On the History of Differentiable Manifolds

2012

International audience; We discuss central aspects of history of the concept of an affine dif-ferentiable manifold, as a proposal confirming the need for using some quantitative methods (drawn from elementary Model Theory) in Mathematical Historiography. In particular, we prove that this geometric structure is a syntactic rigid designator in the sense of Kripke-Putnam.

A simple methodology for comparing cost-benefit of traditional, green and cool roofs

2019

Energy policy makers, architects and researchers, when designing new buildings or rehabilitating the existing ones, are engaged in the attempt of limiting the energy needs for climatization (NZEB buildings) and the environmental pressure exerted by buildings (EU Climate Action). The pursuit of this demanding assignment calls for innovative solutions in conceiving the building envelope and its energy systems. Recently, among the most effective tools for improving the energy and environmental performances of buildings, the technical interventions regarding the roofs are gaining a rising attention. Indeed, covers of buildings are responsible of a relevant part of their energy losses and, on th…

Voisinages tubulaires épointés et homotopie stable à l'infini

2022

We initiate a study of punctured tubular neighborhoods and homotopy theory at infinity in motivic settings. We use the six functors formalism to give an intrinsic definition of the stable motivic homotopy type at infinity of an algebraic variety. Our main computational tools include cdh-descent for normal crossing divisors, Euler classes, Gysin maps, and homotopy purity. Under-adic realization, the motive at infinity recovers a formula for vanishing cycles due to Rapoport-Zink; similar results hold for Steenbrink's limiting Hodge structures and Wildeshaus' boundary motives. Under the topological Betti realization, the stable motivic homotopy type at infinity of an algebraic variety recovers…

Colombeau algebras are defined as quotients of spaces containing the representatives of generalized functions given by smooth mappings: R:C∞(Ω,D(Ω))→C∞(Ω), where Ω is an open subset of Rn. In this paper the notion of locality defined by the author for a representative R of a nonlinear generalized function is characterized in such a way that the representative depends only on its ∞-jet. Finally, the author examines the possibility of defining a notion of order for the mapping R.

Tidlig algebra : en studie av tidlig algebra med elever på 6. trinn

2016

Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk – Universitetet i Agder 2016 The main theme for the research described in this thesis is early algebra. Early algebra is a phase that could fit the gap between arithmetic and algebra. Early algebra includes algebraic reasoning, such as analyzing relationships between quantities, noticing structure, studying change, or generalizing, without a need to use symbols. In my Theoretical Frame, I define the terms early algebra, algebraic thinking, and generalization; I explain the differences between early algebra and pre-algebra, and I go into the relationships between arithmetic and algebra. To gain insight into early algebra, I have studied how pupils in 6th gra…

A role for backward transitional probabilities in word segmentation?

2008

A number of studies have shown that people exploit transitional probabilities between successive syllables to segment a stream of artificial continuous speech into words. It is often assumed that what is actually exploited are the forward transitional probabilities (given XY, the probability that X will be followed by Y ), even though the backward transitional probabilities (the probability that Y has been preceded by X) were equally informative about word structure in the languages involved in those studies. In two experiments, we showed that participants were able to learn the words from an artificial speech stream when the only available cues were the backward transitional probabilities.…

A Rare Accident

2007

In 1964, I moved from Vienna to Homburg/Saar to take an Associate Professor position in one of the most recognized departments of urology headed by Prof. C.E. Alken. Still on duty at 4 p.m., I received a call from the chief of the surgical department to join him immediately in the emergency room.
