LEMMA . At most (kn)'g"ulk k-sets Sc [ n ] have IP(S)I <u . Proof. Let a,< . . . < a k denote the elements of S. Call i doubling if P(a, , . . ., a i) has double the size of P(a, , . . ., a i 1 ) . There are at most lg u doubling i. Hence there are at most k'g" choices for doubling positions i and at most n'g" choices for the values a i . If i is not doubling then a i = x y, where x, y E P(a, ,...

2014 An experimental model of a modification of the Fermi acceleration problem is described. Evidence is presented for three consecutive bifurcations on the period doubling route of the system from regular to chaotic behaviour. J.

In this note we give the definition of the ”doubling operation” for simple polytopes, find the formula for the h-polynomial of new polytope. As an application of this operation we establish the relationship between moment-angle manifolds and their real analogues and prove the toral rank conjecture for moment-angle manifolds ZP . Let P be a simple n-dimensional polytope with m facets: P = {x ∈ R...

It is an open question whether the visual transformations guiding human actions are similar to those generating visual perception. The Action-Perception model assumes a strict division of labor: the ventral cortical stream generates perception while the dorsal stream guides actions. However, only skilled and natural actions are assumed to be under dorsal control, while awkward and left-handed a...

The traditional approach to these facts assumes that CLLD involves movement, while HT does not.1 Other approaches, like the one recently developed by Frascarelli (2003), assume base generation of CLLD (much as HT) combined with the hypothesis that sensitivity to islands should come from the fact that the dislocated phrase of CLLD undergoes further movement from the left peripheral topic positio...

Antidepressants as a commodity have been remarkably little-studied by economists. This study shows in new data for 27 European countries that 8% of people (and 10% of those middle-aged) take antidepressants each year. The probability of antidepressant use is greatest among those who are middle-aged, female, unemployed, poorly educated, and divorced or separated. A hill-shaped age pattern is fou...

Humans and monkeys show intermittent arm movements while tracking moving targets. This intermittency has been explained by postulating either a psychological refractory period after each movement and/or an error deadzone, an area surrounding the target within which movements are not initiated. We present a technique to detect and quantify the size of this deadzone, using a compensatory tracking...

In this paper, we introduce the doubling transformation, a structure-preserving transformation for symplectic pencils, and present its basic properties. Based on these properties, a unified convergence theory for the structure-preserving doubling algorithms for a class of Riccati-type matrix equations is established, using only elementary matrix theory.

Does response selection select words or letters in skilled typewriting? Typing performance involves hierarchically organized control processes: an outer loop that controls word level processing, and an inner loop that controls letter (or keystroke) level processing. The present study addressed whether response selection occurs in the outer loop or the inner loop by using the psychological refra...

Acute monocytic leukemia (AML M5 or AMoL) is one of the several types of leukemia that are still awaiting cures. The use of chemotherapy for cancer management can be harmful to normal cells in the vicinity of the target leukemia cells. This study assessed the potency of the extracts from lesser galangal, turmeric, and ginger against AML M5 to use the suitable fractions in neutraceuticals. Aqueo...
