Field Editor: D. Jennings This study examines how the performance of cross-border venture capital investments is affected by national institutional and cultural distances between the environments of venture capitalists (VCs) and investee ventures. We propose that institutional and cultural distances will decrease VCs' effectiveness in conducting venture capital activities and negatively affect ...

g-frames in hilbert spaces are a redundant set of operators which yield a repre-sentation for each vector in the space. in this paper we investigate the connection betweeng-frames, g-orthonormal bases and g-riesz bases. we show that a family of bounded opera-tors is a g-bessel sequences if and only if the gram matrix associated to its denes a boundedoperator.

In the eld of geography, we have beenexamining the contribution of the morpho-genetic rep-resentation to the comprehension of the cycle: reality,representation, model, reality. A distinction is madebetween map and geomap based on the notion of locus-object. 1. Foundations and limits of cartographic rep-

1. introduction from cultural and land point of view, national heterogeneity is the characteristic of many countries. so that the vast majority of countries are facing regionalism based on their width and number of population which sometimes they challenge the legitimacy of the government. because of its special geographical situation, iran has been the dwelling of people with various language ...

the concept of comprehensive grobner bases was introduced by weispfenning. montes has proposed an efficient algorithm for computing these bases. but he has not explicitly used buchberger's criteria in his algorithm. in this paper we prove that we can apply these criteria on montes algorithm. we propose a modified version of montes algorithm and evaluate its performance via some examples.

in this paper we investigate a new notion of bases in hilbert spaces and similarto fusion frame theory we introduce fusion bases theory in hilbert spaces. we also introducea new denition of fusion dual sequence associated with a fusion basis and show that theoperators of a fusion dual sequence are continuous projections. next we dene the fusionbiorthogonal sequence, bessel fusion basis, hilbe...
