The purpose of this note is to describe when a general complex algebraic $^*$-algebra pre-$C^*$-normed, and investigate their structure the $^*$-algebras are Baer $^*$-rings in addition algebraicity. As main result we prove following theorem for $^*$-algebras: every kind can be decomposed as direct sum $M\oplus B$, where $M$ finite dimensional $B$ commutative $^*$-algebra. summand $^*$-isomorph...

BACKGROUND Short-segment pedicle-screw instrumentation is frequently used to stabilize thoracolumbar burst fractures. A recognized disadvantage of this procedure is recurrent kyphosis from intervertebral disc creep into the fractured central endplate. Balloon Assisted Endplate Reduction (BAER) using Tricalcium Phosphate bone cement (TCP) enables elevation of the centrally depressed endplate. Ou...

Three types of subsets of PG(2, q2) of type (0, 1, 2, q + 1) are defined, namely CF -sets, K -sets and H -sets. These subsets may also be obtained as the intersection of the Hermitian curve H with Baer subpencils of lines with vertex not on H. It is shown that under the Bruck–Bose representation these subsets correspond to three-dimensional elliptic quadrics, quadratic cones and hyperbolic quad...

in this paper, we introduce a class of $j$-quasipolar rings. let $r$ be a ring with identity. an element $a$ of a ring $r$ is called {it weakly $j$-quasipolar} if there exists $p^2 = pin comm^2(a)$ such that $a + p$ or $a-p$ are contained in $j(r)$ and the ring $r$ is called {it weakly $j$-quasipolar} if every element of $r$ is weakly $j$-quasipolar. we give many characterizations and investiga...

We identify the points of PG(2, q) with the directions of lines in GF(q3), viewed as a 3dimensional affine space over GF(q). Within this framework we associate to a unital in PG(2, q) a certain polynomial in two variables, and show that the combinatorial properties of the unital force certain restrictions on the coefficients of this polynomial. In particular, if q = p2 where p is prime then we ...

All sets of lines providing a partition of the set of internal points to a conic C in PG(2, q), q odd, are determined. There exist only three such linesets up to projectivities, namely the set of all nontangent lines to C through an external point to C, the set of all nontangent lines to C through a point in C, and, for square q, the set of all nontangent lines to C belonging to a Baer subplane...
