Stability of Critica of Parametric Elliptic Functionals

We study the stability of noncompact critica of parametric elliptic functionals with a volume constraint. Let F : U ⊂ S → R be a smooth function. For a smooth, oriented hypersurface X : Σ → E whose Gauss map ν : Σ → S is assumed to lie in U , we define the functional FΛ(X) = ∫ Σ F (ν)dΣ + ΛV (X), Λ ∈ R, (1) where V (X) denotes the algebraic n + 1 dimensional volume enclosed by X, V (X) := 1 n +...

Relapsing polychondritis: commentary La policondrite ricorrente: revisione critica

disease of unknown etiology characterized by episodic inflammation of cartilage and potentially progressive degeneration of cartilaginous tissue, such as auricular, nasal and laryngotracheobronchial cartilage. However, many other proteoglycan-rich structures may be involved, such as inner ear, eyes, blood vessels, heart and kidneys (14). RP was first described by Jacksh-Wartenhorst in 1923, who...

A Critica ! Study of Information Systems Strategy Formulation

Over a number of years quite a large body of literature on planning for information systems has been built up. Case-studies have been carried out, success factors have been investigated, and methods for information strategy planning have been examined. However, one does not find a sound conceptual foundation . of the planning for information systems in literature. Based on the strategy models o...

CRITICA: coding region identification tool invoking comparative analysis.

Gene recognition is essential to understanding existing and future DNA sequence data. CRITICA (Coding Region Identification Tool Invoking Comparative Analysis) is a suite of programs for identifying likely protein-coding sequences in DNA by combining comparative analysis of DNA sequences with more common noncomparative methods. In the comparative component of the analysis, regions of DNA are al...
