Rescaling principle for isolated essential singularities of quasiregular mappings
2012
We establish a rescaling theorem for isolated essential singularities of quasiregular mappings. As a consequence we show that the class of closed manifolds receiving a quasiregular mapping from a punctured unit ball with an essential singularity at the origin is exactly the class of closed quasiregularly elliptic manifolds, that is, closed manifolds receiving a non-constant quasiregular mapping from a Euclidean space.
Almost square Banach spaces
2014
We single out and study a natural class of Banach spaces -- almost square Banach spaces. In an almost square space we can find, given a finite set $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_N$ in the unit sphere, a unit vector $y$ such that $\|x_i-y\|$ is almost one. These spaces have duals that are octahedral and finite convex combinations of slices of the unit ball of an almost square space have diameter 2. We provide several examples and characterizations of almost square spaces. We prove that non-reflexive spaces which are M-ideals in their biduals are almost square. We show that every separable space containing a copy of $c_0$ can be renormed to be almost square. A local and a weak version of almost square spa…
Analytic structure in fibers of H∞(Bc0)
2020
Abstract Let H ∞ ( B c 0 ) be the algebra of all bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit ball of c 0 and M ( H ∞ ( B c 0 ) ) the spectrum of H ∞ ( B c 0 ) . We prove that for any point z in the closed unit ball of l ∞ there exists an analytic injection of the open ball B l ∞ into the fiber of z in M ( H ∞ ( B c 0 ) ) , which is an isometry from the Gleason metric of B l ∞ to the Gleason metric of M ( H ∞ ( B c 0 ) ) . We also show that, for some Banach spaces X, B l ∞ can be analytically injected into the fiber M z ( H ∞ ( B X ) ) for every point z ∈ B X .
Diameter 2 properties and convexity
2015
We present an equivalent midpoint locally uniformly rotund (MLUR) renorming $X$ of $C[0,1]$ on which every weakly compact projection $P$ satisfies the equation $\|I-P\| = 1+\|P\|$ ($I$ is the identity operator on $X$). As a consequence we obtain an MLUR space $X$ with the properties D2P, that every non-empty relatively weakly open subset of its unit ball $B_X$ has diameter 2, and the LD2P+, that for every slice of $B_X$ and every norm 1 element $x$ inside the slice there is another element $y$ inside the slice of distance as close to 2 from $x$ as desired. An example of an MLUR space with the D2P, the LD2P+, and with convex combinations of slices of arbitrary small diameter is also given.
Multiple benefits but almost as many obstacles : teachers and students' perceptions of the integration English and vocational studies in University o…

Integraatio on opetusmenetelmä, jossa pyritään häivyttämään eri aineiden välisiä rajoja muodostamalla aineiden välille yhteyksiä. Integroitu opetus voidaan nähdä erityisen hyödyllisenä ammattikorkeakoulujen kontekstissa, jossa opetuksen tavoitteena on tarjota opiskelijoille työelämän tiedot ja taidot kokonaisvaltaisessa muodossa. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää ammattikorkeakoulun opettajien ja opiskelijoiden käsityksiä ja asenteita englannin ja ammattiaineen integraation tavoista sekä hyödyistä ja haitoista. Tutkimuksen teoreettinen viitekehys kartoittaa englannin kielen opetusta ammattikorkeakoulussa ja integraatiota opetusilmiönä korkeakoulutuksen kontekstissa. Tutkimus toteu…
Status of new 18 GHz ECRIS HIISI
2018
A new 18 GHz ECR ion source HIISI is under commissioning at the Accelerator Laboratory at the University of Jyvaskyla (JYFL). The main purpose of HIISI is to produce high-energy beam cocktails, e.g. Xe44+, for radiation effects testing of electronics with the K130 cyclotron. The initial commissioning results in 18+14 GHz operation with oxygen, argon and xenon are reported. The beam currents are compared to those produced by reference ion sources (JYFL 14 GHz ECRIS, GTS and SuSI). At the moment (October 2017) 560 µA of O6+ and 310 µA of Ar13+, for example, have been reached with HIISI at 2.3 kW total power.A new 18 GHz ECR ion source HIISI is under commissioning at the Accelerator Laboratory…
Exploring the best classification from average feature combination
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Abstract and Applied Analysis. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/602763 Open Access Feature combination is a powerful approach to improve object classification performance. While various combination algorithms have been proposed, average combination is almost always selected as the baseline algorithm to be compared with. In previous work we have found that it is better to use only a sample of the most powerful features in average combination than using all. In this paper, we continue this work and further show that the behaviors of features in average combination can be integrated into the k-Nearest-Neighbor …
A Personalist Ontological Approach to Synthetic Biology
2015
Although synthetic biology is a promising discipline, it also raises serious ethical questions that must be addressed in order to prevent unwanted consequences and to ensure that its progress leads toward the good of all. Questions arise about the role of this discipline in a possible redefinition of the concept of life and its creation. With regard to the products of synthetic biology, the moral status that they should be given as well as the ethically correct way to behave towards them are not clear. Moreover, risks that could result from a misuse of this technology or from an accidental release of synthetic organisms into the environment cannot be ignored; concerns about biosecurity and …
I hate my workplace but I am very attached to it: workplace attachment style
2017
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether different patterns of workplace attachment exist and to explore the relations between adult attachment styles and the level of workplace attachment. Design/methodology/approach Participants were 351 Italian employees who completed a questionnaire composed of the Workplace Attachment Scale and the Relationship Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using correspondence analysis. Findings The results showed that high scores on workplace attachment correlated significantly with secure attachment style, while low scores correlated with insecure attachment styles. These results shed light on different workplace attachment styles. Research l…
The Concept of Value for CSR: A Debate Drawn from Italian Classical Accounting
2017
This paper underlines the importance of the concept of value for corporate social responsibility (CSR) and then explores it beyond economics, looking for its social and philosophical roots. Considering the most recent literature on the matter, the dilemma between a non-monetary, multi-variable conception and a monetary, one-variable conception is set. To obtain the origins of the meaning for this basic concept in CSR, Italian literature regarding ‘value in accounting’ is explored. The main result from this first survey is the existence of a ‘chain’ from the highest conception of value (philosophical, ethical), to the most practical conception (accounting techniques of measurement). By this …
