Psychometric and psychological characteristics of elder people’s response to question about their health

Introduction: It was shown that elder people’s self-perceptive health isn`t only under emphasis of physical function and other factors like social and cognitive functions effect on it. Aim: This research investigates psychometric and psychological characteristics of elder people’s response to questions about their health during an eighth-year study. Method: The research design was a 2 × 4 fact...

A Question about Differential Ideals

This paper is an extract of a paper that will soon appear in Communications in Algebra. The paper investigates the converse to a theorem which states that a differential domain D finitely generated over a field F of characteristic 0 with no nonzero proper differential ideals will have constants of differentiation C only in the field in question. The converse is known to be false but the questio...

A question about hierarchical systems ∗

The control of large systems is always organized in a distributed hierarchy. We discuss two approaches to understanding such a hierarchy. The approach propagated by work in verification adopts a ‘one-world’ semantics in which syntactical constructs at higher levels are ‘compiled’ into a single interpretation at the lowest level. Many hierarchical systems, however, are designed and analyzed usin...

A Question about Parisi Functional

We conjecture that the Parisi functional in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model is convex in the functional order parameter. We prove a partial result that shows the convexity along “one-sided” directions. An interesting consequence of this result is the log-convexity of Lm norm for a class of random variables.
