Amalgams and χ-Boundedness

A class of graphs is hereditary if it is closed under isomorphism and induced subgraphs. A class G of graphs is χ-bounded if there exists a function f : N → N such that for all graphs G ∈ G, and all induced subgraphs H of G, we have that χ(H) ≤ f(ω(H)). We prove that proper homogeneous sets, clique-cutsets, and amalgams together preserve χ-boundedness. More precisely, we show that if G and G∗ a...

Developing numerical algorithm and a new program for simulating alkali aggregate reaction in mass concrete

Nowadays, Alkali Aggregate Reaction is considered as one of the most dangerous weak points of concrete and its occurrence has been widely reported in various structures. In the current study, a program is developed for predicting and examining the effects of mentioned reaction on the three-dimensional analysis of concrete structures such as arch dams. In this regard, a program provided for dam ...

Quasiconvexity and Amalgams

We obtain a criterion for quasiconvexity of a subgroup of an amalgamated free product of two word hyperbolic groups along a virtually cyclic subgroup. The result provides a method of constructing new word hyperbolic group in class (Q), that is such that all their finitely generated subgroups are quasiconvex. It is known that free groups, hyperbolic surface groups and most 3-dimensional Kleinian...

A Comparison of Oral Health Between Multiple Sclerosis Subjects with Dental Amalgams and Those with Amalgams Removed

93 Abstract The findings presented here suggest that mercury poisoning from dental amalgams may play a role in the etiology of oral health disorders in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Comparisons between MS subjects with dental amalgams and a control group of MS subjects without amalgams found significantly fewer oral cavity symptoms per subject in the amalgam-removal group during twelve mont...
