For a nondegenerate projective irreducible variety $X{\subset}{\mathbb{P}}^r$, it is a natural problem to find an upper bound for the value of $${\ell}_{\beta}(X)=max\{length(X{\cap}L){\mid}L={\mathbb{P}}^{\beta}{\subset}{\mathbb{P}}^r,\;{\dim}(X{\cap}L)=0\}$$ for each $1{\leq}{\beta}{\leq}e$. When X is locally Cohen-Macaulay, A. Noma in [10] proves that ${\ell}_{\beta}(X)$ is at most $d-e+{\beta}$ where d and e are respectively the degree and the codimension of X. In this paper, we construct some surfaces $S{\subset}{\mathbb{P}}^5$ of degree $d{\in}\{7,{\ldots},12\}$ which satisfies the inequality $${\ell}_2(S){\geq}d-3+{\lfloor}{\frac{d}{2}}{\rfloor}$$. This shows that Noma's bound is no more valid for locally non-Cohen-Macaulay varieties.

In this paper, the reverse Bonnesen style inequalities for convex domain in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ are investigated. The Minkowski mixed convex set of two convex sets K and L is studied and some new geometric inequalities are obtained. From these inequalities obtained, some isoperimetric deficit upper limits, that is, the reverse Bonnesen style inequalities for convex domain K are obtained. These isoperimetric deficit upper limits obtained are more fundamental than the known results of Bottema ([5]) and Pleijel ([22]).

Let $N{\geq}1$ and p > 1. Let ${\Omega}$ be a domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$. In this article we shall establish Kato's inequalities for quasilinear degenerate elliptic operators of the form $A_pu$ = divA(x,$\nabla$u) for $u{\in}K_p({\Omega})$, ), where $K_p({\Omega})$ is an admissible class and $A(x,\xi)\;:\;{\Omega}{\times}\mathbb{R}^N{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}^N$ is a mapping satisfying some structural conditions. If p = 2 for example, then we have $K_2({\Omega})\;= \;\{u\;{\in}\;L_{loc}^1({\Omega})\;:\;\partial_ju,\;\partial_{j,k}^2u\;{\in}\;L_{loc}^1({\Omega})\;for\;j,k\;=\;1,2,{\cdots},N\}$. Then we shall prove that $A_p{\mid}u{\mid}\;\geq$ (sgn u) $A_pu$ and $A_pu^+\;\geq\;(sgn^+u)^{p-1}\;A_pu$ in D'(${\Omega}$) with $u\;\in\;K_p({\Omega})$. These inequalities are called Kato's inequalities provided that p = 2. The class of operators $A_p$ contains the so-called p-harmonic operators $L_p\;=\;div(\mid{{\nabla}u{\mid}^{p-2}{\nabla}u)$ for $A(x,\xi)={\mid}\xi{\mid}^{p-2}\xi$.

We study Diriclet forms and related subjects for the Gibbs measures of classical unbounded sping systems interacting via potentials which are superstable and regular. For any Gibbs measure $\mu$, we construct a Dirichlet form and the associated diffusion process on $L^2(\Omega, d\mu), where \Omega = (R^d)^Z^\nu$. Under appropriate conditions on the potential we show that the Dirichlet operator associated to a Gibbs measure $\mu$ is essentially self-adjoint on the space of smooth bounded cylinder functions. Under the condition of uniform log-concavity, the Gibbs measure exists uniquely and there exists a mass gap in the lower end of the spectrum of the Dirichlet operator. We also show that under the condition of uniform log-concavity, the unique Gibbs measure satisfies the log-Sobolev inequality. We utilize the general scheme of the previous works on the theory in infinite dimensional spaces developed by e.g., Albeverio, Antonjuk, Hoegh-Krohn, Kondratiev, Rockner, and Kusuoka, etc, and also use the equilibrium condition and the regularity of Gibbs measures extensively.

Let $B_1$ be a unit ball in $R^n(n{\geq}3)$, and $2^*=2n/(n-2)$ be the critical Sobolev exponent for the embedding $H_0^1(B_1){\hookrightarrow}L^{2^*}(B_1)$. By using a variant of Pohoz$\check{a}$aev's identity, we prove the nonexistence of nodal solutions for the Dirichlet problem $-{\Delta}u-{\mu}\frac{u}{{\mid}x{\mid}^2}={\lambda}u+{\mid}u{\mid}^{2^*-2}u$ in $B_1$, u=0 on ${\partial}B_1$ for suitable positive numbers ${\mu}$ and ${\nu}$.

Porphyromonas gingivalis is a gram negative. black-pigmented anaerobe, associated with periodontitis & peri-implantitis. Fimbriae(fimA) of P. gingivalis are filamentous components on the cell surface and important in the colonization and invasion of periodontal tissue. But all P. gnigivalis strains don't have equal pathogenicity, inequality among strains originates from different fimA genotype. P. gnigivalis fimA gene encoding fimbrillin(structural subunit of fimbriae) has been classified into 5 genotypes(types I to V) based on the nucleotide sequences. In the present study, we examined the prevalence of these fimA genotypes in patients with dental implant and the relationship between prevalence of these genotypes and a condition of peri-implant tissue. Dental plaque specimens obtained from 189 peri-implant sulci of 97 patients with dental implants were analyzed by 16S rRNA fimA gene-directed PCR assay. P. gingivalis were detected in 86.2% of the alll samples. Among the P. gingivalis-positive samples, a significant difference in the occurrence of typeII was observed between test and the two control groups. In two control groups, typeII fimA were detected in 6.3%(PD<5mm/BOP-). 18.7%(PD<5mm/BOP+). In the test $group(PD{\geqq}5mm/BOP+)$, type II fimA genotype were detected most frequently in 50.0% . And a correlation between specific fimA types and peri-implantitis was found in $typeII(R^2=l.105)$. These results suggest that P. gingivalis strains that possess typeII fimA are gradually increased, as a condition of peri-implant tissue is getting complicated and are closely associated with peri-implant health status. We speculate that these organisms be involved in peri-implantitis
