It is proved that for a non-Sasakian η-Einstein (κ, μ)-manifold M the following three conditions are equivalent: (a) M is flat and 3-dimensional, (b) M is Ricci-semisymmetric, and (c) M is ξ-Riccisemisymmetric. Then it is proved that an ξ-Ricci-semisymmetric (κ, μ)manifold M is either flat and 3-dimensional, or locally isometric to E × S(4), or an Einstein-Sasakian manifold. Mathematics Subject...

A rectangular rod is placed in a flow field flowing parallel to a flat plate. Effect of chord-thickness ratio of rectangular rod on developing vortex shedding downstream to the rod is studied. Then, for each one of the aspect ratios, the distance of the rod from the neighboring flat plate is reduced until the rod sticks to the flat plate. In each case, the effect of the flat plate boundary laye...

dually flat finsler metrics form a special and valuable class of finsler metrics in finsler information geometry,which play a very important role in studying flat finsler information structure. in this paper, we prove that everylocally dually flat generalized randers metric with isotropic s-curvature is locally minkowskian.

let r be a commutative noetherian ring. we study the behavior of injectiveand at dimension of r-modules under the functors homr(-,-) and -×r-.

Previous investigations have revealed that Bacillus coagulans strain 43P is sensitive to the polypeptide antibiotic nisin (O'Brien et al., 1956; Campbell and Sniff, 1959; Campbell, Sniff, and O'Brien, 1959). It has also been found that nisin is effective in the control of the flat sour spoilage of tomato juice in inoculated pack studies with this strain of B. coagulans (Campbell et al., 1959). ...

AIMS AND BACKGROUND The histopathological picture of mycosis fungoides can be characterized by heavy reactive infiltrates. These are rarely composed of B lymphocytes with formation of reactive follicles. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN We collected three cases of mycosis fungoides with a reactive B-cell lymphofollicular reaction at the bottom of the epidermotropic infiltrate. RESULTS Case 1 showed...

The flat oyster Ostrea edulis L. is widespread along the Italian coasts. In particular, the Manfredonia Gulf (Adriatic Sea) represents an important site where natural beds subsist. Previous monitoring conducted in 1990 by light microscopy and ultrastructural studies revealed the presence of Bonamia-like microcell parasites in some flat oysters: following this observation, a new sampling of O. e...

Bonamiosis due to the parasite Bonamia ostreae has been associated with massive mortality in flat oyster stocks in Europe. Control of the disease currently relies on disease management practices and transfer restriction. Previously, massal selections based on survival to challenge to infection with B. ostreae have been applied to produce flat oyster families with resistant progeny. In an attemp...

We consider the Schrödinger operator on the zigzag and armchair nanotubes (tightbinding models) in a uniform magnetic field B and in an external periodic electric potential. The magnetic and electric fields are parallel to the axis of the nanotube. We show that this operator is unitarily equivalent to the finite orthogonal sum of Jacobi operators. We describe all spectral bands and all eigenval...
