Den svenska aktiemarknaden har under senare år utvecklats till att innehålla fler aktiva aktörer, och värdet på aktier noterade på svenska marknadsplatser har ökat markant. I takt med en ökad aktivitet har vi även sett en ökning of- fentliga uppköpserbjudanden och därmed även sådana av fientligt slag. Fient- liga uppköpserbjudanden tar formen av ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande, men med avvikelsenIn recent years, the Swedish stock market has developed to include more ac- tive players, and the value of shares listed on Swedish marketplaces has in- creased significantly. Along with increased activity, we have also seen an in- crease in public takeover offers and thus also those of a hostile nature. Hostile takeover offers take the form of a public takeover offer, but with the exception that

The European Union boasts free movement of workers as one of its fundamental freedoms for all citizens. However, this freedom does not exist free from controversy or challenging issues. Professional workers raise unique problems when considering the exercise of this freedom. Member States in which the professionals wish to practice are reasonably concerned with assuring that the professionals prac

Uppsatsen undersöker om det finns en skyldighet för stater att inte erkänna utländska barnäktenskap samt om barnäktenskap är förbjudna genom slaveri, träldom eller ’servile marriage’. Granskningen konstaterar att det saknas en enhetlig definition för vem som är ett barn, vad som utgör ett barnäktenskap och när mognad infinner sig för att fritt samtycka till ett äktenskap. Förbudet mot slaveri inkThe thesis examines whether there is an obligation for states to not recognise foreign child marriages and whether child marriages are prohibited through the prohibitions against slavery, servitude or servile marriage. The review finds that there is no uniform definition for who is a child, what constitutes a child marriage and when one is mature enough to freely consent to marriage. The definiti

The growing world population will demand an increase in agriculture production to sustain the consumption of food and demands for bioenergy. Nevertheless, negative impacts on crop production have been observed due to effects of climate change, which threatens our ability to sustain future demands. Yield reductions due to warmer conditions and more frequent extreme weather events were increasingly

The quasi-stationary state characterizing the saturation of a single-pass free-electron laser is governed by the Vlasov equation obtained by performing the continuum limit of the Colson-Bonifacio model. By means of a statistical treatment, this approach allows to predict analytically the saturated laser intensity as well as the final electron-beam energy distribution. In this paper we consider the

In recent years the number of disorders known to affect amino acid synthesis has grown rapidly. Nor is it just the number of disorders that has increased: the associated clinical phenotypes have also expanded spectacularly, primarily due to the advances of next generation sequencing diagnostics. In contrast to the “classical” inborn errors of metabolism in catabolic pathways, in which elevated lev

Serine deficiency disorders are rare defects in the biosynthesis of the amino acid L-serine. At present two disorders have been reported: 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase deficiency and 3-phosphoserine phosphatase deficiency. These enzyme defects lead to severe neurological symptoms such as congenital microcephaly and severe psychomotor retardation and in addition in patients with 3-phosphoglycera

Why should we teach tourism at universities?This presentation targets the question of why tourism should be part of university education. Presently, this is questioned by colleagues in traditional academic disciplines as well as by parts of the tourism industry, which are somewhat reluctant to employ people with a university degree. It is thus time for this matter to be raised. If we are to answer

In this paper we address a sensitivity problem with financial applications. Namely the study of price variations of different contingent claims in the Black-Scholes model due to changes in volatility. This study needs an extension of the classical Vega index, i.e. the price derivative with respect to the constant volatility, which we call the local Vega index (lvi). This index measures the importa

Glycoproteins in cerebrospinal fluid are found to be altered in Alzheimer patients compared to healthy control individuals. We have utilized micro-solution isoelectric focusing and affinity chromatography, prior to gel electrophoresis to enable site-specific structural determination of the N-linked glycans in apolipoprotein J with the use of FT-ICR MS. The albumin depletion method is the most suit

This paper gives an account of Colin McGinn's essay: "Can We Solve the Mind-Body Problem?". McGinn's answer to his own essay title is that the problem is forever beyond us due to the particular nature of our cognitive abilities. The present author offers a number of criticisms of the arguments which support this conclusion

This article summarizes the major perspectives from our research, emphasizing how young citizens can use the Internet to create their identities as active citizens and engender new forms of civic cultures
