water salinity and drought are the major abiotic stresses limiting turf grass growth. on the other hand, shortage of waterresources and salinity of water and soil in the arid and semi-arid zones such as iran, are the restricting factors in developinglawn turf grasses. an experiment was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of water salinity and deficit irrigation ontall fescue (festuca aru...

In this paper our focus is to study certain covering properties in topological spaces by using semi-open covers. A part of this article deals with Rothberger-type covering properties. The notions of s-Rothberger, almost s-Rothberger, star s-Rothberger, almost star s-Rothberger, strongly star s-Rothberger spaces are defined and corresponding properties are investigated.

In this paper we study the nonsmooth semi-infinite programming problem with inequality constraints. First, we consider the notions of local cone approximation $Lambda$ and $Lambda$-subdifferential. Then, we derive the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions under the Abadie and the Guignard constraint qualifications.

We transfer the lower semi-continuity of Siegel disks with fixed Brjuno type rotation numbers to geometric limits. Here, we restrict to Lavaurs maps associated to quadratic polynomials with a parabolic fixed point.

The semi-Markov process often provides a better framework than the classical Markov process for the analysis of events with multiple states. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we show that in the presence of right censoring, when the right end-point of the support of the censoring time is strictly less than the right end-point of the support of the semi-Markov kernel, the transition p...

We rigorously derive multi-pulse interaction laws for the semi-strong interactions in a family of singularly-perturbed and weaklydamped reaction-diffusion systems in one space dimension. Most significantly, we show the existence of a manifold of quasi-steady N-pulse solutions and identify a “normal-hyperbolicity” condition which balances the asymptotic weakness of the linear damping against the...

We show that the payoff to barrier options can be replicated when the underlying price process is driven by the difference of two independent Poisson processes. The replicating strategy employs simple semi-static positions in co-terminal standard options. We note that classical dynamic replication using just the underlying asset and a riskless asset is not possible in this context. When the und...

In this paper, we propose a duality theory for semi-infinite linear programming problems under uncertainty in the constraint functions, the objective function, or both, within the framework of robust optimization. We present robust duality by establishing strong duality between the robust counterpart of an uncertain semi-infinite linear program and the optimistic counterpart of its uncertain La...

soil compaction has become a widespread problem in the world and is one of the factors involved in land degradation and declining crop yields, especially in the arid and semi-arid agriculture. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of subsoil compaction on morphological, physiological and agronomic aspects of wheat .the research was carried out in the experimental farms of anb...
