Racist Love

In Racist Love Leslie Bow traces the ways in which Asian Americans become objects of anxiety and desire. Conceptualizing these feelings as “racist love,” she explores how race is abstracted and then projected onto Asianized objects. Bow shows how anthropomorphic objects and images such as cartoon animals in children’s books, home décor and cute tchotchkes, contemporary visual art, and artificially intelligent robots function as repositories of seemingly positive feelings and attachment to Asianness. At the same time, Bow demonstrates that these Asianized proxies reveal how fetishistic attraction and pleasure serve as a source of anti-Asian bias and violence. By outlining how attraction to popular representations of Asianness cloaks racial resentment and fears of globalization, Bow provides a new means of understanding the ambivalence surrounding Asians in the United States while offering a theory of the psychological, affective, and symbolic dynamics of racist love in contemporary America.

Developments of Mathematical-Physical Biology, Matrix Mechanics in Pharmacology, and Medicine with Time Sequences

First, some mathematical and physical developments of biology and medicine are discussed, including biofield and biological electromagnetics. Second, we research nonlinear biology and biotopology, in which some knots may describe the protein folding. Third, symbolic dynamics of biology and the extensive quantum biology are researched. Fourth, we study the biothermodynamics and entropy. In thermodynamics of pharmacology, the main effects of various drugs are to promote internal interactions in body, and entropy decrease. Further, we introduce the diagnostic space, treatment space and some medicinal vectors, and propose the matrix mechanics of pharmacology. Finally, we research biology, medicine and pharmacology with time sequences. If we master the medication time, this will be able to get the minimum amount of medication, and the drugs can play the maximum treatment effect. If period is accurate, it can determine the time of play, negotiations, attack, etc. But, period of each individual should be change follow age, etc. This is a very valuable research.

Symbolic Dynamics for the Anisotropic N-Centre Problem at Negative Energies

The planar N-centre problem describes the motion of a particle moving in the plane under the action of the force fields of N fixed attractive centres: $$\begin{aligned} \ddot{x}(t)=\sum _{j=1}^N\nabla V_j(x(t)-c_j). \end{aligned}$$ x ¨ ( t ) = ∑ j = 1 N ∇ V j ( x ( t ) - c j ) . In this paper we prove symbolic dynamics at slightly negative energy for an N-centre problem where the potentials $$V_j$$ V j are positive, anisotropic and homogeneous of degree $$-\alpha _j$$ - α j : $$\begin{aligned} V_j(x)=|x|^{-\alpha _j}V_j\left( \frac{x}{|x|}\right) . \end{aligned}$$ V j ( x ) = | x | - α j V j x | x | . The proof is based on a broken geodesics argument and trajectories are extremals of the Maupertuis’ functional. Compared with the classical N-centre problem with Kepler potentials, a major difficulty arises from the lack of a regularization of the singularities. We will consider both the collisional dynamics and the non collision one. Symbols describe geometric and topological features of the associated trajectory.
