Throughout this work we deal with a natural number g ≥ 2 and with an algebraically closed field k whose characteristic differs from 2. A hyperelliptic curve of genus g over k is a smooth curve of genus g, that is a double cover of the projective line P. The Riemann-Hurwitz formula implies that this covering should be ramified at 2g + 2 points. Because of this explicit description, hyperelliptic...

In this article we apply signal detection theory to qualitatively unify the intensity justnoticable difference (JND) and masking data of Wegel and Lane (1924), Fletcher and Munson (1933 – 1938), Miller (1947), and Egan and Hake (1950). We do this by treating the loudness as the first moment, and the intensity JND as the second moment, of the random variable we call the single-trial loudness. Fr...

In earlier work, the second named author described how one may extract Darmonstyle L -invariants from modular forms on Shimura curves that are special at p. In this paper, we show that these L -invariants are preserved by the Jacquet–Langlands correspondence. As a consequence, we prove the second named author’s period conjecture in the case where the base field is Q. As a further application of...

We construct three-dimensional families of hyperelliptic curves of genus 6, 12, and 14, two-dimensional families of hyperelliptic curves of genus 3, 6, 7, 10, 20, and 30, and one-dimensional families of hyperelliptic curves of genus 5, 10 and 15, all of which are equipped with an an explicit isogeny from their Jacobian to another hyperelliptic Jacobian. We show that the Jacobians are genericall...

In this paper simple quartic trigonometric polynomial blending functions, with a tensionparameter, are presented. These type of functions are useful for constructing trigonometricB´ezier curves and surfaces, they can be applied to construct continuous shape preservinginterpolation spline curves with shape parameters. To better visualize objects and graphics atension parameter is included. In th...

various scaling methods such as relative viscosity, peclet and reynolds scaling were used to find the best scaling law. scaling and modeling of the flow curves of various model emulsions consist of tragacanth gum (tg) (0.5, 1 % wt), oleic acid (5, 10% v/v) and wpi (2, 4 % wt) were investigated and the best models were selected. as these emulsions are non-newtonian, they do not obey the usual, si...

‎In the present study‎, ‎we consider a regular curve in Galilean‎ ‎$4$-space $mathbb{G}_{4}$ whose position vector is written as a‎ ‎linear combination of its Frenet vectors‎. ‎We characterize such‎ ‎curves in terms of their curvature functions‎. ‎Further‎, ‎we obtain‎ ‎some results of rectifying‎, ‎constant ratio‎, ‎$T$-constant and‎ ‎$N$-constant curves in $mathbb{G}_{4}$‎.

Global convergence results are derived for well-known conjugate gradient methods in which the line search step is replaced by a step whose length is determined by a formula. The results include the following cases: 1. The Fletcher-Reeves method, the Hestenes-Stiefel method, and the Dai-Yuan method applied to a strongly convex LC objective function; 2. The Polak-Ribière method and the Conjugate ...

perfused organs to examine sugar catabolism and metabolism, Holmes underscores the relationship between the laboratory elucidation of a significant intermediate compound like acetone and the clinical knowledge of ketone body production in diabetes. But, he concludes, the early-twentieth-century integrative optimism evaporated, to be re-formulated in the 1930s with the announcement of the "Embde...
