We study properties of a specific continuous-time branching random tree in the plane, inspired by a model of neuronal growth. Using known results on the number of leaves of the tree, we derive a result on its growth, showing almost sure convergence. We then derive probabilities conditional on exactly one split having occurred by time t. We derive a recurrent integral equation for the probability t
Reliable Value-at-Risk forecasts are essential for quantifying the market risk a financial institution is exposed to. Utilizing a Bayesian approach treats the model's parameters as random variables, allowing for forecasts that consider parameter uncertainty as well as a measure of uncertainty through the spread of the forecasts, the epistemic uncertainty. The method of approximating the parame
The grammatical expression of definiteness varies considerably across the world’s languages. While the semantic concept of it is universal, its morphological realization differs significantly from language to language, making it particularly challenging for second language learners of Swedish. This thesis investigates the degree of difficulty of definite Swedish noun phrases for L2 learners, focus
This study investigates travel behaviour, transport choices, and attitudes towards public transport among individuals with residential parking permits in the municipality of Trelleborg, Sweden. The aim is to explore how everyday mobility patterns are formed, which factors influence the choice between car use and public transport, and how attitudes towards sustainable mobility relate to actual tran
Wetlands are an important component of, for example, biodiversity and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Sweden has several financial supports to promote restoration and creation of wetlands. In this study are applications regarding restoration or creation of wetlands within the Lokala naturvårdssatsningen (LONA) examined. This study is limited to applications submitted to the county board
This article examines narratives of care, i.e. artistic representations and explorations of caregiving relationships, with particular attention to their ethical dimensions. Focusing on two contemporary auto/biographical works depicting mother-daughter relationships — Marie Tillman's graphic novel En trasig historia( A Broken Story, 2020) and Sara Gordan's prose work Natten( The Night, 2022) — the
In this paper I will explore whether Christian eschatology can enrich existential psychotherapy. Notions as hope, death and Überwelt are at the centre of the inquiry. Finally, the concept of love will be examined.In this paper I will explore whether Christian eschatology can enrich existential psychotherapy.

In the philosophical literature, it is often assumed that disinformation leads to false beliefs. However, empirical work in the social sciences has established that much disinformation rather creates uncertainty. Taking seriously these empirical findings, I develop a non-doxastic theory of disinformation which I call the “live possibility model”. The core claim of my theory is that disinformation

This paper calls for an expansion of historical archaeology in both chronological and geographical scope. Moreover, it aims at a critical scrutiny of the use of prehistoric methods, perspectives, and theories in historical archaeology. The paper argues for a stronger alignment with humanities and cultural history through micro historic perspectives and theoretical perspectives of intersectionality
Olivia Peukert Stock visar genom exempel från den antika litteraturen att romarna tog eder på största allvar. Såväl i vardagen som i offentligheten – både i politiska och juridiska sammanhang – svor de ofta vid exempelvis en gud att ett påstående var sant. Många berättelser vittnar även om att det var förknippat med hårda straff att bryta mot en sådan ed.
BackgroundAdrenomedullin (ADM) is a vasoactive neurohormonal peptide involved in vascular integrity and fluid homeostasis. Even if elevated ADM is an established marker of acute vascular stress, it remains unclear how the ADM system should be measured and interpreted in the general population. In particular, it is uncertain which components of the pathway are most informative, when they should be
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystem genetic disease characterized by chronic airway infection and progressive lung function decline. With increasing life expectancy, extrapulmonary comorbidities such as cystic fibrosis–related diabetes (CFRD) and hepatobiliary involvement have become important contributors to disease burden in people with CF (pwCF). Aim: The overall aim of this thesi
