In this paper, we study the approximate biprojectivity and biflatness of a Banach algebra A find some relations between theses concepts with ?-amenability ? -contractibility, where is character on A. Among other things, show that ?-Lau product L1(G) ?? A(G) approximately biprojective if only G finite, are group Fourier locally compact G, respectively. We also characterize biflat semigroup algeb...

It used multilevel piecewise growth models regressing children’s math and reading achievement from entry into kindergarten through the third grad...

A study was performed to examine the changes in density of stacked roundwood, chips, and chunks as affected by various compaction treatments. Density of stacked roundwood bolts was tested for the effect of stacking orientation, binding of the stack ends, and species. Stacked bolt wood occupied less than 50 percent of the total rack space for all species, giving final dry bulk densities, based o...
