Strong Convergence of a New Hybrid Iterative Scheme for Nonexpensive Mappings and Applications by Jie Jia, Khurram Shabbir, Khushdil Ahmad, Nehad Ali Shah, Thongchai Botmart

“…This new hybrid iterative scheme converges faster than all leading schemes like Picard-S∗ hybrid, Picard-S, Picard-Ishikawa hybrid, Picard-Mann hybrid, Thakur et al. and Abbas and Nazir, S-iterative, Ishikawa and Mann iterative schemes for contraction mapping. By using the Picard-Thakur hybrid iterative scheme, we can find the solution of delay differential equations and also prove some convergence results for nonexpansive mapping in a uniformly convex Banach space.…”

Nommer les lieux de la crise des opioïdes à Boston : un enjeu politique by Elsa Vivant

“…This paper analyses the different toponyms of an open drug use scene in Boston, located at the interface of three neighborhoods with contrasting uses and dynamics. The reactions and demands of the residents of these different neighbourhoods reveal the power relationships in the urban space, the toponymic choices of which are the main focus of the analysis: Mass & Cass refers to the urban, colonial and racial history of the city and prohibition; Methadone Mile recalls the stigmatisation of users and places of care; Recovery Road expresses the emergence of new care and harm reduction practices at work in this sector. …”

The Effect of Reactance on Satisfaction: A Study in the Context of Supplementary Health Care Systems by Diego Nogueira Rafael, Evandro Luiz Lopes

“…Data analysis, conducted through the macro PROCESS, indicated that the evaluation of supplementary health care providers is closely related to the level of individual reactance of the user and the way the plan is contracted.Furthermore, freedom of choice of the operator minimizes negative evaluations from individuals with high psychological reactance.…”

From Dumas fils’s Étrangère to Wilde’s Aventurière: French Theatrical Forerunners of the Wildean Female Dandy by Ignacio Ramos Gay

“…My aim is thus twofold: first to recognize the debt British playwrights contracted towards French drama and, secondly, to state that French theatrical stereotypes, even when being the main cause of native playwrights’ drowsiness, were also the first step towards the renaissance of English drama, as it can be observed throughout Oscar Wilde’s, Pinero’s, Gilbert’s and Jones’s dramaturgies.…”

THE NEED FOR DIVERSITY AND MANAGEMENT EFFICIENCY by A. V. Raychenko

“…The relevance of identifying this ratio increases dramatically with the development and implementation of digitalization management programs, which inevitably formalize, unify and ultimately limit the allocation, mobilization and use of impact resources. The most contrasted studied relationships are distinguished, analysed and evaluated using examples of the development and implementation of crisis management strategies and tactics, which are manifested in clear and widely discussed situations of domestic and foreign practice in the development, adoption and implementation of targeted impacts. …”
