20 09 Diameter of Reduced Words
نویسنده
چکیده
For finite reflection groups of types A and B, we determine the diameter of the graph whose vertices are reduced words for the longest element and whose edges are braid relations. This is deduced from a more general theorem that applies to supersolvable hyperplane arrangements.

Flow-mediated and reflex changes in large peripheral artery tone in humans.
Studies of peripheral blood vessels in humans have focused primarily on regulation of blood flow and vascular resistance, which are thought to reflect small vessel caliber. Recent studies in animals have identified flow-mediated and neurogenic changes in large artery diameter. This study tested for flow-mediated dilatation and reflex constriction of the brachial artery in humans. A dual-crystal...
متن کاملImpact of dynamic computed tomographic angiography on endograft sizing for endovascular aneurysm repair.
PURPOSE To quantify dynamic changes in aortoiliac dimensions using dynamic electrocardiographically (ECG)-gated computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and to investigate any potential impact on preoperative endograft sizing in relation to observer variability. METHODS Dynamic ECG-gated CTA was performed in 18 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. Postprocessing resulted in 11 datasets per...
متن کاملVideo-imaging of lumen narrowing; muscle shortening and flow responsiveness in isolated bronchial segments of the pig.
The amount of smooth muscle shortening required to cause narrowing of the bronchial lumen and to significantly alter airflow in an airway has not not been measured. Accordingly, in this study, the lumens of isolated fluid-filled bronchial segments from pigs were directly visualized using a fibreoptic endoscope and video-recording. The extent of lumen narrowing was related to smooth muscle contr...
متن کاملRoad effect on diameter growth of trees in Caspian forests of Iran
Forest roads are the most important elements of forestry projects, the management, supervision, care, and only access way to the forest for mechanized harvesting and using other services of forests. The aim of this study was to compare the current annual increment of basal area in different distances from the road in northern forests of Iran. For this purpose, 50 plots were established in 5 dis...

The flip operation on colored inner-triangle-free triangulations of a convex polygon is studied. It is shown that the affine Weyl group e Cn acts transitively on these triangulations by colored flips, and that the resulting colored flip graph is closely related to a lower interval in the weak order on e Cn. Lattice properties of this order are then applied to compute the diameter.
