There is an extensive literature on the valuation of a fixed income contracts. The present work addresses the problem from a new outlook: we find upper and lower bounds for the value of a contract. Constraints are imposed on the evolution of a short-term interest rate and a liability is valued using its present value. A firstorder non-linear hyperbolic partial differential equation is formulate...

Our work in the last year focused on improving the sorting of semiconducting carbon nanotubes and the enhancement of the conductivity and transparency of carbon based electrodes. The active layer of our carbon solar cell is based on semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes; the highly selective sorting of small diameter carbon nanotube is essential for photovoltaic applications. Ideally, t...

Selection of genotypes based on high value of heritability and forecasted genetic conditions would be an effective method for improvement of wheat cultivars. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the genetic variability of agro-physiological characters using biometrical genetic techniques in 20 bread wheat genotypes under irrigated condition. For this purpose an experiment was c...

The present investigation was planned to assess genetic diversity for yield, yield contributing traits and quality traits in three hundred indigenous germplasm of bread wheat. The germplasm along with 4 checks were evaluated in augmented design at the Crop Research Centre of G.B. Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar during 2008-09. On the basis of dissimilarity coefficient, th...

Seth’s transition theory is applied to the problems of thickness variation parameter in a thin rotating disc by finite deformation. Neither the yield criterion nor the associated flow rule is assumed here. The results obtained here are applicable to compressible materials. If the additional condition of incompressibility is imposed, then the expression for stresses corresponds to those arising ...
