Free Download Susan R. Adams, "Race and Pedagogy: Creating Collaborative Spaces for Teacher Transformations "
English | ISBN: 1498511155 | 2016 | 120 pages | EPUB | 1333 KB
In the United States, higher rates of African Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans fail to graduate from high schools than Caucasians. Adams and Buffington-Adams identify persistent, institutional racism as the cause, and they stress the need for teachers to acknowledge the limitations of their own cultural lenses and to recognize the validity of others’ views. Race and Pedagogy provides a retrospective glance at the authors’ experiences within the Equity Group, an organization created to provide teachers with the opportunity to talk about their own racial, cultural, and language backgrounds in order to identify, examine, and fix the failings of the current educational system. Natural, relational, and sustainable approaches are recommended which will enable educators to create classrooms and schools in which all students, regardless of racial, ethnic, or linguistic identity, are welcomed, challenged, treasured, and able to be academically successful. Book recommended for scholars of education and race studies, as well as practitioners.

Free Download Julian Hook, "Exploring Musical Spaces: A Synthesis of Mathematical Approaches "
English | ISBN: 0190246014 | 2022 | 680 pages | PDF | 119 MB
Exploring Musical Spaces is a comprehensive synthesis of mathematical techniques in music theory, written with the aim of making these techniques accessible to music scholars without extensive prior training in mathematics. The book adopts a visual orientation, introducing from the outset a number of simple geometric models—the first examples of the musical spaces of the book’s title—depicting relationships among musical entities of various kinds such as notes, chords, scales, or rhythmic values. These spaces take many forms and become a unifying thread in initiating readers into several areas of active recent scholarship, including transformation theory, neo-Riemannian theory, geometric music theory, diatonic theory, and scale theory. Concepts and techniques from mathematical set theory, graph theory, group theory, geometry, and topology are introduced as needed to address musical questions. Musical examples ranging from Bach to the late twentieth century keep the underlying musical motivations close at hand. The book includes hundreds of figures to aid in visualizing the structure of the spaces, as well as exercises offering readers hands-on practice with a diverse assortment of concepts and techniques.

Free Download Variational Methods in Partially Ordered Spaces by Alfred Göpfert , Hassan Riahi , Christiane Tammer , Constantin Zǎlinescu
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 576 Pages | ISBN : 303136533X | 78.1 MB
In mathematical modeling of processes occurring in logistics, management science, operations research, networks, mathematical finance, medicine, and control theory, one often encounters optimization problems involving more than one objective function so that Multiobjective Optimization (or Vector Optimization, initiated by W. Pareto) has received new impetus. The growing interest in vector optimization problems, both from the theoretical point of view and as it concerns applications to real world optimization problems, asks for a general scheme which embraces several existing developments and stimulates new ones.

Free Download Jione Havea, "Troubling (Public) Theologies: Spaces, Bodies, Technologies "
English | ISBN: 1978714408 | 2023 | 238 pages | EPUB, PDF | 5 MB + 10 MB
Theologies, no matter their designations, are public measures-they disclose as well as gauge the publics (near and far) on which they stand, sit, lie, or fall. Because publics shift and mingle, theologies require reimagining, relocating, and embracing fresh insights and energies. The insights and energies embraced in this work are in three clusters: spaces, bodies, and technologies. The spotlighted spaces are in Africa, Asia, Black America, the Caribbean, and Pasifika-beyond the eyes of mainline theologies; the privileged bodies have survived, with scars from empire and missionary positionings; and the welcomed technologies include Dalit, indigenous, art, poetry, cyborg, and the novel. This collection is troubling in several ways: first, reimagining and relocating are troubling acts upon their subject matter-here, public theologies. On that note, what theology is not public? Second, this work takes theologies in general, and not just the theologies that carry the "public" designation, to be public theologies. Third, this work takes theologies in general to be inherently troubling. In other words, theologies that are not troubling are not public enough.

Free Download Jeanne Persuit, "Integrated Marketing Communication: Creating Spaces for Engagement"
English | ISBN: 1498540023 | 2016 | 198 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC) is a holistic approach to the areas of advertising, public relations, branding, promotions, event and experiential marketing, and related fields of strategic communication. Integrated Marketing Communication: Creating Spaces for Engagement explores how IMC can open up spaces for engagement in our classrooms and our communities. The breadth of the contributors is in the spirit of IMC, examining public and private sector organizations that offer products and services while relying on various methodologies and theoretical approaches, with particular emphasis on rhetoric, philosophy of communication, qualitative research, and historical perspectives in IMC. Moreover, each chapter considers IMC from a different communicative perspective, including strategic communication, philosophy of communication, rhetorical theory, health communication, crisis and risk communication, communication theory, and mass communication.

Free Download Function Spaces, Theory and Applications by Ilia Binder, Damir Kinzebulatov, Javad Mashreghi
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 487 Pages | ISBN : 3031392698 | 54.2 MB
The focus program on Analytic Function Spaces and their Applications took place at Fields Institute from July 1st to December 31st, 2021. Hilbert spaces of analytic functions form one of the pillars of complex analysis. These spaces have a rich structure and for more than a century have been studied by many prominent mathematicians. They also have several essential applications in other fields of mathematics and engineering, e.g., robust control engineering, signal and image processing, and theory of communication. The most important Hilbert space of analytic functions is the Hardy class H2. However, its close cousins, e.g. the Bergman space A2, the Dirichlet space D, the model subspaces Kt, and the de Branges-Rovnyak spaces H(b), have also been the center of attention in the past two decades. Studying the Hilbert spaces of analytic functions and the operators acting on them, as well as their applications in other parts of mathematics or engineering were the main subjects of this program. During the program, the world leading experts on function spaces gathered and discussed the new achievements and future venues of research on analytic function spaces, their operators, and their applications in other domains.

Free Download Analysis in Banach Spaces: Volume III: Harmonic Analysis and Spectral Theory by Tuomas Hytönen , Jan van Neerven , Mark Veraar , Lutz Weis
English | PDF (True) | 2023 | 839 Pages | ISBN : 3031465970 | 15.2 MB
This third volume of Analysis in Banach Spaces offers a systematic treatment of Banach space-valued singular integrals, Fourier transforms, and function spaces. It further develops and ramifies the theory of functional calculus from Volume II and describes applications of these new notions and tools to the problem of maximal regularity of evolution equations. The exposition provides a unified treatment of a large body of results, much of which has previously only been available in the form of research papers. Some of the more classical topics are presented in a novel way using modern techniques amenable to a vector-valued treatment. Thanks to its accessible style with complete and detailed proofs, this book will be an invaluable reference for researchers interested in functional analysis, harmonic analysis, and the operator-theoretic approach to deterministic and stochastic evolution equations.

Free Download Texture Spaces
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031397479 | 360 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 24 MB
This book provides a complete framework for the fundamental concepts and results of texture spaces and its applications. The principal aim is to present a comprehensive arguments due to connections among the textures, fuzzy sets and rough sets. In this context, direlations, fuzzy direlations and fuzzy relations constitute a bridge for the remarkable observations on rough set theory. In a more general setting, the approximation operators are also inspected for fuzzy rough set models with two domains of discourse.
