Introduction: Bacteria have at least one sigma factor (σ-factor) that transcribes the genes required for cell viability. Usually, transcription of σ-factors occurs and changes in response to a variety of environmental stresses. Expression of σ-factors is one of the strategies which is used in response to different stress conditions. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects...

For horocyclic products of percolation subtrees of regular trees, we show almost sure amenability. Under a symmetry condition concerning the growth of the two percolation trees, we show the existence of an increasing Følner sequence (which we call strong amenability).

In the present paper for two $mathfrak{A}$-module Banach algebras $A$ and $B$, we investigate relations between $varphi$-$mathfrak{A}$-module approximate amenability of $A$, $psi$-$mathfrak{A}$-module approximate amenability of $B$, and $varphioplus psi$-$mathfrak{A}$-module approximate amenability of $Aoplus B$ ($l^1$-direct sum of $A$ and $B$), where $varphiin$ Hom$_{mathfrak{A}}(A)$ and $psi...

We show that Tsirelson’s problem concerning the set of quantum correlations and Connes’ embedding problem on finite approximations in von Neumann algebras (known to be equivalent to Kirchberg’s QWEP conjecture) are essentially equivalent. Specifically, Tsirelson’s problem asks whether the set of bipartite quantum correlations generated between tensor product separated systems is the same as the...
