Let S be a ruled surface inside a smooth threefold W and let E be a vector bundle on a formal neighborhood of S. We find minimal conditions under which the local moduli space of E is finite dimensional and smooth. Moreover, we show that E is a flat limit of a flat family of vector bundles whose general element we describe explicitly.

Let f be a continuous map of an interval into itself having periodic points of period 2n for all n ≥ 0 and no other periods. It is shown that every neighborhood of f contains a map g such that the set of periods of the periodic points of g is finite. This answers a question posed by L. S. Block and W. A.

In some spatial applications the objects of interest are fields, caused by spatially distributed sources, and one of the central questions is to find neighborhood relations between these fields. The motivating example for this paper is a cellular network: base transceiver stations transmit signals with continuous distribution, the signal strength, in an urban environment. In order to avoid inte...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) typically exploit a single base station for collecting data and coordinating activities. However, decentralized architectures are rapidly emerging, as witnessed by wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs), and in general by solutions involving multiple data sinks, heterogeneous nodes, and in-network coordination. These settings demand new programming abstrac...

This article provides a comprehensive review of research on the effects of neighborhood residence on child and adolescent well-being. The first section reviews key methodological issues. The following section considers links between neighborhood characteristics and child outcomes and suggests the importance of high socioeconomic status (SES) for achievement and low SES and residential instabili...

It is shown that the hyperspace of non-empty finite subsets of a space X is an ANR (an AR) for stratifiable spaces if and only if X is a 2-hyper-locally-connected (and connected) stratifiable space. 0. Introduction. For a space X, let F(X) denote the hyperspace of non-empty finite subsets of X with the Vietoris topology, i.e., the topology generated by the sets 〈U1, . . . , Un〉 = {A ∈ F(X) | A ...

in this paper, new definitions of $l$-fuzzy closure operator, $l$-fuzzy interior operator, $l$-fuzzy remote neighborhood system, $l$-fuzzy neighborhood system and $l$-fuzzy quasi-coincident neighborhood system are proposed. it is proved that the category of $l$-fuzzy closure spaces, the category of $l$-fuzzy interior spaces, the category of $l$-fuzzy remote neighborhood spaces, the category of ...
