mixed convection fluid flow and heat transfer of water-al2o3 nanofluid inside a lid-driven square cavity has been examined numerically in order to find the optimal distribution of discrete heat sources on the wall of a cavity. the effects of different heat source length, richardson number and grashof number on optimal heat source location has been investigated. moreover, the average nusselt num...

“Progress during the past years in the technological and methodological aspects of research (in agricultural education) has not been accompanied by comparable improvements in another very important aspect of research, namely, the relevance, significance, and importance of problems and issues that we investigate . . . I propose that our highest priority for continuing progress in research in agr...

across metropolitan areas in their changing levels of housing discrimination, with the aim of exploring whether they are “causally” related to corresponding variations in fair housing enforcement activities during the 1990s, controlling for other factors. The specific research questions include: How do changes in the 1989–2000 incidence of racial/ethnic discriminatory behaviors of various sorts...

The product of any finite number of factorial Schur functions can be expanded as a Z[y]-linear combination of Schur functions. We give a rule for computing the coefficients in such an expansion which generalizes a specialization of the Molev-Sagan rule, which in turn generalizes the classical Littlewood-Richardson rule.

The product of any finite number of Schur and factorial Schur functions can be expanded as a Z[y]-linear combination of Schur functions. We give a rule for computing the coefficients in such an expansion which generalizes the classical Littlewood-Richardson rule.

Let G be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. In this note, we show that an irreducible closed subvariety of the flag variety of G is compatibly split by the unique canonical Frobenius splitting if and only if it is a Richardson variety, i.e. an intersection of a Schubert and an opposite Schubert variety.

This paper focuses on the GLn tensor product algebra, which encapsulates the decomposition of tensor products of arbitrary irreducible representations of GLn. We will describe an explicit basis for this algebra. This construction relates directly with the combinatorial description of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients in terms of Littlewood-Richardson tableaux. Philosophically, one may view thi...
