The points of separation of magneto-hydrodynamic mixed convection boundary layer flow along a vertical plate have been investigated. The free stream velocity is considered decreasing exponentially in the stream wise direction. The governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a

We show that a parallel repetition of any two-prover one-round proof system (MIP(2, 1)) decreases the probability of error at an exponential rate. No constructive bound was previously known. The constant in the exponent (in our analysis) depends only on the original probability of error

the Schwartz-Zippel bound for general polynomials of the same total degree. The corresponding upper bound on failure probability is on the order of the inverse of the size of the finite field, showing that it can be made arbitrarily small by coding in a sufficiently large finite field, and that it decreases

Key idea:  use  endtoend  bandwidth estimation to  adaptively  set  cwnd  and ssthresh after congestion instead of standard “blind ”  multiplicative  window decrease

-based control algorithm, a scheduler to regulate transmissions, and a lightweight loss-resilient protocol to elicit feedback from receivers. Its ratebased scheme uses additive increase/multiplicative decrease, combined with a novel exponential aging scheme when receiver feedback is infrequent, to obtain

Dead zones in the coastal oceans have spread exponentially since the 1960s and have serious consequences for ecosystem functioning. The formation of dead zones has been exacerbated by the increase in primary production and consequent worldwide coastal eutrophication fueled by riverine runoff

the task decreases for one, two, and three robots respectively, then increases again for groups of four and five agents, due to an exponential increase in the number of interactions between robots which are time consuming and may eventually result in the destruction of existing clusters. We compare our

Using the method of cluster expansions, we prove exponential L_2+ε-mixing (ε arbitrarily small and positive) for Gibbs measures corresponding to dilute continuous systems of particles interacting via a stable, exponentially decreasing pair potential.

in independent Rayleigh channels scales linearly as the number of antennas. However, the correlation of a real-world wireless channel may result in a substantial degradation of the MIMO architecture performance. In this letter, we investigate the MIMO channel capacity in correlated channels using the exponential
