In this paper, we introduce a generalized class of an Hv-semigroup obtained from an LA-semigroup H. This generalized Hv-structure is called an Hv-LA-semigroup. We provide several examples of Hv-LA-semigroups. Moreover, with the help of an example we obtain that each LA-semigroup endowed with an equivalence relation can induce an Hv-LA-semigroup. We also investigate isomorphism theorems with the...

In order to research the logical system whose propositional value is given in a lattice from the semantic viewpoint, Xu [7] proposed the concept of lattice implication algebras, and discussed some of their properties. Xu and Qin [8] introduced the notion of implicative filters in a lattice implication algebra, and investigated some of their properties. Turunen [5] introduced the notion of Boole...

A positive answer to the open problem of Iorgulescu on extending weak-R 0 algebras and R 0-algebras to the noncommutative forms is given. We show that pseudo-weak-R 0 algebras are categorically isomorphic to pseudo-IMTL algebras and that pseudo-R 0 algebras are categorically isomorphic to pseudo-NM algebras. Some properties, the noncommutative forms of the properties in weak-R 0 algebras and R ...

The basic reproductive rate (R0) is a measure of the severity of an epidemic. On the basis of replicated Latin hypercube sampling, the authors performed an uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of the basic reproductive rate of tuberculosis (TB). The uncertainty analysis allowed for the derivation of a frequency distribution for R0 and the assessment of the relative contribution each of the thre...

The most simplified axiom systems of pseudo-weak-R0 algebras and pseudo-R0 algebras are obtained, and the mutually independence of axioms is proved. We introduce the notions of filters and normal filters in pseudo-weak-R0 algebras. The structures and properties of the generated filters and generated normal filters in pseudo-weak-R0 algebras are obtained. These can be seen as noncommutative gene...

New insecticides that exhibited high compatibility with environment components are very promising substitutes for control of the economic insects. Simi-field experiments were conducted on profenofos and four novel insecticides viz., spinosad, emamectin-benzoate, pyridalyl and indoxacarb to investigate their efficiency and the field persistence of their residues against 4 instar larvae of the co...

The basic reproduction number, R0, is often defined as the average number of infections generated by a newly infected individual in a fully susceptible population. The interpretation, meaning, and derivation of R0 are controversial. However, in the context of mean field models, R0 demarcates the epidemic threshold below which the infected population approaches zero in the limit of time. In this...

An AC voltmeter is a device that measures the (peak) oscillating current I0 across a large resistor R0 that is attached to leads whose tips, 1 and 2, may be connected to some other circuit. The reading of the voltmeter (if properly calibrated) is Vmeter = I0(R0 + Rleads) where Rleads R0. AC voltmeters typically report the root-mean-square voltage Vrms = I0(R0 +Rleads)/ √ 2 rather than I0(R0 +Rl...
