, or there are 22 possibilities for (a0, a1, a2, a3) found in [28]. It follows from [12], [28], [4], [1] that the inequality lct(X) > 2/3 holds in the case when X is singular and general. Example 1.4. Let X be a quasismooth hypersurface in P(a0, . . . , a4) of degree ∑4 i=0 ai − 1, where a0 6 a1 6 a2 6 a3 6 a4. Then lct(X) > 3/4 for 1936 values of (a0, a1, a2, a3, a4) (see [29]). Example 1.5. L...

The multiplicity of a point in the joint numerical range W (A1, A2, A3) ⊆ R is studied for n×n Hermitian matrices A1, A2, A3. The relative interior points of W (A1, A2, A3) have multiplicity greater than or equal to n−2. The lower bound n−2 is best possible. Extreme points and sharp points are studied. Similar study is given to the convex set V (A) := {xT Ax : x ∈ R, x x = 1} ⊆ C, where A ∈ Cn×...

The A3 report is a tool that Toyota Motor Corporation uses in problem-solving. We have adapted the A3 problemsolving report for use by hospital staff to improve their organizational processes, and have successfully applied it to numerous problems within a local hospital. We have previously presented a template for A3 reports. Here we describe the problem-solving process embedded in the tool, il...

In the present paper, making use of Gegenbauer polynomials, we initiate and explore a new family J?(?,?,s,t,q;h) holomorphic bi-univalent functions which were defined in unit disk D associated with q-Srivastava–Attiya operator. We establish bounds for |a2| |a3|, where a2, a3 are initial Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients. For investigate Fekete-Szegö inequality, special cases consequences.

Hepoxilins have been shown to release calcium from intracellular stores in human neutrophils [Dho, Grinstein, Corey, Su and Pace-Asciak (1990) Biochem. J. 266, 63-68; Laneuville, Reynaud, Grinstein, Nigam and Pace-Asciak (1993) Biochem. J. 295, 393-397]. In this paper we report that tritium-labelled hepoxilin A3 (8S) binds to broken neutrophil membranes in a time-, substrate- and temperature-de...

Melanoma patients were injected with various vaccines containing a MAGE-A3 peptide presented by HLA-DP4. Anti-MAGE-A3.DP4 T cells were not detectable in the blood before vaccination, but their frequencies after vaccination ranged from 2 x 10(-6) to 2 x 10(-3) among the CD4(+) blood T lymphocytes of the patients. The CD4(+) blood T lymphocytes that stained ex vivo with HLA-DP4 tetramers folded w...

The isolation of multiple Na+,K+-ATPase cDNAs from rat brain has led to the discovery of a family of alpha-isoform genes. Using A1 (alpha), A2 (alpha+), and A3 (alpha III) Na+,K+-ATPase gene probes, we have analyzed the distribution of Na+,K+-ATPase mRNAs in adult and fetal rat tissues by RNA blot and hybridization histochemistry. A1 Na+,K+-ATPase mRNA was found ubiquitously among various tissu...
