On Characterization of u-ideals determined by sequences’’
(2013)The area of ideals is important in the study of Analysis, algebra, Geometry and Computer science. The various types of ideals have been studied, for example m ideals and h ideals. The m ideals defined on real Banach spaces ... -
On Similarity and Quasisimilarity equivalence relations
(2012-01)Similarity and unitary equivalence can be shown to be of equivalence relations. We discuss a result showing that two similar operators have equal spectra (i.e. point and approximate point spectrum). More ... -
On the Banach Space Numerical Range for a Linear Operator ",
(Modern Scientific Press Company, Florida, USA, 2019-03-25)The numerical range has been studied extensively in Hilbert spaces. Properties of the numerical range such as non-emptiness, containment of the spectrum and in particular, convexity have been proved and results have ... -
On The Convexity of A Generalized q-Numerical Range’’
(2005-01)For a given $q in kom$ with $|q| le 1$, we study the $C$-numerical range of a Hilbert space operator where $C$ is an operator of the form [ left( begin{array}{ccc} qI_n & sqrt{1-|q|^2}I_n \ 0_n & 0_n end{array} right) oplus ... -
On The Norm of an Elementary Operator of Finite Length in A C*Algebra”
(2018-08)Properties of elementary operators have been studied over the past years especially the norm aspect. Various results have been obtained on elementary operators of different lengths using different approaches. In this paper, ... -
On the Norm of Basic Elementary Operator in a Tensor Product
(2018-01)In this paper, we determine the norm of an elementary operator in a tensor product. More precisely, we investigate the bounds of the norm of a basic elementary operator in a tensor product. We employ the techniques of ... -
Opioid-Free Labor Analgesia: Dexmedetomidine as an Adjuvant Combined with Ropivacaine
(Journal of Healthcare Engineering, 2022)Background Side effects of the use of opioid analgesics during painless delivery are the main factors that affect rapid postpartum recovery. Opioid use can result in dangerous respiratory depression in the patient. Opioids ... -
Opportunities for Quality Seed Production and Diffusion through Integration of the Informal Systems in Sub-Saharan Africa
(videleaf, 2020)In perpetuating the preferred crop species, seed is exchanged among family members, neighboring communities or between tribes and regions according to customs and practices in many African traditions. Overtime, this ... -
Optical and scanning kelvin probe microscopic characterization of sol-gel synthesized aluminum doped zinc cobalt ferrite nanoparticles
(academic Journals, 2020)In this work, Zn1-xCoFe2AlxO4 (x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0) ferrites were synthesized using the sol-gel method. XRD analysis was done and confirmed the formation of spinel structure, where the particle size and lattice ... -
The Optimization of Multiple Responses of Watermelon to Organic Manure Using Response Surface Methodology
(2017-03)This paper discusses the use of Central Composite Design approach to plan the experiments for growth and yield of watermelon with an overall objective of optimizes the multiple responses of watermelon to organic manure. ... -
Optimization of seed potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber yield and size distribution through integrated irrigation water, nitrogen and phosphorus mineral nutrient application.
(Science Domain International, 2013-12-16)Potato is the world's fourth important food crop after wheat, rice and maize because of its great yield potential and high nutritive value . In Kenya, potato is constrained by low seed tuber production in the informal ... -
Optimization of seed potato specific density, starch and dry matter contents and tuberization capacity of resultant plants through integrated irrigation, nitrogen and phosphorus management.
(Science Publishing Group, 2015-08-01)A study was conducted in a Rainshelter (RTrial) at the Horticultural Research and Teaching Farm of Egerton University to determine the effect of integrated application of irrigation water, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) ... -
Optimizing experimental procedures for quantitative evaluation of crop plant performance in high throughput phenotyping systems
(2015-01)Abstract Detailed and standardized protocols for plant cultivation in environmentally controlled conditions are an essential prerequisite to conduct reproducible experiments with precisely defined treatments. Setting up ... -
