Schwartz-Jampel syndrome is a rare, inherited disorder characterized by myotonia, skeletal deformities, facial dysmorphism, and growth retardation. In this report of an adolescent male patient with Schwartz-Jampel syndrome, CT and MR imaging revealed basilar invagination, platybasia, Chiari I malformation, hyperpneumatized mastoids with intramastoid dural sinuses, platyspondyly, bulbous zygoma,...

Schwartz et al. hold that variation among the Dmanisi skulls reflects taxic diversity. The morphological observations to support their hypothesis, however, are partly incorrect, and not calibrated against intraspecific variation in living taxa. After proper adjustment, Schwartz et al.'s data are fully compatible with the hypothesis of a single paleodeme of early Homo at Dmanisi.

In failure time distributions, inliers in a data set are subset of observations sufficiently small relative to the rest of the observations, which appears to be inconsistent with the remaining data set. They are either the resultant of instantaneous failures or early failures, experienced in many life-testing experiments. The model used in outliers, where r observations are outliers is modified...

The Schwartz-Jampel Syndrome (SJS) is a very rare condition characterised by Constant fìndings such as typical facial appearance, muscle hypertrophy and continuous muscle activity. Other fìndings are more or less frequently associated, especially skeletai abnormalities, including dwarfism or anyway short stature. The Authors review thè literature about this condition analysing thè clinical pict...

Schwartz 82 (IM Lupi; HBC 605; IRAS 15528-3747) is an M0 T Tauri star located within the Lupus star forming clouds at a distance of ∼190 pc (Wichmann et al. 1998). It is one of four young stellar objects in a small CO(1-0) core near the extreme T Tauri star RU Lupi (Tachihara et al. 1996). Unlike its more famous neighbor, Sz 82 displays only a modest amount of emission-line activity, with an Hα...

This thesis consists of two parts. In the first part the Longstaff and Schwartz least squares method (a Monte-Carlo method) for pricing American type options is investigated. The method is based on valuation through a comparison between the value of early exercise and the conditional expected value of continued possession. The result is regressed on a set of basis functions. In this paper the f...

These are the lecture notes for my talk on December 1, 2014 at the BIRS workshop “Motivic Integration, Orbital Integrals, and Zeta-Functions”. 1. Semi-algebraic sets and the Seidenberg-Tarski theorem In this section we follow [BCR]. Definition 1.1. A subset A ⊂ R is called a semi-algebraic set if it can be presented as a finite union of sets defined by a finite number of polynomial equalities a...
