Sommario/riassunto

In 1965 Penrose introduced the fundamental concept of a trapped surface, on the basis of which he proved a theorem which asserts that a spacetime containing such a surface must come to an end. The presence of a trapped surface implies, moreover, that there is a region of spacetime, the black hole, which is inaccessible to observation from infinity.  A major challenge since that time has been to find out how trapped surfaces actually form, by analyzing the dynamics of gravitational collapse. The present monograph achieves this aim by establishing the formation of trapped surfaces in pure general relativity through the focusing of gravitational waves.  The theorems proved in the present monograph constitute the first foray into the long-time dynamics of general relativity in the large, that is, when the initial data are no longer confined to a suitable neighborhood of trivial data. The main new method, the short pulse method, applies to general systems of Euler-Lagrange equations of hyperbolic type, and provides the means to tackle problems which have hitherto seemed unapproachable.  This monograph will be of interest to people working in general relativity, geometric analysis, and partial differential equations.

Sommario/riassunto

What does it mean to turn something into capital? What does considering things as assets entail? What does the prevalence of an investor’s viewpoint require? What is this culture of valuation that asks that we capitalize on everything? How can we make sense of the traits, necessities and upshots of this pervasive cultural condition?This book takes the reader to an ethnographic stroll down the trail of capitalization. Start-up companies, research centers, consulting firms, state enterprises, investment banks, public administrations: the territory can certainly prove strange and disorienting at first sight, with



its blurred boundaries between private appropriation and public interest, economic sanity and moral breakdown, the literal and the metaphorical, the practical and the ideological. The traveler certainly requires a resolutely pragmatist attitude, and a taste for the meanders of signification. But in all the sites in which we set foot in this inquiry we recognize a recurring semiotic complex: a scenario of valuation in which things signify by virtue of their capacity to become assets in the eye of an imagined investor.A ground-breaking anthropological investigation on the culture of contemporary capitalism, this work directs attention to the largely unexplored problem of capitalization and offers a critical resource for current debates on neoliberalism and financialization.

Sommario/riassunto

V monografii rassmatrivaetsja širokij spektr aktual'nych sociolingvističeskich voprosov. Central'noe mesto v ich rjadu zanimaet fundamental'naja problema funkcional'noj differenciacii etničeskogo jazyka, vchodjaščaja v sostav kompleksnoj problemy jazykovoj situacii. Konkretnaja issledovatel'skaja zadača, kotoruju avtor pytalsja rešit',



rabotaja nad dannoj monografiej, v samom obščem vide formuliruetsja kak makromodelirovanie stroenija etničeskogo jazyka, t.e. ustanovlenie obščej konfiguracii ego modeli, a takže organizujuščich ee principov.
