These departments play an essential role in ensuring patient safety and shaping the patient experience.
Large Deviations for Markov Chains
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1316511898 | 262 Pages | PDF | 3 MB
This book studies the large deviations for empirical measures and vector-valued additive functionals of Markov chains with general state space. Under suitable recurrence conditions, the ergodic theorem for additive functionals of a Markov chain asserts the almost sure convergence of the averages of a real or vector-valued function of the chain to the mean of the function with respect to the invariant distribution. In the case of empirical measures, the ergodic theorem states the almost sure convergence in a suitable sense to the invariant distribution. The large deviation theorems provide precise asymptotic estimates at logarithmic level of the probabilities of deviating from the preponderant behavior asserted by the ergodic theorems.
Debbie Felton, "Landscapes of Dread in Classical Antiquity: Negative Emotion in Natural and Constructed Spaces"
English | 2018 | pages: 317 | ISBN: 1138104957, 0367591200 | PDF | 7,5 mb
Over the last two decades, research in cultural geography and landscape studies has influenced many humanities fields, including Classics, and has increasingly drawn our attention to the importance of spaces and their contexts, both geographical and social: how spaces are described by language, what spaces are used for by individuals and communities, and how language, use, and the passage of time invest spaces with meaning. In addition to this 'spatial' turn in scholarship, recent years have also seen an 'emotive' turn - an increased interest in the study of emotion in literature.

Luxan, "LGBTQI+ in the Basque Country "
English | ISBN: 1949805255 | 2020 | 172 pages | EPUB | 579 KB
This collaboration between the Center for Basque Studies at the University of Nevada, Reno, and the Master's in Feminist and Gender Studies of the University of the Basque Country is the first English monograph on LGBTQI+ issues in relation to the Basque case. It addresses the existing void surrounding historical, legal, and political issues concerning this important topic, but it also tackles social and cultural aspects as well as problems and challenges of the LGBTQI+ collective in the Basque Country today. This book explores legislative issues, the mission of social movements and of their followers, and a historical perspective on lesbianism and homosexuality in the European context. Additionally, an attempt to understand bodies beyond binary categories has been made, and an examination of the cultural expressions through literary analysis. It is a snapshot, combining the perspectives of the academic researchers and the actual activists. It is, in essence, an invitation to continue to discuss, research, and write about matters concerning LGBTQI+.
