in this paper, we give a characterization of strongly jordan zero-product preserving maps on normed algebras as a generalization of  jordan zero-product preserving maps. in this direction, we give some illustrative examples to show that the notions of strongly zero-product preserving maps and strongly jordan zero-product preserving maps are completely different. also, we prove that the direct p...

This study aims to evaluate the impact of pavement physical characteristics on the frequency of single-vehicle run-off-road (ROR) crashes in two-lane separated rural highways. In order to achieve this goal and to introduce the most accurate crash prediction model (CPM), authors have tried to develop generalized linear models, including the Poisson regression (PR), negative binomial regression (...

Ward and colleagues report the first transgenic light chain amyloidosis mouse model in this issue of Blood and demonstrate that it can be used to test pharmaceutical candidates.

Because race and neighborhood characteristics are strongly correlated, studies of racial housing price differentials have yielded results that vary widely depending on the types of neighborhood controls used. This paper shows that even with relatively thorough neighborhood controls, there is still evidence that correlation between the error term and regressors is a source of bias. While recent ...

We consider the stability of warping modes in Keplerian discs. We find them to be parametrically unstable using two lines of attack, one based on three-mode couplings and the other on Floquet theory. We confirm the existence of the instability, and investigate its nonlinear development in three dimensions, via numerical experiment. The most rapidly growing non-axisymmetric disturbances are the ...

many of the meteorological variables such as precipitation, strongly depend on the large scale atmospheric and ocean surface circulations.in the current study, the effect of climatic signals on the average monthly rainfall of the adjacent stations of sheshdeh and gharebolagh area was investigated during the statistical period twenty five years from 1985 to 2009. the regression and neural networ...

Focus particles interact with the focused constituent in a sentence. The particle only presents a challenge to formalizing this relationship as while it commonly precedes the focused constituent, only can also follow it. A syntactic account of these constructions is presented that captures the unique properties of only’s distribution within the framework presented in Kayne (1998) and offers sup...
