On (non-)exponential decay in generalized thermoelasticity with two temperatures
Konstanzer Schriften in Mathematik ; 355We study solutions for the one-dimensional problem of the Green-Lindsay and the Lord-Shulman theories with two temperatures. First, existence and uniqueness of weakly regular solutions are obtained. Second, we prove the exponential stability in the Green-Lindsay model, but the nonexponential
stability for the Lord-Shulman modelPreprin

CoRes as tools for promoting pedagogical content knowledge of novice science teachers
Expert science teachers possess a special blend of science content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge for teaching particular science topics to particular groups of students that is built up over time and experience. This form of professional knowledge, termed pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) by Shulman (1987), is topic-specific, unique to each science teacher, and can only be gained through teaching practice. The academic construct of PCK is a recognition that teaching is not simply the transmission of concepts and skills from teacher to students but, rather, a complex and problematic activity that requires many and varied âon the spotâ decisions and responses to studentsâ ongoing learning needs. Much has been written about the nature of PCK since Shulman first introduced the concept in 1987, and its elusive characteristics have led to much debate
Schur and operator multipliers
Schur multipliers were introduced by Schur in the early 20th century and have
since then found a considerable number of applications in Analysis and enjoyed
an intensive development. Apart from the beauty of the subject in itself,
sources of interest in them were connections with Perturbation Theory, Harmonic
Analysis, the Theory of Operator Integrals and others. Advances in the
quantisation of Schur multipliers were recently made by Kissin and Shulman. The
aim of the present article is to summarise a part of the ideas and results in
the theory of Schur and operator multipliers. We start with the classical Schur
multipliers defined by Schur and their characterisation by Grothendieck, and
make our way through measurable multipliers studied by Peller and Spronk,
operator multipliers defined by Kissin and Shulman and, finally,
multidimensional Schur and operator multipliers developed by Juschenko and the
authors. We point out connections of the area with Harmonic Analysis and the
Theory of Operator Integrals
Dean Harry Shulman
Harry Shulman\u27s death is a grievous blow. He died at fifty-two, just as he was beginning a new phase of his devoted and distinguished service to the Yale Law School, and to the cause of law in the United States. Called to the Deanship from a career of extraordinary accomplishment, and promise, he was Dean long enough to make it clear that he intended to lead the faculty in a major reappraisal of legal education, and a major effort to adapt our program of teaching and research to the needs of the next generation. To this task, he brought remarkable resources. His own work, as teacher and scholar, was uniformly at the highest level of thoughtful excellence. He had been a successful and creative leader in the field of labor relations, and had proved himself in policy making, and the conduct of affairs. Above all, he was a wise, sane, and temperate man. As a human being, he was one of those rare people who invariably attract respect and affection in equal measureâthe special respect reserved for those who are unshakably devoted to principle, and the affection evoked by transparently sincere generosity, sympathy, and good-will. He might have become an outstanding judge, for he had the quality of spirit we prize most in judges. He would surely have been a great Dean
Banks and Banking-Bank\u27s Liability for Breach of Its Duty to Corporate Depositor-\u3cem\u3eMaley v. East Side Bank of Chicago\u3c/em\u3e
The three stockholders of a close corporation contracted to sell all of the corporate stock to Shulman for 17,000 in two notes payable in thirty days. A resolution filed with the defendant depositary bank provided that Paul, the former president, was to act as the interim treasurer for the corporation and was to cosign, with Shulman, all checks drawn on the corporate account until the balance of the purchase price was tendered. Approximately one week after the agreement was made, the bank received an inordinate number of inquiries regarding the credit of the corporation, each inquiry being directed to the single executive officer of the bank. Within thirty days Shulman paid the two outstanding notes, and Paul informed the bank of Shulman\u27s payment and the fact that Paul was no longer interested in the corporation. Shulman then signed a signature card as president and the only party entitled to negotiate corporate checks. In the succeeding three weeks Shulman brought to the bank certified and cashiers checks payable to the corporation and endorsed by him either for cash or for deposit into his personal account. At the end of this period creditors of the corporation filed an involuntary petition in bankruptcy, and the trustee in bankruptcy instituted an action against the bank on the creditors\u27 behalf. The court held that because of the bank\u27s violation of the corporate resolutions which it had on file and the breach of its duty to the corporate depositor, the trustee can recover the value of checks payable to the corporation but cashed by Shulman for his personal use
