On A Differential Sequence In Geometry, E. Ortaçgi̇l

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We construct an exact differential sequence which indicates certain relations between curvature, local flatness, torsion and simplicity of higher order connections. Our formulas are expressed explicity in terms of the Christoffel symbols of dual \varepsilon-connections.

On Spaces Of Generalized Dirichlet Series, M. Dragilev

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

It is considered the relationship between spaces L_f(\lambda,\sigma) and subspaces of the space A_1(\bar{A}_1) of analytic functions in the open (closed) unit disc, generated by systems F(\alpha_nz), n\in N, if they constitute a basis in their closure.

Lion-Tailed Macaques (Macaca Silenus) In A Disturbed Forest Fragment: Activity Patterns And Time Budget, Shaily Menon, Frank Poirier

Shaily Menon

We describe the activity patterns and time budget of a feral group of lion-tailed macaques that were confined to a disturbed forest fragment of 65 ha and compare the results with those obtained for groups in protected forests. The degraded nature of the study site was reflected in low tree densities, low specific diversity, gaps in the girth distribution of trees, and frequent disturbance by humans. The study group of 43 subjects was twice as large as lion-tailed macaque groups in protected habitats. They spent the most time ranging (34.0%), followed by foraging (23.7%), feeding (17.9%), resting (16.0%), and other …

Understanding Alpha Decay, Br Holstein

Barry R Holstein

The subject of alpha decay is an important part of a course in modern physics, as it provides a clear experimental manifestation of the phenomenon of barrier penetration. The traditional approach, based on Gamow's complex eigenvalue method, raises a number of questions which can be answered by employing the older but less well-known procedure of summing over scattering states. Additional insights are gained by examination of the alpha decay system via more contemporary path integral based techniques.

In-Situ Imaging Of Ionic Crystal Dissolution Using An Integrated Electrochemical/Afm Probe, Julie V. Macpherson, Patrick R. Unwin, Andrew C. Hillier, Allen J. Bard

Andrew C. Hillier

The kinetics and mechanism controlling dissolution from the (100) cleavage face of potassium bromide single crystals in acetonitrile solutions have been identified using a novel integrated electrochemical/AFM probe and a scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM). With both techniques, dissolution is induced by perturbing the dynamic dissolution/growth equilibrium at the crystal/solution interface through the electrochemical oxidation of bromide ions. SECM measurements demonstrate that the dissolution reaction is diffusion-limited under the experimental conditions, suggesting that the surface reaction is characterized by a rate constant in excess of 5 cm s-1 (assuming a first-order dissolution process). The topography of the dissolving surface has been …

Testing For Absolute Purchaing Power Parity, Douglas G. Steigerwald, Collin Crownover, John Pippenger

Douglas G. Steigerwald

Purchasing power parity (PPP) is an equilibrium condition equating the nominal exchange rate between two countries with the relative price of an identical bundle of goods in each country. Previous time-series researchers use price indicies to study PPP, so they study relative PPP. We use new data that measures price levels, so we test absolute PPP. Price levels provide a test of absolute PPP because, unlike price indicies, do not contain a base period in which the nominal exchange rate equals the price ratio by construction. We find support for absolute PPP.

Measurement Of Double-Layer Forces At The Electrode/Electrolyte Interface Using The Atomic Force Microscope: Potential And Anion Dependent Interactions, Andrew C. Hillier, Sunghyun Kim, Allen J. Bard

Andrew C. Hillier

The forces between a silica probe and silica and gold substrates were measured with an atomic force microscope in the presence of a series of alkali-halide electrolyte solutions. The interaction between two silica surfaces was repulsive and could be accurately predicted by Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory. The silica surface was negatively charged at a pH of 5.5 and the effective surface potential increased in magnitude with decreasing electrolyte concentration. In contrast, the force between the silica probe and a gold substrate was attractive at open circuit. This interaction was a strong function of the potential applied to the gold and the nature …

A Control Basis For Multilegged Walking, Manfred Huber, Willard S. Macdonald, Roderic Grupen

Roderic Grupen

This paper presents a distributed control approach to legged locomotion that constructs behavior on-line by activating combinations of reusable feedback control laws drawn from a control basis. Sequences of such controller activations result in flexible aperiodic step sequences based on local sensory information. Different tasks are achieved by varying the composition functions over the same basis controllers, rather than by geometric planning of leg placements or the design of new task-specific behaviors. In addition, the device-independent nature of the control basis allows its generalization not only over task domains, but also over different hardware platforms. To show the applicability of …

An Augmented Galerkin Algorithms For First Kind Integral Equations Of Hammerstein Type, S. Abbasbandy, E. Babolian

Saeid Abbasbandy

Recent papers, [1],[2] & [3], describe some algorithms for linear first kind integral equations. These algorithms are based on augmented Galerkin method and Cross-validation scheme [5]. The results show that, these algorithms work well for linear equations. In this paper we apply algorithms of [1] & [2] on non-linear first kind integral equations of Hammerstein type with bounded solution. In order to obtain a posteriori error estimate, we apply fifteen-point Gauss-Kronrod quadrature rule [4]. Finally, we give a number of numerical examples showing that the algorithms work well in practice.

Purchasing Power Parity, Unit Roots And Dynamic Structure, Douglas G. Steigerwald

Douglas G. Steigerwald

Recent studies of puchasing power parity (PPP) account for the possible presence of unit roots in nominal exchange rates and relative price indicies by applying standard unit-root tests to real exchange rates, which are ratios of nominal exchange rates and relative price indicies. These studies occasionally find evidence of PPP but, as a whole, the evidence is not definitive. Standard unit-root tests impose a restrictive dynamic structure between nominal exchange rates and relative price indicies. I specify and estimate a generalized dynamic structure. I reject the dynamic restrictions implicit in standard unit-root tests of PPP, and find stronger evidence of …
