Exploiting continuity properties of Fourier multipliers on modulation spaces and Wiener amalgam spaces, we study the Cauchy problem for the NLW equation. Local wellposedness for rough data in modulation spaces and Wiener amalgam spaces is shown. The results formulated in the framework of modulation spaces refine those in [3]. The same arguments may apply to obtain local wellposedness for the NL...

Although the term psychoanalytic process is frequently used, there is no consensual definition of its meaning. Some authors use it to designate a recognizable set of experiences within psychoanalysis. Others, a majority, use it as a synonym for the entire psychoanalytic experience, describing in detail what analysts do to achieve their goals. A range of views may be found between these extremes...

Navajo and Quechua, both languages with a highly complex morphology, provide intriguing insights into the acquisition of inflectional systems. The development of the verb in the two languages is especially interesting, since the morphology encodes diverse grammatical notions, with the complex verb often constituting the entire sentence. While the verb complex in Navajo is stem-final, with prefi...

This study offers an extensive statistical analysis of the manifestations of acquired syphilis in the Chinese, White, and Negro races in regard to the distribution of the major stages, the incidence of neural and extra-neural phenomena, and the specific localizations in the various stages. The populations investigated (Chinese at Peiping Union Medical College, and White and Negro at Tohns Hopki...

A procedure is presented for the in vitro growth of Streptococcus mutans in a dextrose-beef extract medium. Growth was estimated spectrophotometrically. The amount of amalgam, alloy, or mercury that was added to the sealed test tube influenced the rate and extent of growth.

The electrochemical behavior and application of a new sensor, a silver solid amalgam paste electrode (AgSA-PE), based on the mixture of a fine silver solid amalgam powder (60:40 (w(Hg)/w(Ag))) and a suitable organic pasting liquid (Paraffin oil) in a ratio of 20:1 (w/w), was investigated in an aqueous-methanolic media (1:1). This alternative working electrode provides simple preparation and han...

A lemma of Tits establishes a connection between the simple connectivity of an incidence geometry and the universal completion of an amalgam induced by a sufficiently transitive group of automorphisms of that geometry. In the present paper, we generalize this lemma to intransitive geometries, thus opening the door for numerous applications. We treat ourselves some amalgams related to intransiti...

In this thesis we primarily consider saturated fusion systems which are of essential rank 1, i.e. which contain only one conjugacy class of essential subgroups. We prove that they all can be realized by an amalgam of two finite groups. This leads us to the application of amalgam related methods like pushing up techniques and results about FF-modules. As a first key result, in fusion systems of ...
