Overview: The 50-year history of weak interaction since Fermi‘s pro­ posal of this coupling has been marked with striking direct inter­ plays between experimental results and theoretical understanding, e.g. the discoveries of neutrinos, parity violation, and CP vio­ lation. The recent discoveries of the quark hierarchy, the charm and the beauty, and the intermediate vector bosons W± and ZO have truly made a splendid page in the history of particle physics. It is the purpose of this conference to discuss the questions of quark and lepton generations and mixing, their relations to CP violation,

Overview: Frankreich - dieses Land wirkte auf Generationen von Deutschen wider­ sprüchlich. Einerseits der permanente unbequeme Rivale, andererseits das Land der Revolutionen, der Kultur und des "savoir vivre". Der deutsch­ französische Gegensatz konnte nicht größer sein, als er sich in den drei bluti­ gen Kriegen 1870/71, 1914 - 1918 und 1939 - 1940 widerspiegelte. Doch nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, genauer ab 1950, erfolgte eine vollkommene Umkehr des Verhältnisses. Aus den ehemaligen Kriegsgegnern wurden Part­ ner. Die früher kaum für möglich gehaltene Aussöhnung zwischen zwei Völ­ kern vollz

Overview: Function spaces, especially those spaces that have become known as Sobolev spaces, and their natural extensions, are now a central concept in analysis. In particular, they play a decisive role in the modem theory of partial differential equations (PDE). Potential theory, which grew out of the theory of the electrostatic or gravita­ tional potential, the Laplace equation, the Dirichlet problem, etc. , had a fundamen­ tal role in the development of functional analysis and the theory of Hilbert space. Later, potential theory was strongly influenced by functional analysis. More re­ centl

Overview: Frankreichs VergangenheitKann „Nationalgeschichte“ als politische Ressource benutzt werden? Wo liegen heute die Grenzen eines solchen Umgangs mit der Vergangenheit? .Nach dem Vorschlag der französischen Regierung, ein „Haus der Geschichte Frankreichs“ zu gründen, diskutieren führende französische Historiker wie Jacques Revel, Blandine Kriegel oder Nicolas Offenstadt den aktuellen Umgang mit der eigenen Geschichte. Im Austausch mit jüngeren Fachkollegen wird der (politische) Nutzen eines gemeinsamen Vergangenheitsbezugs zwischen der schwierigen Aneignung der Kolonialvergangenheit und

Overview: Mixture models are nowadays applied in many different areas such as biometrics, medicine, marketing whereas switching models are applied essentially in economics and finance.The prominence of finite mixture modelling is greater than ever. Many important statistical topics like clustering data, outlier treatment, or dealing with unobserved heterogeneity involve finite mixture models in some way or other. The area of potential applications goes beyond simple data analysis and extends to regression analysis and to non-linear time series analysis using Markov switching models....For more
