How did colonial law work to turn people into property? This project argues that colonial ideas about households and domestic authority were critical to legal processes of enslavement in the early modern Dutch empire. Using colonial court records from Dutch Brazil, Suriname, and the Moluccas, the project…

In dit proefschrift worden de attitudes, kennis, noteringsvaardigheden en beredeneerde praktijken van Nederlandse leraren in het voortgezet onderwijs met betrekking tot cultureel responsief lesgeven in een multiculturele klascontext onderzocht.

Niels van Willigen (Instituut Politieke Wetenschap, Universiteit Leiden) plaatst de Nederlandse deelname aan VN vredesmissies in een historische context. Hij bekijkt de redenen voor een afname van de Nederlandse inbreng na 1990 en verkent de obstakels en mogelijkheden voor een ‘Nederlandse terugkeer’…

Politicologen Tom Louwerse, Simon Otjes en Cynthia van Vonno introduceren hun Dutch Parliamentary Behaviour Dataset, waarin zij het stemgedrag in de Tweede Kamer sinds 1945 beschikbaar maken voor onderzoek.

This project explores themes at the intersection of maritime history and environmental history by looking at the problems Dutch ships encountered in the different climates of the Atlantic and Indian Ocean worlds, and the solutions they could provide.

Waarom zijn niet alle kinderen even gevoelig voor variaties in hun sociale omgeving?

My PhD research is devoted to studies of the conjectural cluster-algebraic symmetry in the theory of topological string, which is the simplest, however already non-trivial sector in the theory of string.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the most abundant class of organic compounds in space. The PAH field evolves from the constant interaction between experimentalists, theorists, modellers and observers. While laboratory research and quantum chemical calculations together set up the molecular…

Shape and biological function are tightly connected. Physical descriptions are used to connect the shape of a biological system with its function.

This thesis deals with properties of Jacobians of genus two curves that cover elliptic curves.

This Thesis focuses on the design and synthesis of ADP-ribosylated compounds that can be applied in biological studies.

De masterspecialisatie Philosophical Perspectives on Politics and the Economy van de Universiteit Leiden was voorheen bekend onder de naam Philosophy, Politics and Economics.

This thesis mainly extends the theory of positive operators on Riesz spaces to a setting of pre-Riesz spaces.

In this thesis, we extend the concept of null models as canonical ensembles of multi-graphs with given constraints and present new metrics able to characterize real-world layered systems based on their correlation patterns.

Despite the history of studies on methanol formation from CO2, the dominant elementary reaction steps that constitute the chemical mechanism for this catalyzed process are not determined.

A management strategy has been developed for field margins to reduce pesticide drift to non-target areas and to promote biodiversity on arable land. To this end, 3 and 6 m wide strips along the edges of winter wheat, sugar beet and potato crops have been left unsprayed with herbicides and insecticides…

The parabolic Anderson model (PAM), which is the Cauchy problem for the heat equation with random potential. The PAM is a mathematical model that describes how mass (i.e. matter or energy) flows in a medium in the presence of a field of sources and sinks.

This thesis aimed to investigate the impact of exposure dynamics, relative contributions of ENPs(particle) and ENPs(ion), and dosing regimens on the toxicity of ENPs varying in different physico-chemical properties, on the composition and functioning of soil microbial communities.

A History of Dutch Corruption and Public Morality toont 300 jaar verandering, continuïteit en diversiteit in de geschiedenis van Nederlandse politieke corruptie en publieke moraliteit. Het analyseert een reeks corruptieschandalen en toont hoe de debatten daarover waren verbonden met de grote veranderingen…

Plants are colonized by an astounding number of microorganisms that can provide different life-support functions, including nutrient acquisition and protection against (a)biotic stresses like drought or pathogen attack.

In this thesis, rational points on K3 surfaces are studied. In the first part of Chapter 1 the Brauer group and the the Brauer-Manin obstruction are introduced.

Microbiome composition of the spermosphere and the rhizosphere of wild and modern bean accessions grown in an agricultural and a native soil from Colombia was characterized by metagenomics and cultivation-dependent approaches.

This thesis consists of three papers that are centered around the common theme of Hausdorff uo-Lebesgue topologies and convergence structures on vector lattices and on vector lattices and vector lattice algebras of order bounded operators.

This ecological community has long been known to affect host biology, and their diverse roles have been further clarified in recent years following numerous studies of animal:microbiota interactions in diverse systems.

Voltammetry plays a crucial role in modern scientific research by offering valuable insights into the electrochemical properties of materials, with wide-ranging applications in fields such as materials science, energy storage, corrosion studies, and sensor development.

Heterogeneous catalysis is one of the fundamental processes of modern life, being common in industrial refinery and hydrogen vehicles, all the way to the living cell. The dissociation of H2 on Cu(111) is an important benchmark system for studying heterogeneous catalysis, with a large and varied amount…

D2.2 comprises the in-depth legal analysis of the initial heuristic model, focused on addressing, in more detail, the main legal concerns for data reusers in the European data economy. This detailed analysis of the legal propositions presented in D2.1 is supplemented by an analysis of the technological,…

D1.2 reports on the findings of an analysis of framework conditions relevant in the context of the data economy from a legal, a socio-economic and a technological perspective. The analysis is a key foundation for the creation of an initial, heuristic model of the European data economy. The deliverable…

In this thesis we study the moduli space of genus g curves, and the differential forms that occur naturally on this moduli space.

In recent decades, climate change has led to more frequent and severe drought events, causing serious consequences such as increased forest mortality and significant crop yield losses. Understanding how drought affects plants, especially economically important herbaceous species, is crucial for predicting…

In surface science there is great effort to move from studying simple, flat model surfaces in vacuum to investigating more complex model catalysts in gas environments (in situ). This thesis gives three examples of such studies using microscopy and spectroscopy.
