The Luk\'{a}cs--Olkin--Rubin theorem on symmetric cones

In this paper we prove a Luk\'{a}cs type characterization theorem of the Wishart distribution on Euclidean simple Jordan algebras under weak regularity assumptions (e.g. measurability) on the densities.Comment: 11 page

Implementasi Teknik Vokal Luk, Gregel dan Crooning dalam Repertoar Tristeza

Penulisan ini membahas tentang bagaimana implementasi teknik vokal luk, gregel, dan crooning pada repertoar Tristeza dengan iringan combo keroncong. Teknik vokal luk, dan gregel merupakan teknik vokal yang digunakan dalam menyanyikan repertoar keroncong. Luk dapat diartikan sebagai bagian dari cengkok yang memperindah pembawaan lagu. Kemudian gregel merupakan hiasan dari nada yang bergerak dengan cepat. Pada penulisanya gregel dapat ditulis dengan tanda inverted mordent. Teknik vokal crooning merupakan teknik bernyanyi ringan seperti berbicara. Tristeza merupakan repertoar musik latin. Musik keroncong dan musik latin merupakan musik yang berasal dari akar yang sama. Musik latin memiliki ciri pada permainan ritmik yang kerap dipegang oleh instrumen perkusi, 2 sedangkan ciri khas musik keroncong terletak pada instrumen cak, dan cuk. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan penerapan metode studi dokumen, wawancara dan diskografi. Hasil yang diperoleh berupa sajian musik dengan repertoar Tristeza yang telah diaransemen dibawakan dengan iringan combo keroncong, dan implementasi teknik vokal luk, gregel, dan crooning. Dengan demikian menghasilkan nuansa musik yang baru.AbstractImplementation of Luk, Gregel, and Crooning Vocal Techniques in the Tristeza Repertoire. This writing discusses how the implementation of luk, gregel, and crooning vocal techniques in the Tristeza repertoire with keroncong combo accompaniment. Luk, and gregel vocal techniques are vocal techniques used in singing keroncong repertoire. Luk can be interpreted as part of the cengkok that beautifies the rendition of the song. Then gregel is a decoration of a tone that moves quickly. In writing gregel can be written with an inverted mordent sign. Crooning vocal technique is a light singing technique like talking.

The Null Condition and Global Existence for Nonlinear Wave Equations on Slowly Rotating Kerr Spacetimes

We study a semilinear equation with derivatives satisfying a null condition on slowly rotating Kerr spacetimes. We prove that given sufficiently small initial data, the solution exists globally in time and decays with a quantitative rate to the trivial solution. The proof uses the robust vector field method. It makes use of the decay properties of the linear wave equation on Kerr spacetime, in particular the improved decay rates in the region $\{r\leq \frac{t}{4}\}$

Removing the Digital Divide for Senior Web Users

It is hard for the elderly to use the internet to find the resource they want. Usually help is needed for them to complete the task on the technology things. The main reason for this project is to research ideas on encourage senior people to make use of the web to locate helps they want, such as finding volunteers and professional helps. The scope of this project is to develop a new way of web access and content presentation methodologies that let senior people getting help from volunteers and various service providers more easily that incorporates social networking technology e.g. Facebook. By incorporating the social network web site like Facebook into the web application, senior people will be able to find volunteering help or other related service providers through social networking. Volunteers will show up in Google map in search results for senior to easily locate helps. Senior people can also search for self help videos tutorials through the web application search engine. A mobile version of the senior user application will also be developed for easy access on the road. Other features that benefit senior users includes voice input, control / content posting and collaborative social networking where a sponsors would sponsor a help task volunteer undertake

Strukturelle und kriteriale Validität der literarästhetischen Urteilskompetenz. Projekt literarästhetische Urteilskompetenz

Die kompetenztheoretische Modellierung und empirische Validierung literarästhetischer Lehr-Lern-Prozesse gehört zu den schwierigsten und dringlichsten Aufgaben sprachbezogener Bildungsforschung. Die Schwierigkeit erklärt sich aus der besonderen Beschaffenheit des zu erfassenden Gegenstandes. Denn künstlerische Texte sind prinzipiell durch Polyvalenz bzw. Mehrdeutigkeit gekennzeichnet. … Die Dringlichkeit ergibt sich zum einen daraus, dass es einer theoretisch anschlussfähigen und empirisch tragfähigen Modellierung literarästhetischer Kompetenz bedarf, um Bildungsstandards, Lernstandserhebungen und die kompetenzorientierte Erforschung von Lehr-Lernprozessen im Hinblick auf literarästhetisches Verstehen auf ein wissenschaftlich solides Fundament zu stellen. … In diesem Beitrag wurde der Frage nachgegangen, ob sich ein dreidimensionales Modell der literarästhetischen Urteilskompetenz (LUK), für das literaturtheoretisch gute Grunde sprechen, empirisch bestätigen lasst oder ob sich ein theoretisch ebenfalls plausibles zweidimensionales LUK-Modell angesichts der ermittelten Daten als Überlegen erweist. Weiterhin wurde der Versuch unternommen, LUK gegen allgemeine Lesekompetenz abzugrenzen. (DIPF/Orig.
