The non-commutative analytic Toeplitz algebra is the wot– closed algebra generated by the left regular representation of the free semigroup on n generators. We develop a detailed picture of the algebraic structure of this algebra. In particular, we show that there is a canonical homomorphism of the automorphism group onto the group of conformal automorphisms of the complex n-ball. The k-dimensi...

BACKGROUND Trends in rhinoplasty techniques have seen a significant shift from closed to open over the last decade.1,2 The ideal surgical approach for rhinoplasty continues to be debated amongst aesthetic surgeons. Each technique has its merits. Open rhinoplasty is deemed the procedure of choice in all but the simplest rhinoplasties, reserving the traditional closed approach for hump reduction ...

An important predictor of historical sound change, functional load, fails to capture insights from speech perception. Building on ideal observer models of word recognition, we devise a new definition of functional load that incorporates both a priori expectedness and perceptual information. We explore this new measure with a simple model and find that it outperforms tra-

In the ideal topological spaces (X, ?, I) and (Y, J, ?), we define (I, J)-irresolute function, weakly-(I, J)-irresolute, strongly-(I, functions, semi-I-open sets quasi-H-closed modulo I. We discuss properties of function mapping connected, closed, compact I semi-I-isolated points. J)-Homeomorphisim on presemi-I-open closure subsets are explored in this paper.

The purpose of this paper is to present a theoretic and numerical study of utilizing squeezing and phase shift in coherent feedback control of linear quantum optical systems. A quadrature representation with built-in phase shifters is proposed for such systems. Fundamental structural characterizations of linear quantum optical systems are derived in terms of the new quadrature representation. T...

1.2. Proposition. — π : PnA → SpecA is a closed morphism. Proof. Suppose Z ↪→ PnA is a closed subset. We wish to show that π(Z) is closed. Suppose y / ∈ π(Z) is a closed point of SpecA. We’ll check that there is a distinguished open neighborhood D(f) of y in SpecA such that D(f) doesn’t meet π(Z). (If we could show this for all points of π(Z), we would be done. But I prefer to concentrate on cl...

An ideal of polynomials is symmetric if it closed under permutations variables. We relate general ideals to the so called Specht generated by all a given shape. show connection between leading monomials in and contained ideal. This provides applications several contexts. Most notably, this gives information about solutions corresponding set equations. From another perspective, restricts isotypi...

Let R be an integral domain and let Q denote the quotient field of R. We investigate the structure of R-submodules of Q that are Q-irreducible, or completely Q-irreducible. One of our goals is to describe the integral domains that admit a completely Q-irreducible ideal, or a nonzero Q-irreducible ideal. If R has a nonzero finitely generated Q-irreducible ideal, then R is quasilocal. If R is int...

Suppose M is a maximal ideal of a commutative integral domain R and that some power Mn of M is finitely generated. We show that M is finitely generated in each of the following cases: (i) M is of height one, (ii) R is integrally closed and htM = 2, (iii) R = K[X; S̃] is a monoid domain over a field K, where S̃ = S ∪ {0} is a cancellative torsion-free monoid such that ⋂∞ m=1 mS = ∅, and M is the m...

Let I be a monomial ideal in the polynomial ring S = K[x1, . . . , xn]. We study the Stanley depth of the integral closure I of I. We prove that for every integer k ≥ 1, the inequalities sdepth(S/Ik) ≤ sdepth(S/I) and sdepth(Ik) ≤ sdepth(I) hold. We also prove that for every monomial ideal I ⊂ S there exist integers k1, k2 ≥ 1, such that for every s ≥ 1, the inequalities sdepth(S/I1) ≤ sdepth(S...
