Veränderung des Schmeckvermögens bei Patienten mit Vestibularisschwannom
2014
Das Vestiularisschwannom ist ein gutartiger Tumor. Klinisch wird die Erkrankung durch die Kardinalsymptome einseitige Hörminderung, Tinnitus und Gleichgewichtsstörungen auffällig. Auf Grund der anatomischen Enge im Bereich des inneren Gehörganges kann es auch zu Affektionen des N.[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
Inverse eigenvalue problem for normal J-hamiltonian matrices
2015
[EN] A complex square matrix A is called J-hamiltonian if AT is hermitian where J is a normal real matrix such that J(2) = -I-n. In this paper we solve the problem of finding J-hamiltonian normal solutions for the inverse eigenvalue problem. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Elementary presentation of self‐consistent intermediate Hamiltonians and proposal of two totally dressed singles and doubles configuration interactio…
1994
Intermediate Hamiltonians are effective Hamiltonians which are defined on an N‐dimensional model space but which only provide n<N exact eigenvalues and the projections of the corresponding eigenvectors onto the model space. For a single root research, the intermediate Hamiltonian may be obtained from the restriction of the Hamiltonian to the model space by an appropriate, uniquely defined dressing of the diagonal energies or of the first column. Approximate self‐consistent dressings may be proposed. The simplest perturbative form gives the same result as the original 2nd order intermediate Hamiltonian or the ‘‘shifted Bk’’ technique but it is of easier implementation. Self‐consistent inclus…
A chain of solvable non-Hermitian Hamiltonians constructed by a series of metric operators
2021
We show how, given a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian $H$, we can generate new non-Hermitian operators sequentially, producing a virtually infinite chain of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians which are isospectral to $H$ and $H^\dagger$ and whose eigenvectors we can easily deduce in an almost automatic way; no ingredients are necessary other than $H$ and its eigensystem. To set off the chain and keep it running, we use, for the first time in our knowledge, a series of maps all connected to different metric operators. We show how the procedure works in several physically relevant systems. In particular, we apply our method to various versions of the Hatano-Nelson model and to some PT-symmetric Hamiltonians.
Diagnostic and prognostic values of B-type natriuretic peptides (BNP) and N-terminal fragment brain natriuretic peptides (NT-pro-BNP).
2012
Abstract B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a member of a four-natriuretic peptide family that shares a common 17-peptide ring structure. The N-terminal fragment (NT-pro-BNP) is biologically inert, but both are secreted in the plasma in equimolar quantities and both have been evaluated for use in the management of congestive heart failure. BNP and NT-pro-BNP are frequently used in the diagnosis of congestive heart failure and distinguishing between patients with dyspnoea of cardiac or pulmonary origin. Values of NT-pro-BNP are affected by age or the presence of one or several co-morbidities such as chronic renal failure, type 2 diabetes, and acute coronary syndrome. ‘Normal’ values of thes…
Full modal analysis of confocal coaxial elliptical waveguides
2000
An efficient method for analysing confocal coaxial elliptical waveguides is presented. Using elliptical coordinates, the differential Helmholtz equation is transformed into a linear matrix eigenvalue problem by means of the method of moments. The expressions of the vector mode functions for the full spectrum of these guides are constructed, including the TEM, TM and TE modes. The convergence of the method is very good, giving an efficient and accurate code. Comparisons with numerical results found in the technical literature validate the presented theory.
Extension of the line element-less method to dynamic problems
2020
The line element-less method is an efficient approach for the approximate solution of the Laplace or biharmonic equation on a general bidimensional domain. Introducing generalized harmonic polynomials as approximation functions, we extend the line element-less method to the inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation and to the eigenvalue problem for the Helmholtz equation. The obtained approximate solutions are critically discussed and advantages as well as limitations of the approach are pointed out.
Monotonicity and local uniqueness for the Helmholtz equation
2017
This work extends monotonicity-based methods in inverse problems to the case of the Helmholtz (or stationary Schr\"odinger) equation $(\Delta + k^2 q) u = 0$ in a bounded domain for fixed non-resonance frequency $k>0$ and real-valued scattering coefficient function $q$. We show a monotonicity relation between the scattering coefficient $q$ and the local Neumann-Dirichlet operator that holds up to finitely many eigenvalues. Combining this with the method of localized potentials, or Runge approximation, adapted to the case where finitely many constraints are present, we derive a constructive monotonicity-based characterization of scatterers from partial boundary data. We also obtain the local…
Expression of the 60 kDa heat shock protein in normal and inflamed liver.
1993
The 60 kDa heat shock proteins (HSP 60) have been well conserved throughout evolution and are highly immunogenic. Cross-reactivity between bacterial and mammalian HSP 60 is considered a likely mechanism in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. T cell and B cell reactivity to HSP 60 is found in patients with rheumatoid or juvenile arthritis, and the expression of HSP 60 in the inflamed joint is found to be increased. In this study the presence of HSP 60 was demonstrated in normal and inflamed lives. HSP 60 was found to be predominantly expressed in hepatocytes and Kupffer cells, and mainly localized in mitochondria. Heat stress in the form of a 1 h incubation at 42 degrees C increased HSP…
The equality case in a Poincaré–Wirtinger type inequality
2016
It is known that, for any convex planar set W, the first non-trivial Neumann eigenvalue μ1 (Ω) of the Hermite operator is greater than or equal to 1. Under the additional assumption that Ω is contained in a strip, we show that β1 (Ω) = 1 if and only if Ω is any strip. The study of the equality case requires, among other things, an asymptotic analysis of the eigenvalues of the Hermite operator in thin domains.
