For each alphabet Σn = {a1, a2, . . . , an}, linearly ordered by a1 < a2 < · · · < an, let Cn be the language of circular or cyclic shifts over Σn, i.e., Cn = {a1a2 · · · an−1an, a2a3 · · · ana1, . . . , ana1 · · · an−2an−1}. We study a few families of context-free grammars Gn (n ≥ 1) in Greibach normal form such that Gn generates Cn. The members of these grammar families are investigated with ...

Additives, like 1-chloronaphtalene (CN), are commonly used in Y6:PM6 solar cells as they lead to an increased power conversion efficiency. In this work, we investigate the influence of CN during spin coating dissolved chloroform via situ transmission setup. We show that, presence CN, film formation can be divided into two parts: one related evaporation and CN. This is mostly Y6 being find that ...

Our analyses of blood and urine samples from patients treated with gold-based antiarthritis drugs have shown that the dicyanogold(I) anion, [Au(CN)2]’, is a common metabolite. Previous work by Graham had suggested that [Au(CN)2]" would form as a result of interaction of any of the goldbased drugs with cyanide and that [Au(CN)2]" would be readily taken up by cells. Our own work with red blood ce...

N K and 3d atom L absorption spectra of hexacyano complexes in solid K Fe(CN) , Na Fe(CN) , K Cr(CN) , 2,3 4 6 4 6 3 6 K Mn(CN) , K Fe(CN) , and K Co(CN) have been measured by detecting the total electron yield. The N K spectra of the 3 6 3 6 3 6 complexes are very similar and differ only in intensity of the lowest-energy absorption band. The intensity of this feature 32 systematically decrease...

We consider the two-scale refinement equation f(x) = ∑N n=0 cnf(2x − n) with ∑ n c2n = ∑ n c2n+1 = 1 where c0, cN 6= 0 and the corresponding subdivision scheme. We study the convergence of the subdivision scheme and the cascade algorithm when all cn ≥ 0. It has long been conjectured that under such an assumption the subdivision algorithm converge, as well as the cascade algorithm converge unifo...

Congenital nystagmus (CN) is an aperiodic oscillatory eye movement disorder. Horizontal rectus tenotomy with simple re-attachment has been proposed as a therapy for CN. This therapy might affect vision and/or eye movements. Another paper deals with improvements in visual acuity. This and the companion paper examine changes in eye movements. In this study, we examined the effect of tenotomy on n...

In congenital nystagmus (CN) the threshold for detecting motion of visual objects is increased. To determine whether this increase is due to a deterioration of visual motion signals or whether visual-vestibular interactions (which are necessary to judge object-motion in space) are also involved we examined how CN patients use visual motion signals to evaluate self-motion in perceptual and behav...

BACKGROUND The Ca(2+)-dependent protein phosphatase enzyme calcineurin (Cn) (protein phosphatase 3) is best known for its role as director of the adaptive immune response. One of its principal substrates is the nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT), which translocates to the nucleus after dephosphorylation to mediate gene transcription. Drugs targeting Cn (the Cn inhibitors tacrolimus and ...

With the development of information technology, the cloud computing service has become a new paradigm for the business and industry. In a cloud computing environment, the computer network (CN) can be constructed as a multistate network with several possible states due to failure, partial failure, or maintenance of edges (physical lines) and nodes (switches or routers). In order to guarantee the...

For integers n and k, the density Hales-Jewett number cn,k is defined as the maximal size of a subset of [k] that contains no combinatorial line. We prove a lower bound on cn,k, similar to the lower bound in [16], but with better dependency on k. The bound in [16] is roughly cn,k/k n ≥ exp(−O(log n)2 ) and we show cn,k/k n ≥ exp(−O(log n)). The proof of the bound uses the well-known constructio...
