Given any simple Lie superalgebra g, we investigate the structure of an arbitrary simple weight g-module. We introduce two invariants of simple weight modules: the shadow and the small Weyl group. Generalizing results of Fernando and Futorny we show that any simple module is obtained by parabolic induction from a cuspidal module of a Levi subsuper-algebra. Then we classify the cuspidal Levi sub...

In this article, I attempt to address some enduring problems in formulation and practical use of the notion of structure in contemporary social science. I begin by revisiting the question of the fidelity of Anthony Giddens’ appropriation of the idea of structure with respect to Levi-Strauss. This requires a reconsideration of Levi-Strauss’ original conceptualization of “social structure” which ...

The Levi problem is a very old problem in the theory of several complex variables and in its original form was solved long ago. However, over the years various extensions and generalizations of the Levi problem were proposed and investigated. Some of the more general forms of the Levi problem still remain unsolved. In the past few years there has been a lot of activity in this area. The purpose...

O artigo defende a hipótese de que talvez o impacto maior dos testemunhos livros Primo Levi venha seu tom sóbrio, preciso, quase neutro, típico uma descrição orientada pela racionalidade iluminista, Aufklärung, mas, ao mesmo tempo, desprovida do otimismo latente costumava acompanhar tal confiança na razão. Uma linguagem clara, sintaxe clássica, combinam sem problema com situações absurdas e cru...
