introduction: this in vitro study aims to evaluate the coronal and apical sealing ability of gutta-percha (gp) root filling used with either mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), new endodontic cement (nec) or ah26 as filler/sealers. materials and methods: forty eight single-rooted extracted teeth were selected, decoronated and then instrumented. samples were randomly divided into three experimenta...

ackground and aim: it is important to evaluate the effect of the type of filling material on deformation and strength of tooth after filling and also the effect of filling depth on quality of restoration of a decayed tooth. material and methods: the orthopantomogram (opg) of the first and second molars of a 28-year-old man was made and the teeth were 3d modeled. the stress-deformation analysis ...

Despite the urgent need to develop professional ethics regarding information behaviour, several obstacles exist in Japan. The greatest is the lack of individuals’ ethics of responsibility. To overcome this difficulty, we must examine and reflect on the historical circumstances that led to the formation of Japanese core ethics and on the sociocultural context that compensates for the lack of ind...

We derive some of the basic properties of weighted variable exponent Lebesgue spaces L p(.) w (R) and investigate embeddings of these spaces under some conditions. Also a new family of Wiener amalgam spaces W (L p(.) w , L q υ) is defined, where the local component is a weighted variable exponent Lebesgue space L p(.) w (R) and the global component is a weighted Lebesgue space Lυ (R) . We inves...

For any amalgam (S, T; U) of inverse semigroups, it is shown that the natural partial order on S *u T, the (inverse semigroup) free product of S and T amalgamating U, has a simple form onSUT. In particular, it follows that the semilattice of 5 *u T is a bundled semilattice of the corresponding semilattice amalgam (E(S), E(T); E(U)); taken jointly with a result of Teruo Imaoka, this gives that t...

In this paper, we obtain a refinement of the Young theorem. The Young theorem tells us that the Fourier transform F sends the L functions to the Lp functions, if 1 ≤ p ≤ 2. This theorem has a refinement. For example, F : L → B ∞1, where B pq is the Besov space. In this present paper we shall consider the more refined version of this theorem by using the amalgams and the Besov spaces.

We consider sequences of discrete subgroups Γi = ρi(Γ) of a rank 1 Lie group G, with Γ finitely generated. We show that, for algebraically convergent sequences (Γi), unless Γi’s are (eventually) elementary or contain normal finite subgroups of arbitrarily high order, their algebraic limit is a discrete nonelementary subgroup of G. In the case of divergent sequences (Γi) we show that the resulti...
