In this article we survey the existence of best proximity points for a class of non-self mappings which‎ satisfy a particular nonexpansiveness condition. In this way, we improve and extend a main result of Abkar and Gabeleh [‎A‎. ‎Abkar‎, ‎M‎. ‎Gabeleh‎, Best proximity points of non-self mappings‎, ‎Top‎, ‎21, (2013)‎, ‎287-295]‎ which guarantees the existence of best proximity points for nonex...

The renormalization of a quadratic-like map is studied. The threedimensional Yoccoz puzzle for an infinitely renormalizable quadratic-like map is discussed. For an unbranched quadratic-like map having the a priori complex bounds, the local connectivity of its Julia set is proved by using the three-dimensional Yoccoz puzzle. The generalized version of Sullivan’s sector theorem is discussed and i...

let g be a group. a subset x of g is a set of pairwise noncommuting elements if xy ̸= yx for any two distinct elements x and y in x. if |x| ≥ |y | for any other set of pairwise non-commuting elements y in g, then x is said to be a maximal subset of pairwise non-commuting elements. in this paper we determine the cardinality of a maximal subset of pairwise non-commuting elements in any non-abelian...

In this article, by Partitioning of designing space, optimization speed is tried to be increased by GA. To this end, designing space search is done in two steps which are global search and local search. To achieve this goal, according to meshing in FEM, firstly, the list of sections is divided to specific subsets. Then, intermediate member of each subset, as representative of subset, is defined...

BACKGROUND More efficient methods are needed to manufacture influenza vaccines. This trial compared the efficacy of cell culture-derived influenza vaccine (CCIV) and egg-derived trivalent inactivated vaccine (TIV) with placebo against laboratory-confirmed influenza illness in healthy adults in the United States, Finland, and Poland during the 2007-2008 influenza season. METHODS A total of 11,...
