Finite Differences on t he Sphere

Even before any numerical considerations are confronted, we run into difficulties simply in specifying a coordinate system. It is important to distinguish between true scalarvalued and vector-valued functions. The value of a scalar function, say temperature, is independent of coordinate system. That is, the temperature at some point in space is the same regardless of how we define the position ...

T Op of T He C Lass : T He I Mportance of O Rdinal R Ank

This paper examines the long-run impact of ordinal rank during primary school on productivity using comprehensive English administrative data. Identification is obtained from variation in test score distributions across cohorts and subjects, such that the same score relative to the school mean can have different ranks. Conditional on cardinal measures of achievement, being ranked highly during ...

EVALUATION OF CRANIALIZATION TECHNIQUE IN T HE TREATMENT OF FRONTAL SINUS FRACTU RES

Frontal sinus fractures are of surgical importance because of the microbial flora covering the frontal air sinus and it's proximity with the duramater and brain. There is an increased risk of meningitis when fracture of the posterior wall of the frontal sinus is associated with a dural tear. In this condition, communication occurs between the contaminated space of the air sinus and the intr...

T he square Fibonacci tiling *

We introduce the 2-dimensional square Fibonacci tiling and its generalization to higher dimensions as models for quasicrystals without ‘forbidden’ symmetries. We derive some of the basic mathematical properties of the tiling as well as calculate its diffraction pattern. We discuss the relevance of the Fibonacci tiling for quasicrystal research and for applications in other fields.  2002 Elsevi...
