This thesis consists of six articles on three different subjects in the area of complex analysis, operator theory and harmonic analysis. Part I - "The Shift Operator on Spaces of Vector-valued Analytic Functions" consists of three closely connected articles that investigate certain operators in the Cowen-Douglas class with spectrum D - the unit disc, or equivalently, the shift operator M_z

Popular Abstract in Swedish I centrum för min avhandling står den spanske dominkanen Alonso de Montúfar (ca.1489-1572) som mellan 1554 och 1572 var ärkebiskop av Mexiko. I synnerhet har jag studerat hur ärkebiskop Montúfar ville att kyrkan skulle organiseras (hans kyrkovision) och hur han försökte förverkliga sin vision (hans kyrkopolitik). Montúfar kom till Mexiko drygt trettio år efter den spanThis dissertation focuses on Archbishop Alonso de Montúfar OP (ca. 1489-1572). It seeks to explore two decades of sixteenth century Mexican Church History mainly through the study of documents found in Spanish and Mexican archives. Born outside Granada in Southern Spain, just after the conquest from the Muslims, Alonso de Montúfar assumed teaching and leading positions within the Dominican order.

Time perspective (TP) refers to individuals’ ways of constructing, reconstructing, and relating the psychological concepts of past, present,and future, and provides individuals with a coherence of experiences over time. In the present study, the relationships among five TPs (past negative, past positive, present fatalistic, present hedonistic, and future) were studied in a student sample (N = 280)

The objective of this paper is to perform an empirical description and analysis of the duration of EU imports from the rest of the world. Toward this aim, we employ a rich data set of detailed imports to individual EU15 countries from 140 non-EU exporters, covering the period 1962-2006. Using these data, we both perform a thorough descriptive analysis of the duration of EU trade, and test the data

We reconstructed forest development and disturbance events (fire and logging) during the last 1000 yr with tree-ring data, pollen and charcoal analysis from a semi-natural Fagus sylvatica-Picea abies forest (ca. I km(2)) in the hemiboreal zone. According to pollen analysis, Quercus robur together with Pinus sylvestris was abundant in the forest until the turn of the 18th/19th centuries when these

Optimal migration theory predicts that birds minimizing the overall time of migration should adjust stopover duration with respect to the rate of fuel accumulation. Recent theoretical developments also take into account the wind situation and predict that there is a time window (a set of days) during which birds should depart when assisted by winds but will not do so if there are head winds. There

Stribeck's publications Wugellager fur beliebige Belastungen' and 'Die wesentlichen Eigenschaften der Gleit- und Rollenlager' were remarkable for their time. Many of the findings were revolutionary and are still considered quite modem. The method used by Stribeck to calculate load distribution between the balls within a ball bearing is still used today, otherwise, a full finite element analysis wo

Stimulation around the superior cerebellar peduncle or within the deep cerebellar nuclei is known to inhibit the inferior olive with a very long latency. It has been suggested that this inhibition is mediated by the GABA-ergic nucleo-olivary pathway, but alternative explanations such as activation of an indirect excitatory pathway or a pathway via the red nucleus are possible. A long-latency inhib

Treating nitrogen-rich reject water from anaerobically digested sludge with deammonification has become a very beneficial side stream process. One common technique is the one-stage moving bed bioreactors (MBBRs), which in comparison with the other deammonification techniques can be started up without seeding anammox bacteria. This study investigated the impact of biofilm seeding on the start-up of

Despite rapid development, modern graphics hardware is still much too slow to render photo-realistic images in real time, and it will most likely remain so if we rely only on yearly growth in hardware performance. Therefore, better algorithms are constantly needed in order to advance the field. In the first part of this thesis, we present new algorithms for hardware rasterization. We investigate

Objectives. Accidents in health care, resulting in injury or death to the patient, are a matter of considerable concern. The aim of this study is to examine whether system weaknesses can contribute to these accidents, and if so, how. Design. Eight consecutive accidents reported to the Health Authority in Sweden were analysed using MTO (Man-Technique-Organization) analysis. Setting. Emergency care

Reseavdraget – Motverkar det politiska spelet incitament som kan förbättra miljön? Reseavdraget, att vara berättigad till att dra av en del av kostnaderna som uppkommer till följd av resor till och från arbetsplatsen på skatten, har förundrat mig under flera år. Är reseavdraget rättvist utformat, belönar det ett samhällsekonomiskt olönsamt val eller kan det skapa incitament för arbetspendlare attIncome Tax-deduction for commuting expenses has been criticised and discussed for a long time without having reached any conclusions or reformations. Critical opinions in the debate are that a reformation would disfavour taxpayers living in the countryside with no options except car commuting and decreasing size of labour market regions. At the same time tax evasion is a huge problem because taxpa

The relationship between field measurements of vegetation in a semi arid region and NDVI from the 1 km NOAA AVHRR was investigated within this study. The Hoanib catchment in the northwestern Namibia was chosen as study area. The field measurements were carried out during the month of February 1999. Different NDVI values and combinations of NDVI were used and it was found that the integrated NDVI u

In the fall of year 2000 I went to Palestine to conduct a Minor Field Study. The subject of the study was to investigate the connection between Human Rights and Intellectual Property in this part of the world. By the end of September that year the new intifada broke out and I had to leave Palestine without finishing the study. It must be mentioned that the situation of today does not in any way re

Uppsatsen handlar om de icke lagfästa principerna för ansvarsgenombrott i ett aktiebolag. Högsta domstolen har flera gånger med hänsyn till dessa principer ålagt aktieägare ett personligt betalningsansvar för aktiebolagets skulder, trots att ett aktiebolags främsta kännetecken är att dess aktieägare inte har något personligt betalningsansvar för bolagets förpliktelser enligt 1 kap. 3 § ABL. AktiebThe essay is about the non-statutory principles of the corporate veil of a corporation. The Supreme Court has several times with regard to these principles imposed shareholders a personal liability for the limited company's liabilities. This despite the fact that a limited liability company's main characteristic is that its shareholders have no personal liability for the company's obli

Sony Mobile has a quite large internal user group with the purpose of investigating the usability of their mobile devices. The Telephony Domain was using among other techniques usability testing to evaluate the usability of their products. The performed conventional usability testing has its limitations e.g. the controlled test environment cannot fully represent real life setting and it’s very exp

Power consumption has become a leading concern for SoC aimed at 5G products that demand increased functionality, smaller form factors, and low energy footprint. For some EMCA IP blocks a hierarchical clock gating mechanism ensures coarse-grained power savings based on actual processing need but for many blocks this approach cannot be employed. This implies that these blocks have to rely on a high
