In this paper, we introduce a q-analog of the bi-periodic Lucas sequence, called as the q-bi-periodic Lucas sequence, and give some identities related to the q-bi-periodic Fibonacci and Lucas sequences. Also, we give a matrix representation for the q-bi-periodic Fibonacci sequence which allow us to obtain several properties of this sequence in a simple way. Moreover, by using the explicit formu...

This article considers the representation of war in Vietnamese cinema by engaging in a gendered exploration of the legacy of war. By taking gender as an analytical category and cinema as a form of representation, the article examines the largely unexplored issue of the impact of war on female identity in Vietnam. Through the discussion of two recent Vietnamese films, – Dò•i cát (Sandy Lives) an...

Sentences containing VP ellipsis (VPE) must find a matching antecedent VP for the elided VP. This is a condition associated with recoverability: when a VP-gap is encountered, a VP representation from the preceding context must be copied into the empty VP position for the sentence to be interpreted. What kind of representation this is has long been debated— syntactic identity [1-3] has been argu...

In many ways, globalization created the problem of representation for feminist solidarity across the borders of the nation state. This problem is one of presenting a cohesive identity for representation in the transnational public sphere. This paper proposes a solution to this problem of a cohesive identity for women’s representation by drawing on the work of Paul Ricœur. What these women seem ...

The specialty of forensic psychiatry is advancing in practice and in its scholarship. One task for an evolving discipline is to define and master the nature of its work. In this article we assert that the work of testifying in court is more than the sharing of specialized knowledge. It is performance. Anthropology, religious studies, political science, and psychology (among other disciplines) h...

In this article, I explore the question of what it means to create a science for all from the vantage point of urban homeless children. I draw on the work of critical and feminist scholars in science and education, as well as my own teaching and research with urban homeless children, to question how inclusive the science education community is in its efforts to understand the margins of science...
