We refine a recent result of Parsell [20] on the values of the form λ 1 p 1 + λ 2 p 2 + µ 1 2 m 1 + · · · + µ s 2 m s , where p 1 , p 2 are prime numbers, m 1 ,. .. , m s are positive integers, λ 1 /λ 2 is negative and irrational and λ 1 /µ 1 , λ 2 /µ 2 ∈ Q.

Generalizing results on spin character degrees, we determine for a given conjugacy class of odd type in the double cover of S n spin characters of S n which have the minimal 2-power on this class in their character value. Surprisingly, the Glaisher map plays an important r^ ole here.

Coloniality represents the contemporary patterns of power and domination that emerged in late 15th century during so-called classic era colonialism. Although much psychology psychological thought has adhered to logic coloniality, there is also a considerable body work sought decolonize psychology. It within this latter tradition decolonizing psychology—which seems have gained increasing attenti...

A generalization of the Schwarz-Christoffel mapping to multiply connected polygonal domains is obtained by making a combined use of two preimage domains, namely, a rectilinear slit domain and a bounded circular domain. The conformal mapping from the circular domain to the polygonal region is written as an indefinite integral whose integrand consists of a product of powers of the Schottky-Klein ...

We show that the current accelerated expansion of the Universe can be explained without resorting to dark energy. Models of generalized modified gravity, with inverse powers of the curvature can have late time accelerating attractors without conflicting with solar system experiments. We have solved the Friedman equations for the full dynamical range of the evolution of the Universe. This allows...

Among the effects of sexual integration of the workplace has been an increase in the opportunities for, and incidence of, sexual harassment. Sexual harassment, and women’s responses to it, can be understood as reflections of the different evolved sexual psychologies of the sexes. Among the issues discussed are whether the abusiveness of work environments should be viewed from the perspective of...

The focus of this paper is to analyze whether the unreliability of results related to certain controversial psychological phenomena may be a consequence of their low statistical power. Applying the Null Hypothesis Statistical Testing (NHST), still the widest used statistical approach, unreliability derives from the failure to refute the null hypothesis, in particular when exact or quasi-exact r...

This article outlines the description, from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Vedic Psychology, of experience of the Ved — the perception, within the simplest form of human awareness, of the self-interacting dynamics of the unified field, the field of pure consciousness or cosmic psyche. This realization is described by Maharishi as developing through increasingly refined experience of the field of pure ...

In Part I, the author explains that it is the adjudication between the conflicting claims of individual liberty, personal autonomy and self-determination versus the preservation of life as a societal value that is at the core of the issue posed by physician-assisted suicide. In Part II, author makes the case against suicide, noting that liberty is not absolute and the state retains powers of so...
