Zusammenfassung Unzweifelhaft haben Max Frisch und Friedrich Dürrenmatt der Literatur Schweiz nach 1945 zu internationalem Ansehen verholfen. Ihre besondere Stellung innerhalb verdankt sich nicht zuletzt ihrer kritischen Haltung gegenüber in weithin anerkannten politischen gesellschaftlichen Gepflogenheiten. Die nächste Autorengeneration, die nur Schweiz, sondern überall aufmüpfiger war, konnte...

In the summer of 1939 Otto Frisch, who was in Copenhagen, received an invitation from Mark Oliphant, a professor of physics at Birmingham, to come to Birmingham for the summer to see if some arrangements might be made for Frisch to emigrate to Birmingham. War came that fall and Frisch could not return safely to Denmark. He was given a lectureship that enabled him to stay. The previous Christmas...

In 2005, Nualart and Peccati [12] showed the so-called Fourth Moment Theorem asserting that, for a sequence of normalized multiple Wiener-Itô integrals to converge to the standard Gaussian law, it is necessary and sufficient that its fourth moment tends to 3. A few years later, Kemp et al. [8] extended this theorem to a sequence of normalized multiple Wigner integrals, in the context of the fre...

The identification of dynamical models in the errors-in-variables (EIV) framework has seen renewed interest during the last decades. One of the main advantages of such a framework is the symmetrical treatment of all variables. One important EIV identification method is the Frisch scheme, which yields estimates for the measurement noise variances as well as the model parameters. Building on a re...
