  • Weak and Norm Approximate Identities Are Different
    Pacific Journal of Mathematics WEAK AND NORM APPROXIMATE IDENTITIES ARE DIFFERENT CHARLES ALLEN JONES AND CHARLES DWIGHT LAHR Vol. 72, No. 1 January 1977 PACIFIC JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS Vol. 72, No. 1, 1977 WEAK AND NORM APPROXIMATE IDENTITIES ARE DIFFERENT CHARLES A. JONES AND CHARLES D. LAHR An example is given of a convolution measure algebra which has a bounded weak approximate identity, but no norm approximate identity. 1* Introduction* Let A be a commutative Banach algebra, Ar the dual space of A, and ΔA the maximal ideal space of A. A weak approximate identity for A is a net {e(X):\eΛ} in A such that χ(e(λ)α) > χ(α) for all αei, χ e A A. A norm approximate identity for A is a net {e(λ):λeΛ} in A such that ||β(λ)α-α|| >0 for all aeA. A net {e(X):\eΛ} in A is bounded and of norm M if there exists a positive number M such that ||e(λ)|| ^ M for all XeΛ. It is well known that if A has a bounded weak approximate identity for which /(e(λ)α) —>/(α) for all feA' and αeA, then A has a bounded norm approximate identity [1, Proposition 4, page 58]. However, the situation is different if weak convergence is with re- spect to ΔA and not A'. An example is given in § 2 of a Banach algebra A which has a weak approximate identity, but does not have a norm approximate identity. This algebra provides a coun- terexample to a theorem of J.

  • Expression of the Short Stature Homeobox Gene Shox Is Restricted by Proximal and Distal Signals in Chick Limb Buds and Affects the Length of Skeletal Elements
    Developmental Biology 298 (2006) 585–596 www.elsevier.com/locate/ydbio Expression of the short stature homeobox gene Shox is restricted by proximal and distal signals in chick limb buds and affects the length of skeletal elements Eva Tiecke a, Fiona Bangs a, Rudiger Blaschke b, Elizabeth R. Farrell a, ⁎ Gudrun Rappold b, Cheryll Tickle a, a Division of Cell and Developmental Biology, School of Life Sciences, University of Dundee, Dow Street, Dundee, DD1 5EH, UK b Department of Human Molecular Genetics, University of Heidelberg, Im Neuenheimer Feld 366, D-69120 Heidelberg, Germany Received for publication 6 June 2006; accepted 10 July 2006 Available online 12 July 2006 Abstract SHOX is a homeobox-containing gene, highly conserved among species as diverse as fish, chicken and humans. SHOX gene mutations have been shown to cause idiopathic short stature and skeletal malformations frequently observed in human patients with Turner, Leri–Weill and Langer syndromes. We cloned the chicken orthologue of SHOX, studied its expression pattern and compared this with expression of the highly related Shox2. Shox is expressed in central regions of early chick limb buds and proximal two thirds of later limbs, whereas Shox2 is expressed more posteriorly in the proximal third of the limb bud. Shox expression is inhibited distally by signals from the apical ectodermal ridge, both Fgfs and Bmps, and proximally by retinoic acid signaling. We tested Shox functions by overexpression in embryos and micromass cultures. Shox- infected chick limbs had normal proximo-distal patterning but the length of skeletal elements was consistently increased. Primary chick limb bud cell cultures infected with Shox showed an initial increase in cartilage nodules but these did not enlarge.

  • Principles of Development Lewis Wolpert
    Principles of development lewis wolpert Continue The process of biological development is an amazing feat of tightly regulated cellular behavior - differentiation, movement and growth - powerful enough to lead to the appearance of a very complex living organism from a single cell, a fertilized egg. The principles of development clearly illustrate the universal principles governing this development process in a concise and accessible style. Written by two respected and influential development biologists, Lewis Volpert and Sheryl Tickle, it focuses on the systems that best illuminate the general principles covered by the text and avoids suppressing the reader with encyclopedic details. With co-authors whose experience spans discipline, The Principles of Development combines the careful study of the subject with ideas from some of the world's pioneers of research in development biology, guiding the student from the basics to the latest discoveries in the field. The Internet Resource Center Internet Resource Center to accompany the Principles of Development features For registered adopters of text: Electronic works of art: Figures from the book are available for download, for use in lectures. Journal Club: Proposed scientific papers and discussion related to the topics presented in the book direct the process of learning from the scientific literature.

Vaes Abstract We give several applications of a recent theorem of the second author, which solved a conjecture of the first author with Hay and Neal, concerning contractive approximate identities; and another of Hay from the theory of noncommutative peak sets, thereby putting the latter theory on a much firmer foundation. From this theorem it emerges there is a surprising amount of positivity present in any operator algebras with contractive approximate identity. We exploit this to generalize several results previously available only for ∗ C -algebras, and we give many other applications. © 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Keywords: Operator algebras; One-sided ideals; Hereditary subalgebra; Approximate identity; Peak set; Pseudo-invertible elements; Completely positive operator 1. Introduction An operator algebra is a closed subalgebra of B(H), for a Hilbert space H . We recall that by a theorem due to Ralf Meyer, every operator algebra A has a unique unitization A1 (see [30] or [10, Section 2.1]). Below 1 always refers to the identity of A1 if A has no identity.

Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.

However, it remains unclear how to endow the parameters of the network with a prior distribution that is meaningful when lifted into the output space of the network. A possible solution is proposed that enables the user to posit an appropriate Gaussian process covariance function for the task at hand. Our approach constructs a prior distribution for the parameters of the network, called a ridgelet prior, that approximates the posited Gaussian process in the output space of the network. In contrast to existing work on the connection between neural networks and Gaussian processes, our analysis is non-asymptotic, with finite sample-size error bounds provided. This establishes the universality property that a Bayesian neural network can approximate any Gaussian process whose covariance function is sufficiently regular. Our experimental assessment is limited to a proof-of-concept, where we demonstrate that the ridgelet prior can out-perform an unstructured prior on regression problems for which a suitable Gaussian process prior can be provided.
