    Collars and partitions of hyperbolic cone-surfaces

    Full text link
    For compact Riemann surfaces, the collar theorem and Bers' partition theorem are major tools for working with simple closed geodesics. The main goal of this paper is to prove similar theorems for hyperbolic cone-surfaces. Hyperbolic two-dimensional orbifolds are a particular case of such surfaces. We consider all cone angles to be strictly less than π\pi to be able to consider partitions.Comment: 11 pages, 9 figures; v2: minor changes, to appear in Geometriae Dedicat

    Local positivity, multiplier ideals, and syzygies of abelian varieties

    Full text link
    We use the language of multiplier ideals in order to relate the syzygies of an abelian variety in a suitable embedding with the local positivity of the line bundle inducing that embedding. This extends to higher syzygies a result of Hwang and To on projective normality.Comment: 10 page

    STUDY DESIGN: A multicenter retrospective case series was compiled involving 21 medical institutions. Inclusion criteria included patients who underwent cervical spine surgery between 2005 and 2011 and who sustained a vertebral artery injury (VAI). OBJECTIVE: To report the frequency, risk factors, outcomes, and management goals of VAI in patients who have undergone cervical spine surgery. METHODS: Patients were evaluated on the basis of condition-specific functional status using the Neck Disability Index (NDI), modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) score, the Nurick scale, and the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). RESULTS: VAIs were identified in a total of 14 of 16 582 patients screened (8.4 per 10 000). The mean age of patients with VAI was 59 years (±10) with a female predominance (78.6%). Patient diagnoses included myelopathy, radiculopathy, cervical instability, and metastatic disease. VAI was associated with substantial blood loss (770 mL), although only 3 cases required transfusion. Of the 14 cases, 7 occurred with an anterior-only approach, 3 cases with posterior-only approach, and 4 during circumferential approach. Fifty percent of cases of VAI with available preoperative imaging revealed anomalous vessel anatomy during postoperative review. Average length of hospital stay was 10 days (±8). Notably, 13 of the 14 (92.86%) cases resolved without residual deficits. Compared to preoperative baseline NDI, Nurick, mJOA, and SF-36 scores for these patients, there were no observed changes after surgery (P = .20-.94). CONCLUSIONS: Vertebral artery injuries are potentially catastrophic complications that can be sustained from anterior or posterior cervical spine approaches. The data from this study suggest that with proper steps to ensure hemostasis, patients recover function at a high rate and do not exhibit residual deficits

    Zika virus infection (Zika) during pregnancy can cause damage to the brain, microcephaly, and congenital Zika syndrome, a pattern of conditions in the baby that includes brain abnormalities, eye defects, hearing loss, and limb defects. Pregnant women can protect their babies from these Zika-related health conditions by not traveling to areas with Zika.

    Andriastuti, D1207507, BERITA KRIMINAL DI TELEVISI DAN KESENJANGAN KEPUASAN (Studi Deskriptif Kesenjangan Kepuasan Menonton Berita Kriminal Sergap (RCTI) dan Buser (SCTV) di Kalangan Mahasiswa Fakultas Hukum Universitas Sebelas Maret). Ilmu Komunikasi Progran Non Reguler Fakultas Ilmu Sosial dan Ilmu Politik Universitas Sebelas Maret Surakarta, 2009. The development of mass media industry has been progressing in latest years. There is no doubt about the advantage of television among the others media. Television stations compete to give the best for their audiance. That's also influented by many of audiance's need. The crime news program being one of media response to fill their audiences needs. Sergap in RCTI and Buser in SCTV are two crime news program that audience loved. This research use ”Uses and Gratifications” theory and intend to discover the Discrepancy between Gratification Sought (GS) and Gratification Obtained (GO) of audiences experience after using the media Sergap (RCTI) and Buser (SCTV). This research is a descriptive kuantitative research that is using survey methode which the primary data obtained by distribute questioners to the respondents. The population in this research is students of Fakultas Hukum Universitas Sebelas Maret year 2005 until 2007. Based on the data, from six need in GS and GO, proved that there is gratification Discrepancy towards Sergap (RCTI) and Buser (SCTV). From the calculation of hole discrepancy, Sergap (RCTI) has discrepancy as much as 57.96% and ability to give satisfaction as much as 42.04%. Whereas Buser (SCTV) has discrepancy as much as 56.82% and ability to give satisfaction as much as 43.18. The number of ability in giving satisfaction from both media shows that ther is no differences in ability in giving satisfaction between them
