We present an approach to the investigation of the statistical properties of weakly coupled map lattices that avoids completely cluster expansion techniques. Although here it is implemented on a simple case we expect similar strategies to be applicable in a much larger class of situations.

New fixed point results are presented for weakly inward Kakutani condensing maps defined on a Fréchet space E. The proofs rely on the notion of an essential map and viewing E as the projective limit of a sequence of Banach spaces.

We show that if two 3-manifolds with toroidal boundary are glued via a “sufficiently complicated” map then every Heegaard splitting of the resulting 3-manifold is weakly reducible. Additionally, suppose X∪F Y is a manifold obtained by gluing X and Y , two connected small manifolds with incompressible boundary, along a closed surface F . Then the following inequality on genera is obtained:

The first renormalization group map arising from the momentum space decomposition of a weakly coupled system of fermions at temperature zero differs from all subsequent maps. Namely, the component of momentum dual to temperature may be arbitrarily large — there is no ultraviolet cutoff. The methods of Part 1 are supplemented to control this special case.

We report the results of some experiments which demonstrate that eigenvoice MAP and eigenphone MAP are at least as effective as classical MAP for discriminative speaker modeling on SWITCHBOARD data. We show how eigenvoice MAP can be modified to yield a new model-based channel compensation technique which we call eigenchannel MAP. When compared with multi-channel training, eigenchannel MAP was f...

The Chah-Shaljami polymetal ore deposit contains heavy metal anomalies in various mineralization zones. Geochemical distribution and correlation of elements in surficial soilsindicate that sulfide, sulfate, sulfosalt and silicate mineral occurrences (e.g. Pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena, sphalerite, molybdenite, enargite, hornblend and biotite) in mineralization and stockwork zones resulted in the...

in the present research, effects of modified atmosphere packaging (map) includingthree gas combinations and two packaging films (low density polyethylene (ldpe) andpolypropylene (pp)) on postharvest quality and storage-life of 'elberta' peach wereevaluated. the study was conducted as a factorial experiment based on crd(completely randomized design) with three replicates for 9 weeks. f...

‘zaferani’ peach, an important native iranian fruit, is a highly perishable fruit of limited shelf life. in the present research, effects of modified atmosphere packaging with three gas combinations (5% co2 + 2% o2, 10% co2 + 2% o2 and air) and two packaging films (polypropylene and low density polyethylene (ldpe)) on physicochemical characteristics and shelf life of 'zaferani' peach ...

This study clarifies whether secondary school students develop their argumentation skills through reading and collaboration. The students first constructed an individual argument diagram on genetically modified organisms, read three articles, and improved their diagrams. Next, they engaged in a chat debate, reflected on their debate by constructing a collaborative argument diagram on it, and fi...
