In this article, we describe explicitely the Gorenstein locus of all minuscule Schubert varieties. This proves a special case of a conjecture of A. Woo and A. Yong [WY06b] on the Gorenstein locus of Schubert varieties.

A general working theory of how raceand culture-specific factors interact in such a way as to produce people with differing world views is proposed. Empirical and clinical data are reviewed that indicate two psychological concepts—locus of control and locus of responsibility—may be useful in explaining how world views are formed and their consequent dynamics. Four world views are identified: (a...

Traditional and modified locus equations (LE) were used to examine the interaction of tone on the coarticulation of C+V of a tone bearing syllable as a function of tone (Mid and High) and speech style (citation and sentence). Traditional LE slope found no significant coarticulatory differences for Midtone relative to Low-tone condition, but showed higher slopes for sentence relative to citation...

Our aim was to examine the thigh, as a potential locus for directional orienting, within the vertical plane when the operator is seated (Figure 1). Specifically: (a) Examine the ability to locate a vibrotactile stimulation embracing the thigh. (b) Determine which region along the thigh provided more accurate localization. (c) Compare different burst durations and pulse repetitions which could l...

This paper extends previous results of the authors, concerning the behaviour of the equimultiple locus of algebroid surfaces under blowing–up, to arbitrary characteristic.
