The selection process of team leaders is fundamental if the effectiveness of teams is to be guaranteed. Human values have proven to be an important factor in the behaviour of individuals and leaders. The aim of this study is twofold. The first is to validate Schwartz's survey of human values. The second is to determine whether there are any relationships between the values held by individuals a...

The spectrum of a Gelfand pair (K nN, K), where N is a nilpotent group, can be embedded in a Euclidean space. We prove that in general, the Schwartz functions on the spectrum are the Gelfand transforms of Schwartz K-invariant functions on N . We also show the converse in the case of the Gelfand pair (SO(3) n N3,2, SO(3)), where N3,2 is the free two-step nilpotent Lie group with three generators...

In this paper, some products of distributions are derived. The results are obtained in Colombeau algebra of generalized functions, which is the most relevant algebraic construction for dealing with Schwartz distributions. Colombeau algebra [Formula: see text] contains the space [Formula: see text] of Schwartz distributions as a subspace, and has a notion of 'association' that allows us to evalu...

We prove that the Harish-Chandra’s Schwartz space associated with a discrete subgroup of a semisimple Lie group is a dense subalgebra of the reduced C∗-algebra of the discrete subgroup. Then, we prove that the reduced C∗-norm is controlled by the norm of the Harish-Chandra’s Schwartz space. This inequality is weaker than property RD and holds for any discrete group acting isometrically, properl...

Schwartz & Yeh's method and Wilkinson's method are widely used to compute the moments of the total co-channel interference in wireless communication, usually modeled as the sum of lognormal random variables. The accuracy of these methods has been studied in previous works, under the assumption of having all summands signals (individual interference signals) identically distributed. Such assumpt...

BACKGROUND Chondrodystrophic myotonia or Schwartz-Jampel syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by myotonia and skeletal dysplasia. It may be progressive in nature. Recently, the gene responsible for Schwartz-Jampel syndrome has been found and the defective protein it encodes leads to abnormal cartilage development and anomalous neuromuscular activity. CASE PRESENTATION We report t...
