A matrix of combinatorial numbers related to the symmetric groups
1979
For permutation groups G of finite degree we define numbers t"B(G)=|G|^-^[email protected]?"R"@?"[email protected]?"1(1a"1(g))^b^"^i, where B=(b"1,...,b"1) is a tuple of non-negative integers and a"1(g) denotes the number of i cycles in the element g. We show that t"B(G) is the number of orbits of G, acting on a set @D"B(G) of tuples of matrices. In the case G=S"n we get a natural interpretation for combinatorial numbers connected with the Stiring numbers of the second kind.
Retrobulbäre Bestrahlung bei endokriner Orbitopathie - Erfahrungen im Langzeitverlauf
2002
Background Significance of retrobulbar irradiation in patients suffering form Graves' ophthalmopathy, though established since almost one century, is subject of scientific debate. The present study investigated the effect of retrobulbar irradiation using a standardized protocol focussing on long term results. Patients and methods Between 1981 and 1997, 104 patients treated by retrobulbar irradiation (10 to 20 Gray) due to Graves' disease. Twenty-nine of these underwent irradiation as sole treatment (mean follow-up 57 months), while in the remaining 75, it was combined with a systemic steroid treatment (mean follow-up 40 months). Patients were evaluated regarding proptosis, intraocular press…
