a finite group g is said to be a pos-group if for each x in g the cardinality of the set {y in g | o(y) = o(x)} is a divisor of the order of g. in this paper we study the structure of pos-groups with some cyclic sylow subgroups.

AbstractLet W be a non-empty subset of a free group. The automorphism of a group G is said to be a marginal automorphism, if for all x in G,x^−1alpha(x) in W^*(G), where W^*(G) is the marginal subgroup of G.In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient condition for a purelynon-abelian p-group G, such that the set of all marginal automorphismsof G forms an elementary abelian p-group.

Differences in activity between infective juveniles (IJ) of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae that emerged directly from cadavers onto either a sand or agar substrate compared with those emerging from a cadaver into water and then being placed on the same substrate are known to occur. Differences between S. carpocapsae IJ that emerged directly from a cadaver vs. those that e...

efforts to increase the mass transfer coefficient, enhance the contact area, and decrease the power input of contractors have given risen to the development of the pre-dispersed solvent extraction (pdse) contactor and the devise of the new dissolved nitrogen pdse (dnpdse) contactors. the studies conducted after the design of the new contactor to determine the working conditions for its suitable...

We propose a non-interactive product argument, that is more efficient than the one by Groth and Lipmaa, and a novel shift argument. We then use them to design several novel non-interactive zero-knowledge (NIZK) arguments. We obtain the first range proof with constant communication and subquadratic prover’s computation. We construct NIZK arguments for NPcomplete languages, Set-Partition, Subset-...
