The impact of user’s availability on On-line Ego Networks: a Facebook analysis
2016
We have defined and implemented a Facebook application to log a Facebook dataset.We have studied and validated the structural properties of the whole dataset and of the Dunbar ego networks.We have analyzed the interactions of the users.The availability of the users in the Dunbar ego networks have been investigated.Our results reveal the presence of the temporal homophily property in the Dunbar ego networks. Online Social Networks (OSNs) are the most popular applications in todays Internet and they have changed the way people interact with each other. Understanding the structural properties of OSNs and, in particular, how users behave when they connect to OSNs is crucial for designing user-c…
Participación asociativa percibida en contextos socio-educativos: validación de contenido
2019
En las asociaciones del Tercer Sector de acción socioeducativa se han ido estableciendo lógicas, políticas y prácticas para acreditar la calidad de los servicios. Este tipo de orientaciones organizativas son similares a los procedimientos que se han llevado a cabo en los últimos años, en otros contextos educativos, y que han mermado considerablemente la participación real y eficaz de los principales agentes implicados. A ello se suma la falta de estándares para evaluar la participación asociativa percibida. Atendiendo a esta problemática, nos planteamos el objetivo de establecer unos indicadores válidos que permitan registrar la perspectiva de los socios y los profesionales acerca de su par…
Quasiadditivity of Variational Capacity
2013
We study the quasiadditivity property (a version of superadditivity with a multiplicative constant) of variational capacity in metric spaces with respect to Whitney type covers. We characterize this property in terms of a Mazya type capacity condition, and also explore the close relation between quasiadditivity and Hardy's inequality.
Hybrid molecular conductors
2005
One of the most important trends in the field of organic conductors aims towards the design of hybrid materials, following the strategy of combining in a single compound organic cationic radicals able to give rise to conducting architectures with functional molecular anions able to add a second physical property of interest. Ferromagnetic metals, magnetic superconductors, chiral conductors and switchable conductors are some of the most recent and spectacular materials obtained from this approach. The design and physical studies of some relevant examples are discussed and highlighted.
Semi-Regular Triangle Remeshing: A Comprehensive Study
2014
Semi-regular triangle remeshing algorithms convert irregular surface meshes into semi-regular ones. Especially in the field of computer graphics, semi-regularity is an interesting property because it makes meshes highly suitable for multi-resolution analysis. In this paper, we survey the numerous remeshing algorithms that have been developed over the past two decades. We propose different classifications to give new and comprehensible insights into both existing methods and issues. We describe how considerable obstacles have already been overcome, and discuss promising perspectives.
Curves as measured foliation on noncompact surfaces
1993
In the present work, that regards the Thurston's theory, we prove that, if we choose a closed curve, how we wish, on a noncompact surface, it is always possible to construct a particular masured foliation that has the choosed curve like a leaf; we also prove this foliation has a remarkable property that makes very easy to mesure all homotopy classes of closed curves of our surface. To prove this statement we need some Propositions and some Lemma that we also demonstre.
How the strategic objectives pursued in inter-firm relationships influence the choice of the governance form: an empirical study in two high-tech Ita…
2012
In today’s competitive landscape, the choice of the appropriate mode to governance an inter-firm relationship is an important factor for companies. In literature several theoretical strands have examined the impact of the alliance purpose on the governance forms. Building on a robust literature review on the topic, this study focuses on a specific issue influencing the choice of the governance form in inter-firm relationships, i.e. the alliances’ purpose with relation to partner’s resources. We gather in a unique framework three typologies of partner’s resources, i.e. production, R&D and marketing, and through two empirical analyses in two different Italian industries, machine tool and phar…
Fixed point results on metric-type spaces
2014
Abstract In this paper we obtain fixed point and common fixed point theorems for self-mappings defined on a metric-type space, an ordered metric-type space or a normal cone metric space. Moreover, some examples and an application to integral equations are given to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.
Some new extensions of Edelstein-Suzuki-type fixed point theorem to G-metric and G-cone metric spaces
2013
Abstract In this paper, we prove some fixed point theorems for generalized contractions in the setting of G -metric spaces. Our results extend a result of Edelstein [M. Edelstein, On fixed and periodic points under contractive mappings, J. London Math. Soc., 37 (1962), 74–79] and a result of Suzuki [T. Suzuki, A new type of fixed point theorem in metric spaces, Nonlinear Anal., 71 (2009), 5313–5317]. We prove, also, a fixed point theorem in the setting of G -cone metric spaces.
The Peace Treaty of Fredrikshamn and its Aftermath in Sweden and Finland
2010
This article analyses the Peace Treaty of Fredrikshamn (Hamina in Finnish) and its consequences in Sweden and Finland. The Russians set strict preconditions for the commencement of peace negotiations with the Swedes in the summer of 1809. These conditions were realized almost <em>in toto</em> in the final peace treaty, which consisted of just twenty-one articles. In addition to regulations directly related to the ending of hostilities, the main provisions of the agreement entailed huge territorial losses for Sweden, strictly defining the regions it was to cede to Russia, the most important of which was Finland. Sweden was also enjoined to give up its alliance with Britain and to…
