Deformation of vector bundles with holomorphic connections : An adventure in algebraic deformation

There is a connection between representations of the fundamental group π_1(X) of a compact Riemann surface X, and holomorphic vector bundles on X. More specifically, for every representation ρ, there exists an associated holomorphic vector bundle V_ρ. The relation was explored in 1938 by André Weil and later M. S. Narasimhan and C. S. Seshadri in 1965. In particular, any vector bundle that comes from a representation has a holomorphic connection, and any bundle with such a connection comes from a representation. An interesting problem is describing the interactions between this relation and deformation theory: How do the vector bundles associated to deformations of ρ relate to deformations of the associated bundle V_ρ? Providing a complete answer to this question is difficult, but we can give a complete description of the deformations of holomorphic vector bundles with holomorphic connections. We first give an introduction to vector bundles in general, and then develop and introduce tools of deformation theory and homological algebra. The decription of deformation of vector bundles with holomorphic connections is given in terms of the total cohomology of a double complex, which we describe

Between holding institutions and repatriation: An idea analysis of guidelines related to human remains in the Schreiner collection and Karanga Aotearoa Repatriation Programme

This master thesis is an investigation into underlying ethical guidelines for the handling of human remains in institutional settings. The topic is examined by analysing guidelines related to the repository the Schreiner Collection (DSS) and the Aotearoa New Zealander research organ Karanga Aotearoa Repatriation Programme (KARP). The research question is: How do ideas regarding human remains correlate between repatriation guidelines and holding institution guidelines, and what are the underlying ideas of repatriation in the context of KARP and DSS? Through this investigation, the main objective is to facilitate a dialogue between institutions involved in repatriation processes. The analysis is performed through a theoretical and methodological perspective in social constructivism and idea analysis. By identifying ideas, common interests and potential areas of disagreement, this thesis aims to serve as a valuable tool in mapping and resolving such processes and related questions. The thesis finds that DSS and KARP, through documents and policies, have common interests in administrative responsibility and reconciliation. These points surface in ideas about ownership, ethnic belonging, cultural heritage, and knowledge diversity

Driftskontroll av kalkdoseringsanlegg i Mandalsvassdraget. Avviksrapport 2010

Driftskontroll av kalkdoseringsanleggene i Mandalsvassdraget gjennomføres for å avdekke effektiviteten til de enkelte anleggene i vassdraget. Avviksrapporten er en sammenfatning av hendelser i rapporteringsperioden. Den foreslår også tiltak for optimalisering av rutiner, installasjoner og kalkingsstrategi. Smeland doseringsanlegg hadde dårligere driftssikkerhet enn normalt. Det etterlyses klare retningslinjer for doseringsregimet ved anlegget. Håverstad-anlegget doserte meget tilfredsstillende. Doseringsbidraget fra Smeland kan være tilstrekkelig for å avhjelpe midlertidig forsuring ved ekstreme vannføringer i vassdraget. Bjelland-anlegget doserte tilfredsstillende for lakseførende strekning i elva til tross for langvarig defekt i radiooverføringene av pH-data. Vannføringsmåleren bør flyttes slik at maksimal vannføring kan registreres. Kartlegging av pH-effektene ved stasjonen nedstrøms anlegget bør gjennomføres. Logåna-anlegget hadde dårligere driftssikkerhet enn normalt. Mange signalfeil oppsto på anlegget. Anlegget var for lang tid stengt av. Tiltak må gjennomføres for å sikre bedre kontinuerlig driftsvakt

"…You are not particularly helpful as a helper when you are helpless” A qualitative study of Public Health Nurses and their professional competence related to suicidal adolescents

The aim of this study was to develop knowledge about the significance of the Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training workshop (equal to "Vivat – Førstehjelp ved selvmordsfare”) to Public Health Nurses’ practice with suicidal adolescents. Data was gathered through three focus groups, which were interviewed twice. The empirical material was processed using qualitatively content analysis. The main findings and interpretations were that the Public Health Nurses reports that the workshop has increased their professional mastery, their proficiency in actions and their dialogue competency. This has expanded their professional repertoire and probably improved the quality of their care

KAJIAN TINGKAT KESADARAN HUKUM MASYARAKAT TENTANG PENGELOLAAN SAMPAH UNTUK MENJADI WARGA NEGARA YANG BAIK

Masyarakat adalah komponen penting keberadaan sebuah Negara. Masyarakat mencerminkan keberadaan sebuah Negara, artinya sebuah Negara dapat dilihat dari kepribadian dari masyarakatnya. Masyarakat adalah sebuah kesatuan yang saling berhubungan untuk mencapai tujuan tertentu. Indonesia sebagai Negara padat penduduk memiliki masalah yang cukup serius dalam hal kebersihan lingkungan. Hubungan timbal balik manusia dan lingkungannya akan sangat berpengaruh ketika manusia tidak menjaga lingkungannya, lingkungan tidak akan memberikan kenyamanan kepada manusia, bahkan tidak akan memberikan kehidupan yang baik bagi manusia. Banyaknya sampah yang dihasilkan setiap harinya tidak didukung oleh TPA (Tempat Pembuangan Akhir) yang memadai, dapat kembali menimbulkan masalah. Seperti yang pernah terjadi di Kabupaten Bandung Barat beberapa waktu lalu, terjadinya longsor yang menyebabkan rusaknya beberapa pemukiman masyarakat sekitarnya. Selain itu sampah-sampah yang dihasilkan dari aktifitas masyarakat di pasar setiap harinya cukup menyumbangkan beban sampah yang cukup tinggi. Penelitian ini membahas beberapa rumusan masalah yaitu: (1) Bagaimana pengetahuan masyarakat di Desa Karangsong Kabupaten Indramayu tentang pengelolaan sampah? (2) Bagaimana tingkat kesadaran hukum masyarakat di Desa karangsong Kabupaten Indramayu dalam proses pengelolaan sampah?; (3) Bagaimana efektifitas sarana dan prasarana yang menunjang dalam proses pengelolaan sampah yang terdapat di Desa Karangsong Kabupaten Indramayu?. Metode dalam penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode studi Deskriptif dengan bentuk penelitian random sampling. Data yang diperoleh melalui angket, observasi studi dokumentasi, studi literature, dan wawancara sebagai data pendukung. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa; (1) Pengetahuan masyarakat Desa Karangsong tentang pengelolaan sampah di Kabupaten Indramayu masih belum mengetahui pengelolaan sampah yang baik. (2) Tingkat kesadaran hukum masyarakat di Desa Karangsong tentang pengelolaan sampah masih dalam tingkat Heteronomous. (3) Efektifitas sarana dan prasarana yang menunjang masih belum efektif, ini dikarenakan kurangnya sarana dan prasarana yang aktif dan dapat terpakai dengan layak. Berdasarkan pembahasan penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa tingkat kesadaran hukum masyarakat Desa Karangsong Kabupaten Indramayu tentang pengelolaan sampah masih rendah. Olehkarenaitu,untukmengatasihaltersebutperluadanyakerjasama yang baik antarapemerintahdesadengandinasuntuklebihmeningkatkankesadaranwargadesadenganberbagai program yang mengarahkepadapengelolaansampahdanpengelolaannya. Kata Kunci: Tingkat Kesadaran Hukum, Pengelolaan sampah, Warga Negara Yang Baik The community is an important component of the existence of a State. The community reflects the existence of a State, meaning that a country can be seen from the personality of the people. The community is an interconnected unity to achieve a particular goal. Indonesia as the populous country has a pretty serious problem in terms of the cleanliness of the environment. The reciprocal relationship between humans and their environment will be particularly influential when people do not keep their surroundings, the environment will not give comfort to humans, wouldn’t even provide a good life for human beings. The number of garbage produced each day is not supported by an adequate landfill site, can cause problems again. As have occurred in West Bandung regency some time ago, the occurrence of landslides which caused the destruction of some residential community around it. In addition, the garbage resulting from the activities of the community in the market every day has donated a load of garbage that is high enough. This research discusses three formulation problems: (1) How does the community’s knowledge in Indramayu Regency, Karangsong Village on waste management?; (2) How does the community’s level of the legal awareness in Indramayu Regency, Karangsong Village on the waste management process?; (3) How the effectiveness of the supported facilities and infrastructure in the waste management process contained in Indramayu Regency, Karangsong Village?. The methods in this study using a quantitative approach to the study of descriptive research methods in the form of random sampling. Data acquired through questionnaires, observational study documentation, literature studies, and interview as supporting data. The results showed that (1) The community’s knowledge in Karangsong Village on waste management in Indramayu Regency still hasn’t learned good waste management; (2) The community’s level of the legal awareness in Karangsong Village on waste management process is still in Heteronomous level; (3) The effectiveness of the supported facilities and infrastructure is still not efective due to the lack of facilities and infrastructure are active and can be used with feasible. Based on the deliberations of the research, it can be concluded that the level of community’s legal awareness in Indramayu Regency, Karangsong Village on waste management is still low. Therefore, to address the need for good cooperation with the Government of the village with the Department to further enhance the awareness of the villagers with a variety of programs leading to waste management and its management.
