Comments on relaxed $(gamma, r)$-cocoercive mappings

We show that the variational inequality $VI(C,A)$ has aunique solution for a relaxed $(gamma , r)$-cocoercive,$mu$-Lipschitzian mapping $A: Cto H$ with $r>gamma mu^2$, where$C$ is a nonempty closed convex subset of a Hilbert space $H$. Fromthis result, it can be derived that, for example, the recentalgorithms given in the references of this paper, despite theirbecoming more complicated, are not...

Self-recognition and self-tolerance are two characteristics of the receptor repertoire expressed by functionally reactive T cells. Both of these facets of the T cell receptor repertoire are importantly influenced by the environment in which immature T cell precursors differentiate. For example, T cells specifically recognize as self the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)l-encoded determinan...

The maturation of a pre-B cell to an immunoglobulin (Ig)-bearing B cell requires an effective recombination of a light chain variable (VL) 1 and joining (JL) gene segment (1-11). Man uses both light chain gene classes appreciably, expressing K light chain in -60% and ~ light chain in 40% of mature B cells. Despite their nearly equal usage, however, the rearrangement of human Ig light chain gene...

Relation between swelling and erodibility of cohesive soils

Philip J. Fay (1953-2014).

Philip J. Fay, Ph.D., Professor of Biochemistry and Biophysics at the University of Rochester, passed away on June 25, 2014 at the age of 61. He succumbed to the multiple myeloma that he had battled valiantly for 6 years. Phil is survived by his wife of 38 years, Andrea, daughters Amber and Emily, and five grandchildren. On July 8th the flags at the University of Rochester were lowered in his h...
