A k-digraph is an orientation of a multi-graph that is without loops and contains at most k edges between any pair of distinct vertices. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of non-negative integers in non-decreasing order to be a sequence of numbers, called marks (k-scores), attached to vertices of a k-digraph. We characterize irreducible and uniquely realizable mark se...

organisation KuzeyDog ̆a has for the past few years led studies of the carnivores in northeastern Turkey. With the first wolf-tracking project in Turkey, the research showed that these predators move much more widely than the confines of the protected areas. Within just two months they covered an area that was 13 times larger than the national park where they were caught and fitted with GPS/GSM ...

Purpose — To report on the impact and cost/benefit of implementing three EPrints digital repositories at the University of Otago, and to encourage others to follow suit. Design/methodology/approach — Three repositories were successfully implemented at the University of Otago using existing commodity hardware and free open source software. The first pilot repository was implemented within ten da...

Few people achieve distinction in their careers. Dr Mark L. Dyken has excelled in many—clinician, teacher, investigator, leader, editor—all at a superb level. Dr Dyken’s professional life began and continues as a masterful and compassionate clinician who loves teaching. Remarkably, 4 medical school classes at Indiana University voted him Outstanding Professor, and the university conferred upon ...

This paper provides an overview of the development of 3d modelling software and discusses the most popular techniques used in commercial projects today. The aim of this paper is to provide a student of 3d design with a background of historical knowledge of the development of 3d modelling programs and computer graphics and elaborates on the groundbreaking work carried out by some of the foremost...

Mark, a lad of eleven summers, was referred to the Psychological Clinic because of failure to pass a grade and for unsatisfactory school conduct. His social history revealed that he was the youngest of a motherless Jewish family of four. The balance of the family comprised three sisters and an orthodox father. His medical history was negative; conditions at birth and subsequent babyhood normal....

Absolute branching fractions for the 013 and D/4 decays D++I?‘e+v, , D++K’p+v,, D++K*‘e+v, , and D’+K*-e+v, are determined using completely reconstructed D D events at the y(3770). Reconstructed D’+K-e+v, decays are used to determine the pole mass of the f+($‘) form factor. Resonant K* production dominates the process D+Kxev, the K” polarization is measured. Limits on several Cabibbo suppressed...

Robert Bryant From Mechanics, to Algebra, to Geometry: The Notion of Holonomy. Abstract: Familiar mechanical phenomena, such as driving and parking a car, rolling a ball, and even the ability of falling cats to land on their feet (usually) are examples of an underlying mathematical concept that, in the 19th century, came to be known as ”holonomy.” As it became better understood, mathematicians ...

Renal Injuries Most renal injuries, except for those of the renal pedicle, are not acutely life threatening. Undiagnosed or improperly treated injuries, however, may cause significant morbidity. While the vast majority of blunt renal injuries will heal uneventfully with observation and conservative therapy, a significant number of renal injuries in combat will come from penetrating wounds and r...
