In this paper, we introduce the concept of $g$-dual frames for Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules, and then the properties and stability results of $g$-dual frames  are given.  A characterization of $g$-dual frames, approximately dual frames and dual frames of a given frame is established. We also give some examples to show that the characterization of $g$-dual frames for Riesz bases in Hilbert spaces is ...

The ability to inhibit the processing of irrelevant information declines as adults age (Hasher & Zacks, 1988; Lustig, Hasher and Tonev, 2006; Mayr, 2001). However, previous research investigating inhibitory control in older adults has not evaluated the extent to which irrelevant information is processed and later recognized. Using a dual task paradigm with young adults, Dewald, Sinnett, and Dou...

We analyze the conformal limit of the matrix model describing flux backgrounds of two dimensional type 0A string theory. This limit is believed to be dual to an AdS2 background of type 0A string theory. We show that the spectrum of this limit is identical to that of a free fermion on AdS2, suggesting that there are no closed string excitations in this background.

In light of the dramatic growth of Chinese learners worldwide and a need for cross-linguistic research on Chinese literacy development, this study drew upon theories of visual complexity effect (Su and Samuels, 2010) and dual-coding processing (Sadoski and Paivio, 2013) and investigated (a) the effects of character properties (i.e., visual complexity and radical presence) on character acquisiti...

he purpose of this study is to demonstrate how we, especially children and adolescents, are influenced by the media; this issue had investigated by analyzing the representation of gender roles in the Game of Thrones Series. There were based on three social learning, socialization and cultivation theories. This research had done a quantitative content analysis. The variables included 20 gender a...

this study is based on this question, that if it would be required to write a screen play about islamic and shi'ah infallible leaders (imams), then what would be the suitable model for this. the classic model, in this regard often based on the aristotle model, is not enough and ideal to present the infallible islamic characters. this is because it is forbidden to show the face of the islam...

we introduce the notions of t-dual rickart and strongly t-dual rickart modules. we provide several characterizations and investigate properties of each of these concepts. it is shown that every free (resp. finitely generated free) $r$-module is t-dual rickart if and only if $overline{z}^2(r)$ is a  direct summand of $r$ and end$(overline{z}^2(r))$ is a semisimple (resp. regular) ring. it is sho...

in a novel dual bed reactor fischer-tropsch synthesis was studied by using two diffrent cobalt catalysts. an alkali-promoted cobalt catalyst was used in the first bed of a fixed-bed reactor followed by a rutenuim promoted cobalt catalyst in the second bed. the activity, product selectivity and accelerated deactivation of the system were assessed and compared with a conventional single bed react...
