Roses red and white

Free groups and roses

Consider the 2n symbols x1, . . . , xn, x−1 1 , . . . , x −1 n . Collect these into a set G. There is a map from G to itself which interchanges xi and x−1 i . This map is denoted by the usual inversion symbol g 7→ g−1. Thus x−1 i is unambiguous and (x −1 i ) −1 = xi. The empty word will be denoted by 1. A word is defined to be a finite ordered list of elements of G, depicted as exemplified by x...

Roses Are Red, Socks Are Blue: Switching Dimensions Disrupts Young Children’s Language Comprehension

Language is used to identify objects in many different ways. An apple can be identified using its name, color, and other attributes. Skilled language comprehension requires listeners to flexibly shift between different dimensions. We asked whether this shifting would be difficult for 3-year-olds, who have relatively immature executive function skills and struggle to switch between dimensions in...

Characterization of Production and Reproduction Performances in Rhode Island Red-White Strain Chicken

This study aimed to characterize production and reproduction performances in Rhode Island Red-White strain chicken developed and maintained at the Central Avian Research Institute, Izatnagar. Three hundred and forty six fertile eggs were set in automated electric incubation and 234 chicks were investigated in three hatches. The performance data was analyzed by least squares analysis of variance...

Physiological and Morphological Responses of White Clover (Trifolium repens) and Red Clover (Trifolium pratense) Plants to Salinity Stress

Trifolium spp. are native plants in Iran exhibiting good ground cover po-tential. Salinity is a major environmental stress and today, 20% of the world cultivated areas and nearly half of all irrigated lands are affected by salinity. The main aim of this research was to study morphological and physiological adaptations of these native species under different salinity levels for urban landscape u...
