As of April 2007, Griffin P. Rodgers has taken over as director of the NIDDK, but had been the deputy director under Allen Spiegel since 2001 and the chief of Hematology since 1998. The JCI took the opportunity to ask this career investigator in the NIH about his goals and visions for the NIDDK. JCI: You moved quickly from chief of Hematology to deputy director of the NIDDK to director — what d...

the notion of a probabilistic metric  space  corresponds to thesituations when we do not know exactly the  distance.  probabilistic metric space was  introduced by karl menger. alsina, schweizer and sklar gave a general definition of  probabilistic normed space based on the definition of menger [1]. in this note we study the pn spaces which are  topological vector spaces and the open mapping an...

Let G be a connected simple graph. We prove that G is a closed graph if and only if G is a proper interval graph. As a consequence we obtain that there exist linear-time algorithms for closed graph recognition.

A total of 121 steers (162 ± 3.0 kg BW and 148 ± 2.7 d old) were used to study the effect of dietary energy density and meal size (limiting the amount of concentrate delivered at each feeder visit) on performance, hormones associated with the regulation of intake, and carcass and meat quality. Steers were allocated by BW to 6 pens. Each pen had the same BW mean and CV, and pens were randomly as...

in the present paper, we study some properties of fuzzy norm of linear operators. at first the bounded inverse theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces is investigated. then, we prove hahn banach theorem, uniform boundedness theorem and closed graph theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces. finally the set of all compact operators on these spaces is studied.
