be morphisms of monoids, considered as functors. Let the functor f is left adjoint to the functor g. Is it true then that f (or, what is the same, g) is always an isomorphism? In [1], p.136, this question was posed as an open question. Here I answer this question and the answer is no. To prove this, I will construct a Birkhoff variety of algebras, which is naturally equivalent to the category o...

The 1958 symposium of the Biochemical Society consists of seven papers given by British biochemists on areas of glutathione (GSH) chemistry and biochemistry. The topics presented may be listed briefly: chemistry of GSH, techniques for determining GSH, oxidation-reduction systems associated with GSH in plant tissues, GSH in animal tissues, and neural tissues, and in lens, and finally the effect ...

A notation for probabilities is proposed that differs from the traditional, conventional notation by making explicit the domains and bound variables involved. The notation borrows from the Z notation, and lends itself well to calculational manipulations, with a smooth transition back and forth to set and predicate notation.

Away is found to add axioms to sequent calculi that maintains the eliminability of cut, through the representation of axioms as rules of inference of a suitable form. By this method, the structural analysis of proofs is extended from pure logic to free-variable theories, covering all classical theories, and a wide class of constructive theories. All results are proved for systems in which also ...

In this paper we propose higher-order rewrite systems without bound variables. In order to prove their connuence under the assumption of orthogonality, we study a simple proof method which employs a characterization of the diamond property of a parallel reduction. By an application of the proof method, we obtain a new connuence result for orthogonal higher-order conditional rewrite systems.

Every theory we will consider will be in a language that has a name ṅ for each n ∈ ω. For example, the name for 2 ∈ ω in the language LΩ of arithmetic is the term “1 + 1”. The results stated will only apply to countable languages. This requirement is implicit in the hypothesis of the existence of an enumeration of all formulas with one free variable, for example. We also assume that formulas an...

In this paper, we introduce a new fragment of the rst-order temporal language, called the monodic fragment, in which all formulas beginning with a temporal operator (Since or Until) have at most one free variable. We show that the satissability problem for monodic formulas in various linear time structures can be reduced to the satissability problem for a certain fragment of classical rst-order...

Decision support systems (DSS) are needed to carry out precision irrigation. Key issues in this regard include how deal with spatial variability and the adoption of deficit irrigation strategies at field scale. A software application originally designed for water balance-based automated scheduling locally fine-tuned through use sensors has been further developed emerging paradigm both digital t...
