the matrix functions appear in several applications in engineering and sciences. the computation of these functions almost involved complicated theory. thus, improving the concept theoretically seems unavoidable to obtain some new relations and algorithms for evaluating these functions. the aim of this paper is proposing some new reciprocal for the function of block anti diagonal matrices. more...

in the research we try to introduce “network matrix” in selecting optimizing portfolio for active management in investment companies, to evaluating obtained portfolio of this, with this aim that have high efficiency in relation to market portfolio efficiency. first matrix (portfolio) is value-growth stocks that are classified by standards p/e and p/b and second matrix (portfolio) are an aggress...

results genotype frequencies of g/a in fertile and infertile men were significantly different (χ2 = 4.16, df = 1, p = 0.041). genotype frequencies of g/g and a/ain fertile and infertile men were not significantly different (χ2 = 3.32, df = 1, p = 0.068 and χ2 = 0.521, df = 1, p = 0.47, respectively). the risk of infertility was 1.43 folds higher in individuals with the a/a genotype compared to ...
