Pseudo-hoops are algebraic structures introduced in [1, 2] by B. Bosbach under the name of complementary semigroups. This is a formalization of the paper [4]. Following [4] we prove some properties of pseudo-hoops and we define the basic concepts of filter and normal filter. The lattice of normal filters is isomorphic with the lattice of congruences of a pseudo-hoop. We also study some importan...

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of n-fold obstinate pseudo-hoop and n-fold obstinate filter in pseudo-hoops. Then we investigated these notions and proved some properties of them. Also, we discussed the relationship between n-fold obstinate pseudo-hoop and n-fold obstinate filter and other types of n-fold pseudo-hoops and n-fold filters such as n-fold (positive) implicative filter and ...

A hoop is a naturally ordered pocrim (i.e., a partially ordered com-mutative residuated integral monoid). We list some basic properties of hoops, describe in detail the structure of subdirectly irreducible hoops, and establish that the class of hoops, which is a variety, is generated, as a quasivariety, by its nite members.

DOES HEALTH HOOPS KENTUCKY IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF CHILDREN WITH ASTHMA? Yu-Ting Chen, M.P.H. November 12,2010 Asthma is the most common chronic disease among children aged 7 to 17 years of age in the United States. An average, one of every ten school-aged children has asthma, and 13 million school days are missed each year due to asthma. Interventions to prevent or reduce the severity of asthma ...

T hink philosophically for a moment: As sports medicine clinicians, what is our most important function? Some might say diagnosing illnesses. That's a hard one to argue, especially when it comes to cardiac conditions and the risk of sudden death. Others might focus on rehabilitation and training—no doubt major components of what we do. Many of us focus on injury prevention: keeping athletes on ...

Pseudo-BCK algebras were introduced by G. Georgescu and A. Iorgulescu as a generalization of BCK algebras in order to give a corresponding structure to pseudo-MV algebras, since the bounded commutative BCK algebras corresponde to MV algebras. Properties of pseudo-BCK algebras and their connections with other fuzzy structures were established by A. Iorgulescu and J. Kühr. The aim of this paper i...

We describe booST and hooPS, two applications targeted toward the youth demographic. These mobile, social applications are designed with the goals of promoting health and wellbeing by engendering and strengthening social relationships among youth. What makes booST and hooPS stand out is that they exhibit sensitivity to their user’s emotional state and support the user in exchanging that state w...
