Ever since the introduction of fuzzy sets by L. A. Zadeh [14], the fuzzy concept has invaded almost all branches of Mathematics. The concept of fuzzy topological space was introduced and developed by C.L. Chang [3] and since then many fuzzy topologists [1,6-13] have extended various notions in classical topology to fuzzy topological spaces. The concept of somewhat continuous functions was intro...

A subset A of a space X is called regular open if A = IntA, and regular closed if X\A is regular open, or equivalently, if A= IntA. A is called semiopen [16] (resp., preopen [17], semi-preopen [3], b-open [4]) ifA⊂ IntA (resp.,A⊂ IntA,A⊂ IntA ,A⊂ IntA∪ IntA). The concept of a preopen set was introduced in [6] where the term locally dense was used and the concept of a semi-preopen set was introd...

In conclusion, I may point out that Theorem II may be generalized by a weakening of the hypothesis (d) . (1) In the first place, continuity of [a, g] f with respect to the pair of variables a, /3 may be replaced by upper semi-continuity . This generalization requires no change in the proof . (2) This continuity (or upper semi-continuity) with respect to (a, /3) is used only to show that the set...

In some past works by the author and collaborators, the notion of ageing function of an exchangeable survival model was introduced and several properties of it were analyzed. Generally, the ageing function turns out to be a semi-copula. Here we focus attention on the special class of survival models whose ageing function is actually a copula. For pairs of models in this class we define a notion...

the effect of environmental factors on plant vegetation is different. therefore, it is necessary to evaluate role of these factors in medicinal plants growth, development and essential oil. this study was performed to investigate the effect of factors on qualitative and quantitative variations of the essential oil of verbascum songaricum in its habitats in central zagros mountains, iran in 2012...

dehbid mylonite nappes associated with the tutak gneiss dome as the zagros hinterland involved-basement window in the zagros orogenic belt has significant components of dextral sense of shear along the mylonite nappes and are related to the high proportion of simple shear relative to pure shear deformation. kinematic vorticity analysis (wk) was made in order to determination of relative amounts...

throughout prehistory, the cultures of iran and western asia differed in important respects. many of these differencescan be attributed to the different geographic and environmental conditions in the two regions. western iran is largely aheavily divided mountainous region with difficult access whereas mesopotamia is relatively flat and open to travel andtrade. the early holocene environment of ...

biofacies and palaeoecology of the limestone of the jahrum formation in the lar area in the southwest of iran (zagros basin) is addressed in this paper. our detailed analysis of biofacies and palaeoecology shows that the jahrum formation in the studied area were deposited in a carbonate open shelf dominated by heterozoan and, subordinately, photozoan skeletal assemblages. based on analysis of l...

the kashkan formation (paleocene to middle eocene), consists of conglomerate, sandstone, and siltstone in the zagros folded zone, southwest iran. type of the sedimentary facies, architectural elements and trace fossils show that kashkan deposits were formed in a low sinuosity braided stream system, with north to south flow direction. the formation displays coarsening-upward succession reflects ...

The solvability in Sobolev spaces is proved for divergence form second order elliptic equations in the whole space, a half space, and a bounded Lipschitz domain. For equations in the whole space or a half space, the leading coefficients a are assumed to be measurable in one direction and have small BMO semi-norms in the other directions. For equations in a bounded domain, additionally we assume...
