We show that N = 2 supersymmetric Maxwell-Chern-SimonsHiggs systems in three dimension can be realized as gauge theories on a D2-brane in D8-branes background with a non-zero B-field. We reproduce a potential of Coulomb branch of the Chern-Simons theory as a potential of a D2-brane in a classical D8-brane solution and show that each Coulomb vacuum is realized by a D2-brane stabilized in the bul...

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We calculate the vertices of all indecomposable kD8-modules for the dihedral group D8 of order 8. We also give a conjectural formula of the induced module of a string module from kT0 to kG where G is a dihedral group G of order ≥ 8 and where T0 is a dihedral subgroup of index 2 of G. Some cases where we verified this formula are given.

35 years old male patient presented clinically with progressive lower limb weakness and impotence of 3 years duration, disturbance of micturation with few drops of urine passing without the patient control was a prominent symptom. On examination the patient had atrophy of the anterior tibial group of muscles on the right side, with bilateral spasticity in both lower limbs and a sensory level at...

Risk stratification and treatment intensification, based on minimal residual disease (MRD) mensurement, changed the prognosis of pediatric patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). The main aim of this study was to investigate whether peripheral blood (PB) MRD measurement at day 8 (D8) could predict the risk stratification category determined by bone marrow (BM) MRD at day 15 (D15). The s...

BACKGROUND Radiation therapy is a well-recognized, effective modality used for palliative care. Most studies completed to date have endpoints of one month or greater after treatment completion. This study analyzed the response rates at different time points during the first month after treatment. METHODS From May 2010 to November 2011, 61 patients treated for 74 metastases were included in th...

We consider non-BPS D8 (and D7) branes in type 0 open string theory and describe under which circumstances these branes are stable. We find stable non-BPS D7 and D8 in type 0 with and without D9-branes in the background. By extending the descent relations between D-branes to type 0 theories, the non-BPS D8-brane is considered as the result of a tachyon condensation of a D9 anti-D9 pair in type ...
