Coarse Geometry and P. A. Smith Theory

REVERSE LOOP SUBDIVISION FOR GEOMETRY AND TEXTURES

Reverse subdivision aims at constructing a coarser representation of an object given by a fine polygon mesh. In this paper, we first derive a mask for reverse Loop subdivision that can be applied to both regular and extraordinary vertices. The mask is parameterized, and thus can also be used in reversing variants of Loop subdivision, such as those proposed by Warren and Litke. We apply this mas...

Coarse Geometry via Grothendieck Topologies

In the course of the last years several authors have studied index problems for open Riemannian manifolds. The abstract indices are elements in the K-theory of an associated C∗-algebra, which only depends on the ”coarse” (or large scale) geometry of the underlying metric space. In order to make these indices computable J.Roe introduced a new cohomology theory, called coarse cohomology, which is...

Instrument dependency of Kubelka-Munk theory in computer color matching

Different industries are usually faced with computer color matching as an important problem. The most famous formula which is commonly used for recipe prediction is based on Kubelka-Munk K-M theory. Considering that spectrophotometer’s geometry and its situation influence the measured spectral values, the performance of this method can be affected by the instrument. In the present study, three ...

P-149: Relying on A Higher Being: A Grounded Theory of Experiencing Infertility in A Religious and Spiritual Context

Background: Infertility is an acute life crisis which may last for an indeterminate length of time. In a holistic approach to infertile women’s care, which is believed to assist patients cope better with their experiences, all aspects of holistic care including religious and spiritual needs of individuals should be considered. A literature review revealed that religious and spiritual dimensions...
