On the super Mumford form in the presence of Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz punctures
… (1988) to give an expression for the super Mumford form on the moduli spaces of super Riemann surfaces with Ramond and Neveu–Schwarz punctures. In the Ramond case we take the number of punctures to be large compared to the genus. We consider for the case of Neveu-Schwarz punctures the super …

Technological ambiguity and the uneasy conscience: bringing Reinhold Niebuhr’s theology into dialogue with the philosophy of Lewis Mumford and Herbert Marcuse towards a Christian conception of responsibility in the technical age
… conduct. There are at least two thinkers, Lewis Mumford and Herbert Marcuse, who frame their understanding of the question of technological neutrality in a way that diminishes the pitfalls of either position. While Mumford holds that technology is neutral, he is still attentively critical of the …

Rigid Analytic Uniformization of Hyperelliptic Curves
We describe a method for approximating the Mumford curve model O/Gamma of a given totally split hyperelliptic curve y2 = i=12g+2x-a i . Once the generators of the Schottky group Gamma are obtained, we also explain how to use them to compute the period lattice of the Jacobian of the curve.

NAVIGATING THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT: READING BERENICE ABBOTT’S CHANGING NEW YORK
… and urban planning theories of Lewis Mumford and Henry-Russell Hitchcock. Abbott appropriated both Mumford and Hitchcock’s theories on the linear trajectory of architecture, selecting and composing her imagery to fashion for the viewer a decipherable sense of the built city. Within my …

Inertial Chow rings and a new asymptotic product
For any toric Deligne-Mumford stack X and equivariant vector bundle V , we can define an two associative inertial products. We give a ring presentation for the inertial Chow ring of X under each of these products and compute these rings in the toric case. In particular, we make explicit …

Framing for creativity : the impact of framing a task for gains and losses on risk perceptions and creative performance
… performance. A modified version of Antes and Mumford (2010)'s creativity in-basket was used, with either a gain or loss-framed manipulation. It was hypothesized that a mediated moderation would occur where self-efficacy moderated the mediation of risk perceptions on the impact of framing on …

A-infinity algebras for Lagrangians via polyfold theory for Morse trees with holomorphic disks
… with the finite dimensional analysis in Deligne-Mumford space. We then show that the Cauchy-Riemann section is sc-Fredholm, and by applying the polyfold perturbation we construct an A[infinity]. algebra over Z₂ coefficients. Under certain assumptions, we prove the invariance of this algebra with …

The impact of team social role performance on team cohesion and team performance
… social roles examined were those identified by Mumford, Campion, and Morgeson (2006): Cooperator, Communicator, and Calibrator. The Group Environmental Questionnaire (GEQ) developed by Carron, Widmeyer, and Brawley (1985) provided the measure of team cohesion on the individual and group levels. …

L'altra monumentalità, 1937-1951
… del dibattito negli Stati Uniti è Lewis Mumford e la sua dichiarazione di morte del monumento (1937), presupposto per la successiva critica al Movimento Moderno (e alla presunta incoerenza dei suoi principali esponenti). Infatti, a partire dall’inizio degli anni ’40, diversi …

Vektorielle Mehrniveaupassung. Anwendungen in der Bildsegmentierung

Ein weiterer Unterschied zu diesem Ansatz ist das System …

Effective Chabauty for symmetric powers of curves
… rational points. Using the ideas of Faltings, Mumford, Parshin and Raynaud, one obtains an upper bound on the upper bound on the number of rational points, XI, [paragraph]2, but this bound is too large to be used in any reasonable sense. In 1985, Coleman showed that Chabauty's method, which …

Creativity and Innovation Through the Job Demands-Resources Model
… Anderson, & Salgado, 2009; Hunter, Bedell, & Mumford, 2007), but results have been unclear about how this occurs (Hennessey & Amabile, 2010). This study used the job-demands resources model (Bakker & Demerouti, 2016) to examine the roles that burnout and work engagement play as mediators …

Homological invariants of some special varieties
… of points. We also compute the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the defining ideal of grids of lines and complete intersections of lines in P1×P1×P1. Then we study the regularity of another special variety, i.e., the edge ideal of a bicyclic graph and its powers. Specifically, we compute …

Israelizing Jerusalem : the encounter between architectural and national ideologies, 1967-1977
… Louis Kahn, Bruno Zevi, Philip Johnson and Lewis Mumford, forcefully attacked Jerusalem's modernist masterplan in favor of a spiritual and historical theme for the city. Their criticism became the catalyst for a beautification campaign that intriguingly resembled the British Mandate's "colonial …

Creativity or creativities: A study of domain generality and specificity
… multiple resources in the person (Amabile, 1996; Mumford & Gustafson, 1988; Sternberg & Lubart, 1995). Regression and discriminant function analyses showed that it was possible to identify both traits general to different dimensions and patterns in creativity and traits that are specific to one …

Generic lines in projective space and the Koszul property

Conceptions of design in a culture of simulation

Rees algebras and iterated Jacobian duals

Singuläre Modulformen und involutive Algebren
