THIS paper contains a demonstration of the Adams conjecture [l] for real vector bundles. Unlike an old attempt of mine [12], which has recently been completed by Friedlander [S], and the proof of Sullivan [1.5], no use is made of the etale topology of algebraic varieties. The proof uses only standard techniques of algebraic topology together with some basic results on the representation rings o...

Arthur Wilfrid Adams died on 9th December, 1974, aged 82 years. He was a Bristolian, the son of Avery Adams, who was for many years Secretary to Bristol Education Committee and a well known local artist. Wiilfrid was educated at Clifton College and then studied medicine lin Bristol and at 'the London Hospital qualifying M.B., BjS. (London) in 1916. After service with (the RAMC 'in the First Wor...

A new-born male baby with typical features of Adams-Oliver syndrome (AOS) is described. Adams-Oliver syndrome is the association of aplasia cutis congenita with terminal transverse limb reduction defects with or without cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita. The patient presented with brachydactyly involving all the digits of his hands and shortening of both big toes along with aplasia cuti...

We generalize to higher spatial dimensions the Stokes-Einstein relation (SER) as well as the leading correction to diffusivity in finite systems with periodic boundary conditions, and validate these results with numerical simulations. We then investigate the evolution of the high-density SER violation with dimension in simple hard sphere glass formers. The analysis suggests that this SER violat...

This paper presents a new LES technique having a better approximation accuracy than the Differential Filters Method described in [9]. The present method can be used jointly with ADM [1, 2] to improve the Stolz-Adams' methods for turbulent flows.Rezumat: În această lucrare este prezentată o nouă tehnică de filtrare în LES ce are o acurateŃe mai mare în aproximare decât metoda de filtrare cu filt...

OBJECTIVE Dysregulated expression of disintegrin-metalloprotease proteins [a disintegrin and metalloproteases (ADAMs) and ADAMs with thrombospondin motif (ADAMTSs)] has been reported in many types of cancers and is believed to play an important role in cancer formation and metastasis. However, little is known about the expression of ADAMs and ADAMTSs in the development of human cervical cancer....
