Generalizando para o caso do bidisco hiperbólico as construções em (ANANIN; GROSSI; GUSEVISKII, 2011) e em (GROSSI, 2015), provamos que o fibrado trivial (tangente) sobre superfícies de gênero ≥ 1 (≥ 2) admite geometria modelada no bidisco hiperbólico. (O caso do fibrado trivial sobre o toro é particularmente curioso, pois a curvatura é nula na base e em cada fibra, mas não no fibrado.) Além do seu próprio valor intrínseco, estes exemplos se inserem no contexto da conjectura de Gromov, Lawson e Thurston. Originalmente, a conjectura de Gromov, Lawson e Thurston diz que um fibrado de discos sobre uma superfície conexa fechada orientável de gênero ≥ 2 admite métrica hiperbólica completa de curvatura constante se e só se ΙeΙ ≤ Ι XΙ, onde e é o número de Euler do fibrado e X é a caraterística de Euler da base. Posteriomente, observou-se que esta desigualdade também era válida em todos os fibrados de discos sobre superfícies com estrutura hiperbólica complexa (i.e., uniformizados pela 2-bola holomorfa) conhecidos. Por esta razão, passou-se a acreditar que a conjectura depende apenas de curvatura negativa lato sensu (digamos, à la Alexandrov) e não das especificidades de uma geometria hiperbólica particular. O bidisco hiperbólico é o caso mais simples que nos permite testar tal hipótese, pois está no limite de ser hiperbólico (a curvatura é ≤ 0). Construímos os dois casos extremais: = 0 (fibrado trivial) e ΙeΙ = ΙXΙ (fibrado tangente). Além disso, provamos alguns resultados relacionados à teoria de Teichmüller no contexto de fibrados de discos uniformizados pelo bidisco hiperbólico.Generalizing the constructions in (ANANIN; GROSSI; GUSEVISKII, 2011) and in (GROSSI, 2015) to the hyperbolic bidisc, we show that the trivial (tangent) bundle over genus ≥ 1 (≥ 2) surfaces admits a geometric structure modelled on the hyperbolic bidisc. (The case of the trivial bundle over the torus is particularly interesting because the curvature vanishes on the base and on every fiber, but is non-null on the bundle.) Aside from their intrinsic value, these examples also play a role in the context of the Gromov, Lawson and Thurston conjecture (GLT conjecture). Originally, the GLT conjecture states that a disc bundle over a connected oriented closed surface of genus ≥ 2 admits a complete hyperbolic metric of constant curvature if and only if ΙeΙ ≤ ΙXΙ, where stands for the Euler number of the bundle and , for the Euler characteristic of the base. Afterwards, it was observed that this inequality also holds for every known example of disc bundles over surfaces equipped with complex hyperbolic structure (i.e., uniformized by the holomoprhic 2-ball). So, one started to believe that the conjecture depends only on negative curvature lato sensu (say, à la Alexandrov) and not on the particularities of an specific hyperbolic geometry. The hyperbolic bidisc is the simplest case allowing us to test such hypothesis since it lies on the frontier of being hyperbolic (curvature is ≥ 0). We construct the two extremal cases: e = 0 (trivial bundle) and ΙeΙ = ΙXΙ (tangent bundle). We also prove a few results related to Teichmüllers theory in the context of disc bundles uniformized by the hyperbolic bidisc.

Le, Marion. "Influence des liserés de carbures induits par la nitruration gazeuse sur les mécanismes de fissuration de fatigue de contacts roulants". Thesis, Lyon, INSA, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015ISAL0102/document.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
La nitruration gazeuse est utilisée par les fabricants d’engrenages pour traiter la surface des dentures. En effet, l’augmentation de la dureté et l’introduction de contraintes résiduelles de compression contribuent à retarder voire inhiber l’initiation et la propagation des fissures superficielles de fatigue de contact. Cependant la majorité des aciers alliés présentent des réseaux de précipités de carbures dans la couche nitrurée. Ceux-ci ont la particularité de se retrouver aux joints de grains relativement parallèles à la surface, ce qui leurs ont attribué les surnoms de «liserés de carbures». Associés à une phase dure et fragile, ces carbures constituent des zones d’hétérogénéités. Par ailleurs, la norme pour la qualité des matériaux d’engrenages autorise une large gamme de tailles de grains, conduisant à diverses microstructures pour les couches nitrurées des aciers alliés. En effet, la morphologie des réseaux de carbures après nitruration dépend entre autres de la taille de grain de l’acier. De par le manque de travaux sur l’impact réel de ces précipités sur la fatigue de contact, la présente étude propose des analyses d’essais. Les essais consistent à reproduire de l’écaillage initié en surface sur des éprouvettes dont les couches nitrurées, issues d’un seul traitement thermochimique, présentent les mêmes propriétés mécaniques (dureté et contraintes résiduelles) mais différentes propriétés microstructurales (tailles de grains et morphologies de carbures). Les analyses ont permis de proposer des mécanismes d’initiation de micro-fissures induites en proche surface sous les conditions d’essai appliquées. Les sites d’initiation dépendent de la taille de grain de l’acier et peuvent en particulier s’établir au niveau des carbures intergranulaires. L’étude des réseaux de fissures couplée à l’analyse des contraintes résiduelles a permis d’établir des scénarii de propagation des fissures dans les couches nitrurées. Sous les conditions de contact appliquées, l’apparition de déformation plastique entraîne, par accommodation des variations de volume, la relaxation des contraintes résiduelles compressives initialement présentes dans le matériau, aux profondeurs les moins sollicitées. Ces contraintes étant moins compressives, elles libèrent les micro-fissures déjà présentes en proche surface. Dès lors, la propagation au travers des carbures qui s’apparentent à des sites privilégiés pour la croissance des fissures en cours de fatigue est possible. En particulier, ces précipités entraînent les fissures vers le cœur lorsqu’ils sont en forte densité dans les couches nitrurées, tandis que l’endommagement reste superficiel lorsque l’éloignement entre les précipités est trop important. Enfin, la continuité et la longueur des carbures augmentent localement la vitesse de propagation des fissures. Ceci se traduit par l’apparition plus rapide de l’écaillage initié en surface pour les couches nitrurées de microstructures grossièresGas nitriding is a thermochemical surface treatment widely used by gear manufacturers to improve the rolling contact fatigue endurance of their components. Indeed, increasing the hardness and introducing compressive residual stresses to the geartooth surfaces inhibit or delay crack initiation and propagation. However, most of the alloyed steel nitrided layers show the presence of intergranular carbide networks. The precipitation of these carbides specifically occurs at parallel grain boundaries during the treatment and, being a carbon-rich phase, they are associated to tough and fragile heterogeneities. Besides, standards for gear material quality recommend a broad range of steel grain sizes which lead to various possible microstructures on gear components after nitriding. Indeed, the intergranular carbide network morphology depends on the steel grain size. Since there is no evidence regarding the real effect of the carbides on rolling contact fatigue, this work presents experimental investigations carried out on a twin-disc machine. The tests consist in reproducing surface-initiated pitting on specimens whose nitrided layers, obtained by a unique thermochemical surface treatment, display similar mechanical properties (hardness and compressive residual stresses) but different microstructures (grain sizes and carbide network morphologies). The first analysis resulted in suggesting the micro-crack nucleation mechanisms. In this study, the test conditions were chosen to induce these micro-cracks near the disc surfaces. For a given contact stress field, nucleation sites depend on the steel grain size and can take place at intergranular carbides. Investigations of crack networks led on cross sections and 3D observations by means of high energy X-ray computed tomography, coupled with compressive residual stress evolution analysis, help the authors proposing the rolling contact fatigue crack propagation scenarios in nitrided layers. When contact shear stresses locally exceed the material micro-yield shear stress limit, micro-deformations arise and add compressive residual stresses to the treated layers. To accommodate these volume variations the compressive residual stresses, initially induced by nitriding, release at depths where contact stresses are lower. The pre-existing residual stresses being less compressive, micro-cracks near the surface can propagate through the carbides that act as preferential crack growth sites. When the nitrided layers display high carbide density, the intergranular precipitates drag the cracks toward the core, whereas rolling contact fatigue failures are limited to the near surface when the distance between the precipitates is too important. Finally, the length and the continuity of the carbides, linked to the steel grain size, locally increase the crack propagation speed. This gives rise to a lower endurance to surface-initiated pitting in coarse microstructures

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Idris Bidlisi's Heşt Behişt is a history of the Ottoman empire written in Persian at the beginning of the sixteenth century. Although considered one of the most important historical works of its time, the work remains to date unedited and scarcely studied. The present work aims to make at least a part of Heşt Behişt available to modern scholarship, with particular focus on the times of the author's patron, the Ottoman sultan Bayezid II (1481-1512). The summarised translation (chapter Vll) of the eighth 'Book' of Heşt Behişt, devoted to Bayezid II's reign, provides the basis for further discussions on several issues relating to the period, including an investigation of the author's personal approach to his subject. The thesis begins with an outline of the historical background of the reign of Bayezid II (chapter I), followed by a brief account of the development of Ottoman historiography up to the appearance of Heşt Behişt (chapter II). The author, Idris Bidlisi, and Heşt Behişt itself are then introduced (chapters Ill and IV). The focus is subsequently turned to the reign of Bayezid II, with particular attention to two major issues of the period. The first relates to the civil strife between the new sultan and his brother Cem over succession to the throne, a series of events which marked the first two years of Bayezid II's reign and had a significant effect on the Ottoman empire's domestic and international politics for the next thirteen years until Cem's death in 1495 (chapter V). The second analytical chapter investigates the phenomenon of the Ottoman navy in the times of Bayezid II, under whose care the empire's naval forces were significantly expanded and upgraded, for the first time in Ottoman history achieving predominance in sea over their Christian counterparts (chapter VI). In the study of both these themes information and the results of modern scholarship are juxtaposed to the material found in Heşt Behişt, in an attempt to look into the historical knowledge of the period and disclose the chronicle's usefulness and contribution to modem research.

The study presented here focus in reflections and analyses involving the tragedies Electra, by Sophocles; The Libation Bearers, by Aeschylus and Electra, by Euripides, and, based on intertextuality studies this study sought to identify how is Electra s myth is present in the narrative Seahorses, written by the English author of Indian ancestry Bidisha Bandyopadhyayl, published in 1997 in London and translated in Brazil in 1998. The novel Seahorses, still unstudied in Brazil, had a huge impact in the literary milieu, been particularly well received with European press, the author by that time being very young, 17 years old, considered as a prodigy. The myth of Electra contributes on this study due to its importance in recent times, being a study reference for Humanities, besides Literature. This study comprehends a bibliographical research pertaining to the Comparative Literature field, based on the reading of many scholars from diverse areas: literature, anthropology, and even psychiatry. In the perspective of obtaining the aim of the study, we sustained the research in the theoretical assumption recurrent in the study of mythology, studies on the imaginary and intertextuality and for that purposed we relayed on some authors, such as Gilbert Durand, Gaston Bachelard e Jean-Jacques Wunenburger, who shall provide support to the issue of the imaginary. The intertextual discussion among the texts shall be orientated by the study Tiphaine Samoyault and Laurent Jenny. Among other scholars, from mythology studies, literary criticism and even from anthropology and psychiatry, yet it is possible to highlight the scholar Linda Hutcheon in order to contextualize the post-modern novel, Carlinda Pate Nuñez who thoroughly analyzed the three Greek tragedies, as well as Mircea Eliade and E. M. Milietinski. As a result of this investigation process, we understand that the textual upturns, recurring to the literary memory, the text circulates in movements, between what is already given and the new, to the renewed interlacing of the words with other senses and meanings where literature constitutes itself. Henceforth, the myth of Electra is reconsidered, questioned, reviewed, and bringing in itself several other subtleties, issues directly or indirectly related to the myth, in as much the discussion on womanhood and incest.
A pesquisa aqui delineada focalizou-se em reflexões e em análise envolvendo as obras Electra, de Sófocles; Coéforas, de Ésquilo; e Electra, de Eurípedes. Com base em estudos sobre intertextualidade, objetivou-se identificar como o mito de Electra encontra-se presente na narrativa O Sonho de Electra escrito pela autora inglesa, filha de indianos Bidisha Bandyopadhyay, publicada em 1997 em Londres e traduzida no Brasil em 1998. Na perspectiva de alcançar o objetivo proposto, sustentamos a pesquisa nos pressupostos teóricos recorrentes ao estudo da mitologia, do imaginário e da intertextualidade. E, para isso, buscamos alguns autores como Gilbert Durand (1983; 1993;1996; 2002), Gaston Bachelard (1993; 2001) e Jean-Jacques Wunenburger (2007) que darão suporte à questão do imaginário. A discussão intertextual entre os textos será norteada pelos estudos realizados por Tiphaine Samoyault (2008) e Laurent Jenny (1979). Entre vários outros estudiosos, seja da mitologia ou crítica literária e até mesmo da antropologia e da psiquiatria, ainda é possível destacar Linda Hutcheon (1991) para contextualizar o romance pós-moderno, Carlinda Pate Nuñez (2000) que analisara minuciosamente as três obras da tragédia grega, além de Mircea Eliade (1984; 1993; 2002) e E. M. Milietinski (1987). Como resultado desse processo de investigação entendemos que entre as retomadas intertextuais, ao recorrer-se a memória literária, o texto circula em movimento, entre o que está dado ao novo, ao novo entrelaçamento das palavras, com outros sentidos e significados, a literatura vai constituindo-se. E, assim, o mito de Electra vai sendo repensado, revisto, questionado, trazendo consigo várias outras nuances, questões diretamente ou indiretamente relacionadas ao mito, como a discussão da condição feminina e do incesto. Sobretudo, no romance existe algo que vai além da intertextualidade, algo mais complexo, pois, ocorre uma subversão da dinâmica clássica do mito, uma contestação deste, assim, como há também críticas às produções artísticas atuais, tanto no cinema, quanto na música, além da própria literatura.

Takeovers play an important role in the economy as they serve to reallocate economic resources to more efficient uses and replace inefficient management. Unregulated takeover bids pose a threat to the interests of the target company shareholders. The legislature pays special attention to takeover bids to make sure that the bona fide interests of the target company shareholders are duly protected. This is the primary purpose of the takeover bid regulation in Ontario. The regulation is also aimed at ensuring the horizontal equity among target shareholders and the efficient functioning of the capital market. This thesis analyzes the present regulation of takeover bids in Ontario and argues that while the whole system of takeover bid regulation is consistent with the proclaimed purposes, there are two issues that fall out of the coherent structure. The restriction on free transferability of shares and the adoption by boards of directors of shareholder rights plans do not enhance the protection of target company shareholders and do not correspond to the proclaimed purposes.

En av de viktigaste delarna i bostadsaffärer är budgivningen, både för mäklare, säljare och köpare. Budgivningen är dock inte reglerad i lag och bud är inte bindande. Säljaren bestämmer över budgivningen och spekulanterna bestämmer över sina bud. Mäklarens hantering av budgivningen är reglerad genom lag och praxis, bland annat skyldigheten att tillvarata båda parters intressen. Med dessa utgångspunkter kan budgivningen i vissa fall bli problematisk, något som har uppmärksammats i samband med dolda bud. Ett dolt bud innebär att det endast gäller under förutsättning att det inte kommuniceras till övriga spekulanter. Det har blivit allt vanligare på bostadsmarknaden men det saknas information och fördjupning inom ämnet. Därav är syftet med denna uppsats att studera dolda bud och vilka effekter det har på förmedlingsprocessen utifrån en kvalitativ forskningsmetod med induktiv ansats. Studien utgörs i huvudsak av intervjuer med olika erfarna personer inom bostadsmarknaden i Stockholm, men utreder även vad dolda bud innebär och hur det förhåller sig till regler, lagar och praxis. Det finns en stor problematik kring dolda bud och det innebär en risk för alla inblandade parter. Budgivningen brister i transparens och det är inte ovanligt att det leder till besvikelse och frustration. Det förekommer i samband med att marknaden är het och leder till en snabb affär där alla inte får chans att delta i budgivningen som många har att förlora på. Marknaden sätter inte priset vilket leder till slutpriser som mer eller mindre skiljer sig från marknadsvärdet. Ekonomiskt sett är det i princip alltid någon av parterna som förlorar på affären, antingen betalar köparen för mycket eller så får säljaren mindre än vad man hade kunnat få i en öppen budgivning. Framför allt är det övriga spekulanter som blir upprörda för att de inte har fått möjlighet att delta i budgivningen och det är oftast mäklaren som får kritiken. Okunskap och orättvisa är orsaken till missnöjet och problematiken som uppstår på bostadsmarknaden. Mäklare samt branschexperter ser detta som ett allt vanligare problem och det leder till ett dåligt rykte för bostadsmarknaden, särskilt för mäklarna. Branschens ambition är att bostadsaffärer ska vara tydliga och informativa för alla parter med en öppen och transparent budgivning.One of the most vital parts in real estate business is the bidding process, for both the broker, seller and the buyer. Although, the bidding process is not regulated by the law and the bids are not binding. The seller is deciding over the bidding process and the potential buyers are in charge of their offerings. How the realtor is handling the bidding process is regulated by law and by praxis, for example the obligation to include the interest of both parties (seller and potential buyer). Based on these premises, the bidding process can in some cases become problematic, which have been highlighted in association of sealed bids. A sealed bid involves a condition that it will last only if it is not communicated to other speculators. This phenomenon become more common on the real estate market, although it lacks information and knowledge within this topic. Therefore, the purpose of this bachelor thesis is to study sealed bids and identify what effects it has on the brokerage process, based on a qualitative study method with an inductive approach. The study is mainly based on interviews with different people with different experiences within the sector of real estate in Stockholm. In addition, it also investigates what sealed bids means and how it is related to rules, laws and praxis. There is a huge issue with sealed bids and it involves a risk for all parties involved. The bidding process is lacking in transparency and it is likely that it generates disappointment and frustration. It occurs in association when the market is blooming, which generates quick deals where not everyone get the chance to participate in the process of bidding. The market does not set the price, which leads to selling prices that differs from the market value. From a financial point of view, one of the parties usually losing out in the deal, with either the buyer paying too much, or the seller receiving less than what they could have received in an open bidding process. Overall, the other speculators get upset due to that they have not been getting the opportunity to participate in the bidding and it is often the realtor who receives the criticism. Lack of knowledge and injustice are the reasons of the dissatisfaction and the problem that arises on the real estate market. Brokers and other experts within the sector see this as a more common issue and it gives the real estate market a bad reputation, especially for the brokers. The ambition of the sector is that the real estate deals should be more direct and informative for all parties involved with an open and transparent bidding process.

Brennan, Niamh. "Disclosure of profit forecasts during takeover bids". Thesis, University of Warwick, 1995. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/2353/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis examines disclosure of 250 profit forecasts in 701 UK takeover bids in the period 1988 to 1992 against five research issues: - Factors influencing disclosure of forecasts - Influence of prevailing market expectations - Effect of disclosure of forecasts on the outcome of bids - Factors influencing disclosure content in forecasts - Whether forecasts disclosed convey good news Logit analysis and negative binomial regression are the two primary statistical techniques used to analyse the results. Results show the domination of the takeover-context of the research. Two variables accounted for almost all the influence on disclosure of forecasts for both bidders and targets: bid horizon and type of bid. Probability of disclosure of a forecast is greater the shorter the bid horizon and during contested bids. In addition to bid horizon and type of bid, for bidders, year, value of bid and purchase consideration were significant, and for targets value of bid and industry were significant in one of the two models estimated. Evidence supporting the hypothesis that forecast disclosure is more likely when market expectations are out of line with actual results is provided. There is some evidence that forecasts by targets affect the outcome of bids, but there is no such evidence for bidders. Takeover-context variables and forecast-related variables were most relevant in determining disclosures in forecasts. Disclosure content in forecasts was significantly greater during contested bids, in voluntary forecasts and in longer period forecasts. Significantly more assumptions were disclosed by target forecasters and in longer horizon forecasts. Evidence shows a tendency to disclose good news, with some disclosure of bad news. Good news forecasts are more likely during contested bids. Targets are more likely to disclose bad news forecasts, but when bidders disclose bad news it tends to be worse on average than targets' bad news.

La comunità bangladese è ormai da anni la più numerosa nel territorio veneziano. Questo lavoro parte da un’analisi di questa comunità e, nello specifico, delle donne che vi appartengono. La maggior parte delle donne in questione è arrivata in Italia tramite ricongiungimento familiare e vive una vita abbastanza distante da quella degli italiani e molto differente rispetto a quella dei connazionali uomini sia per quanto riguarda la condizione sociale e lavorativa, che rispetto al lavoro domestico e familiare. L’intento di questo lavoro è quello di capire, tramite una ricerca qualitativa, se il processo di integrazione che vede coinvolte queste donne presenta degli elementi comuni che ne determinano ostacoli e difficoltà. Il fine ultimo del lavoro è quello di far chiarezza, partendo da un piccolo gruppo campione, su quali sono gli ambiti di vita e i servizi offerti che potrebbero essere migliorati o implementati, a favore di queste ed altre donne.

In this thesis, I describe a new type of interactive display that supports both on-screen multi-touch interactions and off-screen hover-based gestures. This BiDirectional (BiDi) screen, capable of both image capture and display, is inspired by emerging LCDs that use embedded optical sensors to detect multiple points of direct contact. The key contribution of this thesis is to exploit the spatial light modulation capability of LCDs to allow dynamic mask-based scene capture without interfering with display functionality. A large-format image sensor is placed slightly behind the liquid crystal layer. By alternatly switching the liquid crystal between a display mode showing traditional graphics and a capture mode in which the backlight is disabled and a pinhole array or an equivalent tiled-broadband code is displayed, the BiDi Screen can recover multi-view orthographic imagery while functioning as a 2D display. The recovered imagery is used to passively estimate the depth of scene points from focus. I discuss the design and construction of a prototype to demonstrate these capabilities in two motivating applications: a hybrid touch plus gesture interaction and a light-gun mode for interacting with external light-emitting widgets. The working prototype simulates the large format light sensor with a camera and diffuser, supporting interaction up to 50 cm in front of a modified 20.1 inch LCD.

This dissertation is a collection of essays on bids and offer matching in a labor market for new entrants to white-collar jobs. The papers compare some of the different institutions for determining wages and conducting the hiring process in the market for new entrants to white collar jobs.
The first essay analyzes how does a firm announce and commit to a wage prior to deriving specific information about applicants' productivity and the consequences of following this hiring process. In the model there are two firms and at least as many applicants as the number of firms. All applicants apply simultaneously to both firms in response to the job advertisement which also mentions a wage. Each firm derives the firm-specific productivity of the applicants from their applications which is private information to each firm. None of the applicants have any information about the firms' evaluation. There are four pure strategy Nash Equilibria in wage announcements. Both firms announce a high wage, both firms announce a low wage, both firms announce a high or a low wage, and one firm announces a high wage and the other firm announces a low wage. In the latter case there also exists a unique mixed strategy equilibrium reflecting a firm's uncertainty about the choice of the other firm. In equilibrium one or both firms may not hire and the equilibrium may not exhibit wage dispersion.
The second essay analyzes the question; which is better, to announce and commit to a particular wage prior to deriving specific information about applicants' productivity or to offer wages privately after deriving the firm-specific productivity. The equilibrium policy, to be followed by the firms in the first place, is determined endogenously by comparing the ex ante expected profits associated with the equilibria under the different policies. Lack of prior information and the uncertainty about the possible match results in "offer wages privately" as always an equilibrium policy. However, if a low wage is the equilibrium strategy under all the policies, then "any pair of policies" is an equilibrium. This justifies one of the circumstances in which different policies might coexist. In equilibrium a firm's position is always filled and the equilibrium outcome may not exhibit wage dispersion.
The third essay analyses the question, if "announcing a wage" is the strategy rule to be followed by the firms, then what should be the equilibrium timing of wage announcement, before or after receiving specific information about applicants' productivity. Two policies are compared. Under the first policy a firm announces and commits to a particular wage prior to deriving the match-specific productivity. Under the second policy a firm solicits applications, derives the firm-specific productivity, and then announces and commits to a wage. The equilibrium timing of wage, to be followed by the firms in the first place, is determined endogenously by comparing the ex ante expected profits associated with the equilibrium strategy under the different timings. It turns out that announcing and committing to a particular wage after deriving specific information is always an equilibrium timing because of the informational advantage. However, if a low wage is the equilibrium strategy under all the policies then any pair of policies is an equilibrium. In equilibrium one of the firm's position may remain unfilled. The equilibrium outcome may not exhibit wage dispersion.Ph. D.

In this paper we show that public opinion variables have predictable effects on the outcomes of the third term bids that have occurred in the post-transition period in Africa. We focus on three public opinion variables that we believe to be critical in explaining variation across these outcomes: popular opposition to authoritarian rule, presidential popularity, and popular trust in the president.

Section 217 of the Constitution1 states that, when organ of state within the national, provincial and local sphere contracts for goods or services, must do so in accordance with a system which is fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost effective. A number of legislations were enacted to deal with supply chain management processes within the public sector which legislations and regulations are often contradictory and confusing with no clear legal status. Organs of state are required to issue out an invitation to tender which is not open for acceptance by the highest bidder, but an invitation to potential bidders to make an offer that will be considered after the closing date for the particular tender. For the offer and acceptance to be valid and enforceable must comply with certain requirements. Once the offer is accepted, a contract which reflects the consensus reached between the parties, is formed. Once entered into, contracts are there not to be breached but entered into with the intention of having some benefit. However when parties breach the contract or when same is terminated and loss is suffered, parties may take a better look at the terms and conditions of their agreement. It is at that time that the parties may say their intention prior to signing the agreement is not correctly represented in the agreement and as such parties wish to state that the contract does not truly reflect their intention.2 It is at this point that process of interpretation becomes critical. It is the duty of the drafter to ensure that such invitation to do business is carefully drafted and has fully captured all the elements of the envisaged contract and excluded all elements of ambiguity which might create problems during the interpretation stage. In this document I intend to indicate the legislative framework governing supply chain management processes within the public sector and challenges encountered in the implementation of such legislations, the impact created by the lack of knowledge and skills by the persons entrusted with the duty to implement the legislations and non-compliance with policies and regulations relating to process. It is argued in this document that our law should be developed to fully recognize a bidding process as another form of contract creating rights and obligations and be interpreted in the same was as any other contract to eliminate most of the challenges in dealing with a bidding process. The further challenges created by the implementation of the myriad of legislations and policies regulating the public sector supply chain process be minimized by the enactment of a comprehensive integrated ‘one stop’ public procurement code.Mini Dissertation (LLM)--University of Pretoria, 2017.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
An increasing number of researchers have begun to identify relationships between dimensions of infants’ and toddlers’ temperament and their language development. Proclivities to engage in joint attention have also been implicated in children’s language development. The purpose of the present investigation was to explore whether aspects of children’s temperament typically associated with linguistic performance could be observed to moderate the joint attentional responsiveness of 11- and 14-month-olds in a controlled laboratory setting. Forty-seven infants (22 females, 25 males) were drawn from a larger study investigating infants’ gaze-following abilities, and included 25 11-month-olds and 22 14-month-olds. In a laboratory setting, two identical objects were placed on opposite sides of the room to the right and left of the infant, respectively. Colorful shower curtains served as background contexts for the objects, and differed in pattern. Experimenters looked at either the right or left object, and infants were scored as to whether they followed the gaze of the experimenter during 1) an initial training phase of 8 trials, and 2) a subsequent testing phase of 8 more trials. Background contexts were switched for half the children during test trials. Temperament played a considerable role in moderating children’s gaze-following at both ages, contributing to 15 significant interactions with factors affecting gaze-following. At 11 months, gaze-following was primarily associated with temperament dimensions reflecting surgency and executive control. For example, perceptual sensitivity, a subcomponent of surgency, entered into a significant 3-way interaction [F(1, 21) = 8.00, p = .010] with training phase (initial versus test) and contextual condition (familiar versus novel). Evaluation of the means vis-à-vis post hoc comparisons indicated that children high in perceptual sensitivity decreased their gaze-following over time in both contexts, whereas children low in perceptual sensitivity exhibited a decrease in gaze-following in only the familiar context. At 14 months, in contrast, negative affectivity was primarily involved. Here, low negative affect children exhibited less gaze-following than high negative affect children during the novel test condition, but the reverse obtained in the familiar test condition [F(1, 18) = 4.56, p = .041]. Our results provide additional evidence of the utility of taking children’s temperament into account when exploring their language development. These findings fit within a model of language development in which children’s temperament influences their language development, at least in part, by virtue of its impact on children’s responsiveness to joint attentional bids.

Previous issue date: 2014-06-24The present work has as its main object the binding precedents, especially those that deal with tax matters, and its correlation with the interpretation of the legal rule. It enters in some categories of the General Theory of Law, which are necessary to disentangle the issue. It examines the genesis of the Institute of binding precedent and its legal grounds Constitutional Amendment 45 of 2004 and Law 11.417, as well as it deals with the procedures to be followed in edition, revision and repeal of binding precedents. It also examines the binding precedent as a kind of legal rule and, based on this assumption, studies its application, always emphasizing the process of exegesis. In order to bring a broader scenario, it compares the legal rule of binding precedent with others existing in the legal system, and, one by one, introduces the binding precedents related to the tax issue. Finally, it deals with the complaint institute, appropriate remedy in the case of non- compliance with the content of the binding precedent by the authority, both at the administrative level, and in the judicial sphere, and comments about the sanctions resulting from non-application of the biding precedents
O presente trabalho tem como objeto principal as súmulas vinculantes, em especial as que versam sobre matéria tributária, e sua correlação com a interpretação da norma jurídica. Adentra em algumas categorias da Teoria Geral do Direito, necessárias ao deslinde do tema. Examina a gênese do instituto da súmula vinculante e seus fundamentos legais Emenda Constitucional 45 de 2004 e Lei 11.417, bem como trata dos procedimentos a serem observados na edição, revisão e revogação das súmulas vinculantes. Analisa, ainda, a súmula vinculante como espécie de norma jurídica e, partindo desse pressuposto, estuda sua aplicação, sempre enfatizando o procedimento de exegese. Para trazer um cenário mais amplo, compara a norma jurídica da súmula vinculante com outras existentes no sistema jurídico, além de colacionar uma a uma as súmulas vinculantes relacionadas ao tema tributário. Finalmente, trata da reclamação, remédio cabível no caso da não observância do teor da súmula vinculante pela autoridade, quer em âmbito administrativo, quer em âmbito judicial e tece comentários a respeito das sanções decorrentes da não aplicação da súmula vinculante

A travers l’étude comparée des œuvres de philosophes africains francophones et anglophones, il s’agit d’interroger l’occasion et les conditions de possibilité d’un discours philosophique original dans des circonstances aussi (sur)-déterminées que celles engendrées par la colonisation et celles de la situation post-coloniale africaine. Cette lecture des philosophies africaines contemporaines s’attache à dégager et à analyser les réceptions des philosophies occidentales – qu’il s’agisse de philosophie politique, analytique, d’herméneutique, d’esthétique, de logique, d’éthique ou encore de philosophie du droit –, mais aussi les ré-interprétations de ce qui est plus communément appelé « traditions africaines », afin de percevoir comment se construit une réflexion philosophique dans des contextes particuliers de production du discours. A la croisée d’horizons multiples, les pensées de ces philosophes, en ce qu’elles déplacent certaines philosophies occidentales sur un plan autre que celui de leur production, nous amènent à re-penser le lieu de la philosophie, sa géographie, mais aussi son processus de constitution. Rencontres de rationalités, ces philosophies oscillent entre une démarche identitaire close correspondant à la pensée identifiante de l’Un, et une attitude propice à la création, à la traversée, au mouvement. Il s’agit alors de comprendre en quel sens et dans quelle mesure, ces philosophies s’insèrent dans des traditions philosophiques africaines et occidentales qu’elles investissent et renouvellent dans un dialogue qu’elles tentent de mener avec certains textes philosophiques européens et/ou américainsThis comparative study of the works of French and English speaking African philosophers wonders about the occasion and conditions of the possibility of an original philosophical thinking in the (over) determined circumstances generated by colonization and post-colonial situation. This reading of contemporary African philosophies tries to bring out and to analyze the receptions of Western philosophies – these one may be political or analytical philosophy, hermeneutics, aesthetics, logic, ethics or even law philosophy – but also the re-interpretations of what is commonly called “African traditions”, in order to understand how a philosophical thinking is constructed within some particular contexts of production of a speech. These philosophers’ thoughts induce us to re-think the place of philosophy, its geography, but also its constitutional process because they are crossing multiple horizons and different rationalities. These philosophies oscillate between an approach corresponding to the identifying thought of the One, and an attitude favorable to openness and creation. Our concerns is to understand how these philosophies are linked with African and Western philosophical traditions that they invest and renew in a dialogue they try to engage with European and/or American philosophical writings

Li, Zhen. "Optimal design of Dutch auctions with discrete bid levels". Thesis, University of North Texas, 2010. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc28450/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
The theory of auction has become an active research area spanning multiple disciplines such as economics, finance, marketing and management science. But a close examination of it reveals that most of the existing studies deal with ascending (i.e., English) auctions in which it is assumed that the bid increments are continuous. There is a clear lack of research on optimal descending (i.e., Dutch) auction design with discrete bid levels. This dissertation aims to fill this void by considering single-unit, open-bid, first price Dutch auctions in which the bid levels are restricted to a finite set of values, the number of bidders may be certain or uncertain, and a secret reserve price may be present or absent. These types of auctions are most attractive for selling products that are perishable (e.g., flowers) or whose value decreases with time (e.g., air flight seats and concert tickets) (Carare and Rothkopf, 2005). I began by conducting a comprehensive survey of the current literature to identify the key dimensions of an auction model. I then zeroed in on the particular combination of parameters that characterize the Dutch auctions of interest. As a significant departure from the traditional methods employed by applied economists and game theorists, a novel approach is taken by formulating the auctioning problem as a constrained mathematical program and applying standard nonlinear optimization techniques to solve it. In each of the basic Dutch auction model and its two extensions, interesting properties possessed by the optimal bid levels and the auctioneer's maximum expected revenue are uncovered. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the major propositions where appropriate. The superiority of the optimal strategy recommended in this study over two commonly-used heuristic procedures for setting bid levels is also demonstrated both theoretically and empirically. Finally, economic as well as managerial implications of the findings reported in this dissertation research are discussed.

The law does not regulate the bidding process; it’s the seller who, in consultation with the estate agent, decides the rules. If the estate agent does not inform all the bidders about conditions attached to the bids,it means that a bidder bid against something he s not fully informed about. This means that the lack of transparency in the bidding process leads to asymmetric information between the bidders and this could be detrimental to a bidder and for the benefit of another. This paper has been written in order to investigate how consumers and the housing market is Affected by the law not regulating the estate agent to inform all the bidders of conditions attached To the bids. Previously nothing has been written on this subject, which means that this paper is of an explorative--‐ and investigative character. Since there was no access to any secondary data in this study, the major part of the work was to collect primary data. The collection of data consisted of a survey to estate agents, a survey/interview to uyers/speculators And interviews with a number of individuals with special expertise in the subject. The investigations carried out, resulted in a discussion and analysis of how consumers are affected by The estate agent not having to provide information about conditional bids to all bidders. The answers in interviews is not conclusive, there are both pros and cons of not having the bidding Process regulated by law. The conclusion also includes a discussion on how housing prices can be affected by the bidding not being regulated by law regarding conditions. This conclusion is that the prices could both increase and decrease by a regulation of the bidding process, depending on the scenario.

Le taux de lacunes y/3 constitue une signature des precurseurs et des temperatures de cristallisation. Par exemple, dans les bauxites etudiees, le caractere lacunaire marque des hematites (18-28 %mole ) montre qu'elles resultent du vieillissement de precurseurs de type gels ferriques ou ferrihydrite dans des conditions de forte sursaturarion en fer. En revanche, le caractere faiblement lacunaire des goethites alumineuses (10-13 %mole ) reflete une dissolution partielle d'un precurseur gel, ferrihydrite ou hematite et une croissance cristalline en milieu faiblement sursature.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis examines the "timing" of equity issues. We seek to find the factors that "drive" the time series variation in the equity issuance activity. Our main motivation is to see whether the Initial Public Offerings, Seasoned equity offerings and Takeover activity financed with equity move together. Our second motivation is to see whether certain individual factors affect the timing of the three corporate activities. We focus our research effort on whether business conditions, adverse selection costs and "sentiment timing" can explain the variation in equity issue activity across time. Economic conditions have a significant effect on equity issuance activity. More firms make an IPO and more capital is raised from IPOs during the upturn of the business cycle relative to the downturn of the cycle. The impact of economic conditions on the SEO volume is also positive but marginally significant. In addition, more bidders use equity to finance a takeover bid during the upturn of the business cycle. The improvement of business conditions has a significant effect on the magnitude of adverse selection costs associated with the announcement of a SEO and a takeover bid that is financed with equity. During the upturn of the business cycle the market reacts less adversely to the announcement of these actions while in the downturn of the cycle the announcement of the SEO and the equity financed bid is accompanied by more negative returns. Underpricing for IPOs however is not lower during the upturn of the business cycle. Firms that make an IPO, a SEO and a takeover bid that is financed with equity are associated with significant adverse share price movements which impose significant indirect costs to the issuers and bidders. This thesis investigates how these costs affect the timing of the three corporate actions. The magnitude of adverse selection costs has a significant effect only on the volume of Seasoned equity offerings with more firms making a rights issue during periods when the announcement of the recent rights issues is accompanied by less negative returns. IPO volume is not higher when the average first day returns of the recent IPOs are low and the percentage of bidders that use equity to finance the bid over all bidders is not higher when the drop of the share price of the bidder on the announcement of the recent equity financed bids is smaller. It has been widely documented that firms which make an IPO, a SEO and a takeover bid that is financed with equity offer inferior returns to their shareholders in the post-issue period. Cognitive bias and deliberate timing of these actions at periods when share prices are irrationally high are the best explanations that the literature has provided for the underperformance. We find a significant underperformance of SEOs and bidders that use equity to finance the bid and IPOs if the high first day returns are not included. These findings suggest that the above firms are overvalued at the time these action take place but does not address whether variations in volume across time are driven by variation in the degree of overvaluation. We find that only variations in IPO volume are driven by variations in the degree of overvaluation. Periods when more capital is raised from IPOs are periods when the average IPO is more overvalued than IPOs that go public in periods when IPO activity slows down. Variations in the SEO volume and the equity financed takeover activity are not driven by overvaluation exploitation. Time series regressions on the amount raised from IPOs and SEOs reveals the significant role of investors' sentiment on the timing of equity issues. We use financial analysts earnings forecasts as a proxy for market sentiment and we find that more capital is raised from IPOs during periods when analysts' earnings forecasts for the recent IPOs are more optimistic. We also find that more capital is raised from SEOs during periods when analysts' earnings forecasts for the recent SEOs are more overoptimistic. Previous empirical studies suggest that firms time the issues at the peak of their profitability. Our evidence from financial analysts earnings forecast revisions reveal that SEO firms time the issue after a period of high earnings growth and prior to a small deterioration in earnings while IPO firms time the issue at the beginning or during a period of sustainable earnings growth and not at the peak of their profitability.

With more opportunities available to men and women to interact, both professionally and personally (i.e., the workplace, educational setting, community), friendships with members of the opposite sex are becoming more common. Increasingly, researchers have noted that one facet that makes cross-sex friendships unique compared to other types of relationships (i.e. romantic love, same-sex friendships, familial relationships), is that there is the possibility and opportunity for a romantic or sexual relationship to manifest. Communication research has yet to investigate how one decides whether to begin a romantic or sexual relationship or choose to remain platonic with their cross-sex friend. Given that cross-sex friendships deal with a lot of ambiguity regarding the nature of the friendship, this researcher sought to uncover what factors determine whether parties reciprocate romantic or sexual interest or opt to remain platonic through the theoretical lens of interaction adaptation theory. Specifically, the researcher sought to determine what expectations and desires predict compensation or reciprocity of romantic or sexual desires. At a large Southeastern university, quantitative data were collected from 307 participants. The results indicated that of the variables, Not Attracted, Incompatibility, and closeness were significant predictors of romantic reciprocation. In the case of 'friends with benefit' relationships, the results indicated that of the variables, Not Attracted, Sexual/Romantic Potential, sex, and sexual attitudes were significant predictors of sexual reciprocity. Further explanations of results, limitations, and future directions for research are discussed.M.A.

The main purpose of this thesis is to test a communications solution for the second to largest refugee settlement in the world, Bidi Bidi. A solution where it is possible to inform the refugees with necessary information, for example that the water at a specific location is currently contaminated or that food is provided at another location. The idea is to use nRF24L01+ modules which operate in the 2.4 GHz frequency band and send information through various ways. This includes turning LEDs' on and off, sending text Strings and streaming audio. The results showed that the modules are too unreliable for a refugee settlement. They also showed that it is not possible to send other types' of data while streaming audio, but there could be workarounds. It is clear that more knowledge and further investigations are needed.

Scientific problem: In order to maintain a competitive position in the market, companies need to create an environment of sustained development. Growing companies basically have two choices: expand internally, known as organic growth, or expand externally by a merger or acquisition (M&A). It is widely known that in almost all acquisitions the price paid by the acquiring firm tends to be much higher than the market value of the target firm before the bid, this is called an acquisition premium. There are different ways of financing an acquisition, for example with cash or stock. Previous research within this topic have concluded the M&As follow the market, as well as premiums. Therefore, an assumption made by the authors is that when there is a boom in the market, the stock exchange quota-tion takes a certain movement and the number of acquisitions that are made increases, as well as the premiums paid, and further to check if the means of payment changes whether there is a bull or bear market.
Purpose: “The general aim of this thesis is to examine acquisitions on the Swedish market in order to estimate the relation between the OMXS index and the number of acquisition bids, the acquisitions pre-mium and the means of payment.”
Method: To investigate whether a relation between the OMXS and the amount of take-over bids, simple regression analyses was the preferred model, having the bids as being de-pendent upon market performance of the OMXS index. This way, any significant lag ef-fect, the time it takes for a bidder to present a bid offer, could be recognized and used as a benchmark. This model was carried on to the remaining questions as well; whether premi-ums are affected by the stock market, and which way the acquisitions was financed, cash or stock. The time period selected for data collection was 1994 to 2004, allowing the authors a wide enough time-span to interpret at least one bull, and one bear market. The model will be based upon secondary data of market quotes and a quantitative approach will be util-ized.
Results: The authors claim that a relation between the number of acquisition bids and market movement does exist. This evidence shows that an important decision as the one of deciding whether or not to merge or acquire another firm, might not be as rational as tho-ught. Instead, it is influenced on the environment around it, with the OMXS index as one of them. When it comes to the two remaining questions, if premiums and means of pay-ment are affected by the OMXS index, the obtained answers do not provide a positive rela-tion. And thus, this thesis cannot support earlier studies that state that a relation is present.

This thesis traces the history and development of the facilities for electronic music in the UK. It covers the early attempts to experiment with electronic music and create studios in less than ideal circumstances and the subsequent bids to create a national centre. It also covers some elements of worldwide development of electronic music and sound recording, in particular those which occurred before 1965. The thesis calls upon non-traditional sources and the author was able to access many documents in the personal archives of electronic music pioneers. There is substantial reference to committees and societies for electronic music and their effects on the development of facilities for electronic music in the UK. Some of the early pioneers are studied in detail; these include Daphne Oram, Tristram Cary and Hugh Davies. Unprecedented access to information on Hugh Davies and Daphne Oram was provided by the family estates of these recently deceased composers. This allowed the author to gain valuable insight into the working patterns and methodology of these composers. Many references to later pioneers such as Trevor Wishart are also made but the focus remains on the facilities available to composers rather than the composers and their works.

O objeto de estudo deste trabalho é a análise da responsabilidade civil do Estado, frente aos danos ambientais resultantes de contratos administrativos, quais sejam, aqueles contratos firmados entre o Poder Público e o particular. Trata-se de uma pesquisa nãoexperimental, revestida de levantamento bibliográfico, abrangendo doutrina, teses e artigos científicos. A forma de abordagem do problema apresenta resultados qualitativos. A Lei n. 6.938 de 31 de agosto de 1981, dispõe sobre a Política Nacional do Meio Ambiente e estabelece a responsabilização civil pelo dano ambiental causado direta ou indiretamente por pessoa física ou jurídica, de direito público ou privado. Desta maneira, se torna possível a condenação do Estado por previsão de lei. O ordenamento jurídico brasileiro adota a responsabilidade civil objetiva para apuração das lesões ao meio ambiente e esta se configura com a simples comprovação do nexo causal, não necessitando de comprovação de dolo ou culpa do agente. Já a Lei n. 8.666 de 21 de junho de 1993, institui a Lei de Licitações e Contratos Administrativos e defini como obrigação do Estado fiscalizar a execução dos contratos por ele firmados, não sendo esta uma disposição facultativa. Frente a este comprometimento, pode o Poder Público responder pelos danos ambientais resultantes da execução dos contratados, ações estas efetuadas por terceiros. Esta obrigação é classificada como solidária e não subsidiária, devendo o administrador público em caso de condenação, procurar reaver seus prejuízos amortizados em busca da justa distribuição da avença por meio de ação de regresso. Dada à possibilidade de condenação, apresenta esta pesquisa a discussão de algumas medidas a serem utilizadas e outras já praticadas por alguns administradores públicos na tentativa de resguardar o interesse público, buscando procedimentos e contratos administrativos seguros e eficazes. Estas hipóteses inovadoras possuem embasamento legal e não configuram desrespeito aos princípios das licitações públicas, como, por exemplo, ao da impessoalidade e ao da igualdade entre os licitantes. Esta pesquisa possui, ainda que de maneira intrínseca, interesse de inserir a proteção ambiental às licitações públicas, na medida em que busca discutir a responsabilização civil pelos danos ambientais e os mecanismos que se deve seguir para evitar a condenação e, consequentemente, a própria realização de atos ambientalmente condenáveis.The object of study of this work is to examine the civil liability of the State, front of environmental damage resulting from administrative contracts, which are those contracts signed between the government and the private. This is a non-experimental research, coated with bibliographic, covering doctrine, theses and scientific articles. The way to approach the problem presents qualitative results. The Law no. 6938 to 31 August 1981, available on the National Environmental Policy and establishing the civil liability for environmental damage caused directly or indirectly by natural or legal person, public or private law. Thus, it is possible to condemn the State of law by forecast. The Brazilian legal system adopts the civil liability objective, for investigation of injuries the environment and this is configured with a simple proof of causation, not requiring proof of intent or fault of the agent. Already the Law no. 8666 to 21 June 1993, establishing the Law of Tenders and Contracts Administrative and defined as an obligation of the State to supervise the execution of contracts signed by him, not being an optional provision. In front of this commitment, the government can answer for the damage resulting from the implementation of the contract, these actions taken by third. This obligation is classified as subsidiary and not as solidarity, should the public administrator in case of conviction, seek recover their losses amortized in search of fair distribution of flat through action to return. Given the possibility of condemnation, this research presents a discussion of some measures to be used and others already practiced by some public administrators in an attempt to protect the public interest, seeking procedures and contracts administrative safe and effective. These assumptions have innovative legal basement and do not constitute disregard the principles of public bids, for example, the impersonality and equality among the bidders. This research has, even so intrinsic, interest of the insert of environmental protection to public bids, in that seeks to discuss the civil liability for environmental damage and the mechanisms that must be followed to avoid conviction and consequently the actual implementation of environmentally reprehensible acts.
