A war named for this city ended with a decisive Austrian victory at Tolentino that forced out a king who was styled the “First Horseman in Europe.” This city was briefly ruled by Henry II, Duke of Guise after a revolt over exorbitant taxes levied by the Duke of Arcos during the Thirty Years’ War. Kings of this city built a massive Baroque palace whose extensive gardens feature a “Grand Cascade” by the fountain of Diana and Actaeon in the town of Caserta. This city was briefly governed by the fisherman Masaniello during a 1647 revolt. Spanish rule over a kingdom named for this city began with its conquest by the Aragonese king Alfonso V and continued under the Bourbon dynasty. For 10 points, what city in Campania was the primary capital of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies?

As part of an “epistemology” named for this process, Northwestern psychologist Donald T. Campbell conducted studies of false knowledge. Robert Boyd and Peter Richerson’s work on the cultural form of this process emphasizes the existence of “oblique” and “horizontal” transmission. The choice between conciliation and conflict is highlighted in a model from a field named for this process, the “hawk–dove.” A strategy that is impermeable in a population is said to be “stable” with respect to this process. John Maynard Smith is largely credited with founding a discipline of game theory named for this process based on the theories of geneticist George Price. For 10 points, what process was first applied to human societies by Herbert Spencer, who coined the phrase “survival of the fittest?”

In a film in this genre, white text like “Onions,” “Grits,” and “Dustballs” are projected onto a red background on a screen. Sam Wrench directed a 2023 film in this genre distributed directly to AMC after the star negotiated with its CEO. That film in this genre was aired for free on Austrian TV in August 2024 after a failed terrorist plot. A man holds a replica of a brain in the opening of a Spike Lee film in this genre, American Utopia. In 2023, A24 released a 4K restoration of a Jonathan Demme film in this genre whose opening close-up depicts the white shoes of a man carrying a boombox; in that film, David Byrne dons a ridiculously oversized suit. A film in this genre was shot at SoFi Stadium and includes the sections Evermore, Reputation, and 1989. For 10 points, name this genre of Stop Making Sense and The Eras Tour.

In this US state, white residents destroyed Black-owned saloons in the Hard Scrabble and Snow Town riots. This state was primarily where John and James DeWolf operated their slave trade operations. This state’s 1st Regiment was nicknamed the “Black Regiment” for being the first to enlist enslaved people. In this state, a short-lived governor succeeded by Samuel Ward King revoked his support for voting rights for Black residents, which was central to Dorr’s Rebellion. This state’s Slater Mill, named for Samuel Slater, relied on slave labor to fund the Pawtucket economy. This state’s major triangular trade ports included a city home to the Free African Union Society, Newport. For 10 points, name this state home to the slave-trading Brown family, who name a university in Providence.

Hearing of the approaching burial of a man who had this role reminds another man that he had paid for Olunde to go to medical school in England.

A type of these particles has an X charge of negative five or a “B minus L” of negative one in the SO(10) grand unification theory. A mechanism that predicts unobserved “heavy” instances of these particles diagonalizes a matrix such that the off-diagonal components are the Dirac mass and are much smaller than the second diagonal entry. A mechanism involving these particles was the subject of a 1990s experiment at Los Alamos that used a liquid scintillator tube. Unobserved instances of these particles that have right-handed chirality are termed “sterile.” Detectors like Super-Kamiokande attempt to observe mass oscillations of these particles.

A poem titled for this condition notes, “It began with a certain disgust and ended… in a panicked rout of perfumes,” and ends with the prediction, “now is the time of the assassins.” In a prose poem titled for this condition, the addressee is told not to be “the martyred slave of time” and to reach this state via “poetry or virtue.” A poem titled for this state notes, “I miss Europe with its ancient parapets!” and was heavily inspired by Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. A poem from the collection Paris Spleen is titled for a command to “Be” in this state. The speaker recalls, “I no longer felt myself guided by haulers” in a poem titled for this condition that a 16-year-old poet sent to Paul Verlaine. For 10 points, a poem by Arthur Rimbaud is titled for a “boat” in what condition?

Using a reduced mass term allows for a constant named for this scientist to account for finite masses. This scientist’s namesake constant is equal to the fine structure constant over 4 pi times the Bohr radius and is usually subscripted infinity. An exotic atom that could theoretically hold many atoms within it is this scientist’s namesake polaron. An equation named for this scientist is used to derive the Lyman and Balmer spectral series for hydrogen. For 10 points, what Swedish physicist names a formula for emissions from electronic transitions in an atom?

One of these beings has a dream in which a man rises into the heavens while another of these beings rides a donkey and falls into a pile of dung. Karna uses the Vasavi Shakti against a figure whose mother was one of these beings; that figure grows in size as he dies and crushes an entire unit of the Kaurava army. In a duel, one of these beings becomes invisible and uses a trap of a million snakes against his opponent. One of these beings defeats the vulture king Jatayu and clips his wings. In an epic, an army of monkeys and bears hurl stones to build a bridge to these beings’ domain. One of these beings transforms into a golden deer so that their king can abduct Rama’s wife Sita. For 10 points, name these demon-like beings who reside in Lanka and are led by Ravana.

A picaresque novel by this author features the laughing baboon Bosse-de-Nage as a companion to a doctor of a field that “explains the universe supplementary to this one.” W. B. Yeats lamented, “after us, the Savage God” after seeing a play by this author whose protagonist frequently swears “by my green candle.” This author started staging one of his plays with marionettes after an uproar at its premiere over the title character’s exclamation of “merde!” with an extra R. This author invented the “science of imaginary solutions,” ’pataphysics. Sequels titled for a man “Cuckolded” and “in Chains” follow a send-up of Macbeth by this author in which the title king goes to war with Russia after he usurps the throne of Poland. For 10 points, name this absurdist French author of Ubu Roi.

Lute music accompanies a monologue in which this actor asserts he will remember “this moment,” “these strawberries,” and “this bowl of milk.” In a film based on a ballad, this actor flogs himself with branches from a birch tree he uprooted, before killing three goat herders who raped his daughter. This actor’s 11 films for a director include Hour of the Wolf, The Virgin Spring, and a film in which his character invites a family of thespians to shelter in his castle from a plague. In that 1957 film, this actor plays Antonius Block, who takes part in a climactic Danse Macabre.

This male actor’s character is horrified when a bullet breaks his violin during a civil war in the 1968 film Shame. Lute music accompanies a monologue in which this actor asserts he will remember “this moment,” “these strawberries,” and “this bowl of milk.” In a film based on a ballad, this actor flogs himself with branches from a birch tree he uprooted, before killing three goat herders who raped his daughter. This actor’s 11 films for a director include Hour of the Wolf, The Virgin Spring, and a film in which his character invites a family of thespians to shelter in his castle from a plague.

Gabriel Nivasch’s “multi-stack” algorithm identifies these structures. An unsolved problem that asks whether these structures produce a double cover reduces to asking about “snarks.” These structures cause Kahn’s algorithm to output an empty list, since they prevent topological sortings. Pollard’s algorithm for integer factorization is named for the eventual resemblance to one of these structures over time. Gosper’s algorithm for detecting these structures improves upon another algorithm that creates a leading and trailing pointer called a “hare” and “tortoise” and is named for Floyd. Detecting these structures by checking already-visited nodes ensures that DFS halts. The absence of these structures defines the “A” in a DAG. For 10 points, name these paths in a graph that eventually lead back to their start.
