This article investigates the possibility of presence Church in public space through Christian persons their various everyday spheres. By employing dyadic understanding abiding-and-go (Michael Gorman) and abiding-and-sending (the Generous Love document), I argue that Christians represent whole church space. In turn, by representing church, also make Trinitarian communion present engagement. As ...

This article pursues the idea of inferring aspects of phonological underlying forms directly from surface contrasts by looking at optimality theoretic linguistic systems (Prince & Smolensky, 1993/2004). The main result proves that linguistic systems satisfying certain conditions have the faithful contrastive feature property: Whenever 2 distinct morphemes contrast on the surface in a particular...

With present (2021) tally rules, the number of seats in Bundestag is highly volatile. In 2017 it got 709 seats, 111 them extra-ordinary. The rules may double influence a voter who splits ballot, contrary to goal equal influence; increased assembly size concomitant. paper explains when and how this happens. A ballot’s combination Erststimme Zweitstimme information now ignored; as if they were...

We show that every (continuous) faithful product system admits a (continuous) faithful nondegenerate representation. For Hilbert spaces this is equivalent to Arveson’s result that every Arveson system comes from an E0–semigroup. We point out that for Hilbert modules this is not so. As applications we show a C–algebra version of a result for von Neumann algebras due to Arveson and Kishimoto, and...
