long-term ingestion of large amounts of fluoride can lead to potentially severe skeletal problems and neurological consequences. the study was conducted to assess and compare intelligence quotient of children living in high and low fluoride areas in kutch, gujarat, india.a cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted among 100 school children aged 8 to 10 years, living in kutch district, gu...

We consider geometrical problems on Gorenstein hypersurface orbifolds of dimension n ≥ 4 through the theory of Hilbert scheme of group orbits.

We study four-dimensional and five-dimensional exceptional quotient singularities.

We define a generic multiplication in quantised Schur algebras and thus obtain a new algebra structure in the Schur algebras. We prove that via a modified version of the map from quantum groups to quantised Schur algebras, defined in [1], a subalgebra of this new algebra is a quotient of the monoid algebra in Hall algebras studied in [10]. We also prove that the subalgebra of the new algebra gi...

Let R be an associative ring in which an identity element is not assumed. A right quotient ring of P is an overring 5 such that for each aQS there corresponds rQR such that arQR and ar 9*0. A theorem of R. E. Johnson [l ] states that R possesses a right quotient ring S which is a (von Neumann) regular ring if and only if P has vanishing right singular ideal. In this case P possesses a unique (u...

We describe an algorithm which takes as input a finitely presented group F, a finite confluent rewriting system for a quotient G and a prime p, and returns as output a finite confluent rewriting system for the largest extension of an elementary abelian group in characteristic p by G which is still an epimorphic image of F.

Notes: 1) The modular diagonal quotient surfaces as defined above may be viewed as a special case of the general diagonal quotient surfaces studied in Kani/Schanz[7]. 2) The inclusions of subsgroups {1} ≤ ∆αε ≤ G × G induce finite morphisms (both of degree m = |G|) YN Φ → ZN,ε Ψ → Y1 ' P × P. Moreover, by using Shimura’s canonical model X(N)/Q, it can be shown that all these varieties have cano...
