In this paper we enumerate fuzzy subgroups, up to a natural equivalence, of some finite abelian p-groups of rank two where p is any prime number. After obtaining the number of maximal chains of subgroups, we count fuzzy subgroups using inductive arguments. The number of such fuzzy subgroups forms a polynomial in p with pleasing combinatorial coefficients. By exploiting the order, we label the s...

In this paper we provide explicit formulas for the number of elements/subgroups/cyclic subgroups of a given order and for the total number of subgroups/cyclic subgroups in a finite Hamiltonian group. The coverings with three proper subgroups and the principal series of such a group are also counted. Finally, we give a complete description of the lattice of characteristic subgroups of a finite H...

The stimulatory effect of potassium depolarization upon somatostatin (SS) mRNA levels in primary cultures of fetal cerebrocortical cells was analyzed. Depolarizing stimuli, such as 56 mM K+ exposure for 30 min, elicited an increase in immunoreactive somatostatin (IR-SS) release to the media and decreased SS mRNA levels. These were increased when exposure to depolarization stimuli was prolonged ...

It is well known that TCP does not fully utilize the available bandwidth in fast long-distance networks. This paper proposes S-shaped TCP (SS-TCP). The window growth function of SS-TCP is, in the steady state condition, S-shaped, and it can be divided into three regions. In region I, the window growth rate of SS-TCP is the same as that of standard TCP (STD-TCP). In region II, the window of SS-T...

PURPOSE To assess effectiveness and durability of Solifenacin (SS) versus tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) versus combination therapy (PTNS + SS) in women with overactive bladder syndrome (OAB). MATERIALS AND METHODS 105 women with OAB were divided randomly into three groups of 35 patients each. In group A women received SS, in group B women underwent PTNS, in group C women underwent combinati...
