We define a numerical invariant, the differential Swan conductor, for certain differential modules on a rigid analytic annulus over a p-adic field. This gives a definition of a conductor for p-adic Galois representations with finite local monodromy over an equal characteristic discretely valued field, which agrees with the usual Swan conductor when the residue field is perfect. We also establis...

We present a retrospective on the LBNL Positron Emission Mammography (PEM) project, looking back on our design and experiences. The LBNL PEM camera utilizes detector modules that are capable of measuring depth of interaction (DOI) and places them into 4 detector banks in a rectangular geometry. In order to build this camera, we had to develop the DOI detector module, LSO etching, Lumirror-epoxy...

Partitioning a digital circuit into modules before implementing on a single chip is key to balancing between test cost and test correctness of built-in current testing (BICT). Most partitioning methods use statistic analysis to find the threshold value and then to determine the size of a module. These methods are rigid and inflexible since IDDQ testing requires the measurement of an analog quan...

 The class of ads modules with the SIP (briefly‎, ‎$SA$-modules) is studied‎. ‎Various conditions for a module to be $SA$-module are given‎. ‎It is proved that for a quasi-continuous module $M$‎, ‎$M$ is a UC-module if and only if $M$ is an $SA$-module‎. ‎Also‎, ‎it is proved that the direct sum of two $SA$-modules as $R$-modules is an $SA$-module when $R$ is the sum of the annihilators of thes...

In this paper we introduce a new class of modules which is closely related to the class of Noetherian modules. Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and let $M$ be an $R$-module such that $Nil(M)$ is a divided prime submodule of $M$. $M$ is called a Nonnil-Noetherian $R$-module if every nonnil submodule of $M$ is finitely generated. We prove that many of the properties of Noetherian modul...

‎we introduce a generalization of the notion of‎ depth of an ideal on a module by applying the concept of‎ local cohomology modules with respect to a pair‎ ‎of ideals‎. ‎we also introduce the concept of $(i,j)$-cohen--macaulay modules as a generalization of concept of cohen--macaulay modules‎. ‎these kind of modules are different from cohen--macaulay modules‎, as an example shows‎. ‎also an art...

let $x$ be a sufficiently nice scheme. we survey some recent progress on dualizing complexes. it turns out that a complex in $kinj x$ is dualizing if and only if tensor product with it induces an equivalence of categories from murfet's new category $kmpr x$ to the category $kinj x$. in these terms, it becomes interesting to wonder how to glue such equivalences.
