In this paper we construct quantum analogs of strata of coadjoint orbits and describe their representations. This kind objects play an important role in describing quantum groups as repeated extensions of quantum strata.

Investigators often meta-analyze multiple genome-wide association studies (GWASs) to increase the power to detect associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with a trait. Meta-analysis is also performed within a single cohort that is stratified by, e.g., sex or ancestry group. Having correlated individuals among the strata may complicate meta-analyses, limit power, and inflate Type ...

OBJECTIVE To estimate the vaccination coverage in children born in the city of Salvador, analyzing these coverages by socioeconomic conditions. METHOD A household survey on vaccination coverage was conducted with children born in 2005, in Salvador, Bahia, northeastern Brazil, who were aged between 18 to 36 months at the time of this study. Cluster sampling was performed in multiple stages. Ce...

The coal permeability is an important parameter in mine methane control and coal bed methane (CBM) exploitation, which determines the practicability of methane extraction. Permeability prediction in deep coal seam plays a significant role in evaluating the practicability of CBM exploitation. The coal permeability depends on the coal fractures controlled by strata stress, gas pressure, and strat...

We describe an entanglement witness for N -qubit mixed states based on the properties of N -point correlation functions. As the degree of violation increases beyond different threshold values, or strata, this witness can guarantee that no more than M qubits are separable from the rest of the state for any M 6 N , or that there is some genuine M-party or greater multipartite entanglement present...

1. Let Zk~ be the manifold of all nondegenerate complex k × n-matrices, k < n , let Gkn be the Grassmannian of k-dimensional subspaces in C~', and let ~r: Zkn -~ Gk, be the na tura l projection (7~(z) for z E Zk~ is the k-dimensional subspace of C ~ generated by the rows of z). For a matr ix z E Zkn denote by px(z) = pil...ik(z) the minor of z composed by the columns with indices from the set I...

This paper deals with a question of Fontaine and Rapoport which was posed in [FR]. There they asked for the determination of the index set of the Harder-Narasimhan vectors of the filtered isocrystals with fixed Newtonand Hodge vector. The aim of this paper is to give an answer to their question.

Mammalian sex chromosomes arose from a pair of homologous autosomes that differentiated into the X and Y chromosomes following a series of recombination suppression events between the X and Y. The stepwise recombination suppressions from the distal long arm to the distal short arm of the chromosomes are reflected as regions with distinct X-Y divergence, referred to as evolutionary strata on the...

Taking Ping Dingshan Coal Mine Group 12 as an example, this paper explains the system layout, key equipment and backfilling technology in detail. It probes into the characteristic of rock strata movement behavior and surface deformation above the gob area through in-site measurement method. The results show that as the overburden strata are effectively supported by the backfill body in mined ou...

The Cappell-Shaneson decomposition theorem for self-dual sheaves asserts that on a space with only even-codimensional strata any selfdual sheaf is cobordant to an orthogonal sum of twisted intersection chain sheaves associated to the various strata. In sharp contrast to this result, we prove that on a space with only odd-codimensional strata (not necessarily Witt), any self-dual sheaf is cobord...
