Following a baryogenesis scenario proposed by Lazarides, Panagiotakopoulos and Shafi, we show how the observed baryon asymmetry can be explained via resonant leptogenesis in a class of supersymmetric models with an intermediate mass scale MI . 10 9 GeV. It involves the out of equilibrium decay of heavy (. MI) right handed neutrinos at a temperature close to the TeV supersymmetry breaking scale....

study of morphological traits of red fleshed apples is a critical step to improve the quality andcommercializing of them. in order to study genetic diversity of iranian red fleshed apples, a total of 17morphological characteristics were assessed for eight genotypes of red- fleshed (‘haji qermez’, ‘goushtqermez’, ‘shahroud-10’, ‘arous gousht qermz’, ‘b.9’, ‘qazvin 1, 2, 3’) and 12 iranian and fo...

We show that indistinguishability obfuscation implies that all functions with sufficient “pseudoentropy” cannot be obfuscated under a virtual black box definition with a universal simulator. Let F = {fs} be a circuit family with super-polynomial pseudo-entropy, and suppose O is a candidate obfuscator with universal simulator S. We demonstrate the existence of an adversary A that, given the obfu...

OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency and severity of leucopenia during antiviral treatment in patients with hepatitis C and the effectiveness of G-CSF (Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor) in its management. STUDY DESIGN An observational study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Shafi Clinic, Rawalpindi, from July 2005 to July 2007. METHODOLOGY Patients with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) pos...

We present a (randomized) test for monotonicity of Boolean functions. Namely, given the ability to query an unknown function at arguments of its choice, the test always accepts a monotone , and rejects with high probability if it is -far from being monotone (i.e., every monotone function differs from on more than an fraction of the domain). The complexity of the test is ! #" %$ . The analysis o...

We investigate the lepton flavor violation in the framework of the MSSM with right-handed neutrinos taking the large mixing angle MSW solution in the quasidegenerate and the inverse-hierarchical neutrino masses. We predict the branching ratio of μ → e + γ and τ → μ + γ processes assuming the degenerate right-handed Majorana neutrino masses. We find that the branching ratio in the quasi-degenera...

We initiate the investigation of a new kind of e ciency for cryptographic transformations. The idea is that having once applied the transformation to some documentM , the time to update the result upon modi cation of M should be \proportional" to the \amount of modi cation" done to M . Thereby one obtains much faster cryptographic primitives for environments where closely related documents are ...
