We study a class of asymptotically cylindrical Ricci-flat Kähler metrics arising on quasiprojective manifolds. Using the Calabi–Yau geometry and analysis and the Kodaira–Kuranishi–Spencer theory and building up on results of N.Koiso, we show that under rather general hypotheses any local asymptotically cylindrical Ricci-flat deformations of such metrics are again Kähler, possibly with respect t...

Rapid Growth Problems The problems discussed here occur in the younger, rapidly growing German Shepherd. As German Shepherds are far more angulated than most breeds, they can appear to be having serious problems when in many cases they are going through fairly normal stages of development. Common problems are: 1. Excessive looseness of hocks, can be secondary to excessive depth of hindquarter a...

Posterior tibial tendon insufficiency (PTTI) is nowadays considered to be the main cause of adult-acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD). The purpose of this study is to report the outcomes of tendoscopic treatment of tibialis poste- rior tendon (TP) in eleven patients with stage 1 or 2 PTTI and failed prior conservative treatment. Tendoscopy was carried out as a solitary procedure in 8 patients, w...
