Mixtures of dihydrocholesterol and phospholipids form immiscible liquids in monolayer membranes at the air-water interface under specified conditions of temperature and 2-dimensional pressure. In recent work it has been discovered that a number of these mixtures exhibit two upper miscibility critical points. Pairs of upper critical points can be accounted for by a theoretical model that implies...

We study the quantum ( $$C^*$$ ) convexity structure of normalized positive operator valued measures (POVMs) on measurable spaces. In particular, it is seen that unlike extreme points under classical convexity, -extreme POVMs countable spaces (in particular for finite sets) are always spectral (normalized projection measures). More generally shown atomic spectral. A Krein–Milman type theorem ha...

For a unital foundation topological *-semigroup S whose representations separate points of S, we show that the spectrum of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra B(S) is a compact semitopological semigroup. We also calculate B(S) for several examples of S.

The structure of the gaussian auxiliary field approximation in the theory of phase ordering kinetics is analysed with the aim of placing the method within the context of a systematic theory. While we are unable to do this for systems with a scalar order parameter, where the approximation remains uncontrolled, a systematic development about the gaussian approximation can be outlined for systems ...

begin{abstract} in this paper, we prove some strong and weak convergence of three step random iterative scheme with errors to common random fixed points of three asymptotically nonexpansive nonself random mappings in a real uniformly convex separable banach space. end{abstract}

abstractin this study, the tensile force requirement, to separate the grain paddy was measured. the velocities of grain paddy it 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mm/min, and force requirement to failure stem at 100, 300, and 500 mm/min velocities was measured by using instron device. the data was analyzed using a completely randomized design. the results showed that velocity had a significant effect...

DEAD-box proteins are ubiquitous in RNA metabolism and use ATP to mediate RNA conformational changes. These proteins have been suggested to use a fundamentally different mechanism from the related DNA and RNA helicases, generating local strand separation while remaining tethered through additional interactions with structured RNAs and RNA-protein (RNP) complexes. Here, we provide a critical tes...

We prove a max-min theorem for weak containment in the context of algebraic actions. Namely, we show that given an action $G$ on $X,$ there is maximal, closed $G$-invariant subgroup $Y$ $X$ so weakly contained Bernoulli shift. This also minimal any shift $G\curvearrowright X/Y$-ergodic presence X$. give several applications, including major simplification proof measure entropy equals topologica...

a module $m$ is said to be coretractable if there exists a nonzero homomorphism of every nonzero factor of $m$ into $m$. we prove that all right (left) modules over a ring are coretractable if and only if the ring is morita equivalent to a finite product of local right and left perfect rings.
