Lump Sum Contracts

This latest edition of The Red Book has been the subject of a detailed review and takes into account users' experiences and the latest thinking in project execution in the process industries. Legislation - such as the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 and the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 and the Courts' interpretation of the legislation is covered. The guidance section is separated into two parts with Section I providing specific guidance on completing the Contract Agreement and Section 2 discussing general issues to aid understanding, highlighting areas where special conditions may need to be written for the user's requirements. Suitable for use in lump sum contracts in a wide range of industries, particularly those where a high technical input is required in the design and construction and where a proven system or service is required for the completed project.

A Bayesian Analysis of QCD Sum Rules

The author develops a novel analysis method for QCD sum rules (QCDSR) by applying the maximum entropy method (MEM) to arrive at an analysis with less artificial assumptions than previously held. This is a first-time accomplishment in the field. In this thesis, a reformed MEM for QCDSR is formalized and is applied to the sum rules of several channels: the light-quark meson in the vector channel, the light-quark baryon channel with spin and isospin 1/2, and several quarkonium channels at both zero and finite temperatures. This novel technique of combining QCDSR with MEM is applied to the study of quarkonium in hot matter, which is an important probe of the quark-gluon plasma currently being created in heavy-ion collision experiments at RHIC and LHC.

Vacuum Structure and QCD Sum Rules

The method of the QCD sum rules was and still is one of the most productive tools in a wide range of problems associated with the hadronic phenomenology. Many heuristic ideas, computational devices, specific formulae which are useful to theorists working not only in hadronic physics, have been accumulated in this method. Some of the results and approaches which have originally been developed in connection with the QCD sum rules can be and are successfully applied in related fields, such as supersymmetric gauge theories, nontraditional schemes of quarks and leptons etc. The amount of literature on these and other more basic problems in hadronic physics has grown enormously in recent years. This volume presents a collection of papers which provide an overview of all basic elements of the sum rule approach and priority has been given to those works which seemed most useful from a pedagogical point of view.

Sum Formula for SL2 Over a Totally Real Number Field

The authors prove a general form of the sum formula $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over a totally real number field. This formula relates sums of Kloosterman sums to products of Fourier coefficients of automorphic representations. The authors give two versions: the spectral sum formula (in short: sum formula) and the Kloosterman sum formula. They have the independent test function in the spectral term, in the sum of Kloosterman sums, respectively.
