Nova Peris
No full textNova Peris has had a remarkable career as an athlete. A mother at 19, Nova worked hard to earn a place in the Australian Women's Hockey team. In 1996, at the Summer Olympics held in Atlanta, USA, the Australian Women's Hockey team won the gold medal. Nova became the first Indigenous Australian and the first Northern Territorian to win an Olympic gold medal.
She embraced the new challenge of competing at an international level in Athletics. She won gold in the 200 metres and 4 x 100 metre relay at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur. Nova then went on to represent Australia in the semi finals in the 400 metres at the Sydney Olympics.
Among her other achievements, Nova was named Young Australian of the Year in 1997 and then became a treaty ambassador for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC). Through her charity 'Peris Enterprises' she continues to advocate and promote an active lifestyle and health checks among Indigenous children and communities.
Nova Peris is Australia's first Aboriginal woman elected to Federal Parliament in the 2013 Federal election on 7 September.

Limit orders and multilinear forms on l(p) spaces
No full text[EN] Since the concept of limit order is a useful tool to study operator ideals, we
propose an analogous definition for ideals of multilinear forms. From the limit orders
of some special ideals (of nuclear, integral, r-dominated and extendible multilinear
forms) we derive some properties of them and show differences between the bilinear
and n-linear cases (n ¿ 3).The third author was supported by the MCYT and FEDER Project BFM2002-01423 and grant GV-GRUPOS04/45Carando, D.; Dimant, V.; Sevilla Peris, P. (2006).

Convergence of monomial expansions in banach spaces
No full text[EN] If E is a Banach sequence space, then each holomorphic function defines a formal power series ¿ ¿ c ¿(f) z ¿. The problem of when such an expansion converges absolutely and actually represents the function goes back to the very beginning of the theory of holomorphic functions on infinite-dimensional spaces. Several very deep results have been given for scalar-valued functions by Ryan, Lempert and Defant, Maestre and Prengel. We go on with this study, looking at monomial expansions of vector-valued holomorphic functions on Banach spaces. Some situations are very different from the scalar-valued case. © 2011 Published by Oxford University Press. All rights reserved.Both authors were supported by the MEC Project MTM2008-03211.

Multidimensional Sevilla carpets Associated with P Systems
No full textIn this paper we address the problem of describing the complexity of the evolution of a P system. This is especially difficult in the case of P systems where the number of membranes in creases along the computation, via division or creation of membranes. In these cases the number of steps of a computation is not sufficient to evaluate the complexity. Sevilla Carpets were introduced in [1℄, and they describe the space-time complexity of P systems. Based on them, we de ne a four-dimensional manifold whih can be used to compare evolutions of P systems
A note on abscissas of Dirichlet series
No full textWe present an abstract approach to the abscissas of convergence of vector-valued Dirichlet series. As a consequence we deduce that the abscissas for Hardy spaces of Dirichlet series are all equal. We also introduce and study weak versions of the abscissas for scalar-valued Dirichlet series.A.

Convergence of Dirichlet polynomials in Banach spaces
No full text[EN] Recent results on Dirichlet series Sigma(n) a(n) 1/n(s), s is an element of C, with coefficients a(n) in an infinite dimensional Banach space X show that the maximal width of uniform but not absolute convergence coincides for Dirichlet series and for m-homogeneous Dirichlet polynomials. But a classical non-trivial fact fue to Bohnenblust and Hille shows that if X is one dimensional, this maximal width heavily depends on the degree m of the Dirichlet polynomials. We carefully analyze this phenomenon, in particular in the setting of l(p)-spaces.Both authors were supported by the MEC Project MTM2008-03211 The second author was partially supported by grants PR2007 0384 (MEC) and UPV PAID 00-07Defant, A.; Sevilla Peris, P.

La gestión del agua y el uso de contadores individuales en el área metropolitana de Sevilla
No full textResponsabilizar a los individuos de su propio consumo doméstico de agua es una de las
medidas utilizadas para reducir la creciente demanda de este recurso y conseguir un
consumo sostenible compatible con el objetivo de equidad. La utilización de contadores
individuales, en lugar de colectivos, o la tarificación por habitante y no por vivienda son
dos medidas encaminadas a conseguir dichos objetivos. En esta ponencia, se evalúan
estas medidas aplicadas en el aérea metropolitana de Sevilla en las dos últimas décadas

Conservación de la naturaleza y bienestar humano: el papel de la participación ciudadana en la transición socio-ecológica de la aglomeración urbana de Sevilla
No full textThis article summarizes part of the research carried out for the doctoral thesis under the title “Nature conservation and human welfare: the role of citizen participation in the socio-ecological transition of the urban aglomeration of Seville”, rea don May 2017 and whose main objective was to delve into the possibilities that an effective citizen participation has on the generation of transition processes towards territorial sustainability and equity: in the current context of systemic crisis, the role played by the different socioeconomic actors is very important for generating resilient cities and territories, since they are called to meet the challenges of these days with creativity, adaptability and imagination, generating alternative, sustainability-oriented projects. In this sense, this paper goes in depth into the theoretical and methodological frameworks supporting a research like this, oriented to reach a bigger deepening in the problems under investigation from the examination of ‘examples in action’ (Walker 1983) within the metropolitan area of Seville. In particular,
it will be highligthed the importance of a qualitative approach to obtain, collect and interpret data, where a phenomenological perspective is fundamental since human behaviour is the product of a
certain way of viewing and defining the world.En este artículo se recoge una síntesis del trabajo realizado para la Tesis Doctoral con título “Conservación de la naturaleza y bienestar humano: el papel de la participación ciudadana en la transición socio-ecológica de la aglomeración urbana de Sevilla”, leída en mayo de 2017 y cuyo
principal objetivo fue el de profundizar en las posibilidades que una participación ciudadana efectiva tiene en la generación de procesos de transición hacia la sostenibilidad y equidad territorial: en un contexto de crisis sistémica como el actual, el papel de los diferentes actores socio-económicos resulta fundamental para generar ciudades y territorios resilientes, en cuanto están llamados a responder con creatividad, adaptabilidad e imaginación a los desafíos de nuestra época, generando
proyectos alternativos, orientados hacia la sostenibilidad. En este sentido, la ponencia profundiza en el marco teórico y metodológico que respalda un trabajo de investigación de ese tipo, orientado en alcanzar una mayor profundización en la problemática objeto de estudio a partir del examen de unos ‘ejemplos en acción’ (Walker 1983) dentro del área metropolitana de Sevilla. En particular, se pondrá de manifiesto la importancia de un enfoque
cualitativo en la obtención, recolección e interpretación de los datos, en donde la perspectiva fenomenológica resulta fundamental al ser las conductas humanas el producto de una cierta forma de ver y definir el mundo
