Given a graph G = (V;E), a subset S V is 2-dominating if every vertex in S has at least two neighbors in S. The minimum cardinality of such a set is called the 2-domination number of G. Consider a process in discrete ...

The citrus seedling development is determined by several factors, including the physical and chemical qualities of the substrate, which affect the quality of field seedlings. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how ...

1. The most effective way to manage nonindigenous species and their impacts is to prevent their introduction via vector regulation. While ships' ballast water is very well studied and this vector is actively managed, hull ...

In this article, we develop a strategy to simultaneously extract a yield curve and price call options embedded in debentures subject to credit risk. The implementation is based on a combination of two methods: term structure ...

This paper describes an experimental investigation into the vibration control of multiple electrical machines installed on a large-scale floating raft system. Vibration transmission to a flexible hull-like structure that ...

Castor (Ricinus communis L.) is an oilseed crop well adapted for growing at semi-arid region for its rusticity and resistance to water deficit. It is usually planted by seeds, but planting by seedling can become attractive ...
