Abstract: Let be a commutative ring and be a unitary module. We define a semiprime submodule of a module and consider various properties of it. Also we define semi-radical of a submodule of a module and give a number of its properties. We define modules which satisfy the semi-radical formula and present the existence of such a module.  

When using visual video features in an interactive video index environment, it is necessary to visualize the meaning and impact of features to people that are not image processing experts, such as video librarians. Projection of feature values on the original video data is an important method to visualize the relation between the feature and the video. We describe the characteristics of feature...

Oceanic microseisms are generated by the interaction of opposing ocean waves and subsequent coupling with the seabed, so microseisms should contain information on the ocean conditions that generated them. This leads to the possibility of using seismic records as a proxy for the ocean gravity wavefield. Here we investigate the P-wave component of microseisms, which has previously been linked to ...

The 2011 Tohoku megathrust earthquake had an unexpected size for the region. To image the earthquake rupture in detail, we applied a novel backprojection technique to waveforms from local accelerometer networks. The earthquake began as a small-size twin rupture, slowly propagating mainly updip and triggering the break of a larger-size asperity at shallower depths, resulting in up to 50 m slip a...

Let f : A → B be a covering map. We say A has e filtered ends with respect to f (or B) if for some filtration {Kn} of B by compact subsets, A − f(Kn) “eventually” has e components. The main theorem states that if Y is a (suitable) free H-space, if K < H has infinite index, and if Y has a positive finite number of filtered ends with respect to H\Y , then Y has one filtered end with respect to K\...
