In this paper, a Banach phase space containing BC(−∞, 0] and contained in C(−∞, 0] is defined with which existence of a solution and convergence of a discrete scheme are proved for an infinite delay differential equation.

We construct CAT(0) groups containing subgroups whose Dehn functions are given by x , for a dense set of numbers s ∈ [2,∞). This significantly expands the known geometric behavior of subgroups of CAT(0) groups.

The objectives of the current study were to evaluate the effect of feeding diets containing 0, 10, or 20% distillers dried grains plus solubles (DDGS) to laying hens (21 to 26 wk of age) on emissions of NH3 and H2S. Hy-Line W-36 hens (n = 640) were allocated randomly to 8 environmental rooms for a 5-wk period (hens in 3 rooms were offered the 10% and 20% DDGS diets each; hens in 2 rooms were of...

We study the isolated singularities of functions satisfying (E) (--$\Delta$) s v$\pm$|v| p--1 v = 0 in $\Omega$\{0}, R N \$\Omega$, where < 1, p > 1 and $\Omega$ is a bounded domain containing origin. use Caffarelli-Silvestre extension to + x N. emphasize obtention priori estimates, analyse set self-similar solutions via energy methods characterize singularities.

Crowd-sourced biodiversity databases provide easy access to data and images for ecological education research. One concern with using publicly sourced databases; however, is the quality of their images, taxonomic descriptions, geographical metadata. The method presented in this paper attempts address a suite pipelines evaluate consistency, how well geo-tagging fits known distributions, image cr...

Four experiments were conducted to determine the effects of dietary supplementation of corn distillers dried grain with solubles (DDGS) diets with mannanase on performance, apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of energy and nutrients, blood metabolites, and carcass characteristics of grower-finisher pigs. In Exp. 1, 96 grower pigs (initial BW, 57.6 kg), 6 pigs per pen and 4 pens per treatm...

The idea that the whole can represent more than the sum of the parts is of fundamental importance in science, as illustrated in complexity theory: the emergent behavior of many complex systems cannot simply be derived from their individual components. In quantum mechanics, this phenomenon appears in a particularly subtle form: certain physical quantities, relevant to the description of quantum ...

Isothermal and dynamic methodologies were used to study the thermal degradation of 8 novel fatty acid anion-based ionic liquids (FAILs): methyltrioctylammonium hexanoate [N8,8,8,1][C6:0], octanoate [N8,8,8,1][C8:0], tetrahexylammonium [N6,6,6,6][C8:0], laurate [N8,8,8,1][C12:0], palmitate [N8,8,8,1][C16:0], [N6,6,6,6][C16:0], stearate [N8,8,8,1][C18:0] oleate [N8,8,8,1][C18:1]. The stability th...

BACKGROUND HIV-1 drug resistance to older thymidine analogue nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor drugs has been identified in sub-Saharan Africa in patients with virological failure of first-line combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) containing the modern nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor tenofovir. We aimed to investigate the prevalence and correlates of thymidine analogue m...
