Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Konrad Schöbel aims to lay the foundations for a consequent algebraic geometric treatment of variable Separation, which is one of the oldest and most powerful methods to construct exact solutions for the fundamental equations in classical and quantum physics. The present work reveals a surprising algebraic geometric structure behind the famous list of separation coordinates, bringing together a great range of mathematics and mathematical physics, from the late 19th century theory of separation of variables to modern moduli space theory, Stasheff poly

Overview: The 1989 Cryogenic Engineering Conference, meeting jointly with the International Cryogenic Materials Conference, was held on the campus of the University of California, Los Angeles from July 24 to 28. Professor T.H.K. Frederking was the conference chairman. The Conference had previously met at U.C.L.A. in 1962 and 1969. A special symposium, "A Half Century of Superfluid Helium," was a significant part of the program of CEC-89. We were especially fortunate to have Professor Jack Allen of the University of St. Andrews, Scotland present at the Conference; his paper, "Early Superfluidit

Overview: The Automated Technology for Veri?cation and Analysis (ATVA) international symposium series was initiated in 2003, responding to a growing interest in formal veri?cation spurred by the booming IT industry, particularly hardware design and manufacturing in East Asia. Its purpose is to promote research on automated veri?cation and analysis in the region by providing a forum for int- action between the regional and the international research/industrial commu- ties of the ?eld. ATVA 2006, the fourth of the ATVA series, was held in Beijing, China, October 23-26, 2006. The main topics of t

Overview: to his suggestions for corrective action at government level, will naturally vary according to the interests of each government in upholding the ap­ proach it regards as consistent with its own basic interests and those of its international airline. I commend this book as a most valuable treatment of the subjects which are of concern not only to the academic student but also to those engaged in the study and application of international civil aviation agreements in governments and airlines. It would be fitting if it enjoys, as it should, wide circulation amongst such students and pra

Overview: The first scholarly volume in the field of aesthetics to present an embodied approach to human experience.Presents a wide range sub-disciplines within aesthetics.Highlights new research questions with.The project of naturalizing human consciousness/experience has made great technical strides (e.g., in mapping areas of brain activity), but has been hampered in many cases by its uncritical reliance on a dualistic “Cartesian” paradigm (though as some of the authors in the collection point out, assumptions drawn from Plato and from Kant also play a role). The present volume proposes a ve

Overview: Wie Mittelständler trotz Zeitknappheit strategisch erfolgreich handelnKleine und mittelständische Unternehmer müssen sich auf das operative Geschäft konzentrieren und haben wenig Zeit für Visionen. Als erfahrener Unternehmensberater und Managementtrainer stößt Norbert Hans in diese Lücke und präsentiert Werkzeuge der Strategiefindung und -umsetzung auf solidem methodischen Fundament..Ein "Advocatus Diaboli", der die Methoden immer wieder "gegenliest", und Martin Meister als fiktiver Inhaber eines Fleischerfachgeschäftes, der nach der "richtigen" Strategie zu mehr Wettbewerbsvorteilen

Overview: Die Grundlagen der allgemeinen oder theoretischen Sinnesphysiologie be­ finden sich gegenwärtig in einem entscheidenden Umbruch. Hatte man bislang, gemäß der Denkweise eines traditionellen Naturalismus, das theoretische Funda­ ment der allgemeinen Sinnesphysiologie in den objektiven Wissenschaften ge­ sucht, so beginnt die Sinnestheorie sich heute aus dieser Abhängigkeit zu befreien und eigenständige methodische Ansätze zu entwickeln .. Die vorliegende Darstellung soll ein Beitrag zu dieser neuen Richtung sein. Was uns die Sinne zeigen, ist originär und nicht aus anderen Gegebenheite

Overview: Global climate change is one of the most important environmental issues facing the world today. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (FCCC) acknowledges the potential for global climate change to have major effects on the world economy. The work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Cli­ mate Change (lPCC) is focused on evaluating the scientific data on climate change and analyzing the potential responses to it. One of the primary issues in the global climate change debate is how to adapt to any change that might occur. The process ofidentifying adaptation measures a

Overview: Ruland/Rürup als HerausgeberDie wirtschaftliche Absicherung des Alters wird als Teil der Lebensplanung immer wichtiger. Ziel ist, nach Möglichkeit den Lebensstandard, den man im Erwerbsleben innegehabt hat, in etwa auch im Ruhestand aufrecht zu erhalten. Da die meisten Anschaffungen getätigt sind und - rufsbedingte Kosten nicht mehr anfallen, wird es als erstrebenswert angesehen, in der Phase des Ruhestands über etwa 75 Prozent des Erwerbseinkommens verfügen zu können. In diesem Fall werden – als Folge der Zunahme der Lebenserwartung – etwa 30 Prozent des Lebenseinkommens nach dem Au
