Algebraic singularities have maximal reductive automorphism groups
1989
LetX = On/ibe an analytic singularity where ṫ is an ideal of theC-algebraOnof germs of analytic functions on (Cn, 0). Letdenote the maximal ideal ofXandA= AutXits group of automorphisms. An abstract subgroupequipped with the structure of an algebraic group is calledalgebraic subgroupofAif the natural representations ofGon all “higher cotangent spaces”are rational. Letπbe the representation ofAon the first cotangent spaceandA1=π(A).
Net currents obtained from zero-average potentials in single amphoteric nanopores
2013
We have studied experimentally and theoretically the rectifying properties of a single asymmetric nanopore functionalized with amphoteric lysine groups and characterized the net current obtained with zero-average time dependent potentials. The pH-controlled rectification phenomena may be relevant to bio-electrochemistry, pH sensing and regulation, and energy conversion. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Location-Awareness for Failure Management in Cellular Networks: An Integrated Approach
2021
Recent years have seen the proliferation of different techniques for outdoor and, especially, indoor positioning. Still being a field in development, localization is expected to be fully pervasive in the next few years. Although the development of such techniques is driven by the commercialization of location-based services (e.g., navigation), its application to support cellular management is considered to be a key approach for improving its resilience and performance. When different approaches have been defined for integrating location information into the failure management activities, they commonly ignore the increase in the dimensionality of the data as well as their integration into th…
Skolēnu lasītprasmes motivācija pamatizglītības sākumposmā
2017
Pētījuma objekts ir skolēnu lasītprasmes motivācija pamatizglītības sākumposmā. Pētījuma mērķis ir, balstoties uz zinātniskās literatūras, un empīrisko datu analīzi noteikt skolēnu lasītprasmes motivācijas veicināšos faktorus pamatizglītības sākumposmā, lai noteiktu skolēnu motivējošos faktorus lasīšanā un lasītprasmes pilnveidē. Tika apzināti motivācijas faktori, kurus iespējams izmantot, lai veicnātu motivāciju lasīt pamatizglītības sākumposmā, un izstrādātas atbilstošas izglītības vadības rekomendācijas izglītības jomas politiķiem, izglītības iestādes vadītājiem, skolotājiem un skolēnu vecākiem. Izglītības iestādes vadītājiem un skolotājiem, pārzinot skolēnu mācību motivācijas faktorus, …
Signed, Sealed, and Delivered with Trust: Non-Resident Citizens’ Experiences of Newly Adopted Postal Voting
2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has made it clear that the traditional “booth, ballot, and pen” model of voting, based on a specific location and physical presence, may not be feasible during a health crisis. This situation has highlighted the need to assess whether existing national electoral legislation includes enough instruments to ensure citizens’ safety during voting procedures, even under the conditions of a global pandemic. Such instruments, often grouped under the umbrella of voter facilitation or convenience voting, range from voting in advance and various forms of absentee voting (postal, online, and proxy voting) to assisted voting and voting at home and in hospitals and other healthcare …

The Effect of Smartphone-Based Cognitive Training on the Functional/Cognitive Markers of Schizophrenia: A One-Year Randomized Study
2020
Background: Cognitive impairment is associated with long-term disability that results in the deterioration of both the social and professional status of individuals with schizophrenia. The impact of antipsychotic therapy on cognitive function is insufficient. Cognitive training is therefore proposed as a tool for cognitive rehabilitation in schizophrenia. In this study we investigated the effect of self-administered cognitive training using a smartphone-based application on the cognitive function of paranoid schizophrenia patients focusing on response time, correct answer rate, incorrect answer rate, and fatigability to check, if these functions can be functional markers of successful cogni…
Pareidolijas uztvere saskarņu lietojumā
2022
Maģistra darba mērķis ir izpētīt pareidolijas uztveri, kā arī izstrādāt eksperimentālu aptauju, izmantojot dažāda tipa attēlus: ar pareidoliju, bez pareidolijas un ar parastām sejām. Respondenti tika sadalīti trijās grupās ar dažādiem projekcijas laikiem: 0.25 sekundes uz attēlu, 0.5 sekundes uz attēlu un 1 sekunde uz attēlu, lai novērtētu reakcijas ātrumu. Datu analīzes gaitā ir noteiktas atšķirības starp respondentu grupām. Iegūtie rezultāti parādīja, ka izmaiņu tendences nosaka respondentu vecums, dzimums un vaļasprieki. Papildus eksperimentā tika pētīta iespēja identificēt un novērtēt emocijas pareidolijas sejās. Pamatojoties uz aptaujas datiem, darba noslēdzošajā daļā tika izstrādāts A…
Šizotipiskas personības iezīmju saistība ar seju un emociju atpazīšanu pareidolisku paternu veidā
2019
Bakalaura darba mērķis bija noskaidrot, vai pastāv pozitīva saistība starp šizotipiskas personības pozitīvā faktora simptomiem un seju un emociju atpazīšanu pareidolisku paternu veidā. Tāpat arī pētījumā tika izvirzīts papildjautājums, vai izteiktāki šizotipijas negatīvie simptomi norādīs uz grūtībām seju un emociju atpazīšanā pareidolisku paternu veidā? Bakalaura darba pētījumā piedalījās 200 respondenti – 133 sievietes, 67 vīrieši, vecumā no 18-60 gadiem (M = 28,43 gadi, SD = 9,15), veidojot divas izlases, kuras Šizotipiskas Personības Aptauju (SPQ, Raine, 1991) un autora izveidotu vizuālās uztveres uzdevumu veica internetā un klātienē. Pētījuma hipotēze tika daļēji apstiprināta, trim no …
Children’s Fruit and Vegetable Preferences Are Associated with Their Mothers’ and Fathers’ Preferences
2021
Children’s preference for fruit and vegetables must emerge during childhood. At children’s homes, mothers and fathers influence children’s developing food preferences with their own preferences and actions. The purpose of the study was to reveal the association parents have with their children’s fruit and vegetable preferences. The study was conducted in a sample of Finnish mothers and fathers of 3–5-year-old children. The participants were recruited, and questionnaires distributed through early childhood education and care centers in 2014 and 2015. The results showed considerable variance in the children’s preferences, and were more similar with their father’s, than their mother’s preferen…
