For a finite n-element set X, n ≥ 1, let N [X] denote the number of elements of X and let p(n) denote the number of all partitions of X. If Bn is a Boolean algebra with n atoms, let A(Bn) be the set of all atoms of Bn. It is known that there exists a bijective correspondence between the set S(Bn) of all subalgebras of Bn and the set of all partitions of A(Bn), i.e., N [S(Bn)] = p(n). The follow...

For p > 0, let (Bn) and p(Bn) denote, respectively, the p-Bloch and holomorphic p-Lipschitz spaces of the open unit ball Bn in Cn. It is known that (Bn) and 1−p(Bn) are equal as sets when p ∈ (0,1). We prove that these spaces are additionally normequivalent, thus extending known results for n= 1 and the polydisk. As an application, we generalize work byMadigan on the disk by investigating bound...

in this study, an efficient and facile technique for preparing graphene oxide in suspension and powder forms was presented based on a modification on hummers' method followed by an additional ultrasonic process. the method involved the provision of graphene oxide from graphite by reaction of potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid with stabilizing the medium complex. furthermore, this stu...

A new thermally conductive polyimide composite film has been developed. It is based on a dispersion of different particle sizes of boron nitride (BN) in a polyimide (PI) precursor, polyamic acid (PAA). Subsequently, thermal imidization of PAA at 350 degrees C produced the corresponding polyimide composites. 3-Mercaptopropionic acid was used as the surfactant to modify the BN surface for the dis...

In recent years, the number of studies investigating new directions in speech modeling that goes beyond the conventional HMM has increased considerably. One promising approach is to use Bayesian Networks (BN) as speech models. Full recognition systems based on Dynamic BN as well as acoustic models using BN have been proposed lately. Our group at ATR has been developing a hybrid HMM/BN model, wh...

The finding of an incompetent bladder neck (BN) at the time of posterior urethroplasty will necessarily exacerbate the already difficult situation. In such cases the aim of the treatment is not only to restore urethral continuity by end-to-end urethral anastomosis, but also to restore the function of the BN to maintain urinary continence. Fortunately, the incidence of incompetence of the BN at ...

Public health interventions are needed to reduce stigma towards bulimia nervosa (BN) to enhance appropriate treatment seeking. This study aimed to evaluate persuasiveness of health messages designed to increase mental health literacy about BN. A community sample of adults (N = 2092) completed self-report measures of knowledge about BN, stigma towards BN and ratings of persuasiveness of health m...

BACKGROUND There are few reports that describe the manifestation of bulimia nervosa (BN) among adolescents. Moreover, none make reference to the comparative clinical manifestation of adolescent BN and adolescent anorexia nervosa. Nor are any reports available of how distinct partial-syndrome BN cases are from those that meet full diagnostic criteria for BN. OBJECTIVES To describe 3 groups of ...
