Early Life and Background
|
Francisco da Silva, widely known as Chico da Silva, was born to an Indigenous Peruvian father and a Brazilian mother from Ceará, northeastern Brazil. His early years were spent in the Amazon forest, where he was exposed to the rich local flora and fauna. After the death of his father, a boatman, from a rattlesnake bite, Chico moved with his mother to Fortaleza.

Artistic Career
|
Chico began his career as a self-taught artist, initially painting birds on fishermen's houses using charcoal, chalk, and natural pigments. His unique style was discovered in 1943 by Jean-Pierre Chabloz, a Swiss art critic and artist, who supplied him with painting materials and canvases.Chabloz played a pivotal role in promoting Chico's art. In 1952, he wrote an article titled “A Brazilian Indian reinvents painting” in the French journal Cahiers d’Art, which led to Chico's widespread recognition. Chabloz organized exhibitions of Chico's work in museums across Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paris, and several Swiss cities.

Artistic Career
|
Chico's work, characterized by pointillist depictions of dragons, serpents, fish, and birds, gained popularity. Chabloz played a significant role in promoting Chico's art, selling it to collectors in Rio, São Paulo, and Europe, and featuring it in art journals. Chico's paintings were known for their bright colors and patterns, with a notable work titled “Untitled” from 1972.

| 75,668,451 |
Artistic Career
|
From 1961, Chico worked at the Federal University of Ceará’s art museum and was introduced to his first dealer, Henrique Bluhm. His fame grew, leading to exhibitions at prestigious venues, including the Brazilian pavilion of the Venice Biennale in 1966 and the São Paulo Biennial in 1967.

Legacy and Reassessment
|
Chico's work was initially celebrated for its “primitive” vision. However, later in life, he faced skepticism regarding the authenticity of his work. He died in 1985 from alcoholism, at that time largely dismissed by the art world. Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in his work, with exhibitions and scholarly attention reassessing his contributions and the issues of authorship and autonomy in his art. Chico's legacy has recently been reassesed in its its contextual relation to Brazilian modernists, including Lygia Pape, Lygia Clark, Hélio Oiticica, and Mira Schendel.
|

| 75,668,451 |
Influence
|
Chico da Silva is noted as one of the first Brazilian artists of Indigenous descent to achieve international recognition. His style and communal studio practice in the Pirambu neighborhood of Fortaleza have influenced contemporary Indigenous artists in Brazil, such as Denilson Baniwa and Jaider Esbell. His use of assistants and collective production in art was both innovative and controversial, challenging traditional notions of authorship in Brazilian modernism. Da Silva is the subject of a documentary produced by the Pinacoteca de São Paulo.

|
Vista Peak (Alaska)
| 75,668,586 |
Description
|
Vista Peak is located 20 miles (32 km) northeast of Anchorage in the western Chugach Mountains and within Chugach State Park. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains to Knik Arm via Peters Creek and Eagle River. Although modest in elevation, relief is significant as the summit rises approximately 4,600 feet (1,400 m) above Peters Creek in 2.5 miles (4.0 km) and 4,900 feet (1,500 m) above Eagle River in four miles (6.4 km). An ascent of the summit involves hiking six miles with 3,980 feet of elevation gain. The months of May through September offer the best time for climbing the peak. The mountain's toponym appears on USGS maps, but it has not been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names.
|
Vista Peak (Alaska)
| 75,668,586 |
Climate
|
Based on the Köppen climate classification, Vista Peak is located in a subarctic climate zone with long, cold, snowy winters, and mild summers. Weather systems coming off the Gulf of Alaska are forced upwards by the Chugach Mountains (orographic lift), causing heavy precipitation in the form of rainfall and snowfall. Winter temperatures can drop below −10 °F with wind chill factors below −20 °F.

|
Beatmania IIDX tasks the player with performing songs through a controller consisting of seven key buttons and a scratchable turntable. Hitting the notes with strong timing increases the score and groove gauge bar, allowing the player to finish the stage. Failing to do so depletes the gauge until it is empty, abruptly ending the song.

The museum moved into its 18,500 sq ft (1,720 m) R. Preston Nash Jr. Hangar in August 2002. It opened to the public two months later, 19 October 2002, shortly after receiving a 1925 White bus. The museum acquired a Travel Air 6000 that had previously been owned by Johnson Flying Service in 2013. The following May a Bell 47G that was built from parts was donated to the museum and a J-3 was added seven months after that.

In June 2018, the museum began preparing its C-47 for a flight to France as part of a flyover for the 75th anniversary of the Invasion of Normandy. As the airplane was not yet airworthy, the museum purchased another DC-3 in March 2019 for flight training.

Absolutely and completely monotonic functions and sequences
| 75,668,874 |
In mathematics, the notions of an absolutely monotonic function and a completely monotonic function are two very closely related concepts. Both imply very strong monotonicity properties. Both types of functions have derivatives of all orders. In the case of an absolutely monotonic function, the function as well as its derivatives of all orders must be non-negative in its domain of definition which would imply that the function as well as its derivatives of all orders are monotonically increasing functions in the domain of definition. In the case of a completely monotonic function, the function and its derivatives must be alternately non-negative and non-positive in its domain of definition which would imply that function and its derivatives are alternately monotonically increasing and monotonically decreasing functions. Such functions were first studied by S. Bernshtein in 1914 and the terminology is also due to him. There are several other related notions like the concepts of almost completely monotonic function, logarithmically completely monotonic function, strongly logarithmically completely monotonic function, strongly completely monotonic function and almost strongly completely monotonic function. Another related concept is that of a completely/absolutely monotonic sequence. This notion was introduced by Hausdorff in 1921.

Absolutely and completely monotonic functions and sequences

The notions of completely and absolutely monotone function/sequence play an important role in several areas of mathematics. For example, in classical analysis they occur in the proof of the positivity of integrals involving Bessel functions or the positivity of Cesàro means of certain Jacobi series. Such functions occur in other areas of mathematics such as probability theory, numerical analysis, and elasticity.

A real valued function f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} defined over an interval I {\displaystyle I} in the real line is called an absolutely monotonic function if it has derivatives f ( n ) ( x ) {\displaystyle f^{(n)}(x)} of all orders n = 0 , 1 , 2 , … {\displaystyle n=0,1,2,\ldots } and f ( n ) ( x ) ≥ 0 {\displaystyle f^{(n)}(x)\geq 0} for all x {\displaystyle x} in I {\displaystyle I} . The function f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} is called a completely monotonic function if ( − 1 ) n f ( n ) ( x ) ≥ 0 {\displaystyle (-1)^{n}f^{(n)}(x)\geq 0} for all x {\displaystyle x} in I {\displaystyle I} .

The two notions are mutually related. The function f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} is completely monotonic if and only if f ( − x ) {\displaystyle f(-x)} is absolutely monotonic on − I {\displaystyle -I} where − I {\displaystyle -I} the interval obtained by reflecting I {\displaystyle I} with respect to the origin. (Thus, if I {\displaystyle I} is the interval ( a , b ) {\displaystyle (a,b)} then − I {\displaystyle -I} is the interval ( − b , − a ) {\displaystyle (-b,-a)} .)
