In this note, we show by counterexamples that some results of Qiu and colleagues [On the restudy of fuzzy complex analysis: Part I. The sequence and series of fuzzy complex numbers and their convergences, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 115 (2000) 445–450; On the restudy of fuzzy complex analysis: Part II.

The aim of this paper is to point out and correct some errors of two theorems for IFSs in Atanassov (Two theorems for intuitionistic fuzzy sets, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 2000) and bring forward a new theorem for IFSs. In the end, some elementary, but non-standard equalities between IFSs were formulated.

Using mid-infrared and radio criteria, we select a sample of candidate z ∼ 2 obscured quasars. Optical spectroscopy confirms about half of these as type-2 quasars, and modelling the population suggests 50-80% of the quasars are obscured. We find some flat radio spectrum type-2 quasars, and tentative evidence for obscuration unrelated to the torus. Using a similar sample, we also find evidence f...

Scooby-domain (sequence hydrophobicity predicts domains) is a fast and simple method to identify globular domains in protein sequence, based on the observed lengths and hydrophobicities of domains from proteins with known tertiary structure. The prediction method successfully identifies sequence regions that will form a globular structure and those that are likely to be unstructured. The method...

We present a database of the latest stellar models of the Y 2 (Yonsei-Yale) collaboration. This database contains the stellar evolutionary tracks from the pre-main-sequence birthline to the helium core flash that were used to construct the Y 2 isochrones (Yi et al. 2001; Kim et al. 2002). We also provide a simple interpolation routine that generates stellar tracks for given sets of parameters (...

Use of the resolution of Ewald operator method for computing long-range Coulomb and exchange interactions is presented. We show that the accuracy of this method can be controlled by a single parameter in a manner similar to that used by conventional algorithms that compute two-electron integrals. Significant performance advantages over conventional algorithms are observed, particularly for high...

does not satisfy (EP), because for x = 0.3, y = 0.5 and z = 0.5 we get I (x, I (y, z)) = 0.7 = 0.5 = I (y, I (x, z)). The corrected last two rows are provided in Table 1 here. In both of these cases the natural negation NI is the classical negation NC(x) = 1 − x. One can easily check that the first function satisfies (I1) and it does not satisfy (EP), because for x = 0.3, y = 1 and z = 0, we ge...

In this work we solve an open problem of U.Höhle [Problem 11, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 145 (2004) 471-479]. We show that the solution gives a characterization of all conditionally cancellative t-subnorms. Further, we give an equivalence condition for a conditionally cancellativite t-subnorm to be a t-norm and hence show that conditionally cancellativite t-subnorms whose natural negations are stro...

The "rules" governing protein structure and stability are still poorly understood. Important clues have come from proteins that operate under extreme conditions, because these clarify the physical constraints on proteins. One obvious extreme is pressure, but so far little is known of the behavior of proteins under pressure, largely for technical reasons. We have therefore developed new methodol...
