Two Doppler LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) systems have been operated by the Hong Kong Observaotry (HKO) at the Hong Kong International Ai rport (H KIA) for the det ection and alerting of low-level windshear to be encountered by the aircraft. The windshear al erting algorithm is based on the automatic identification of abrupt changes of headwinds along the glide paths of HKIA, which are me...

To every compatible system of Galois representations of a global field K, there is associated a natural invariant K conn , the smallest extension of K over which the associated algebraic monodromy groups become connected. We present a purely field-theoretic construction of K conn for all Galois representations arising from cohomology.

We investigate the expressive limitations of FO +poly extended with a connectivity predicate, Conn.
