Horn recursion is a term used to describe when non-vanishing products of Schubert classes in the cohomology of flag varieties G/P are characterized by inequalities parameterized by similar non-vanishing products in the cohomology of “smaller” flag varieties. We consider the partial flag variety SLn/P and find that H ∗(SLn/P ) exhibits Horn recursion on a certain deformation of the cup product. ...

With the constant increase in poultry meat consumption worldwide and the large variety of poultry meat products and consumer demand, ensuring the microbial safety of poultry carcasses and cuts is essential. In the present review, we address the bacterial contamination of poultry meat from the slaughtering steps to the use-by-date of the products. The different contamination sources are identifi...

for (t,x) ∈ [0,+∞)×Rd, d ≥ 3, where n, u = (u1,u2, . . . ,ud) ( represents transpose) denote the density and velocity of the flow, respectively, and the constant τ is the momentum relaxation time for some physical flow. Here, we assume that 0 < τ ≤ 1. The pressure p(n) satisfies p(n)= An, and A > 0 is a physical constant. The symbols∇, ⊗ are the gradient operator and the symbol for the tensor p...

Together with spaces of constant sectional curvature and products of a real line with a manifold of constant curvature, the socalled Egorov spaces and ε-spaces exhaust the class of n-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds admitting a group of isometries of dimension at least 1 2n(n − 1) + 1, for almost all values of n [Patrangenaru V., Geom. Dedicata 102 (2003), 25–33]. We shall prove that the curvat...

Under conditions where cytochalasin B induces ATPase activity of monomeric actin (0.3 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 30 microns cytochalasin B, 1 mM ATP) the rate constant of the exchange of actin-bound epsilon-ATP for free ATP is about 4-6 times faster than steady state ATPase activity. When a stoichiometric ATP-actin complex is extracted with PCA (single turnover experiment) the apparent rate constant ...

BACKGROUND Platelet-rich products (PRP) are widely used for rotator cuff tears. However, whether platelet-rich products produce superior clinical or radiological outcomes is controversial. This study aims to use meta-analysis to compare clinical and radiological outcomes between groups with or without platelet-rich products. METHODS The Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane library databases were sear...

Horn recursion is a term used to describe when non-vanishing products of Schubert classes in the cohomology of complex flag varieties are characterized by inequalities parameterized by similar non-vanishing products in the cohomology of “smaller” flag varieties. We consider the type A partial flag variety and find that its cohomology exhibits a Horn recursion on a certain deformation of the cup...

We are interested in the problem of curve identification, motivated by problems in handwriting recognition. Various geometric approaches have been proposed, with one of the most popular being “elastic matching.” We examine the problem using distances defined by inner products on functional spaces. In particular we examine the Legendre and Legendre-Sobolev inner products. We show that both of th...

A striking characteristic of high-tech products is the rapid decrease of their quality-adjusted prices. Empirical studies show that the rate of decrease of QAPs is typically not constant over time; QAPs decrease rapidly at early stages of the product and then the rate of decrease tapers o®. Studies also suggest that the QAP is positively correlated with the rate of product introductions: The fa...
