The Arnold Berliner Award (Thatje 2012) was established as part of the 100-year anniversary of Naturwissenschaften and was first awarded in 2013 (Fig. 1, Thatje 2013). With this editorial, it is my great pleasure to announce this year’s recipient of the award, Florian Karolyi from the University of Vienna

Boundary Harnack inequality for Markov processes with jumps

We prove a boundary Harnack inequality for jump-type Markov processes on metric measure state spaces, under comparability estimates of the jump kernel and Urysohn-type property of the domain of the generator of the process. The result holds for positive harmonic functions in arbitrary open sets. It applies, e.g., to many subordinate Brownian motions, L\'evy processes with and without continuous part, stable-like and censored stable processes, jump processes on fractals, and rather general Schr\"odinger, drift and jump perturbations of such processes.Comment: 37 pages, 1 figure, minor editorial changes, paper accepted in Transactions of AM

Editorial: “Grammar wars” – Beyond a truce

Any special issue of a journal is an acknowledgement of a conversation that needs to be had. The conversation in this double issue of English Teaching: Practice and Critique has had a multiplicity of prompts, some of which I will refer to in this introduction, others of which will be referred to by the contributors to this issue (Part 1). In respect of this journal as a forum, the conversation will spill over into Volume 5, Number 1 (May, 2006). This editorial should be thought of as a work in progress; contributions to Part 2 have yet to arrive in my email basket and cannot be referred to here. Some of my own prompts in initiating this conversation have their origins close to home – in my experiences as a teacher, teacher educator and researcher in the New Zealand context. It is a context that has had its own share of social upheaval and educational “reform” in the last twenty years (Locke, 2000, 2001 and 2004). In the larger context of struggles over administrative, curriculum and assessment policy and practice, questions of “grammar” and “language” have not been prominent on the radar screen
