   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historia

   Author : Lea Noemi Feinauer; [2023]
   Keywords : Food Regimes; Actor-Network-Theory; Sustainable Agriculture; Common Agricultural Policy; Climate Change; Sustainable Consumption; Food Security;

   Abstract : At my thesis’s core is the transformation of the agricultural industry based on the framework of food regimes established by Philip McMichael and Harriet Friedmann. The framework of food regimes will guide the analysis of recent agricultural developments towards sustainability. READ MORE

3. 2. Random Edge is not faster than Random Facet on Linear Programs

   University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

   Author : Nicole Hedblom; [2023]
   Keywords : Simplex method; simplex; Random Edge; Linear Programming; Random Facet; randomized pivoting rule; Markov decision process; Simplexmetoden; Random Edge; linjärprogrammering; Random Facet; Markov-beslutsprocess;

   Abstract : A Linear Program is a problem where the goal is to maximize a linear function subject to a set of linear inequalities. Geometrically, this can be rephrased as finding the highest point on a polyhedron. The Simplex method is a commonly used algorithm to solve Linear Programs. READ MORE

4. 3. The Role of Human Rights and Agroecology at the UN Food Systems Summit : A Study of Food Security Discourse in Global Food Governance

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för globala politiska studier (GPS)

   Author : Erica Karlsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Food Security; UN Food Systems Summit; Human Rights; Agroecology;

   Abstract : The UN Food Systems Summit (UNFSS), held in September 2021, brought great expectations of a sustainable food systems transition in accordance with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It was, however, almost instantly criticised for failing to be transparent, implementing a Human Rights Based Approach (HRBA) and agroecological principles, and for not including the UN Committee of Food Security (CFS).

5. 4. General Relativity and Dynamical Universes

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

   Author : Kajsa Fransson; [2021]
   Keywords : cosmology; general relativity; scale factor; friedmann equation;

   Abstract : The aim of this report is to explore different models of cosmology, depending on components as matter, radiation and dark energy. To be able to investigate the behaviour and age of these model universes, it is necessary to solve the Friedmann equation. READ MORE

6. 5. On the Interaction Between Electromagnetic, Gravitational, and Plasma Related Perturbations on LRS Class II Spacetimes

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Philip Semrén; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this thesis, we investigate the interaction between electromagnetic, gravitational, and plasma related perturbations on homogeneous and hypersurface orthogonal Locally Rotationally Symmetric (LRS) class II spacetimes. By using these spacetimes, which allow for the inclusion of a non-zero magnetic field, as backgrounds in a perturbative approach, we are able to see interactions between the electromagnetic and gravitational variables already to first order in the perturbations.
