Fixed Points of Closed and Compact Composite Sequences of Operators and Projectors in a Class of Banach Spaces
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013)
Some results on fixed points related to the contractive compositions of bounded operators in a class of complete metric spaces which can be also considered as Banach's spaces are discussed through the paper. The class of ...
Stability of Switched Feedback Time-Varying Dynamic Systems Based on the Properties of the Gap Metric for Operators
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
The stabilization of dynamic switched control systems is focused on and based on an operator-based formulation. It is assumed that the controlled object and the controller are described by sequences of closed operator pairs ...
About the Stabilization of a Nonlinear Perturbed Difference Equation
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
This paper investigates the local asymptotic stabilization of a very general class of instable autonomous nonlinear difference equations which are subject to perturbed dynamics which can have a different order than that ...
Quantifying lip-read-induced suppression and facilitation of the auditory N1 and P2 reveals peak enhancements and delays
(Psychophysiology, 2016)
Lip-read speech suppresses and speeds up the auditory N1 and P2 peaks, but these effects are not always observed or reported. Here, the robustness of lip-read-induced N1/P2 suppression and facilitation in phonetically ...
Is VIRTU4L Larger Than VIR7UAL? Automatic Processing of Number Quantity and Lexical Representations in Leet Words
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016)
Recent research has shown that leet words (i.e., words in which some of the letters are replaced by visually similar digits; e.g., VIRTU4L) can be processed as their base words without much cost. However, it remains unclear ...
A reflection on the future of the quality management paradigm in the EU
(Escuela Universitaria de Estudios Empresariales, 2011)
In recent years, the Quality Management Paradigm has successfully taken root in the European Union’s business environment. Quality management besides being a multivariate issue including matters from management and economics ...
Unlike Physical Exercise, Modified Environment Increases the Lifespan of SOD1(G93A) Mice However Both Conditions Induce Cellular Changes
(Public Library of Science, 2012-09-20)
Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by a gradual muscular paralysis resulting from progressive motoneurons death. ALS etiology remains unknown although it has been demonstrated to be a ...
Squaring the circle. Social and environmental implications of pre-pottery neolithic building technology at Tell Qarassa (South Syria)
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2012-07-27)
We present the results of the microstratigraphic, phytolith and wood charcoal study of the remains of a 10.5 ka roof. The roof is part of a building excavated at Tell Qarassa (South Syria), assigned to the Pre-Pottery ...
Wide Screening of Phage-Displayed Libraries Identifies Immune Targets in Planta
(PLoS ONE, 2013)
Microbe-Associated Molecular Patterns and virulence effectors are recognized by plants as a first step to mount a defence response against potential pathogens. This recognition involves a large family of extracellular ...
GFAP Isoforms in Adult Mouse Brain with a Focus on Neurogenic Astrocytes and Reactive Astrogliosis in Mouse Models of Alzheimer Disease
(Public Library of Science, 2012-08-13)
Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the main astrocytic intermediate filament (IF). GFAP splice isoforms show differential expression patterns in the human brain. GFAPδ is preferentially expressed by neurogenic ...
