TIL: On Taiwan TV, the BBC series “Doctor Who” is translated as “⁠何博士”.
博士 is simply the word for doctor (the academic degree, not a medical practitioner). But 何 is both a Chinese surname (transcribed as Ho or Hé) and an interrogative pronoun for “what” or “how”. Clever translation.
BBC and Disney use 超時空奇俠 as the Chinese title which translates as "across-time-space strange hero" and Netflix uses ⁠神秘博士 "Mysterious Doctor". 🤷

Canonical Thermodynamics
In the paper, thermodynamics of canonical systems is derived from the multinomial distribution of the occupancy numbers of quantum eigenstates. The cathegorical distribution (i.e. the one-particle distribution) on which the multinomial distribution is based, should be derived from the maximum entropy principle, but, being the multinomial distribution intractable, the paper proposes to take instead the Boltzmann distribution as cathegorical distribution, discussing the reason why the entropy of …

Codimension one distributions of degree 3 on the three-dimensional projective space
We make a classification of codimension one degree 3 distributions on the projective three space, giving possible Chern classes of the tangent sheaf and describing de zero and one dimensional components of the singular scheme of the distribution. Also, we show the existence and describe some moduli spaces of such distributions, using the concept of stability of the tangent sheaf.
