Building on [4], [8] and [9] we study which cardinals are characterizable by a Scott sentence, in the sense that φM characterizes κ, if it has a model of size κ, but not of κ. We show that if אα is characterizable by a Scott sentence and β < ω1, then אα+β is characterizable by a Scott sentence. If 0 < γ < ω1, then the same is true for 2אα+γ . Also, אא0 α is characterizable by a Scott sentence. ...

introduction:  il-8 is one of the pro-inflammatory cytokines which can play an essential role in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis (crs) as well as nasal polyposis (np). the ability of individuals in producing il-8 is partially determined by il-8-251 a/t polymorphism. hence, the aim of the present study was to investigate the association between il-8-251 a/t and cxcr2 +1208 c/t genes p...

Recently, we initiated in [Systems Control Lett., 26 (1995), pp. 245–251] the study of exponential stability of neutral stochastic functional differential equations, and in this paper, we shall further our study in this area. We should emphasize that the main technique employed in this paper is the well-known Razumikhin argument and is completely different from those used in our previous paper ...

We transfer an optical frequency over 251 km of optical fiber with a residual instability of 6x10(-19) at 100 s. This instability and the associated timing jitter are limited fundamentally by the noise on the optical fiber and the link length. We give a simple expression for calculating the achievable instability and jitter over a fiber link. Transfer of optical stability over this long distanc...

This course prepares students to apply computational approaches to data analysis and visualization to real information from a variety of disciplines and applications. Data visualization is the interactive visual exploration of information using 2-D and 3-D graphics using techniques that highlight patterns and relationships. Data analysis incorporates data management, data transformations, stati...

An accumulation of knowledge with respect to biodiversity on the earth has continued for many years because of its great importance and the interest in investigating it. But further studies are necessary for bacterial biodiversity to reach the stage of complete elucidation. Moreover there is a trial calculation that only 1% of bacteria that actually exist on earth have been isolated (Rondon et ...

We extend the Billera–Ehrenborg–Readdy map between the intersection lattice and face lattice of a central hyperplane arrangement to affine and toric hyperplane arrangements. For arrangements on the torus, we also generalize Zaslavsky’s fundamental results on the number of regions.

A reduction process to construct hidden hierarchies corresponding to the Gelfand– Dickey ones is outlined in a specific example, not yet treated in the literature.
