  1. 21. Computations of Automorphic Functions on Fuchsian Groups

    Author : Helen Avelin; Andreas Strömbergsson; Dennis Hejhal; Warwick Tucker; Michael Rubinstein; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Mathematics; 11F72; 11F03; 11F06; 11Y35; 11-04; 11Y16; 33F06; 34B27; 33F05; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers which all deal with computations of automorphic functions on cofinite Fuchsian groups. In the first paper we develop an algorithm for numerical computation of the Eisenstein series. We focus in particular on the computation of the poles of the Eisenstein series. READ MORE

  2. 22. Exploring Monoclonal Antibody Action Against the Group A Streptococcal M Protein

    Author : Sebastian Wrighton; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; group A streptococcus; Streptococcus pyogenes; fibronectin; phagocytosis; innate immunity; antibodies; adaptive immunity;

    Abstract : Group A Streptococcus (GAS) is a significant human pathogen that has developed multipleimmune evasion mechanisms to counter the host immune response. One of these mechanisms involvesthe production of the M protein, which, amongst other things, acts as an anti-phagocytic factor and canbind host proteins. READ MORE

  3. 23. A Quest for Legitimacy : Debating UN Security Council Rules on Terrorism and Non-proliferation

    Abstract : Since the end of the Cold War, international politics and international law have not only become increasingly intertwined, but their mutual implications have also become increasingly recognized by scholars. Yet research explicitly addressing the question of how political factors affect the emergence of legal rules is still limited. READ MORE

  4. 24. Fields of Gold : The Bioenergy Debate in International Organizations

    Author : Magdalena Kuchler; Björn-Ola Linnér; Johan Hedrén; Eva Friman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; bioenergy; biofuels; debate; discourse; concept; international organizations; international relations; FAO; IEA; IPCC; energy security; climate change; food security; food vs. fuel; bioenergi; biobränsle; debatt; diskurs; begrepp; internationella organisationer; internationella relationer; FAO; IEA; IPCC; energisäkerhet; klimatförändringar; livsmedelssäkerhet;

    Abstract : The concept of producing energy from biomass has, for the last two decades, occupied attention of policy-makers, private industries, researchers and civil societies around the world. The highly contested and contingent character of the biofuel production, its entanglement in the nexus of three problematic issues of energy, climate and agriculture, as well as its injection into the current socioeconomic arrangements, is what makes it timely to analyse.
