Norms of harmonic projection operators on compact Lie groups
1988
In order to simplify the notation, we will assume throughout that G is connected, simply connected and semisimple. Sharp estimates for vp(z 0 when G = SU(2) have been obtained by Sogge [6], who proved that Vp(Zt) ~ d~ tl/v), where y(t) is the function which is affine on [1/2, 3/4] and on [3/4, 1] and is such that 7(1/2)=0, 7(3/4)=1/4, 7(1)=1. Two results in the literature give crucial estimates from below for vp(n) in the general case. The first estimate concernes the LP'-norm of the character X, : if ,~, is the highest weight of n and 0 is half the sum of the positive roots, then II x=llp,--> + 011-dimG/p" (1.2)
How Electoral Institutions Change the Influence of World Trade Integration on Trade Policies
2014
World integration levels influence opportunity costs of maintaining restrictive national trade policies. In an integrated world, restrictive trade policies are more costly than in a context of low overall levels of world market integration. We argue that policy makers can be expected to react to these varying incentives to liberalize the trade regimes of their countries, yet do so not in a uniform fashion across countries. Rather, the responsiveness to changes in levels of world trade integration is conditional upon the electoral system the country in question employs. This is due to the fact that opportunity cost considerations increase in importance with a) the degree to which policy make…
Attitude strength moderates adverse effects to questionnaire design
2018
The presentation and visual design of the “don’t know” category in rating scales on respondents’ behavior may have ambivalent effects. The hypothesis is that attitude strength toward the topic infl...
XPL the Extensible Presentation Language
2009
The last decade has witnessed a growing interest in the development of web interfaces enabling both multiple ways to access contents and, at the same time, fruition by multiple modalities of interaction (point-and-click, contents reading, voice commands, gestures, etc.). In this paper we describe a framework aimed at streamlining the design process of multi-channel, multimodal interfaces enabling full reuse of software components. This framework is called the eXtensible Presentation architecture and Language (XPL), a presentation language based on design pattern paradigm that keeps separated the presentation layer from the underlying programming logic. The language supplies a methodology to…
Communication Design for the Dissemination of Scientific Knowledge. Languages, Tools, Technologies, Collaborative Processes for Museum Education
2019
Il testo propone l’analisi di un articolato processo di ricerca-azione, avviato in occasione di alcune sperimentazioni didattico-scientifiche nate dalla collaborazione tra le discipline del design, della rappresentazione multimediale, delle scienze botaniche nell’Università di Palermo. L’esperienza proposta è stata centrata sulla comunicazione scientifica e sull’elaborazione di prodotti comunicativi per la didattica museale e istituzionale dell’Orto Botanico di Palermo. In quest’occasione sono stati sperimentati strumenti progettuali, tecnologie e modalità di espressione successivamente rielaborati anche in un progetto di sviluppo territoriale, che ha portato alla realizzazione del “Micromu…
Mutiskās prezentācijas prasmes angļu valodā akadēmiskai un profesionālai izmantošanai
2020
Prezentācijas prasmēm ir liela loma akadēmiskajā un profesionālajā jomā, jo tās palīdz informēt un izglītot, kā arī nodot vēstījumu auditorijai un attiecīgi iespaidot auditorijas reakciju uz vēstījumu. Bakalaura darba galvenais mērķis bija izpētīt kā prezentāciju prasmju apgūšana akadēmiskajā vidē palīdz sagatavoties prezentēšanai profesionālajā vidē. Literatūras analīze, anketēšana un novērošana tika izmantota kā galvenās pētniecības metodes. Prezentāciju un aptaujas analīze atklāja, ka prezentācijas prasmes var tikt izmantotas, lai ieinteresētu, pārliecinātu un izglītotu cilvēkus, un ir spēju kopums, kas palīdz mijiedarboties, nodot vēstījumu un sazināties ar publiku. Pētījumā secināts, k…
Encoding numbers: behavioral evidence for processing-specific representations.
2006
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis of a complex encoding of numbers according to which each numerical processing requires a specific representational format for input. In three experiments, adult participants were given two numbers presented successively on screen through a self-presentation procedure after being asked to add, to subtract, or to compare them. We considered the self-presentation time of the first number as reflecting the complexity of the encoding for a given planned processing. In line with Dehaene's triple-code model, self-presentation times were longer for additions and subtractions than for comparisons with two-digit numbers but longer for subtractions than…
Multiple effects of visual format on TV news learning
1991
Two experiments were conducted on edited TV newscast sequences to clarify effects of film accompaniment on learning from heard news text. In Experiment 1,150 British subjects viewed a sequence with either film format throughout or alternating film and ‘talking head’ format between items. Those items that were presented by ‘talking heads’ in the mixed sequence were learned better with film format, in which the heard text was accompanied by appropriate moving pictures. However, no effect of uniform context was found on the remaining items. In Experiment 2, 91 German subjects viewed one of four versions of a bulletin, one with ‘talking head’, one with film throughout, the other two having comp…
The Development of Spatial Location in Finnish
1991
Abstract The purpose of this research was to study the shift from mono- to bi-referential spatial location in the language of Finnish children. Monoreferential location is based on the intrinsic properties of a referent object and the proximity relationship, and bireferential location requires coordinated spatial relationships involving referent objects and a projective relationship. Locative expressions which are monoreferential include: in/on/under and intrinsic front/back, and those which are bireferential include deictic front/back and between. A pictorial representation of locative relationships with a sentence-picture matching task was used to present the mono- vs bi-referential contr…
Down Syndrome and Referential Communication: Understanding and Production
2012
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the ability of referential communication in subjects with Down Syndrome (DS). We evaluated the possibility that the referential communication is the result of a set of cognitive factors, verbal and nonverbal through the evaluation of relationship between cognitive abilities in individuals with DS and typically developing. In particular, we have identified some critical dimensions of communicative function, such as the referential communication, which means the subject's ability to produce o the listener or messages “referentially oriented”, ie messages that are characterized by “clarity or ambiguity referential”. The referential communication skills, in…
