These lecture notes were written for a short course to be delivered in March 2017 at the Atlantic Algebra Centre of the Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. Folklore says that (Hopf) bialgebras are distinguished algebras whose representation category admits a (closed) monoidal structure. Here we discuss generalizations of (Hopf) bialgebras based on this principle. • The first lecture is...

This paper deals with the Lecture and Tutorial Timetabling Problem at an institution in a Tunisian University. Our objective is to construct a feasible timetable for all lectures and tutorials taken by different groups of each subsection of any section in the institution. For this, we describe the timetabling problem of the institution considered and list all specific hard and soft constraints....

This paper is an overview of the main properties of Lagrange and Hamilton spaces. Work presented as invited lecture at CAIM 2014, September 19-22, “Vasile Alecsandri” University of Bacău, Romania.

These notes reproduce the content of a short, 50-minutes, survey talk given at the Nice University in September, 2004. We added a few topics that have not been touched on in the lecture by lack of time.

These are lecture notes of a course given by Alex Kumjian at the RMMC Summer School at the University of Wyoming, Laramie, June 1-5, 2015. Warning: little proofreading has been done.

Objectives To investigate medical students' perceptions of lecture and non-lecture-based instructional methods and compare preferences for use and quantity of each during preclinical training. Methods We administered a survey to first- and second-year undergraduate medical students at the University of Alabama School of Medicine in Birmingham, Alabama, USA aimed to evaluate preferred instruct...

in the last half century is indubitable, but which of the suggested causes?diet, habits, presence of infective agents, etc.?are responsible for this I have, frankly, no idea. Concerning the increased frequency of the disease, the unpublished observations of the late Dr. Statham, of Cheddar, are very convincing. For many years before his death, he had been encountering a fair number of cases in ...

Intuitively, player i is only interested in getting the items in Σi (or some more) and its valuation for these items is θi. Note that in the single-minded case every player simply reports a pair (Si,bi) (not necessarily equal to (Σi,θi)) to the auctioneer. Thus, the input can be represented compactly and is polynomial in n and m. The allocation problem for the single-minded case is as follows: ...
