SLC20A1 Is Involved in Urinary Tract and Urorectal Development
2020
Previous studies in developing Xenopus and zebrafish reported that the phosphate transporter slc20a1a is expressed in pronephric kidneys. The recent identification of SLC20A1 as a monoallelic candidate gene for cloacal exstrophy further suggests its involvement in the urinary tract and urorectal development. However, little is known of the functional role of SLC20A1 in urinary tract development. Here, we investigated this using morpholino oligonucleotide knockdown of the zebrafish ortholog slc20a1a. This caused kidney cysts and malformations of the cloaca. Moreover, in morphants we demonstrated dysfunctional voiding and hindgut opening defects mimicking imperforate anus in human cloacal exs…
An Integral Version of Ćirić’s Fixed Point Theorem
2011
We establish a new fixed point theorem for mappings satisfying a general contractive condition of integral type. The presented theorem generalizes the well known Ciric's fixed point theorem [Lj. B. Ciric, Generalized contractions and fixed point theorems, Publ. Inst. Math. 12 (26) (1971) 19-26]. Some examples and applications are given.
Utilization of waste sodium sulfate from battery chemical production in neutral electrolytic pickling
2021
Several industrial activities produce metal sulfates, which are controlled by strict limitations for wastewater concentrations of sulfate. One emerging area where these activities occur is the production of lithium-ion battery chemicals in which sodium sulfates are formed because of cathode precursor co-precipitation. Several solutions for sulfate removal exist, but one option is to reuse the sulfate side stream in other processes to increase circular economy and atom efficiency. In this paper, the reuse of sodium sulfate solution in a steel industry pickling solution is considered. Neutral electrolytic pickling experiments were carried out to compare the pickling behavior of the electrolyt…
In-Operando Lithium-Ion Transport Tracking in an All-Solid-State Battery.
2022
An all-solid-state battery is a secondary battery that is charged and discharged by the transport of lithium ions between positive and negative electrodes. To fully realize the significant benefits of this battery technology, for example, higher energy densities, faster charging times, and safer operation, it is essential to understand how lithium ions are transported and distributed in the battery during operation. However, as the third lightest element, methods for quantitatively analyzing lithium during operation of an all-solid-state device are limited such that real-time tracking of lithium transport has not yet been demonstrated. Here, the authors report that the transport of lithium …
A Note on Locally ??-compact Spaces
1995
: The local version of the concept of ℰτ-compactness (where ℰ is a class of Hausdorff spaces and ℰ is a cardinal) introduced by the first author as a generalization of Her-rlich's concept of ℰ-compactness (and hence, also of Mrowka's E-compactness) is defined and the corresponding theory is initiated. An essential part of the theory is developed under the additional assumption that all spaces from ℰ are absolute extensors for spaces under consideration. The theory contains as a special case the classical theory of local compactness.
A space on which diameter-type packing measure is not Borel regular
1999
We construct a separable metric space on which 1-dimensional diameter-type packing measure is not Borel regular.
Hausdorff measures, Hölder continuous maps and self-similar fractals
1993
Let f: A → ℝn be Hölder continuous with exponent α, 0 < α ≼ 1, where A ⊂ ℝm has finite m-dimensional Lebesgue measure. Then, as is easy to see and well-known, the s-dimensional Hausdorif measure HS(fA) is finite for s = m/α. Many fractal-type sets fA also have positive Hs measure. This is so for example if m = 1 and f is a natural parametrization of the Koch snow flake curve in ℝ2. Then s = log 4/log 3 and α = log 3/log 4. In this paper we study the question of what s-dimensional sets in can intersect some image fA in a set of positive Hs measure where A ⊂ ℝm and f: A → ℝn is (m/s)-Hölder continuous. In Theorem 3·3 we give a general density result for such Holder surfacesfA which implies…
Fixed point theory for almost convex functions
1998
Traditionally, metric fixed point theory has sought classes of spaces in which a given type of mapping (nonexpansive, assymptotically or generalized nonexpansive, uniformly Lipschitz, etc.) from a nonempty weakly compact convex set into itself always has a fixed point. In some situations the class of space is determined by the application while there is some degree of freedom in constructing the map to be used. With this in mind we seek to relax the conditions on the space by considering more restrictive types of mappings.
Coupled fixed point, F-invariant set and fixed point of N-order
2010
In this paper, we establish some new coupled fixed point theorems in complete metric spaces, using a new concept of $F$-invariant set. We introduce the notion of fixed point of $N$-order as natural extension of that of coupled fixed point. As applications, we discuss and adapt the presented results to the setting of partially ordered cone metric spaces. The presented results extend and complement some known existence results from the literature.
A common fixed point theorem for two weakly compatible pairs in G-metric spaces using the property E.A
2013
In view of the fact that the fixed point theory provides an efficient tool in many fields of pure and applied sciences, we use the notion of the property E.A to prove a common fixed point theorem for weakly compatible mappings. The presented results are applied to obtain the solution of an integral equation and the bounded solution of a functional equation arising in dynamic programming.
