By expanding squares, we prove several Hardy inequalities with two critical singularities and constants which explicitly depend upon the distance between the two singularities. These inequalities involve the L norm. Such results are generalized to an arbitrary number of singularities and compared with standard results given by the IMS method. The generalized version of Hardy inequalities with s...

Using Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS), we have investigated the properties of the DX center in GaAsP for the whole range of alloy composition x. We have determined the variation of the defect characteristics (thermal ionization energy Ei, barrier for electron capture B, and energy level location EDX) versus x. From the relationship that exists between Ei, B and EDX, and between B and D...

BACKGROUND Fibrin deposition and mesangial cell proliferation are frequently observed in the active type of mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis. Coagulation factors, such as factor V and factor Xa are colocalized with fibrin in the mesangial areas in active type of IgA nephropathy with mesangial cell proliferation. In this study, therefore, we studied the role of factor Xa and its receptor...

and Applied Analysis 3 In order to describe our main result, we need to define Λ0 ( 2 − q ( p − q‖a‖L∞ ) 2−q / p−2 ( p − 2 ( p − q)‖b ‖Lq∗ ) S p 2−q /2 p−2 q/2 p > 0, 1.3 where ‖a‖L∞ supx∈RNa x , ‖b ‖Lq∗ ∫ RN |b x |qdx 1/q∗ and Sp is the best Sobolev constant for the imbedding of H1 R into L R . Theorem 1.1. Assume that a1 , b1 b2 hold. If λ ∈ 0, q/2 Λ0 , Ea,λb admits at least two positive solu...

Let {Lt ; (x, t) ∈ R1 ×R1 +} denote the local time of Brownian motion. Our main result is to show that for each fixed t ∫ (L t − Lt )3 dx− 12h ∫ (L t − Lt )Lt dx h2 L =⇒ √ 192 (∫ (Lt ) 3 dx )1/2 η as h → 0, where η is a normal random variable with mean zero and variance one that is independent of Lt . This generalizes our previous result for the second moment. We also explain why our approach w...

Methods We present 8 children with suspected hypersensitivity reaction after parenteral MP (6 children), DX inhalation (1 child) and inhafluticasone propionate (FL) (1 child). Prick and intradermal skin testing with MP, HC, DX and FL were performed. In case of negative skin tests provocation tests were performed. Basophil activation test (flow cytometry analyses of basophil CD63 surface express...

Step-pools sequences are increasingly used to restore stream channels. This increase corresponds to significant advances in theory for step-pools in recent years. The need for step-pools in stream restoration arises as urban development encroaches into steep terrain in response to population pressures, as stream channels in lower-gradient areas require stabilization due to hydrological alterati...

We studied, theoretically, the optical absorption spectra for a slightly asymmetric double quantum well (DQW), in the presence of electric and magnetic fields. Recent experimental results for a 10.18/3.82/9.61 nm GaAs Al .33Ga.67As DQW show clearly the different behavior in the luminescence peaks for the indirect exciton IX and left direct exciton DX as a function of the external electric field...
