In 1977 Kervaire and Murthy presented three conjectures regarding K0ZCpn , where Cpn is the cyclic group of order p n and p is a semi-regular prime that is p does not divide h (regular p does not divide the class number h = hh). The Mayer-Vietoris exact sequence provides the following short exact sequence 0 → Vn → PicZCpn → ClQ(ζn−1)× PicZCpn−1 → 0 Here ζn−1 is a primitive p -th root of unity. ...

This paper addresses the five major structural issues on the agenda of the 1996 Intergovernmental Conference (IGC) of the Member States of the European Union: the option of replacing the treaty framework by a European constitution; the issue of fundamental rights in the Union; the future of the three-pillar structure; the puzzling question of how to allow for variations in European integration ...

The algebra su 2 is derived from two commuting quon algebras for which the parameter q is a root of unity. This leads to a polar decomposition of the shift operators J + and J − of the group SU 2 (with J + = J † − = HUr where H is Hermitean and Ur unitary). The Wigner-Racah algebra of SU 2 is developed in a new basis arising from the simultanenous diagonalization of the commuting operators J 2 ...

In his work on Wiener-Hopf determinants, A. Böttcher came across what he termed a “mysterious” identity that evaluates a certain sum of a rational function of a primitive root of unity in terms of the Barnes Gfunction, which was later generalized by Basor and Forrester. We give a direct proof of Böttcher’s identity and its many generalizations by using elements of the theory of symmetric functi...

Watermark recovery is often based on cross-correlating images with pseudo-noise sequences, as access to un-watermarked originals is not required. Successful recovery of these watermarks is determined by the (periodic or aperiodic) sequence autoand cross-correlation properties. This paper presents several methods of extending the dimensionality of 1D sequences in order to utilise the advantages ...

Unity: Unity is a widely-used cross-platform game develop system. It consists of a game engine and an integrated development environment (IDE). It can be used to develop games for many different platforms, including PCs, consoles, mobile devices, and deployment on the Web. In this lecture, we will present the basic elements of Unity. However, this is a complex system, and we will not have time ...

in this paper, we try to determine the status of the relation between dahr world and matrial world. the conclusion shows the subjective duality and objective unity of dahr and material entities. two interpretations of this duality can be suggested. in the first interpretation, this unity, and the duality supposed, are explained on the basis of different intellectual cognition of immaterial and ...

this article studies the quranic view on the unity among human beings and the causes which destroy the unity. according to the quran human beings are created from the same essence , all being created from adam and eve , but such sameness and unity disappeared because of different reasons. to re-unite the ummah the quran suggests brotherhood and kindness among moslems, and respet to other religi...

One trivial zero phenomenon for p-adic analytic function is considered. We then prove that the first derivative of this function is essentially the Kummer class associated with p. 1. Introduction. In this paper we always fix an odd prime p > 2. For n ≥ 1, fix a p n th primitive root of unity ζ p n such that ζ
