We investigate generalized phase transitions of type localization delocalization from one to several Sinai-Bowen-Ruelle invariant measures in finite networks of chaotic elements (coupled map lattices) with general graphs of connections in the limit of weak coupling.

We establish a Bowen type rigidity theorem for geometrically finite actions of the fundamental group of finite volume noncompact hyperbolic manifolds (with dimension at least 3). Mathematics Subject Classification (2000). 53C24, 30F40, 37F30.

A study was carried out in central Italy into the evapotranspiration from linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.). In particular, the objectives were to (a) evaluate the accuracy of daily evapotranspiration estimates from partially incomplete Bowen ratio data; (b) measure seasonal evapotranspiration from linseed; (c) test the FAO 56 method for estimating crop coefficients for linseed and (d) calculate...

A 60-year-old male patient presented with complaints of persistent red to a brown-colored plaque on his scrotum, with duration of approximately three years. The patient had been treated with oral and topical antifungals for inguinal tinea for several months and after that with topical corticosteroids for eczema for several more months. None of the regimens achieved any therapeutic effect. The h...

The Bowen Basin contains the largest coal reserves in Australia. Prolonged heavy rainfall during the 2010-2011 wet-season severely affected industry operations with an estimated economic loss of A$5.7 billion (£3.8 billion). There was no explicit warning of the exceptionally wet conditions in the seasonal forecast from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, which simply suggested a 50-55% probab...

The literature contains several extensions of the standard definitions of topological entropy for a continuous self-map f : X→X from the case when X is a compact metric space to the case when X is allowed to be noncompact. These extensions all require the space X to be totally bounded, or equivalently to have a compact completion, and are invariants of uniform conjugacy. When themap f is unifor...

INTRODUCTION Although few cases of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with clear cells have been published, we believe that these cells are often present in SCC. MATERIAL AND METHODS We studied 249 SCCs, analyzing a number of clinical and histological variables. Various immunohistochemical techniques (immunoperoxidase method) were used to determine whether adnexal differentiation was present. RE...
