When are global units norms of units?

What do you do when all units are incompatible?

Estimating ratio scale values when units are unspecified

Multiplication of a ratio scale by a positive constant (a similarity transformation) causes the values to change to a different unit of measure without upsetting relative ratios between objects. Because the relative ratios of any two objects are uniquely represented, a column vector estimating the same objects can be expressed as a comparison matrix which has no effect of any similarity transfo...

Global Units modulo Circular Units : descent without Iwasawa’s Main Conjecture

Iwasawa’s classical asymptotical formula relates the orders of the p-parts Xn of the ideal class groups along a Zp-extension F∞/F of a number field F , to Iwasawa structural invariants λ and μ attached to the inverse limit X∞ = lim ← Xn. It relies on ”good” descent properties satisfied by Xn. If F is abelian and F∞ is cyclotomic it is known that the p-parts of the orders of the global units mod...

Core Units of Spoken Grammar in Global ELT Textbooks

Materials evaluation studies have constantly demonstrated that there is no one fixed procedure for conducting textbook evaluation studies. Instead, the criteria must be selected according to the needs and objectives of the context in which evaluation takes place. The speaking skill as part of the communicative competence has been emphasized as an important objective in language teaching. The pr...

Graphemes are perceptual reading units.

Graphemes are commonly defined as the written representation of phonemes. For example, the word 'BREAD' is composed of the four phonemes /b/, /r/, /e/ and /d/, and consequently, of the four graphemes 'B', 'R', 'EA', and 'D'. Graphemes can thus be considered the minimal 'functional bridges' in the mapping between orthography and phonology. In the present study, we investigated the hypothesis tha...
