Fast-paced economic growth in Southeast Asia from the late 1960s until the mid-1990s brought increased attention to the overseas Chinese as an economically successful diaspora and their role in this economic growth. Events that followed, such as the transfer of Hong Kong and Macau to the People's Republic of China, the election of a non-KMT government in Taiwan, the Asian economic crisis and the plight of overseas Chinese in Indonesia as a result, and the durability of the Singapore economy during this same crisis, have helped to sustain this attention. The study of the overseas Chinese has by now become a global enterprise, raising new theoretical problems and empirical challenges. New case...
This book contains the papers presented at the ICM2002 Satellite Conference on Nonlinear Evolution Equations and Dynamical Systems. About 50 mathematicians and scientists attended the meeting — including E Witten (IAS), C Nappi (Princeton), K Khanin (Cambridge), D Phong (Columbia), d'Hoker (UCLA) and Peng Chiakuei (CAS). The book covers several fields, such as nonlinear evolution equations and integrable systems, infinite-dimensional algebra, conformal field theory and geometry.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:• Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)
A first introduction to the theory of discrete integrable systems at a level suitable for students and non-experts.
Vols. for 1963- include as pt. 2 of the Jan. issue: Medical subject headings.
This volume is a special issue which is devoted to selected papers from the 10th Taiwan-Philippines Symposium on Analysis (10th TPSOA) held on 31/March–3/April 2014 at the Garden Villa Hotel, Kaohsiung city, Taiwan and organized mainly by National University of Kaohsiung. The article on page 311 has listed the bilateral participants of Taiwan and the Philippines for the 10 symposiums. The symposiums have brought together mathematicians from the Philippines and Taiwan to share their results and current research activities.
This volume contains a collection of papers that focus on recent research in the broad field of special functions. The articles cover topics related to differential equations, dynamic systems, integrable systems, billiards, and random matrix theory. Linear classical special functions, such as hypergeometric functions, Heun functions, and various orthogonal polynomials and nonlinear special functions (e.g., the Painlev‚ transcendents and their generalizations), are studied from different perspectives. This volume serves as a useful reference for a large audience of mathematicians and mathematical physicists interested in modern theory of special functions. It is suitable for both graduate students and specialists in the field.
Contained Empowerment and the Liminal Nature of Feminisms and Activisms examines the processes by which activist successes are limited and outlines a theoretical framing of the liminal and temporal limits to social justice efforts as “contained empowerment.” With a focused lens on the third wave and contemporary forms of feminism, the author investigates feminist activity from the early 1990s through responses and reactions to the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022 and contrasts these efforts with anti-feminist, white supremacist, and other structural normalizing efforts designed to limit and repress women's, gendered, and reproductive rights. This book includes analyses of celebrity activism, girl power, transnational feminist NGOs, digital feminisms, and the feminist mimicry applied by practitioners of neo-liberal and anti-feminism. Victoria A. Newsom concludes that the contained nature of feminist empowerment illustrates how activists must engage directly with intersectional challenges and address the multiplicities of structural oppressions in order to breach containment.
