The Carnegie classification system has served as a framework for research on colleges and universities for more than 30 years. Today, the system’s developers are exploring criteria that more effectively differentiate among institutions. One approach being considered is classifying institutions based on students’ educational experiences. This study explored whether it is possible to create a typ...

We discuss the problem of global invertibility of nonlinear maps defined on the finite dimensional Euclidean space via differential tests. We provide a generalization of the Fujisawa-Kuh global inversion theorem and introduce a generalized ratio condition which detects when the pre-image of a certain class of linear manifolds is non-empty and connected. In particular, we provide conditions that...

kuh-e-siah is located in the north of gavkhuni lagoon and east of the varzaneh (se of isfahan) and is a part of urumieh-dokhtar magmatic arc (udma). the volcanic rocks of this area are vesicular basalt and basaltic andesite with late miocene age. the most common textures of these rocks are porphyry, microlitic porphyritic, hyaloporphyric and vesicular. plagioclase, olivine and clinopyroxene are...
