The Shadow Presence of U.S. Models of Parental Involvement in Postcolonial Multilingual Language and Literacy Reforms in Western Highland Mayan Rural School Districts in Guatemala

open access: yesJournal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study offers a critique of imperialist relations implicit in U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) pedagogical texts and capacity‐building resources designed to support decolonial Indigenous Mayan language and literacy instruction.

Introduction to Regimenting Postcolonial Multilingualism: Discourses of Speaker/Listener Ideological Positioning

open access: yesJournal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This introduction explores ways of understanding multilingualism in relation to coloniality, with insights from ethnographic case studies in former colonies across several continents. We argue that this theme series advances theorization of the subtleties of power inherent in multilingual discourse with a focus on listening subject agency as ...

Fluctuating asymmetry based on fractal geometry does not track environmental stress in an intertidal habitat‐forming fucoid

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The availability of easy‐to‐measure and inexpensive biomarkers is a challenge for monitoring environmental stress in organisms. Although it has been proposed that non‐directional deviations from a symmetrical pattern in morphological traits (called fluctuating asymmetry.

A FRACTAL VARIATIONAL PRINCIPLE FOR THE TELEGRAPH EQUATION WITH FRACTAL DERIVATIVES

Fractals, 2020
A fractal modification of the telegraph equation with fractal derivatives is given, and its variational principle is established by the semi-inverse method. The two-scale transform method and He’s homotopy perturbation method are successfully adopted to solve the fractal equation.

The Fractional Derivatives of a Fractal Function

Acta Mathematica Sinica, English Series, 2005
The paper investigates the properties of Weyl-Marchaud fractional derivatives \[ D^vf(x) =\frac{v}{\Gamma(1-v)}\int_0^\infty \frac{f(x)-f(x-y)}{y^{1+v}}\, dy \] of a Weierstrass function \(W(t)=\sum_{j\geq 0}\lambda^{-\alpha j} \sin(\lambda^j t ...

The Local Fractional Derivative of Fractal Curves

2008 IEEE International Conference on Signal Image Technology and Internet Based Systems, 2008
Fractal curves described by iterated function system (IFS) are generally non-integer derivative. For that we use fractional derivative to investigate differentiability of this curves. We propose a method to calculate local fractional derivative of a curve from IFS property. Also we give some examples of IFS representing the slopes of the right and left

On Fractal Derivatives and Applications

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences
ABSTRACTIn this paper, we develop some fundamental tools for fractal derivatives, such as a Leibniz‐type product rule and a chain rule. Also, a local Picard theorem for an initial value problem via fractal derivatives is obtained. Finally, the Gompertz and logistic models associated to those differential operators are considered.
