Analysis of Factors Affecting Consumer Behavior towards Green Banking using TPB Model

The purpose of this research paper is to analyze the factors which are affecting consumer behavior towards green banking. Alternatively, the research focuses on how customer’s attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control can play their role in the use and promotion of green banking. To analyze the data, this research paper follows the positivism philosophy therefore a quantitative approach is used to examine the problem by circulating a questionnaire among 263 people who are selected by using purposive sampling technique as the target audience was those people who have Bank account in Pakistan. The findings of this study support the previous results of the theory of planned behavior. Consumer attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control have a high effect on consumer intention to use green banking which shows that bank consumers in Pakistan are willing to use technology-driven banking practices if they are available. The result also supports past studies on attitude towards the adoption of internet and mobile banking in Pakistan. Our research can be helpful in developing an effective marketing strategy for the adoption of green banking. This study will help the government and marketers to create awareness regarding the benefits of using technology-driven eco-friendly banking practices so that consumers can learn about internet banking and start using it.
Parallaxes of 6.7-GHz methanol masers towards the G 305.2 high-mass star formation region

We have made measurements to determine the parallax and proper motion of the three 6.7-GHz methanol masers G 305.200+0.019, G 305.202+0.208 and G 305.208+0.206. The combined parallax is found to be 0.25±0.05 mas, corresponding to a distance of 4.1^{+1.2}_{-0.7} kpc. This places the G 305.2 star formation region in the Carina-Sagittarius spiral arm. The inclusion of G 305.2 increases the Galactic azimuth range of the sources in this arm by 40° from Sato et al., allowing us to determine the pitch angle of this spiral with greater confidence to be ψ = 19.0° ± 2.6°. The first very long baseline interferometry spot maps of the 6.7-GHz methanol masers towards these sources show that they have simple linear and ring-like structures, consistent with emission expected from class II methanol masers in general.
The local lifting problem for dihedral groups

Let $G=D_p$ be the dihedral group of order $2p$, where $p$ is an odd prime. Let $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. We show that any action of $G$ on the ring $k[[y]]$ can be lifted to an action on $R[[y]]$, where $R$ is some complete discrete valuation ring with residue field $k$ and fraction field of characteristic 0.
Design TPACK Strategy with Modellus Software for Simulation Based on The Guided Inquiry on The Wave Concept

Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) is a teacher framework in integrating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in learning. The purpose of the initial learning planning by implementing the guided inquiry-based TPACK strategy is to increase the mastery of concepts and student learning activities. This research uses the literature review method with qualitative predictive analysis. Object research is an information system with the reason that there is a change in the application of information systems that were once still conventional, now began to be computerized and the development of information systems can be on various platforms, Among others, the web, desktop, mobile, and the last reason being that the development of information system systems has a variety of methods. Initial planning of learning using TPACK-based guided inquiry effectively improves students' mastery of concepts. The subjects were transversal and longitudinal waves with Modellus software. In general, this initial design is that learning with guided inquiry-based TPACK strategies increases mastery of concepts and student learning activities.
A Scoping Review of the Management of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia in Africa

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-malignant prostate gland enlargement of unknown cause that affects more than 50% of men over 60 and is the most common cause of bladder outlet obstruction and voiding symptoms. BPH is treated primarily with watchful waiting, phytotherapy (herbs), and medical or surgical options. In this study, we sought to examine the different management practices in African urological centers, outcomes of management, and complications. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, African Journal Online, and Google Scholar regarding the management of BPH from inception till date. Articles were selected based on their relevance to the management of benign prostatic enlargement in Africa. Results are reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) extension for scoping reviews. The studies included were conducted from 1997 to 2022. They were from eight different African countries (Nigeria, Kenya, Togo, Ethiopia, Egypt, South Africa, Ghana, and Congo), with Nigeria contributing the most with 10 studies. Exactly 2999 patients were included in the study. Seventy-three (73.49%) percent of these patients totaling 2204, underwent surgical management of BPH, 124 (4.13%) patients were treated with phytomedicines or herbs, and 684 (22.80%) patients were treated with medical therapy. The complications and outcomes were studied and collated. A total of 808 patients opted for non-surgical treatment for BPH in the included studies. In this group, 124 were treated using phytochemicals or natural herbs, and 648 were treated with standard prescription medications. While surgical treatment for benign prostatic enlargement is shifting towards minimally invasive procedures in the developed world, open prostatectomy is still quite popular in Africa. Further research should focus not only on the reason for these disparities in management but also on the rationale for the selection of medical, surgical, or phytotherapy in African urological centres.
Bifurcation results for semilinear elliptic problems in RN

In this paper we obtain, for a semilinear elliptic problem in RN, families of solutions bifurcating from the bottom of the spectrum of −Δ. The problem is variational in nature and we apply a nonlinear reduction method that allows us to search for solutions as critical points of suitable functionals defined on finite-dimensional manifolds.
Analysis of regularized inversion of data corrupted by white Gaussian noise

Tikhonov regularization is studied in the case of linear pseudodifferential operator as the forward map and additive white Gaussian noise as the measurement error. The measurement model for an unknown function u(x) is m(x)=Au(x)+δϵ(x),? >where δ > 0 is the noise magnitude. If ε was an L2-function, Tikhonov regularization gives an estimate Tα(m)= arg min u∈Hr∥Au−m∥L22+α∥u∥Hr2? > for u where α = α(δ) is the regularization parameter. Here penalization of the Sobolev norm ∥u∥Hr? > covers the cases of standard Tikhonov regularization (r = 0) and first derivative penalty (r = 1). Realizations of white Gaussian noise are almost never in L2, but do belong to Hs with probability one if s < 0 is small enough. A modification of Tikhonov regularization theory is presented, covering the case of white Gaussian measurement noise. Furthermore, the convergence of regularized reconstructions to the correct solution as δ → 0 is proven in appropriate function spaces using microlocal analysis. The convergence of the related finite-dimensional problems to the infinite-dimensional problem is also analysed.
OBSERVATIONAL PROPERTIES OF ROTATIONALLY EXCITED MOLECULAR HYDROGEN IN TRANSLUCENT LINES OF SIGHT

The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) has allowed precise determinations of the column densities of molecular hydrogen (H2) in Galactic lines of sight with a wide range of pathlengths and extinction properties. However, survey studies of lines of sight with greater extinction have been mostly restricted to the low-J states (lower total angular momentum) in which most molecular hydrogen is observed. This paper presents a survey of column densities for the molecular hydrogen in states of greater rotational excitation (J ⩾ 2) in Galactic lines of sight with log N(H2) ≳ 20. This study is comprehensive through the highest excited state detectable in each line of sight. J = 5 is observed in every line of sight, and we detect J = 7 in four lines of sight, J = 8 in one line of sight, and vibrationally excited H2 in two lines of sight. We compared the apparent b-values and velocity offsets of the higher-J states relative to the dominant low-J states and we found no evidence of any trends that might provide insight into the formation of higher-J H2, although these results are the most affected by the limits of the FUSE resolution. We also derive excitation temperatures based on the column densities of the different states. We confirm that at least two distinct temperatures are necessary to adequately describe these lines of sight, and that more temperatures are probably necessary. Total H2 column density is known to be correlated with other molecules; we explore if correlations vary as a function of J for several molecules, most importantly CH and CH+. Finally, we briefly discuss interpretations of selected lines of sight by comparing them to models computed using the Meudon PDR code.
MANAGEMENT OF ULCERATIVE ORAL LICHEN PLANUS PREDISPOSED BY PSYCHOLOGICAL STRESS

Background: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune oral mucosa disease. The ulcerative type of OLP presents as erythematous ulceration with mucosal erosions surrounding whitish striae. The aetiology of OLP is unknown, but can be predisposed by psychological factors. Purpose: Reporting ulcerative oral lichen planus predisposed by psychological stress. Case: A 36 years old woman complained very painful ulcer in the right buccal mucosa and a grey-purple lower lip lesion for a year. It had been treated with topical corticosteroids, antibiotics, tretinoin, and vitamins but did not heal. Extraoral examination on the lower vermillion showed bluish-purple macules, diffuse and irregular borders, rough and painful. Intraoral examination in the right buccal mucosa showed an irregular yellowish-white ulcer with an erythematous area and white striae. Case Management: Screening for psychological stress by DASS 42 showed moderate stress and severe anxiety. Autofluorescence examination showed no malignant transformation sign. A complete blood count test showed low neutrophil and lymphocyte count. ANA test was normal. Systemic Methyl Prednisolone 8 mg was prescribed 2 tabs twice a day and tapered off after the lesion resolved within 1 week. Supportive treatments include Benzydamine HCl and multivitamins. Discussion: Stress, anxiety, and depression were possible factors of OLP mediated by the Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis system and the Sympathetic-adrenal-medullary (SAM) system. Specific mechanisms are mediated by Antigen-specific CD8+ (CTLs) that are activated with the help of CD4+ T-cells. Non-specific mechanism mediated by MMP-9 activation. They led to the apoptosis of keratinocytes. Systemic corticosteroids are an important treatment for oral lichen planus that do not responded to topical steroids. Conclusion: Oral Lichen Planus is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the oral mucosa and can be predisposed by psychological stress. Corticosteroid is very effective to treat oral lichen planus, especially the erosive-ulcerative type. Keywords: Oral Lichen Planus, Psychological Stress, Ulcerative
Cohomological Hall algebra, exponential Hodge structures and motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants

We define a new type of Hall algebras associated e.g. with quivers with polynomial potentials. The main difference with the conventional definition is that we use cohomology of the stack of representations instead of constructible sheaves or functions. In order to take into account the potential we introduce a generalization of theory of mixed Hodge structures, related to exponential integrals. Generating series of our Cohomological Hall algebra is a generalization of the motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants introduced in arXiv:0811.2435. Also we prove a new integrality property of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants.
High resolution CO observation of massive star forming regions

Context. To further understand the processes involved in the formation of massive stars, we have undertaken a study of the gas dynamics surrounding three massive star forming regions. By observing the large scale structures at high resolution, we are able to determine properties such as driving source, and spatially resolve the bulk dynamical properties of the gas such as infall and outflow. Aims. With high resolution observations, we are able to determine which of the cores in a cluster forming massive stars is responsible for the large scale structures. Methods. We present CO observations of three massive star forming regions with known HII regions and show how the CO traces both infall and outflow. By combining data taken in two SMA configurations with JCMT observations, we are able to see large scale structures at high resolution. Results. We find large (0.26–0.40 pc), massive (2–3 M� ) and energetic (13–17 × 10 44 erg) outflows emanating from the edges of two HII regions suggesting they are being powered by the protostar(s) within. We find infall signatures in two of our sources with mass
SPITZER IRAC COLOR DIAGNOSTICS FOR EXTENDED EMISSION IN STAR-FORMING REGIONS

The infrared data from the Spitzer Space Telescope are an invaluable tool for identifying physical processes in star formation. In this study, we calculate the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) color space of UV fluorescent H2 and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission in photodissociation regions (PDRs) using the Cloudy code with PAH opacities from Draine & Li. We create a set of color diagnostics that can be applied to study the structure of PDRs and to distinguish between FUV-excited and shock-excited H2 emission. To test this method, we apply these diagnostics to Spitzer IRAC data of NGC 2316. Our analysis of the structure of the PDR is consistent with previous studies of the region. In addition to UV excited emission, we identify shocked gas that may be part of an outflow originating from the cluster.
STIRRED, NOT CLUMPED: EVOLUTION OF TEMPERATURE PROFILES IN THE OUTSKIRTS OF GALAXY CLUSTERS

Recent statistical X-ray measurements of the intracluster medium (ICM) indicate that gas temperature profiles in the outskirts of galaxy clusters deviate from self-similar evolution. Using a mass-limited sample of galaxy clusters from cosmological hydrodynamical simulations, we show that the departure from self-similarity can be explained by non-thermal gas motions driven by mergers and accretion. Contrary to previous claims, gaseous substructures only play a minor role in the temperature evolution in cluster outskirts. A careful choice of halo overdensity definition in self-similar scaling mitigates these departures. Our work highlights the importance of non-thermal gas motions in ICM evolution and the use of galaxy clusters as cosmological probes.
Effects of fungal infections associated with COVID-19 in pandemic era

Fungal infections such as endemic mycoses, pneumocystosis, candidiasis, aspergillosis, mucormycosis and cryptococcosis associated with COVID-19 are becoming complicated in management and diagnosis of critical ill COVID-19 patients. However, mortality rates due to fungal infections are significantly high. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of fungal infections associated with COVID-19 during the pandemic era. A systemic literature review was carried out to evaluate the effect of fungal infections associated with COVID-19 incidence from relevant published articles. Invasive Fungal Infections (IFIs) had the highest incidence of 26.7% from 137 intensive care unit patients screened for IFIs in 2020. Currently, drugs that are commonly used in the treatment of COVID-19 patients such as casirivimab and imdevimab, bamlanivimab and etesevimab, sotrovimab, and remdesivir had no any effects on fungal infections. In India, 53% of mortality rate which caused by 60% of Candida auris and in Brazil, 72.7% following corticosteroids use were reported. Recently, no any reports related to mortality rate due to Candida infections associated with COVID-19 in Spain and USA. Numerous current advances in management and diagnosis of these fungal infections associated with COVID-19 have not been much potentially significant. It is predicted and possible that the development of new and potent antifungal drugs, antimicrobial peptides and nanotechnology based approaches for drug delivery would help to reduce or eliminate these fungal infections associated with COVID-19 and restraint its spread across the globe.
Nuclearity Related Properties in Operator Systems

Some recent research on the tensor products of operator systems and ensuing nuclearity properties in this setting raised many stability problems. In this paper we examine the preservation of these nuclearity properties including exactness, local liftability and the double commutant expectation property under basic algebraic operations such as quotient, duality, coproducts and tensor products. We show that, in the finite dimensional case, exactness and lifting property are dual pairs, that is, an operator system $S$ is exact if and only if the dual operator system $S^d$ has the lifting property. Moreover, the lifting property is preserved under quotients by null subspaces. Again in the finite dimensional case we prove that every operator system has the k-lifting property in the sense that whenever $f:S -> A/I$ is a unital and completely positive map, where A is a C*-algebra and I is an ideal, then $f$ possess a unital k-positive lift on A, for every k. This property provides a novel proof of a classical result of Smith and Ward on the preservation of matricial numerical ranges of an operator. The Kirchberg conjecture naturally falls into this context. We show that the Kirchberg conjecture is equivalent to the statement that the five dimensional universal operator system generated by two contraction ($S_2$) has the double commutant expectation property. In addition to this we give several equivalent statements to this conjecture regarding the preservation of various nuclearity properties under basic algebraic operations. We show that the Smith Ward problem is equivalent to the statement that every three dimensional operator system has the lifting property (or exactness). If we suppose that both the Kirchberg conjecture and the Smith Ward problem have an affirmative answer then this implies that every three dimensional operator system is C*-nuclear.
A CLASSIFICATION OF LAGRANGIAN PLANES IN HOLOMORPHIC SYMPLECTIC VARIETIES

Classically, an indecomposable class $R$ in the cone of effective curves on a K3 surface $X$ is representable by a smooth rational curve if and only if $R^{2}=-2$ . We prove a higher-dimensional generalization conjectured by Hassett and Tschinkel: for a holomorphic symplectic variety $M$ deformation equivalent to a Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on a K3 surface, an extremal curve class $R\in H_{2}(M,\mathbb{Z})$ in the Mori cone is the line in a Lagrangian $n$ -plane $\mathbb{P}^{n}\subset M$ if and only if certain intersection-theoretic criteria are met. In particular, any such class satisfies $(R,R)=-\frac{n+3}{2}$ , and the primitive such classes are all contained in a single monodromy orbit.
The influence of strong magnetic fields on proto-quark stars

We analyze different stages of magnetized quark star evolution incorporating baryon number conservation and using an anisotropic energy momentum tensor. The first stages of the evolution are simulated through the inclusion of trapped neutrinos and fixed entropy per particle, while in the last stage the star is taken to be deleptonized and cold. We find that, although strong magnetic fields modify quark star masses, the evolution of isolated stars needs to be constrained by fixed baryon number, which necessarily lowers the possible star masses. Moreover, magnetic field effects, measured by the difference between the parallel and perpendicular pressures, are more pronounced in the beginning of the star evolution, when there is a larger number of charged leptons and up quarks. We also show that having a spatially varying magnetic field allows for larger magnetic fields to be supported.
A NEW SAMPLE OF BURIED ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI SELECTED FROM THE SECOND XMM-NEWTON SERENDIPITOUS SOURCE CATALOGUE

We present the results of X-ray spectral analysis of 22 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with a small scattering fraction selected from the Second XMM-Newton Serendipitous Source Catalogue using hardness ratios. They are candidates of buried AGNs, since a scattering fraction, which is a fraction of scattered emission by the circumnuclear photoionized gas with respect to direct emission, can be used to estimate the size of the opening part of an obscuring torus. Their X-ray spectra are modeled by a combination of a power law with a photon index of 1.5–2 absorbed by a column density of ∼1023–24 cm−2, an unabsorbed power law, narrow Gaussian lines, and some additional soft components. We find that scattering fractions of 20 among 22 objects are less than a typical value (∼3%) for Seyfert 2s observed so far. In particular, those of eight objects are smaller than 0.5%, which are in the range for buried AGNs found in recent hard X-ray surveys. Moreover, [O iii] λ5007 luminosities at given X-ray luminosities for some objects are smaller than those for Seyfert 2s previously known. This fact could be interpreted as a smaller size of optical narrow emission-line regions produced in the opening direction of the obscuring torus. These results indicate that they are strong candidates for the AGN buried in a very geometrically thick torus.
Permeabilities of metamaterials

Scattering of electromagnetic (EM) waves by many small particles, embedded in a given medium, is studied. Physical properties of the particles are described by their boundary impedances. The limiting equation is obtained for the effective EM field in the limiting medium, in the limit $a\to 0$, where $a$ is the characteristic size of a particle and the number $M(a)$ of the particles tends to infinity at a suitable rate. An analytical formula for the permeability $\mu(x)$ of the limiting medium is given. Analysis of this formula allows one to find out the range of the values of the permeability in the material, obtained by embedding many small particles.
Large deviation principles for nongradient weakly asymmetric stochastic lattice gases

We consider a lattice gas on the discrete d-dimensional torus $(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})^d$ with a generic translation invariant, finite range interaction satisfying a uniform strong mixing condition. The lattice gas performs a Kawasaki dynamics in the presence of a weak external field E/N. We show that, under diffusive rescaling, the hydrodynamic behavior of the lattice gas is described by a nonlinear driven diffusion equation. We then prove the associated dynamical large deviation principle. Under suitable assumptions on the external field (e.g., E constant), we finally analyze the variational problem defining the quasi-potential and characterize the optimal exit trajectory. From these results we deduce the asymptotic behavior of the stationary measures of the stochastic lattice gas, which are not explicitly known. In particular, when the external field E is constant, we prove a stationary large deviation principle for the empirical density and show that the rate function does not depend on E.
