This thesis consists of three papers that are centered around the common theme of Hausdorff uo-Lebesgue topologies and convergence structures on vector lattices and on vector lattices and vector lattice algebras of order bounded operators.

De Nederlandse geschiedenis is nauw verbonden met die van de wereld als geheel. Door migratie, handel en kennisuitwisseling beïnvloedden mensen elkaar over grotere afstanden en intensiever dan we lang dachten. Wereldgeschiedenis van Nederland toonde in meer dan honderd verhalen hoe internationaal de…

The field of exoplanet research is rapidly advancing through the development of new technology, observing techniques, and post-processing methods.

In this thesis we study bistable reaction-diffusion equations on lattice domains.

This thesis mainly extends the theory of positive operators on Riesz spaces to a setting of pre-Riesz spaces.

We consider the propagation of electrical signals through nerve fibres.

One of the effects of climate change is the phenomenon of desertification, a process that occurs in semi-arid and arid areas and causes land degradation as well as vegetation loss. Due to the lack of resources, vegetation self-organizes to sustain itself by forming large-scale spatial patterns.

The symposium is open to all registered participants and consists of a one-day programme and a poster session.
