Let G be the universal cover of the group of automorphisms of a symmetric tube domain and let P = L N be its Shilov boundary parabolic subgroup. This paper attaches an irreducible unitary representation of G to each of the (finitely many) L-orbits on n*. The Hilbert space of the representation consists of functions on the orbit which are square-integrable with respect to a certain L-equivariant...

We consider the following question: given A ∈ SL(2,R), which potentials q for the second order Sturm-Liouville problem have A as its Floquet multiplier? More precisely, define the monodromy map μ taking a potential q ∈ L2([0, 2π]) to μ(q) = Φ̃(2π), the lift to the universal cover G = ̃ SL(2,R) of SL(2,R) of the fundamental matrix map Φ : [0, 2π] → SL(2,R), Φ(0) = I, Φ(t) = (

background: this was a cross-sectional study on the gender differences in weight-control behavior. the strategies used, weight status, weight satisfaction, and proportion of individuals attempting to lose weight among 233 government employees (104 men and 129 women) working in the federal government building in penang, malaysia, were assessed. methods: anthropometric indicators such as body mas...

This paper presents a multiobjective continuous covering location problem in fuzzy environment. Because of uncertain covering radius, possibility of covering concept is introduced.Since, the uncertainty may cause risk of uncovering customers; the problemis formulated as a risk management model. The presented model is an extension of the discrete covering location models tocontinuous space. Two ...

objective: to compare outcome of patients with burns covering less than 15% of total body surface area(tbsa) undergoing early excision and grafting or delayed skin grafting. method : this was a non-randomized clinical trial including 54 patients with less than 15% tbsa burn referring to ghotboddin hospital of shiraz. they were assigned to two study groups, each group including 27 patients: the ...

A citation analysis was done on literature cited in 1978, 1980, and 1982 issues of the American Journal of Occupational Therapy. The results confirmed two impressions. The body of literature specific to occupational therapy is very small. But the body of literature potentially relevant to the work of the occupational therapist is very large, covering many disciplines. An unexpected finding was ...

We prove the following conjecture of G. Fejes Toth, G. Kuperberg, and W. Kuperberg: every body K in either n-dimensional Euclidean or n-dimensional hyperbolic space admits a completely saturated packing and a completely reduced covering. Also we prove the following counterintuitive result: for every ǫ > 0, there is a body K in hyperbolic n-space which admits a completely saturated packing with ...

Comprehensive whole-body counter surveys covering over 93% of the school children between the ages of 6 and 15 in Miharu town, Fukushima Prefecture, have been conducted for three consecutive years, in 2011, 2012 and 2013. Although the results of a questionnaire indicate that approximately 60% of the children have been regularly eating local or home-grown rice, in 2012 and 2013 no child was foun...

We estimate the number and ratio of negative homothetic copies of a d-dimensional convex body C sufficient for the covering of C. If the number of those copies is not very large, then our estimates are better than recent estimates of Rogers and Zong. Particular attention is paid to the 2-dimensional case. It is proved that every planar convex body can be covered by two copies of ratio −4 3 (thi...
