Put in this way, the question of the theater ought to arouse general attention, the implication being that theater, through its physical aspect, since it requires expression in space (the only real expression, in fact), allows the magical means of art and speech to be exercised organically and altogether, like renewed exorcisms. The upshot of all this is that theater will not be given its speci...

Let H 0(X) (H(X)) denote the set of all (nonempty) closed subsets of X endowed with the Vietoris topology. A basic problem concerning H(X) is to characterize those X for which H(X) is countably compact. We conjecture that u-compactness of X for some u ∈ ω∗ (or equivalently: all powers of X are countably compact) may be such a characterization. We give some results that point into this direction...

In view of this new result it seems to be appropriate to update the theoretical numbers present in the literature, see e.g. [3]. Phenomenological aspects of the width difference will not be discussed in this letter, we refer the interested reader to e.g. [4]. The calculation of ∆ΓBs is performed in the framework of the heavy quark expansion (HQE)[5], which offers the possibility to expand decay...

We give three descriptions of the factors of a Sturmian word that are standard words. We also show that all Sturmian words are so-called everywhere abelian krepetitive for all integers k ≥ 1, that is, all sufficiently long factors have an abelian kth power as a prefix. More precisely, given a Sturmian word t and an integer k, there exist two integers `1 and `2 such that each position in t has a...

This paper describes the design and operation of the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme and then proceeds with an analysis of current policy deliberations which identifies an extension of the market as predominant trend. The paper demonstrates that the conditions which historically sustained the scheme are now present to a lesser extent. The Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme has functioned as a univer...

Replacing symmetric powers by divided powers and working over Witt vectors instead of ground fields, I generalize Kawamata’s T -lifting theorem to characteristic p > 0. Combined with the work of Deligne–Illusie on degeneration of the Hodge–de Rham spectral sequences, this gives unobstructedness for certain Calabi–Yau varieties with free crystalline cohomology modules.

We prove a Glivenko-Cantelli type strong law of large numbers for the pair correlation of independent random variables. Except for a few powers of logarithms the results obtained are sharp. Similar estimates hold for the pair correlation of lacunary sequences {nkω} mod 1.

The high-powered target development efforts at ORNL for the Spallation Neutron Source and the muon collider/neutrino factory are discussed. Emphasis is given to the technology issues that present the greatest scientific challenges.

Proof. It is well-known that the kernels of the powers of φ stabilize (see for example [3]), that is, there exists k > 0 such that ker(φ) = ker(φ) for all n ≥ k. (This easily follows from the stabilization of ranks of the free groups φ(F ) and from Hopficity of finitely generated free groups.) Put N = ker(φ). Then φ factors through to an injective endomorphism φ : F/N → F/N . The group F/N is i...
