We investigated the control of spinal interneurons by corticospinal and medial brain stem descending tracts in two macaque monkeys. Stimulating electrodes were implanted in the left pyramidal tract (PT), and the right medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF), which contains reticulospinal, vestibulospinal, and some tectospinal fibers. Single unit discharge was recorded from 163 interneurons in the ...

We present solutions to isomorphism problems for various generalized Weyl algebras, including deformations of type-A Kleinian singularities 14] and the algebras similar to U(sl 2) introduced in 31]. For the former, we generalize results of Dixmier 11, 12] on the rst Weyl algebra and the minimal primitive factors of U(sl 2) by nding sets of generators for the group of automorph-isms.
