This thesis examines first-order Bregman algorithms in a primal and a primal-dual setting. The Bregman gradient descent algorithm is introduced from a majorization-minimization perspective and as a generalization of the gradient descent algorithm. Concepts such as relative smoothness and Legendreness are defined and are shown to be natural restrictions in order to show convergence results. A speci
Under våren 2022 genomförde anställningsskyddslagen en förändring och den svenska arbetsrätten anses vara reformerad. En förändring av den svenska arbetsrätten har inte varit så omfattande sedan anställningsskyddslagen infördes 1973. Arbetsmarknaden präglas av kraven på flexibilitet och rörlighet samtidigt som anställningsskyddet behöver vara en trygghet för arbetstagare. Den svenska arbetsmarknadIn the spring of 2022, the Employment Protection Act implements a change and Swedish labor law is considered reformed. The transformation of Swedish labor law has not been as extensive since the introduction of the Employment Protection Act in 1973. The labor market is characterized by demands for flexibility and mobility, while employment protection needs to provide security for employees. The Sw
This Master thesis is investigating how communities of practice can enhance knowledge sharing in a context of improving a harmonized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system used in supply chain. A student from the faculty of production and materials engineering at Lund university (LTH) collaborated with the Global Trinity organization from Alfa Laval (Lund, Sweden) to answer the research que
Generationsskiften i familjeägda företag är mycket viktiga för de inblandade parterna men kan vara problematiska. För att uppnå bästa möjliga utfall vid ett generationsskifte är det viktigt att planera i god tid. Familjeföretag är ofta fåmansföretag och generationsskiften av dessa företag omfattas av 3:12-reglerna. Enligt dessa regler har det varit skattemässigt förmånligare att avyttra sitt bolagGeneration changes in family firms are very important for the concerned parties but can be problematic. To achieve the best results for a generation change it is important to plan well in advance. Family firms are often close companies and generation changes of these companies are subject to certain statutory provisions. According to these provisions it has been fiscally advantageous to dispose a
The purpose of this study was to investigate how teachers in the seventh to ninth grades of the Swedish elementary school (swe: högstadium) teach about the social service office. In order to understand what knowledge pupils receive about the social service organization and how teachers reflect about their need for this knowledge. The study used a qualitative method with semi structured interviews.
Abstract The greatest source of hazardous airborne particles in an urban environment comes from traffic exhaust. Air pollution has a great impact on human health; estimated to cause 1.3 million deaths worldwide per year. About half of all mortality caused by air pollution can be linked to motorized traffic. There are several other sources that contribute to our polluted environment; from both natu
Förenta nationernas konvention angående avtal om internationella köp av varor är till antalet länder som ratificerat densamma en av de mest lyckade internationella regelverk mellan stater hittills. 62 deltagande länder i den förberedande processen, varav många från olika juridiska system, medförde att kompromisser angående innehållet i regelverket var oundvikliga. Som ett resultat av detta kan tveThe United Nations Convention on Contracts for The International Sale of Goods is one of the most successful instruments of uniform commercial law worldwide. With 62 countries from a variety of legal backgrounds involved in the preparation process of such an instrument compromises are inevitable regarding the substance of the provisions involving controversial issues. As a result, compromises migh
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to improve the material supply to assembly stations at Nedermans and identify parameters and principles that determine if the components should be stored at the assembly station or in the warehouse. The improvement should reduce the floor space used for assembly, increase the assembly utilization rate and reduce waste of time in the material handling.

Background and Aims: Small bowel manometry is increasingly used in the clinical investigation of patients with symptoms of intestinal motor dysfunction. Enteric dysmotility (ED) has been suggested as a new diagnostic term for patients with abnormal intestinal motor activity but no radiological signs of chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIP). Histopathological features of adult patients with E
We investigate the second-order von Neumann approach from a diagrammatic point of view and demonstrate its equivalence with the resonant tunneling approximation. The investigation of higher order diagrams shows that the method correctly reproduces the equation of motion for the single-particle reduced density matrix of an arbitrary non-interacting many-body system. This explains why the method rep
The sexuality of hivinfected people is quite controversial but nevertheless important when speaking of hivprevention. The aim of this work was to survey and analyze support and counseling practices around sexual issues given to hivpositive people by their treating medical doctors. We wanted to bring the question of hivinfected peoples sexuality and sexual behavior sometimes unprotected and the Swe
Syftet med studien var att analysera den kringliggande problematiken för energiproducenters beslutsfattningsprocess när de utvärderar investeringar i energieffektiviseringsåtgärder för uppvärmningssystem i vattenkraftsbaserade produktionsenheter i Sverige. Studien har utgått ifrån de dokumenterade barriärerna för investeringar i energieffektiviseringsåtgärder och applicerar konceptet om EnvironmenThe purpose of this study was to analyze the problems surrounding the decision making process for a energy producer when dealing with (potential) energy efficiency measures. This work creates the basis of a investment prioritizing structure directed at heating systems within Swedish hydro power based production facilities managed by Vattenfall. The research was called for by Vattenfall, as the org
Den 1 januari 2009 trädde en ny lag ikraft som begränsar avdragsrätten för ränta i vissa fall. Lagen kom som en reaktion på ett av Skatteverket uppmärksammat skatteupplägg som beräknades minska den svenska skattebasen med miljardbelopp. Skatteverket tog initiativet till lagstiftningen då man ansåg det nödvändigt att förhindra skatteplanering inom koncerner där ränteavdrag utnyttjas för att överfJanuary 1, 2009 a new legislation entered into force which limits the deductibility of interest in some cases. The law came in response to an observed tax evasion structure which expected to decrease the Swedish tax base by billions. The Swedish Tax Agency initiated the legislation since they deemed it necessary to prevent tax avoidance within company groups where interest deductibility was used
This study starts from the historical view of China’s real estate industry formation and development. It is evidenced that there were no real estate industry nor real estate market in China’s long past history. China’s real estate industry was firstly emerging since the early 1980s; its development to a large extent should be attributed to the national Housing System Reform. During the 30 years de
