Cette thèse a pour but la construction des bases conceptuelles qui peuvent soutenir une nouvelle lecture de la théorie de la sexuation chez Lacan. Le texte cherche à extraire des conséquences de l’aphorisme « l’être sexué ne s'autorise que de lui-même et de quelques autres », énoncé au sein d’une description des formules de la sexuation à partir d’un dire. Nous avons élu l’identification comme méthode, dans ses incidences aux registres réel, symbolique et imaginaire. Dans le premier chapitre nous avons discuté le parallèle entre la sexuation et l’autorisation de l’analyste et l’influence de Marcel Proust dans l’approche entre l’autorisation sexuée et le groupe fait par Lacan. Une analyse de luttes pour la reconnaissance sociale de genres non-intelligibles nous a fourni un modèle de groupe précisé par Lacan comme un « réel nouvellement émergé ». Dans notre deuxième chapitre, nous avons revisité les origines des notions de signifiant (dans l’idée de constellation symbolique), grand Autre (décrit au départ comme grands Autres) et loi symbolique (et son indissociable rapport à la norme chez Lévi-Strauss), pour démontrer de quelle façon l’altérité symbolique qui localise la position du sujet sexué est plurielle et basée sur la variabilité des éléments dans un système structurel. Notre dernier chapitre a exploré le rôle central des semblables dans le processus d’assomption sexuel et l’autorisation était décrite en termes d’une précipitation – présent dans stade du miroir et dans le moment de conclure du temps logique. À la fin de la recherche, on a discuté, à partir de la notion de sinthome, la centralité de l’acte de nomination, étant celui qui noue les trois registres de la sexuation / This thesis aims to detail the conceptual bases for a new reading of Lacan’s sexuation theory. We intent to investigate the genesis and consequences of the proposition “The sexed being is only authorized by him/herself and by some others”, uttered by Lacan on his seminar Les non-dupes errant, as he describes the formulas of sexuation in terms of a saying. In order to underscore the sexuation’s processual dimension, the concept of identification was turned into a methodological tool as we proceed an analysis of its incidences among the registers of the real, symbolic and imaginary in Lacan’s teaching. On our first chapter, we’ve discussed the sexuation and its parallel with the analyst’s authorization as well as Marcel Proust’s influence on the lacaninan relation between sexed authorization and the question of the group. Gender related social and political struggles were taken as a model of the lacanian notion of group as an “real recently emerged”. On our second chapter, we’ve explored the origins of the notions of signifier (from the idea of symbolic constellation), big Other (initially described as big Others) and symbolic law (and its inseparable relation with the norm in Lévi-Strauss), to indicate how the symbolic alterity that locates the sexed subject’s position is plural and based on the elements’ variability at one given structural system. The last chapter presents the fundamental role of the neighbors on the sexual assumption’s process and discusses the authorization in terms of an anticipation – found in both mirror stage and the logical time’s moment of concluding. Lastly, an analysis of the notion of sinthome has shown the centrality of the act of naming as an instance that knots the three registers of the sexuation

The objective of the thesis is to investigate the trace formulas and their applications on Hecke eigenvalues, especially on the distribution of Hecke eigenvalues. This thesis is divided into two parts.. In the first part of the thesis, a review is firstly carried out for the equidistribution of Hecke eigenvalues as primes vary and for the expected size of the error term in this equidistribution problem. Then the Kuznetsov trace formula is applied to prove a result on the size of the error term in the asymptotic distribution formula of Hecke eigenvalues. These eigenvalues become equidistributed with respect to the p-adic Plancherel measures as Hecke eigenforms vary. Next, this problem is generalized to Satake parameters of GL2 representations with prescribed supercuspidal local representations. Such a generalization is novel to the case of classical automorphic forms. To achieve this result, a trace formula of Arthur-Selberg type with a couple of key refinements is used. In the second part of the thesis, a density theorem is proved which counts the number of exceptional nontrivial zeros of a family of symmetric power L-functions attached to primitive Maass forms in the critical strip. In addition, a large sieve inequality of Elliott-Montgomery-Vaughan type for primitive Maass forms is established. The density theorem and large sieve inequality have many applications. For instance, they are used to prove statistical results on Hecke eigenvalues of primitive Maass forms and the extreme values of the symmetric power L-functions attached to primitive Maass forms. / published_or_final_version / Mathematics / Doctoral / Doctor of Philosophy

This thesis advocates the use of maximum likelihood analysis for generalized regression models with measurement error in a single explanatory variable. This will be done first by presenting a computational algorithm and the numerical details for carrying out this algorithm on a wide variety of models. The computational methods will be based on the EM algorithm in conjunction with the use of Gauss-Hermite quadrature to approximate integrals in the E-step. Second, this thesis will demonstrate the relative superiority of likelihood-ratio tests and confidence intervals over those based on asymptotic normality of estimates and standard errors, and that likelihood methods may be more robust in these situations than previously thought. The ability to carry out likelihood analysis under a wide range of distributional assumptions, along with the advantages of likelihood ratio inference and the encouraging robustness results make likelihood analysis a practical option worth considering in regression problems with explanatory variable measurement error. / Graduation date: 1999

We discuss the Cauchy problem for the Dolbeault cohomology in a domain of C n with data on a part of the boundary. In this setting we introduce the concept of a Carleman function which proves useful in the study of uniqueness. Apart from an abstract framework we show explicit Carleman formulas for the Dolbeault cohomology.
