It is shown that sequences of generalized semi-Markov processes converge in the sense of weak convergence of random functions if associated sequences of defining elements (initial distributions, transition functions and clock time distributions) converge. This continuity or stability is used to obtain information about invariant probability measures. It is shown that there exists an invariant p...

Let $R$ be a ring, $sigma$ be an endomorphism of $R$ and $M_R$ be a $sigma$-rigid module. A module $M_R$ is called quasi-Baer if the right annihilator of a principal submodule of $R$ is generated by an idempotent. It is shown that an $R$-module $M_R$ is a quasi-Baer module if and only if $M[[x]]$ is a quasi-Baer module over the skew power series ring $R[[x,sigma]]$.

BACKGROUND Age and rate of acoustic stimulation affect peak latencies in brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAER) in humans. Those effects are unknown in foals. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES Our goals were to (1) establish reference values for BAER in foals by using 3 different stimulation protocols, (2) evaluate the effects of age and stimulation frequencies on BAER tracing in foals up to 6 months...
