This paper explores the numerical performances of algorithms enriched by an augmented interface problem in a domain decomposition method dedicated to nonsmooth dynamic systems. Starting from simulations on a single time step, different algorithms are tested on moderate size samples. The analysis of the results leads to an incomplete resolution strategy for solving a time-evolution problem. This...

DOI 10.1515/taa-2015-0005 Received August 20, 2014; accepted August 16, 2015 Abstract: The intrinsic algebraic entropy ̃︂ ent(φ) of an endomorphism φ of an Abelian group G can be computed using fully inert subgroups of φ-invariant sections of G, instead of the whole family of φ-inert subgroups. For a class of groups containing thegroupsof finite rank, aswell as those groupswhichare trajectories ...

Meta-analyses were performed on 12 studies of treatment with sexual offenders (N = 1,313). A small, but robust, overall effect size was found for treatment versus comparison conditions (r = .12). The overall recidivism rate for treated sexual offenders was .19 versus .27 for untreated sexual offenders. Treatment effect sizes across studies, however, were heterogeneous. Effect sizes were larger ...
