In this paper, we introduce and study  a mapping from the collection of all  intermediate rings of $C(X)$ to the collection of all  realcompactifications of $X$ contained in $beta X$. By establishing the relations between this mapping and its converse,  we give a different approach to the main statements of De et. al. Using these, we provide different answers to the   four basic questions...

The present study investigated the effects of selected presentation techniques including the keyword method, the peg word method, the loci method, argument mapping, concept mapping and mind mapping on L2 vocabulary comprehension and production. To this end, a sample of 151 Iranian female students from a public pre-university school in Islam Shahr was selected. They were assigned to six groups. ...

This study has examined the effect of semantic mapping on learning vocabulary across genders. The researchers selected 120 intermediate students after the administration of a standard proficiency test. A vocabulary test was also used to measure the students’ vocabulary knowledge. The experimental group received semantic mapping in the pre-reading stage, butthe control group did not receive this...

We discuss about the generalized $F$-contraction mappings in partially ordered metric spaces. For this, we first introduce the notion of ordered weakly $F$-contraction mapping. We also present some fixed point results about this type of mapping in partially ordered metric spaces. Next, we introduce the notion of $acute{mathrm{C}}$iri$acute{mathrm{c}}$ type generalized ordered weakly $F$-contrac...

Introdouction: The mapping of ghost images of the maxilla and the nasal cavity, which are complex structures, is very important. The position of objects that create a ghost image can differ when using various devices. The purpose of this investigation was to study the mapping of ghost images of the maxilla and the nasal cavity using a Cranex D digital panoramic machine. Materials and methods: ...

in this paper, the notion of $psi -$weak contraction cite{rhoades} isextended to fuzzy metric spaces. the existence of common fixed points fortwo mappings is established where one mapping is $psi -$weak contractionwith respect to another mapping on a fuzzy metric space. our resultgeneralizes a result of gregori and sapena cite{gregori}.
