Sommario/riassunto

This book presents a new front of research in conformal geometry, on sign-changing Yamabe-type problems and contact form geometry in particular. New ground is broken with the establishment of a Morse lemma at infinity for sign-changing Yamabe-type problems. This family of problems, thought to be out of reach a few years ago, becomes a



family of problems which can be studied: the book lays the foundation for a program of research in this direction. In contact form geometry, a cousin of symplectic geometry, the authors prove a fundamental result of compactness in a variational problem on Legrend

1. Background and the Making of Revolutionary Committees -- 2. Construct of Revolutionary Committees and Mode of Governance -- 3.



Assessments of Modes of Governance in Historical and Future Perspectives.

Sommario/riassunto

This book analyzes Revolutionary Committees during the Cultural Revolution period in the People's Republic of China. It aims to draw serious scholarly attention to, and bring about an impartial assessment of, the events in this period independent of partisan hysteria. The project explains what the Revolutionary Committee was composed of, how it formed, and how it differed from the pre- and post-Cultural Revolution governance institutions.
