Explanations for the cognitive basis of the Müller-Lyer illusion are still frustratingly mixed. To date, Day's (1989) theory of perceptual compromise has received little empirical attention. In this study, we examine the merit of Day's hypothesis for the Müller-Lyer illusion by biasing participants toward global or local visual processing through exposure to Navon (1977) stimuli, which are know...

In A multidatahase system integrates a set of autonomous database systems to provide global database functions. This paper investigates a correctness criterion for the execution of local and global transactions in the error-prone multidatahase environment. The compensation technique is used to preserve the semantic atomicity of global transactions. We examine in detail the effects created by th...

geometrical structure, nuclear magnetic resonance (n1,1it) chemical shielding tensors, and chemical shiftsof silicon and carbon nucler are investigated for twn infinite size zigzag and armchair single-walled siliconcarbide nanotabes (sicnts). geometrical structures of sients, sit bonds and bond angles of st and cvertices in both zigzag and armchair nanotubes, indicate that bond lengths are appr...

‎We illustrate a method of computing Langlands-Shahidi local coefficients via the theory of types and covers‎. ‎The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a method of computing the Langlands-Shahidi local coefficients using the theory of types and covers.

One-pot, four-component procedure for the synthesis of a small library of new chiral spiro- oxindolopyrrolidines with high regio-, diastereo- (>99:1 dr), and enantioselectivity (up to 80% ee) is described. In this process, the regio- and stereochemical 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides, which were generated insitu by the reaction of isatin derivatives and sarcosin,with optically ac...

Some recent developments in the study of the Cauchy problem for the Euler equations for compressible fluids are reviewed. The local and global well-posedness for smooth solutions is presented, and the formation of singularity is exhibited; then the local and global well-posedness for discontinuous solutions, including the BV theory and the L∞ theory, is extensively discussed. Some recent develo...

We develop the general theory of topometric spaces, i.e., topological spaces equipped with a well-behaved lower semi-continuous metric function. Spaces of global and local types in continuous logic are the motivating examples for the study of such spaces. In particular, we develop a theory of Cantor-Bendixson analysis of topometric spaces, which can serve as a basis for the study of local stabi...

Quantitative analysis of probabilistic systems has been studied mainly from the global model checking point of view. In the global model-checking, the goal of verification is to decide the probability of satisfaction of a given property for all reachable states in the state space of the system under investigation. On the other hand, in local model checking approach the probability of satisfacti...
