Unemployment in Jordan

2005

The focus of this report (prepared in the framework of the ETF Observatory function project) is unemployment. However, considering that unemployment information in itself should not be used or analysed in isolation from other indicators or data, the report begins by providing an overview of the general labour market situation in Jordan. After the main data on employment by sector, age, gender and level of education are presentented, on the basis of the available information, the specific cases of non-Jordanian employees and employment in the informal economy are highlighted as topics requiring special attention in the Jordanian labour market.

Topologinen aste

2017

Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on luoda perusta topologiselle asteelle, ja todistaa siihen liittyviä tuloksia. Topologinen aste määritellään aluksi jatkuvasti derivoituville funktioille jossakin kyseisen funktion kuvapisteessä. Nämä ovat useasti moniulotteisia funktioita, joiden määrittelyjoukko ja kuvapisteiden joukko ovat samassa ulottuvuudessa. Topologinen aste tarkastelee funktion kuvapisteen alkukuvien ympäristön kuvautumista derivaattamatriisin determinantin avulla. Mikäli Jacobin determinantti saa positiivisen arvon, lisätään topologiseen asteeseen kokonaisluku yksi. Jos taas derivaattamatriisin arvo on negatiivinen kyseisen kuvapisteen alkukuvassa, topologisesta asteesta vähennetään…

Lattices of Jordan algebras

2010

AbstractCommutative Jordan algebras play a central part in orthogonal models. The generations of these algebras is studied and applied in deriving lattices of such algebras. These lattices constitute the natural framework for deriving new orthogonal models through factor aggregation and disaggregation.

Spaces of Liberation? Geo-Hermeneutical Reading of the New Women’s Novel in Jordan

2017

Contemporary feminist novelists in Jordan are raising issues of emancipation, patriarchal society, violence against women and social attitudes in unaccustomed ways unknown earlier in the country. This is embedded within the political and socio-economic developments taking place in the country since 1990. The main aim of this scenario is to explore and to re-think the space-gender nexus in the new women’s novel using geo-hermeneutical approaches.

Chemical composition and biological activities of Artemisia judaica essential oil from southern desert of Jordan

2016

Abstract Ethnopharmacologic relevance Artemisia judaica L. (Arabic name: Beithran ), is a medicinal and aromatic plant growing in the valley bottoms of desert areas, particularly in the southern desert of Jordan nearest to the Jordan-Saudi Arabia borders and in Wadi Araba in the Southern Badia. In Jordan, A. judaica is widely used in traditional medicine being recommended by aboriginal Bedouins in the North Badia region of Jordan as calmative. Furthermore, it is used for the treatment of stomach ache, heart diseases, sexual weakness, diabetes, gastro-intestinal disorders and external wounding. Additionally, other folk medicines of the Arabic region commonly use this aromatic plant for the t…

Earliest Evidence for Social Endogamy in the 9,000-Year-Old-Population of Basta, Jordan

2013

The transition from mobile to sedentary life was one of the greatest social challenges of the human past. Yet little is known about the impact of this fundamental change on social interactions amongst early Neolithic communities, which are best recorded in the Near East. The importance of social processes associated with these economic and ecological changes has long been underestimated. However, ethnographic observations demonstrate that generalized reciprocity – such as open access to resources and land – had to be reduced to a circumscribed group before regular farming and herding could be successfully established. Our aim was thus to investigate the role of familial relationships as one…

A proof of Carleson's 𝜀2-conjecture

2021

In this paper we provide a proof of the Carleson 𝜀2-conjecture. This result yields a characterization (up to exceptional sets of zero length) of the tangent points of a Jordan curve in terms of the finiteness of the associated Carleson 𝜀2-square function. peerReviewed

Invariant Jordan curves of Sierpinski carpet rational maps

2015

In this paper, we prove that if $R\colon\widehat{\mathbb{C}}\to\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$ is a postcritically finite rational map with Julia set homeomorphic to the Sierpi\'nski carpet, then there is an integer $n_0$, such that, for any $n\ge n_0$, there exists an $R^n$-invariant Jordan curve $\Gamma$ containing the postcritical set of $R$.
