It was recently shown that for reasonable notions of approximation of states and functions by quantum circuits, almost all states and functions are exponentially hard to approximate 5]. The bounds obtained are asymptotically tight except for the one based on total variation distance (TVD). TVD is the most relevant metric for the performance of a quantum circuit. In this paper we obtain asymptot...

Modified LDL is a major cause of injury to the endothelium in diabetes. In the present study, we analyzed the effects on endothelial cells of LDL recovered from type 2 diabetic patients (dm-LDL) or from nondiabetic subjects (n-LDL). Treatment of human umbilical vein endothelial cells with dm-LDL, but not n-LDL, led to the accumulation of cells in G1. To dissect the molecular mechanisms of this ...

This paper deals with the extension of the WAF method to discretize Shallow Water Equations with pollutants. We consider two different versions of the WAF method, by approximating the intermediate waves using the flux of HLL or the direct approach of HLLC solver. It is seen that both versions can be written under the same form with different definitions for the approximation of the velocity wav...

In this paper, a mathematical model based on the T-S fuzzy is proposed to solve fault estimation (FE) and fault-tolerant control (FTC) problem for singular nonlinear time-varying delay (TVD) systems with sensor fault. TVD extremely difficult Laplace transform devised build an equal system free of TVD. Additionally, changed actuator by developed coordinate transformation. A learning estimator fi...

The acute toxic effect of different crude oils (heavy crude oil and bonny light crude oil) on embryos of marine medaka Oryzias melastigma was measured and evaluated by exposure to the water-accommodated fraction (WAF) in the present study. The cardiac function of medaka embryos was used as target organ of ecotoxicological effect induced by oil exposure. Results showed that the developing marine...

The purpose of this paper is to carry out a modification of the finite volume WENO (weighted essentially non-oscillatory) scheme of Titarev and Toro [10]. This modification is done by using the third order TVD flux [10] as building blocks in spatially fifth order WENO schemes, instead of the second order TVD flux proposed by Titarev and Toro. The resulting scheme improves both the original and ...

BACKGROUND Hydrolysis of the fruit phenolic glucosides occurring during oil extraction process is main biochemical reaction affecting biosynthesis and accumulation secoiridoid compounds in virgin olive oil. An integrated approach at molecular, biochemical, metabolic level was used to study ?-glucosidase gene family seven cultivars selected by their different profiles. RESULTS Eight genes have b...

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been implicated in the accelerated vascular injury occurring in diabetes. We recently reported that LDL prepared from type 2 diabetic patients (dm-LDL), but not normal LDL (n-LDL) triggered signal transducers and activators of transcription STAT5 activation and p21(waf) expression in endothelial cells (ECs). The aims of the present study were to inves...
