Dominance Hierarchy
In the zoological field of ethology, a dominance hierarchy (formerly and colloquially called a pecking order) is a type of social hierarchy that arises when members of animal social animal, social groups interact, creating a ranking system. Different types of interactions can result in dominance depending on the species, including Ritualized aggression, ritualized displays of aggression or direct physical violence. In social living groups, members are likely to compete for access to limited resources and mating opportunities. Rather than fighting each time they meet, individuals of the same sex establish a relative rank, with higher-ranking individuals often gaining more access to resources and mates. Based on repetitive interactions, a social order is created that is subject to change each time a dominant animal is challenged by a subordinate one. Definitions Dominance is an individual's preferential access to resources over another based on coercive capacity based on streng ...

Dominance Drawing
Dominance drawing is a style of graph drawing of directed acyclic graphs that makes the reachability relations between vertices visually apparent. In dominance drawing, vertices are placed at distinct points of the Euclidean plane and a vertex ''v'' is reachable from another vertex ''u'' if and only if both Cartesian coordinates of ''v'' are greater than or equal to the coordinates of ''u''. The edges of a dominance drawing may be drawn either as straight line segments, or, in some cases, as polygonal chains. Planar graphs Every transitively reduced ''st''-planar graph, a directed acyclic planar graph with a single source and a single sink, both on the outer face of some embedding of the graph, has a dominance drawing. The left–right algorithm for finding these drawings sets the ''x'' coordinate of every vertex to be its position in a depth-first search ordering of the graph, starting with ''s'' and prioritizing edges in right-to-left order, and by setting the ''y'' coordinate ...

Dominate
The Dominate is a periodisation of the Roman Empire during late antiquity Late antiquity marks the period that comes after the end of classical antiquity and stretches into the onset of the Early Middle Ages. Late antiquity as a period was popularized by Peter Brown (historian), Peter Brown in 1971, and this periodiza .... It followed the earlier period known as the Principate, with both these concepts of historiography invented by the historian Theodor Mommsen. The ''Dominate'' is now considered a near-obsolete term. Background The historian Jochen Bleicken credits Theodor Mommsen with introducing the concepts of '' Principate'' and ''Dominate'' into the literature to periodise the Roman Imperial era. Based on lecture notes of Sebastian and Paul Hensen in Mommsen's lectures (1882-6) and that were published posthumously as part of his '' History of Rome'', Mommsen explains the concept as follows: H.III, 1The era of Diocletian bears the mark of decline, and does not ...

Male Dominance (BDSM)
Male dominance, or maledom is a BDSM practice where the dominant (BDSM), dominant partner is male. A sexually dominant male in BDSM practices is also known as a maledom. Maledoms can be professional as well as non-professional. The term ProDom is used for a professional male dominant who earns money by working as a professional dominant as part of the sex industry. A maledom who role-plays a paternal figure is also known as Daddy Dom. Practices of domination common to many BDSM and various other sexual relationships are also prevalent, such as various forms of body worship including cock and ball worship, ass worship and foot worship, fellatio, tease and denial, corporal punishment including erotic spanking, spanking, caning and whipping, breast torture, pussy torture, orgasm denial, Erotic humiliation#Means of humiliation, verbal humiliation, face slapping, hair pulling, wax play, spitting, Urolagnia, golden showers, forced orgasm, chastity belt (BDSM), "forced" chastity, and ir ...

Dominance (geography)
The topographic isolation of a summit is the minimum horizontal distance to a point of equal elevation, representing a radius of dominance in which the peak is the highest point. It can be calculated for small hills and islands as well as for major mountain peaks and can even be calculated for submarine summits. Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth, has an undefined isolation, since there are no higher points to reference. Because topographic isolation can be difficult to determine, a common approximation is the distance to a peak called the nearest higher neighbour (NHN). Isolation table The following sortable table lists Earth's 40 most topographically isolated summits. Examples *The nearest peak to Germany's highest mountain, the high Zugspitze, that has a contour is the Zwölferkogel in Austria's Stubai Alps. The distance between the Zugspitze and this contour is ; the Zugspitze is thus the highest peak for a radius of . Its isolation is thus . *Because there ...

Dominance (linguistics)
In generative grammar and related frameworks, a node in a parse tree c-commands its sister node and all of its sister's descendants. In these frameworks, c-command plays a central role in defining and constraining operations such as syntactic movement, Binding (linguistics), binding, and scope (formal semantics), scope. Tanya Reinhart introduced c-command in 1976 as a key component of her theory of Anaphora (linguistics), anaphora. The term is short for "Constituent (linguistics), constituent command". Definition and examples Standard Definition Common terms to represent the relationships between nodes are below (refer to the tree on the right): *M is a parent or mother to A and B. *A and B are children or daughters of M. *A and B are sisters or siblings. *M is a grandparent or grandmother to C and D. The standard definition of c-command is based partly on the relationship of dominance: ''Node N1 dominates node N2 if N1 is above N2 in the tree and one can trace a path from N1 ...

Dominatrix
A dominatrix ( ; or dominatrices ), or domme, is a woman who takes the dominant role in BDSM activities. The BDSM practice is called female dominance, or femdom. A dominatrix can be of any sexual orientation, but this does not necessarily limit the genders of her Submissive (BDSM), submissive partners. Dominatrices are popularly known for inflicting physical pain on their submissive subjects, but this is not done in every case. In some instances erotic humiliation is used, such as verbal humiliation or the assignment of humiliating tasks. Dominatrices also make use of other forms of Servitude (BDSM), servitude. Practices of domination common to many BDSM and other various sexual relationships are also prevalent. A dominatrix is typically a paid professional (''pro-domme'') as the term ''dominatrix'' is little-used within the non-professional BDSM scene. Terminology and etymology ''Dominatrix'' is the feminine form of the Latin ''dominator'', a ruler or lord, and was original ...

Dominance (economics)
Market dominance is the control of a economic market by a firm. A dominant firm possesses the power to affect competition and influence market price. A firms' dominance is a measure of the power of a brand, product, service, or firm, relative to competitive offerings, whereby a dominant firm can behave independent of their competitors or consumers, and without concern for resource allocation. Dominant positioning is both a legal concept and an economic concept and the distinction between the two is important when determining whether a firm's market position is dominant. Abuse of market dominance is an anti-competitive practice, however dominance itself is legal. Sources of market dominance Firms can achieve dominance in their industry through multiple means, such as; * First-mover advantage, * Innovation, * Brand equity, and * Economies of scale. First-mover advantages Many dominant firms are the first "important" competitor in their industry. These firms can achie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dominance Order
In discrete mathematics, dominance order (synonyms: dominance ordering, majorization order, natural ordering) is a partial order on the set of partition (number theory), partitions of a positive integer ''n'' that plays an important role in algebraic combinatorics and representation theory, especially in the context of symmetric functions and representation theory of the symmetric group. Definition If ''p'' = (''p''1,''p''2,...) and ''q'' = (''q''1,''q''2,...) are partitions of ''n'', with the parts arranged in the weakly decreasing order, then ''p'' precedes ''q'' in the dominance order if for any ''k'' ≥ 1, the sum of the ''k'' largest parts of ''p'' is less than or equal to the sum of the ''k'' largest parts of ''q'': : p\trianglelefteq q \text p_1+\cdots+p_k \leq q_1+\cdots+q_k \text k\geq 1. In this definition, partitions are extended by appending zero parts at the end as necessary. Properties of the dominance ordering * Among the partitions of ''n'', (1,...,1) is ...
