This observation is at odds with many psychophysical studies of spatial orientation. Accurate perception of spatial orientation is of greatest importance when it is imperative to maintain precarious balance. It has been proposed [1,2] that, when bala...

new semigroup compactifications via the enveloping semigroups of associated flows

this thesis deals with the construction of some function algebras whose corresponding semigroup compactification are universal with respect to some properies of their enveloping semigroups. the special properties are of beigan a left zero, a left simple, a group, an inflation of the right zero, and an inflation of the rectangular band.
