English | ISBN: 1470441764 | 2020 | 105 pages | PDF | 1200 KB
"The so-called "pinched disk" model of the Mandelbrot set is due to A. Douady, J. H. Hubbard and W. P. Thurston. It can be described in the language of geodesic laminations. The combinatorial model is the quotient space of the unit disk under an equivalence relation that, loosely speaking, "pinches" the disk in the plane (whence the name of the model). The significance of the model lies in particular in the fact that this quotient is planar and therefore can be easily visualized. The conjecture that the Mandelbrot set is actually homeomorphic to this model is equivalent to the celebrated MLC conjecture stating that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected. For parameter spaces of higher degree polynomials no combinatorial model is known. One possible reason may be that the higher degree analog of the MLC conjecture is known to be false. We investigate to which extent a geodesic lamination is determined by the location of its critical sets and when different choices of critical sets lead to essentially thesame lamination. This yields models of various parameter spaces of laminations similar to the "pinched disk" model of the Mandelbrot set"-

English | 2015 | ISBN: 0801479894 | EPUB | pages: 368 | 1.0 mb
Compelled by the extent to which globalization has changed the nature of labor relations, Harry C. Katz, Thomas A. Kochan, and Alexander J. S. Colvin give us the first textbook to focus on the workplace outcomes of the production of goods and services in emerging countries. In Labor Relations in a Globalizing World they draw lessons from the United States and other advanced industrial countries to provide a menu of options for management, labor, and government leaders in emerging countries. They include discussions based in countries such as China, Brazil, India, and South Africa which, given the advanced levels of economic development they have already achieved, are often described as "transitional," because the labor relations practices and procedures used in those countries are still in a state of flux.

Los intentos europeos de apaciguarle, sobre todo en Munich en 1938, fracasaron, y la Alemania nazi se tragó Austria y Checoslovaquia en 1939. Italia también estaba en marcha e invadió Albania en abril de 1939. Sin embargo, la gota que colmó el vaso fue la invasión alemana de Polonia el 1 de septiembre de ese año. Dos días después, Francia y Gran Bretaña declararon la guerra a Alemania, y la Segunda Guerra Mundial había comenzado en serio.

En el año 427 a.C., la antigua ciudad-estado griega de Atenas florecía. Unos 80 años antes, los atenienses habían formado la primera democracia autorrepresentativa de la historia, la Guerra del Peloponeso contra Esparta acababa de comenzar y Sócrates empezaba a sentar las bases de lo que sería la filosofía occidental. Ninguna de las obras de Sócrates sobrevivió a la Antigüedad, por lo que la mayor parte de lo que se sabe sobre él procede de los escritos de sus seguidores, entre los que destaca Platón. Lo que se sabe de Sócrates es que parecía hacer carrera en la filosofía, y Platón quería seguir sus pasos. Sin embargo, a pesar de la influencia de la vida de Sócrates en sus seguidores, fue la muerte de Sócrates en torno al año 399 a.C. lo que realmente les marcó. Platón quedó tan amargado por el juicio de Sócrates en Atenas que se amargó por completo con la democracia ateniense, y Aristóteles criticaría más tarde a los políticos que se basaban en la retórica; cuando la propia vida de Aristóteles se vio amenazada, huyó de Grecia y supuestamente comentó: "No permitiré que los atenienses pequen dos veces contra la filosofía".

Deutsch | 2024 | ISBN: 3864894549 | 202 Pages | EPUB | 2.2 MB
Deutschland hat versagt, schreibt Ulrich Schneider. Die Bundesrepublik stand mit Corona, Energiekrise und explodierenden Lebenshaltungskosten vor der größten Herausforderung ihrer Geschichte, es wurden unvorstellbare Summen in zahllosen Entlastungspaketen ausgegeben. Trotzdem gelang es nicht, die Gesellschaft in ihrer Krise zusammenzuhalten. Das Ergebnis ist ein sozial noch tiefer in Arm und Reich gespaltenes Land als zuvor. Der aus Talkshows bekannte Sozialexperte und Autor nimmt eine schonungslose Abrechnung mit einer Krisenpolitik von Großer Koalition und Ampel vor, die das Auseinanderdriften dieser Gesellschaft nicht nur hingenommen, sondern sogar noch gefördert hat.
