The central object of the book is Q-curvature. This important and subtle scalar Riemannian curvature quantity was introduced by Tom Branson about 15 year ago in connection with variational formulas for determinants of conformally covariant differential operators. The book studies structural properties of Q-curvature from an extrinsic point of view by regarding it as a derived quantity of certain conformally covariant families of differential operators which are associated to hypersurfaces. The new approach is at the cutting edge of central developments in conformal differential geometry in the

Müller cells may be used in the future for novel therapeutic strategies to protect neurons against apoptosis (for example, somatic gene therapy), or to differentiate retinal neurons from Müller/stem cells. Meanwhile, a proper understanding of the gliotic responses of Müller cells in the diseased retina, and of their protective vs. detrimental effects, is essential for the development of efficient therapeutic strategies that use and stimulate the neuron-supportive/-protective - and prevent the destructive - mechanisms of gliosis.

This volume examines progress in the fields of life and earth sciences. It opens with a historical overview and goes on to describe the evolution of PPST authority and the evolution of PPST into a growing arsenal of interwoven diagnostic principles, tools, and techniques. Contents: - Historical Perspective- The Photoacoustic Effect in Photosynthesis- Time-Resolved Photothermal Studies with Biological Supramolecular Systems- Applications in Plant Physiology, Entomology and Microbiology; Gas Exchange Measurements Based upon Spectral Selectivity- Applications of Photoacoustic and Photothermal Non

The global market for oil and gas resources is rapidly changing. Three major trends - the rise of new consumers, the increasing influence of state players, and concerns about climate change - are combining to challenge existing regulatory structures, many of which have been in place for a half-century. "Global Energy Governance" analyzes the energy market from an institutionalist perspective and offers practical policy recommendations to deal with these new challenges. Much of the existing discourse on energy governance deals with hard security issues but neglects the challenges to global gove

As e-government applications are coming of age, security has been gradually becoming more demanding a requirement for users, administrators, and service providers. The increasingly widespread use of Web services facilitates the exchange of data among various e-government applications, and paves the way for enhanced service delivery. Secure E-Government Web Services addresses various aspects of building secure e-government architectures and services, and presents the views of experts from academia, policy, and the industry to conclude that secure e-government Web services can be deployed in an
