'I Like the Metamorphosis of the Characters': Dynamics of Transnational Television Comedy Engagement
This article contributes to debates on transnational television comedy audiences through analysis of Eastern European audiencesâ engagement with British television comedy. Using questionnaire and focus group data it examines the extent and nature of British television comedy engagement by Romanian audiences and the limits of broadcasting British television comedy to Romanian audiences. The research reveals Romanian audiencesâ high involvement with television comedy. Over half of questionnaire respondents watch British television comedy. Three themes regarding Romanian audiencesâ engagement with British television comedy are identified in the focus group data: 1) transnational television comedy aesthetics; 2) transnational television comedy as intellectual comedy; and 3) ethical limits of transnational television comedy. These themes highlight the complex contours of transnational television comedy engagement.https://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/article/view/2941/152
Un model geometric al legaturilor directe dintre fenomenele economice
Abstract. In this paper we approach the issue of the evolution of economic phenomena that influence one another. First of all, we introduce a geometric model to establish whether there is a direct influence between two economic phenomena. After this, we find out the strength of this influence and, finally, we suggest a model for the form of this influence.Key words: economic phenomenon; evolution; development; increase; decrease
Subfactors of index less than 5, part 1: the principal graph odometer
In this series of papers we show that there are exactly ten subfactors, other
than subfactors, of index between 4 and 5. Previously this
classification was known up to index . In the first paper we give
an analogue of Haagerup's initial classification of subfactors of index less
than , showing that any subfactor of index less than 5 must appear
in one of a large list of families. These families will be considered
separately in the three subsequent papers in this series.Comment: 36 pages (updated to reflect that the classification is now complete
A planar calculus for infinite index subfactors
We develop an analog of Jones' planar calculus for II_1-factor bimodules with
arbitrary left and right von Neumann dimension. We generalize to bimodules
Burns' results on rotations and extremality for infinite index subfactors.
These results are obtained without Jones' basic construction and the resulting
Jones projections.Comment: 56 pages, many figure
Temporary Composite Bonding Fixed Bridges
Esthetic composite bonding technique has had a great impact in the area of fixed prosthodontics, following the conservative techiques that are proving mainly successful in the replacing of a single tooth.
In this way single anterior missing tooth are usually replaced. Further developments included efforts to increase the resistance of the bonding materials to cohesive fracture by the use of class III type preparations at the proximal surfaces of abutment teeth. With the current availability of visible - light - cured composite materials, these can be used efficiently to fabricate any of the all - resin bonded protheses.To use a bonded pontic in such applications a number of conditions must be met. First, the patient must understand the limitation of the restorations: lack of strength, and inability to function as a natural tooth. Second, the patient\u27s occlusion must be favorable: positive posterior occlusal support, absence of parafunctional habits and eccentric pattern of movement that permits
the sharing of guidance responsibility by teeth not involved in the units of the bridge, particularly with respect to protrusive and lateral protrusive mandibular movements. The materials and techiques required to prepare and insert an all - resin bonded bridge are described and illustrated in the paper
New Testament Principles Governing the Relationship Between the Christian and Civil Authorities and Their Elaboration in the Writings of Ellen G. White with Their Reflection in the Adventist Church in Romania
No Abstract.
This Doctor of Ministry Project report falls under the category described in the Seminary Bulletin as Project II, a paper completed in fulfillment of requirements for an alternate curriculum plan under which the candidate prepares two related papersâa theological position paper addressing some issue or problem that exists in the Seventh-day Adventist Church in a theological setting and a professional paper addressing this same issue or problem from the standpoint of ministerial practice
Spectral measures of small index principal graphs
The principal graph of a subfactor with finite Jones index is one of the
important algebraic invariants of the subfactor. If is the adjacency
matrix of we consider the equation . When has square
norm the spectral measure of can be averaged by using the map
, and we get a probability measure on the unit circle
which does not depend on . We find explicit formulae for this measure
for the principal graphs of subfactors with index , the
(extended) Coxeter-Dynkin graphs of type , and . The moment
generating function of is closely related to Jones' -series.Comment: 23 page
Semi-regular masas of transfinite length
In 1965 Tauer produced a countably infinite family of semi-regular masas in
the hyperfinite factor, no pair of which are conjugate by an
automorphism. This was achieved by iterating the process of passing to the
algebra generated by the normalisers and, for each , finding
masas for which this procedure terminates at the -th stage. Such masas are
said to have length . In this paper we consider a transfinite version of
this idea, giving rise to a notion of ordinal valued length. We show that all
countable ordinals arise as lengths of semi-regular masas in the hyperfinite
factor. Furthermore, building on work of Jones and Popa, we
obtain all possible combinations of regular inclusions of irreducible
subfactors in the normalising tower.Comment: 14 page
