description: Publikacja „Od Mickiewicza do Masłowskiej. Adaptacje filmowe literatury polskiej" ukazała się w serii „Literatura na ekranie", jako jej siódmy tom. Wcześniej opublikowano w niej antologie tekstów poświęcone filmowym przygodom literatury hiszpańskiej, angielskiej, amerykańskiej, czeskiej, włoskiej i japońskiej. Książka zawiera osiemnaście artykułów. Wydaje się, że problematyka adaptacji filmowej jest dobrze rozpoznana w piśmiennictwie filmoznawczym polskim i obcym, jednak opracowań jej dotyczących nigdy nie jest za wiele. Proces dostosowywania oryginału literackiego do potrzeb filmowego medium nie ma bowiem stałego charakteru, może dokonywać się z różnym efektem oraz zagarnia wciąż nowe obszary i konteksty – medialne, historyczne, czy teoretyczne. Zagadka udanej adaptacji nieustannie przyciąga twórców filmowych. Niektórzy z nich właśnie poszukiwaniu przepisu na adaptacyjny sukces zawdzięczają reżyserskie spełnienie i stałe miejsce w annałach filmowej historii, a proces adaptowania dzieła literackiego na ekran, dokonujący się wciąż na nowo w wielu odsłonach, może mieć moc stwarzającą, odnawiającą, reinterpretującą – filmowy styl, kanon, czy gatunek.

description: Die 1896 von Paul Fridolin Kehr initiierte Erfassung der bis zum Jahr 1198 ausgestellten Papsturkunden hat sich wieder deutlich belebt. So erschienen in jüngster Zeit zwei Bände zu Spanien und einer zu Böhmen und Mähren. Schon der letztgenannte wurde von Waldemar Könighaus bearbeitet, der nun einen Band zu Polen vorlegt. Seine Polonia Pontificia enthält über 200 Regesten zu den Beziehungen zwischen dem Papst und dem Erzbistum Gnesen samt den Suffragenen sowie dem exempten Bistum Kammin in Pommern. Das Werk umfasst sowohl die Urkunden von Päpsten und päpstlichen Legaten als auch die Eingaben an sie. Der engere Untersuchungszeitraum reicht von ca. 973 bis 1198, der geographische Fokus liegt auf dem modernen Polen und auch auf Teilen von Brandenburg (Lebus) und Vorpommern (Usedom).
Transcriptional regulators of oxidative stress responses in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
Creators: name: Goh, Ying Shyen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Reactive oxygen species are chemically reactive molecules that are crucial for many cellular functions, but their buildup can cause toxic damage, otherwise known as oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is thought to cause or exacerbate many diseases. To defend themselves against oxidative stress, cells mount sophisticated defenses to remove ROS and repair damage caused by ROS. In particular, sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factors induce the expression of cytoprotective enzymes upon stress. In the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans, the transcription factor SKN-1 is considered a “master regulator” that is required to activate many cytoprotective and antioxidant genes, and is critical for resistance to oxidative stress. However, little is known about whether and how SKN-1 interacts with transcriptional coregulators, essential factors that help specify transcriptional responses. Moreover, although evidence exists for SKN-1 independent oxidative stress responses, the responsible transcription factors are unknown. In this thesis, I identified a subunit of the Mediator transcriptional coregulator complex, MDT-15, as a coregulator for skn-1-dependent oxidative stress responses. This role is independent of a previously identified role for MDT-15 in lipid metabolism. Additionally, I found that mdt-15 is also required for skn-1-independent oxidative stress responses. Using a candidate reverse genetic screen, I identified an MDT-15-interacting transcription factor, the nuclear hormone receptor NHR-49, as a regulator of a SKN-1-independent oxidative stress response. Interestingly, some NHR-49-dependent stress response genes were also upregulated in fasting and in long-lived germline-less mutants, indicating a shared response in all three conditions. In summary, this thesis provides the first description of MDT-15 as a coregulator of SKN-1 and identifies a new role for NHR-49 in the oxidative stress response. SKN-1, NHR-49, and MDT-15 are all conserved in humans, and the human orthologs of SKN-1 and NHR-49 also interact with the Mediator complex. Thus, my work offers therapeutic implications for diseases in which oxidative stress plays a role, such as cancer, metabolic diseases, and other age-related diseases.

description: In this paper, we discuss the construction of classifying spaces of fibre sequences in model categories of simplicial sheaves. One construction proceeds via Brown representability and provides a classification in the pointed model category. The second construction is given by the classifying space of the monoid of homotopy self-equivalences of a simplicial sheaf and provides the unpointed classification.

description: The growing interest in the Jewish past that has been visible in Poland in the last two decades gave rise to a wide range of cultural and commemorative initiatives across the whole country. The collection of essays "Jewish Space in Contemporary Poland" is an academic response to these developments. Edited by Erica Lehrer (author of "Jewish Poland Revisited: Heritage Tourism in Unquiet Places" [link]) and Michael Meng (author of "Shattered Spaces: Encountering Jewish Ruins in Postwar Germany and Poland" [link]), the volume explores the question of how today's Poland responds to its Jewish (and not only Jewish) past. As editors Lehrer and Meng note in their introduction, 'space as a common analytical category' (p. 3) is the unifying element of the whole volume. As a result, most authors look at different sites of Jewish past (from centres such as Cracow and Warsaw, to less known Szczecin and Lodz, to entirely local examples of Chmielnik and Brzostek), with only a few of them (Tyszka, Cohn and to some extent Kapralski) trying to look at the issue of space from a wider perspective. Since the authors of the thirteen articles collected in this work represent various academic disciplines (from history to anthropology), "Jewish Space" is a truly interdisciplinary study. This diversity, however, is both a strength and weakness of the book.
title: 'Raising children' : a character-based approach to residential child care
Creators: name: Jones, June
Publisher: name: Strathprints - University of Strathclyde
Year: 2010

description: Traditionally, we tend to think about ethical behaviour as that which concerns our actions towards others. Training children and young adults to behave ethically is a notoriously difficult endeavour, partly because we are not living their life, we are observing it from an outside perspective. People choose to behave in a variety of ways, not all of them exemplary. A different way to approach ethics is to consider what sort of people we ought to be. If we develop character traits that are beneficial to ourselves and others, we find that individual actions will tend towards ethically decent behaviour. This paper will explore a character-based approach to residential child care, where the aim is to develop a child's character so that right action will flow more readily than focusing on the rights and wrongs of individual acts. The aim is not to prescribe a set character that children ought to aim for, but examine how moral character develops and how those with responsibility for the child can aid the developmental process.

Generation of Coherent X-Ray Radiation Through Modulation Compression
Creators: name: Qiang, Ji
name: Wu, Juhao
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Accelerator Physics (physics.acc-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we propose a scheme to generate tunable coherent X-ray radiation for future light source applications. This scheme uses an energy chirped electron beam, a laser modulator, a laser chirper and two bunch compressors to generate a prebunched kilo-Ampere current electron beam from a few tens Ampere electron beam out of a linac. The initial modulation energy wavelength can be compressed by a factor of $1+h_b R_{56}^a$ in phase space, where $h_b$ is the energy bunch length chirp introduced by the laser chirper, $R_{56}^a$ is the momentum compaction factor of the first bunch compressor. As an illustration, we present an example to generate more than 400 MW, 170 attoseconds pulse, 1 nm coherent X-ray radiation using a 60 Ampere electron beam out of the linac and 200 nm laser seed. Both the final wavelength and the radiation pulse length in the proposed scheme are tunable by adjusting the compression factor and the laser parameters.
The helical phase of chiral nematic liquid crystals as the Bianchi VII(0) group manifold

description: We show that the optical structure of the helical phase of a chiral nematic is naturally associated with the Bianchi VII(0) group manifold, of which we give a full account. The Joets-Ribotta metric governing propagation of the extraordinary rays is invariant under the simply transitive action of the universal cover of the three dimensional Euclidean group of two dimensions. Thus extraordinary light rays are geodesics of a left-invariant metric on this Bianchi type VII(0) group. We are able to solve by separation of variables both the wave equation and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for this metric. The former reduces to Mathieu's equation and the later to the quadrantal pendulum equation. We discuss Maxwell's equations for uniaxial optical materials where the configuration is invariant under a group action and develop a formalism to take advantage of these symmetries. The material is not assumed to be impedance matched, thus going beyond the usual scope of transformation optics. We show that for a chiral nematic in its helical phase Maxwell's equations reduce to a generalised Mathieu equation. Our results may also be relevant to helical phases of some magnetic materials and to light propagation in certain cosmological models.

description: Der Sammelband „Bezpieczeństwo energetyczne Polski w ujęciu autonomicznym i zintegrowanym z Unią Europejską" (dt. Die Energiesicherheit Polens aus autonomer und EU-integrierter Sicht) ist das Ergebnis der zweijährigen Arbeit mehrerer polnischer Bildungseinrichtungen und Wirtschaftsinstituten. An der Publikation beteiligten sich insgesamt neun Autoren. Ziel des Bandes ist es, einen Beitrag zur Diskussion über die weitere Energiepolitik der Europäischen Union zu leisten. Dabei wird insbesondere die Unterordnung der Energie- unter die Klimapolitik kritisiert. Die Dekarbonisierungsbemühungen der EU würden gerade im Kohleland Polen zu nicht vertretbaren volkswirtschaftlichen Kosten führen. Diese Kritik stützt sich auf die Analyse dreier Entwicklungsszenarien. Die Analyse kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass eine Gleichberechtigung aller Energiequellen – also die Nicht-Diskriminierung der Kohle – die beste Lösung für Polen wäre.

description: Die Geschichte Deutschlands und Polens ist miteinander verflochten, wie kaum eine andere Geschichte von Nachbarn in Europa. Schon 2011 konnten sich die Fachwelt und die interessierte Öffentlichkeit in der Berliner Ausstellung „Tür an Tür. Polen – Deutschland. 1000 Jahre Kunst und Geschichte" von der Wechselhaftigkeit und den Verflechtungen Deutschlands und Polens überzeugen. [1] Die Ausstellung zeigte anlässlich der polnischen EU-Ratspräsidentschaft die 1000-jährige Beziehungsgeschichte der beiden Völker vom Mittelalter bis in die Gegenwart – gleichsam vom mittelalterlichen Heiligenkult bis zur Solidarność, also von vormodernen religiösen Gemeinsamkeiten bis zur Befreiung von der kommunistischen Herrschaft. Dabei legte man bewusst Wert auf Gemeinsamkeiten und Verbindendes. Es zeigte sich, dass in beiden Ländern die öffentliche Wahrnehmung des Anderen noch dominant von der negativen Erinnerung an die Geschichte bestimmt wird. Angesichts der traumatischen Ereignisse des 20. Jahrhunderts verwundert dies kaum. Die Erforschung dieser deutsch-polnischen Verflechtungen gehört daher seit Jahrzehnten zu den Forschungsdesideraten, zumal die verfassungsgeschichtliche Entwicklung beider Reiche, des Heilige Römische Reichs Deutscher Nation als föderativer Reichsverband [2] sowie Polens als Wahlkönigreich und Adelsrepublik seit der Frühen Neuzeit in Europa jeweils singulär zu sein scheint. Das Deutsche Polen-Institut in Darmstadt will diese Geschichte der Beziehungen in einer fünfbändigen Reihe schreiben. Der Band zur Frühen Neuzeit stammt aus der Feder des Gießener Historikers Hans-Jürgen Bömelburg und seines Danziger Kollegen Edmund Kizik.

description: Assuming the Minimal Flavour Violation hypothesis, we derive the general scalar potential for fields whose background values are the Yukawa couplings. We analyze the minimum of the potential and discuss the fine-tuning required to dynamically generate the mass hierarchies and the mixings between different quark generations. Two main cases are considered, corresponding to Yukawa interactions being effective operators of dimension five or six (or, equivalently, resulting from bi-fundamental and fundamental scalar fields, respectively). At the renormalizable and classical level, no mixing is naturally induced from dimension five Yukawa operators. On the contrary, from dimension six Yukawa operators one mixing angle and a strong mass hierarchy among the generations result.

description: W wyniku przystąpienia Polski do Unii Europejskiej oraz strefy Schengen, nastąpił znaczący wzrost emigracji Polaków do krajów Europy Zachodniej. Zjawisko migracji z krajów środkowo- i wschodnioeuropejskich jest postrzegane jako kolejny rozdział w długiej już historii imigracyjnej w krajach zachodnioeuropejskich. Obywatele tych krajów dostrzegają często pozytywne strony imigracji (tańsza siła robocza i jej rola w rozwoju ekonomicznym). Oponenci podkreślają jednak, że imigranci zabierają miejsca pracy oraz nie integrują się z nowym otoczeniem. Stąd też wszelkie przejawy niewłaściwego zachowania obcokrajowców są nagłaśniane w mediach i służą zdyskredytowaniu otwartej polityki imigracyjnej.
Neu gestaltete Personalentwicklungsinstrumente: Ein Muss für Organisationen mit agilen Arbeitsformen

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: Vielschichtige und unberechenbare Schwankungen in unserer globalen Welt schaffen neue Komplexitäten und Mehrdeutigkeiten. Diese beeinflussen als Treiber massgeblich unsere Wirtschafts- und Arbeitswelt und verunsichern ihre Arbeitnehmenden. Um langfristig überlebensfähig zu bleiben, stellen sich immer mehr Organisationen diesem stetigen Wandel und finden Lösungen für diese Herausforderungen in neuen Arbeitsformen. In diesem Zusammenhang werden Begrifflichkeiten gehört wie New Work, Arbeit 4.0 oder digitale Transformation. Das Verbindende dieser Begrifflichkeiten, respektive die Gemeinsamkeit deren Konzeption, liegt im Trendwort Agilität. In Organisationen mit agilen Arbeitsformen verändert sich die Führungsrolle. Sie wird neu als Dienstleistende, auch Servant leader, verstanden. Die angepasste Führungsrolle führt unweigerlich auch zu einer neuen Organisationskultur. In Verbindung mit der Personalentwicklung sind die jährlichen Mitarbeitenden Gespräche, Bonussysteme oder hierarchieorientierte Talentmodelle für agile Organisationskulturen nicht mehr förderlich. Vielmehr benötigt es zeitnahe Austauschgefässe und Peerfeedbacks. Wie gestaltet demnach eine Organisation mit agilen Arbeitsformen ihr Personalentwicklungsinstrument? Welche Absichten hegen agile Organisationen mit diesem Instrument der Personalentwicklung? Und welche Rolle übernimmt dabei die Führung? Diesen Fragen wird in dieser Arbeit nachgegangen. Literatur über Agilität und Personalmanagement werden beigezogen, um die Fragestellungen zu analysieren. Vorliegende Arbeit liegt im Bereich der qualitativen Forschung. Anhand einer Fallstudie in einer Organisation und mittels Leitfadeninterviews mit deren Mitarbeitenden wurde die Literaturrecherche ergänzt. Das soziokratische Entwicklungsgespräch kann als passendes Personalentwicklungsinstrument in Organisationen mit agilen Arbeitsformen dienen. Durch die Partizipation mehrerer Mitarbeitenden am Gespräch, die Art der Entscheidungsfindung sowie durch Transparenz entspricht das Instrument voll und ganz den Werten der agilen Arbeitswelt. Die Führungsrolle wird im Gespräch auf Augenhöhe wahrgenommen. Die Verantwortung für die persönliche und berufliche Weiterentwicklung liegt bei den Mitarbeitenden selber. Zentral wird dabei die Fähigkeit aller Mitarbeitenden Feedback zu geben und annehmen zu können.

description: Katyń sei ein verfluchter Ort und ein schreckliches Symbol, das einen bis ins Knochenmark hinein erschaudern ließe. [1] Mit diesen Worten kommentierte der ehemalige polnische Präsident Aleksander Kwaśniewski noch am selben Tag den Absturz der Präsidentenmaschine im April 2010, bei dem der damalige Präsident Lech Kaczyński zusammen mit 95 weiteren Insassen bei Smolensk in der Nähe von Katyń ums Leben kam. Dieser Ort, an dem sich wohl eines der bedeutendsten historischen Ereignisse in der polnischen Geschichte des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts zutrug, die Massenerschießungen polnischer Soldaten und Zivilisten durch das sowjetische NKWD im Sommer 1940, hat sich durch den Flugzeugabsturz ein zweites Mal in die polnische Erinnerung eingebrannt – war doch der Anlass von Kaczyńskis Reise ausgerechnet ein Besuch der Gedenkveranstaltung Katyń anlässlich des 70. Jahrestages der Erschießungen. Kwaśniewskis sprachliche Parallele und der von verschiedenen Seiten geäußerte Vorwurf einer russischen Mittäterschaft am Flugzeugunglück von 2010 sind in nationalkonservativen Kreisen der polnischen Öffentlichkeit bis heute ein gern verwendetes Narrativ.

description: Active galactic nuclei (AGN) have Fe II emission from the broad line region (BLR) that differs greatly in strength from object to object. We examine the role of the total and gas-phase iron abundance in determining Fe II strength. Using AGN spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in the redshift range of 0.2 < z < 0.35, we measure the Fe/Ne abundance of the narrow line region (NLR) using the [Fe VII]/[Ne V] line intensity ratio. We find no significant difference in the abundance of Fe relative to Ne in the NLR as a function of Fe II/Hbeta. However, the N II/S II ratio increases a by a factor of 2 with increasing Fe II strength. This indicates a trend in N/S abundance ratio, and by implication in the overall metallicity of the NLR gas, with increasing Fe II strength. We propose that the wide range of Fe II strength in AGN largely results from the selective depletion of Fe into grains in the low ionization portion of the BLR. Photoionization models show that the strength of the optical Fe II lines varies almost linearly with gas-phase Fe abundance, while the ultraviolet Fe II strength varies more weakly. Interstellar depletion of Fe can be as large as two orders of magnitude, sufficient to explain the wide range of optical Fe II strength in AGN. This picture is consistent with the similarity of the BLR radius to the dust sublimation radius and with indications of Fe II emitting gas flowing inwards from the dusty torus.

Taking advantage of the scaling invariance properties of the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation, we exhibit a solution yielding a final state identical to that obtained through a perfectly adiabatic transformation, in a much shorter time. Experimentally, we perform a large trap decompression and displacement within a time comparable to the final radial trapping period. By simultaneously monitoring the BEC and the non-condensed fraction, we demonstrate that our specific trap trajectory is valid both for a quantum interacting many-body system and a classical ensemble of non-interacting particles.

description: In the standard cosmological model, the dimming of distant Type Ia supernovae is explained by invoking the existence of repulsive `dark energy' which is causing the Hubble expansion to accelerate. However this may be an artifact of interpreting the data in an (oversimplified) homogeneous model universe. In the simplest inhomogeneous model which fits the SNe Ia Hubble diagram without dark energy, we are located close to the centre of a void modelled by a Lemaítre-Tolman-Bondi metric. It has been claimed that such models cannot fit the CMB and other cosmological data. This is however based on the assumption of a scale-free spectrum for the primordial density perturbation. An alternative physically motivated form for the spectrum enables a good fit to both SNe Ia (Constitution/Union2) and CMB (WMAP 7-yr) data, and to the locally measured Hubble parameter. Constraints from baryon acoustic oscillations and primordial nucleosynthesis are also satisfied.

The evolution of carsharing : heterogeneity in adoption and impacts
Creators: name: Namazu, Michiko
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: The focus of this thesis lies on understanding how heterogeneity in carsharing (CS) and members at different stages of its adoption in society shape its impacts on Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and car ownership. Past studies have two shortcomings: they do not acknowledge the bias that could arise due to the keen interest of early adopters, and they did not tease out the role of service type in observing outcomes of interest. The serial studies in this thesis found the potential of CS to reduce GHGs and vehicle dependency. However, this does not mean that CS promises to always provide these benefits to everyone. The positive effects found among early adopters do not guarantee that the same effects would be realized among coming adopters especially because early adopters of CS are atypical of the general public in many individual and household characteristics. This is the one of the two primary findings from this thesis: the dynamics of CS service diffusion. As the adoption stage matures, the usage and roles of CS would be changing hence the effects. The second primary finding is the importance of heterogeneity between CS services. Two distinct CS services were found to have different impacts in vehicle ownership change, suggesting that the heterogeneities among CS services affect how the services are utilized; hence what kind of effects the CS services bring to society. Policy makers often generalize various CS services as CS; however, the heterogeneities will need a more careful attention and specifically tailored policies in order to ensure CS impacts continue to align with sound urban transport policy. These dynamic changes will affect how CS services should be maintained. Managing shared properties has been a challenging issue, and this may become even more difficult with more diverse users and CS service models. Active knowledge sharing and collaborations among stakeholders (policy makers, CS providers, and scholars) may be a kay factor to bring further benefits to all. As CS carries the word of “sharing”, if these stakeholders could build a better collaborative “sharing” environment, a large part of the potential of CS may be feasible.

description: Rapidly spinning neutron stars are known to harbour pulsation modes that may become unstable and grow in amplitude by emitting gravitational radiation. Among the various stellar modes, the f-mode is the one typically considered as a promising source of gravitational radiation for ground-based detectors such as LIGO and VIRGO. Improving the existing work in Newtonian stellar models, we present the first calculation of the basic properties of the f-mode instability in rapidly rotating relativistic neutron stars, adopting the Cowling approximation. Using a relativistic polytropic stellar model, we obtain a minimum gravitational growth timescale (for the dominant l=m=4 mode) of the order of 10^3-10^4 s near the Kepler spin frequency Omega_K, which is substantially shorter than the Newtonian value. By accounting for dissipation in neutron star matter, i.e. shear/bulk viscosity and superfluid mutual friction, we calculate the associated f-mode instability window. For our specific stellar model, the instability is active above 0.92 \times Omega_K and for temperatures \sim (10^9 - 2 \times 10^{10}) K, characteristic of newborn neutron stars.

description: Much attention has been given to dark matter explanations of the PAMELA positron fraction and Fermi electronic excesses. For those theories with a TeV-scale WIMP annihilating through a light force-carrier, the associated Sommerfeld enhancement provides a natural explanation of the large boost factor needed to explain the signals, and the light force-carrier naturally gives rise to hard cosmic ray spectra without excess pi0 gamma rays or anti-protons. The Sommerfeld enhancement of the annihilation rate, which at low relative velocities v scales as 1/v, relies on the comparatively low velocity dispersion of the dark matter particles in the smooth halo. Dark matter substructures in which the velocity dispersion is smaller than in the smooth halo have even larger annihilation rates. N-body simulations containing only dark matter predict the existence of such structures, for example subhalos and caustics, and the effects of these substructures on dark matter indirect detection signals have been studied extensively. The addition of baryons into cosmological simulations of disk-dominated galaxies gives rise to an additional substructure component, a dark disk. The disk has a lower velocity dispersion than the spherical halo component by a factor ~6, so the contributions to dark matter signals from the disk can be more significant in Sommerfeld models than for WIMPs without such low-velocity enhancements. We consider the consequences of a dark disk on the observed signals of cosmic rays as measured by Fermi and PAMELA in models where the WIMP annihilations are into a light boson. We find that both the PAMELA and Fermi results are easily accomodated by scenarios in which a disk signal is included with the standard spherical halo signal. Limits from extrapolations to the center of the galaxy can also be modified.

description: We calculate running coupling corrections for the lowest-order gluon production cross section in high energy hadronic and nuclear scattering using the BLM scale-setting prescription. In the final answer for the cross section the three powers of fixed coupling are replaced by seven factors of running coupling, five in the numerator and two in the denominator, forming a 'septumvirate' of running couplings, analogous to the 'triumvirate' of running couplings found earlier for the small-x BFKL/BK/JIMWLK evolution equations. It is interesting to note that the two running couplings in the denominator of the 'septumvirate' run with complex-valued momentum scales, which are complex conjugates of each other, such that the production cross section is indeed real. We use our lowest-order result to conjecture how running coupling corrections may enter the full fixed-coupling kT-factorization formula for gluon production which includes non-linear small-x evolution.

description: We find a relation between mixed volumes of several polytopes and the convex hull of their union, deducing it from the following fact: the mixed volume of a collection of polytopes only depends on the product of their support functions (rather than on the individual support functions). For integer polytopes, this dependence is essentially a certain specialization of the isomorphism between two well-known combinatorial models for the cohomology of toric varieties, however, this construction has not been extended to arbitrary polytopes so far (partially due to the lack of combinatorial tools capable of substituting for toric geometry, when vertices are not rational). We provide such an extension, which leads to an explicit formula for the mixed volume in terms of the product of support functions, and may also be interesting because of the combinatorial tools (tropical varieties with polynomial weights and their corner loci) that appear in our construction. As an example of another possible application of these new objects, we notice that every tropical subvariety in a tropical manifold M can be locally represented as the intersection of M with another tropical variety (possibly with negative weights), and conjecture certain generalizations of this fact to singular M. The above fact about subvarieties of a tropical manifold may be of independent interest, because it implies that the intersection theory on a tropical manifold, which was recently constructed by Allerman, Francois, Rau and Shaw, is locally induced from the ambient vector space.

description: We develop a theoretical framework that combines measurements of galaxy-galaxy lensing, galaxy clustering, and the galaxy stellar mass function in a self-consistent manner. While considerable effort has been invested in exploring each of these probes individually, attempts to combine them are still in their infancy despite the potential of such combinations to elucidate the galaxy-dark matter connection, to constrain cosmological parameters, and to test the nature of gravity. In this paper, we focus on a theoretical model that describes the galaxy-dark matter connection based on standard halo occupation distribution techniques. Several key modifications enable us to extract additional parameters that determine the stellar-to-halo mass relation and to simultaneously fit data from multiple probes while allowing for independent binning schemes for each probe. In a companion paper, we demonstrate that the model presented here provides an excellent fit to galaxy-galaxy lensing, galaxy clustering, and stellar mass functions measured in the COSMOS survey from z=0.2 to z=1.0. We construct mock catalogs from numerical simulations to investigate the effects of sample variance and covariance on each of the three probes. Finally, we analyze and discuss how trends in each of the three observables impact the derived parameters of the model. In particular, we investigate the various features of the observed galaxy stellar mass function (low-mass slope, plateau, knee, and high-mass cut-off) and show how each feature is related to the underlying relationship between stellar and halo mass. We demonstrate that the observed plateau feature in the stellar mass function at Mstellar~2x10^10 Msun is due to the transition that occurs in the stellar-to-halo mass relation at Mhalo ~ 10^12 Msun from a low-mass power-law regime to a sub-exponential function at higher stellar mass.

title: Practices in and attitudes towards staff vetting in children's residential centres in the Republic of Ireland
Creators: name: Hanly, Catherine
Publisher: name: Strathprints - University of Strathclyde
Year: 2010

description: This paper documents a summary of research which was conducted as part of the requirements for the completion of an MA in Child, Family and Community Studies at Dublin Institute of Technology. The aim of the study was twofold; to explore the practices of residential child care centre managers in vetting staff for employment in residential child care, and to explore the attitudes of these managers towards current vetting requirements in the Republic of Ireland. A wide range of literature exists documenting all aspects of residential care provision for young people under the age of eighteen in state care. The material examined for the purposes of this research covers both Irish and UK perspectives as well as international practice and experience in the area. This literature has consistently highlighted the particular vulnerability of this group of young people. Also highlighted in within the literature is the need for a range of safeguarding measures for these young people because of this identified vulnerability. Not least amongst these measures are comprehensive vetting practices which have been highlighted particularly through various Inquiry reports both in the UK and Ireland (Warner, 1992; Department of Health, 1994; Department of Health 1996; Corby et al., 2001). The literature review undertaken for this study demonstrated that there has been little direct research conducted on vetting either in Ireland or elsewhere and, in particular research that examines the views of those responsible for this task.
Exploring the influence of creative thinking on the pedagogy of primary-aged children’s writing
Creators: name: Copping, Adrian J.
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: This two year case study explored the influence that creative thinking has on writing pedagogy within a primary school context. Whilst the fields of creative thinking and writing pedagogy have been researched extensively, there is a paucity of research that explores how they are inextricably connected. It is useful to consider this connection in the context of firstly, children’s writing and thinking development and secondly the context of an English education system driven by high stakes testing that puts an emphasis on product not process. This testing arguably drives schools’ pedagogic decisions towards a focus on attaining good marks in the test often at the expense of understanding and knowledge application. The study involved design and facilitation of writing workshops for six primary classes in one school over a two year period. Data were collected through observation, follow-up interviews and focus groups and documentation analysis. Data were analysed using a thematic approach informing the development of a ‘think for writing’ planning model for practitioners. Analysis revealed several pre-requisites for children’s development of creative thinking. Notably, working within a classroom that is developed to enable thinking through consideration of task, developing learner agency and valuing the process of writing. For thinking to then influence writing, teachers must develop creative self-efficacy in their learners through teaching in between the building blocks of the writing process as much as on the blocks themselves. The findings have implications for teaching of writing in primary schools, such as developing writing pedagogies that both satisfy a high-stakes testing and accountability agenda whilst developing creative thinking. There are also implications for developing primary English modules in teacher education that emphasise the importance of working in between those writing building blocks. Recommendations are made for the development of these approaches utilising my ‘think for writing’ framework.
