Let $\scr H$ denote a Hilbert space consisting of functions analytic on a bounded, open, connected subset $\Omega$ of the complex plane. Given certain natural hypotheses on $\scr H$, the author characterizes the finite-codimensional subspaces of $\scr H$ that are invariant under multiplication by $z$, showing that all such subspaces have the form $(p\scr H)^-$, where $p$ is a polynomial whose zero
The empirical focus of this article is technological innovation activities in the emerging field of fuel cells and related hydrogen technology in Norway from 1990 to 2002. In this period, four comparatively large-scale research and development projects and a number of smaller projects aimed at development of fuel cells technology were undertaken, resulting in many inventions that were subsequently
In this work, lipid nanoparticles were used as pseudostationary phase, PSP, for protein separation in capillary electrochromatography, CEC. The aim of the work was to use a new analytical separation technique for future analysis of protein drugs by using lipid nanoparticles as a pseudo-stationary phase with conventional UV-detection. PSP-CEC was combined with UV-detection to study proteins elution

In order to analyze the current situation of environmental knowledge and education in a developing country such as Kenya, from the perspective of the locals, ten teachers from five secondary schools in Meru County were interviewed. The semi-structured interviews aim to provide an understanding of the implementation of environmental issues in schools and its influence of the awareness and the behav
Att stå som tilltalad i en brottmålsprocess är en utsatt situation. Har den tilltalade en psykisk störning kan vi tala om en särskilt utsatt situation. Frågan är vem som bär ansvar för att den tilltalade med psykisk störning får det stöd denne är i behov av, för att effektivt kunna delta i förfarandet och få en rättvis rättegång. Syftet med undersökningen har varit att utreda hur man i dagens brTo be the defendant in a court room is a situation of vulnerable exposition. When suffering from psychiatric disorders, the defendant is likely to be even more vulnerable. The question is who carries the responsibility to deliver adequate support in order to ensure the defendant receives a fair trial. The aim with this paper was to investigate the prosecution of defendants suffering from psychiat
Does my belief actually matter in the dialogue with a person of another religion or denomination? Two often occurring themes within Gavin D'Costa's and Paul Knitter's explorations within the realm of theology of religions are dialogue and the possibility to learn from someone with whom I do not share beliefs. The essay at hand studies how D'Costa and Knitter relate to different, Ch
In this thesis, it is investigated whether Per Albin Hansson and Jimmie Åkesson's concepts of “Folkhemmet” (Peoples Home) are comparable. This is done with a method that combines idea analysis and concept analysis. In concrete terms, this analysis is done in two ways. First with the help of specific analysis tools, which when applied to the selected material highlight interesting aspects. Then
This study maps the intersection of homelessness and migration in Europe by focusing on Italy and Sweden; in the study, ‘Europe’ is defined by the Schengen Common Area Agreement, by the Common European Asylum System and by the Dublin Regulation. Using Kimberlé Crenshaw’s Intersectionality as one of its main theoretical reference points, the study argues that different dimensions of power relations
Given a discrete dynamical system T, one can ask what the time average of the system will be, that is, what is the average position of T^n(x) for large n? Birkhoff’s ergodic theorem, one of the most important results in ergodic theory, says that for an ergodic system on a finite measure space, the time average will in the limit as n -> infinity be equal to the space average for almost all initial
Framtidens kliniska prövningar - Konceptualisering av ett decentraliserat digitalt system Tolv år och 1336 miljoner dollar, det är vad som krävs i genomsnitt för att framställa ett nytt läkemedel. För att kunna erbjuda alla människor så bra behandling som möjligt skulle det skulle därför vara fördelaktigt om processen kunde effektiviseras och ett viktigt steg i att få en ny behandling godkänd ärDeveloping and getting a new medicine approved is a long and expensive process and it would therefore be beneficial if it could be streamlined. In order to control the effect and safety of a new treatment, clinical trials are performed. Traditionally, these have been performed at physical clinics, but with digitalization the option to collect clinical data remotely has been presented. This thesi
We study geometric reconstruction problems in one-dimensional retina vision. In such problems, the scene is modeled as a two-dimensional plane, and the camera sensor produces one-dimensional images of the scene. Our main contribution is an efficient method for computing the global optimum to the structure and motion problem with respect to the L-infinity norm of the reprojection errors. One-dimens
The purpose with this case study was to see if the teaching element in the teachable agent Betty increases the understanding for the students. To do this I let one group of students learn by creating a dynamic model of the content and one group learn by teaching the computer agent Betty. To measure the knowledge of the students I had a pre- and posttest. The results from the tests showed that bot
In the doctrine, Articles 7(1)(b) to (d) CTMR, which preclude the registration of non-distinctive, descriptive and generic signs, are considered to form a part of a single, indivisible concept of distinctiveness, which is one of the most fundamental concepts in trade mark law. When assessing the distinctiveness of trade marks under these provisions, the CFI and the ECJ insist that all categories o
The aim of this article is to explore the social meaning and ordinary activities surrounding informal transactions in order to better understand the social context forming the premises and informing the meaning of corruption in Uzbekistan. A theoretically founded hypothesis is that informal transactions in Uzbek society reflect different cultural meanings than in the Western world. If this is true
Sets are often taken to be collections, or at least akin to them. In contrast, this paper argues that. although we cannot be sure what sets are (and the question, perhaps, does not even make sense), what we can be entirely sure of is that they are not collections of any kind. The central argument will be that being an element of a set and being a member in a collection are governed by quite differ
Many students who enter college are insufficiently prepared to follow a demanding college-level curriculum. Thus, higher education institutions often require low-performing students to repeat failed courses, a full term, or even a full year. This paper is the first to investigate the effects of such a “(grade) retention” policy on student performance in higher education. We study a setting where f
Policies and strategies to fight global environmental degradation, gender inequality, and poverty are often inadequate, ineffective, or insufficient. In response, this article seeks potential synergies and leverage points between three significant interrelated discourses that are often treated separately—development, gender, and environment. Proceeding from a brief history of development thinking
