A set of type (m, n) K is a set of points of a finite linear space with the property that each line of the linear space meets K in either m or n points. In this paper, sets of type (m,n) in finite linear spaces with constant point degree are studied, and some characterization results are given.

The cosmological equations suggested by the non-relativistic renormalizable gravitational theory proposed by Hořava are considered. It is pointed out that the early universe cosmology has features that may give an alternative to inflation and the theory may be able to escape singularities.

font-independent character descriptions are important for a systematic approach to automated and semi-automated font design. This is particularly so for large character sets such as Kanji. The paper defines a completely coordinate-independent notation for Kanji, which contains all the necessary information to produce legible character sketches.

In this note we present the worst-character rule, an efficient variation of the bad-character heuristic for the exact string matching problem, firstly introduced in the well-known Boyer-Moore algorithm. Our proposed rule selects a position relative to the current shift which yields the largest average advancement, according to the characters distribution in the text. Experimental results show t...

In Kannada language there are more than 510 character sets to be recognized including the vowels, consonants, consonant modified by vowel and consonant conjuncts the classification of characters becomes difficult. In this paper we present a new classification method of Kannada characters which can be used as a preliminary step for recognition. An analysis of Kannada characters was done and synt...
