Calabi-Yau Manifolds and Feynman Integral Computations: The Family of Banana Feynman Graphs
Nega, Christoph (2022-01-17)In this thesis we use geometrical and string theoretic inspired methods to compute Feynman integrals. We analyze the important family of l-loop banana Feynman graphs. For this we relate the abstract l-loop Feynman integral ... -
Calculating Corrections in F-Theory from Refined BPS Invariants and Backreacted Geometries
Poretschkin, Maximilian (2015-03-31)This thesis presents various corrections to F-theory compactifications which rely on the computation of refined Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) invariants and the analysis of backreacted geometries. <br /> Detailed ... -
Calculating Sparse and Dense Correspondences for Near-Isometric Shapes
Burghard, Oliver (2018-05-29)Comparing and analysing digital models are basic techniques of geometric shape processing. These techniques have a variety of applications, such as extracting the domain knowledge contained in the growing number of digital ... -
Calibration of Terrestrial Laser Scanners: Kalibrierung terrestrischer Laserscanner
Holst, Christoph; Neuner, Hans; Wieser, Andreas; Wunderlich, Thomas; Kuhlmann, Heiner (2016)The calibration of a laser scanner is necessary to reduce systematic errors in the acquired point cloud. Furthermore, calibrating laser scanners is motivated by the need of users to access up-to-date quality information. ... -
Calidad de aire y sostenibilidad: Revisión de la contaminación atmosférica por PM2.5 en ciudades de América Latina y Europa
Maldonado García, Eliana; Aguirre Rincón, Pablo (2024-02-12)En este artículo abordo la centralidad de los cuidados, entendiéndolos como un derecho, no sólo para la comunidad sino para la naturaleza, desde el marco conceptual de la ecología política feminista latinoamericana. Propongo ... -
Call Center in Deutschland: Räumliche Analyse einer standortunabhängigen Dienstleistung
Halves, Jan-Peter (2001)Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich am Beispiel der für Deutschland noch relativ neuen Dienstleistung Call Center kritisch mit der Büromarktforschung und der Standortlehre von Büro betrieben auseinander. Der empirische Ansatz ... -
Can Mobile Money Facilitate Cash Transfers to Farmers and the Rural Poor in the COVID-19 Context?
Greco, Angelica (2020-06)Mobile money is widespread across Africa. The GSMA reports that around half of the 1 billion mobile money accounts worldwide were registered in Africa in 2019. In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) alone, mobile money transactions ... -
Can resilience be built through micro-finance tools?: A case study of coping and adaptation strategies to climate-related shocks in Piura, Peru
Oft, Philine (2009-07-07)This study focuses on the livelihoods of rural households in the region of Piura in northern Peru, who are either farmers or livestock holders. The livelihood systems of these farmers are exposed to and vulnerable to ... -
