The Relationship Between Physical Growth And Infant Behavioral Development In Rural Guatemala, Robert E. Lasky, Robert E. Klein, Charles Yarbrough, Patrice L. Engle, Aaron Lechtig, Reynaldo Martorell

Psychology and Child Development

The present study investigated the relationship between a number of anthropometric indices and behavioral development during the first 2 years of life in rural Guatemala. Length and weight were the indices most strongly correlated with behavioral development. If the effect of the infant's length and weight was statistically controlled for, none of the other anthropometric variables explained a significant proportion of the variance in behavioral development. Con- trolling for length (or weight) assessed at the same age as the behavioral assessment, length (or weight) for younger ages was not significantly correlated with behavioral development. Changes in length or weight over …

The (Q, R)-Simon Newcomb Problem, Don Rawlings

Mathematics

A new statistic, the r-major index, is defined for sequences. A linear recurrence is then derived that enumerates sequences by r-descent number and r-major index.

Asymptotic Functions And The Problem Of Multiplication Of Distributions, Todor D. Todorov

Mathematics

The asymptotic functions are a new type of generalized functions. But they are not functionals on some space of test-functions as the Schwartz distributions. They are mappings of the set of the asymptotic numbers (1, 3, 5, 6) into itself. On its part, the set of the asymptotic numbers is a totally-ordered set of generalized numbers including the systems of real and complex numbers, as well as infinitesimals and infinitely large numbers. Every two asymptotic functions can be multiplied. On the other hand, the Schwartz distributions have realizations, in a certain sense, as asymptotic functions. The motivations of this work …

Generalized Worpitzky Identities With Applications To Permutation Enumeration, Don Rawlings

Mathematics

The enumeration of permutations by inversions often leads to a q -analog of the usual generating function. In this paper, two generalizations of the Worpitzky identity for the Eulerian numbers are obtained and used to enumerate permutations by the descent number and the major index of their inverses. The resulting (t, q)-generating series do in fact generalize the q-series obtained when counting by inversions.

The R-Major Index, Don Rawlings

Mathematics

The r-major index is a new permutation statistic that is suggested by the work of Carlitz and Gausner on Foulkes' skew hook rule for computing the r-Eulerian numbers. The new statistic (1) generalizes both the major index and the inversion number of a permutation and (2) leads to a q-analog of the r-Eulerian numbers.

Quasi-Extended Asymptotic Functions, Todor D. Todorov

Mathematics

The class F of "quasi-extended asymptotic functions" introduced in the present paper contains all extended asymptotic functions [8, (3.1)] (in particular, all examples constructed in [9, Sec. 1 ]). But F contains also some new asymptotic functions very similar to tht Schwartz distributions. On the other hand, every two quasi-extended asymptotic functions can be multiplied as opposed to the Schwartz distributions; in particular, the square &# 948;² of an asymptotic function &# 948; similar to Dirac's delta-function is constructed as an example. The connection with the asymptotic functions introduced in [2] and [4] is established.

Mossbauer Spectroscopy Of Iron-Containing Dermal Granules From Molpadia Intermedia, S. Ofer, G. C. Papaefthymiou, R. B. Frankel, H. A. Lowenstam

Physics

Dermal granules containing hydrous ferric oxide cores from Molpadia intermedia were studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy from 1.5 t0 300 K and in magnetic fields up to 80 kOersted at 4.2 K. A magnetic phase transition to an antiferromagnetically ordered state is observed at 10 K. The results are compared with the magnetic behavior of micellar cores of ferritin from eukaryotes and iron-storage materials from prokaryotes.

Decision Processes With Total-Cost Criteria, Theodore P. Hill, Steven Demko

Research Scholars in Residence

By a decision process is meant a pair (X,Γ), where X is an arbitrary set (the state space), and Γ associates to each point x in X an arbitrary nonempty collection of discrete probability measures (actions) on X. In a decision process with nonnegative costs depending on the current state, the action taken, and the following state, there is always available a Markov strategy which uniformly (nearly) minimizes the expected total cost. If the costs are strictly positive and depend only on the current state, there is even a stationary strategy with the same property. In a …

Study Of Iron In Magnetotactic Bacteria, Richard B. Frankel, Richard P. Blakemore

Physics

Bacteria have recently been discovered directing their movements by sensing the earth's magnetic field. They contain arrays of crystals of lodestone or magnetite which they synthesize from iron in the ocean. The discovery of the same type of crystals in the abdomens of honey bees and the brains of homing pigeons suggests that nature is not oblivious to the earth's magnetic field. The biological mechanism for sensing magnetic fields has never been determined. These bacteria are capable of biologically synthesizing highly purified single domain magnets that would be very expensive to produce chemically.

The tiny perfect magnetite crystals made by …
