Subspace hypercyclicity
A bounded linear operator T on Hilbert space is subspace-hypercyclic for a
subspace M if there exists a vector whose orbit under T intersects the subspace
in a relatively dense set. We construct examples to show that
subspace-hypercyclicity is interesting, including a nontrivial
subspace-hypercyclic operator that is not hypercyclic. There is a Kitai-like
criterion that implies subspace-hypercyclicity and although the spectrum of a
subspace-hypercyclic operator must intersect the unit circle, not every
component of the spectrum will do so. We show that, like hypercyclicity,
subspace-hypercyclicity is a strictly infinite-dimensional phenomenon.
Additionally, compact or hyponormal operators can never be
subspace-hypercyclic.Comment: 15 page
Chaotic differential operators
We give sufficient conditions for chaos of (differential) operators on Hilbert spaces of entire functions. To this aim we establish conditions on the coefficients of a polynomial P(z) such that P(B) is chaotic on the space lp, where B is the backward shift operator. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.This work was partially supported by the MEC and FEDER Projects MTM2007-64222, MTM2010-14909, and by GVA Project GV/2010/091, and by UPV Project PAID-06-09-2932.

Heterogeneous pipelined square-root Kalman Filter algorithm for the MMSE-OSIC problem
The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11227-009-0354-x[EN] This paper describes a pipelined parallel algorithm for the MMSE-OSIC decoding procedure proposed in V-BLAST wireless MIMO systems, for heterogeneous networks of processors. It is based on a block version of the square-root Kalman Filter algorithm that was initially devised to solve the RLS problem. It has been parallelized in a pipelined way obtaining a good efficiency and scalability. The optimum load balancing for this parallel algorithm is dynamic, but we derive a static load balancing scheme with good performance. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.This work has been supported by the Generalitat Valenciana, project 20080811, by the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, project 20080009, by the Conserjería de Educacion de la Región de Murcia (Fundacion Séneca, 08763/PI/08), and by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion (TIN2008-06570-C04-02).Martínez Zaldívar, FJ.; Vidal Maciá, AM.; Giménez Cánovas, D.

Efectos de una unidad didáctica de mimo basada en el modelo de Educación Deportiva sobre la interculturalidad
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of a Sport Education unit on elementary school students’ intercultural competence. The program involved the participation of 28 fifth-grade students (M = 10.75; DT = .75) from a state school in Region of Murcia, Spain.A quasi-experimental design, pretest and posttest (of quantitative and qualitative nature) measures, was used. The data included students’ questionnaires and interviews, andteachers’ interviews and diary notes. Results indicated that students improved on positive emotional responses, as well as providing help and having better relations with their peers from different cultures/countries. The incidence of methodological elements, communication and the social climate of the classroom on the development of intercultural competence is also discussed. Lines of future research are suggested in order to improve the model for the development of intercultural competence.El propósito de este estudio fue conocer el impacto generado por una unidad didáctica de mimo basada en el Modelo de Educación Deportiva (MED) sobre la competencia intercultural del alumnado de primaria.

Influence of ocular biometric factors on the defocus curve in an enlarged depth-of-focus intraocular lens
Background: To assess the influence of biometric measurements on the defocus curve after the implantation of enlarged depth-of-focus (EDoF) intraocular lens (IOL). Methods: Patients who underwent cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of Tecnis Symfony IOL were enrolled. Preoperatively, axial length (AL), corneal keratometry (K), pupil size and corneal aberrations were measured. 1 month after surgery, distance, intermediate, and near visual acuities (VA) were recorded. At 3 months, monocular and binocular corrected contrast sensitivities under photopic and mesopic lighting conditions were measured with CSV-1000E test. At 6-months, the defocus curve between −5.00 to + 3.00 diopters (D) was assessed in steps of 0.50 D, and NEI-RQL-42 questionnaire was administered. Results: One hundred thirty one eyes of 66 patients were included. Binocular logMAR VA better than 0.1 for intermediate vision was obtained in 90% of patients, whereas only 17.7% obtained that result in near vision. The rate of satisfaction was high (96%) and most of them (85.5%) had no or little difficulties in near vision. The mean amplitude of the defocus curve was 2.35D ± 0.73D, and smaller AL, smaller pupils, younger age, and male sex were associated with wider range of clear vision. Conclusions: Tecnis Symfony IOL enables functional vision at all distances, but demographic variables and preoperative biometric measurements like AL and pupil size influence the postoperative amplitude of the defocus curve. These parameters could be used to predict the performance of EDoF IOLs
Distributional chaos for operators with full scrambled sets
In this article we answer in the negative the question of whether hypercyclicity is sufficient for distributional chaos for a continuous linear operator (we even prove that the mixing property does not suffice). Moreover, we show that an extremal situation is possible: There are (hypercyclic and non-hypercyclic) operators such that the whole space consists, except zero, of distributionally irregular vectors.The research of first and third author was supported by MEC and FEDER, project MTM2010-14909 and by GV, Project PROMETEO/2008/101.

RepA-WH1 prionoid: Clues from bacteria on factors governing phase transitions in amyloidogenesis
10 p.-1 fig.In bacterial plasmids, Rep proteins initiate DNA replication by undergoing a structural
transformation coupled to dimer dissociation. Amyloidogenesis of the ‘winged-helix’ N-terminal domain of RepA (WH1) is triggered in vitro upon binding to plasmid-specific DNA sequences, and occurs at the bacterial nucleoid in vivo. Amyloid fibers are made of distorted RepA-WH1 monomers that assemble as single or double intertwined tubular protofilaments. RepA-WH1 causes in E. coli an amyloid proteinopathy, which is transmissible from mother to daughter cells, but not infectious, and enables conformational imprinting in vitro and in vivo; i.e. RepA-WH1 is a ‘prionoid’. Microfluidics
allow the assessment of the intracellular dynamics of RepA-WH1: bacterial lineages maintain two types (strains-like) of RepA-WH1 amyloids, either multiple compact cytotoxic particles or a single aggregate with the appearance of a fluidized hydrogel that it is mildly detrimental to growth. The Hsp70 chaperone DnaK governs the phase transition between both types of RepA-WH1 aggregates in vivo, thus modulating the vertical propagation of the prionoid. Engineering chimeras between the Sup35p/[PSI*] prion and RepA-WH1 generates [REP-PSI*], a synthetic prion exhibiting strong and
weak phenotypic variants in yeast. These recent findings on a synthetic, self-contained bacterial prionoid illuminate central issues of protein amyloidogenesis.Research on RepA-WH1 amyloids at CIBCSIC is currently financed by Spanish MINECO grants BIO2012-30852 and CSD2009-00088.Peer reviewe
El modelo de Educación Deportiva y la orientación. Efectos en la satisfacción con la vida, las inteligencias múltiples, las necesidades psicológicas básicas y las percepciones sobre el modelo de los adolescentes
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of a Sport Education (SE) model-based teaching unit through orienteering on grade 9 (14-17 years) students’ life satisfaction, multiple intelligences, basic psychological needs and curricular model perceptions.81 students (Mage = 14.62; SD = .80) allocated in three intact groups from a high-school in Region of Murcia (Spain), took part in this unit. Based on a quasi-experimental design (pretest-posttest measures), data were collected from interviews (teacher perspective) and both quantitative and qualitative questionnaires (student perspective). Significant improvements were obtained on the development of the three main SE goals (competency, literacy and enthusiasm), whereas no significant changes were found on life satisfaction and multiple intelligences. Findings confirmed orienteering as a suitable content to be taught according through the pedagogical principles of SE model.Likewise, results showed its benefits on the development of the objectives this pursues.Se examinaron los efectos de una unidad didáctica de orientación deportiva (OD) basada en el modelo de Educación Deportiva (ED) sobre la satisfacción con la vida, las inteligencias múltiples, las necesidades psicológicas básicas y las percepciones del modelo en estudiantesde tercer curso de educación secundaria. La muestra estuvo comprendida por 81 estudiantes (M de edad = 14.62; DT = .80) distribuidos en tres grupos naturales, pertenecientes a un instituto ubicado en la Región de Murcia (España). A partir de un diseño cuasi-experimental (medidas pretest-postest), se recabaron datos mediante entrevistas (percepción docente), cuestionarios cuantitativos y cualitativos (percepción discente). Se obtuvieronmejoras significativas en el desarrollo de los tres objetivos que persigue el modelo (competencia, cultura deportiva y entusiasmo), al tiempo queno se revelaron cambios significativos en la satisfacción con la vida y en las inteligencias múltiples. Los resultados constatan a la OD como contenido apto para ser abordado mediante los principios del modelo de ED y respaldansu eficaciarespecto a los objetivos que este últimopersigue
Variabilidad radiológica de la artroplastia de cadera, según la dominancia del cirujano
El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la relación entre la dominancia de los cirujanos ortopédicos y el correcto posicionamiento del componente acetabular en las artroplastias totales de cadera. Secundariamente, se analiza la posible relación entre esta dominancia del cirujano y la lateralidad del procedimiento quirúrgico a realizar ya sean caderas derechas o izquierdas. Para ello, se crearon 2 grupos. El grupo A correspondiente a 20 caderas intervenidas por un cirujano de dominancia diestra y el grupo B formado por 20 intervenciones realizadas por otro cirujano de dominancia zurda Las mediciones se realizaron sobre la proyección radiográfica AP de pelvis del control postquirúrgico usando el visor de rayos del hospital. Para la valoración de la anteversión se utilizó el método descrito por Widmer. Con este trabajo hemos demostrado una mayor dificultad para la correcta implantación del cotilo por parte de nuestro cirujano zurdo en el caso de intervenir caderas izquierdas
