This is a condensed version of a long epic, written between 750 and 500 B.C., consisting of 50, 000 lines of Sanskrit verse. Divided into seven Kanor books, it tells the story of Rama from his birth to his death. At regular intervals throughout the text, the chapters being condensed are designated by Kantitles and numbers. Each interval is appropriate in length for a daily reading, and there are 365 intervals. The cast of characters is provid...

This book aims to include the effects of a progressive personal tax into the deterministic dynamic theory of the firm. To this end the author investigates the impact of a progressive personal tax on the optimal dividend, financing and investment policy of a shareholder-controlled, value-maximising firm. More specifically, the principal aim is the justification of the thesis that during each stage of their evolution, firms will be controlled by...

Das Buch enthält Beiträge eines Symposiums des DFG-Schwerpunkt-Programms "Ökonomik natürlicher Ressourcen" über die Auswirkung umweltpolitischer Instrumente für den Energiebereich. Im Vordergrund steht die Quantifizierung der Kosten und Nutzen konkreter umweltpolitischer Maßnahmen. Ferner werden Ansätze zur Erklärung der Nutzung regenerierbarer Umweltressourcen diskutiert. Im einzelnen werden in den Beiträgen folgende Themen behandelt: Emissio...

Dies ist ein Lehrbuch der Programmiersprache FORTRAN 77, der am weitesten verbreiteten Programmiersprache in Wissenschaft und Technik. Es wird der vollstandige Sprachumfang von FORTRAN 77 in der derzeit gultigen genormten Form gebracht. Dabei werden verschie­ dene Ziele verfolgt: Zum einen solI dem Leser ein bequemer Zugang zu FORTRAN ermoglicht werden, unabhangig davon, ob er schon eine andere Programmiersprache kennt oder nicht. Zum anderen ...

An introduction to the art of tribal peoples of North America, Africa, and the South Pacific with an emphasis on the art in cultural context and as a system of visual communication within each tribal area.

It was the aim of the conference to present issues in parallel computing to a community of potential engineering/scientific users. An overview of the state-of-the-art in several important research areas is given by leading scientists in their field. The classification question is taken up at various points, ranging from parametric characterizations, communication structure, and memory distribution to control and execution schemes. Central issu...

This research monograph concerns the Nevanlinna factorization of analytic functions smooth, in a sense, up to the boundary. The peculiar properties of such a factorization are investigated for the most common classes of Lipschitz-like analytic functions. The book sets out to create a satisfactory factorization theory as exists for Hardy classes. The reader will find, among other things, the theorem on smoothness for the outer part of a functio...

This largely self-contained research monograph addresses the following type of questions. Suppose one encounters a continuous time dynamical system with some built-in symmetry. Should one expect periodic motions which somehow reflect this symmetry? And how would periodicity harmonize with symmetry? Probing into these questions leads from dynamics to topology, algebra, singularity theory, and to many applications. Within a global approach, the ...

These notes present very recent results on compact K¿er-Einstein manifolds of positive scalar curvature. A central role is played here by a Lie algebra character of the complex Lie algebra consisting of all holomorphic vector fields, which can be intrinsically defined on any compact complex manifold and becomes an obstruction to the existence of a K¿er-Einstein metric. Recent results concerning this character are collected here, dealing with i...

This research monograph deals with optimal periodic control problems for systems governed by ordinary and functional differential equations of retarded type. Particular attention is given to the problem of local properness, i.e. whether system performance can be improved by introducing periodic motions. Using either Ekeland's Variational Principle or optimization theory in Banach spaces, necessary optimality conditions are proved. In particula...

This book has two-fold aims. In a first part it gives an introductory, thorough and essentially self-contained treatment of the general theory of two-parameter processes that has developed since around 1975. Apart from two survey papers by Merzbach and Meyer it is the first text of this kind. The second part presents the results of recent research by the author on martingale theory and stochastic calculus for two-parameter processes. Both the ...
