title: THE ROLE OF TIS1 AND TIS21 IN TRANSFORMATION OF JB6 CELLS
Creators: name: IIanchiezian, Subathra
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 1995

description: The 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) inducible sequence genes are primary response genes induced in Swiss 3T3 cells by TPA (Lim, et al., 1987). Previous studies showed that a subset of TIS genes, TIS21 and TIS1, were preferentially induced by TPA and also by epidermal growth factor in promotion resistant (P-) murine epidermal JB6 cells. Their protein levels were also greater in TPA-treated promotion resistant (P-) cells than promotion sensitive (P+) cells (Cmarik, et al., 1994). Based on these observations, it was proposed that the high level of TIS1 and TIS21 proteins in P- cells could be a factor that inhibits tumor promoterinduced transformation. The strategy used to test this hypothesis was to cause repression of TIS1 or TIS21 protein synthesis by constructing TIS21 or TIS1 antisense RNA expression plasmids. TIS21 cDNA was subcloned in the pcDNA3 vector and TIS1 in the pCEP4 vector. Antisense orientation was confirmed by restriction digestion and sequencing. These plasmids were transfected into P- cells subsequently grown in selective medium containing G418 medium for TIS21 transfectants and hygromycin for TIS1 transfectants. Greater than 25 independent clones of TIS21 or TIS1 were obtained. They were then analyzed for introduced TIS21 or TIS1 antisense RNA expression by northern analysis. The endogenous TIS21 or TIS1 mRNA was expressed, whereas the antisense RNA expression was not observed. Protein extracts from some TIS21 or TIS1 transfectants were subjected to western analysis. There was no decrease in the TPA-induced level of TIS21 or TIS1 proteins in antisense transfectants compared with that of the vector controls as would be observed with functional antisense. Thus, if any antisense RNAs were expressed, they did not inhibit the synthesis of their respective proteins. Southern analysis was carried out to determine if TIS1 or TIS21 antisense DNA is present in the cell. Of six TIS21 transfectants tested, none showed the presence of the TI521 antisense DNA, whereas two out of six TIS1 transfectants, pET1j and pET1p appeared to contain the TIS1 antisense DNA. These observations reflect that most of the clones obtained do not have the introduced gene and the few that do have the gene did not express the antisense RNA. Probably during clonal selection the cells lost the antisense DNA and most of the clones obtained are the ones without the antisense DNA. Because no clones with functional antisense that effectively blocked TIS1 or TIS21 protein induction in the P- cells were isolated, the hypothesis that the high level of TIS1 or TIS21 proteins in the P- cells can inhibit tumor promoter-induced transformation could not be validated.
~115 GeV and ~143 GeV Higgs mass considerations within the Composite Particles Model
Creators: name: Popovic, Marko B.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The radiatively generated Higgs mass is obtained by requiring that leading "divergences" are cancelled in both 2D and 4D. This predicts one or more viable modes; the k=1 mode mass is m_H\cong2/3 m_t\cong115GeV whereas the k=2 mode is m_H\cong143GeV. These findings are interpreted within the Composite Particles Model (CPM), [Popovic 2002, 2010], with the massive top quark being a composite structure composed of 3 fundamental O quarks (O\bar{O}O) and the massive Higgs scalar being a color-neutral meson like structure composed of 2 fundamental O quarks (\bar{O}O). The CPM predicts that the Z mass generation is mediated primarily by a top - anti top whereas the Higgs mass is generated primarily by a O - anti O interactions. The relationship [Popovic 2010] between top Yukawa coupling and strong QCD coupling, obtained by requiring that top - anti top channel is neither attractive or repulsive at tree level at \surd s\congM_Z, defines the Z mass. In addition, this relationship indirectly defines the electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) vacuum expectation value (VEV), the CPM Higgs mass and potentially the EWSB scale.

description: We find the canonical and Belinfante energy-momentum tensors and their nonzero traces. We note that the dilatation symmetry is broken and the divergence of the dilatation current is proportional to the topological mass of the gauge field. It was demonstrated that the gauge field possesses the `scale dimensionality' d=1/2. Maxwell - Chern - Simons topologically massive gauge field theory in 2+1 dimensions is formulated in the first-order formalism. It is shown that 6x6-matrices of the relativistic wave equation obey the Duffin - Kemmer - Petiau algebra. The Hermitianizing matrix of the relativistic wave equation is given. The projection operators extracting solutions of field equations for states with definite energy-momentum and spin are obtained. The 5x5-matrix Schrodinger form of the equation is derived after the exclusion of non-dynamical components, and the quantum-mechanical Hamiltonian is obtained. Projection operators extracting physical states in the Schrodinger picture are found.

description: We consider the incompressible Euler or Navier-Stokes (NS) equations on a d-dimensional torus T^d; the quadratic term in these equations arises from the bilinear map sending two velocity fields v, w : T^d -> R^d into v . D w, and also involves the Leray projection L onto the space of divergence free vector fields. We derive upper and lower bounds for the constants in some inequalities related to the above quadratic term; these bounds hold, in particular, for the sharp constants K_{n d} = K_n in the basic inequality || L(v . D w)||_n <= K_n || v ||_n || w ||_{n+1}, where n in (d/2, + infinity) and v, w are in the Sobolev spaces H^n, H^{n+1} of zero mean, divergence free vector fields of orders n and n+1, respectively. As examples, the numerical values of our upper and lower bounds are reported for d=3 and some values of n. Some practical motivations are indicated for an accurate analysis of the constants K_n.

description: Let V be a finite set of points in the plane, not contained in a line. Assume |V| = n is an odd number, and |L \cap V| \leq 3 for every line L which is spanned by V. We prove that every simple line L_{a,b} in V creates a simple wedge (i.e., a triple {a, b, c} \subseteq V such that L_{a,b} and L_{a,c} are simple lines). We also show that both restrictions on V (namely |V| is odd and |L \cap V| \leq 3) are needed. We conjecture, further, that if |V | = n is an odd number then V contains a simple wedge, even if V is not 3-bounded. We introduce a method for proving this, which gives (in this paper) partial results.

From Orientalism to Islamophobia: Media representation of Arabs and Muslims on the pre- and post-9/11 Hollywood on-screen and Egyptian Cinema
Creators: name: Bajuwaiber, Noor Mubarak S.
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2023
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The primary aim of this thesis is to explore negative representations of Arabs and Muslims through an analysis of Hollywood films released pre- and post-9/11 in the context of contemporary theories and concepts, such as neo-Orientalism, postcolonialism and Islamophobia. Pre- and post-9/11 Hollywood films are analysed in relation to their sociohistorical contexts and the argument that Islamophobia could be generated from the latest transformation of Orientalism or as a response to multiculturalism and transnationalism. The approach employs textual methods to study the use of language and power in the form of social practice. This includes employing context, critical discourse, and thematic and semiotic methodologies. This thesis is guided by a discourse on theoretical approaches in performing a cultural analysis of the films selected. Moreover, this analysis is interpreted through a critical theoretical framework within a sociological and historical context. Through an examination of past research papers, the researcher identified several aspects of specific films that had a major effect on the presentation of Arabs and Muslims in Hollywood, including the emergence of new discourses about self-identity and negative representations of Arabs and Muslims, the re-emergence of Orientalism and the portrayal of Islamic fundamentalism in Egyptian cinema. Furthermore, the researcher identified that these films link Muslims to the issue of terrorism and portray them in a negative light, especially in U.S., Europe and the Middle East. Additionally, the study investigates how Islamophobia said to be promoted in Hollywood and Egyptian cinema and explores discourses related to broader social processes. The study analyses a selection of films that represent Arabs and Muslims in terms of their cinematic, structure, philosophy, and conceptual framework.

description: Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations under a dc current bias are experimentally studied on a Hall bar sample of single layer graphene. In dc resistance, the bias current shows the common damping effect on the SdH oscillations and the effect can be well accounted for by an elevated electron temperature that is found to be linearly dependent on the current bias. In differential resistance, a novel phase inversion of the SdH oscillations has been observed with increasing dc bias, namely we observe the oscillation maxima develop into minima and vice versa. Moreover, it is found that the onset biasing current, at which a SdH extremum is about to invert, is linearly dependent on the magnetic field of the SdH extrema. These observations are quantitatively explained with the help of a general SdH formula.

Transcending identity in settler colonial states : considerations for decolonial solidarity
Creators: name: Holy, Talia Devi
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: In recent years, discourses in academic and activist circles increasingly emphasize the potential failures of identity politics, highlighting the tendency of political movements based in identity to prevent unity or become co-opted by elites. Because of this, many activist groups are reformulating or transcending the role of identity in their political movements. However, critics of identity politics often fail to account for the fact that the erasure of Indigenous people’s identities is a deliberate tool of settler colonialism; challenging the role of identity in political movements thus risks furthering settler colonial processes. As such, this thesis engages with the question of how non-Indigenous people can reformulate the role of identity in their political movements without undermining a politics of solidarity with Indigenous nations and their resurgence movements. I begin by laying out the distinction between recursive and destructive power, which critically informs political movements’ differing approaches to identity. By analyzing power as predominantly recursive, or creating the subjects it intends to marginalize, many theorists of identity politics ignore the ways in which power must critically destroy or disappear Indigenous identity in order to establish settler state sovereignty. Thus, moves to reformulate non-Indigenous identity in non-Indigenous political movements should not implicate the role of identity in Indigenous political movements, given that Indigenous political - movements respond to destructive, rather than recursive, power. Further, understanding the functioning of recursive and destructive power reveals the potentially intertwined nature of resistance to these differing forms of power. With this in mind, I look to the #NoDAPL protests to argue that non-Indigenous people can reformulate the role of identity in their political movements by engaging with identity subject to destructive power. Through exploring the recursive construction of the terrorist, the role of anti-capitalism, and the existence of identity beyond destructive power at Standing Rock, it is apparent that identity can be reformulated in ways that fundamentally challenges the functioning of settler states, creating a broad-based politics of solidarity between Indigenous and non-Indigenous political movements.
STATIC AND DYNAMIC ANALYSES FOR PROTECTING THE JAVA SOFTWARE EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT

Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2020

description: In my thesis, I present three projects on which I have worked during my Ph.D. studies. All of them focus on software protection in the Java environment with static and dynamic techniques for control-flow and data-dependency analysis. More specifically, the first two works are dedicated to the problem of deserialization of untrusted data in Java. In the first, I present a defense system that was designed for protecting the Java Virtual Machine, along with the results that were obtained. In the second, I present a recent research project that aims at automatic generation of deserialization attacks, to help identifying them and increasing protection. The last discussed work concerns another branch of software protection: the authentication on short-distance channels (or the lack thereof) in Android APKs. In said work, I present a tool that was built for automatically identifying the presence of high-level authentication in Android apps. I thoroughly discuss experiments, limitations and future work for all three projects, concluding with general principles that bring these works together, and can be applied when facing related security issues in high-level software protection.
ASPETTI CONCETTUALI DELLA PROPRIET� INTELLETTUALE DEL MATERIALE GENETICO
Creators: name: SILVESTRO, IVO ANTONIO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2016

description: Since the development of molecular biology, in the first half of Twentieth Century, genes and DNA are conceived using several metaphors and conceptual frames: genetic information, a text, a book, a blueprint, a computer program, the destiny of the individual. I have searched and analyzed these conceptual frames in the debate about the patentability of DNA, in particular in the Myriad case (Ass'n for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics, US Supreme Court). In the arguments against genetic patents there is a prevalence of holistic and nondeterminism metaphors (DNA as the book or the language of life, or as the soul of the individual); in the arguments for genetic patents, the DNA is often conceived as a chemical compound or with deterministic and mechanical metaphors (DNA as a blueprint).
Urban Governance and Elite Networks in Chester, c. 1750-1840
Creators: name: Nagamine, Raku
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2023
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis explores change and continuity in the structure of networks created around leading citizens who participated in the urban governance of Chester between 1750 and 1840. The aim of this study is to analyse the orthodoxy views, which have shaped the nature of debates on English towns in the long eighteenth century: firstly, Sidney and Beatrice Webb’s contention that municipal corporations were unable to address the challenges of urbanization effectively before Municipal Reform in 1835, because they could not collaborate with other governing institutions; secondly, the long-held belief that Municipal Reform, which involved institutional transformation of the corporations, marked a turning point in English urban governance. Before Municipal Reform, the corporation of Chester, which enjoyed the patronage of one of the wealthiest aristocratic families in Britain, the Grosvenors, was the leading local authority. Complaints about their dominance fuelled political partisanship and divided the city’s inhabitants. At the same time, the corporation co-existed with different governing institutions, including long-standing authorities such as the cathedral chapter and new civic institutions for architectural, medical, and intellectual improvement. The nature of the relationships between the corporation and these other bodies – whether conflictual or cooperative – underpins this thesis. This thesis involves an examination of connections and interactions between leading citizens who were represented in different governing institutions, including the membership of both the reformed and unreformed corporations. It will reveal the extent to which leading citizens collaborated in urban improvement, transcending institutional boundaries, and the extent to which leading citizens in the unreformed period were connected with those who dominated urban governance after 1835. This thesis will demonstrate that there was greater collaboration and dynamism in Chester’s urban governance before and after Municipal Reform than historians of incorporated towns have previously believed.

description: "Everything — or almost everything — I've related in this book has happened to me or to people I met a long time ago..." Ana María Matute, one of Spain's most prolific and iconic writers of the 20th century, chooses these words to introduce her reader to the literary world of her making in a collection of short selections entitled Stories of the Artámila. These works are autobiographical and occurred during her recovery from chronic kidney problems in her childhood. This onset of this condition prompted her parents to remove her from their native city of Barcelona for a period of respite and recuperation. As a result, she was sent to live with her grandparents in a small town in the mountains, Mansilla de la Sierra in the province of La Rioja in northern Spain. The characters, experiences and places she shares with her readers in this collection are factual, and as a result they ring with an air of truth and genuineness that provides depth and meaning to the themes and message which pervade her work. There are twenty-two stories in the complete collection; of these, I have chosen six in order to present to the English-speaking community the opportunity to relish an accurate sampling of her work that extols the genius of her literary craft.

description: We present a new approach to the question of properly defining energy and momenta for non asymptotically Minkowskian spaces in general relativity, in the case where these energy and momenta are conserved. In order to do this, we first prove that there always exist some special Gauss coordinates for which the conserved linear and angular three-momenta vanish. This allows us to consider the case of creatable universes (the universes whose proper 4-momenta vanish) in a consistent way, which is the main interest of the paper. When applied to the Friedmann-Lema{\^ı}tre-Robertson-Walker case, perturbed or not, our formalism leads to previous results, according to most literature on the subject. Some future work that should be done is mentioned.

description: Abstract (IT) L’articolo ha lo scopo di illustrare il quadro normativo in cui ascrivere la tutela del software, in funzione della sua peculiare dicotomia tra opera letteraria e invenzione. Infatti il software è innanzitutto linguaggio, ovvero un complesso di istruzioni informatiche che compongono un programma per elaboratore. Se tale espressione è dotata di creatività e originalità, può essere invocata la tutela offerta dal Diritto d’Autore. Quando il software è in grado di sviluppare un effetto tecnico ulteriore e offrire soluzioni ad un problema tecnico si potrà verificare la sussistenza degli ulteriori requisiti necessari e sufficienti affinché possa essere invocata la tutela brevettuale. In ambito medicale, i software e, in particolare, le App sono divenute un costante ausilio per gli operatori sanitari. Oltre alla difficoltà nell’individuazione della tutela invocabile occorre altresì considerare le autorizzazioni necessarie affinchè le App possano essere validate e usate come dispositivo medici. Abstract (EN) This article is aimed at illustrating the regulatory framework where ascribe the protection of a software, on the basis of the dichotomy between literary work and invention. Indeed, a software is, first and foremost, a language, i.e. a set of computer instructions that builds a computer program. If this expression is characterized by creativity and originality, the protection to be invoked will be provided by Copyright. When a software can develop a further technical effect and solve technical problem, there could be the requirements for a patent protection. In the medical field, software, including Apps, is becoming a constant aid for healthcare professionals. In addition to the difficulty in identifying the invocable protection, the validation and use of software and Apps can be subject to the granting of the necessary authorizations.

description: Under the fluctuation of the electric charge and atomic mass, this paper considers the theory of the thin film depletion layer formation of an ensemble of finitely excited, non-empty $d/f$-orbital heavy materials, from the thermodynamic geometric perspective. At each state of the local adiabatic evolutions, we examine the nature of the thermodynamic parameters, \textit{viz.}, electric charge and mass, changing at each respective embeddings. The definition of the intrinsic Riemannian geometry and differential topology offers the properties of (i) local heat capacities, (ii) global stability criterion and (iv) global correlation length. Under the Gaussian fluctuations, such an intrinsic geometric consideration is anticipated to be useful in the statistical coating of the thin film layer of a desired quality-fine high cost material on a low cost durable coatant. From the perspective of the daily-life applications, the thermodynamic geometry is thus intrinsically self-consistent with the theory of the local and global economic optimizations. Following the above procedure, the quality of the thin layer depletion could self-consistently be examined to produce an economic, quality products at a desired economic value.

description: Noble metals adopt close-packed structures at ambient pressure and rarely undergo structural transformation at high pressures. Platinum (Pt), in particular, is normally considered to be unreactive and is therefore not expected to form hydrides under pressure. We predict that platinum hydride (PtH) has a lower enthalpy than its constituents solid Pt and molecular hydrogen at pressures above 21.5 GPa. We have calculated structural phase transitions from tetragonal to hexagonal close-packed or face-centered cubic (fcc) PtH between 70 and 80 GPa. Linear response calculations indicate that PtH is a superconductor at these pressures with a critical temperature of about 10--25 K. These findings help to shed light on recent observations of pressure-induced metallization and superconductivity in hydrogen-rich materials. We show that formation of fcc metal hydrides under pressure is common among noble metal hydrides and examine the possibility of superconductivity in these materials.

Beyond a politics of integration : tactical cosmopolitanism among Iranian immigrants in Los Angeles
Creators: name: Khajeh Hosseiny, Melika

description: Western liberal democracies have experienced increased political anxieties vis-à-vis migration, with a rise in anti-immigrant sentiment due to perceptions of immigrants threatening national identity and norms (Hainmueller & Hopkins, 2014). States promote migrant integration, encouraging immigrants to become more “embedded” in their host society’s cultural, social, economic, and political structures, as a diversity management response (Valtonen, 2016). However, recent scholarship has begun to criticize the very notion of ‘immigrant integration’ for upholding neocolonial power, maintaining purified notions of class and of race, implicitly characterizing immigrants as ‘objects of problematization’, and creating images of society that demarcate ‘us’ versus ‘them’ (Schinkel, 2017). On a pragmatic level, policies under the integration umbrella have been argued to fail to address the nature of ‘superdiversity,’ which encompasses an increased number of new, multiple-origin, transnationally connected, socio-economically differentiated and legally stratified immigrants. Thus, we are presented with a tension between the necessary normative criticisms of the idea of integration, the limited analytical utility of integration in a superdiverse society, and the tangible and often material benefits of integration. How can we reconceptualize the politics of integration in an era of super-diversity? I argue that by placing an emphasis on entering the ‘mainstream,’ scholars miss an important dimension of immigrant social mobility that involves not ‘bridging’ into the mainstream, but instead participating in a host society through ways that transcend a national demarcation. Through an assessment of Iranian immigrants in Los Angeles, I demonstrate how Landau and Freemantle’s concept of ‘tactical cosmopolitanism’ serves as a reconciliation between these divides on the benefits of integration and its necessary criticisms. Iranian immigrants in Los Angeles choose not to mainstream their identity with a host society. Rather, they practice social mobility in ways that do not constitute traditional bridging—demonstrated by tactical cosmopolitanism—while nonetheless reaping the benefits of ‘integration.’

DEMONSTRATOR SYSTEM FOR THE PHASE-I UPGRADE OF THE TRIGGER READOUT ELECTRONICS OF THE ATLAS LIQUID ARGON CALORIMETERS AT THE LHC
Creators: name: CAMPLANI, ALESSANDRA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2018

description: I started my Ph.D. at the Physics Department of the Universit`a degli Studi di Milano in November 2014. I carried out my research activity within the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, mainly focusing on the upgrade of the ATLAS Liquid Argon (LAr) electromagnetic calorimeter Phase-I trigger electronics. The main topic of my doctoral project is the implementation of VHDL firmware for the Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) of the new calorimeter trigger electronics. I spent the first of the three Ph.D. years working in Milano and the last two years at CERN, supported by a contract awarded from the ATLAS LAr calorimeter group. During the three years of activity, I contributed to the development and maintenance of the FPGA readout firmware for the LAr Phase-I demonstrator system, set up and installed in the ATLAS detector during summer 2014. The purpose of the system is to validate the energy reconstruction and collect real collision data using a pre-prototype of the future front-end and back-end electronics. In addition, I joined the group working on the firmware development for the FPGAs of the new Phase-I back-end boards. I was asked to be in charge of the firmware module for decoding the Timing Trigger and Control (TTC) signals coming from the LHC central trigger processor.

description: We believe that a wide range of physical processes conspire to shape the observed galaxy population but we remain unsure of their detailed interactions. The semi-analytic model (SAM) of galaxy formation uses multi-dimensional parameterisations of the physical processes of galaxy formation and provides a tool to constrain these underlying physical interactions. Because of the high dimensionality, the parametric problem of galaxy formation may be profitably tackled with a Bayesian-inference based approach, which allows one to constrain theory with data in a statistically rigorous way. In this paper we develop a SAM in the framework of Bayesian inference. We show that, with a parallel implementation of an advanced Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo algorithm, it is now possible to rigorously sample the posterior distribution of the high-dimensional parameter space of typical SAMs. As an example, we characterise galaxy formation in the current $Λ$CDM cosmology using the stellar mass function of galaxies as an observational constraint. We find that the posterior probability distribution is both topologically complex and degenerate in some important model parameters, suggesting that thorough explorations of the parameter space are needed to understand the models. We also demonstrate that because of the model degeneracy, adopting a narrow prior strongly restricts the model. Therefore, the inferences based on SAMs are conditional to the model adopted. Using synthetic data to mimic systematic errors in the stellar mass function, we demonstrate that an accurate observational error model is essential to meaningful inference.

NEUTRINOS AND THE LARGE SCALE STRUCTURE OF THE UNIVERSE

Year: 2017

description: Present-day cosmology is experiencing a rather exciting season, as many observations of unprecedented quality either have recently been performed or are just about to be carried out. In this framework, long-standing unsolved questions, such as the nature and dynamics of cold dark matter and dark energy, the laws of gravity on cosmological scales, and the detailed physics of gravitational collapse and galaxy formation, might finally be assessed and hopefully find some answers. However, to maximally extract information from such copious and precise data, theoretical modeling must join the effort and push predictions to higher levels of accuracy. In the present thesis, I investigate a number of aspects regarding the role of massive neutrinos in cosmology, considering in particular their effects on the Large Scale Structure of the universe. The presence of massive neutrinos leaves its trace on many cosmological observables, requiring us to carefully account for their effects in order not to introduce systematic errors in our theories, but also allowing us to set constraints on quantities such as the number of neutrino species, their total mass and mass hierarchy. For this reason, the study of cosmological neutrinos is not only encompassed within the boundaries of cosmology, but reaches out to fundamental physics. In the first part of my work, I present a new method to set the initial conditions for cosmological simulations that include massive neutrinos. I then move to the study of the clustering ratio (a cosmological probe that quantifies the clustering properties of the galaxy distribution) in the presence of neutrinos, assessing its constraining power using both current data (from SDSS) and a forecast of a Euclid-like survey. Finally I study the possible degeneracies between neutrino effects and the parameters introduced to account for the galaxy-matter bias in some state-of-the art models.

description: We study some properties of the Venereau polynomials b_m=y+x^m(xz+y(yu+z^2)), a sequence of proposed counterexamples to the Abhyankar-Sathaye embedding conjecture and the Dolgachev-Weisfeiler conjecture. It is well known that these are hyperplanes and residual coordinates, and for m at least 3, they are C[x]-coordinates. For m=1,2, it is only known that they are 1-stable C[x]-coordinates. We show that b_2 is in fact a C[x]-coordinate. We introduce the notion of Venereau-type polynomials, and show that these are all hyperplanes, and residual coordinates. We show that some of these Venereau-type polynomials are in fact C[x]-coordinates; the rest remain potential counterexamples to the embedding and other conjectures. For those that we show to be coordinates, we also show that any automorphism with one of them as a component is stably tame. The remainder are stably tame, 1-stable C[x]-coordinates.

L'AMMINISTRAZIONE DELLA GIUSTIZIA CRIMINALE NAPOLEONICA. A BOLOGNA FRA PRASSI E INSEGNAMENTO DEL DIRITTO PENALE
Creators: name: HOXHA, DAMIGELA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano

description: This research was focused on the study of the rich materials - not yet properly cataloged - which are kept in the State Archives of Bologna, with particular reference to the Criminal Court of Appeal in the Napoleonic era. The choice of a judiciary in Bologna appeared, from a methodological profile, full of different suggestions, given that - as we know - Bologna was and still is a university town for excellence with a strong tradition in the field of legal science and, at the same time, a center of great importance in the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy; Bologna is therefore a privileged place to measure the comparison between the doctrinal tradition and the french innovation. In the passage from ancien r�gime to the Napoleonic age the role of the judge has faced the hegemonic will of the legislature to control the iurisdictio and the process. The class of judges, which in previous centuries had enjoyed considerable autonomy and that sometimes felt they could judge 'like God', was confronted with the projects of reform and streamlining regulations that invested primarily the exercise of justice, the procedure and the judiciary.
