If a pure simplicial complex is partitionable, then its h-vector has combinatorial interpretation in terms of any partitioning the complex. Given non-partitionable Δ, we construct Γ⊇Δ same dimension such that both Γ and relative (Γ,Δ) are partitionable. This allows us to rewrite as difference two h-vectors partitionable complexes, giving an analogous By contrast, for given Δ it not always possi...

I thank Drs. Quintner and Cohen for their interest in my editorial [1] about the study by Albrect et al. [2]. Drs. Quintner and Cohen have raised several concerns about my discussion of the implications of that study, especially of the concept that peripheral nociception by myofascial trigger points initiates central sensitization. They object to the idea that peripheral nerve sensitization is ...

Advances in computational linguistics and discourse processing have made it possible to automate many language- and text-processing mechanisms. We have developed a computer tool called Coh-Metrix, which analyzes texts on over 200 measures of cohesion, language, and readability. Its modules use lexicons, part-of-speech classifiers, syntactic parsers, templates, corpora, latent semantic analysis,...

We show that the product of any two nonatomic Maharam algebras adds a Cohen real. As a corollary of this and a result of Shelah [14] we obtain that the product of any two nonatomic ccc Souslin forcing notions adds a Cohen real.

We show that all posets of size א1 may have to add a Cohen real and develop some forcing machinery for obtaining this sort of results.

We give a consistent example of a zero-dimensional separable metrizable space Z such that every homeomorphism of Zω acts like a permutation of the coordinates almost everywhere. Furthermore, this permutation varies continuously. This shows that a result of Dow and Pearl is sharp, and gives some insight into an open problem of Terada. Our example Z is simply the set of ω1 Cohen reals, viewed as ...
