in this paper we introduce the construction of free profinite products of profinite groups withcommuting subgroups. we study a particular case: the proper free profinite products of profinite groups with commuting subgroups. we prove some conditions for a free profinite product of profinite groups with commuting subgroups to be proper. we derive some consequences. we also compute profinite comp...

The perceived orientation of objects, gravity, and the body are biased to the left. Whether this leftward bias is attributable to biases in sensing or processing vestibular, visual, and body sense cues has never been assessed directly. The orientation in which characters are most easily recognized--the perceived upright (PU)--can be well predicted from a weighted vector sum of these sensory cue...

Patterns of reproductive isolation between species may provide insight into the mechanisms and evolution of barriers to interspecific gene exchange. We used data from published interspecific hybridization experiments from 14 genera of angiosperms in order to test for the presence of asymmetrical barriers to gene exchange. Reproductive isolation was examined at three life-history stages: the abi...

The traditional risk factors of hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and tobacco exposure identify a subset of patients at greater cardiovascular risk. A variety of clinical phenotypes, biochemical markers, and genetic polymorphisms have been proposed to explain the variance in risk not explained by the traditional factors. Notably, all of the traditional risk factors, as well...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we are interested in studying subgroups of topologized fundamental groups and their influences on generalized covering maps‎. ‎More precisely‎, ‎we find some relationships between generalized covering subgroups and the other famous subgroups of the fundamental group equipped with the compact-open topology and the whisker topology‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we present some conditions unde...
