Growth and Approximation of Laplace-Stieltjes Transform with p,q-Proximate Order Converges on the Whole Plane by Yong Qin Cui, Hong Yan Xu

“…Besides, the second purpose of this paper is to investigate the approximation of entire functions defined by Laplace-Stieltjes transforms with p,q-proximate order, and some results about the p,q-proximate order, the error, and the coefficients of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms are obtained, which are generalization and improvement of the previous theorems given by Luo and Kong, Singhal, and Srivastava.…”

Les fossiles de Cro-Magnon (Les Eyzies-de-Tayac, Dordogne) by Dominique Henry-Gambier

“…The Cro-Magnon skeletal remains discovered en 1868 near les Eyzies–de-Tayac (Dordogne) are generally attributed to the Aurignacian culture, and are dated to 30000 BP through comparison with the 14C date of the Aurignacian levels of the Pataud rock shelter (Dordogne).An AMS 14C date (27680 ≠ 270 BP, Beta –157439) of a Littorina shell associated with these human remains demonstrates that they postdate 28000 BP, indicating that the Cro-Magnon burials should not be interpretated as early Aurignacian. …”

The Interplay between Linear Representations of the Braid Group by Mohammad N. Abdulrahim, Nibal H. Kassem

“…We prove that the composition factors of the obtained representation are one copy of Burau representation and m−1 copies of the standard representation after changing the parameter t to tk in the definitions of the Burau and standard representations. This is a generalization of our previous result concerning the standard Artin representation of the braid group.…”
