Abstract

Singularity theory is a broad subject with vague boundaries. It draws on many other areas of mathematics, and in turn has contributed to many areas both within and outside mathematics, in particular differential and algebraic geometry, knot theory, differential equations, bifurcation theory, Hamiltonian mechanics, optics, robotics and computer vision. This volume consists of two dozen articles from some of the best known figures in singularity theory, and it presents an up-to-date survey of research in this area.

Abstract

The symposium ""Reaction Kinetics and the Development of Catalytic Processes"" is the continuation of the very successful International Symposium ""Dynamics of Surfaces and Reaction Kinetics in Heterogeneous Catalysis"", held in September 1997 in Antwerp, Belgium. These proceedings contain a unique series of top level plenary lectures mainly focused on the dynamics of catalytic surfaces the interaction of the reacting molecules with the solid catalyst the elementary steps of reaction pathways and molecular kinetics. Surface science techniques, molecular modeling, transient kineti

Abstract

This brief collection of refereed papers approaches several technical as well as methodological aspects of the mathematical formalization of natural language, particularly in syntax and in semantics. Such kind of investigation is a prerequisite for the computational processing of language and is narrowly related to current developments in other disciplines, namely theoretical computer science and mathematical logic. The volume offers a coherent picture of recent research on the mathematics of language, and may be of interest to a wide audience, from linguists to mathematicians. Detailed indexe

Abstract

Il est une vaste question d’histoire juridique, donc aussi d’histoire politique et sociale, insuffisamment examinée en France, longtemps sujette aux appréciations les plus diverses : avant l’ère des codifications et des constitutions écrites, quel ascendant et quelle influence concrète le droit romain, scientifiquement étudié et réemployé à partir des xie -xiie siècles, a-t-il exercés sur la genèse et l’affirmation de notre droit national ? Ce volume collectif, fort de vingt-et-une contributions, rend compte du regain d’intérêt, des orientations et des acquis les plus récents de la recherche sur cet inépuisable thème. Soucieux de mesurer l’impact du droit romain enseigné dans les écoles puis dans les universités - le jus civile - sur la production des nouvelles normes, publiques et privées, mais désireux aussi de poursuivre l’étude de ce phénomène d’acculturation juridique jusqu’au triomphe tardif du légicentrisme, les auteurs de ce volume souhaiteraient réhabiliter l’histoire du droit romain dans sa longue durée médiévale et moderne. Non qu’ils participent d’une nostalgie européaniste de la romanité mais parce que, dans le traitement national séculaire, doctrinal et pratique du magma normatif justinien, ils voient tout simplement naître et vivre l’ancien droit français. On ne dira jamais assez que la romanisation des droits occidentaux, hors terre d’Empire, s’est opérée libre de toute sujétion, qu’en France aussi les sources du droit romain n’ont jamais fait office que de gigantesque et permanent laboratoire.

Abstract

This volume is a collection of state-of-the-art papers in generative studies of second language (L2) acquisition bringing together an unusually broad range of interests and inquiry. Selected papers report on controlled experimental studies within specific areas of research investigating the development of L2 grammars; others formulate exciting new proposals for methodology and learnability in both first and second language acquisition. Following an introduction which argues for new research strategies that focus on the process of acquisition along with its product, the book is divided into two

Abstract

Metonymy in Language and Thought gives a state-of-the-art account of metonymic research. The contributions have different disciplinary and theoretical backgrounds in linguistics, psycholinguistics, psychology and literary studies. However, they share the assumption that metonymy is a cognitive phenomenon, a "figure of thought," underlying much of our ordinary conceptualization that may be even more fundamental than metaphor. The use of metonymy in language is a reflection of this conceptual status. The framework within which metonymy is understood in this volume is that of scenes, frame

Abstract

The 23rd UWM Linguistics Symposium (1996) brought together linguists of opposing theoretical approaches - functionalists and formalists - in order to determine to what extent these approaches really differ from each other and to what extent the approaches complement each other. The two volumes of Functionalism and Formalism in Linguistics contain a careful selection of the papers originally presented at the symposium. Volume I includes papers discussing the two basic approaches to linguistics; with contributions by: Werner Abraham, Stephen R. Anderson, Joan L. Bybee, William Croft, Alic

Abstract

The papers in this volume present a colourful picture of the range of research currently being undertaken in the field of the history of linguistics, with contribution both from established scholars and from younger researchers. The volume is organised on a geographical basis, with sections devoted to a number of different traditions in linguistics world-wide.The opening section is concerned with a number of general and methodological topics - ranging from the notion of 'revolution' in linguistic historiography to the history of the study of ape language. The second section is devoted to

Abstract

This book contains full papers of both oral and poster presentations of the international symposium 'Marine Bioprocess Engineering' which was held in Noordwijkerhout, The Netherlands, 1998. The symposium focused on the bioprocessing of marine natural products. Bioprocess engineering has been the key to success in the commercialization of biotechnology, especially with respect to biopharmaceuticals. In marine biotechnology, both new and existing biotechnological techniques are developed an applied to organisms from marine sources. For marine biotechnology, bioprocess engineering represents

Abstract

This volume brings together lectures from an instructional meeting on spectral theory and geometry held under the auspices of the International Centre for Mathematical Sciences in Edinburgh. The contributions here come from world experts and many are much expanded versions of the lectures they gave. Together they survey the core material and go beyond to reach deeper results. For graduate students and experts alike, this book will be a highly useful resource.
