Besides their large-scale organization in isochores, mammalian genomes display megabase-sized regions, spanning both genes and intergenes, where the strand nucleotide composition asymmetry decreases linearly, possibly due to replication activity. These so-called skew-N domains cover about a third of the human genome and are bordered by two skew upward jumps that were hypothesized to compose a s...

In this paper, we consider the Robinson-Schensted correspondence for oscillating tab-leaux and skew oscillating tableaux deened in 15] and 3]. First we give an analogue, for the oscillating tableaux, of the classical geometric construction of Viennot for standard tableaux ((16]). Then, we extend a construction of Sagan and Stanley ((10]), dealing with standard tableaux and skew tableaux, to ded...

The present investigation deals with the propagation of waves in a micropolar transversely isotropic layer. Secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetric modes of wave propagation in completely separate terms are derived. The amplitudes of displacements and microrotation were also obtained. Finally, the numerical solution was carried out for aluminium epoxy material and the dispersion curv...

In this paper, we classify the skew cyclic codes over Fp + vF_p + v^2F_p, where p is a prime number and v^3 = v. Each skew cyclic code is a F_p+vF_p+v^2F_p-submodule of the (F_p+vF_p+v^2F_p)[x;alpha], where v^3 = v and alpha(v) = -v. Also, we give an explicit forms for the generator of these codes. Moreover, an algorithm of encoding and decoding for these codes is presented.

The partitioning of reproduction among individuals in communally breeding animals varies greatly among species, from the monopolization of reproduction (high reproductive skew) to similar contribution to the offspring in others (low skew). Reproductive skew models explain how relatedness or ecological constraints affect the magnitude of reproductive skew. They typically assume that individuals ...

In this article, we study statistical attractors of skew products which have an m-dimensional compact manifold M as a fiber and their ε-invisible subsets. For any n ≥ 100m, m = dim(M), we construct a set Rn in the space of skew products over the horseshoe with the fiber M having the following properties. Each C-skew product from Rn possesses a statistical attractor with an ε-invisible part, for...

GC skew is a measure of the strand asymmetry in the distribution of guanines and cytosines. GC skew favors R-loops, a type of three stranded nucleic acid structures that form upon annealing of an RNA strand to one strand of DNA, creating a persistent RNA:DNA hybrid. Previous studies show that GC skew is prevalent at thousands of human CpG island (CGI) promoters and transcription termination reg...

This paper proposes a new part-based approach for skew estimation of document images. The proposed method first estimates skew angles on rather small areas, which are the local parts of characters, and subsequently determines the global skew angle by aggregating those local estimations. A local skew estimation on a part of a skewed character is performed by finding an identical part from prepar...

In recent years, the skew-normal models introduced by Azzalini (1985)—and their multivariate generalizations from Azzalini and Dalla Valle (1996)—have enjoyed an amazing success, although an important literature has reported that they exhibit, in the vicinity of symmetry, singular Fisher information matrices and stationary points in the profile log-likelihood function for skewness, with the usu...

let $rin textbf{c}^{mtimes m}$ and $sin textbf{c}^{ntimes n}$ be nontrivial involution matrices; i.e., $r=r^{-1}neq pm~i$ and $s=s^{-1}neq pm~i$. an $mtimes n$ complex matrix $a$ is said to be an $(r, s)$-symmetric ($(r, s)$-skew symmetric) matrix if $ras =a$ ($ ras =-a$). the $(r, s)$-symmetric and $(r, s)$-skew symmetric matrices have a number of special properties and widely used in engi...
