A Menon-type identity using Klee's function
No full textsummary:Menon's identity is a classical identity involving gcd sums and the Euler totient function . A natural generalization of is the Klee's function . We derive a Menon-type identity using Klee's function and a generalization of the gcd function. This identity generalizes an identity given by Y. Li and D. Kim (2017)

Audio Files in Binary Format and Corresponding .wav File for Payload Data in Communication Systems
No full textThis dataset contains audio files (in both binary uint8 format and .wav) used as the payload data for a communication system simulated as part of the project titled "Stochastic Spectrum Prediction via Diffusion Probabilistic Models and Representation Learning" by Chaoyi He, Arya Menon, and Linda Katehi.
Audio files in .wav format were randomly selected from the internet sources below, trimmed to a length between 1e6 and 8e6 samples, and converted into binary unit8 format using MATLAB software. The binary files and the corresponding audio files are available for download via this dataset.

Sandy Cairncross, Maggie Black and Girish Menon - 28 Mar 2008
No full textIn this edition of Audio News, presented by Peter Goodwin, Sandy Cairncross, Maggie Black (Earthscan), and Girish Menon (Water Aid) talk about:
The Last Taboo: Opening The Door On The Global Sanitation Crisis
a book by Maggie Black and Ben Fawcett, published by Earthscan with UNICEF.
A massive improvement in health and wealth in developing countries could be achieved by providing systems to dispose of human excreta safely. A new book: "The Last Taboo" was launched at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine by the Professor of Environmental Health, Sandy Cairncross

Tettagalma striata Menon, new species
No full textTettagalma striata Menon, new species Figs 1–2 Diagnosis. As for genus. Description. Adult in ventral aspect, with right forewing almost complete and left forewing largely missing; hind wings not preserved (Fig. 1). Body. Head and thorax partly obscured by thin film of sediment. Head small, 1 mm long, 3 mm wide, bearing small, lateral eyes; antennae short, inserted before the eyes. Rostrum and most of cuticle not preserved. Thorax 8 mm long, 9 mm wide; legs not preserved. Abdomen 14 mm long robust, elongated, pointed posteriorly; abdomen composed of nine visible segments of slightly different size (Fig. 1): second segment 1 mm long, 9 mm wide; last segment 1.5 mm long, 2.5 mm wide. Forewings. 25 mm long, elongated, with rounded apex, highly sclerotized, covered by thin layer of sediment, at least over basal area. Costal margin prominent, indented at nodus and thinning toward apex. Costal space slightly wider basally. Nodus situated 12 mm from wing base. Sc+R origin at wing base, straight, prominent, bifurcating at approximately a quarter of wing length (6 mm from wing base); R simple, almost parallel to costal margin, with slight indentation at nodal line, reaching the margin anteriorly to apex. Rs with three branches, basally straight, slightly sigmoidal distally, first two branches reaching margin anterior to apex (Fig. 2). Crossvein rsma straight, simple, situated on distal half of wing, with anterior tip tilted toward wing base. M+CuA origin apparently from R, near wing base, straight, bifurcating at intersection with cross vein scp+rm+cua; the latter long, vertical, strongly prominent; M branches, MA and MP, originating before nodal line; MA forking well after nodal line; MA slightly indented at level of mamp 1 crossvein; MP slightly sigmoid, with two apical branches. CuA simple, initially straight, curving anteriorly near nodal line, deflected abruptly along nodal line and curving posterorly to margin. Crossveins mpcua long, prominent, distally placed. CuP apparently straight and anal area not visible, obscured by body. Cross venation between the main longitudinal veins forming eight closed apical cells and four closed anteapical cells (Fig. 2). Marginal membrane relatively wide, 0.40. 6 mm, bearing prominent striation. Striae equidistant, approximately 0.2 mm. Hairs and setae have left an impression basally on wing costal area. Original colour pattern across radial, medial, and cubital systems preserved as a dark brown coloration. Holotype. SMNS 65507, deposited in the Staatlisches Museum für Naturkunde Stuttgart, Germany. Etymology. From the Latin striata, in reference to the parallel striae in the marginal membrane. Remarks. This genus and species is most similar to the extant Tettigarcta and to Liassotectigarcta from the Liassic of Germany. It differs from the Recent genus by having more branches of MA, the fork of M being placed more distally, closer to nodal line, and by the basal venation with the origin of M closer to the base. The most noticeable difference from Liassotectigarcta is the wing length (42.7 mm in Liassotettigarcta). Furthermore, the new species differs also from this species mainly by the forewings being wider with rounded apex, and by having a wider marginal membrane. CuA in Liassotettigarcta is not deflected anteriorly at the nodal line as in Tettagalma; this may be caused by the nodal line being more distally placed in Liassotettigarcta.Published as part of Menon, Federica, 2005, New record of Tettigarctidae (Insecta, Hemiptera, Cicadoidea) from the Lower Cretaceous of Brazil, pp. 53-58 in Zootaxa 1087 on pages 54-56, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17050
Comparisons of Two Integral Inequalities with Hermite-Hadamard-Jensen's Integral Inequality
No full textCertain comparisons of Iyengar-Mahajani’s and Kesava Menon’s
integral inequalities with Hermite-Hadamard-Jensen’s integral inequalities are
considered and some mistakes in the paper [On certain inequalities by Iyengar
and Kesava Menon, Octogon Math. Mag. 4 (1996), no. 1, 9–11.] are corrected.
Some applications of these inequalities to elementary functions are carried out
and several inequalities involving mean values are obtained
Anti-colonial struggles, postcolonial subversions : an interview with Nivedita Menon
No full textThis interview centres around three themes: a) anti-colonial and nationalist convergences and disjunctures; b) the tensions between feminism and nationalism and inherent contradictions within Indian feminism and c) knowledge economies. Despite the mass presence of women in every kind of anti-imperialist resistance, feminist issues were not visible in the mainstream nationalist agenda, even well after independence in India. Over successive years, all homogenizing and patriarchal moves that accompany mainstream nationalism were subject to intense debate and scrutiny. In fact, this co-optation of feminist goals in nationalist neo-liberal agendas is a feature shared with many postsocialist economies. Menon critiques the concept of intersectionality which congeals into non-recognition multiple axes of identity, seeing race as the primary oppression. This has been a vexed issue for Dalit feminism(s). Finally, in relation to knowledge production, Menon identifies the production and distribution of knowledge as one still dominated by American and Western European academy, which potentially cripples dialogues between postsocialist and postcolonial scholars.</p
