This paper investigates the efficient parallelization of algorithms with strong stability guarantees to factor dense symmetric indefinite matrices. It shows how the bounded Bunch-Kaufman algorithm may be efficiently parallelized, and then how its performance can be enhanced by using exhaustive block searching techniques, which is effective in keeping most symmetric interchanges within the curre...

McKusick-Kaufman syndrome is a rare syndrome inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern with a phenotypic triad comprising hydrometrocolpos, postaxial polydactyly and congenital cardiac disease. The syndrome is caused by mutations in the MKKS gene mapped onto chromosome 20p12. Diagnosis of this syndrome is based on clinical and imaging findings. In our paper, we have presented the first McKusi...

When the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC; A. S. Kaufman & N. L. Kaufman, 1983a, 1983b) was published just over 10 years ago, it had many unique features, including its information processing model and specific recommendations for educational remediation. Although the test has received much attention because of these characteristics, the K-ABC has also been the subject of much con...

We investigate a general theory of the Z2-twisted representations of vertex operator superalgebras. Certain one-to-one correspondence theorems are established. We also give an explicit realization of the Ising model SVOA and its Z2-twisted modules. As an application, we obtain the Gerald Höhn’s Babymonster SVOA VB♮ and its Z2-twisted module VB ♮ tw from the moonshine VOA V ♮ by cutting off the ...

If you are an Englishman you will begin by being irritated by Mr. Kaufman?I almost wrote " by having Mr. Kaufman irritate you "?such is the obtrusiveness of the American idiom when the title page has given you no inkling Mr. Kaufman is not London based. But this mere pettifog that carps. The main irritation is the slow build-up of the tale. Mr. Kaufman is in no mood to jag his backcloth with ey...

0 NE day in 1976 THOM KAUFMAN called me in great excitement. KAUFMAN and I shared an interest in Drosophila homeotic genes located near the third chre mosome centromere. He had recently arrived at Indiana University, and the results of his first set of crosses convinced him that these genes were part of a complex important to anterior developmental commitments (KAuFMAN et aL 1980), just as ED L...
