Kuhberger et al. show that producing the Langer effect is considerably more difficult than has been assumed. Although their results clearly demonstrate a need for further exploration of the Langer effect, none of their arguments undermines the evidence against simulation theory that we presented in Nichols et al. (1995). In our study, the actor subjects did show an effect, but the prediction su...

Research has found an upward trend in impulse buying in general, and impulse buying is frequently foreseen among mall shoppers. Impulse purchases account for over $4 billion in annual sales in the U.S. (Mogelonsky, 1998). Retailers have found that over 50 percent of mall shoppers purchase on impulse (Nichols et al., 2001). More than one third of all department store purchases were bought on imp...

The main aim of this paper is to investigate the structure of primitively generated connected braided bialgebras A with respect to the braided vector space P consisting of their primitive elements. When the Nichols algebra of P is obtained dividing out the tensor algebra T (P ) by the two-sided ideal generated by its primitive elements of degree at least two, we show that A can be recovered as ...

We give a model of the K-ring of the flag varieties in terms of a certain braided Hopf algebra called the Nichols-Woronowicz algebra. Our model is based on the construction of the path operators by C. Lenart and A. Postnikov.

In Table 2, the sequence information for the Nichols and Mexico A strains at nucleotide position 2,388 of the tp92 gene was inadvertently switched. The correct sequence at this position is as follows: a deletion in Mexico A and an A in Nichols. Please see the corrected Table 2 here. The incorrect information in Table 2 was used to create the phylogenetic tree in Figure 2. Please see the correct...

Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum (T. pallidum) is the noncultivable agent of syphilis, a sexually transmitted disease that is a risk factor for HIV infection (9). Penicillin is the preferred drug for treatment of syphilis (1). Alternative antibiotics for nonpregnant penicillin-allergic patients with primary or secondary syphilis include doxycycline, tetracycline, or erythromycin. Erythromycin...

The paper deals with a new robust PID controller design method based on integrating requirements on transient performance into the popular frequency-domain Ziegler-Nichols design approach. The developed method provides support to the designer by converting identified ultimate plant parameters into PID controller parameters using variable weights that depend on expected maximum overshoot max an...

Polyamines cause inward rectification of (Kir) K channels, but the mechanism is controversial. We employed scanning mutagenesis of Kir6.2, and a structural series of blocking diamines, to combinatorially examine the role of both channel and blocker charges. We find that introduced glutamates at any pore-facing residue in the inner cavity, up to and including the entrance to the selectivity filt...
