Primula Kerneri Göbl et Stein

Primula Culture and Production

The name Primula or primrose is derived from the word primary or first, referring to the early growth and flowering in spring (Liberty Hyde Bailey Hortorium, 1976). More than 400 species of primula exist in the family Primulaceae (Griffiths, 1994). Other important horticultural genera in this family, besides primula, include pimpernel (Anagallis), rock jasmine (Androsace), persian violet, alpin...

Stein E

We present a certain geometrical interpretation of the natural numbers, where these numbers appear as joint products of 5and 3-multiples located at specified positions in a revolving chamber. Numbers without factors 2, 3 or 5 appear at eight such positions, and any prime number larger than 7 manifests at one of these eight positions after a specified amount of rotations of the chamber. Our appr...

Stein Points

An important task in computational statistics and machine learning is to approximate a posterior distribution p(x) with an empirical measure supported on a set of representative points {xi}i=1. This paper focuses on methods where the selection of points is essentially deterministic, with an emphasis on achieving accurate approximation when n is small. To this end, we present Stein Points. The i...

Holomorphic fiber bundle with Stein base and Stein fibers

A surjective holomorphic map Π : X → Y between complex spaces is said to be a Stein morphism, if for every point y ∈ Y , there exists an open neighborhood U of y such that Π(U) is Stein. In 1977, Skoda [12] showed that a locally trivial analytic fiber bundle Π : X → Ω with Stein base and Stein fibers is not necessarily a Stein manifold. Thus giving a negative answer to a conjecture proposed in ...
