In deze studie onderzoeken we of 2-3-jarigen in staat zijn te anticiperen op het gedrag van een personage door rekening te houden met wat dit personage wel of niet weet over de situatie. Het kind zit op schoot en krijgt animaties te zien met twee personages, waarbij de ene zich verstopt en de andere…

Regeneration is the ability of an organism to restore damaged or lost tissue with a functional replacement, and without scarring. Many lizards can regenerate their tails.

Plant-microbe interaction resulted in different physio/chemical responses by host plant and interacting rhizobacteria.

Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant hormone, which is involved in the defense responses to pathogens and to abiotic stress, and in the regulation of plant growth and development.

Classical statistical methods, such as p-values, are difficult for researchers to apply correctly. They for example do not allow drawing conclusions from a study early, or for extending a study with extra research groups that want to make their data available later.

This thesis is is made of three parts. The first part describes a generalization of the Chabauty's method, that can be used to determine the rational points of a curve such that s+g>r+1, where g is the genusof the curve, r is the rank of the Mordell-Weil group of the jacobian of the curve and s is…

Het boek biedt verschillende theoretische perspectieven om het proces van publieke sector hervormingen te onderzoeken. Daarnaast geeft het een overzicht van de belangrijkste trends in publieke sector hervormingen in Europa en de Verenigde Staten.

Femke Bakker, Hawks and Doves: Democratic Peace Theory Revisited

Professor Edwin Bakker, directeur van het Centrum voor Terrorisme & Contraterrorisme heeft zijn nieuwe boek getiteld 'Terrorism and Counterterrorism Studies: Comparing Theory and Practice' bij Leiden University Press uitgebracht.

Dit proefschrift richt zich op vragen over het doel van onderwijs en wat het betekent om opgeleid te zijn. Deze vragen zijn tijdloos, aangezien de antwoorden op deze vragen altijd in zekere mate verband houden met de hedendaagse samenleving.

Het onderzoek gaat over de vraag op welke wijze en op welk niveau studenten van de opleiding voor leraar basisonderwijs theorie en praktijk kunnen integreren en hoe de inrichting van hun leeromgeving, toegespitst op het vak rekenen-wiskunde en didactiek, daaraan kan bijdragen.

In this thesis we construct an extension associated with the Furstenberg compactification of symmetric space of noncompact type. From this extension we get a cycle in equivariant KK-theory representing the extension. The construction of the extension and the corresponding cycle is a generalization of…

Cognitive enhancement is het gebruik van elke methode of techniek met als doel het verbeteren van cognitieve prestaties.

Op 16 april 2020 verdedigde Andrew Fink zijn proefschrift 'The Importance of Conspiracy Theory in Extremist Ideology and Propaganda'. Het promotieonderzoek is begeleid door promotor prof.dr. A. Ellian.

This Thesis shows discoveries in non-linear astrochemical kinetics as well as a deeper analysis of dark clouds chemistry.

Drug induced organ toxicity is the main problem of the drug development and drug usage in the clinic. The liver and kidneys are the most sensitive organs towards drug induced toxicity.

We prove a p-adic version of the work by Gross and Zagier on the differences between singular moduli by proving a set of conjectures by Giampietro and Darmon, who investigated the factorisation of a rational invariant associated to a pair of CM-points on a genus zero Shimura curve, obtained as the ratio…

We show that Kirchhoff ’s law of conservation holds for non-commutative graph flows if and only if the graph is planar. We generalize the theory of (Euclidean) lattices to infinite dimension and consider the ring of algebraic integers as such a lattice.

One of the key limitations of the direct imaging of exoplanets at small angular separations are quasi-static speckles that originate from evolving non-common path aberrations (NCPA) to which the primary adaptive optics system is inherently blind. The main focus of this thesis is the development and…

In dit artikel presenteren Kellerman en Seddon een nieuw conceptueel kader waarin het concept van marktleesbaarheid centraal staat.

Op 12 mei 2020 verdedigde Darryl Robinson zijn proefschrift 'Exploring Justice in Extreme Cases: Criminal Law Theory and International Criminal Law'. Het promotieonderzoek is begeleid door promotor prof.dr. C. Stahn.

Arithmetic geometry concerns the number-theoretic properties of geometric objects defined by polynomials. Mathematicians are interested in the rational solutions to these geometric objects.

Ice, the solid state of water, plays an important role on our planet as well as the entire universe.Despite the fact that an individual water molecule has a very simple structure, its chemical bonding in the solid phase can be surprisingly complex.

Pectin is a plant cell wall polysaccharide made of mainly D-galacturonic acid (GA) subunits. The potency of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger to naturally secrete high amounts of pectinases to degrade pectin has been utilized for the industrial production of pectinases.

This thesis consists of three chapters, the first two of which concern division points of elements of the multiplicative group of a number field.

This thesis consists of three chapters. Each chapter is on a different subject. However, all three chapters address issues that arise in counting arithmetically interesting objects.

To gain more insight into the evolutionary development of orchid flowers and fruits, the orchid species Erycina pusilla was studied. The evolutionary origin of the median petaloid sepal, the callus on the labellum, and the stelidia was studied.

Soil is a home for an unbelievable diversity and abundance of microbial life that is essential for supporting life on our planet.

Climate change is a challenge for both current and future generations. New biological resources have to be developed in order to meet the demand for energy as well as the demand for food.

In populations with a seed-bank, individuals can temporarily become dormant and refrain from reproduction until they can become active again. The repository of all dormant individuals in the population is called the seed-bank. Seed-banks are observed in many taxa, including plants, bacteria and other…

This thesis studies the geometry of representation varieties and character stacks. These are spaces parametrizing the representations of a finitely generated group, typically the fundamental group of a compact manifold, into an algebraic group G.

The aromatic infrared bands (AIBs) seen throughout the interstellar medium (ISM) are generally thought to be carried by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their nitrogen analogues (PANHs).

Let A be a commutative algebraic group over a field K, and let G be a finitely generated subgroup of the K-rational points of A. The purpose of this thesis is to study the degrees of the Kummer extensions relative to A,K and G.

In this thesis, classes of strongly interacting quantum field theories, have been studied.

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…

The molecular mechanisms that instigate a healthy cell to become malignant are fueled by (epi)genetic alterations in so-called driver genes.

'Ik stond vorig jaar in Nature, ik was genomineerd voor de facultaire prijs voor docent van het jaar; het liet mijn kinderen allemaal koud. Maar als je simulaties in The Big Bang Theory verschijnen, dan is het ineens wat anders! ’ aldus Huib van Langevelde.

This thesis explores Breaking of Ensemble Equivalence (BEE) in random graph models by examining the spectral properties of adjacency matrices. The goal is to identify spectral characteristics that differentiate random graph ensembles, enhancing the understanding of complex network structures and beh…
