    Naj bosta n in k naravni števili in n≥k. To diplomsko delo predstavlja nov razred grafov H(n,k), ki vsebuje hiperkocke ter Johnsonove in Kneserjeve grafe kot njegove podgrafe. V prvem poglavju so povzeti osnovni pojmi iz teorije grafov, v drugem delu pa bodo predstavljeni nekateri rezultati vezani na družino H(n,k). Na primer, H(n,k) ima maksimalno povezanost (n nad k), H(n,k) je Hamiltonov, če je k liho število ter je sestavljen iz dveh izomorfnih povezanih komponent, če je k sodo število.Let n and k be positive integers and n≥k. This Graduation Thesis represents a new class of graphs H(n,k), which contains hypercubes, Johnson and Kneser graphs as its subgraphs. The first part summarizes the basic concepts of graph theory, while the second part will present some of the results linked to the family H(n,k). For example, H(n,k) has the maximum connectivity (n choose k), H(n,k) is hamiltonian if k is an odd number, and it consists of two isomorphic connected components if k is even

Data were obtained from forty students through Diagnostic Test of Repeating Decimal Numbers including open-ended questions. Questions were prepared according to the classification of misconceptions as overgeneralization, overspecialization, mistranslation and limited conception. As a part of rational numbers unit the topic of representation of repeating decimals is introduced at 6, 7, 8 and 9 grades in our schools. In spite of this, findings of this study illustrate that even nine grade students still have some common misconceptions about this topic. Findings illustrated that most students misconceptions were based on overgeneralization. In addition to this students also shared the other categories of misconceptions as well

    Achievable Degrees of Freedom on K-user Y Channels

    No full text
    In this paper, we consider K-user Y channels where K users simultaneously exchange messages with each other via an intermediate relay. Degrees of freedom (DOF) of Y channels with multiple antennas is not known in general. Investigation of the feasibility conditions of signal space alignment for network coding is an initial step for addressing this open problem. We verify that when user i with M-i antennas sends K-1 independent messages to the other users through a relay with N antennas and each message achieves the DOF of d, the total DOF of dK(K-1) is attained if M-i >= d(K - 1), N >= dK(K-1)/2 and N infinity. Also for Y channels where all nodes have a single antenna, we show that the DOF of 2 is achieved regardless of the number of users by using the rational dimension framework.116063sciescopu

    Citation: Hurst, M. N., & DeLong, R. K. (2016). Two-Dimensional Fluorescence Difference Spectroscopy to Characterize Nanoparticles and their Interactions. Scientific Reports, 6, 9. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep33287Two dimensional fluorescence difference spectroscopy (2D FDS) detects nanoparticle interactions following surface functionalization and biomolecule loading by generating a spectral signature of the fluorescent intensity per excitation and emission wavelengths. Comparing metal oxide nanoparticles revealed a unique spectral signature per material composition. 2D FDS showed to be sensitive to changes in surface properties between ZnO NPs synthesized by different methods. ZnO NP loaded with glycol chitosan, polyacrylic acid (PAA), or methoxy polyethylene glycol (mPEG) exhibited a distinct spectral signature shift. ZnO NP loaded with Torula Yeast RNA (TYRNA)(640 nm), polyinosinic: polycytidylic acid (pIC)(680 nm), or splice switching oligonucleotide (SSO)(650 nm) each revealed a shift in emission. Ras-Binding domain (RBD) at three concentrations (25, 37.5, 50 mu g/mL) showed that fluorescent intensity was inversely related to the concentration of protein loaded. These data support 2D FDS as a novel technique in identifying nanoparticles and their surface interactions as a quality assurance tool

    High-k/InGaAs interface defects at cryogenic temperature

    Oxide defects in the high-k/InGaAs MOS system are investigated. The behaviour of these traps is explored from room temperature down to 10 K. This study reveals that the exchange of free carriers between oxide states and either the conduction or the valence band is strongly temperature dependant. The capture and emission of electrons is strongly suppressed at 10 K as demonstrated by the collapse of the capacitance frequency dispersion in accumulation for n-InGaAs MOS devices, though hysteresis in the C-V sweeps is still present at 10 K. Phonon assisted tunnelling processes are considered in the simulation of electrical characteristics. The simulated data match very well the experimental characteristics and provide energy and spatial mapping of oxide defects. The multi phonon theory also help explain the impedance data temperature dependence. This study also reveals an asymmetry in the free carrier trapping between n and p type devices, where hole trapping is more significant at 10 K
