Functional analysis is a powerful tool when applied to mathematical problems arising from
physical situations. The present book provides, by careful selection of material, a collection of …

Although increasing use is being made of arterial grafts (the internal mammary arteries) for
direct myocardial revascularization, it is frequently not possible to reach the posterior surface …

Background. Off-pump coronary bypass may provide a safer form of surgical revascularization
by avoiding the unwanted complications of cardiopulmonary bypass, particularly in the …

Generalizing the notion of left amenability for so-called F-algebras [12], we study the concept
of ϕ-amenability of a Banach algebra A, where ϕ is a homomorphism from A to ℂ. We …

A microcytotoxicity assay employing a tetrazolium salt has been adapted for testing the
response of human leukemic blast cells to a variety of chemotherapeutic agents. After exposure …

The second dual LX (G)** of the group algebra of a locally compact group G has been
studied in a series of papers recently. Most complete information has been obtained for the …

A simple colorimetric test, the MTT assay, has been adapted for chemosensitivity testing of
human small cell lung cancer cell lines, and fresh tumour samples. Optimal conditions for …

… J be an ideal in B with J ⊆ ker ϕ and let ϕ : B/ J → C be the homomorphism induced by ϕ. If
J has a right identity and B/ J has a ϕ-mean in B/ J… Since e is a right identity for J and (m − me…

This article describes a successful academic development programme in a Commerce faculty
at a relatively elite, historically white university in South Africa. The writers argue that the …

This paper is a contribution to the theory of weakly sequentially complete Banach algebrasA.
We require them to have bounded approximate identities and, for the most part, to be ideals …
