Het Centre for Public Values & Ethics (CPVE) is een interdisciplinair academisch expertisecentrum met als doel het verrichten en verspreiden van wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar waardengeladen vraagstukken in de publieke sector. In het bijzonder wordt gekeken naar de ethiek van de publieke ambtsvervulling…

Traditional hypothesis testing requires researchers to set a fixed sample size in advance. After collecting data, the test determines whether to reject the null hypothesis.

Assuming everywhere good reduction we generalize the class number formula of Taelman to Drinfeld modules over arbitrary coefficient rings.

Wat is de institutionele dynamiek van de goedkeuring van wetgeving inzake de interne markt?

We prove a p-adic version of the work by Gross and Zagier on the differences between singular moduli by proving a set of conjectures by Giampietro and Darmon, who investigated the factorisation of a rational invariant associated to a pair of CM-points on a genus zero Shimura curve, obtained as the ratio…

This work is dedicated to interpreting in cohomological terms the special values of zeta functions of arithmetic schemes.

In Chapter 1 we provide some background information about modular forms, describe the correspondence between half-integral and integer weight modular forms and explain how the coefficients of half-integral weight modular forms encode the central values of L-functions of twisted modular forms.

Science is typically a patchwork of research contributions without much coordination. Especially in clinical trials, the follow-up studies that we do fail to be the most promising.

‘We moeten oppassen dat respect voor politiek pluralisme niet leidt tot het accepteren van een essentialistisch verschil tussen “West” en “Oost” als het aankomt op menselijke waardigheid,’ waarschuwt universitair docent Casper Wits in NRC.

This dissertation explores how Large Language Models (LLMs) can effectively and responsibly contribute to complex decision-making processes. By combining AI and human intelligence, Hybrid Intelligence (HI) emerges, allowing the strengths of both humans and machines to be utilized.

This dissertation is about Bayesian learning from data. How can humans and computers learn from data?

Corruption, integrity (or a lack thereof…) and public values are near omnipresent elements in public administration and politics of all times. Cases of corrupt public officials and politicians continuously emerge. Strangely enough, however, it often remains unknown what actually occurred, how something…

In this project of the Center for Public Values & Ethics (CPVE) ongoing research is conducted on the history of advice to Dutch central government by so-called State committees from 1814 to 2014. State committees have been installed by Dutch central government since 1814 to provide expert advice, research…

Ons doel is om complexe maatschappelijke uitdagingen aan te pakken door technologische vooruitgang en creatieve beleidsinstrumenten te onde…

If X is a locally compact Hausdorff space, then a representation of the complex C* algebra C_0(X) on a Hilbert space $H$ is given by a spectral measure that takes its values in the orthogonal projections on $H$.

This thesis describes how complex and real-world relevant analytical solutions can be found starting from a simple Nagumo problem posed on one or two-dimensional lattices.

Het is moeilijk om de waarde en het belang van mensenrechten te ontkennen, en toch wordt hun toepassing in de context van klimaatverandering steeds meer betwist. Terwijl sommigen beweren dat het moeilijk is om de schending van mensenrechten door klimaatveranderingsprocessen vast te stellen, beweren…

Op 26 februari verscheen het artikel 'Over zorgbestuurders en bonnetjes: integritisme of de miskenning van publieke waarden?' van Dr. A.D.N. Kerkhoff op de website van het Montesquieu Instituut. Dit instituut heeft als doel om de beschikbare kennis op het terrein van democratie, politiek en parlementaire…

Drug-target binding kinetics determine the time course of the central event in pharmacotherapy: Drug-target interaction.

In the past decade many population studies have been performed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to understand the bulk properties of protoplanetary disks around young stars. These population studies mostly consisted of low mass stars, with relatively few of the disks around…

This thesis studies the geometry of representation varieties and character stacks. These are spaces parametrizing the representations of a finitely generated group, typically the fundamental group of a compact manifold, into an algebraic group G.

Modeling and analysis of cyber-physical systems are still challenging. One reason is that cyber-physical systems involve many different parts (cyber or physical), of different nature (discrete or continuous), and in constant interaction via sensing and actuating.

Bicarbonate buffer is largely found in nature due to its ability to regulate pH variations around neutral values. As the pH changes, so does the speciation of the buffer.

Onze AI-wetenschappers werken nauw samen met onder andere de TU Delft en de Erasmus Universiteit.

Classical statistical methods, such as p-values, are difficult for researchers to apply correctly. They for example do not allow drawing conclusions from a study early, or for extending a study with extra research groups that want to make their data available later.

Assessing the risks of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) solely on the basis of experimental assays is time-consuming, resource intensive, and constrained by ethical considerations (such as the principles of the 3Rs of animal testing). The adoption of computational toxicology in this field is a high p…

The different kinds of cultural perspectives on health and disease of the participants are related to their knowledge, beliefs, values and practices manifested in various forms of lifestyle in Indonesia. The cultural diversity of the population is also related to differences in health behaviour.
