Abstract Ignatius of Antioch makes very little reference to specific texts from the Scriptures Israel. This has been interpreted as evidence interest in Scripture, which, turn used plot on a parting ways trajectory. The for this interpretation is weak. refers Scripture way that comparable some Pauline letters. Furthermore, his statements about and use suggest he differs hermeneutical assumption...

The main objective of this paper is to provide new low power solutions for Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) designers. Especially, this work focuses on the reduction of the power dissipation, which is showing an ever-increasing growth with the scaling down of the technologies. Various techniques at the different levels of the design process have been implemented to reduce the power dissipati...

Let S = Sg,n be a connected, orientable surface of genus g ≥ 0 with n ≥ 0 punctures. Let Teich(S) denote the corresponding Teichmüller space, and let Mod(S) denote the mapping class group of S. Understanding the analogy of Teich(S) with symmetric spaces is a wellknown theme. Recall that a complete Riemannian manifold X is symmetric if it is symmetric at each point x ∈ X: the map γ(t) 7→ γ(−t) w...

We describe the geometry of geodesics on a Lorentz ellipsoid: give explicit formulas for the first integrals (pseudo-confocal coordinates), curvature, geodesically equivalent Riemannian metric, the invariant area-forms on the timeand space-like geodesics and invariant 1-form on the space of null geodesics. We prove a Poncelet-type theorem for null geodesics on the ellipsoid: if such a geodesic ...
