(2012-10-16)This dissertation deals with pure financial derivatives and financial derivatives which are components of life insurance contracts.<br /> Chapter 1 focuses on the complex situation of basket foreign exchange (FX) products. ... -
Primary cilia and their effects on immune cell functions and metabolism: a model
(2022-05)Primary cilia are hair-like protrusions of the plasma membrane that function as cellular antennae and are present on most cells in the human body. Primary cilia dysfunction leads to severe diseases, commonly termed ... -
The primary cilium is a unique lipid microdomain engineered to transduce extracellular cues
(2022-04-06)Cilia are membrane protrusions located at the surface of almost every vertebrate cell. Cilia come in two different flavors: motile cilia, which generate a fluid flow or propel cells for active movement, and immotile, also ... -
Das Primäre Lymphom des Zentralen Nervensystems: Prognostische Faktoren
(2007)Primäre ZNS-Lymphome sind ganz überwiegend B-Zell-Lymphome vom diffus-großzelligen Typ, die sich primär und ausschließlich im ZNS manifestieren. In 10 bis 20 % ist außerdem ein okulärer Befall festzustellen. Von primären ... -

(2015-11-24)Gegenstand unserer Untersuchungen war die Erhebung typischer Eigenschaften des kleinzelligen Ösophaguskarzinoms mit Berücksichtigung des Auftretens, dem Verlauf, der Auswirkung und der Behandlungsoptionen. Ziel unserer ... -
Principal manifold learning by sparse grids
(2008-04)In this paper we deal with the construction of lower-dimensional manifolds from high-dimensional data which is an important task in data mining, machine learning and statistics. Here, we consider principal manifolds as the ... -
A priori L2-discretization error estimates for the state in elliptic optimization problems with pointwise inequality state constraints
(2016-03)In this paper, an elliptic optimization problem with pointwise inequality constraints on the state is considered. The main contribution of this paper are a priori <em>L<sup>2</sup></em>-error estimates for the discretization ... -
A priori error estimates for state constrained semilinear parabolic optimal control problems
(2016-02)We consider the finite element discretization of semilinear parabolic optimization problems subject to pointwise in time constraints on mean values of the state variable. In contrast to many results in numerical analysis ... -
Priorities for inclusive urban food system transformations in the Global South: Food Systems Summit Brief Prepared by Research Partners of the Scientific Group for the Food Systems Summit, May 10th, 2021
(2021-05-10)This paper is concerned with: (i) challenges to food systems in Africa, Asia, and Latin America caused by urban development, (ii) how existing food systems respond to these challenges, and (iii) what can be recommended to ... -
„Priroda“ und „graždanskoe obščestvo“: Zur rechtlich-kulturellen Codierung des Naturverhältnisses in Russland
(2011-06-01)In der Arbeit wird das Naturverhältnis, d.h. die Vorstellung der Natur in Literatur, Kunst, Religion und Recht [Gephart, 2002] in Russland analysiert. Das Naturverhältnis wird in vier Dimensionen - in eine normative, ... -
The private sector and the marginalized poor: An assessment of the potential role of business in reducing poverty and marginality in rural Ethiopia
(2015-04-16)The present research analyzes the role that the private sector can play in reducing poverty and marginality in Ethiopia by providing improved agricultural inputs to marginalized poor farmers. Two important insights motivate ... -
Private service provision contributes to widespread innovation adoption among smallholder farmers: Laser land levelling technology in northwestern India
(2024-05)This study investigates key institutional factors promoting the adoption of laser land levelling (LLL), a technology that has gained wide popularity among farmers in northwestern India despite being indivisible. The main ... -
Proanthocyanidins in barley and malt analyzed by pressurized liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction and HPLC
(2005)Aim of this work is to develop a convenient method for the determination of proanthocyanidins in barley and malt. In a second step this method is applied to 61 barley and malt samples of different varieties, proveniences ... -
Probabilistic and differential geometric methods for relativistic and Euclidean Dirac and radiation fields
(2020-07-09)The main objective of the thesis is to study relativistic and Euclidean Fermionic quantum fields from a geometrical and probabilistic point of view as opposed to the standard treatment which is more algebraic in nature.<br ... -
Probabilistic Image Models and their Massively Parallel Architectures: A Seamless Simulation- and VLSI Design-Framework Approach
(2007)Algorithmic robustness in real-world scenarios and real-time processing capabilities are the two essential and at the same time contradictory requirements modern image-processing systems have to fulfill to go significantly ... -
Die Probe auf das Humane: Zum theologischen Profil der Ethik Franz Böckles
(2005)Mit der Person Franz Böckle wird ein rationales Ethikkonzept assoziiert. Für den renommierten Lehrer und Berater war die menschliche Selbstaufgegebenheit so zentral, dass wiederholt zu hören war, in Böckles Moraltheologie ... -
Probing Gravity with High-Precision Pulsar Timing
(2016-12-22)Pulsars are highly magnetised neutron stars which spin tremendously fast, at periods that are as low as a few milliseconds. Chapter 1 gives an overview of their basic observational properties and applications. Pulsars are ... -
Probing new physics with boosted H → bb decays with the ATLAS detector at 13 TeV
