A dedication of the praeses dyscolius from Laodikeia on the Lykos
No full textIn the 2007 excavation campaign of Laodikeia on the Lykos, the archaeological team of the University of Pamukkale found the imprint of an inscription on the ground of the southwest stoa of the so-called Temple A. The text is an elegiac distich which accompained a dedication of a statue of Artemis erected by Dyscolius, a high oicial of the eastern administration of the Roman Empire at the beginning of the Constantinian Era
Topology of soft cone metric spaces
No full textInternational Conference on Functional Analysis in Interdisciplinary Applications (FAIA) -- OCT 02-05, 2017 -- Astana, KAZAKHSTANIn Simsek's paper it was introduced a concept of soft cone metric space via soft elements and some fixed point theorems in soft cone metric space were provided. In this work, we examine topological structures such as open ball, soft neighbourhood and soft open set in soft metric spaces and their some properties, and prove that every soft cone metric space under some condition is a soft topological space according to elementary operations on soft sets.Kyrgyz Turkish Manas University [KTMUBAP-2016.FBE.12]This work is supported by Kyrgyz Turkish Manas University in the framework of Scientific Research Projects (KTMUBAP-2016.FBE.12)

Centrohermitian and Skew-Centrohermitian Solutions to the Minimum Residual and Matrix Nearness Problems of the Quaternion Matrix Equation (AXB, DXE) = (C, F)
No full textIt is established that the precise solutions on the minimum residual and matrix nearness problems of the quaternion matrix equation (AXB, DXE) = (C, F) for centrohermitian and skew-centrohermitian matrices, where X is an unknown quaternion matrix and A, B, C, D, E, and F are known quaternion matrices of suitable sizes. Moreover, an algorithm to get the solutions of the problems considered is provided, and a numerical example is also given to exemplify the results
At least seven distinct rotavirus genotype constellations in bats with evidence of reassortment and zoonotic transmissions
No full textBats host many viruses pathogenic to humans, and increasing evidence suggests that rotavirus A (RVA) also belongs to this list. Rotaviruses cause diarrheal disease in many mammals and birds, and their segmented genomes allow them to reassort and increase their genetic diversity. Eighteen out of 2,142 bat fecal samples (0.8%) collected from Europe, Central America, and Africa were PCR-positive for RVA, and 11 of those were fully characterized using viral metagenomics. Upon contrasting their genomes with publicly available data, at least 7 distinct bat RVA genotype constellations (GCs) were identified, which included evidence of reassortments and 6 novel genotypes. Some of these constellations are spread across the world, whereas others appear to be geographically restricted. Our analyses also suggest that several unusual human and equine RVA strains might be of bat RVA origin, based on their phylogenetic clustering, despite various levels of nucleotide sequence identities between them. Although SA11 is one of the most widely used reference strains for RVA research and forms the backbone of a reverse genetics system, its origin remained enigmatic. Remarkably, the majority of the genotypes of SA11-like strains were shared with Gabonese bat RVAs, suggesting a potential common origin. Overall, our findings suggest an underexplored genetic diversity of RVAs in bats, which is likely only the tip of the iceberg. Increasing contact between humans and bat wildlife will further increase the zoonosis risk, which warrants closer attention to these viruses. IMPORTANCE The increased research on bat coronaviruses after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome corona-virus (MERS-CoV) allowed the very rapid identification of SARS-CoV-2. This is an excellent example of the importance of knowing viruses harbored by wildlife in general, and bats in particular, for global preparedness against emerging viral patho-gens. The current effort to characterize bat rotavirus strains from 3 continents sheds light on the vast genetic diversity of rotaviruses and also hints at a bat origin for several atypical rotaviruses in humans and animals, implying that zoonoses of bat rotaviruses might occur more frequently than currently realized. © 2021 Simsek et al
Some remarks on the geometry of circle maps with a break point
No full textWe study circle homeomorphisms f ∈ C 2 (S 1 {x b }) whose rotation number ρ f is irrational, with a single break point x b at which f ′ has a jump discontinuity. We prove that the behavior of the ratios of the lengths of any two adjacent intervals of the dynamical partition depends on the size of break and on the continued fraction decomposition of ρ f . We also prove a result analogous to Yoccoz’s lemma on the asymptotic behaviour of the lengths of the intervals of trajectories of the renormalization transformation R n (f)
