‎Let $tau$ be a subgroup functor and $H$ a $p$-subgroup of a finite group $G$‎. ‎Let $bar{G}=G/H_{G}$ and $bar{H}=H/H_{G}$‎. ‎We say that $H$ is $Phi$-$tau$-quasinormal in $G$ if for some $S$-quasinormal subgroup $bar{T}$ of $bar{G}$ and some $tau$-subgroup $bar{S}$ of $bar{G}$ contained in $bar{H}$‎, ‎$bar{H}bar{T}$ is $S$-quasinormal in $bar{G}$ and $bar{H}capbar{T}leq bar{S}Phi(bar{H})$‎. ‎I...

Eukaryotic cell membrane dynamics change in curvature during physiological and pathological processes. In the past ten years, a novel protein family, Fes/CIP4 homology-Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (F-BAR) domain proteins, has been identified to be the most important coordinators in membrane curvature regulation. The F-BAR domain family is a member of the Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain superfamily that...

We have observed 60 edge-on galaxies in the NIR in order to study the stellar distribution in galaxies with box/peanut-shaped bulges. The much smaller amount of dust extinction at these wavelengths allows us to identify in almost all target galaxies with box/peanut-shaped bulges an additional thin, central component in cuts parallel to the major axis. This structure can be identified with a bar...

We present a deep near-infrared wide-angle photometric analysis of the structure of the inner Galactic bar and central disk. The presence of a triaxial structure at the centre of the Galaxy is confirmed, consistent with a bar inclined at 22±5.5 • from the Sun-Galactic centre line, extending to about 2.5 kpc from the Galactic centre and with a rather small axis ratio. A feature at ℓ=−9.8 • not a...

Membrane-sculpting BAR (Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs) domains form a crescent-shaped homodimer that can sense and induce membrane curvature through its positively charged concave face. We have recently shown that Arfaptin-2, which was originally identified as a binding partner for the Arf and Rac1 GTPases, binds to Arl1 through its BAR domain and is recruited onto Golgi membranes. There, Arfaptin-2 indu...

The geometry of the LMC bar is studied using the de-reddened mean magnitudes of the red clump stars (I0 ) from the OGLE II catalogue. The value of I0 is found to vary in the east-west direction such that both the east and the west ends of the bar are closer to us with respect to the center of the bar. The maximum observed variation has a statistical significance of more than 7.6 σ with respect ...

planar d-bar integral equation is one of the inverse scattering solution methods for complex problems including inverse conductivity considered in applications such as electrical impedance tomography (eit). recently two different methodologies are considered for the numerical solution of d-bar integrals equation, namely product integrals and multigrid. the first one involves high computational ...
