Measuring and analyzing German and Spanish customer satisfaction of using the iPhone 4S Mobile Cloud service
No full textThis paper presents the customer satisfaction analysis for measuring popularity in the Mobile Cloud, which is an emerging area in the Cloud and Big Data Computing. Organizational Sustainability Modeling (OSM) is the proposed method used in this research. The twelve-month of German and Spanish consumer data are used for the analysis to investigate the return and risk status associated with the ratings of customer satisfaction in the iPhone 4S Mobile Cloud services. Results show that there is a decline in the satisfaction ratings in Germany and Spain due to economic downturn and competitions in the market, which support our hypothesis. Key outputs have been explained and they confirm that all analysis and interpretations fulfill the criteria for OSM. The use of statistical and visualization method proposed by OSM can expose unexploited data and allows the stakeholders to understand the status of return and risk of their Cloud strategies easier than the use of other data analysis

A Norwegian grey zone: Knut Rød, Victor Lind and 'The crucial year, 1942'
No full textThis article uses Primo Levi’s concept of “the grey zone” to explore Knut Rød’s involvement in the transfer of 532 Norwegian Jews from Oslo to Auschwitz in 1942. Rød, the police chief in charge of the operation, was subsequently exonerated of any crime on the grounds that he had simultaneously used his position to help members of Milorg – the Norwegian Resistance. The legal and moral basis of this verdict has been questioned by the artist Victor Lind in a series of artworks, including his “countermonument” The Perpetrator (2005)

Points de Stark-Heegner et fonctions L p-adiques
No full textLet K|Q be a number field and let ζK(s) be its associated complex L-function. The analytic class number formula relates special values of ζK(s) with algebraic invariants of the field K itself. It admits a Galois equivariant refinement known as Stark conjectures. We have a very similar picture in the case of elliptic curves. Let E/Q be an elliptic curve and let L(E/Q, s) be its associated complex L-function. The conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer relates the behaviour of L(E/Q, s) at s = 1 to the structure of rational solutions of the equation defined by E. The equivariant Birch and Swinnerton- Dyer conjecture is obtained including in the picture the action of Galois groups. The elliptic Stark conjecture formulated by H. Darmon, A. Lauder and V. Rotger purposes a p-adic analogue of the equivariant Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, under several assumption. In their paper, the authors formulate the conjecture and prove it in some cases of good reduction of E at p using Garrett-Hida method and performing a factorization of p-adic L-functions. In this dissertation we focus on the elliptic Stark conjecture and we show how it is possible to extend the result of Darmon, Lauder and Rotger. In the case of good reduction of E at p we can slightly extend the result using Hida- Rankin method. This method also gives us a better control of the constants appearing in the result, thus yielding an explicit formula which contains invariants associated with the elliptic curve. To achieve the proof we mimic the main result of Darmon, Lauder and Rotger in our setting and we make use of a p-adic Gross-Zagier formula which relates special values of the Bertolini-Darmon-Prasanna p-adic L-function to Heegner points. In a second moment we extend both our result and Darmon-Lauder-Rotger result to the case of multi- plicative reduction of E at p. In this setting we cannot use Bertolini- Darmon Prasanna p-adic L-function due to some technical reasons. In order to avoid the problem we consider Castellà’s two variables p-adic L-function. We use both Garrett-Hida method and Hida-Rankin method. In the two cases we obtain formulae which are similar to those of the good reduction setting.Soit K|Q un corps de nombres et soit ζK(s) sa fonction L complexe associée.

Ensuite on voit comment étendre notre résultat et celui de Darmon-Lauder-Rotger au cas où E a réduction multiplicative en p. Dans ce cadre, on ne peut pas utiliser la fonction L p-adique de Bertolini-Darmon-Prasanna en raison de problèmes techniques. Pour éliminer cette difficulté on consid`ere la fonction L p-adique de Castellà.

On the elliptic Stark conjecture at primes of multiplicative reduction
No full textIn [DLR], Darmon, Lauder, and Rotger formulated a p-adic elliptic Stark conjecture for the twist of an elliptic curve E/Q by the self-dual tensor product ¿ ¿ of two odd and two-dimensional Artin representations. These authors provided abundant numerical evidence and proved the conjecture in the special setting where p is a prime of good reduction for E and ¿ and ¿2 are induced from finite-order characters ¿, ¿ of the same imaginary quadratic field. The key step in their proof is a factorization of one-variable p-adic L-functions, where ¿ varies in a p-adic family of Hecke characters. The main goal of this article is to prove a new case of the conjecture, placing ourselves in the setting where p is a prime of multiplicative reduction for E. In order to achieve our theorem, we need to work with two-variable p-adic L-functions, where the weight 2 cusp form associated with E also moves independently along a Hida family. Our main result then follows from a factorization of p-adic L-series extending to two variables the one obtained in [DLR]. On the way we also generalize to our setting the results obtained in [CR].Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
