Norm estimates for convexoid operators
(JOOUST, 6/24/2015)Hilbert space operators are important in formulation of principles of quantum mechanics and also in other fields of applied sciences. These operators include normal operators, hyponormal operators, normaloid operators, ... -
Norms and numerical radii inequalities for ( , ) - normal transaloid operators
(JOOUST, 6/24/2015)The studies on Hilbert spaces for the last decade has been of great interest to many mathematicians and researchers, especially on operator inequalities related to operator norms and numerical radii for a family of bounded ... -
Norms of derivation associated with idempotents and unitary operators
(6/24/2015)The study of operators has continued to attract the attention of many researchers. Of special interest are the calculations of norms of these operators. Johnson Stampfli wrote a paper on the norms of derivation on algebra ... -

(Transformative Agri-food Systems, 2022-04-01)Protein malnutrition is a serious challenge in the developing countries. Attention is shifting to the use of edible insects in a form which is acceptable to people irrespective of social status and level of civilization ... -
On norm preserving conditions for local automorphisms of commutative banach algebras
(JOOUST, 6/24/2015)The history of commutative algebra first appeared in 1890 by David Hilbert which was then followed by Banach spaces in 1924 since localization reduces many problems of geometric special case into commutative algebra problems ... -
On numerical radius attainability for normal self-adjoint operators
(JOOUST, 6/24/2015)The numerical range and numerical radius are very useful in studying linear operators acting on Hilbert spaces. The operators include normal, hyponormal, normaloid, transaloid, self-adjoint, subnormal, compact and unitary. ... -
On shift of mindset: the importance of change of mindset in helping students get better at getting better in mathematics
(JOOUST, 6/24/2015)That mathematics is important in enhancing creativity, innovativeness and technological development is undisputable. Kenya like any other African country is endowed with reach human resource yet lesscompetitive ... -

(JOOUST, 2015-06-24)Cervical cancer is the third most common female cancer worldwide and causes approximately 275,000 deaths annually worldwide, of which 88% occur in low income countries. In Kenya cervical cancer is the leading female cancer ... -
Policy implications to the socio-economic analysis of adoption determinants of new agricultural technologies in Kenya: the case of south western Kenya region
(2015-06-24)Effective agricultural development requires equal contributions from research, extension, and the farmer. Agrowing concern among agricultural development researchers is that the farmer has often been side lined withmany ... -
Policy issues in integrating indigenous knowledge in building community resilience to climate change risk
(JOOUST, 2015-06-24)Many African communities have used indigenous knowledge (IK) as a critical knowledge base and survival tool for adapting to extreme climate events and other natural hazards. IK may be defined as an ancient, communal, ... -
