    Certain Paracontact Metrics Satisfying the Critical Point Equation

    The aim of this paper is to study theCPE (Critical Point Equation) on some paracontact metric manifolds.First, we prove that if a para-Sasakian metric satisfies the CPE,then it is Einstein with constant scalar curvature -2n(2n+1). Next,we prove that if (κ,μ)(\kappa,\mu)-paracontact metric satisfies theCPE, then it is locally isometric to the product of a flat(n+1)(n+1)-dimensional manifold and nn-dimensional manifold ofnegative constant curvature4-4

    The Concept of Dhi, Dhriti and Smriti in relation to Mental Disorder w.s.r. to Modern Lifestyle

    No full text
    Ayurveda, an ancient system of traditional medicine, is known as "the science of life." Its primary goal is to maintain and preserve physical and mental health.[1] and provides holistic approach to integrates the mind, body and soul. A proper balance of Dhi, Dhriti, and Smriti is essential for preserving mental health and preventing mental disorders. The physical mind, or Manas, is closely linked to Dhi (intellect), Dhriti (information processing), and Smriti (memory). Dhi represents intelligence, aiding in learning, focus, and understanding. For Dhi to function optimally, the Vata dosha must be balanced. Dhriti involves the chemical and electrical processing of information, which is associated with the Pitta dosha. Smriti is the ability, to remember, and its proper functioning requires a balanced Kapha dosha. When these three elements are well-coordinated, mental health remains in balance. Modern lifestyles - marked by stress, poor eating habits, and sedentary behaviour - can adversely affect Dhi (intellect), Dhriti (willpower), and Smriti (memory), which are essential for optimal mental and cognitive functioning according to Ayurveda. This disruption may lead to weakened memory, reduced concentration, and impaired decision-making abilities. Daivavyaprashraya, Yuktivyapashrya, Satvavajaya Chikitsa, Aachara Rasayana, Dinacharya, Ritucharya and Yoga therapy is described in Ayurveda for resolving these ailments

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
