W. L. Bynum introduced the weakly convergent sequence coefficient WCS(A') of the Banach space X as WCS(Jf) = sup{M: for each weakly convergent sequence {xn} in X , there is some y e co({x«}) such that M • lim sup ||x,, y\\ < A({x„})} . We consider the weakly convergent sequence coefficient of the /^-product space Z = (fTjLi Xi)t of tne finite non-Schur space Xx, ... , X„ and show that WCS(Z) = ...

the activation of carbon monoxide by oxygen on mg(100) surface has been investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (xps). carbon monoxide is only weakly adsorbed (dispersion-type forces) on a magnesium surface. the xps result has shown that the dissociation of carbon monoxide leading to the formation of a metastable surface carbonate species occurs through the participation of an oxygen s...

This paper considers the question of relative hyperbolicity of an Artin group with regard to the geometry of its associated Deligne complex. We prove that an Artin group is weakly hyperbolic relative to its finite (or spherical) type parabolic subgroups if and only if its Deligne complex is a Gromov hyperbolic space. For a 2-dimensional Artin group the Deligne complex is Gromov hyperbolic preci...

Using periodic slab density functional theory, we investigate CO adsorption, diffusion, and dissociation energetics on a monolayer of Al covering Fe(100) [Al/Fe(100)]. We predict a weakly chemisorbed state of CO to exist on Al/Fe(100), with CO adsorbing on the 4-fold hollow site in a very tilted fashion. This state is predicted to have an extremely low CO stretching frequency of only 883 cm(-1)...

INTRODUCTION Chemokines and chemokine receptors have a pivotal role in immunity and inflammation. We aimed to evaluate their role in kidney transplant rejection. MATERIALS AND METHODS The association of chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2)-V64I and CCR5-Delta32 gene polymorphisms with acute rejection (AR) and delayed graft function (DGF) were examined in 100 donor-recipient pairs. The CCR2...

We investigate the role weakly damped modes play in the selection of Faraday wave patterns forced with rationally-related frequency components mω and nω. We use symmetry considerations to argue for the special importance of the weakly damped modes oscillating with twice the frequency of the critical mode, and those oscillating primarily with the “difference frequency” |n − m|ω and the “sum freq...
