Let E be an elliptic curve over Q with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic eld. Let be the Hecke character associated to E by the theory of complex multiplication. Let be the complex conjugate character of. For a pair of integers k and j, deene the Hecke character ' = '(k; j) = k j. Let p be a prime where E has good, ordinary reduction. Let p be a xed prime ...

This study was carried out in a clonal seed orchard of scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), to determine the difference and interaction for reproductive and growth characters among clones and its impact on fertility variation and gene diversity Numbers of female and male strobili, and height and diameter at breast height were studied on six grafts chosen randomly in each of the 27 clones for the p...

The touching character segmentation problem becomes complex when touching strings are multioriented. Moreover in graphical documents sometimes characters in a single-touching string have different orientations. Segmentation of such complex touching is more challenging. In this paper, we present a scheme towards the segmentation of English multi-oriented touching strings into individual characte...

The growth and development of plants is determined by both genetic and environmental factors. In this study, path analysis was employed to investigate the magnitude of developmental variation among six quantitative characters associated with growth in 29 pitch pine (Pinus rigida Mill.) families at Walden Woods, Lincoln, Mass. Seedlings were grown for six months in two environments: sand (poor) ...

This study used a computer-based teaching system to investigate the effectiveness of stroke-order learning and writing exercises in promoting the ability of Chinese-as-a-foreign-language (CFL) learners to recognize and write Chinese characters. This study included a 2 (stroke-order and non-strokeorder) 2 (writing exercise and non-writing exercise) 2 (test point) mixed factorial design involving...

Evaluation of eggplant (Solanum melongena) genotypes, including one control check and nine mutants for ten agronomical characters to assess the magnitude of variability and to pick up the heritable component of variation present in the agronomic traits, revealed significant differences among the genotypes for all the studied characters indicating the presence of substantial genetic variability....

we say that a finite group $g$ is conjugacy expansive if for anynormal subset $s$ and any conjugacy class $c$ of $g$ the normalset $sc$ consists of at least as many conjugacy classes of $g$ as$s$ does. halasi, mar'oti, sidki, bezerra have shown that a groupis conjugacy expansive if and only if it is a direct product ofconjugacy expansive simple or abelian groups.by considering a character analo...
