The Sharpness Of Some Cluster Set Results, D. Rung, Samih Obaid Jan 1987

The Sharpness Of Some Cluster Set Results, D. Rung, Samih Obaid

Faculty Publications

We show that a recent cluster set theorem of Rung is sharp in a certain sense. This is accomplished through the construction of an interpolating sequence whose limit set is closed, totally disconnected and porous. The results also generalize some of Dolzenko's cluster set theorems.

Liquid Crystals From Poly(4,4'-Methoxybiphenylyl Methacrylate)., R. Duran, D. Guillon, Ph Gramain, A. Skoulios Jan 1987

Liquid Crystals From Poly(4,4'-Methoxybiphenylyl Methacrylate)., R. Duran, D. Guillon, Ph Gramain, A. Skoulios

Faculty Publications

Side-chain liquid crystalline poly(4,4'-biphenylyl methacrylate) was studied by x-ray diffraction. Three smectic phases were described using a ribbon-like structural model for the polymer chain. In the smectic S//P phase, ribbons lie flat on their sides to form layers with a spacing equal to the thickness of the ribbons. In the smectic S//A phase, the ribbons stand upright giving layers with a thickness corresponding to the length of one extended monomeric unit. In the ordered smectic S//O phase, the layer thickness also corresponds to one extended repeat unit, and the pendant groups are arranged according to a two-dimensional oblique lattice. The …

Effect Of Seasonal Changes In Leydig Cell Number On The Volume Of Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum In Leydig Cells And Intratesticular Testosterone Content In Stallions, L. Johnson, D. L. Thompson Jan 1987

Effect Of Seasonal Changes In Leydig Cell Number On The Volume Of Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum In Leydig Cells And Intratesticular Testosterone Content In Stallions, L. Johnson, D. L. Thompson

Faculty Publications

Testes from 47 adult (4-20 years) stallions obtained in November-January (non-breeding season) and 41 adult stallions obtained in May-July (breeding season) were perfused with glutaraldehyde, placed in osmium and embedded in Epon 812. Percentage Leydig cell cytoplasm or nuclei in the testis was determined by point counting of 0.5 μm sections under bright-field microscopy. Testes from 6 randomly selected horses per season were processed for electron microscopy. The volume (ml) of SER/testis was calculated from the % SER in the cytoplasm % Leydig cell cytoplasm, and parenchymal volume. Number of Leydig cells was calculated from the % nuclei, parenchymal volume, …

The Scope Of Liability Under Section 12 Of The Federal Securities Act Of 1933: 'Participation' And The Pertinent Legislative Materials, Douglas E. Abrams Jan 1987

The Scope Of Liability Under Section 12 Of The Federal Securities Act Of 1933: 'Participation' And The Pertinent Legislative Materials, Douglas E. Abrams

Faculty Publications

Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933 creates two private rights of action, each providing in relevant part that ‘ a ny person who offers or sells a security . . . shall be liable to the person purchasing such security from him . . ..’ Because suit may be maintained only by the person who purchases the security from defendant, an offeror may incur section 12 liability only if the offeror also ‘sells' the security to the plaintiff. Section 12(1) imposes liability on any seller whose offer or sale violates the Act's registration or prospectus requirements found in …

Protein‐Structural Heterogeneity In A Non‐Allosteric Monomeric Insect Hemoglobin Monitored By Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, David H. Peyton, R. Krishnamoorthi, Gerd N. La Mar, Klaus Gersonde, Kevin M. Smith, Daniel W. Parish Jan 1987

Protein‐Structural Heterogeneity In A Non‐Allosteric Monomeric Insect Hemoglobin Monitored By Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, David H. Peyton, R. Krishnamoorthi, Gerd N. La Mar, Klaus Gersonde, Kevin M. Smith, Daniel W. Parish

Faculty Publications

Proton NMR has revealed two modes of structural heterogeneity in the monomeric hemoglobin I of Chironomus thummi thummi, CTT I; rotational disorder caused by a 180° rotation of the heme about the α, γ‐meso axis (primary heterogeneity), which varies for each preparation or reconstitution of this hemogobin, and a ‘silent’ amino acid replacement [Thr/Ala exchange in position 98(FG4)] in the vicinity of the heme group, which is invariant under all experimental conditions. The heme rotational disorder (primary heterogeneity) can be removed by reconstitution of CTT I with the symmetrical protoheme III. The secondary splitting is not affected; the ratio of …

Mechanism Of Attachment Of Swarm Cells Of Thiothrix Nivea., J. M. Larkin, R. Nelson Jan 1987

Mechanism Of Attachment Of Swarm Cells Of Thiothrix Nivea., J. M. Larkin, R. Nelson

Faculty Publications

Swarm cells of Thiothrix nivea were found to possess a group of fimbriae at one pole. The other pole either was bare or possessed from one to three fimbriae. By using this polarity as a marker, it was found that the initial step in attachment of swarm cells involves the fimbriated pole and that this initial step is followed by the production of holdfast material.

On Weakly Symmetric Graphs Of Order Twice A Prime, Ying Cheng, James Oxley Jan 1987

On Weakly Symmetric Graphs Of Order Twice A Prime, Ying Cheng, James Oxley

Faculty Publications

A graph is weakly symmetric if its automorphism group is both vertex-transitive and edge-transitive. In 1971, Chao characterized all weakly symmetric graphs of prime order and showed that such graphs are also transitive on directed edges. In this paper we determine all weakly symmetric graphs of order twice a prime and show that these graphs too are directed-edge transitive. © 1987.

A Characterization Of The Ternary Matroids With No M(K4)-Minor, James G. Oxley Jan 1987

A Characterization Of The Ternary Matroids With No M(K4)-Minor, James G. Oxley

Faculty Publications

Brylawski identified the class of binary matroids with no minor isomorphic to M(K4) as being the class of series-parallel networks. From this he deduced that, for all such matroids M, the critical exponent c(M; 2) is at most 2. He also conjectured that a similar result is true over all finite fields GF(q). This paper examines the classes of ternary and GF(4)-representable matroids with no M(K4)-minor. The main result characterizes the former class by showing that, with one exception, the only non-trivial 3-connected members of this class are whirls or minors of the Steiner system S(5, 6, 12). This characterization …

Some Results In Discontinuous Fields And Wave Propogation, R. Estrada, R. P. Kanwal Jan 1987

Some Results In Discontinuous Fields And Wave Propogation, R. Estrada, R. P. Kanwal

Faculty Publications

We present various applications of recently developed techniques which are an interplay between the differential geometry and the theory of distributions. We apply them to the microlocal theory, derive the general order transport equations for the strength of wave fronts, obtain the values of the jumps of the general Nth-order derivatives of the harmonic functions across the potential layers, and present the explicit formulas for an arbitrary order derivative of functions of the radial distance r. © 1987.

Continuous Pythagoras Numbers For Rational Quadratic Forms, Charles N. Delzell Jan 1987

Continuous Pythagoras Numbers For Rational Quadratic Forms, Charles N. Delzell

Faculty Publications

We introduce the concept of the continuous Pythagoras number Pc(S) of a subset S of a commutative topological ring to be, roughly, the least number m ≤ ∞ such that the set of sums of squares of elements of S can be represented as sums of m squares of elements of S, by means of m continuous functions. Heilbronn had already shown that Pc(Q) = 4. Letting Ln(F) be the set of linear n-ary forms over the field F, we show that Pc(Ln(R)) = n. We then allow continuously varying nonnegative rational "weights" on the m square summands. If these …

Use Of Linear Semen Quality Score For Classification And Decision Making In Evaluation Of Individual Ejaculates Of Holstein Bulls, J. E. Chandler, R. W. Adkinson, J. W. Smith, A. M. Saxton Jan 1987

Use Of Linear Semen Quality Score For Classification And Decision Making In Evaluation Of Individual Ejaculates Of Holstein Bulls, J. E. Chandler, R. W. Adkinson, J. W. Smith, A. M. Saxton

Faculty Publications

Four hundred seven ejaculates from 15 Holstein bulls collected from December 1984 to June 1985 were evaluated postthaw for viability characteristics (percent progressive motility at 0 h and after 3 h at 37°C incubation, percent intact acrosomal membrane after 3 h at 37°C incubation) and abnormal morphological characteristics [percent head (primary), midpiece, and tail (secondary) abnormalities]. Weighting coefficients for combining viability and abnormality characteristics were generated from between-bull and within-bull variance and covariance matrices. Two hundred ninety-eight additional ejaculates collected from July 1985 to February 1986 were added. Linear quality scores for 705 ejaculates (24 bulls) were the sum of …

Isostatic Compensation And Conduit Structures Of Western Pacific Seamounts: Results Of Three-Dimensional Gravity Modeling, James N. Kellogg, Bruce S. Wedgeworth, Jeffrey T. Freymueller Jan 1987

Isostatic Compensation And Conduit Structures Of Western Pacific Seamounts: Results Of Three-Dimensional Gravity Modeling, James N. Kellogg, Bruce S. Wedgeworth, Jeffrey T. Freymueller

Faculty Publications

Detailed three-dimensional polygonal prism models of two large western Pacific seamounts show that the 135 mgal difference in the observed sea surface gravity over the two can be best explained by similar mean densities (2.6 gjcm3) and crustal thickening under one seamount (Airy isostatic compensation). Observed calculated residuals are further reduced by including dense (2.9 gjcm3) vertical feeder pipes or volcanic conduits in the models. Dense conduits or fracture zones 5 to 17 km in diameter are located under many, if not all, craters on volcanic islands and seamounts. Results from the detailed seamount studies can be generalized using exact …

A Few Still Later Words On Translating Homer, Or C. S. Calverley And The Victorian Parodic, Patrick G. Scott Jan 1987

A Few Still Later Words On Translating Homer, Or C. S. Calverley And The Victorian Parodic, Patrick G. Scott

Faculty Publications

Argues (largely in the style of Matthew Arnold) that the Victorian verse parodist C.S. Calverley can best be understood through 19th century ideas of verse translation, and especially through the writing on parody of the Scottish lawyer Alexander Fraser Tytler, Lord Woodhouselee, in his Essay on the Principles of Translation (1792).

Regulation Of Government Agencies Through Limitation Riders, Neal Devins Jan 1987

Regulation Of Government Agencies Through Limitation Riders, Neal Devins

Faculty Publications

Congress often attaches limitation riders to appropriations bills to establish its policy directives. Professor Devins argues that the appropriations process is not the proper vehicle for substantive policymaking. In this article, he analyzes institutional characteristics that prevent the full consideration or articulation of policy in appropriations bills. Professor Devins also considers the extent to which Congress's use of limitation riders inhibits the effectiveness of the other branches of the federal government. Professor Devins concludes that, while Congress's use of limitation riders is sometimes necessary, Congress should be aware of the significant risks associated with policymaking through the appropriations process.
