JULIAN BARNES’ ENGLISH ISLANDS AS HETEROTOPI

a fundamental study of "histiriographic metafiction", and "literary genres", as introduced in "new historical philosophy", and tracing them in the works of julian barnes.

abstract a fundamental study of “historio-graphic metafiction” and “literary genres”, as introduced in “new historical philosophy”, and tracing them in the works of julian barnes having studied the two novels, the porcupine and arthur & george, by julian barnes, the researcher has applied linda hutcheon’s historio-graphic metafictional theories to them. the thesis is divided into five cha...

Barnes function as the partition function of the resolved conifold

We suggest a new strategy for proving large N duality by interpreting GromovWitten, Donaldson-Thomas and Chern-Simons invariants of a Calabi-Yau threefold as different characterizations of the same holomorphic function. For the resolved conifold this function turns out to be the quantum Barnes function, a natural qdeformation of the classical one that in its turn generalizes Euler’s gamma funct...

POWERS Julian

The Unitary Executive offers a powerful case for the historical pedigree of the unitary executive theory. Offering an account of presidential practice stemming from George Washington to George W. Bush, the book seeks to ground unitary executive theory with exhaustive historical evidence. Although the authors do not purport to present a history of the presidency, they do provide important and co...

Statement Julian

My mathematical research interests are in number theory and algebraic geometry. My thesis work concerns the arithmetic of a family of rational numbers known as multiple harmonic sums, which are truncated approximations of multiple zeta values. I explore new structures underlying relations involving multiple harmonic sums, p-adic L-values, Bernoulli numbers, and binomial coefficients. This is us...
