In this paper we define Baer BL-algebras as BL-algebras with the property that co-annihilator filters are generated by central elements. We use sheaf-theoretic techniques to construct a Baer extension of any BLalgebra, that is to embed any nontrivial BL-algebra A into a Baer BLalgebra A∗. The embedding turns to be an isomorphism if A is itself a Baer BL-algebra. 2000 MSC: 08A72, 03G25, 54B40, 0...

OBJECTIVE To determine the initial Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response (BAER) abnormalities in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia and the possible reversibility of abnormal BAER after therapy. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Tertiary care hospital. SUBJECTS 30 term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia (S. bilirubin < 15 mg/dl) as cases and 25 normal term neonates as controls. METHODS ...

There is a well-known equivalence between the homotopy types of connected CW-spaces X with πnX=0 for n 6= 1, 2 and the quasi-isomorphism classes of crossed modules ∂ : M → P [16]. When the homotopy groups π1X and π2X are finite one can represent the homotopy type of X by a crossed module in which M and P are finite groups. We define the order of such a crossed module to be |∂| = |M | × |P |, an...

Best known for his contributions to the field of embryology [6], Karl Ernst von Baer [5] also pursued a variety of other areas of study including medicine, botany, zoology, and anthropology. Committing his life to scientific research, von Baer?s work led to the advancement of the understanding of mammalian reproduction, development, and organ functioning. His embryological discoveries ultimatel...

Let $alpha$ be an endomorphism and $delta$ an $alpha$-derivationof a ring $R$.  In this paper we  study the relationship between an$R$-module $M_R$ and the  general polynomial module  $M[x]$ over theskew polynomial ring $R[x;alpha,delta]$. We introduce the notionsof skew-Armendariz modules and skew quasi-Armendariz modules whichare generalizations of $alpha$-Armendariz modules and extend thecla...

A module M is called epi-retractable if every submodule of M is a homomorphic image of M. Dually, a module M is called co-epi-retractable if it contains a copy of each of its factor modules. In special case, a ring R is called co-pli (resp. co-pri) if RR (resp. RR) is co-epi-retractable. It is proved that if R is a left principal right duo ring, then every left ideal of R is an epi-retractable ...

The notions of quasi-prime submodules and developed  Zariski topology was introduced by the present authors in cite{ah10}. In this paper we use these notions to define a scheme. For an $R$-module $M$, let $X:={Qin qSpec(M) mid (Q:_R M)inSpec(R)}$. It is proved that $(X, mathcal{O}_X)$ is a locally ringed space. We study the morphism of locally ringed spaces induced by $R$-homomorphism $Mrightar...
