On the arithmetic of a family of degree-two K3 surfaces
2018
Let $\mathbb{P}$ denote the weighted projective space with weights $(1,1,1,3)$ over the rationals, with coordinates $x,y,z,$ and $w$; let $\mathcal{X}$ be the generic element of the family of surfaces in $\mathbb{P}$ given by \begin{equation*} X\colon w^2=x^6+y^6+z^6+tx^2y^2z^2. \end{equation*} The surface $\mathcal{X}$ is a K3 surface over the function field $\mathbb{Q}(t)$. In this paper, we explicitly compute the geometric Picard lattice of $\mathcal{X}$, together with its Galois module structure, as well as derive more results on the arithmetic of $\mathcal{X}$ and other elements of the family $X$.
The Use of a Surgical Patch in the Prevention of Lymphoceles After Extraperitoneal Pelvic Lymphadenectomy for Prostate Cancer: A Randomized Prospecti…
2009
Purpose: Pelvic lymphadenectomy is frequently performed simultaneously with radical prostatectomy to determine lymph node status and the most frequently recorded postoperative complication is the development of a symptomatic lymphocele. This study evaluated TachoSil® as an adjunct treatment in preventing lymphoceles after extraperitoneal pelvic lymphadenectomy for prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 60 consecutive patients who had undergone radical prostatectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy were prospectively enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly assigned to a standard technique with the use of clips and electrocoagulation plus TachoSil, or to standard technique on…
Improved tau polarisation measurement
1996
Using 22 pb−1 of data collected at LEP in 1992 on the peak of the Z resonance, the ALEPH collaboration has measured the polarisation of the tau leptons decaying into $$ev\bar v, \mu v\bar v$$ ,πν, ρν and a1 ν from their individual decay product distributions. The measurement of the tau polarisation as a function of the production polar angle yields the two parametersN τ andN e, where, in terms of the axial and vector couplingsg Al andg Vl,N l=2g Vl gAl/(g Vl 2 +g 2 ). This analysis follows to a large extent the methods devised for the 1990 and 1991 data but with improvements which bring a better understanding of the systematic uncertainties. Combining the 1992 measurements with our previous…
Musicales traducidos y censurados en los escenarios españoles (1955-1985)
2015
[EN] The TRACEmu catalogue (Censored translations of musical productions,1955-1985) compiled from Spanish censorship archives will serve as a starting point to analize the most representative cases of the period: Man of La Mancha (1966), Godspell (1974), Hair and Jesus Christ Superstar (1975). [ES] Esta contribución analiza, a partir del análisis del catálogo de espectáculos musicales traducidos (censurados) y representados en los escenarios españoles (TRACEmu, 1955-1985), recopilado en los archivos de censura, los casos más representativos del periodo: El hombre de la Mancha (1966), Godspell (1974), Hair y Jesucristo Superstar (1975).

“Following in the footprint of the teacher”: A methodological approach for the treatment of memory repression in the class
2017
La “represión de la memoria” es un fenómeno que reconstruye y tergiversa los recuerdos en torno al periodo de ciudadanía activa anterior a la Guerra Civil Española y en torno al brutal proceso represivo del régimen franquista, afectando así a la propia configuración de la sociedad actual. En este trabajo se realiza una diagnosis de este fenómeno en el espacio educativo y se presenta una propuesta didáctica que luche contra esta represión llevando la propia memoria al aula como objeto de estudio e intentando convertir a los alumnos en investigadores y, lo más importante, en ciudadanos críticos The “repressed memory” is a phenomenon that reconstructs and distorts memories around the active ci…
Graphic model for evaluating the competitiveness and eco-efficiency of eco-innovative projects
2019
Eco-innovation describes the creation of novel and competitively priced goods, processes, systems, services, policies, and procedures that satisfy human needs and improve the quality of life while ensuring sustainable development with minimal use of natural resources and minimal release of toxic substances. This article delves into one of the most pressing problems in improving the assessment of eco-innovative projects meant to effect sustainable development. The article also proposes new criteria for evaluating eco-innovation projects. The purpose is to develop and propose a graphic model by which to assess the innovativeness, competitiveness, and eco-efficiency of eco-innovation projects.…

In ambiente storico, progettare con ordine un apparente disordine In an historic environment, design with order an ostensible disorder
2017
Il saggio indaga sul rapporto fra costruito e sua rigenerazione. Troppo spesso siamo portati a ritenere che la contemporaneità risieda solo nei manufatti pensati ex-novo, costruiti ad espressione dei linguaggi appartenenti alla scuola delle archistars; in alternativa, però, con l’uso sapiente di tecnologie differenti è possibile ripensare e rifunzionalizzare i luoghi del già vissuto, rendendo gli interventi reversibili, in un continuo rapporto fra ordine e disordine , dove il primo è metodo e progetto, mentre il secondo è il caos dell’esistente. The essay examines the relationship between the built and its regeneration. We are too often led to believe that contemporaneity lies only in manuf…
Reviving the EU project: from values to new territorial development models
2020
Le but de cet article est d’analyser les relations entre l'aménagement du territoire, la cohésion territoriale (comme but à atteindre et comme politique) et les valeurs qui sous-tendent le projet de l'Union européenne (UE). Les territoires, les cultures et l’histoire des pays de l'UE peuvent jouer un rôle afin de redéfinir l'UE comme modèle social et politique de référence à l'échelle mondiale. Dans la « nouvelle grande transition » (écologique, économique, sociale, urbaine, féministe, démocratique…), la dimension territoriale et les politiques publiques jouent un rôle clé dans la définition des futurs possibles : nouveau modèle de développement économique, nouveaux modèles spatiaux et nouv…
Whole genome sequencing of the black grouse (Tetrao tetrix): reference guided assembly suggests faster-Z and MHC evolution
2014
Background The different regions of a genome do not evolve at the same rate. For example, comparative genomic studies have suggested that the sex chromosomes and the regions harbouring the immune defence genes in the Major Histocompatability Complex (MHC) may evolve faster than other genomic regions. The advent of the next generation sequencing technologies has made it possible to study which genomic regions are evolutionary liable to change and which are static, as well as enabling an increasing number of genome studies of non-model species. However, de novo sequencing of the whole genome of an organism remains non-trivial. In this study, we present the draft genome of the black grouse, wh…
