On the Minimal Entropy Martingale Measure and Multinomial Lattices with Cumulants
(2012)
In this article, we describe with relevant examples based on empirical data how to
use the minimal entropy martingale measure (MEMM) to price European and American Options
in multinomial lattices which take into account ...
On spectral properties of -commuting operators in Hilbert spaces
(2012)
Let B(H) denote the Banach algebra of bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert
space H and let A;B 2 B(H) satisfying the equation; AB = BA; 2 C;AB 6= 0, where C
denotes the complex number eld. In this case A and ...
Temperature-dependent feeding interactions between two invasive fishes competing through interference and exploitation
(University of Nairobi, 2012-06)
Context-dependent ecological interactions between invasive species are important in determining the outcomes of their introductions. The consequences of competitive interactions between the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus ...
Natural and experimental studies on domestic animal infections with visceral and cutaneous leishmaniases in Kenya.
(10/3/2012)
The control of visceral and cutaneous leishmaniases in Kenya has been difficult due to poor knowledge of animal reservoirs of these diseases. Little is known about the feeding preferences of phlebotomine sand flies that ...
Spatial coherence and potential predictability assessment of intraseasonal statistics of wet and dry spells over Equatorial Eastern Africa
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2012)
The aim of this study was to derive components of the intraseasonal rainfall variations from the daily rainfall
in the Equatorial Eastern Africa region and assess their spatial coherence, a pointer to their potential ...
Multielemental Analysis of Limestone and Soil Samples of Kitui South (Kenya) Limestone Deposits
(2012)
The results of analysis of heavy metal in limestone and soil samples from the limestone deposit areas of Kitui South, Kenya
were reported in this paper. The analysis was carried out to assess the environmental impact of ...
A note on a-self -adjoint and a-skew -adjoint operators and their extensions
(2012)
In this paper we introduce the notions of an A-self-adjoint, an A-skewadjoint
linear operator, where A is a self-adjoint and invertible operator
and related classes of operators, which generalize some known classes ...
Occurrence of Fusarium species and associated T2-toxin in Kenyan wheat
(© 2012 SciRes, 2012)
Survey covering 120 wheat fields was conduc- ted in three wheat-growing districts of Kenya during the 2008 cropping season to determine the incidence of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and T2-toxin contamination in grain. FHB ...
High-throughput screening and sensitized bacteria identify an M. tuberculosis dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor with whole cell activity.
(2012)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis, is a bacterial pathogen that claims roughly 1.4 million lives every year. Current drug regimens are inefficient at clearing infection, requiring at ...
OSI-930 analogues as novel reversal agents for ABCG2-mediated multidrug resistance
(2012)
OSI-930, a dual c-Kit and KDR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is reported to have undergone a Phase I dose escalation study in patients with advanced solid tumors. A series of fifteen pyridyl and phenyl analogues of OSI-930 ...
