Pasteuria penetrans is an obligate, mycelial, and endospore-forming bacterial parasite of Meloidogyne spp. with promise for the management of root-knot nematodes. Our objective was to use regression analysis of developmental time (days) to various temperatures to determine the minimal temperature for growth and development of P. penetrans in Meloidogyne spp. The data set for regression originat...

In this paper, we prove some fixed points properties and demiclosedness principle for a Banach operator in uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces. We further propose an iterative scheme for approximating a fixed point of a Banach operator and establish some strong and $Delta$-convergence theorems for such operator in the frame work of uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces. The results obtained in this...

‎In this paper we characterize Bergman spaces with‎ ‎respect to double integral of the functions $|f(z)‎ ‎-f(w)|/|z-w|$,‎ ‎$|f(z)‎ -‎f(w)|/rho(z,w)$ and $|f(z)‎ ‎-f(w)|/beta(z,w)$,‎ ‎where $rho$ and $beta$ are the pseudo-hyperbolic and hyperbolic metrics‎. ‎We prove some necessary and sufficient conditions that implies a function to be...

For image estimation we use a hyperbolic penalty function. The center of a hyperbola is parabolic like `2 norm fitting. Its asymptotes are like `1 norm fitting. A transition threshold must be chosen for regression equations of data fitting and another for model regularization. We adapt the conjugate direction method to solve this problem in a manner we call the HYCD method. We present examples ...

a simplified approach for nonlinear analysis of the load-displacement response of a single pile and a pile group is presented using the load-transfer approach. a hyperbolic model is used to capture the relationship between unit skin friction and pile-soil relative displacement developed at the pile-soil interface and the load-displacement relationship developed at the pile end. as to the nonlin...

Kuriki and Fuji-Hara (1994) introduced an (r, 2)-design with mutually balanced nested subdesigns ((r, 2)-design with MBN), which is equivalent to a balanced array of strength 2 with s symbols, and gave some constructions of such (r, 2)-designs. In this paper, we consider cyclic orthogonal and balanced arrays, and we give a cyclic version of the results obtained by them. Furthermore, we give a c...

This paper examines the two-fund separation paradigm in the context of an infinite-horizon general equilibrium model with dynamically complete markets and heterogeneous consumers with timeand state-separable utility functions. With the exception of the dynamic structure, we maintain the assumptions of the classical static models that exhibit two-fund separation with a riskless security. Agents ...

The recent interest both in partitions of finite geometries into other geometric objects and in the classical Segre varieties over finite fields are the background motivation for this paper. More precisely, partitions of Segre varieties into Segre varieties are investigated and the idea of nested partitions is introduced. Other partitions, namely of projective spaces and hyperbolic quadrics, ar...

Abstra t. A hara ter-based en oding method is presented for naturallanguage texts and geneti data. Exa t string mat hing from the en oded text is faster than from the original text, with medium and longer patterns. A ompression ratio of about 50% is a hieved as a by-produ t. The method en odes hara ters with variable-length odewords of 2-bit base symbols. An advan ed variant is ontext-dependent...
