Murmuration for violin trio
No full textThis short work for three violins takes its inspiration from the mesmerising sight of a flock of migrating starlings in flight. A murmuration consists of thousands of birds, creating ever-changing patterns as the birds swoop, soar and change direction in a mass of connected movement. Premiered at the Nelson Centre for Performing Arts 9 February 2019. This piece is dedicated to its premiere performers Helene Pohl, Nikki Chooi and Alexander Pavlovskyhttps://www.music.org.nz
Gerhart Pohl and Hauptmann, ... Carl Hauptmann
No full textThe following text presents a little‑known fact from the history of Silesian‑German literature: the relationship between the writers Gerhart Pohl and Carl Hauptmann. Pohl (1902–1966) – first and foremost a prose writer, but also a playwright, publisher, reader, columnist and prominent member of writers’ associations – is known in literary circles primarily as an acquaintance, biographer and a kind of “guardian of memory” of the other Hauptmann brother, the Nobel Prize winner Gerhart. A closer examination of the sources, however, reveals Carl Hauptmann’s significant role in Pohl’s literary legacy and biography, as well as the great esteem in which Pohl held Carl Hauptmann. Firstly – Gerhart Pohl mentions the novel “Einhart der Lächler” as one of the main inspirations for taking the literary path. Secondly – Pohl’s first meeting with Carl Hauptmann takes place more than a decade earlier than Pohl’s meeting with Gerhart Hauptmann. Finally – Pohl considers Carl Hauptmann to be a precursor of Expressionism, as well as the author of the greatest German‑language book of the Rübezahl. The source material for the following analysis are Gerhart Pohl’s texts about Carl Hauptmann from his journalistic and occasional texts and essays

Wallnöfer, pers. comm.). These two specimens are syntypes of <i>L. microphylla</i>, and the previous typification of Cunha (1985) needs to be corrected (Art. 9.2 of the ICN), since it represents the first-step lectotype of <i>L. microphylla</i> and now requires the second-step typification by the way of subsequent lectotypification (Art. 9.17 of the ICN). For this reason, we designated herein the specimen <i>Pohl s.n.</i> (W0071087) the second-step lectotype of <i>L. microphylla</i>, that agree well with the morphological description presented in the protologue. Based on the type materials, the application of the name <i>L. microphylla</i> Pohl is confirmed as a heterotypic synonym of <i>L. candicans,</i> as previously accepted by Cunha (1985).</p>Published as part of <i>Gerace, Samuele, Bovini, Massimo G., Peruzzi, Lorenzo & Baumgratz, José Fernando A., 2022, Typification of names in the neotropical genus Luehea (Malvaceae: Grewioideae), pp. 180-188 in Phytotaxa 542 (2)</i> on pages 183-184, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.542.2.5, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/6415980">http://zenodo.org/record/6415980</a>
Illustration 63: Zeitschrift für die Buchillustration: Heft 1/1974
No full textThis is one of two unusual finds in a lovely Berlin used bookshop. I did not know of the magazine Illustration 63. Antiquariat Ihring had several copies, and I looked through them. Not surprisingly, there were many fables represented in the good artworks reproduced in the issues. I found two especially nicely done and took them along. Each issue of the magazine includes a set of Beilagen, individual pieces printed on their own and included inside the back cover. This issue includes two Beilagen that offer fables. Benno Huth's smaller two-colored linocut presents Canum legati ad Iovem, the dogs sent to Iove. It is a funny illustration. Alfred Pohl presents in larger format a woodcut representing Iriarte's version of Aesop's Two Goats. As might be expected, it is a dynamic illustration. What I seem to be learning from Wikipedia and German Google is that the magazine died after seventy-nine issues.Language note: German#709La Fontain
A transfer-operator-based relation between Laplace eigenfunctions and zeros of Selberg zeta functions
No full textOver the last few years Pohl (partly jointly with coauthors) developed dual `slow/fast' transfer operator approaches to automorphic functions, resonances, and Selberg zeta functions for a certain class of hyperbolic surfaces with cusps and all finite-dimensional unitaryrepresentations of .The eigenfunctions with eigenvalue of the fast transfer operators determine the zeros of the Selberg zeta function for . Further, if is cofinite and is the trivial one-dimensional representation then highly regular eigenfunctions with eigenvalue of the slow transfer operators characterize Maass cusp forms for .Conjecturally, this characterization extends to more general automorphic functions as well as to residues at resonances.In this article we study, without relying on Selberg theory, the relation between the eigenspaces of these two types of transfer operators for any Hecke triangle surface of finite or infinite area and any finite-dimensional unitary representation of the Hecke triangle group . In particular we provide explicit isomorphisms between relevant subspaces. This solves a conjecture by M\"oller and Pohl, characterizes some ofthe zeros of the Selberg zeta functions independently of the Selberg trace formula, and supports the previously mentioned conjectures.<br

Odd and even Maass cusp forms for Hecke triangle groups, and the billiard flow
No full textBy a transfer operator approach to Maass cusp forms and the Selberg zeta function for cofinite Hecke triangle groups, Moller and the present author found a factorization of the Selberg zeta function into a product of Fredholm determinants of transfer-operator-like families: Z(s) = det(1 - L-s(+)) det(1 - L-s(-)). In this article we show that the operator families L-s(+/-) arise as families of transfer operators for the triangle groups underlying the Hecke triangle groups, and that for s is an element of C, Res = 1/2, the operator L-s(+) (respectively L-s(-)) has a 1-eigenfunction if and only if there exists an even (respectively odd) Maass cusp form with eigenvalue s(1 - s). For non-arithmetic Hecke triangle groups, this result provides a new formulation of the Phillips-Sarnak conjecture on non-existence of even Maass cusp forms.Volkswagen Foundatio
Reorganisation and restructuring
No full textReorganizace a restrukturalizace Abstrakt Tato rigorózní práce se věnuje problematice reorganizací a restrukturalizací. Jako hlavní cíl si autor této práce stanovil popsání některých vybraných současných i budoucích sanačních procesů pro podnikatele, a to zejména s přihlédnutím k jejich reálné využitelnosti v praxi. Autor se konkrétně zaměřuje postupně na instituty reorganizace, neformální restrukturalizace a preventivní restrukturalizace. Kromě výše uvedeného se autor zamýšlí nad výhodami a nevýhodami těchto institutů a kriticky hodnotí jejich současnou úpravu, přičemž autor tyto kritické úvahy doplňuje o úvahy de lege ferenda, jež si kladou za cíl zlepšit fungování sanačních procesů v České republice. Pro splnění výše uvedených cílů autor v rámci jedné z úvodních kapitol rozebírá institut reorganizace, a to zejména s ohledem na jeho skutečnou úspěšnost a využitelnost v praxi, přičemž se věnuje především jeho aktuálním problematickým otázkám. Autor se rovněž zaměřuje na institut tzv. předbalené reorganizace, a to z důvodu jeho konsensuální povahy, která může sloužit jako zdroj inspirace pro budoucí sanační instituty, které budou mít základ vystavěný na bázi konsenzu mezi dlužníkem a jeho věřiteli. Pro zjištění skutečné úrovně úspěšnosti a využitelnosti reorganizace v České republice zpracoval autor vlastní...Reorganisation and restructuring Abstract This rigorous work is focused on the issue of reorganization and restructuring. The main goal of the author of this work is to describe some selected current and future remediation processes for entrepreneurs, especially taking into account their real usability in practice. The author specifically focuses on the institutes of reorganization, informal restructuring, and preventive restructuring. In addition to the above, the author considers the advantages and disadvantages of these institutes and critically evaluates their current regulation, while the author complements these critical considerations with de lege ferenda considerations, which aim to improve the functioning of restructuring processes in the Czech Republic. In order to achieve the above-mentioned goals, the author discusses the institute of reorganization in one of the introductory chapters, especially with regard to its actual success and usability in practice, focusing primarily on its current problematic issues. The author also focuses on the institute of the so-called pre-packaged reorganization, due to its consensual nature, which can serve as a source of inspiration for future restructuring institutes, which will have a basis built mainly on consensus between the debtor and his creditors.
