A popular thesis in both traditional and also structural dialectology is that vowels of the same class change manner – this called “Reihenschrittgesetz” (= parallel movement law) (cf. Pfalz 1918). The aim paper to re-examine “law” by investigating recent reflexes MHG ê œ ô rural South South-Central Bavarian dialects. Based on a comprehensive dialectal survey, real- apparent-time comparisons are...

We find a surface of degree 7 in È 3 (Ê) with 99 real nodes within a family of surfaces with dihedral symmetry: First, we consider this family over some small prime fields, which allows us to test all possible parameter sets using computer algebra. In this way we find some examples of 99-nodal surfaces over some of these finite fields. Then, the examination of the geometry of these surfaces all...

The purpose of this paper is to initiate the study of a new kind of asymptotic series expansion for solutions of differential equations containing a parameter. We obtain uniform asymptotic solutions for certain equations of the form ê»y" = ait, e)y , ( )' = d/dt, where n is a positive integer, t and e are real variables ranging over \t\ S U, 0 < e ^ €o, and a is a function infinitely differenti...

Our method for information retrieval uses Robertson's 2-poisson model which is one type of probablistic approach. This method achieved a comparatively high score in TREC. In the NTCIR contest, we designed systems that could be used for adhoc retrieval and cross-lingual task. This paper explains the systems. key words 2-poisson model, adhoc retrieval, cross lingual retrieval G °±ê+HKsÞð ·Ù À U ...

Given a mental picture Ĝ = (V, Ê) of some unknown graph G = (V,E), how can we verify that our mental image is correct, when the unknown graph is only accessible by querying pairs of vertices and getting their shortest path distance in G? For graphs of bounded degree, we give an algorithm that uses a number of queries that is at most O(log n) times the minimum number achievable. For graphs that ...

We present and study a family of metrics on the space of compact subsets of Ê N (that we call " shapes "). These metrics are " geometric " , that is, they are independent of rotation and translation; and these metrics enjoy many interesting properties, as, for example, the existence of minimal geodesics. We view our space of shapes as a subset of Banach (or Hilbert) manifolds: so we can define ...

Os Mangás são as histórias em quadrinhos nipônicas que buscam retratar desde narrativas cotidianas da população japonesa, mais diversas fantásticas a imaginação possibilitar criar. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi realizar um levantamento histórico das influências deram origem esse tipo específico de história quadrinho, buscando compreender assim características definiram singularidade é represent...

Însan hîssên xwe bi duanî ziman îfade dikin. Hîssên însanan gerdunî ne. Hêrs, hezkirin, şermkirin û hwd. gerdûnî Lê tiştên ku têne hezikirin an jê tê li gor çandan diguhere. Yanê hîs çand-spesîfîk in. Wexta kesek ji zimanekî zêdetir zimanan bizanibe dê çawa bijî. Gelo ew ê zimanê yekem ve din bîne ziman? Mijara duzimanîtî hiss vê pirsê dest pê dike. Di gotarê de bersiva di çarçoveya duzimanîtîy...
