 속하지 않는 사이비 탈락(pseudo-simplification)임을 보인 후 자 음군 탈락현상이 아래의 3원칙하에서 일어난다고 주장한다. 첫째, 음운강도가 약한 자 음이 강한 자음보다 먼저 탈락한다. 둘째, 음운강도가 강한 자음군보다 약한 자음군에 자음군탈락현상이 먼저 일어난다. 셋째, 긴 자음군이 짧은 자음군보다 먼저 축소한 다. 제 3장과 제 4장은 이화작용현상을 분석한다. 특히 그라스만의 법칙(Grassmann's L aw)을 인구어에서 일어나는 음절중복현상(reduplication)에 적용하여 기존의 이화작용 자료를 확대제시하고 해석하여 로망스 및 인구어내에서 일어나는 다양한 이화작용규칙 들을 음운상호간의 강도변전(strength fluxion)으로 해석하여 다음의 두 공통조건하에 서 설명한다. 첫째, 이화작용은 작용대상이 되는 두자음이 서로 충분히 비슷할 때 일 어난다. 둘째, 이화작용은 작용대상이 되는 두 자음과 그 사이에 오는 것이 서로 충분 히 다를 때 일어난다. 또한 종래 이화작용으로 간주되어 온 KCK →CK류의 자음군 축소 규칙도 이 장에서 분석한다. 이 규칙들은 겉으로는 이화현상처럼 보이면서도 실제로는 상술한 이화작용의 공통조건들을 충족시키지 못하는 반면 2장에서 제시한 자음군 탈 락 3원칙으로도 적절히 설명되지 않아 문제를 제기한다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 문제점 들은 음운과정간의 상호협력을 의미하는 시네르기아(Synergia) 개념하에서 체계적으로 설명된다고 주장한다. 제 5장에서는 상술한 분석을 요약 설명하고 자음군 축소현상 과 이화 작용이 이론음운학의 공통음운과정개념하에서 체계적으로 분석되며 KCK →CK 류의 자음군 축소현상은 음운을 약화시키는 기능을 가진 이 두 음운과정간의 시네르기 아 작용의 결과라고 결론짓는다.
