Closing Volume 52 and Reflections on 2020

Closing volume during normal pregnancy.

Serial lung function studies were performed in ten healthy, primiparous women aged 21--28. Measurements were made at two-monthly intervals during pregnancy and included functional residual capacity (FRC), total lung capacity (TLC), vital capacity (VC), specific conductance (SGaw) and closing volume (CV) on each occasion. Closing volume expressed as formular: (see text), showed a progressive ris...

Topological Fluid Dynamics, Volume 52, Number 1

T opological fluid dynamics is a young mathematical discipline that studies topological features of flows with complicated trajectories and their applications to fluid motions, and develops group-theoretic and geometric points of view on various problems of hydrodynamical origin. It is situated at a crossroads of several disciplines, including Lie groups, knot theory, partial differential equat...

Quiver Representations, Volume 52, Number 2

200 NOTICES OF THE AMS VOLUME 52, NUMBER 2 Introduction A quiver is just a directed graph.1 Formally, a quiver is a pair Q = (Q0,Q1) where Q0 is a finite set of vertices and Q1 is a finite set of arrows between them. If a ∈ Q1 is an arrow, then ta and ha denote its tail and its head, respectively. Let us fix a quiver Q and a base field K. Attach a finite dimensional vector space to each vertex ...

Manifolds with Density, Volume 52, Number 8

Introduction We consider a Riemannian manifold M n with a positive density function Ψ (x) used to weight volume and hypersurface area. In terms of the underlying Riemannian volume dV 0 and area dA 0 , the new, weighted volume and area are given by
