this study focused on the role of appropriate equivalence selection of colors in the field of advanced pranic healing (aph), based on mona baker’s equivalence, both at word level and above word level. the partici- pants included 40 bachelor’s students studying in the field of english translation. participants received the colors’ translation test (ctt) included in the book “advanced pranic heal...

the translator of a literary text has to observe the semantic sense of the words, the weight, the cultural setting, and other technical features of the original text to yield an acceptable translation in the tl. the accomplishment however is not that easy, for the translator meets some major impediments in performing the task. a translator who is familiar with different critical approaches, a t...

Contextual equivalences for cryptographic process calculi, like the spi-calculus, can be used to reason about correctness of protocols, but their definition suffers from quantification over all possible contexts. Here, we focus on two such equivalences, namely may-testing and barbed equivalence, and investigate tractable proof methods for them. To this aim, we design an enriched labelled transi...

extended abstract 1. introduction the present study aims to investigate the potentials of two significant translation paradigms in children’s literature: 1) skopos paradigm; and 2) equivalence paradigm. the former seeks equivalence in the source text while the latter seeks it in the target text. to this end, three translations of “the little prince” by mohammad ghazi, ahmad shamlou, and abolhas...

We show that if U∗ is a hypercover of a topological space X then the natural map hocolimU∗ → X is a weak equivalence. This fact is used to construct topological realization functors for the A-homotopy theory of schemes over real and complex fields.

We extend the notion of ascent and descent for an operator acting on a vector space to sets of operators. If the ascent and descent of a set are both finite then they must be equal and give rise to a canonical decomposition of the space. Algebras of operators, unions of sets and closures of sets are treated. As an application we construct a Browder joint spectrum for commuting tuples of bounded...

Given the classification of low dimensional manifolds up to equivalence relations such as diffeomorphism or homeomorphism, one would hope to be able to continue to classify higher dimensional manifolds. Unfortunately, this turns out to be difficult or impossible, and so one solution would be turn to some weaker equivalence relation. One such equivalence relation would be to consider manifolds u...

We consider the space of orderings of the field R((x, y)) and the space of orderings of the field R((x))(y), where R is a real closed field. We examine the structure of these objects and their relationship to each other. We define a cyclic 2-structure to be a pair (S, Φ) where S is a cyclically ordered set and Φ is an equivalence relation on S such that each equivalence class has exactly two el...

1. introduction the issue of translation equivalence has received increasing attention from translation theorists and translators, but it seems that this issue can be investigated at different levels and from different perspectives. reception theory which appeared from the second half of the 20th century as an opposition to new criticism, was to re-define the author-reader-text relation in diff...
