Deux extensions de Théorèmes de Hamburger (portant sur l'équation fonctionnelle de la fonction dzêta)

We propose two types of extensions to Hamburger’s theorems on the Dirichlet series with functional equation like the one of the Riemann zeta function, under weaker hypotheses. This builds upon the dictionary betweeen the moderate meromorphic functions with functional equation and the tempered distributions with extended S-support condition.

Financement et autonomie fiscale de la Catalogne: Deux décénnies de problèmes non résolus

From the perspective of redistributing income fromrich to poor, equalizing intergovernmental grants are bound to have some perverse effects. For suchgrants, although transfering income from wealthy topoor on average, will inevitably result in some incometransfers from poor individuals who reside in wealthyjurisdictions to rich persons in generally poor areas.

Deux réminiscences des Catilinaires chez Saint Jerôme et Saint Augustin

Two reminiscences from the Cicero's speeches against Catiline in the letters of St Jerome and St Augustine.

Análisis comparativo de la eficiencia de las cooperativas fruteras de la provincia de Lleida

En este trabajo se describen algunas actuaciones llevadas a cabo en el sector frutero leridano de cara a la concentración de oferta y la creación de las cooperativas de segundo grado. A continuación se analizan las acciones adoptadas por una entidad de segundo grado, de la provincia, que es la que ha conseguido integrar a un mayor número de entidades. Seguidamente se analiza comparativamente el grado de eficiencia técnica y económica que presentan las cooperativas asociadas a la entidad de segundo grado en contraposición a las que no han ejercido la opción de asociarse. En el periodo analizado no aparecen grandes diferencias entre los niveles de eficiencia obtenidos por ambos grupos de entidades.

Genetic variation for carbon isotope composition in Juglans regia L.: relationships with growth, phenology and climate of origin

Among the traits of breeding interest for the common walnut tree Juglans regia L., characteristics such as timing of budbreak and leaf fall, water-use efficiency and growth performance are regarded as being of utmost relevance in Mediterranean conditions. The authors evaluated intraspecific variation in $\delta$13C (carbon isotope composition, surrogate of intrinsic water-use efficiency, WUE$_{\rm i}$) for 22 J. regia families grown in a progeny test under supplementary irrigation, and investigated whether such variation correlated with climatic indicators of native habitats. The genetic relationships between $\delta$13C, growth and phenology were also assessed during two consecutive years. Overall, the most water-use-efficient families (i.e. with higher $\delta$13C), which originated mainly from drought-prone provenance regions which have a high vapour pressure deficit and low rainfall, exhibited less height growth and smaller DBH. Using a stepwise regression procedure, $\delta$13C was included as the main explanatory variable of genotypic variation in growth traits, together with growing season duration (for DBH in both years) and flushing (for height in 2007). It was concluded that WUE$_{\rm i}$ is largely unconnected to phenology effects in the explanation of growth performance for J. regia, therefore suggesting the opportunity of simultaneously selecting for low WUE$_{\rm i}$ and extended growing period to maximise productivity in non-water-limited environments.

"Pas de deux" : Quan dansa i gènere comparteixen escenari

The dissertation '«Pas de deux». When dance and gender' share stage treats of the impact and the repercussion that have had the fight for the equality women-men and the studies of gender in the practice and in the historiography of dance. It bases in the study of new, classical and recognised bibliographic references on gender and dance, anthropology of dance and history and practice of dance.
