Studies of ancient Egyptian religion have examined texts for evidence of cattle worship, but the picture given by the texts is incomplete. Mortuary patterns, ceremonial buildings, grave goods, ceramics and other remains also contain evidence of cattle worship and underline its importance to early Egypt. The recently discovered cattle tumuli at Nabta Playa in the Western Desert are identified he...

Some random xed point theorems for set-valued random operators under very mild conditions are established. Some recent results of O'Regan ([Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 126 (1998), 3045{3053] and [Computers Math. Applic. 35 (1998), 27{34]) are improved signi cantly. The discussion in this paper underlines, in addition to generality, the unifying aspects of our result.

In this paper, we obtain the Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability of the generalized Pexider functional equation ∑ k∈K f(x+ k · y) = |K|g(x) + |K|h(y), x, y ∈ G, where G is an abelian group, K is a finite abelian subgroup of the group of automorphism of G. The concept of Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability originated from Th.M. Rassias’ Stability Theorem that appeared in his paper: On the stability of the lin...
