Teodor Llorente i el romanticisme europeu: colonització, modernitat i territori

La figura de Teodoro Llorente y Olivares (1836-1911), periodista, político y poeta, ha sido juzgada a menudo en términos demasiado locales, desconectada de los movimientos literarios y políticos que en Europa lucharon contra la colonización de la modernidad y contra la homogeneización social y territorial que el capitalismo estaba imponiendo en el siglo XIX. Llorente es el representante valenciano equiparable a otros personajes europeos que escribieron contra la destrucción del pasado, del patrimonio y de la memoria, del territorio, de las formas tradicionales de vida y del paisaje. El escritor se inserta totalmente en la literatura europea romántica de base geográfica y es, desde este punto de vista, como se entiende mejor su obra.The figure of Teodor Llorente i Olivares (1836-1911), journalist, politician and poet, has often been judged in excessively local terms, disconnected from the literary and political movements in Europe that were fighting against the colonization of modernity and against the social and human geography homogenization that capitalism imposed in the 19th century. Llorente is the Valencian equivalent of other Europeans who also wrote in protest against the destruction of the past, of heritage and memory, of landscape, of traditional ways of life and land use. The writer fits confortably within European Romantic literature of a geographical nature and it is from this perspective that his work can best be understood

Oscillation of generalized differences of H\"older and Zygmund functions

In this paper we analyze the oscillation of functions having derivatives in the H\"older or Zygmund class in terms of generalized differences and prove that its growth is governed by a version of the classical Kolmogorov's Law of the Iterated Logarithm. A better behavior is obtained for functions in the Lipschitz class via an interesting connection with Calder\'on-Zygmund operators.Comment: 16 page

Anàlisi crítica i contrastiva de la traducció de Teodor Llorente de 'Fausto. Tragedia de Goethe. Primera parte'

L'objectiu global d'aquest TFG és analitzar la metodologia i el resultat final de la traducció d'una de les grans obres de la literatura universal. Aquest objectiu es desglossa en 4 objectius específics: contextualitzar l'obra de Goethe i de Llorente, comparar i analitzar críticament la fidelitat de la traducció al text original (per contingut), comparar la mètrica emprada per Llorente amb la mètrica de l'original alemany i, finalment, fer balanç dels resultats del treball per a obtenir-ne conclusions, tenint en compte el context de la traducció de LlorenteEl objetivo global de este TFG es analizar la metodología y el resultado final de la traducción de una de las grandes obras de la literatura universal. Este objetivo se desglosa en 4 objetivos específicos: contextualizar la obra de Goethe y de Llorente, comparar y analizar críticamente la fidelidad de la traducción al texto original (por contenido), comparar la métrica utilizada por Llorente con la métrica del original alemán y, finalmente, hacer balance de los resultados del trabajo para obtener conclusiones, teniendo en cuenta el contexto de la traducción de LlorenteThe overall objective of this bachelor's thesis is to analyze the methodology and the final outcome of the translation of one of the greatest classics of universal literature. This objective breaks down into four specific objectives: contextualize the work of Goethe and Llorente, compare and critically analyze the accuracy of the translation (regarding the content), compare the metric used by Llorente with the metric of the original in German and finally, take stock of the results to draw conclusions, taking into account the context of Llorente's translatio

An algorithm for computing the centered Hausdorff measure of self-similar sets

We provide an algorithm for computing the centered Hausdorff measure of self-similar sets satisfying the strong separation condition. We prove the convergence of the algorithm and test its utility on some examples

Ethanol reversal of tolerance to the respiratory depressant effects of morphine

Opioids are the most common drugs associated with unintentional drug overdose. Death results from respiratory depression. Prolonged use of opioids results in the development of tolerance but the degree of tolerance is thought to vary between different effects of the drugs. Many opioid addicts regularly consume alcohol (ethanol), and post-mortem analyses of opioid overdose deaths have revealed an inverse correlation between blood morphine and ethanol levels. In the present study, we determined whether ethanol reduced tolerance to the respiratory depressant effects of opioids. Mice were treated with opioids (morphine, methadone, or buprenorphine) for up to 6 days. Respiration was measured in freely moving animals breathing 5% CO(2) in air in plethysmograph chambers. Antinociception (analgesia) was measured as the latency to remove the tail from a thermal stimulus. Opioid tolerance was assessed by measuring the response to a challenge dose of morphine (10 mg/kg i.p.). Tolerance developed to the respiratory depressant effect of morphine but at a slower rate than tolerance to its antinociceptive effect. A low dose of ethanol (0.3 mg/kg) alone did not depress respiration but in prolonged morphine-treated animals respiratory depression was observed when ethanol was co-administered with the morphine challenge. Ethanol did not alter the brain levels of morphine. In contrast, in methadone- or buprenorphine-treated animals no respiratory depression was observed when ethanol was co-administered along with the morphine challenge. As heroin is converted to morphine in man, selective reversal of morphine tolerance by ethanol may be a contributory factor in heroin overdose deaths

Limits on new coloured fermions using precision jet data from the Large Hadron Collider

This work presents an interpretation of high precision jet data from the ATLAS experiment in terms of exclusion limits for new coloured matter. To this end, the effect of a new coloured fermion with a mass $m_X$ on the solution of the renormalization group equation QCD is studied. Theoretical predictions for the transverse energy-energy correlation function and its asymmetry are obtained with such a modified solution and, from the comparison to data, 95\% CL exclusion limits are set on such models.Comment: 16 pages, 8 figures. v3 matches the published versio

Sphericalization and p-harmonic functions on unbounded domains in Ahlfors regular metric spaces

We use sphericalization to study the Dirichlet problem, Perron solutions and boundary regularity for p-harmonic functions on unbounded sets in Ahlfors regular metric spaces. Boundary regularity for the point at infinity is given special attention. In particular, we allow for several "approach directions" towards infinity and take into account the massiveness of their complements. In 2005, Llorente-Manfredi-Wu showed that the p-harmonic measure on the upper half space $R^n_+, n \ge 2$, is not subadditive on null sets when $p \neq 2$. Using their result and spherical inversion, we create similar bounded examples in the unit ball $B \subset R^n$ showing that the n-harmonic measure is not subadditive on null sets when $n \ge 3$, and neither are the p-harmonic measures in $B$ generated by certain weights depending on $p\neq 2$ and $n \ge 2$
