Unlocking Commercial Financing for Clean Energy in East Asia

By: Xiaodong Wang,Richard Stern,Dilip Limaye,Wolfgang Mostert,Yabei Zhang

This report draws lessons to date from recent international experience in applying public financing instruments to unlock commercial financing to scale-up clean energy in East Asia. It addresses the following issues: when to use public financing instruments; which instrument to select; and how to design and implement them most effectively.

Geometry of Manifolds with Non-negative Sectional Curvature

Editors: Rafael Herrera, Luis Hernández-Lamoneda

By: Owen Dearricott,Fernando Galaz-García,Lee Kennard,Catherine Searle,Gregor Weingart,Wolfgang Ziller

Providing an up-to-date overview of the geometry of manifolds with non-negative sectional curvature, this volume gives a detailed account of the most recent research in the area. The lectures cover a wide range of topics such as general isometric group actions, circle actions on positively curved four manifolds, cohomogeneity one actions on Alexandrov spaces, isometric torus actions on Riemannian manifolds of maximal symmetry rank, n-Sasakian manifolds, isoparametric hypersurfaces in spheres, contact CR and CR submanifolds, Riemannian submersions and the Hopf conjecture with symmetry. Also included is an introduction to the theory of exterior differential systems.

The South Atlantic

Present and Past Circulation

By: Gerold Wefer,Wolfgang H. Berger,Gerold Siedler,David J. Webb

The book presents results of recent projects in oceanography and marine geosciences (e.g. WOCE, JGOFS, PAGES, ODP) regarding present and past circulation in the South Atlantic. The objective of the book is to integrate results from both oceanographic and geological studies. As the connecting link between the Antarctic and the North Atlantic, the South Atlantic plays a crucial role with regard to the heat budget of the North Atlantic and to the biogeochemical budget of the global ocean. New results from studies of meridional water mass and heat transports are presented. The central theme of geological investigations is the reconstruction of current and productivity systems in the South Atlantic during the late Quaternary.

Lie Groups and Subsemigroups with Surjective Exponential Function

By: Karl Heinrich Hofmann,Wolfgang Ruppert

In the structure theory of real Lie groups, there is still information lacking about the exponential function. Most notably, there are no general necessary and sufficient conditions for the exponential function to be surjective. It is surprising that for subsemigroups of Lie groups, the question of the surjectivity of the exponential function can be answered. Under nature reductions setting aside the "group part" of the problem, subsemigroups of Lie groups with surjective exponential function are completely classified and explicitly constructed in this memoir. There are fewer than one would think and the proofs are harder than one would expect, requiring some innovative twists. The main protagonists on the scene are SL(2, R) and its universal covering group, almost abelian solvable Lie groups (ie. vector groups extended by homotheties), and compact Lie groups. This text will also be of interest to those working in algebra and algebraic geometry.

De Havilland DH.106 Comet

A Legends of Flight Illustrated History

By: Wolfgang Borgmann

This book is the perfect addition to the A Legends of Flight Illustrated History seriesAs the first jetliner operated in scheduled service, the de Havilland Comet is a very important aircraft type in airline history. It set the standards for modern air transport and is therefore a MUST for this book series

Periodic Locally Compact Groups

A Study of a Class of Totally Disconnected Topological Groups

By: Wolfgang Herfort,Karl H. Hofmann,Francesco G. Russo

This authoritative book on periodic locally compact groups is divided into three parts: The first part covers the necessary background material on locally compact groups including the Chabauty topology on the space of closed subgroups of a locally compact group, its Sylow theory, and the introduction, classifi cation and use of inductively monothetic groups. The second part develops a general structure theory of locally compact near abelian groups, pointing out some of its connections with number theory and graph theory and illustrating it by a large exhibit of examples. Finally, the third part uses this theory for a complete, enlarged and novel presentation of Mukhin’s pioneering work generalizing to locally compact groups Iwasawa’s early investigations of the lattice of subgroups of abstract groups. Contents Part I: Background information on locally compact groups Locally compact spaces and groups Periodic locally compact groups and their Sylow theory Abelian periodic groups Scalar automorphisms and the mastergraph Inductively monothetic groups Part II: Near abelian groups The definition of near abelian groups Important consequences of the definitions Trivial near abelian groups The class of near abelian groups The Sylow structure of periodic nontrivial near abelian groups and their prime graphs A list of examples Part III: Applications Classifying topologically quasihamiltonian groups Locally compact groups with a modular subgroup lattice Strongly topologically quasihamiltonian groups

Beyond Pentecostalism

The Crisis of Global Christianity and the Renewal of the Theological Agenda

By: Wolfgang Vondey

The Pentecostal Manifestos series aims to speak for and to a rising, outward-looking generation of Pentecostal scholarship. Written by both established and newly emerging scholars, the various "manifesto" volumes are to be creative statements, marked by rigorous theological scholarship, reflecting a distinctly Pentecostal engagement with wider themes and concerns in Christian thought today. --

From Opium To Methamphetamines: The Nine Lives Of The Drug Industry In Southeast Asia

By: Wolfgang Sachsenroder

Southeast Asia is one of the biggest marketplaces for illicit drugs. The international syndicates with their billion-dollar profits are similar to the Hydra of the old Greek mythology which grew two new heads if one was cut off. Hercules eventually killed the monster with the help of his nephew who cauterised the fresh wounds before new heads could emerge. This story describes quite well the challenging task for the political and police efforts to fight the narcotics industry which has a long history in Asia. From the early 1800s, the East India Company dumped Indian opium on China and ruined the economy of both countries. During the colonial heydays, Britain in Malaya and Burma, France in Indochina, and the Netherlands in today's Indonesia, financed big parts of their colonial budgets with opium. In the 20th century, heroin ruined countless lives in Southeast Asia and in the West.Today, synthetic drugs, especially methamphetamines, are produced in hidden laboratories in remote areas of the region and smuggled across the porous borders. Drug prevention programs and the harsh penalties in all ASEAN states have not reduced the drug trade and the consumption. On the contrary, both are growing.This book analyses the detrimental impact of the drug industry on the political economy and the social developments in Southeast Asia. Shortcomings and lasting damages can be traced in the political structures, in the rampant corruption, and the secretive links between customs, armies, police organisations, and organised crime.

Solving Discipline and Classroom Management Problems

By: Charles H. Wolfgang

In the seventh edition, teachers will find a wealth of information about classroom management strategies that have been proven successful in the field. Each model is introduced clearly and comprehensively. This includes vignettes, a glossary of terms, Teacher Behavior Continuum construct, and the strengths and limitations of each model. At the end of each chapter, a 15-point test is included to reinforce concepts. An Honorable Mention feature is also presented that describes other discipline models.
