Database for: Excavations at Tall Jawa, Jordan: Volume 3, The Iron Age Pottery
No full textThis is a Microsoft Access database of imagery, drawings, and photos accompanying Excavations at Tall Jawa, Jordan: Volume 3, The Iron Age Pottery by P.M. Michèle Daviau. The text and database present a detailed typology of the Iron Age pottery excavated from 1989 to 1995. Together, they represent an in-depth analysis of the forming techniques employed to make each type of vessel from bowls to colanders, cooking pots to pithoi.
The digital archive is a work in progress by the author. The archive currently holds the collection for Excavation Field D. Upon completion, it will include seven collections, each one consisting of a database of diagnostic sherds and vessels as well as the images of these pots as .tiff files. Databases are related to excavation fields and are designed for meaningful searches: A, B, C-east, C-west, A-east (associated with C-west), D and E

Spectral flow and bifurcation of critical points of strongly indefinite functionals I
No full textSpectral flow is a well-known homotopy invariant of paths of self-adjoint Fredholm operators. We describe here a new construction of this invariant and prove the following theorem: Let f : I × U -> R be a C2 function defined on the product of a real interval I = [a, b] with a neighborhood U of the origin of a real separable Hilbert space H and such that for each t in I, 0 is a critical point of the functional f (t, ·). Assume that the Hessian L of f at 0 is Fredholm and moreover that L_a and L_b are nonsingular. If the spectral flow of the path L does not vanish, then the interval I contains at least one bifurcation point from the trivial branch for solutions of the equation Grad f (t, x) = 0. Equivalently: every neighborhood of I × {0} contains points of the form (t,x) where x is a critical point of f_t different from 0
Spectral flow and bifurcation of critical points of strongly indefinite functionals. II. Bifurcation of periodic orbits of Hamiltonian systems
No full textOur main results here are as follows: Let X* be a family of 2?-periodic Hamiltonian vectorfields that depend smoothly on a real parameter * in [a, b] and has a known, trivial, branch s* of 2?-periodic solutions. Let P* be the Poincare map of the linearization of X* at s* . If the ConleyZehnder index of the path P* does not vanish, then any neighborhood of the trivial branch of periodic solutions contains 2?-periodic solutions not on the branch. Moreover, if each solution s* is constant and each linearization A* of X* at s* is time independent, then bifurcation of 2?-periodic orbits from the branch of equilibria arises whenever i(Ab){i(Ab), where i(A) is the index of the linear Hamiltonian system Ju*=Au

Our Mission and our Values' : an approach to Russian Banks' Communication Strategies
No full textThis paper looks at the mission statements of Russian banks posted on their websites with the aim of identifying recurrent discursive strategies in an intercultural perspective. Starting from the surveyof twenty websites of Russian banks, the author attempts to highlight the linguistic and visual treatment of mission and value statements, where there seems to emergean interesting mix of both "globalized" and local, culture-specific, features
La politica linguistica nei paesi della CSI
No full textThe paper deals with language status and language use in post Soviet Republics. After a brief introduction to Soviet language policy, the author deals with data from the National census, about the number of Russian speakers in these areas in the years 1989-1991 and in 2004-2006. Other data regard the use of Russian language, as opposed to/or in accordance with titular languages, in different social spheres (education, media, institutions)
