We introduce and study the partial singular braid monoid PSBn, a monoid that contains both the inverse braid monoid IBn and the singular braid monoid SBn. Our main results include a characterization of Green’s relations, a presentation in terms of generators and relations, and a proof that PSBn embeds in the semigroup algebra C[IBn].

bark". Dietrich provides eleven notes to Ibn al-Baitar's commentary and, as he does in all entries, attempts to identify the plant in modern nomenclature. In this instance, however, Dietrich says, "The plant's identification is very doubtful, perhaps impossible to know". And, he references his discussion of the plant in his Dioscurides triumphans. The reverse happens as well. As an illustration...

POEMS syndrome is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome and there are few reports of polyneuropathy and monoclonal gammopathy associated with kidney dysfunction. Here, we report a case of POEMS syndrome with recurrent acute kidney injury (AKI). A 52-year-old man presented with bilateral aggravating paresthesia and latermotor weakness of the lower extremities accompanied by repeated elevation of serum ...

This section 9.3 of Ibn Sı̄nā’s Qiyās is a commentary on sections 25 and 26 of Aristotle’s Prior Analytics i, pages 41b36–43a19. NB the parallel passage in Ibn Sı̄nā’s Burhān iii.2, p. 136ff (Badawi). The paper below is what Wikipedia would call a stub. I will add and correct as time allows. I make the paper available now because it contains a complete translation of Qiyās section 9.3, which is a...

Prime numbers had been objects of fascination, for both mathematicians and artists, since the time of Euclid. This article explores the links between prime numbers and poetry. We start with a selection of poems celebrating the mathematical properties of these enigmatic and unpredictable integers and their impact on those who explore them. We then turn our attention to poetry reflecting cultural...

Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a unique subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. POEMS syndrome is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by an underlying plasma cell disorder (PCD). The occurrence of AITL with POEMS syndrome has rarely been reported in the literature. The current study presents the case of a 53-year-old male who presented with a rapidly proliferative lymph node on t...

In the last half century Ibrahim Madkour revolutionised the study of Arabic logic by making available a modern edition of the text of the Logic section of Ibn Sı̄nā’s Šifā’. Ibn Sı̄nā’s account of logic in the Šifā’ is much fuller than any of his other surviving accounts; it runs to some two thousand pages. It is also — in my view — more radical and more independent of Aristotle than his other ac...

characterized by polyneuropathy (P), organomegaly (O), endocrinopathy (E), monoclonal gammopathy (M) and skin abnormalities (S)5. POEMS syndrome is a rare disease, since its prevalence, although still not well defined, has been estimated to be < 1% in cases of monoclonal gammopathies1,3. However, the true prevalence of POEMS syndrome may be underestimated, since no single test establishes the d...
