In this paper we introduce the class of Wp scale mixture random vectors with a particular radial decomposition and a independent splitting property specified by some random variable Wp, p ∈ (0,∞). We derive several conditional limit results assuming that the distribution of the random radius is in the max-domain of attraction of a univariate extreme value distribution andWp has a certain tail a...

We establish a phase transition for permutation classes (downsets of permutations under the permutation containment order): there is an algebraic number κ, approximately 2.20557, for which there are only countablymany permutation classes of growth rate (StanleyWilf limit) less than κ but uncountably many permutation classes of growth rate κ, answering a question of Klazar. We go on to completel...

conclusions roll stitch technique had superior outcome compared to the modified kessler technique, when performed in the mcpj area. level of evidence: therapeutic (level iii) background proper suturing technique is needed to ensure good outcome in extensor tendon surgery. different techniques have been reported for the repair of extensor tendon injuries at the level of the metacarpophalangeal j...
