Periodic Orbits in Periodic Discrete Dynamics
(Elsevier, 2008)
We study the combinatorial structure of periodic orbits of nonautonomous difference equations 𝒳ₙ₊₁ = 𝒇ₙ(𝒳ₙ) in a periodically fluctuating environment. We define the Ӷ-set to be the set of minimal periods that are not ...
On Morpho-Syntactic Levantisms in Maltese
(Institut de recherches et d’études sur les mondes arabes et musulmans (IREMAM), 2019)
Maltese is usually classified as a North African Arabic variety. Yet some researchers have remarked “some curious similarities with the Eastern dialects”. Investigations of these tend to concentrate upon the phonology and ...
The Discrete Beverton-Holt Model with Periodic Harvesting in a Periodically Fluctuating Environment
(Springer, 2010)
We investigate the effect of constant and periodic harvesting on the Beverton-Holt model in a periodically fluctuating environment. We show that in a periodically fluctuating environment, periodic harvesting gives a better ...
Anti-bacterial self-assembled nanotubes of cyclic d, l-alpha-peptides
(AIP Publishing, 2007)
Cyclic D, L‐α‐peptides can be designed to spontaneously partition into lipid and cell membranes where they self‐assemble into membrane‐permeating nanotubes and result in disruption of membrane potentials leading to rapid ...
Ramsey numbers of partial order graphs (comparability graphs) and implications in ring theory
(De Gruyter, 2020)
For a partially ordered set(A, ≤), letGA be the simple, undirected graph with vertex set A such that two vertices a ≠ ∈ b A are adjacent if either a ≤ b or b a ≤ . We call GA the partial order graph or comparability graph ...
Weighted multimodal family of distributions with sine and cosine weight functions
(Cell Press, 2020)
In this paper, the moment of various types of sine and cosine functions are derived for any random variable. For an arbitrary even probability density function, the sine and cosine moments are used to define new families ...
Drug Discovery against Acanthamoeba Infections: Present Knowledge and Unmet Needs
(MDPI, 2020)
Although major strides have been made in developing and testing various anti-acanthamoebic drugs, recurrent infections, inadequate treatment outcomes, health complications, and side effects associated with the use of ...
Compound distributions for financial returns
(PLOS, 2020)
In this paper, we propose six Student’s t based compound distributions where the scale parameter is randomized using functional forms of the half normal, Fréchet, Lomax, Burr III, inverse gamma and generalized gamma ...
Dynamic properties of language anxiety
(Adam Mickiewicz University, 2020)
This article begins by examining previous empirical studies to demonstrate that language anxiety, or the negative emotional reaction learners experience when using a second language (MacIntyre & Gardner, 1999), is a dynamic ...
Sesamum indicum (sesame) enhances NK anti-cancer activity, modulates Th1/Th2 balance, and suppresses macrophage inflammatory response
(Medknow, 2020)
To evaluate the potential immunomodulatory effects of an aqueous extract of Sesamum indicum seeds with regard to splenocyte proliferation, Th1/Th2 balance, macrophage function, and the cytotoxic activity of natural killer ...
