Defending the Nordic model: Understanding the moral universe of the Norwegian working class
2021
In recent years, much attention has been paid to the white working class’ concern with their declining position in the neoliberal era. The hypothesis that social and economic insecurity provoke anger and xenophobia are unable to account for the Norwegian case. The Nordic model still acts as a buffer against neoliberal capitalism, making the white Norwegian working class less vulnerable than in comparable countries. This paper will argue that the Norwegian working class has defended the Nordic model by utilising a range of moral values. I use 56 qualitative interviews to examine the morality of the white Norwegian working class. The study is theoretically and methodologically inspired by Bol…
Growth form matters – Crustose lichens on dead wood are sensitive to forest management
2022
Lichens have a vital role in forest ecosystems and they are a threatened group in boreal forests. However, the conservation ecology of the total lichen community has very rarely been studied. Here we studied lichen species and communities, including macrolichens (=foliose and fruticose growth forms) and rarely studied crustose li-chens, on decaying wood in boreal spruce-dominated forests in Finland. We also studied obligate lignicoles that grow only on dead wood and are mostly crustose in growth form. Species richness and community composition were examined on decaying logs and natural or cut stumps of Picea abies at different decay stages (2-5) in 14 stands, half of which were natural or s…
Evolution Problems Associated to Linear Growth Functionals: The Dirichlet Problem
2003
Let Ω be a bounded set inIR N with Lipschitz continuous boundary ∂Ω. We are interested in the problem
Absolutely continuous functions with values in a Banach space
2017
Abstract Let Ω be an open subset of R n , n > 1 , and let X be a Banach space. We prove that α-absolutely continuous functions f : Ω → X are continuous and differentiable (in some sense) almost everywhere in Ω.
A note on best approximation in 0-complete partial metric spaces
2014
We study the existence and uniqueness of best proximity points in the setting of 0-complete partial metric spaces. We get our results by showing that the generalizations, which we have to consider, are obtained from the corresponding results in metric spaces. We introduce some new concepts and consider significant theorems to support this fact.
A remark on absolutely continuous functions in ℝ n
2006
We introduce the notion ofα, λ-absolute continuity for functions of several variables and we compare it with the Hencl’s definition. We obtain that eachα, λ-absolutely continuous function isn, λ-absolutely continuous in the sense of Hencl and hence is continuous, differentiable almost everywhere and satisfies change of variables results based on a coarea formula and an area formula.
On the existence of conditionally invariant probability measures in dynamical systems
2000
Let T : X→X be a measurable map defined on a Polish space X and let Y be a non-trivial subset of X. We give conditions ensuring the existence of conditionally invariant probability measures to non-absorption in Y. For dynamics which are non-singular with respect to some fixed probability measure we supply sufficient conditions for the existence of absolutely continuous conditionally invariant measures. These conditions are satisfied for a wide class of dynamical systems including systems that are Φ-mixing and Gibbs.
Absolute continuity for Banach space valued mappings
2007
We consider the notion of p,λ,δ-absolute continuity for Banach space valued mappings introduced in [2] for real valued functions and for λ = 1. We investigate the validity of some basic properties that are shared by n, λ-absolutely continuous functions in the sense of Maly and Hencl. We introduce the class $δ-BV^p_{λ,loc}$ and we give a characterization of the functions belonging to this class.
Stancu–Schurer–Kantorovich operators based on q-integers
2015
The goal of this paper is to introduce and study q analogue of Stancu-Schurer-Kantorovich operators. A convergence theorem using the well known Bohman-Korovkin criterion is proven and the rate of convergence involving the modulus of continuity is established. The estimate of the rate of convergence by means of the Lipshitz function is considered. Furthermore, we obtained a Voronovskaja type result for these operators. Also, we investigate the statistical approximation properties of these operators using Korovkin type statistical approximation theorem.
