E também verificar se de fato essa norma é capaz de conferir a celeridade pretendida pelo legislador. Foram traçados os contornos do princípio do julgamento colegiado nos tribunais e o efeito que esse princípio produz na interpretação da regra de competência definida no art. 557. São definidas todas as hipóteses de julgamento unipessoal previstas no ar. 557 do CPC e os limites da atuação do relator. Tratou-se do cabimento de agravo interno contra a decisão do relator, o procedimento de julgamento desse recurso e a aplicabilidade da multa prevista no §2º desse artigo. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida por meio do levantamento do vasto material doutrinário produzido sobre o art. 557 e dos precedentes judiciais a respeito dessa matéria. Foi realizada pesquisa empírica, por meio de amostragem, das decisões do relator proferidas pelo Tribunal de Justiça do Estado do Espírito Santo no julgamento de recurso de apelação. Como resultado, foi possível detectar que o art. 557 não necessariamente representa técnica apta a acelerar o processo. Também foi constatado em diversos casos que o relator decidiu sem observar rigorosamente os limites do art. 557.

Dans cette thèse, nous abordons la question de l’identité sémantique respective des prépositions russes в (/v/) et на (/na/) en établissant pour chacune d’elles un schéma relationnel de base, en construisant leur configuration idéographique, en regroupant leurs relations sémantiques dans le but d’expliquer les emplois polysémiques de ces prépositions. Nous considérons la signification de la préposition comme un réseau complexe, où le sens abstrait de la préposition est précisé par un nombre d’éléments sémantiques (traits idéographiques et relationnels) qui font partie du contexte dans lequel se fixent les différents champs d’application de la préposition. Les systèmes prépositionnels du russe et du français ne sont pas identiques car les champs sémantico-relationnels des prépositions dans les deux langues sont différents : le caractère de la relation (l’activation des traits idéographiques) et le nombre d’entités mises en rapport, régies par telle ou telle préposition, diffèrent d’une langue à l’autre. / The thesis tackles the question of the semantic identity of the Russian prepositions « в » and « нa » establishing for each of them a relational basic scheme, by building their ideographic configuration, by grouping together their semantic relations in order to explain the polysemous use of them. It is argued that the meaning of the preposition is a complex system, where the abstract meaning of the preposition is specified by a number of semantic elements (ideographic and relational features) which are part of the context in which settle the various fields of application of the preposition. The Russian and French prepositional systems diverge because the semantico-relational fields of the prepositions are different in both languages : the character of the relation (activation of the ideographic features) and the number of entities in contact, governed by such or such preposition, differ from one language to another.

In this thesis we study several properties of finitely presented groups, through the unifying paradigm of encoding sought-after group properties into presentations and detecting group properties from presentations, in the context of Geometric Group Theory. A group law is said to be detectable in power subgroups if, for all coprime m and n, a group G satisfies the law if and only if the power subgroups G(^m) and G(ⁿ) both satisfy the law. We prove that for all positive integers c, nilpotency of class at most c is detectable in power subgroups, as is the k-Engel law for k at most 4. In contrast, detectability in power subgroups fails for solvability of given derived length: we construct a finite group W such that W(²) and W(³) are metabelian but W has derived length 3. We analyse the complexity of the detectability of commutativity in power subgroups, in terms of finite presentations that encode a proof of the result. We construct a census of two-generator one-relator groups of relator length at most 9, with complete determination of isomorphism type, and verify a conjecture regarding conditions under which such groups are automatic. Furthermore, we introduce a family of one-relator groups and classify which of them act properly cocompactly on complete CAT(0) spaces; the non-CAT(0) examples are counterexamples to a variation on the aforementioned conjecture. For a subclass, we establish automaticity, which is needed for the census. The deficiency of a group is the maximum over all presentations for that group of the number of generators minus the number of relators. Every finite group has non-positive deficiency. For every prime p we construct finite p-groups of arbitrary negative deficiency, and thereby complete Kotschick's proposed classification of the integers which are deficiencies of Kähler groups. We explore variations and embellishments of our basic construction, which require subtle Schur multiplier computations, and we investigate the conditions on inputs to the construction that are necessary for success. A well-known question asks whether any two non-isometric finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds are distinguished from each other by the finite quotients of their fundamental groups. At present, this has been proved only when one of the manifolds is a once-punctured torus bundle over the circle. We give substantial computational evidence in support of a positive answer, by showing that no two manifolds in the SnapPea census of 72 942 finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds have the same finite quotients. We determine examples of sizeable graphs, as required to construct finitely presented non-hyperbolic subgroups of hyperbolic groups, which have the fewest vertices possible modulo mild topological assumptions.

The starting point was the academic debate and several empiric studies regarding the judicial decision making process in the supreme courts. The Brazilian experience was analyzed using a comprehensive empiric research that comprised the examination of the whole universe of general repercussion s topics judged by STF until December 31st 2013. We have investigated how STF has been applying the institute of general repercussion in order to understand general repercussion effects on the access to constitutional jurisdiction. The outcome evidenced the rapporteur power over the definition of general repercussion s result, as well as his selectivity of the case, of the process to be judged and of the judging house. We have identified that the institutional context influences the trial s output, once the virtual plenary is the main competent house for judging general repercussion on STF. The analysis showed that, despite virtual plenary success and its adjustment to general repercussion trial, there are limitations to be faced for its improvement and a possible amplification of its competences. Finally, we concluded that the incorporation of the general repercussion of the constitutional question to STF s decision process increased access to constitutional jurisdiction. / O presente trabalho analisa o comportamento decisório do Supremo Tribunal Federal, sob o específico crivo da repercussão geral da questão constitucional. O ponto de partida foi o debate acadêmico e inúmeros estudos empíricos acerca do processo de tomada de decisão judicial nas supremas cortes. A experiência brasileira foi analisada a partir de exaustiva pesquisa empírica que compreendeu o exame de todo o universo de temas de repercussão geral julgados pelo STF, até 31 de dezembro de 2013. Investigamos de que forma o tribunal vem aplicando o instituto da repercussão geral, para compreender os seus efeitos na jurisdição constitucional: restritivos ou ampliativos do acesso à jurisdição constitucional. Os resultados encontrados evidenciaram o poder do relator na definição do resultado da repercussão geral, bem como a sua seletividade da matéria, do processo a ser julgado e do órgão julgador. Identificamos que o contexto institucional influencia no resultado do julgamento, sendo que o plenário virtual é o principal órgão competente para o julgamento da repercussão geral no STF. A análise demonstrou que, apesar do êxito do plenário virtual e de sua adequação para o julgamento da preliminar de repercussão geral, há limitações a serem enfrentadas para o seu aperfeiçoamento e possível ampliação de suas competências. Por fim, concluímos que a incorporação da repercussão geral da questão constitucional ao processo decisório do STF ampliou o acesso à jurisdição constitucional.
