Grand Lebesgue Spaces are really Banach algebras relative to the convolution on unimodular locally compact groups equipped with Haar measure
No full textWe prove that the Grand Lebesgue Space built on a unimodular locally compact topological group, equipped with bi-invariant Haar measure, forms a Banach algebra relative to the convolution
Fundamental Solution for Cauchy Initial Value Problem for Parabolic PDEs with Discontinuous Unbounded First-Order Coefficient at the Origin. Extension of the Classical Parametrix Method
No full textWe prove the existence of a fundamental solution of the Cauchy initial boundary value problem on the whole space for a parabolic partial differential equation with discontinuous unbounded first-order coefficient at the origin. We establish also non-asymptotic, rapidly decreasing at infinity, upper and lower estimates for the fundamental solution. We extend the classical parametrix method of E.E. Levi
CRITERION FOR THE COINCIDENCE OF STRONG AND WEAK ORLICZ SPACES
No full textWe provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the coincidence, up to equivalence of the norms, between strong and weak Orlicz spaces. Roughly speaking, this coincidence holds true only for the so-called exponential spaces. We also find the exact value of the embedding constant which appears in the corresponding norm inequality
Exponential tail estimates in the law of ordinary logarithm (LOL) for triangular arrays of random variables
No full textWe derive exponential bounds for the tail of the distribution of normalized sums of triangular arrays of random variables, not necessarily independent, under the law of ordinary logarithm. Furthermore, we provide estimates for partial sums of triangular arrays of independent random variables belonging to suitable grand Lebesgue spaces and having heavy-tailed distributions
Generalization of Tail Inequalities for Random Variables in the Martingale Theory
No full textWe generalize the tail Doob's inequality, concerning two non-negative random variables, arising in the martingale theory, in three directions: on the more general source data, on the random variables belonging to the so-called Grand Lebesgue Spaces, as well as on the multidimensional variables. We also provide several examples. Moreover we show the exactness of the estimates obtained in the particular case of positive random variables having exponential distribution
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 PDFWe 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
