    Levin Powell Johnson, a son of William H. Johnson, came with his parents and family from Alabama in the early 1850s. Levin P. moved to a homestead south of Bradenton and married the widow Mary Hays, then the couple moved to a grove along the Braden River. Levin owned several groves an amassed a huge herd of cattle. Levin died July 29, 1881 and was the first person buried in the Braden River cemetery

    In this paper we establish some inequalities of Hadamard’s type involving Godunova-Levin functions, P-functions, quasi-convex functions, Jquasi- convex functions, Wright-convex functions and Wright-quasi-convex functions

    The “Colour Family Drawing Test”: Assessing Children’s Perception of Family Relationships. Studies on Mental Health and Cross-Cultural Comparisons.

    We apply the Colour Family Drawing Test, as a development of the traditional black and white test, for cross-cultural comparison. The participants, aged 7 - 10 years, both genders, were examined individually. Each subject sat at a single table with a white rectangular card of standard size, 24 well-sharpened colour pencils, a black pencil, an eraser and other appropriate tools. S/he received this verbal instruction: “Draw your family”. The procedure was firstly applied to 120 participants attending primary schools of Rome (Biasi, Bonaiuto and Levin, 2014). The families were evaluated through a semi-structural interview conducted with the children’s teachers and divided into: Harmonious versus Very Conflictual Families. The drawings made by children of Harmonious Families consistently used “Reassuring and Playful Colours” (Pink, Orange, Sky Blue, Light Green, Light Yellow, other pastel colours); and were larger, tidier and more proportioned to respect the opposite group. Children belonging to Conflictual Families used mostly “Alarming and Serious Colours” (Grey, Black, Dark Bleu, Violet, Olive Green) and their drawings were less extended, more often disordered and had typical deformations such as figures too thin. A second investigation examined 120 participants belonging to Asian immigrant families residing in Italy. A third investigation examined 120 participants belonging to Russian families of Moscow. Both last two investigations obtained very similar results on the use of colours, and gave a confirmation of the relevance of the Colour Family Drawing Test

    On Weighted Remainder Form of Hardy-Type Inequalities

    We use different approaches to study a generalization of a result of Levin and Stečkin concerning an inequality analogous to Hardy’s inequality. Our results lead naturally to the study of weighted remainder form of Hardy-type inequalities

    INTERSECTIONS IN SUBVARIETIES OF Glm AND APPLICATIONS TO LACUNARY POLYNOMIALS

    No full text
    We investigate intersections of a given subvariety X of Glm with cosets of 1-parameter subtori, on interpreting the context in terms of S-unit points over function fields. On adopting a function field version of a method introduced recently by the second author, extending to arbitrary dimensions previous work of the first and third authors, we prove that when the number of intersections is substantially higher than expected, one can classify the relevant subtori. As a consequence, we obtain a classification of the cosets of subtori such that there are many multiple intersections with X. This also allows a new proof of a conjecture of Erdős and Rényi on lacunary polynomials. We finally show how the methods yield results in the realm of Unlikely Intersections in Glm, and in the last section, reinterpret some of the results in terms of Vojta’s conjecture with truncated counting functions
