This pilot study was performed to produce data of the Children's Dietary Life Safety (CDLS) Index which is required by the Special Act on Safety Management of Children's Dietary Life and to evaluate the CDLS Index for 7 metropolitan cities and 9 provinces in Korea. To calculate the CDLS Index score, data regarding the evaluation indicators in the children's food safety domain and children's nut...

In the present article we examine in details global deformations of surfaces of revolution via the modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) equations and the first integrals, of these deformations, regarded as invariants of surfaces. It is a sequel to our paper [8] where the general case of modified Novikov–Veselov (mNV) deformations is considered. Since the main problems are still open, we show how t...

In this article a topographical description of the Cueva Mayor Cueva de Silo cave system is provided, including a more detailed topography of the Sala de los Ciclopes Sala de las Oseras-Sima de los Huesos sector. The history of the excavations and discoveries of human and carnivore fossils in Sima de los Huesos and adjacent passages is briefly reported, as well as the increase, throughout the s...

In this Letter, we analyze the structure of linearization operators of the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) hierarchy equations expanded around single-soliton solutions. We uncover the remarkable property that these linearization operators can be factored into the integro-differential operator which generates this hierarchy and the linearization operator of the KdV equation. An important consequence of ...

De ne a C* algebra A over the quaternions H as follows: First, A should be an algebra in the usual sense over the reals R, and A should be a left and right vector space over H, where the di erent senses of scalar multiplication by a real agree. Then extend associativity by h(ab) = (ha)b, (ah)b = a(hb), (ab)h = a(bh), and (ha)i = h(ai), where (as always here) a, b ∈ A and h, i ∈ H. Let ∗ be an i...

Solitons play a fundamental role in the evolution of general initial data for quasilinear dispersive partial differential equations, such as the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), nonlinear Schrödinger, and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations. These integrable equations have linear dispersion and the solitons have infinite support. We have derived and investigate a new KdV-like Hamiltonian partial diffe...

Introduction Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a group of genetically distinct arrhythmogenic disorders resulting in abnormal cardiac sodium and potassium ion channels causing delayed repolarization of the heart. This syndrome can present clinically as syncope, seizures, or sudden cardiac death secondary to its characteristic ventricular arrhythmia of torsades de pointes. The clinical and electrocardi...
