Familiares de Pessoas Com Sofrimento Psíquico e Profissionais de Saúde Mental: Encontros e Desencontros
As diretrizes assistenciais em saúde mental, no Brasil, prevêem o apoio à família da pessoa com sofrimento psíquico. No entanto, esses familiares referem despreparo em lidar com os encargos cotidianos da convivência com seus entes e desamparo em relação à assistência que recebem dos serviços de saúde mental. Os profissionais de saúde mental, por sua vez, enfrentam dificuldades na inclusão da família nos projetos terapêuticos e na assistência da pessoa com transtorno mental. Diante de tais fragilidades nessa relação, a proposta deste estudo foi conhecer a relação que se estabelece entre esses atores e buscar reflexão sobre fatores que interferem na possibilidade de um bom encontro entre eles. Nesse sentido, foram percorridos temas que se configuram como centrais para o conhecimento das dimensões dessa relação, como o modo de subjetivação desses sujeitos e a ética na filosofia de Espinosa. A perspectiva qualitativa de investigação configurou-se como método para alcançar os objetivos propostos. Foram realizadas entrevistas com profissionais de saúde mental de dois centros de atenção psicossocial do município de Vitória ES e com familiares de usuários destas instituições. Após análise temática do conteúdo dessas entrevistas, foram indicados e discutidos fatores de impasses a serem enfrentados nessa relação, tais como: lógica manicomial presente na relação que cada um desses sujeitos estabelecem com a loucura; dificuldade do profissional na relação com a alteridade do familiar, com prática pautada na polarização do saber, na sua moral e na retificação da dinâmica familiar; disparidade entre oferta e demanda, sem conhecimento das necessidades desses sujeitos. Familiares e profissionais não acreditam em possibilidades desse encontro e distanciam-se com suas potências de ação diminuídas. Apoiando-se na filosofia espinosana,é discutida as causas das inconveniências dessa relação e proposta a ética como possibilidade de aproximação de paixões alegres e potencia de agir dessas pessoas.

Canonical Analysis of the Jackiw-Teitelboim Model in the Temporal Gauge. I. The Classical Theory
As a preparation for its quantization in the loop formalism, the
2-dimensional gravitation model of Jackiw and Teitelboim is analysed in the
classical canonical formalism. The dynamics is of pure constraints as it is
well-known. A partial gauge fixing of the temporal type being performed, the
resulting second class constraints are sorted out and the corresponding Dirac
bracket algebra is worked out. Dirac observables of this classical theory are
then calculated.Comment: 15 pages, Latex. Misprint correction
Complete loop quantization of a dimension 1+2 Lorentzian gravity theory
De Sitter Chern-Simons gravity in D = 1 + 2 spacetime is known to possess an
extension with a Barbero-Immirzi like parameter. We find a partial gauge fixing
which leaves a compact residual gauge group, namely SU(2). The compacticity of
the residual gauge group opens the way to the usual LQG quantization
techniques. We recall the exemple of the LQG quantization of SU(2) CS theory
with cylindrical space topology, which thus provides a complete LQG of a
Lorentzian gravity model in 3-dimensional space-time.Comment: Loops11 - Madrid - 2011 (4 pages, Latex
Symmetries and observables in topological gravity
After a brief review of topological gravity, we present a superspace approach
to this theory. This formulation allows us to recover in a natural manner
various known results and to gain some insight into the precise relationship
between different approaches to topological gravity. Though the main focus of
our work is on the vielbein formalism, we also discuss the metric approach and
its relationship with the former formalism.Comment: 34 pages; a few explanations added in subsection 2.2.1, published

Amplificación cruzada de microsatélites en el género Centaurea (Compositae).
11p. Fotog. en color. Tablas.[EN] Microsatellites are widely used for population
genetic studies although the development of these species-specific markers is costly and time-consuming. One strategy for
saving time and money is the use of markers developed for one species (source species) in a different species (target species).
This is known as cross-amplification. In the present work, two sets of microsatellites are used to test their transferability to six
narrow endemic Centaurea species: i) 16 nuclear loci previously published for three congeneric species and ii) 10 universal
chloroplast markers designed from Nicotiana tabacum sequences. Seventeen of the 26 markers tested were transferable and
14 of them were also polymorphic and therefore useful for future works. Nuclear markers were more variable and thus more
informative than chloroplast markers. Interspecific amplification performed better for the nuclear loci developed for different
Centaurea species than for the universal chloroplast markers developed for Nicotiana tabacum. Likewise, transferability was
more successful for the species from sect. Phalolepis than for sect. Lepteranthus. Therefore, our results support the idea that
the success of the cross-amplification is influenced by the evolutionary distance between the target and the source species.[ES] Los microsatélites se usan habitualmente
en estudios de genética de poblaciones aunque su desarrollo es un proceso caro y largo dada su elevada especificidad. Una
estrategia que permite ahorrar tiempo y dinero es la llamada amplificación cruzada que consiste en amplificar el DNA de
una especie determinada (especie objetivo) usando marcadores que han sido diseñados para una especie diferente (especie
fuente). En este trabajo se ha realizado un ensayo sobre amplificación cruzada usando seis endemismos del género Centaurea
y dos conjuntos de microsatélites: i) 16 marcadores nucleares desarrollados para tres especies congenéricas y ii) 10 marcadores
cloroplásticos universales diseñados para Nicotiana tabacum. Diecisiete de los 26 marcadores evaluados resultaron
transferibles, de los cuales 14 fueron polimórficos siendo así útiles para futuros trabajos. Las regiones nucleares se mostraron
más variables y por lo tanto más informativas que las cloroplásticas. La amplificación cruzada funcionó mejor para los
marcadores nucleares específicos de Centaurea que para los cloroplásticos universales específicos de Nicotiana tabacum.
A su vez, se obtuvo mejor resultado para las especies de la sección Phalolepis que para las de la sección Lepteranthus. En
consecuencia, nuestros resultados apoyan la idea de que el éxito de la amplificación cruzada está estrechamente ligado a la
distancia evolutiva entre especie fuente y especie objetivo.Financial support from the Spanish MICINN (Project

Quantization of Lorentzian 3d Gravity by Partial Gauge Fixing
D = 2+1 gravity with a cosmological constant has been shown by Bonzom and
Livine to present a Barbero-Immirzi like ambiguity depending on a parameter. We
make use of this fact to show that, for positive cosmological constant, the
Lorentzian theory can be partially gauge fixed and reduced to an SU(2)
Chern-Simons theory. We then review the already known quantization of the
latter in the framework of Loop Quantization for the case of space being
topogically a cylinder. We finally construct, in the same setting, a quantum
observable which, although non-trivial at the quantum level, corresponds to a
null classical quantity.Comment: Notation defect fixed on pages 5 (bottom) and 6 (around Eqs. 3.1)--

The Hilbert space of Chern-Simons theory on the cylinder. A Loop Quantum Gravity approach
As a laboratory for loop quantum gravity, we consider the canonical
quantization of the three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory on a noncompact space
with the topology of a cylinder. Working within the loop quantization
formalism, we define at the quantum level the constraints appearing in the
canonical approach and completely solve them, thus constructing a gauge and
diffeomorphism invariant physical Hilbert space for the theory. This space
turns out to be infinite dimensional, but separable.Comment: Minor changes and some references added. Latex, 16 pages, 1 figur
An evolutionary gap in primate default mode network organization
The human default mode network (DMN) is engaged at rest and in cognitive states such as self-directed thoughts. Interconnected homologous cortical areas in primates constitute a network considered as the equivalent. Here, based on a cross-species comparison of the DMN between humans and non-hominoid primates (macaques, marmosets, and mouse lemurs), we report major dissimilarities in connectivity profiles. Most importantly, the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of non-hominoid primates is poorly engaged with the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), though strong correlated activity between the human PCC and the mPFC is a key feature of the human DMN. Instead, a fronto-temporal resting-state network involving the mPFC was detected consistently across non-hominoid primate species. These common functional features shared between non-hominoid primates but not with humans suggest a substantial gap in the organization of the primate\u27s DMN and its associated cognitive functions
Symmetries of topological field theories in the BV-framework
Topological field theories of Schwarz-type generally admit symmetries whose
algebra does not close off-shell, e.g. the basic symmetries of BF models or
vector supersymmetry of the gauge-fixed action for Chern-Simons theory (this
symmetry being at the origin of the perturbative finiteness of the theory). We
present a detailed discussion of all these symmetries within the algebraic
approach to the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. Moreover, we discuss the general
algebraic construction of topological models of both Schwarz- and Witten-type.Comment: 30 page
Anointed or appointed? Father–daughter succession within the family business
With the focus on events and outcomes shaping most of the existing family business research
on intra-family succession, the subtleties of the incumbent-successor relationship and the
dynamic nature of succession as a process of becoming is somewhat neglected. In particular,
we have limited understanding of how successor identities are constructed as legitimate
between incumbent and successor during father-daughter succession. This article addresses this
gap in understanding by exploring how the daughter successor engages in identity work with
the father incumbent during the process of succession and the role of father-daughter gendered
relations in shaping her successor identity. Using a two-stage research design strategy, we draw
upon empirical evidence derived from 14 individual and joint semi-structured interviews to
present a narrative analysis of five father-daughter dyads. In so doing, we unveil how the
daughter’s successor identity was co-constructed as legitimate and how father-daughter
gendered relations influenced this process. Although daughters rely on certain father-daughter
relations (preparation, endorsement and osmotic credibility) for legitimacy, they also need to
develop independently from their father in order to heighten their own visibility and establish
credibility
