Integrable Highest Weight Representations of Affine Lie algebras#
In this section \(\mathfrak{g}\) can be an arbitrary Kac-Moody Lie Algebra made with a symmetrizable, indecomposable Cartan matrix.
Suppose that \(V\) is a representation with a weight space decomposition as in Roots and Weights. Let \(\alpha\) be a real root, and let \(\mathfrak{g}_\alpha\) be the corresponding root space, that is, the one-dimensional weight space for \(\alpha\) in the adjoint representation of \(\mathfrak{g}\) on itself. Then \(-\alpha\) is also a root. The two one-dimensional spaces \(\mathfrak{g}_\alpha\) and \(\mathfrak{g}_{-\alpha}\) generate a Lie algebra isomorphic to \(\mathfrak{sl}_2\). The module \(V\) is called integrable if for each such \(\alpha\) the representation of \(\mathfrak{sl}_2\) obtained this way integrates to a representation of the Lie group \(\operatorname{SL}_2\). Since this group contains an element that stabilizes \(\mathfrak{h}\) and induces the corresponding simple reflection on the weight lattice, integrability implies that the weight multiplicities are invariant under the action of the Weyl group.
If the Kac-Moody Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{g}\) is finite-dimensional
then the integrable highest weight representations are
just the irreducible finite-dimensional ones. For a general
Kac-Moody Lie algebra the integrable highest weight representations
are the analogs of the finite-dimensional ones, that is,
with WeylCharacterRing
elements. Their
theory has many aspects in common with the finite-dimensional
representations of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras,
such as the parametrization by dominant weights, and
generalizations of the Weyl denominator and character
formulas, due to Macdonald and Kac respectively.
If \(\Lambda\) is a dominant weight, then the irreducible highest weight module \(L(\Lambda)\) defined in Roots and Weights is integrable. Moreover every highest weight integrable representation arises this way, so these representations are in bijection with the cone \(P^+\) of dominant weights.
The affine case#
Now we assume that \(\mathfrak{g}\) is affine. The integrable highest weight representations (and their crystals) are extremely interesting. Integrable highest weight representations of \(\mathfrak{g}\) arise in a variety of contexts, from string theory to the modular representation theory of the symmetric groups, and the theory of modular forms. The representation \(L(\Lambda_0)\) is particularly ubiquitous and is called the basic representation.
Therefore in [KMPS] (published in 1990) tabulated data for many of these representations. They wrote
We present a vast quantity of numerical data in tabular form, this being the only source for such information. The computations are tedious and not particularly straightforward when it is necessary to carry them out individually. We hope the appearance of this book will spur interest in a field that has become, in barely 20 years, deeply rewarding and full of promise for the future. It would indeed be gratifying if these tables were to appear to the scientists of 2040 as obsolete as the dust-gathering compilations of transcendental functions appear for us today because of their availability on every pocket calculator.
As we will explain, Sage can reproduce the contents of these tables. Moreover the tables in [KMPS] are limited to the untwisted types, but Sage also implements the twisted types.
Although Sage can reproduce the tables in the second volume of [KMPS], the work remains very useful. The first volume is a down-to-earth and very helpful exposition of the theory of integrable representations of affine Lie algebras with explicit examples and explanations of the connections with mathematical physics and vertex operators.
The support of an integrable highest weight representation#
Let \(\Lambda \in P^+\) and let \(V = L(\Lambda)\) be the integrable representation with highest weight \(\Lambda\). If \(\mu\) is another weight, let \(\operatorname{mult}(\mu)\) denote the multiplicity of the weight \(\mu\) in \(L(\Lambda)\). Define the support of the representation \(\operatorname{supp}(V)\) to be the set of \(\mu\) such that \(\operatorname{mult}(\mu) > 0\).
If \(\operatorname{mult}(\mu) > 0\) then \(\lambda-\mu\) is a linear combination of the simple roots with nonnegative integer coefficients. Moreover \(\operatorname{supp}(V)\) is contained in the paraboloid
where \((\, | \,)\) is the invariant inner product on the weight lattice and \(\rho\) is the Weyl vector (Untwisted Affine Kac-Moody Lie Algebras). Moreover if \(\mu \in \operatorname{supp}(V)\) then \(\Lambda - \mu\) is an element of the root lattice \(Q\) ([Kac], Propositions 11.3 and 11.4).
We organize the weight multiplicities into sequences called string functions or strings as follows. By [Kac], Proposition 11.3 or Corollary 11.9, for fixed \(\mu\) the function \(\operatorname{mult}(\mu - k\delta)\) of \(k\) is an increasing sequence. We adjust \(\mu\) by a multiple of \(\delta\) to the beginning of the positive part of the sequence. Thus we define \(\mu\) to be maximal if \(\operatorname{mult}(\mu) \neq 0\) but \(\operatorname{mult}(\mu + \delta) = 0\).
Since \(\delta\) is fixed under the action of the affine Weyl group, and since the weight multiplicities are Weyl group invariant, the function \(k \mapsto \operatorname{mult}(\mu - k \delta)\) is unchanged if \(\mu\) is replaced by \(w(\mu)\) for some Weyl group element \(w\). Now every Weyl orbit contains a dominant weight. Therefore in enumerating the string we may assume that the weight \(\mu\) is dominant. There are only a finite number of dominant maximal weights. Thus there are only a finite number of such strings to be computed.
Modular Forms#
Remarkably, [KacPeterson] showed that each string is the set of Fourier coefficients of a weakly holomorphic modular form; see also [Kac] Chapters 12 and 13. Here weakly holomorphic modular means that the form is allowed to have poles at cusps.
To this end we define the modular characteristic
Here \(k = (\Lambda | \delta)\) is the level of the representation and \(h^\vee\) is the dual Coxeter number (Labels and Coxeter Number). If \(\mu\) is a weight, define
Let \(\Lambda\) be a weight, which we may assume maximal. Then Kac and Peterson defined the string function
Although these do arise as partition functions in string theory, the term “string” here does not refer to physical strings.
The string function \(c_\mu^\Lambda\) is a weakly holomorphic modular form, possibly of half-integral weight. See [Kac], Corollary 13.10, or [KacPeterson]. It can have poles at infinity, but multiplying \(c_\mu^\Lambda\) by \(\eta(\tau)^{\dim\,\mathfrak{g}^\circ}\) gives a holomorphic modular form (for some level). Here \(\eta\) is the Dedekind eta function:
The weight of this modular form \(\eta(\tau)^{\dim\,\mathfrak{g}^\circ} c^\Lambda_\lambda\) is the number of positive roots of \(\mathfrak{g}^\circ\).
Sage methods for integrable representations#
In this section we will show how to use Sage to compute with
integrable highest weight representations of affine Lie algebras.
For further documentation, see the reference manual
IntegrableRepresentation
.
In the following example, we work with the integrable representation
with highest weight \(2 \Lambda_0\) for \(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2\),
that is, \(A_1^{(1)}\). First we create a dominant weight in
the extended weight lattice, then create the IntegrableRepresentation
class. We compute the strings. There are two, since there are two
dominant maximal weights. One of them is the highest weight \(2\Lambda_0\),
and the other is \(2\Lambda_1 - \delta\):
sage: L = RootSystem("A1~").weight_lattice(extended=True)
sage: Lambda = L.fundamental_weights()
sage: delta = L.null_root()
sage: W = L.weyl_group(prefix="s")
sage: s0, s1 = W.simple_reflections()
sage: V = IntegrableRepresentation(2*Lambda[0])
sage: V.strings()
{2*Lambda[0]: [1, 1, 3, 5, 10, 16, 28, 43, 70, 105, 161, 236],
2*Lambda[1] - delta: [1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 21, 35, 55, 86, 130, 196, 287]}
sage: mw1, mw2 = V.dominant_maximal_weights(); mw1, mw2
(2*Lambda[0], 2*Lambda[1] - delta)
We see there are two dominant maximal weights, \(2 \Lambda_0\) and \(2 \Lambda_1 - \delta\). We obtain every maximal weight from these by applying Weyl group elements. These lie inside the paraboloid described in The support of an integrable highest weight representation. Here are a few more maximal weights:
sage: pairs = [(s0*s1*s0, mw1), (s0*s1, mw2), (s0, mw1), (W.one(), mw2),
....: (W.one(), mw1), (s1, mw2), (s1*s0, mw1), (s1*s0*s1, mw2)]
sage: [w.action(mw) for (w, mw) in pairs]
[-6*Lambda[0] + 8*Lambda[1] - 8*delta,
-4*Lambda[0] + 6*Lambda[1] - 5*delta,
-2*Lambda[0] + 4*Lambda[1] - 2*delta,
2*Lambda[1] - delta,
2*Lambda[0],
4*Lambda[0] - 2*Lambda[1] - delta,
6*Lambda[0] - 4*Lambda[1] - 2*delta,
8*Lambda[0] - 6*Lambda[1] - 5*delta]
We confirm that the string function for one in the Weyl orbit
is the same as that for mw2
, calculated above:
sage: s1.action(mw2)
4*Lambda[0] - 2*Lambda[1] - delta
sage: [V.mult(s0.action(mw2)-k*delta) for k in [0..10]]
[1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 21, 35, 55, 86, 130, 196]
String functions of integrable representations often appear in the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences:
sage: [oeis(x) for x in V.strings().values()] # optional - internet
[0: A233758: Bisection of A006950 (the even part).,
0: A233759: Bisection of A006950 (the odd part).]
Reading what the OEIS tells us about the sequence OEIS sequence A006950, we learn that the two strings are the odd and even parts of the series
This is not a modular form because of the factor \(q^{1/8}\) in front of the ratio of eta functions.
Let us confirm what the Online Encyclopedia tells us by computing the above product:
sage: PS.<q> = PowerSeriesRing(QQ)
sage: prod([(1+q^(2*k-1))/(1-q^(2*k)) for k in [1..20]])
1 + q + q^2 + 2*q^3 + 3*q^4 + 4*q^5 + 5*q^6 + 7*q^7 + 10*q^8
+ 13*q^9 + 16*q^10 + 21*q^11 + 28*q^12 + 35*q^13 + 43*q^14
+ 55*q^15 + 70*q^16 + 86*q^17 + 105*q^18 + 130*q^19 + O(q^20)
We see the values of the two strings interspersed in this product, with the \(2 \Lambda_0\) string values in the even positions and the \(2 \Lambda_1 - \delta\) values in the odd positions.
To compute \(c^{2\Lambda_0}_\lambda\), which is guaranteed to be a modular form, we must compute the modular characteristics. We are interested in the cases where \(\lambda\) is one of the two dominant maximal weights:
sage: [V.modular_characteristic(x) for x in [2*Lambda[0], 2*Lambda[1]-delta]]
[-1/16, 7/16]
This gives us the string functions
These are both weakly holomorphic modular forms. Any linear combination of these two is also a weakly holomorphic modular form. For example we may replace \(\tau\) by \(\tau/2\) in our previous identity and get
Many more examples may be found in [KacPeterson] and [KMPS].
Let \(V\) be the integrable highest weight representation with highest weight \(\Lambda\). If \(\mu\) is in the support of \(V\) then \(\Lambda - \mu\) is of the form \(\sum_i n_i\alpha_i\) where \(\alpha_i\) are the simple roots. Sage employs an internal representation of the weights as tuples \((n_0, n_1, \ldots)\). You can convert weights to and from this notation as follows:
sage: L = RootSystem(['E',6,2]).weight_lattice(extended=True)
sage: Lambda = L.fundamental_weights()
sage: delta = L.null_root()
sage: V = IntegrableRepresentation(Lambda[0])
sage: V.strings()
{Lambda[0]: [1, 2, 7, 14, 35, 66, 140, 252, 485, 840, 1512, 2534]}
sage: V.to_weight((1,2,0,1,0))
Lambda[0] - 3*Lambda[1] + 4*Lambda[2] - 2*Lambda[3] + Lambda[4] - delta
sage: V.from_weight(Lambda[0] - 3*Lambda[1] + 4*Lambda[2] - 2*Lambda[3] + Lambda[4] - delta)
(1, 2, 0, 1, 0)
sage: V.from_weight(Lambda[0]-delta)
(1, 2, 3, 2, 1)
In reporting the strings, one may set the optional parameter depth to get more or fewer values. In certain cases even the first coefficient of the string is significant. See [JayneMisra2014] and [KimLeeOh2017].
Catalan numbers (OEIS sequence A000108):
sage: P = RootSystem(['A',12,1]).weight_lattice(extended=true)
sage: Lambda = P.fundamental_weights()
sage: IntegrableRepresentation(2*Lambda[0]).strings(depth=1) # long time

  However it is great practice to be able to do it yourself.
Preheat the oven to 240C/450F/Gas 8 (220C fan).
Place the chicken breast-side down on a chopping board and using a good pair of scissors cut along each side of the backbone to remove it, cutting through the ribs as you go.  There will be a small crack which means the bird will then be nice and flat. Then put the bird, breast-side up in a roasting tin.
Use the tip of a small sharp knife to put enough slits all over the breast and legs as there are garlic slices and then push the garlic slices into them. Drizzle with the oil, season well with salt and pepper and then pop into the oven for 30 minutes to get some colour on the skin.
Meanwhile, mix the mustard, honey, chilli powder and thyme leaves together in a small bowl and set aside.
After 30 minutes of cooking, pull the bird out of the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 200C/400F/Gas 6 (180C fan). To help cool the oven down quickly, you can open the oven door and once the thermostat’s red light comes back on shut it. Meanwhile, smear the chicken with the mustard mixture using the back of a spoon. Once the temperature is correct, pop the chicken back into the oven for a further 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, for the sweet potato and mint mash, boil the sweet potatoes for about eight minutes or so (depending on the size of the chunks), or until the potatoes are just tender but not too soft. A couple of minutes before they are ready, melt the butter in a small frying pan on a medium heat and cook the spring onions for two minutes, stirring until softened. Drain the cooked potatoes well and then mash well with a masher. Stir in the spring onions and butter and season well with salt and pepper. Pop a lid on to keep it warm.
To check that the chicken is cooked, insert a sharp knife into the thickest part of the leg, then press the knife down a bit. If the juices run clear, and are not pink, then the chicken is cooked. Once cooked, lift the chicken out of the tray and place on a warmed platter or board and cover with aluminium foil to keep warm.
For the gravy, holding the roasting tin with an oven cloth, tip it up until all the fat and juices run to one corner.  You should be left with around three tablespoons of juices in the bottom of the tin. Pop it on the hob over a low heat and stir in the flour until well blended. Add the wine and stock a little at a time, stirring all the time so that it does not go lumpy. Once all the liquid is added, bring the mixture to the boil and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until thickened, stirring regularly. Pour through a fine sieve into a warmed jug and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Carve the chicken, arrange the slices on a large serving platter and garnish with fresh thyme sprigs. Spoon the sweet potato mash into a serving bowl and scatter the mint over. Serve at once with the hot gravy.

I've been hanging out in the [#mercurial][hg-irc] and [#bitbucket][bb-irc]
channels on freenode a lot lately, and I've noticed a topic that comes up a
lot is "how does [Mercurial][hg]'s branching differ from [git][]'s branching?"

A while ago [Nick Quaranto][nick] and I were talking about Mercurial and git's
branching models on Twitter and I wrote out a [quick longreply][lreply] about
the main differences. Since then I've pointed some git users toward that post
and they seemed to like it, so I figured I'd turn it into something a bit more
detailed.
**Disclaimer:** this post is not intended to be a guide to the commands used
for working with Mercurial. It is only meant to be a guide to the *concepts*
behind the branching models. For more information on daily use and commands,
the [hg book][book] is a great resource (if you find it useful, please
[buy][book-buy] a paper copy to support Bryan and have a printed copy of the
[best editing fail of all time][editfail]).

[TOC]
Prologue
--------
Before I start explaining the different branching models, here's a simple
repository I'll use as an example:
![Basic Repository Diagram](/media/images{{ parent_url }}/branch-base.png "Basic Repository")
The repository is in the `~/src/test-project` folder. It has three changesets
in it: numbers 0, 1 and 2.
**For git users:** each changeset in a Mercurial repository has a hash as an
identifier, just like with git. However, Mercurial also assigns numbers to
each changeset in a repository. The numbers are *only* for that local
repository -- two clones might have different numbers assigned to different
changesets depending on the order of pulls/pushes/etc. They're just there for
convenience while you're working with a repository.
The default branch name in Mercurial is "default". Don't worry about what that
means for now, we'll get to it. I'm mentioning it because there's a little
`default` marker in the diagram.
In all of these diagrams, a marker like that with a dashed border doesn't
actually exist as an object anywhere. Those are special names that you can use
to identify a changeset instead of the hash or number -- Mercurial will
calculate the revision on the fly.
For now, ignore the `default` marker. I've colored it grey in each of the
diagrams where it doesn't matter.
Branching with Clones
---------------------
The slowest, safest way to create a branch with Mercurial is to make a new
clone of the repository:
:::console
$ cd ~/src
$ hg clone test-project test-project-feature-branch
Now you've got two copies of the repository. You can commit separately in each
one and push/pull changesets between them as often as you like. Once you've
made some changes in each one, the result might look like this:
![Clone Diagram](/media/images{{ parent_url }}/branch-clone.png "Branching with Clones")
We've got two copies of the repository. Both contain the changesets that
existed at the time we branched/cloned. If we push from `test-project` into
`test-project-feature-branch` the "Fix a critical bug" changeset will be
pushed over.
**For git users:** Remember how I mentioned that the changeset numbers are
local to a repository? We can see this clearly here -- there are two different
changesets with the number 3. The numbers are *only* used while working inside
a single repository. For pushing, pulling, or talking to other people you
should use the hashes.
### Advantages
Cloning is a very safe way of creating a branch. The two repositories are
completely isolated until you push or pull, so there's no danger of breaking
anything in one branch when you're working in another.
Discarding a branch you don't want any more is *very* easy with cloned
branches. It's as simple as `rm -rf test-project-feature-branch`.
### Disadvantages
Creating a branch by cloning locally is slower than the other methods, though
Mercurial will use hardlinks when cloning if your OS supports them (most do)
so it won't be *too* slow.
However, the clone branching method can really slow things down when other
developers (not located nearby) want to work on the project. If you publish
two branches as separate repositories (such as `stable` and `version-2`),
contributors will have to clone down *both* repositories through the internet
if they want to work on both branches. That can take a lot of extra time,
depending on the repository size and bandwidth.
It can become especially wasteful if, for example, there are 10,000 changesets
before the branch point and maybe 100 per branch after. Instead of pulling
down 10,200 changesets you need to pull down 20,200. If you want to work on
three different branches, you're pulling down 30,300 instead of 10,300.
There is a way to avoid this large download cost, as pointed out by Guido
Ostkamp and timeless_mbp in [#mercurial][hg-irc]. The idea is that you clone
one branch down from the server, then pull *all* the branches into it, then
clone locally to split that repository back into branches. This avoids the
cost of cloning down the same changesets over and over.
An example of this method with three branches would look something like this:
:::console
$ hg clone http://server/project-main project
$ cd project
$ hg pull http://server/project-branch1
$ hg pull http://server/project-branch2
$ cd ..
$ hg clone project project-main --rev [head of mainline branch]
$ hg clone project project-branch1 --rev [head of branch1]
$ hg clone project project-branch2 --rev [head of branch2]
$ rm -rf project
$ cd project-main
$ [edit .hg/hgrc file to make the default path http://server/project-main]
$ cd ../project-branch1
$ [edit .hg/hgrc to make the default path http://server/project-branch1]
$ cd ../project-branch2
$ [edit .hg/hgrc to make the default path http://server/project-branch2]
This example assumes you know the IDs of the branch heads off the top of your
head, which you probably don't. You'll have to look them up.
It also assumes that there is only one new head per branch, when there might
be more. If `branch1` has two heads which are not in `mainline`, you would
need to look up the IDs of *both* and specify both in the clone command.
Another annoyance shows up when you're working on a project that relies on
your code being at a specific file path. If you branch by cloning you'll need
to rename directories (or change the file path configuration) every time you
want to switch branches. This might not be a common situation (most build
tools don't care about the absolute path to the code) but it *does* appear now
and then.
I personally don't like this method and don't use it. Others do though, so
it's good to understand it (Mercurial itself uses this model).
### Comparison to git
Git can use this method of branching too, although I don't see it very often.
Technically this is the exact same thing as creating a fork on [GitHub][], but
most people think of "fork" and "branch" as separate concepts.

Branching with Bookmarks
------------------------
The next way to branch is to use a bookmark. For example:
:::console
$ cd ~/src/test-project
$ hg bookmark main
$ hg bookmark feature
[bookmark]: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BookmarksExtension
Now you've got two bookmarks (essentially a tag) for your two branches at the
current changeset.
To switch to one of these branches you can use `hg update feature` to update
to the tip changeset of that branch and mark yourself as working on that
branch. When you commit, it will move the bookmark to the newly created
changeset.
**Note:** for more detailed information on actually using bookmarks day-to-day
please read the [bookmarks page][bookmark]. This guide is meant to show the
different branching models, and bookmarks have a few quirks that you should
know about if you're going to use them.
Here's what the repository would look like with this method:
![Bookmark Diagram](/media/images{{ parent_url }}/branch-bookmark.png "Branching with Bookmarks")
The diagram of the changesets is pretty simple: the branch point was at
changeset 2 and each branch has one new changeset on it.
Now let's look at the markers. The `default` marker is still there, and we're
still going to ignore it.
There are two new labels in this diagram -- these represent the bookmarks.
Notice how their outlines are *not* dashed? This is because bookmarks are
actual objects stored on disk, not just convenient shortcuts that Mercurial
will let you use.
When you use a bookmark name as a revision Mercurial will look up the revision
it points at and use that.
### Advantages
Bookmarks give you a quick, lightweight way to give meaningful labels to your
branches.
You can delete them when you no longer need them. For example, if we finish
development of the new feature and merge the changes in the main branch, we
probably don't need to keep the `feature` bookmark around any more.
### Disadvantages
Being lightweight can also be a disadvantage. If you delete a bookmark, then
look at your code a year later and wonder what all those changesets that got
merged into main were for, the bookmark name is gone. This probably isn't a
big issue if you write good changeset summaries.
Bookmarks are local. They do *not* get transferred during a push or pull!
There has been some whispering about adding this is Mercurial 1.4, but for now
if you want to give someone else your bookmarks you'll need to manually give
them the file the bookmarks are kept in.
**UPDATE:** As of Mercurial 1.6 [bookmarks can be pushed and
pulled][remote-book] between repositories.
[remote-book]: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BookmarksExtension#Working_With_Remote_Repositories
### Comparison to git
Branching with bookmarks is very close to the way git usually handles
branching. Mercurial bookmarks are like git refs: named pointers to changesets
that move on commit.
The biggest difference is that git refs are transferred when pushing/pulling
and Mercurial bookmarks are not.
Branching with Named Branches
-----------------------------
The third way of branching is to use Mercurial's named branches. Some people
prefer this method (myself included) and many others don't.
To create a new named branch:
:::console
$ cd ~/src/test-project
$ hg branch feature
When you commit the newly created changeset will be on the same branch as its
parent, unless you've used `hg branch` to mark it as being on a different one.
Here's what a repository using named branches might look like:
![Named Branch Diagram](/media/images{{ parent_url }}/branch-named.png "Branching with Named Branches")
An important difference with this method is that the branch name is
permanently recorded as part of the changeset's metadata (as you can see in
changeset 4 in the diagram).
**Note:** The default branch is called `default` and is not normally shown
unless you ask for verbose output.
Now it's time to explain those magic dashed-border labels we've been ignoring.
Using a branch name to specify a revision is shorthand for "the tip changeset
of this named branch". In this example repository:
* Running `hg update default` would update to changeset 3, which is the tip of
the `default` branch.
* Running `hg update feature` would update to changeset 4, which is the tip of
the `feature` branch.
Neither of these labels actually exist as an object anywhere on disk (like a
bookmark would). When you use them Mercurial calculates the appropriate
revision on the fly.
### Advantages
The biggest advantage to using named branches is that every changeset on a
branch has the branch name as part of its metadata, which I find very helpful
(especially when using [graphlog][]).
[graphlog]: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GraphlogExtension
### Disadvantages
Many people don't like cluttering up changeset metadata with branch names,
especially if they're small branches that are going to be merged pretty
quickly.
In the past there was also the problem of not having a way to "close" a
branch, which means that over time the list of branches could get huge. This
was fixed in Mercurial 1.2 which introduced the `--close-branch` option for
`hg commit`.
### Comparison to git
As far as I know git has no equivalent to Mercurial's named branches. Branch
information is never stored as part of a git changeset's metadata.
Branching Anonymously
---------------------
The last method of branching with Mercurial is the fastest and easiest: update
to any revision you want and commit. You don't have to think up a name for it
or do anything else -- just update and commit.
When you update to a specific revision, Mercurial will mark the parent of the
working directory as that changeset. When you commit, the newly created
changeset's parent will be the parent of the working directory.
The result of updating and committing without doing anything else would be:
![Anonymous Diagram](/media/images{{ parent_url }}/branch-anon.png "Branching Anonymously")
How do you switch back and forth between branches once you do this? Just use
`hg update --check REV` with the revision number (or hash) (you can shorten
`--check` to `-c`).
**Note:** the `--check` option was added in Mercurial 1.3, but it was broken.
It's fixed in 1.3.1. If you're using something earlier than 1.3.1, you really
should update.
Logging commands like `hg log` and `hg graphlog` will show you all the
changesets in the repository, so there's no danger of "losing" changesets.
### Advantages
This is the fastest, easiest way to branch. You don't have to think of a name
or close/delete anything when you're finished -- just update and commit.
This method is *great* for quick-fix, two-or-three-changeset branches.
### Disadvantages
Using anonymous branching obviously means that there won't be any descriptive
name for a branch, so you'll need to write good commit messages if you want to
remember what a branch was for a couple of months later.
Not having a single name to represent a branch means that you'll need to look
up the revision numbers or hashes with `hg log` or `hg graphlog` each time you
want to switch back and forth. If you're switching a lot this might be more
trouble than it's worth.
### Comparison to git
Git has no real way to handle this. Sure, it lets you update and commit, but
if you don't create a (named) ref to that new commit you're never going to
find it again once you switch to another one. Well, unless you feel like
grep'ing through a bunch of log output.
Oh, and hopefully it doesn't get garbage collected.
Sometimes you might not want to think up a name for a quick-fix branch. With
git you *have* to name it if you want to really do anything with it, with
Mercurial you don't.
One More Difference Between Mercurial and git
---------------------------------------------
There's one more *big* difference between Mercurial's branching and git's
branching:
**Mercurial will push/pull *all* branches by default, while git will push/pull
only the *current* branch.**
This is important if you're a git user working with Mercurial. If you want to
push/pull only a single branch with Mercurial you can use the `--rev` option
(`-r` for short) and specify the tip revision of the branch:
:::console
$ hg push --rev branchname
$ hg push --rev bookmarkname
$ hg push --rev 4
If you specify a revision, Mercurial will push that changeset and any
ancestors of it that the target doesn't already have.
This doesn't apply when you use the "Branching with Clones" method because the
branches are separate repositories.
Conclusion
----------
I hope this guide is helpful. If you see anything I've missed, especially on
the git side of things (I don't use git any more than I have to) or have any
questions please let me know!

Breaking The Waves Emily Watson, Stellan Skarsgaard
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Review by Ed Johnson-Ott For more reviews, go to www.nuvo-online.com and click on "film."
Great movies shake you up. They make demands on you, challenge your beliefs, force you to look at things through another person's eyes. "Breaking The Waves," the first English-language film from Danish director Lars von Trier, is transcendent filmmaking. Using a tragic love story as his framework, Von Trier takes an unflinching look at the chasm between the rational and the spiritual sides of our lives. A haunting, brutal fairy tale, this masterfully detailed character study is uncompromising and emotionally exhausting. It's a great movie.
Set in the early 70's, the North Sea oil boom brings outsiders to a remote Scottish community on the Isle Of Skye. Bess (Emily Watson,) a "simple-minded" local, meets and falls in love with Jan (Stellan Skarsgaard,) a Norwegian oil-rigger. Their impending marriage disturbs the religious community, a group of Calvinists whose severe fundamentalism makes the Amish seem like anarcists by comparison.
Eventually, Jan has to return to the rigs, leaving a devastated Bess begging God to bring her husband home. When an industrial accident sends Jan back, paralyzed from the neck down, Bess is convinced the disaster was caused by her prayers. She stays by her husband's side, acutely depressed and desperate to atone. Then, under the influence of drugs and despair, Jan makes an startling request of his wife that sends her spinning madly on a frenzied and shocking quest of self-sacrifice in the name of love.
In lesser hands, this sort of story could easily have been presented as simple melodrama. Von Trier's vision, however, is far more expansive. Using a jittery, hand-held camera, he creates a feeling of immediacy. The grainy close-ups are intensely personal, giving the movie the look of a documentary. At the same time, he uses extended shots of idyllic psychedelic landscapes to divide the film into chapters, underlining the romantic side of the story.
"Breaking The Waves" is populated by a host of memorable individuals, but the remarkable character of Bess is the center of the film. Because she is "not right in the head," her family treats her with benign condescension. Jan, however, views her as a miracle, and his wife blossoms in this new phase of her life. As Bess, Emily Watson gives a breathtaking, remarkably evocative performance.  Bess, a virgin who most likely has never seen a nude man before, studies his body carefully. In a matter of seconds, her face registers surprise, amusement, fear, awe and lust. It's a wonderful scene and a tour de force for Watson.
Bess is an avid churchgoer, but her approach is wildly different from that of the righteous townsfolk. They trudge through their days with grim faces. For them, life is endurance, a dour investment for an eventual payoff in the hereafter. Bess, however, is full of wonder, doubt, joy and fear. She talks with God routinely, working through dilemmas by verbalizing both sides of the conversation, using a childlike voice for herself and a stern one for God. Again, Watson plays these scenes superbly, providing delicate shades of character without overdoing it.
As Bess' spiritual guilt increases, and her actions become more desperate and erratic, you may think you have her, and the whole movie, figured out. I certainly did. But, at the last moment, von Trier throws in an amazing and totally unexpected scene. I won't elaborate, except to say you will leave the theater reevaluating everything you thought during the film's 156 minutes. The scene is an epiphany for a film that was already stunning. Von Trier refers to "Breaking The Waves" as "undismissable." He is absolutely right.

THE GAME
Director: David Fincher Writers: John Brancato, Michael Ferris, Larry Gross, and Andrew Kevin Walker Producers: Cean Chaffin & Steve Golin
Characters: Michael Douglas - Nicholas Van Orton Deborah Unger - Christine Sean Penn - Conrad Van Orton
Review:
"The Game" is one of those movies that people love to call a 'taut thriller'. In reference to this film, though, 'taut' is a joke. Most movies that categorize themselves as suspenseful thrillers or somesuch have a few surprises in them and perhaps a twist at the end that you might or might not have seen coming. "The Game" is decidedly atypical. I can honestly say that this is one of the most gripping and probably the most suspenseful movie I have seen.
David Fincher's fingerprints are all over this movie, and that is a very very good thing. From the customary darkness of the city and Michael Douglas' suits and Sean Penn's hair to the brief explosion of blinding neon in the middle of the film to the unspeakably suspenseful ending, it's clear who the director was. Actually, it's funny, I first heard a while back that David Fincher had directed some music videos, among which were "Janie's Got a Gun" by Aerosmith and "Vogue" by Madonna. I thought that was kind of odd, but after seeing each of those videos again, I really feel I should have known. Also, I have read in a place or two that he is either "strongly influenced by" or "blatantly copies" a film by the name of Videodrome, but having never seen it, I cannot comment.
Okay, enough about the director. Ever since I saw "Wall Street", I have been somewhat of a fan of Douglas, though he has made some movies by which I am decidedly unimpressed. Even if you don't like him, though, it's very clear that he was perfectly cast in this role. It's a role he's been playing quite often of late. Basically, he's the guy from "A Perfect Murder", except he's a slightly more sympathetic character this time around.
He is, however, not hugely concerned with those around him, including his brother Conrad, played by Sean Penn. Penn is unquestionably one of my favorite actors, and if you don't agree, you should check out "State of Grace" and "She's So Lovely". Anyway, though Penn's role is fairly small, he is responsible for the goings-on in the movie. For his birthday, Conrad gives his brother a gift certificate redeemable for participation in a game that is tailor-made for each participant by a company called Consumer Recreation Services. On somewhat of a whim, Nicholas decides to try it out, and man, do antics ensue!
I really don't see what there is not to like about this film. There is certainly the question of plausibility, but it is addressed relatively well in the movie. And besides, it's not all that hard to suspend disbelief for two hours and eight minutes. It's really a highly entertaining experience, and if that doesn't get you, then you can just pay attention to how beautiful the whole thing is.  Fincher and Andrew Kevin Walker (co-writer) worked together on Se7en (possibly my favorite movie ever), and as I said before, I am a fan of both Douglas and Penn. This is a movie that just can't go wrong. Give it a try.

NHS digital service standards in the NHS
07/03/2020
1 Introduction
The GOV.UK service standard is widely regarded as representing good practice in delivering digital services in the public sector. It is mandatory for certain digital services within government but the latest guidance includes standards which can be adopted across the public sector regardless of whether they would require mandatory assessment. It includes fourteen standards.
This document examines these standards from the point of view of data science teams, and particularly data science teams within the NHS. The NHS service standard reproduces the 14 standards, and provides extra information to teams in the NHS in recognition of some of the ways that the NHS can differ from other areas of the public sector. The NHS service standard also includes 3 extra service standards, again recognising the unique environment of the NHS.
Examples of the difference between working within the NHS and the rest of the public sector include:
- multi-disciplinary teams are not common in the NHS - by “multi-disciplinary” we mean teams made up of product and delivery managers, designers, developers, user researchers and content designers
- NHS delivery teams are less likely to be practising user-centred design and agile service delivery
- measuring outcomes is often more complex for health
- more products and services are commissioned locally, for example in hospital trusts, and they are more likely to rely on suppliers, long-term contracts and “off the shelf” solutions
These issues are clearly equally important in data science, particularly the last point, and I propose in this document that data science teams across the NHS begin to work more closely in line with the GOV.UK service standard, as expressed within the NHS digital service standard and including the extra three points on it. The fourteen GOV.UK points area listed following, followed by the three extra NHS points.
- Understand users and their needs in the context of health and care
- Work towards solving a whole problem for users
- Provide a joined up experience across all channels
- Make the service simple to use
- Make sure everyone can use the service
- Create a team that includes multidisciplinary skills and perspectives
- Use agile ways of working
- Iterate and improve frequently
- Respect and protect users’ confidentiality and privacy
- Define what success looks like and be open about how your service is performing
- Choose the right tools and technology
- Make new source code open
- Use and contribute to open standards, common components and patterns
- Operate a reliable service
- Support a culture of care
- Make your service clinically safe
- Make your service interoperable

Doctor Whoexterminate exterminate exterminateStar Trek has a reputation for attracting a certain class of obsessive, socially stunted fan. But when the latest Trek fan film isn't geeky enough to fully satisfy the escapist yen of your Linux-loving, Zaurus-toting, polyester-wearing ass, there is only one fully pedigreed alternative suitable for your viewing needs -- the one and only Doctor Who.(Unless you're British, in which case loving Doctor Who comes as naturally as loving Seinfeld does to Americans.) The original Doctor Who was a serialized children's show on the BBC, based on a high concept that boils down to "Willy Wonka meets H.G. Wells." In the early episodes, The Doctor was a cantankerous grandfather who inexplicably owned a time machine. The first season of Doctor Who was long on action and short on explanations, but you don't stay on the air continuously for 26 years -- for around 700 episodes -- without providing some backstory. Over time, the following basic mythos emerged from the Doctor's endless hours on television (notwithstanding numerous continuity glitches):
Over the course of Doctor Who history, there have been 10 different doctors (not counting a few casting flukes too geeky to get into here). Producers came up with the idea that The Doctor's body is periodically replaced by a new version when actor who played the original Doctor fell ill and had to be replaced. The show debuted in 1963 to adequate ratings, but Doctor Who didn't gather steam until veteran TV screenwriter Terry Nation created the series' most memorable element -- the Daleks, killer cyborgs with a bad attitude, who unfortunately resembled trash cans mounted with light bulbs, bugles, and buzzing dildoid wands (think R2D2 meets The Terminator). As if their appearance weren't ridiculous enough, the Daleks rolled (and occasionally floated) around proclaiming their basic credo in a faux robotic monotone. The credo consisted of three words: EXTERMINATE. EXTERMINATE. EXTERMINATE. Science fiction consumers in the mid-1960s had been conditioned to accept the likes of It Came From Outer Space and Them, so the Daleks fit right in. Or maybe it's a British thing -- the Daleks were voted the most evil villains in television history in a British survey as recently as 2003. Whatever the source of its strange appeal, Doctor Who proved as undeniable and inexhaustible as the Daleks themselves. Building on the success of the Daleks, the writers crafted many imaginative alien opponents for the intrepid Doctor, such as the Robomen (humanoid Daleks!), the Cybermen (not Daleks, but like Daleks, only humanoid!), the Autons (like Daleks, but humanoid and plastic!) and the Yeti (like Daleks, but humanoid and furry!). The debut of the bloodthirsty Daleks also shaped the direction of the series. Originally conceived as an educational adventure (along the lines of the later Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?), Doctor Who quickly became the televised equivalent of the 1950s Hollywood sci-fi genre -- including the cheesy dialogue, asexual characters, gobbledygook science and excruciatingly bad special effects. In other words, the show was frequently terrifying to children but strictly camp for adults, with a fine sense of its own absurdity (some episodes were openly comedic, including a handful written by Douglas Adams, creator of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy). Viewership soared into the millions and the show became a mainstay of BBC television for more than two decades. Although it was a mainstream phenom in the U.K., Doctor Who was more of a cult hit in the U.S., airing on public television and attracting a demographic of kids too geeky to be satisfied with Star Trek. From 1963 through 1989, Doctor Who was a constant presence on the British cultural scene. The series exploded into virtually every medium, including books, magazines, trading cards, comic books, soundtracks and songs "inspired by" the Doctor Who theme, numerous televised specials and even two feature films starring Peter Cushing in the title role. Doctor Who also became an almost unparalleled force in the world of merchandising, with a breadth of offerings comparable to Hello Kitty. An unbelievable flood of Doctor Who memorabilia chokes the bandwidth of eBay to this day, including inflatable dolls, bottle stoppers, t-shirts, keychains, coffee mugs, cell phone faceplates, paperweights, coasters, cookie jars, remote-control Daleks, collectable plates and replicas of the Doctor's all-purpose technological gizmo, the sonic screwdriver. The Daleks have managed to accomplish even more than the Doctor, with an official Dalek stamp issued by the British government in 1999. One of the Doctor's television assistants, Katy Manning, even posed for an infamous "Dalek porn" shoot after leaving the show, much to the glee of Doctor Who's undersexed American fan base. As Doctor Who cruised into its third decade of nearly continuous episodes, the appeal of the Doctor and his adventures began to wear thin. Ratings declined as viewers started turning the dial in search of new entertainment, and the situation was aggravated by backstage politics at the BBC and on the set. In 1989, after 23 years on the air, Doctor Who finally vanished from the British airwaves, effectively canceled although it was never formally characterized as such. Doctor Who continued to resurface fitfully through the 1990s in a series of specials, semi-parodies and an American-made TV movie. In 2003, enough time had passed that viewers were once again intrigued by the notion of Doctor Who, and the BBC announced a revival, which debuted in 2005 to blockbuster ratings, obliterating the competition in its time slot and sparking a new wave of nostalgic revivalism on the BBC. The new Doctor Who retained the quirky charm of the original but updated the special effects and took a more sophisticated approach to storytelling. For example, a recent story arc satirized the September 11 conspiracy theories, depicting an alien spacecraft crashing into Big Ben. England declares war on the offending planet, but it turns out to be a government-sponsored hoax so that the British can steal the other planet's oil... more or less. In keeping with tradition, the new Doctor quit the show after only one season paving the way for the 10th incarnation (according to the officially sanctioned chronology). Although there are currently no plans to bring the new Doctor Who to the states, it's probably only a matter of time before struggling PBS stations demand its release so they can interrupt it every 45 seconds during pledge season. The only obstacle to the series continuing for another 40 years is a theoretical limit placed on the number of times a Time Lord's body can be regenerated. According to series lore, the Doctor can only regenerate 12 times, meaning the 13th Doctor will presumably be the last.

The term “atheist” derives from two Greek components—a negative prefix, a, which signifies “no,” “not,” or “without,” and the noun theos, “God.” A kindred form of the term is found in Ephesians 2:12, where Paul notes that pagan Gentiles were “without God” (atheos), i.e., without a relationship with the Lord.
In considering the meaning of the term, it must be noted that the word has some flexibility.
In its broadest sense, atheism repudiates belief in any sort of deity transcendent to man. “Matter” is all there is.
In a more limited aspect, one may contend: “I believe in my own kind of ‘God,’ but I do not believe in the ‘God’ of the Bible.” The “deist” falls into this category. In reality, however, this is a form of atheism.
One may be a theoretical theist, but a practical atheist. That is, he claims to believe in the God of the Scriptures, but he lives as though there is no God.
Atheism has been aptly called “the fool’s religion.” That descriptive is not meant to be insensitively harsh; rather, it is an affirmation of stark reality. “The fool has said in his heart, There is no God” (Psalm 14:1). Atheism is “religious,” and it is “foolish.” Note the following.
First, the English word “religion” enjoys considerable elasticity. Professor Vergilius Ferm, who was head of the Department of Philosophy at The College of Wooster, noted that one may be “religious” and “not believe in god (in any conventional sense)” (1945, 647).
A number of atheistic organizations have incorporated as “religious” entities in recent years in order to secure tax-exempt status. In July of 1999, the Freedom From Religion Foundation (Madison, Wisconsin) conducted a national mini-convention in San Francisco (about 150 people showed up). The meeting was punctuated with fervent services—the congregation waved their hands in the air, and sung hymns (like “Nothing Fails Like Faith”). A Bay Area journalist wrote a piece about the debacle under the title, “Nonbelievers keep their faith alive.”
Second, the descriptive, “fool,” is an apt characterization of the atheist. In Psalm 14:1 the Hebrew term nabal describes one who is “spiritually senseless,” as well as the person who is characterized by “moral depravity, spiritual irresponsibility, and social insensitivity” (cf. Isaiah 32:6) (Pfeiffer, et al., 1999, 628; Douglas, 1974, 433).
Atheists are not guided by reason. In his opening remarks to the saints in Rome, Paul refers to the heathen Romans as those who “refused to have God in their knowledge” (1:28). He refers to them as “vain” (empty) in their “reasonings,” “senseless” in heart, “fools” who have rejected wisdom (vv. 21-22), and “without understanding” (v. 31).
Disbelief in God is the epitome of intellectual irresponsibility. In this article I will discuss atheism from three vantage points—its motives, its irrationality, and the utter void it brings to the lives of its adherents.

Add AJAX to your web application using simple, declarative HTML attributes.
<-- This button posts to the /example/click URL when it is clicked --> <button ic-post-to="/example/click"> Click Me! </button> <-- This span is bound to a URL that returns an updated version of the span when the button is clicked --> <span ic-src="/example/click"> You have not yet clicked the button </span>
With Intercooler you can use easy to understand, declarative attributes to bind your HTML elements to AJAX end points.
Intercooler is a pragmatic library, however, so you can drop into javascript when it's necessary.
You can use Intercooler for as much or as little of your application as you like.
No need to wholesale adopt a new framework to start adding AJAX functionality to your application!
Intercooler is a little library built to play well with other web technologies, like AngularJS, EmberJS and Turbolinks.
Use the right tool for the particular job: Intercooler won't get in the way.
Intercooler uses pattern matching in your URLs to detect and refresh dependencies between HTML elements. Typically it will do the right thing without much work on your part. And, if you need to add or ignore dependencies, Intercooler allows you to do that as well.
Although it was inspired by Partials in Rails, IntercoolerJS works equally well with any back end platform.
IntercoolerJS works great with any HTML/CSS framework, but was designed with Bootstrap in mind, making it easy to create dynamic UIs using the standard, simple Bootstrap techniques.
IntercoolerJS was designed to be open and extensible so, when push comes to shove, you can customise pretty much any part of the it you need to.

Pep Guardiola explains why victories over Man Utd remains managerial highlights
Pep Guardiola twice led Barcelona to victory over Manchester United in the Champions League final
by Liam Prenderville, http://www.facebook.com/mirrorfootballPep Guardiola admits Champions League final victories over Manchester United remain career highlights.
The City boss twice got the better of Sir Alex Ferguson with Barcelona to claim the ultimate prize in club football.
Guardiola won the treble in his first season at Barca, seeing off United 2-0 in Rome thanks to goals from Lionel Messi and Samuel Eto'o.
Discussing the victory with BT Sport's What I Wore, Guardiola said: "The semi-final against Chelsea was really tough and we were lucky.
"That United was outrageous, they were outstanding. Cristiano Ronaldo , Tevez, Berbatov, Scholes, Carrick, Giggs, Ferdinand, Vidic, Van der Sar, an incredible team."
United and Barca would lock horns again two years later at Wembley.
The Spanish giants delivered one of the finest team performances in recent times as they dominated United, with Messi, David Villa and Pedro on target.
Guardiola added: "We played really good - and we did it In the Champions League final, against Manchester United .
"United is one of the best teams in the world with an incredible manager and a top team.
"It was the final ending of what we did together.
"Wembley is a special stadium throughout my career. Winning a Champions League in the old Wembley [as a player] and one in the new one, is very special."
Manchester City continue their quest for a first European success under Guardiola when they take on Atalanta in the Champions League this week.

A Mission may be described using maturity levels. Maturity levels are important as they help Squads focus on the most important elements first, and mature as development and/or investment to the effort continues.
The best way to describe maturity levels of a feature in Agile Squads is by setting one Primary objective and a set of Secondary objectives. The Primary objective is the first and most important milestone for a Hero Squad to reach. Should they succeed on a Primary objective within a Mission Cycle, they may continue work, conquering the Secondary objectives.

This puzzle is a simplified version of the hard puzzle "Skynet : the bridge". The aim is to drive a motorbike to make it jump over a gap at the right speed and time. Validation tests are specific cases, that can be passed by implementing the algorithm given in the problem statement. Accelerate until you have enough speed to cross the gap, keep that speed until its time to jump and brake after the gap.
#include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char** argv) { int before, gap, after; scanf("%d%d%d\n", &before, &gap, &after); for (;;) { // x = motorbike abscissa ; dx = motorbike speed int dx, x; scanf("%d%d", &dx, &x); // if the bike has passed the gap, or going faster than needed to jump over it if (x >= before+gap || dx > gap+1) printf("SLOW\n"); // if the bike isn't going fast enough to jump over the gap else if (dx <= gap) printf("SPEED\n"); // if the bike can land after the gap by jumping else if (x+dx >= before+gap) printf("JUMP\n"); else printf("WAIT\n"); } return EXIT_SUCCESS; }
import java.util.*; class Player { public static void main(String args[]) { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); int before = in.nextInt(); int gap = in.nextInt(); int after = in.nextInt(); while (true) { // x = motorbike abscissa ; dx = motorbike speed int dx = in.nextInt(); int x = in.nextInt(); // if the bike isn't going fast enough to jump over the gap if ((x >= before + gap) || (dx > gap + 1)) System.out.println("SLOW"); // if the bike is going slower than needed : speed else if (dx <= gap) System.out.println("SPEED"); // if the bike can land after the gap : jump else if (x + dx >= before + gap) System.out.println("JUMP"); else System.out.println("WAIT"); } } }
before, gap, after = int(input()), int(input()), int(input()) while 1: # x = motorbike abscissa ; dx = motorbike speed dx, x = int(input()), int(input()) # if the bike is after the gap, or going faster than needed : slow if (x >= before + gap) or (dx > gap+1): print("SLOW") # if the bike isn't going fast enough to jump over the gap elif (dx <= gap): print("SPEED") # if the bike can land after the gap by jumping elif (x+dx >= before+gap): print("JUMP") else: print("WAIT")


What are the launch games for Google Stadia?
by Jade KingGoogle Stadia is almost here, and now the selection of games set to be available at launch have been detailed by the giant tech corporation.
Originally set to launch with an underwhelming list of 12 titles, a last-minute update has pushed the total to 22, making the grand total far more attractive to players sitting on the fence.
Google has also outlined a number of games coming before the end of 2019 alongside its release line-up, giving us a potential incentive to stick around if the initial rollout leaves us wanting more.
Related: Google Stadia Review
What are the Google Stadia launch games?
We’ve compiled the complete list of launch titles below which includes a handful of blockbusters alongside the welcome addition of a few indie gems to boot:
- Assassin’s Creed Odyssey
- Attack on Titan: Final Battle 2
- Destiny 2: The Collection (available in Stadia Pro)
- Farming Simulator 2019
- Final Fantasy XV
- Football Manager 2020
- Grid 2019
- Gylt
- Just Dance 2020
- Kine
- Metro Exodus
- Mortal Kombat 11
- NBA 2K20
- Rage 2
- Rise of the Tomb Raider
- Samurai Shodown (available in Stadia Pro)
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider
- Thumper
- Tomb Raider 2013
- Trials Rising
- Wolfenstein: Youngblood
Google has confirmed that Borderlands 3, Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Dragonball: Xenoverse and Darksiders Genesis will be coming to the platform before this year concludes, meaning you’ll have a few titles to dig into ahead of the festive period.
Stadia is set to launch on November 19 with its Founders and Premiere Editions, introducing the ‘Pro’ subscription before a free version of sorts is due to rollout in 2020. Exactly when this will launch remains unconfirmed, and will hopefully accompany a bunch of features Stadia is missing right now.
We’ll have full impressions of Google Stadia coming this week where we’ll be diving into the technology and how it works in a normal environment. Expect a detailed look at the controller and catalogue of aforementioned launch games, too!
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly review everything we recommend, using industry standard tests to evaluate products. We’ll always tell you what we find. We may get a commission if you buy via our price links. Tell us what you think – email the Editor


This repository is the home to a performant multi-message digital signature algorithm implementation which supports deriving zero knowledge proofs that enable selective disclosure from the originally signed message set.
BBS+ Signatures are a digital signature algorithm originally born from the work on Short group signatures by Boneh, Boyen, and Shachum which was later improved on in Constant-Size Dynamic k-TAA as BBS+ and touched on again in section 4.3 in Anonymous Attestation Using the Strong Diffie Hellman Assumption Revisited .
BBS+ signatures require a pairing-friendly curve, this library includes support for BLS12-381.
BBS+ Signatures allow for multi-message signing whilst producing a single output signature. With a BBS signature, a proof of knowledge based proof can be produced where only some of the originally signed messages are revealed at the discretion of the prover.
For more details on the signature algorithm please refer to here
To use this package within your project simply run
npm install @mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures
Or with Yarn
yarn add @mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures
See the sample directory for a runnable demo.
The following is a short sample on how to use the API
import {
generateBls12381KeyPair,
blsSign,
blsVerify,
blsCreateProof,
blsVerifyProof,
} from "@mattrglobal/node-bbs-signatures";
//Generate a new key pair
const keyPair = generateBls12381KeyPair();
//Set of messages we wish to sign
const messages = ["message1", "message2"];
//Create the signature
const signature = blsSign({
keyPair,
messages: messages,
});
//Verify the signature
const isVerified = blsVerify({
publicKey: keyPair.publicKey,
messages: messages,
signature,
});
//Derive a proof from the signature revealing the first message

Within a digital signature there are several elements for which it is useful to know the size, the following table outlines the general equation for calculating element sizes in relation to BBS+ signatures as it is dependent on the pairing friendly curve used.
| Element | Size Equation |
|---|---|
| Private Key | F |
| Public Key | G2 |
| Signature | G1 + 2*F |
| Proof | 5G1 + (4 + no_of_hidden_messages)F |
F
A field elementG1
A point in the field of G1G2
A point in the field of G2no_of_hidden_messages
The number of the hidden messagesThis library includes specific support for BLS12-381 keys with BBS+ signatures and hence gives rise to the following concrete sizes
| Element | Size with BLS12-381 |
|---|---|
| Private Key | 32 Bytes |
| Public Key | 96 Bytes |
| Signature | 112 Bytes |
| Proof | 368 + (no_of_hidden_messages)*32 Bytes |
The following describes how to get started as a contributor to this project
The following is a list of dependencies you must install to build and contribute to this project
For more details see our contribution guidelines
To install the package dependencies run:
yarn install --frozen-lockfile
To build the project run:
yarn build
To run the test in the project run:
yarn test
To benchmark the implementation locally run:
yarn benchmark
This library uses the bbs rust crate for the implementation of BBS+ signatures and BLS12-381 which is then wrapped and exposed in javascript/typescript using neon-bindings.

Now that the Dependencies page is working, it would be great to be able to find out more about the dependent objects.
Many of the pages in the Technology Explorer include references to related tables.
For example, the Columns pages, the Indexes page, and the Table Privileges page all include a reference link to the Table page to display the table relates to the column, index or privilege.
You can copy one of these references or type them in by hand.
In this example, you will create a reference to the table dependencies and the dependant tables.
Goal:
Create a reference for the table with the depending and one for the dependent table.
Steps to complete:
- If you closed the tableDependCat.xml file
- Open the file '/var/www/tableDefinitions/tableDependCat' from gedit or open a terminal and run the following command:
- “gedit /var/www/tableDefinitions/tableDependCat.xml &”
- Make the changes as indicated on the right
- Save the file
- Do not close the file
The changes are indicated with the following:
- Indicated text has been removed
- Indicated text has been edited
- Indicated text has been added
- Indicated text is the source of a copy


fun updatePreviewStatus(): Unit
Is called whenever the implementation should be made to match up with the state of isPreviewing. cameraState is also set to IDLE or PREVIEW to match with the implementation, here.
