    We show that, as in the linear case, the normalized Haar measure on a compact topological group GG is a Pietsch measure for nonlinear summing mappings on closed translation invariant subspaces of C(G)C(G). This answers a question posed to the authors by J. Diestel. We also show that our result applies to several well-studied classes of nonlinear summing mappings. In the final section some problems are proposed

    Two-Dimensional Bosonization from Variable Shifts in the Path Integral

    A method to perform bosonization of a fermionic theory in (1+1) dimensions in a path integral framework is developed. The method relies exclusively on the path integral property of allowing variable shifts, and does not depend on the explicit form of Greens functions. Two examples, the Schwinger model and the massless Thirring model, are worked out.Comment: 4 page

    PEGylated cationic liposome - DNA nanoparticle assembly in cell culture media: pathway effects and clues to enhanced control and transfection efficiency optimization

    XII Spanish-Portuguese Conference on Controlled Drug DeliveryCationic Liposome – DNA nanoparticles constitute a promising approach for safe and efficient delivery of genes for therapeutic applications. In order to be used in vivo, these particles can be coated with an inert and hydrophilic polymer, such as polyethylene-glycol (PEG), which improves blood circulation time by providing steric stabilization against removal by the immune system. In this work we study the influence of the initial salt concentration, which controls the electrostatic atraction between cationic liposomes and anionic DNA, on the structure of PEGylated CL–DNA nanoparticles.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Estimates of compensation and stability parameters in common bean lines aiming at multilines.

    This study aimed to determine parameter estimates of compensation of common bean lines and verify if the stability of a mixture of lines is higher than of the line components. Six common bean lines were evaluated, pairwise, in equal proportions. The experiments were conducted in 11 environments, where the trait seed yield was evaluated (grams per plot). The positive ci estimate (compensation ability of line i) of cultivar Talismã was highest, indicating the line for mixtures. The combination of the pair Carioca and MA-II-16, with the highest positive sij estimate (specific compensation ability for the pair of lines i and j), was satisfactory. It was observed that the mean contribution of mixtures to the interaction was in the mean lower than of lines in monoculture. The stability was highest in the mixture Talismã and MA-II-8 and the risk of adoption lowest. The estimates of these compensation and stability parameters in mixtures underlying additional information are a support in the choice of lines to compose a multiline
