Actinic Prurigo: A case report
Actinic prurigo is a rare disease occurring mainly in individuals of American Indian origin and those living in high altitudes. Skin lesions consist of pruritic popular or nodular excoriated lesions mainly affecting exposed skin but covered skin is also involved in up to 50% of patients. This is the first case report of an Iranian patient. This 19-year-old female had pruritic popular and ...
متن کاملA curious instability phenomenon for a rounded corner in presence of a negative material
We study a 2D scalar harmonic wave transmission problem between a classical dielectric and a medium with a real-valued negative permittivity/permeability which models a metal at optical frequency or an ideal negative metamaterial. We highlight an unusual instability phenomenon for this problem when the interface between the two media presents a rounded corner. To establish this result, we provi...
متن کاملQuorum sensing: the explanation of a curious phenomenon reveals a common characteristic of bacteria.
In the 1960s bacterial bioluminescence attracted increasing interest among microbiologists and biochemists. Plating seawater samples taken from virtually any place on the globe revealed the presence of bioluminescent bacteria, but at a rather low level of abundance, not more than a few cells per milliliter. A question frequently raised was what function the light emission might have in such “fr...
متن کاملOn Solving a Curious Inequality of Ramanujan
Ramanujan proved that the inequality π(x) < ex log x π (x e ) holds for all sufficiently large values of x. Using an explicit estimate for the error in the prime number theorem, we show unconditionally that it holds if x ≥ exp(9658). Furthermore, we solve the inequality completely on the Riemann Hypothesis, and show that x = 38, 358, 837, 682 is the largest integer counterexample.
متن کاملA Curious Bijection on Natural Numbers
We give a greedy algorithm for describing an enumeration of the set of all natural numbers such that the sum of the first n terms of the sequence is divisible by n for each natural number n. We show that this leads to a bijection f of the set of all natural numbers onto itself that has some nice properties. We also show that the average function of the first n terms of the sequence satisfies a ...
