The adaptation of Lactobacillus sakei to a meat environment is reflected in its metabolic potential. For instance, the ability to utilize arginine through the arginine deiminase (ADI) pathway, resulting in additional ATP, represents a competitive benefit. In L. sakei CTC 494, the arc operon (arcABCTDR) shows the same gene order and organization as that in L. sakei 23K, the genome sequence of wh...

in this paper, we investigate the l-fuzzy proximities and the relationships betweenl-fuzzy topologies, l-fuzzy topogenous order and l-fuzzy uniformity. first, we show that the category of-fuzzy topological spaces can be embedded in the category of l-fuzzy quasi-proximity spaces as a coreective full subcategory. second, we show that the category of l -fuzzy proximity spaces is isomorphic to the ...

The relative worst order ratio is a measure for the quality of online algorithms. Unlike the competitive ratio, it compares algorithms directly without involving an optimal offline algorithm. The measure has been successfully applied to problems like paging and bin packing. In this paper, we apply it to machine scheduling. We show that for preemptive scheduling, the measure separates multiple p...

This paper addresses the estimation of Relative Transfer Function (RTF) between microphones from noisy recordings. We utilize an incomplete initial measurement of the RTF, which is known for only several frequency bins. The measurement is completed by finding its sparsest representation in the time domain. We propose to perform this reconstruction by solving a Second-Order Cone Program (SOCP). ...

For two subsetsW and V of a normed space X. The relative Kolmogorov n-width ofW relative to V in X is defined by Kn(W,V )X := inf Ln sup f∈W inf g∈V∩Ln ‖f − g‖X , where the infimum is taken over all n-dimensional subspaces Ln of X. For ∈ R+, defineW p (1 p ∞) to be the collection of 2 -periodic and continuous functions f representable as a convolution f (t)= c + (B ∗ g)(t), where g ∈ Lp(T ), T ...

Working with the mean orbit elements, the secular drift of the longitude of the ascending node and the sum of the argument of perigee and mean anomaly are set equal between two neighboring orbits. By having both orbits drift at equal angular rates on the average, they will not separate over time due to the influence of the perturbative effects of the asphericity of the Earth, as is considered i...

We present the results of an analytic calculation of the corrections of relative order a2(me/mll) to the muonium ground state hyperfine splitting due to exchanged photons. We compare theory and experiment, taking into account these corrections and some radiative-recoil contributions described in an accompanying paper.

This paper studies robust control schemes for two spacecraft in formation subjected to external disturbances in the space environment. Two sliding mode control schemes are designed to generate control with a finite time convergence property. The super twisting and adaptive super twisting control algorithms are developed for the two-spacecraft formation flying system. The second method of Lyapun...

Ocimum basilicum L. essential oil and its β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) complex have been investigated with respect to their stability against the degradative action of air/oxygen and temperature. This supramolecular system was obtained by a crystallization method in order to achieve the equilibrium of complexed-uncomplexed volatile compounds in an ethanol/water solution at 50 °C. Both the raw essentia...
