‎The global generalized minimum residual (Gl-GMRES)‎ ‎method is examined for solving the generalized Sylvester matrix equation‎ ‎[sumlimits_{i = 1}^q {A_i } XB_i = C.]‎ ‎Some new theoretical results are elaborated for‎ ‎the proposed method by employing the Schur complement‎. ‎These results can be exploited to establish new convergence properties‎ ‎of the Gl-GMRES method for solving genera...

actors working in global health often portray it as an enterprise grounded in principled concerns, advanced by individuals and organizations who draw on scientific evidence to pursue health equity. this portrait is incomplete. it is also a field of power relations—a social arena in which actors claim and draw on expertise and moral authority to gain influence and pursue career, organizational a...

BACKGROUND Investigation of global clustering patterns across regions is very important in spatial data analysis. Moran's I is a widely used spatial statistic for detecting global spatial patterns such as an east-west trend or an unusually large cluster. Here, we intend to improve Moran's I for evaluating global clustering patterns by including the weight function in the variance, introducing a...

introduction: micap is a new notation in which the teeth are indicated by letters (i-incisor, c-canine, p-premolar, m-molar) and numbers [1,2,3] which are written superscript and subscript on the relevant letters. fdi tooth notation is a two digit system where one digit shows quadrant and the second one shows the tooth of the quadrant. this study aimed to compare the short term retention of kno...

It has been suggested that large-scale climate changes, mostly due to atmospheric injection of "greenhouse gases" connected with fossil-fired energy production, should be forestalled by internationally-agreed reductions in, e.g., electricity generation. The potential economic impacts of such limitations are obviously large: ≥$1011/year. We propose that for far smaller — <1% — costs, the mean th...

I will begin by explaining an optimal tableau-based algorithm for checking ALC-satisfiability which uses “global caching” and which appears to work well in practice. The algorithm settles a conjecture that “global caching can lead to optimality”. I will then explain how “global caching” can be extended to “global state caching” for inverse roles, thereby extending the result to ALCI-satisfiabil...

We examine the Navier-Stokes equations (NS) on a thin 3-dimen-sional domain n. = Q2 x (0, e), whereQ2 is a suitable bounded domain inlR? and e is a small, positive, real parameter. We consider these equationswith various homogeneous boundary conditions, especially spatially periodicboundary conditions. We show that there are large sets ~(e) in HI (n.) andY(e) in WI,oo«O,...
