We evaluate from perspective Brazilian mentioned contrapuntal to view works American author Stephen Krasner. This study is developed dialogue with Global ...

We study the notions of positive cone, characteristic and C-characteristic in (Krasner) hyperfields. demonstrate how these interact order to produce interesting results theory For instance, we provide a criterion for deciding whether certain hyperfields cannot be obtained via Krasner’s quotient construction. prove that any integer (larger than 1) can realized as some infinite hyperfield an anal...

This article questions· ~hether it is useful to think of problem behavior as caused, and whether causal information about problem behavior is a necessary prerequisite to changing it. Psychoanalytic, behavioral, systemic, and solutionRfocused approaches to the issue are discussed briefly. Taking the perspective that the cause or causes of a particular client's problem behavior cmmot be known, it...

Intuitively, if two strings S1 and S2 are sufficiently similar and we already have an FM-index for S1 then, by storing a little extra information, we should be able to reuse parts of that index in an FM-index for S2. We formalize this intuition and show that it can lead to significant space savings in practice, as well as to some interesting theoretical problems.
