- 1. Scalar and Vectorial Allen-Cahn Equations and their Asymptotics -- 2. Microstructures in the Modelling of Shape-Memory Alloys: Rigidity, Flexibility and Scaling -- 3. Singular Minimizers in Nonlinear Elasticity.

Sommario/riassunto

This book presents three short courses on topics at the intersection of Calculus of Variations, PDEs and Material Science, based on lectures given at the CIME summer school “Variational and PDE Methods in Nonlinear Science”, held in Cetraro (Italy), July 10–14, 2023. Fabrice



Bethuel discusses aympototics for Allen–Cahn systems, providing an overview of classical methods and tools for the scalar case and further results for the two-dimensional vectorial case. An alternate monotonicity formula is described, and the still open parabolic vectorial case is considered. Angkana Rüland considers the modelling and analysis of microstructures in shape-memory alloys, including material on quasiconvexity, differential inclusions, rigidity of the two-well problem under BV-regularity assumptions, and recent results on the quantitative dichotomy between rigidity and flexibility. Duvan Henao focuses on existence theory in nonlinear elasticity, where a central role is played by the Jacobian determinant. The methods developed have implications for the analysis of magnetoelasticity and nematic elastomers. The volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers interested in the applications of PDEs and the calculus of variations to the theory of phase transitions, fluid dynamics, materials science, and elasticity theory.

Sommario/riassunto

The essays collected in this book were delivered at the XLII Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies, held in London in 2009 to accompany the exhibition Byzantium 330-1453, at the Royal Academy. The exhibition was one of the most ambitious and complex exhibitions ever mounted at the Royal Academy, as well as one of the most popular, and the overall aim of the book is to reflect on the exhibition of Byzantine art, both as an academic and popular exercise, and through the choice and discussion of individual objects. Exhibitions present a very different picture of Byzantium and its culture from works of history. The choices of object for display, their arrangement, and the underlying aims of exhibition curators and designers mean that every exhibition presents a different picture of Byzantium. Particular emphases can be placed, whether on everyday life or high court culture; Constantinople or the provinces; or claims of continuity or change over the Byzantine millennium. The essays explore aspects of the image of Byzantium that results from these choices. Given the enormous popularity of exhibitions of Byzantine objects (continued after the completion of this volume by exhibitions in Paris, Bonn and Istanbul), art has become one of the most popular and accessible means of popularizing Byzantium to a wide public audience. Hitherto there has been no general consideration of either the historiography of Byzantine exhibitions or the ways in which they have been set up to present different aspects of Byzantine culture to an academic and general public. The essays are divided into 3 sections: Exhibiting Byzantium sets the 2009 exhibition into the context of other exhibitions of Byzantine art and considers the issues involved in curating and viewing such major collections of medieval art; Object Lessons offers a set of studies of individual objects that were in the exhibition; Byzantium through its Art moves to consider Byzantine art more widely, thinking about the different ways in which objects can be used to study Byzantine culture and society. These are preceded by an introduction by the editors which sets the volume in context.

Sommario/riassunto

Learn to balance the professional demands of your ministry with your personal needsNo amount of research, study, or planning can prepare pastoral care givers for the stress placed on their personal lives by the demands of their ministries. But Grief, Loss, and Death: The Shadow Side of Ministry can help anyone involved in pastoral counseling close the gap between their professional and personal needs, encouraging them to use the stress, loss, and grief that accompanies pastoral care giving as opportunities to humanize their ministries and reaffirm their faith.
