Abstract We construct examples of p -adic L -functions over universal deformation spaces for $${{\,\mathrm{GL}\,}}_2$$ GL 2 . formulate a conjecture predicting that the natural parameter and Euler systems are not usual eigenvarietie...

identity of 'I am sure' to the definite identity of 'I know, and am aware'. The particular grade of consciousness on which Kantism conceives the mind is perception: which is also the general point of view taken by ordinary consciousness, and more or less by the sciences. The sensuous certitudes of single apperceptions or observations form the starting-point: these are supposed to be elevated to...

Background and Aim: Data regarding the efficacy of universal adhesives are limited. This study aimed to assess the durability of a universal adhesive bond to superficial dentin using etch and rinse and self-etch modes. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro, experimental study, 32 sound molars were randomly divided into two groups of Scotchbond Universal adhesive with two-step etch and rins...

We study the time evolution of classical spin systems with purely relaxational dynamics, quenched from T ≫ T c to the critical point, in the semi-infinite geometry. Shortly after the quench, like in the bulk, a nonequilibrium regime governed by universal power laws is also found near the surface. We show for 'ordinary' and 'special' transitions that the corresponding critical exponents differ f...

– We study the electron thermal transport in granular metals at large tunnel conductance between the grains, gT 1, and not too low a temperature, T > gTδ, where δ is the mean energy level spacing for a single grain. Taking into account the electron-electron interaction effects, we calculate the thermal conductivity and show that the Wiedemann-Franz law is violated for granular metals. We find t...

Spectrophotometric observations of the jovian satellite Io on 20 and 21 February 1978 (Universal Time) were made from 1.2 to 5.4 micrometers. Io's brightness at 4.7 to 5.4 micrometers was found to be three to five times greater at an orbital phase angle of 68 degrees than at orbital phase angles of 23 degrees (5.5 hours before the brightening) and 240 degrees (20 hours after the brightening). S...

This paper studies the gravitational collapse of a complex scalar Beld at the threshold for black hole formation, assuming that the collapse is spherically symmetric and continuously self-similar. A new solution of the coupled Einstein-scalar Beld equations is derived, after a small amount of numerical work with ordinary difFerential equations. The universal scaling and echoing behavior discove...

In this paper we give a semantics of higher-order functional-logic programming in the framework of typed universal algebra. The functional-logic language concerned here is an applicative term rewriting system in which there is no lambda abstraction mechanism. Therefore ordinary rst-order narrowing can be used to solve higher-order query. The soundness and completeness of narrowing for both the ...

With Monte Carlo simulations, we study the dynamic relaxation at perfect and imperfect surfaces of the three-dimensional Ising model with an ordered initial state. The time evolution of the surface magnetization, the line magnetization of the defect line, and the corresponding susceptibilities and second cumulants is carefully examined. Universal dynamic scaling forms including a dynamic crosso...

We present a logic for reasoning about graded inequalities which generalizes the ordinary inequational logic used in universal algebra. The logic deals with atomic predicate formulas of the form of inequalities between terms and formalizes their semantic entailment and provability in graded setting which allows to draw partially true conclusions from partially true assumptions. We follow the Pa...
