Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialty rooted in dentistry and forged in academic medical centers in departments of surgery, as the surgical specialty well equipped to care for conditions of the mouth, jaws, head and neck. Today oral and maxillofacial surgeons are advancing cancer care, neurosciences, understanding the pathology of the region, managing congenital and acquired deformities among others. In the process this specialty is improving the lives of our patients with better function, appearance, self esteem and longevity.

Die literarische Beschreibung zeigt sich als eines der zentralen Elemente spätantiker Dichtung. Sie dient dabei insofern in einer Doppelrolle, als sie in einem Wechselspiel sowohl der Repräsentation multisensorischer Wahrnehmungen als auch der Durchbrechung der durch sie erzeugten Illusion durch metapoetische Diskurse zuarbeitet. Diese Selbstreferentialität macht die spätantike Deskription zum Raum einer intensiven literarischen Kommunikation zwischen Dichter und Leserschaft in unterschiedlichen Gattungen und Kontexten. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht anhand ausgewählter Werke der zwischen dem späten 4. und dem frühen 5. Jh. wirkenden Dichter Claudian, Prudenz und Ausonius systematisch die textuellen Strategien der Beschreibung. Dabei werden die Texte unter Beachtung antiker Konzeptualisierungen der descriptio und unter Zuhilfenahme moderner literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Modelle analysiert. Die Texte zeigen dabei sowohl eine Weiterführung als auch eine Intensivierung bereits bestehender Traditionen, die sich in einer produktiven Nutzung von Intertexten, einer komplexen Medialität und einer mit Distanz und Nähe spielenden Textwelt äußern.

The Special Issue “Game Theory” of the journal Mathematics provides a collection of papers that represent modern trends in mathematical game theory and its applications. The works address the problem of constructing and implementation of solution concepts based on classical optimality principles in different classes of games. In the case of non-cooperative behavior of players, the Nash equilibrium as a basic optimality principle is considered in both static and dynamic game settings. In the case of cooperative behavior of players, the situation is more complicated. As is seen from presented papers, the direct use of cooperative optimality principles in dynamic and differential games may bring time or subgame inconsistency of a solution which makes the cooperative schemes unsustainable. The notion of time or subgame consistency is crucial to the success of cooperation in a dynamic framework. In the works devoted to dynamic or differential games, this problem is analyzed and the special regularization procedures proposed to achieve time or subgame consistency of cooperative solutions. Among others, special attention in the presented book is paid to the construction of characteristic functions which determine the power of coalitions in games. The book contains many multi-disciplinary works applied to economic and environmental applications in a coherent manner.
