This article envisions a new customer support solution that merges the efficiency of crowd-based Question and Answer (QA) sites with the effectiveness of traditional customer care services. QA sites use crowdsourcing to solve problems in a very efficient w ...
We examine how, in prime characteristic p, the group of endotrivial modules of a finite group G and the group of endotrivial modules of a quotient of G modulo a normal subgroup of order prime to p are related. There is always an inflation map, but examples ...
An open problem in polarization theory is to determine the binary operations that always lead to polarization (in the general multilevel sense) when they are used in Arikan style constructions. This paper, which is presented in two parts, solves this probl ...

This study presents a method for estimating the average vertical displacement of energy pile groups subjected to thermal loads. The method consists of replacing any regular energy pile group with a single equivalent pier of the same length and an equivalen ...

For a group G generated by k elements, the Nielsen equivalence classes are defined as orbits of the action of AutF(k), the automorphism group of the free group of rank k, on the set of generating k-tuples of G. Let p >= 3 be prime and G(p) the Gupta-Sidki ...
The behaviour of conventional pile groups (e.g., closely spaced) that are subjected to mechanical loads has been shown to be different than the behaviour of single isolated piles. The so-called group effects are responsible for this behaviour and must be c ...
In this short note we prove that the reduced group C-*-algebra of a locally compact group admits a non-zero trace if and only if the amenable radical of the group is open. This completely answers a question raised by Forrest, Spronk and Wiersma. ...
A sample of contracts of apprenticeship from three periods in the history of early modern Venice is analysed, as recorded in the archive of the Giustizia Vecchia, a venetian magistracy. The periods are the end of the 16th century, the 1620s and the 1650s. ...
We consider the initial value problem for the inviscid Primitive and Boussinesq equations in three spatial dimensions. We recast both systems as an abstract Euler-type system and apply the methods of convex integration of De Lellis and Sz,kelyhidi to show ...
