Summary Using Mizar [1], in the context of a real vector space, we introduce the concept of affine ratio of three aligned points (see [5]). It is also equivalent to the notion of “Mesure algèbrique”1, to the opposite of the notion of Teilverhältnis2 or to the opposite of the ordered length-ratio [9]. In the second part, we introduce the classic notion of “cross-ratio” of 4 points aligned in a real vector space. Finally, we show that if the real vector space is the real line, the notion corresponds to the classical notion3 [9]: The cross-ratio of a quadruple of distinct points on the real line with coordinates x1, x2, x3, x4 is given by: $$({x_1},{x_2};{x_3},{x_4}) = {{{x_3} - {x_1}} \over {{x_3} - {x_2}}}.{{{x_4} - {x_2}} \over {{x_4} - {x_1}}}$$ In the Mizar Mathematical Library, the vector spaces were first defined by Kusak, Leonczuk and Muzalewski in the article [6], while the actual real vector space was defined by Trybulec [10] and the complex vector space was defined by Endou [4]. Nakasho and Shidama have developed a solution to explore the notions introduced by different authors4 [7]. The definitions can be directly linked in the HTMLized version of the Mizar library5. The study of the cross-ratio will continue within the framework of the Klein- Beltrami model [2], [3]. For a generalized cross-ratio, see Papadopoulos [8].

Different Cultures

Every culture has some standard of right and wrong. This is not fully discovered in a people's behavior, our author reminds us, but in their ideals. These ideals may, in essence, closely parallel the Decalogue; but this essence may be applied with widely varying emphases in the real life situations of different cultures. If the missionary, jealous for the essence of God's righteous demands, relies too heavily on the applications and emphases of his own culture, he may experience little conviction of sin in his hearers — and confused standards in the emerging church. Fully recognizing the dilemma this imposes on the cross-cultural witness, linguist-translator Dye finds hope and help in an ethnotheological approach to the problem.

25 Background: NCRT followed by surgery per the CROSS trial regimen is an accepted standard of care in the treatment of EC and GEJC. When treatments are used in the real-world setting, there are often patient, treatment and potential outcome differences compared to the original clinical trial. The study aim was to assess the real-world application and outcomes of the CROSS trial protocol. Methods: A retrospective chart review was undertaken of 83 patients (pts) with EC or GEJC who were treated from June 2012 to June 2018 with CRT. 65 pts were with NCRT intent to proceed to surgery. Pts’ demographics, clinical, pathological, treatment and surgical characteristics were assessed and exploratory analyses were conducted to review these factors and outcomes. Analyses included Chi-square, t-tests and Kaplan-Meier. Results: For pts who underwent NCRT (n = 65): median age was 68 yrs (range 52-80), male 79%, adenocarcinoma 82%, median (m) tumor length 5 cm, GERD 43%, clinical stage II/III 95%, and BMI > 30 in 37%. 80% completed CRT with RT ≥ 41.4 Gy; of these 88% had ≥ 50.4 Gy. Delay/interruption in chemotherapy occurred in 46% and in RT 37%. Pts who underwent surgery were younger (p = 0.04) and weighed more (p = 0.05). mOS was 37 months (M) v 14 M in those who started CRT ≤ 8 weeks (w) from diagnosis v > 8 w (p = 0.10). The median time from CRT to surgery was 8.9 w. 40 pts had surgery with a complete response in 38% and a R0 resection in 98%. Postoperative major and minor complications occurred in 67%. Those < 75 yrs v ≥ 75 yrs had a mOS of 32 M v 15 M respectively (log rank p = 0.46). 25 pts did not get surgery; 28% was due to death/progression. Pts who proceeded to surgery had a mOS of 35 M v 12 M in pts who did not go to surgery (log rank p = 0.002). Further correlative outcome data will be presented. Conclusions: Real-world data in our center showed patient, tumor and treatment differences compared to the CROSS trial protocol. Despite the broadening of eligibility and treatment criteria, survival in a single institution setting is maintained with trimodality therapy compared to NCRT alone. Real-world data is of value in the assessment of therapeutic validity of clinical trial data.

Luther’s leading theological idea, the theology of the cross, is based on his distinctive view of God’s love and its relationship to suffering and evil. Luther argues that God’s actions in the world are ‘crossformed’. The new Finnish Luther interpretation offers methodologically and thematically fresh perspectives on Luther’s understanding of God’s love and its relation to human love and to evil. The idea of the ‘real’ presence of Christ in the believer receives special highlight. On the basis of these considerations, this essay attempts to open up new perspectives for Evangelical theology on the problem of evil and God’s love.

Even though the theme discussed in this paper is the Covid-19 pandemic, the real background is the world that behind the Covid-19 pandemic, namely, civilization which today has filled with fear, conspiracy, group interests, indifference and injustice. They are actually caused by the humans themselves. Based on this context, the author tries to show that the Covid-19 pandemic is not only a disaster but also an opportunity to lead for a new civilization of global solidarity in the world. Using the literature method (library research), this research was conducted by, first, reading the phenomenon about Covid-19 from the literature. Second, comparing it with central areas in life, and third, draws normative ethical implication which is global solidarity and theological implications in faith inspires a global solidarity movement, especially for Christians, rests on the cross and the resurrection. Keywords: Covid-19; Civilization; Normative-Ethical Implication; Theological Implication; Global Solidarity.

Abstract The title of this research is “The debtor’s property selling in the cross-border insolvency proceedings”. The insolvency proceeding gets the cross-border status also in case, if a debtor is an owner of the property outside of the main interests’ centre, namely, in another country. Therefore, there are many problematic cases when insolvency administrator (also called insolvency practitioner) defines the real estate in this other country and has to make a decision concerning the methods of selling the real estate in accordance with the law of the Member State in which territory the insolvency proceedings have been started. At the same time, the administrator shall provide that the property is sold in particular with regard to procedures for the realization of assets defined in the legislation of that country, where such real estate has been located. The article’s aim is to give a view of the features of the sale of the property in the insolvency proceedings and to define the possible lack and improvements in the cross-border insolvency concerning the selling of a debtor’s property. The European Parliament and the Council of the European Union has adopted Regulation (EU) 2015/848 of 20 May 2015 on Insolvency proceedings, which shall apply from 26 June 2017, with some exceptions Despite the regulation of the cross-border insolvency has been improved, the procedure of the property disposal is still incomplete in the cross-border insolvency proceedings. Within the study the following research methods are applied: the analytical method, comparative method, sociological method and descriptive method. The predicted value of the research is theoretical and also practical. The research should be useful for the insolvency proceedings administrators, the companies and the banks, other experts involved in the cross-border insolvency proceedings, as well as for students to improve their theoretical knowledge about the cross-border insolvency.

Abstract This work simulate the raised Cosine impulse function with Hamming grating profile based chirp Bragg grating fiber. The transmittivity/reflectivity, the grating ref index of the chirp grating fiber variations, real/imaginary coupling coefficient variations and the cross section monitor of the mesh transmission variations are simulated and clarified versus the length of grating. The transmission/reflection spectrum, input grating pulse width intensity spectrum, and the output grating pulse width intensity against the grating wavelength are demonstrated clearly. All the obtained results are demonstrated with the OptiGrating simulation software version 12. The transmittivity/reflectivity of chirp grating fiber, the grating ref index of chirp grating fiber, the cross section monitor of the mesh transmission and the real/imaginary coupling coefficient variations are simulated and demonstrated against the grating performance parameters.
