Abstract:
The planetary instantaneity that digital technologies have enabled is leading to an effacement of the divisions that separate the past from the future, ensuring that the present is ubiquitous. While contemporary architecture seems to have lost the capacity to conceive of the past as a transformative force, this book stresses the need to rethink today's complex temporal mechanisms through the notion of the untimely. This concept opens up a whole spectrum of possibilities to go beyond what seems predictable. The contributors to this book employ critical concepts and architectural design tools in

Abstract:
Kiev has always revealed a surprising capacity for assimilation, giving rise over time to multi-ethnic, multi-faith and multi-cultural contexts of various types. Thinking of the "Kiev text" leads inevitably to consideration of the other emblematic text of the Ukrainian identity, the no less composite reality of Lviv. This publication contains the contributions presented at a Conference (Milan, February 2007) addressed to the "cultural text" of Kiev and Lviv. The authors are specialists with different cultural profiles, and the book is of a deliberately inter-disciplinary character. In view of

In this chapter, necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for the Poincaré inequality to hold, for the embedding of W01,p(Ω) in Lp(Ω‎) to be compact, and for a self-adjoint realization of − aijDiDj + q to have a wholly discrete spectrum when q is real and bounded below. The results are proved using a method of Maz’ya.

Abstract:
This article examines asymptotic singular value distributions in information theory, with particular emphasis on some of the main applications of random matrices to the capacity of communication channels. Results on the spectrum of random matrices have been adopted in information theory. Furthermore, information theorists, motivated by certain channel models, have obtained a number of new results in random matrix theory (RMT). Most of those results are related to the asymptotic distribution of the (square of) the singular values of certain random matrices that model data communication channels

This chapter analyzes the neo-noir Bound (1996). It shows how the splitting of sex from gender liberates generic conventions in the service of protagonists who, enacting a lesbian romance in film noir, avail themselves of generic formulas to double-cross the villains. Analyzing the creative capacity of noir gender “to turn cartwheels on both male and female characters within a system of sexual difference,” the chapter shows how Bound—self-consciously playing on the debated identities of butch, femme, and feminine—generates different-sex erotics through same-gender protagonists.

Abstract:
This chapter argues that human existence is stained by the tragic experience of our failed encounter with the Other. Mental pathology is a miscarried attempt to deal with the suffering that stems from the intolerability of the awareness of the Other’s radical alterity. Our incapacity to recognize the Other is the mark of being human, not a subjective inability. In our tending towards the Other we experience the Other as unattainable. The essence of the Other is its otherness: the Other can never be fully appropriated, but only approximated, as a frustrating limitation for our desire and of our

During the last few decades, feminist affect studies have enunciated challenging epistemological and ontological questions based on numerous discussions and readings of affect as emotive intensities, intuitive reactions, and life forces. Affect has created a space for rethinking theoretical issues that range from the dualisms between body and mind to the critique of identity politics and critical reading. This theorizing has underlined the sensual qualities of being and the capacity to experience and understand the world in profoundly relational and productive ways. This chapter presents examp

This chapter examines Ecuador as a case of policy regime juxtaposition, marked by the success of the first type of subnational policy challenge and the failure of the second. With respect to the first challenge, two dynamic mayors on the right of the political spectrum—León Febres Cordero (1992–2000) and Jaime Nebot (2000–18)—were able to design, build, and consolidate a distinctly neoliberal model in the critical port city of Guayaquil.

For a long time, biological studies of communication have been based on the postulate that communication has evolved to ensure the transmission of veridical information between conspecifics. Ethological studies of a variety of animal species have demonstrated that transmission of false information is a relevant component of intraspecific signals and that the adaptive benefit of deceiving others was a driving force in the evolution of communication. In primate species, evolving a larger neocortex was a viable evolutionary strategy to respond to environmental challenges that demand enhanced capa

Applied (extrinsic) PEEP—is usually one of the first ventilator settings chosen when mechanical ventilation (MV) is initiated. Applying PEEP increases alveolar pressure and volume.

This question raises the spectre of idealism. Can the role of self-consciousness in thought be understood without implying that the truth of propositional thoughts is dependent in some way on the activities or experiences of the thinkers of them?
