The Bruce–Roberts Number of A Function on A Hypersurface with Isolated Singularity

2020

AbstractLet $(X,0)$ be an isolated hypersurface singularity defined by $\phi \colon ({\mathbb{C}}^n,0)\to ({\mathbb{C}},0)$ and $f\colon ({\mathbb{C}}^n,0)\to{\mathbb{C}}$ such that the Bruce–Roberts number $\mu _{BR}(f,X)$ is finite. We first prove that $\mu _{BR}(f,X)=\mu (f)+\mu (\phi ,f)+\mu (X,0)-\tau (X,0)$, where $\mu $ and $\tau $ are the Milnor and Tjurina numbers respectively of a function or an isolated complete intersection singularity. Second, we show that the logarithmic characteristic variety $LC(X,0)$ is Cohen–Macaulay. Both theorems generalize the results of a previous paper by some of the authors, in which the hypersurface $(X,0)$ was assumed to be weighted homogeneous.

Ideal-valued topological structures

2010

With L a complete lattice and M a continuous lattice, this paper demonstrates an adjunction between M -valued L-topological spaces (i.e. (L,M )-topological spaces) and Idl(M )-valued L-topological spaces where Idl(M ) is the complete lattice of all ideals of M . It is shown that the right adjoint functor provides a procedure of generating (L,M )-topologies from antitone families of (L,M )-topologies. This procedure is then applied to give an internal characterization of joins in the complete lattice of all (L,M )-topologies on a given set.

A Hybrid Agent Model, Mixing Short Term and Long Term Memory Abilities

1999

We present in this paper a novel approach for the modeling of agents able to react and reason under highly dynamic environments. A hybrid agent architecture is described, which allows to integrate the capacity to react rapidly to instantaneous changes in the environment with the capacity to reason more thoroughly about perceptions and actions. These capacities are implemented as independent processes running concurrently, and exploiting different memorizing abilities. Only a short-term memory is made available to reactive agents, whilst long-term memorizing abilities together with the possibility to reason about incomplete information is provided to cognitive agents. This model is currently…

Evolución histórica de la autonomía de la voluntad en el Derecho matrimonial

2021

The autonomy of the will or power of self-regulation of relationships derived from marriage is a subject that is on the rise and that we can qualify as novel. More and more couples are opting to proceed making use of this power to self-regulate both personal and property effects derived from their union or its future breakdown. In the Spanish legal system there is no precise and complete regulation of the subject, without all these figures being equally legislated, although all are admitted without any doubt by jurisprudence. In recent years there has been an evolution of Family law, traditionally very reluctant to give space to self-regulation. Our Constitution marks a turning point by cha…

Complete basis set B3LYP NMR calculations of CDCl3solvent's water fine spectral details

2008

The assignment of singlet at 1.55 ppm and the 1:1:1 triplet at 1.519 ppm to H2O and HOD in the 400 MHz 1H NMR spectrum of CDCl3 solvent were supported by complete basis set (CBS) GIAO-B3LYP calculated chemical shift and the CBS B3LYP estimated 2J(D,H) spin–spin coupling constant (SSCC). The CBS fitting of B3LYP/cc-pCVxZ and B3LYP/pcJ-n predicted SSCC values, the accurate value of 2J(D,H) = − 1.082 ± 0.030 Hz of HOD in chloroform-d1 and the H/D isotopic shift of 0.0307(1) ppm were reported for the first time. The agreement between CBS B3LYP predicted chemical shift, spin–spin values and experiment was good. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Comparison between MRI and pathology in the assessment of tumour regression grade in rectal cancer

2017

Background: Limited data exist regarding the correlation between MRI tumour regression grade (mrTRG) and pathological TRG (pTRG) in rectal cancer. Methods: mrTRG and pTRG were compared in rectal cancer patients from two phase II trials (EXPERT and EXPERT-C). The agreement between radiologist and pathologist was assessed with the weighted κ test while the Kaplan–Meier method was used to estimate survival outcomes. Results: One hundred ninety-one patients were included. Median time from completion of neoadjuvant treatment to pre-operative MRI and surgery was 4.1 weeks (interquartile range (IQR): 3.7–4.7) and 6.6 weeks (IQR: 5.9–7.6), respectively. Fair agreement was found between mrTRG and pT…

Late neointimal tissue growth behind the stent after intravascular gamma-radiation.

2003

To determine the nature of the changes of the vascular wall after intravascular brachytherapy in stented arteries leading to incomplete stent apposition.Stents were implanted in the infrarenal aortas of rabbits, and gamma-intravascular brachytherapy (18 Gy) or a sham radiation procedure was immediately implemented. The arteries were harvested at 6 months for histologic analyses.The external elastic lamina area, as well as the vascular wall area behind the stent, were significantly greater in irradiated vs. control arteries (8.94 +/- 0.68 mm2 vs. 6.87 +/- 0.40 mm2 [p0.001] and 1.56 +/- 0.13 mm2 vs. 0.72 +/- 0.07 mm2 [p0.001], respectively). The ratio of the intimal area behind the stent rela…

Evaluating the incidence of pathological complete response in current international rectal cancer practice: the barriers to widespread safe deferral …

2018

INTRODUCTION: The mainstay of management for locally advanced rectal cancer is chemoradiotherapy followed by surgical resection. Following chemoradiotherapy, a complete response may be detected clinically and radiologically (cCR) prior to surgery or pathologically after surgery (pCR). We aim to report the overall complete pathological response (pCR) rate and the reliability of detecting a cCR by conventional pre-operative imaging.METHODS: A pre-planned analysis of the European Society of Coloproctology (ESCP) 2017 audit was performed. Patients treated by elective rectal resection were included. A pCR was defined as a ypT0 N0 EMVI negative primary tumour; a partial response represented any r…
