In this paper, we propose a new neighborhood semantics for contingency logic, by introducing a simple property in standard neighborhood models. This simplifies the neighborhood semantics given in Fan and van Ditmarsch [4], but does not change the set of valid formulas. Under this perspective, among various notions of bisimulation and respective Hennessy-Milner Theorems, we show that c-bisimulat...

Abstract Single cross-sectional measures of racial discrimination may mask the dynamic nature and cumulative impact repeated exposures to discrimination. Characterizing trajectories, patterns exposure, provide insight on age-related health risk resilience. However, there is a dearth research exploring trajectories. This study characterizes trajectories identifies trajectory correlates among nat...

Following the idea of $L$-fuzzy neighborhood system as introduced byFu-Gui Shi, and its generalization to $(L,M)$-fuzzy neighborhood system, the relationship between  $(L,M)$-fuzzy topology and $(L,M)$-fuzzy neighborhood system will be further studied. As an application of the obtained results, we will describe the initial structures of $(L,M)$-fuzzy neighborhood subspaces and $(L,M)$-fuzzy top...

The Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol is a well-known route discovery protocol for ad-hoc networks. OLSR optimizes the flooding of link state information through the network using multipoint relays (MPRs). Only nodes selected as MPRs are responsible for forwarding control traffic. Many research papers aim to optimize the selection of MPRs with a specific purpose in mind: e.g., to min...

CONTEXT The endocannabinoid system has been implicated in stress adaptation and the regulation of mood in rodent studies, but few human association studies have examined these links and replications are limited. OBJECTIVES To examine whether a synonymous polymorphism, rs1049353, in exon 4 of the gene encoding the human endocannabinoid receptor (CNR1) moderates the effect of self-reported chil...

today, the women from the half of the civil society population and from the perspective of security in the urban society, they are vulnerable social groups that their security is threatened in different ways. this study seeks to examine the factors affecting social security of women living in two neighborhoods in vanak and sarasiab. research theoretical model is composed (inspired by the views ...

attachment to the neighborhood represents a positive mental feeling toward the residential place that links associated with residential location and causing the residents’ commitment to habitat and their desire to maintain a relationship with it over the time and at different stages of life. present research examines neighborhood attachment and the effect of personal networks and modern communi...

the neighborhood is a major factor in urbanism where habitation is characterized.in iranian traditional cities, the concept of neighborhood demonstrates the values of well-being, identity and sociability. neighborhoods can be approached into the following ways: external view that includes official boundaries, issues related to urban development and urban management. internal view that is based ...
