Rankin-Cohen Type Differential Operators for Siegel Modular Forms
Let H_n be the Siegel upper half space and let F and G be automorphic forms on H_n of weights k and l, respectively. We give explicit examples of differential operators D acting on functions on H_n x H_n such that the restriction of D(F(Z_1) G(Z_2)) to Z

Health Effects of Indoor-Air Benzene in Anchorage Residences: A Study of Indoor-Air Quality in Houses with Attached Garages [PDF]
Benzene is a known carcinogen. It affects white blood cells; it causes leukemia and aplastic anemia. It may also affect the immune system which is dependent on white blood cells.1 It has been removed from all household products, but it is still ...

Semi-Supervised Sound Source Localization Based on Manifold Regularization
Conventional speaker localization algorithms, based merely on the received microphone signals, are often sensitive to adverse conditions, such as: high reverberation or low signal to noise ratio (SNR). In some scenarios, e.g. in meeting rooms or cars, it

A risk classification of registered pesticides in Brazil was conducted, and the contribution of food to cumulative pesticide exposure was evaluated. Model diets were proposed, based on Brazilian consumption patterns. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide residue exposure assessments can be carried out during both the pre‐regulation and post‐regulation phases ...

Multivariate Tests for Comparing Lifetimes of Parallel Systems
ABSTRACT Life testing of engineering systems with dependent components requires robust multivariate methods. Parametric approaches depend on restrictive assumptions, limiting their use in complex or unknown lifetime distribution settings. This study evaluates nonparametric methods for comparing parallel system lifetimes under minimal sample ...

ABSTRACT Exposure to mono(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes characterized by extravillous trophoblast (EVT) abnormal function. Previous reports have suggested that MEHP can activate the PI3K/AKT pathway in EVT cells, a pathway known to regulate inflammation and angiogenesis in ...
