Calculation of the Hessian for the Log-Log Frequency Distribution
We calculate the diagonal entries of the Hessian for our log-log frequency models.
On a class of -convex functions.
In this paper we define a general class of α-convex functions with respect to a convex domain D contained in the right half plane by using a generalized Sălăgean operator introduced by F.M. Al-Oboudi in [5] and we give some properties of this class. 2000 Mathematical Subject Classification: 30C45
Time and Heritage
As a historian studying what can be considered a form of intellectual history, I have slowly come to adopt Michel de Certeau’s observation made at the end of the 1980s that ‘objectifying the past, for the last three centuries, has undoubtedly left unconsidered time within a discipline that has continued to use it as a taxonomic instrument’. To a certain degree, time has become commonplace for the historian who has preserved or instrumentalized it. It is not considered because it is inconceivable, but because we do not think of it or, more simply, we do not think about it. As a historian attempting to pay attention to the time I’m living in, I have thus, like many others, noticed the swift development of the category of the present until it has become obvious that the present is omnipresent. This is what I refer to here as ‘presentism’.
