The bonds of democratic politics
(2006-12-06)
This paper is an attempt to analyze bonds and their relevance within the confines of economics. They are discussed as both exogenous and endogenous variables. More specifically, the bonds of democratic politics are compared with those of non-democratic politics. It is argued that only those societies that have at their disposition certain kinds of bonds will be able to sustain democracy. It is further argued that the differential effects of democratic vs. non-democratic regimes on the respective bonds are rather weak. ...

Exact algorithms for p-adic fields and epsilon constant conjectures
(2006)
We develop several algorithms for computations in Galois extensions of p-adic fields. Our algorithms are based on existing algorithms for number fields and are exact in the sense that we do not need to consider approximations to p-adic numbers. As an application we describe an algorithmic approach to prove or disprove various conjectures for local and global epsilon constants.

On the Descriptional Complexity of Simple RL-Automata
(2006)
Analysis by reduction is a method used in linguistics for checking the correctness of sentences of natural languages.
This method is modelled by restarting automata. Here we study a new type of restarting automaton, the so-called t-sRL-automaton, which is an RL-automaton that is rather restricted in that it has a window of size 1 only, and that it works under a minimal acceptance condition.
On the other hand, it is allowed to perform up to t rewrite (that is, delete) steps per cycle.
We focus on the descriptional ...

Computation of locally free class groups
(2006)
We show that the locally free class group of an order in a semisimple algebra over a number field is isomorphic to a certain ray class group. This description is then used to present an algorithm that computes the
locally free class group. The algorithm is implemented in MAGMA for the case where the algebra is a group ring over the rational numbers.

Numerical simulation of tunnel fires using preconditioned finite volume schemes
(2006)
This article is concerned with the numerical simulation of flows at low Mach numbers which are subject to the gravitational force and strong heat sources. As a specific example for such flows, a fire event in a car tunnel will be considered in detail. The low Mach flow is treated with a preconditioning technique allowing the computation of unsteady flows, while the source terms for gravitation and heat are incorporated via operator splitting. It is shown that a first order discretization in space is not able to compute ...

Spacelike maximal surfaces in 3D Lorentz-Minkowski space
(2006)
We investigate spacelike maximal surfaces in 3-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space,
give an Enneper-Weierstrass representation of such surfaces and classify those with a Lorentzian or Euclidian rotation symmetry.

Wege zur Entdeckung von Communities in Folksonomies
(2006)
Ein wichtiger Baustein des neu entdeckten World Wide Web - des "Web 2.0" - stellen Folksonomies dar. In diesen Systemen können Benutzer gemeinsam Ressourcen verwalten und mit Schlagwörtern versehen. Die dadurch entstehenden begrifflichen Strukturen stellen ein interessantes Forschungsfeld dar. Dieser Artikel untersucht Ansätze und Wege zur Entdeckung und Strukturierung von Nutzergruppen ("Communities") in Folksonomies.
