Ascent and descent of multiplication and composition induced operators on variable exponent lebesgue spaces
No full textThe paper focuses on determining the ascent and descent of multiplication, composition, and weighted composition operators on variable exponent Lebesgue spaces. We explore the conditions on the measurable functions u and measurable transformations T defined on σ-finite complete measure space (X,A,μ) that cause these operators on variable exponent Lebesgue spaces to have finite or infinite ascent (descent)
Nanostructure-driven complex magnetic behavior of Sm2CoMnO6 double perovskite
Full text linkMagnetic double perovskite oxides have steadily emerged as an important class of functional materials. A clear understanding of the complex interactions that govern the magnetic behavior, and thereby, the functionality in these mixed valence compounds, however, remains elusive. In this study, we show that the complex nanostructure that forms in these compounds is at the root of their magnetic behavior. Using complementary experimental and micromagnetic simulation results, we have uncovered the complex nanostructure of polycrystalline Sm2CoMnO6, a typical double perovskite oxide, and established how the nanostructure drives its magnetic behavior. Our results show that Sm2CoMnO6 exhibits a Griffiths phase with the formation of ferromagnetic clusters above the ordering temperature. The isothermal magnetization curves show no sign of saturation, even at the highest measured field (9 T), and irreversibility in the entire magnetic field range. Despite a very clear indication of the presence of antiferromagnetic antisite defects, surprisingly, no antisite defect-induced exchange bias occurs. This is explained from the micro magnetic simulations that confirm the presence of ferromagnetic nanoclusters and nanosized, random, and uncorrelated antisite defects, resulting in no exchange bias. This work provides a clear understanding of the role of antisite defects, in particular, on how their structure can lead to the presence/absence of exchange bias. The fundamental insight offered in this work fills an important knowledge gap in the field and will be of immense value in realizing the true potential of double perovskite oxides for future technological applications.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Meromorphically normal families and a meromorphic Montel-Carath\'eodory theorem
Full text linkIn this paper, we present various sufficient conditions for a family of
meromorphic mappings on a domain into to
be meromorphically normal. Meromorphic normality is a notion of sequential
compactness in the meromorphic category introduced by Fujimoto. We give a
general condition for meromorphic normality that is influenced by Fujimoto's
work. The approach to proving this result allows us to establish meromorphic
analogues of several recent results on normal families of -valued
holomorphic mappings. We also establish a meromorphic version of the
Montel-Carath\'eodory theorem.Comment: 13 page
