• Sommario/riassunto: This book contains inspiring reflections that demonstrate how applied design research offers an inspiring and effective approach to combining the unique qualities of research and design. The book shows that the transdisciplinary approach is applicable in a multitude of sectors, ranging from healthcare, urban planning, circular economy, and the food industry. Arranged in five parts, the book is a mosaic of examples, experiences, and interpretations, giving different illustrative examples and describing different methods which makeup the characteristic of a mosaic in that each piece contributes to the whole, but none of the pieces contains all the information.

• Sommario/riassunto: The author analyzes the abstract structure of algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field K. For K of characteristic zero and G a given connected affine algebraic \overline{\mathbb Q}-group, the main ; theorem describes all the affine algebraic \overline{\mathbb Q} -groups H such that the groups H(K) and G(K) are isomorphic as abstract groups. In the same time, it is shown that for any two connected algebraic \overline{\mathbb Q} -groups G and H, the elementary equivalence of the pure groups G(K) and H(K) implies that they are abstractly isomorphic. In the final section, the author applies his results to characterize the connected algebraic groups, all of whose abstract automorphisms are standard, when K is either \overline {\mathbb Q} or of positive characteristic. In characteristic zero, a fairly general criterion is exhibited.
