(International Policy Centre for Inclusive Growth (IPC - IG), 2010-10)Difficult economic times began for Namibia in 2008 as real economic growth suddenly dropped to 4.3 per cent from the 5.5 per cent recorded in 2007. There were also wide fluctuations in ... -
On (n, m)-Metrically Equivalent Operators
(International Journal of Mathematics And its Applications, 2021)In this paper, we introduce the class of (n,m)-metrically equivalent operators which is a generilazation of metrically equivalent operators and n-metrically equivalent operators. We then look at some properties of this ... -
On class (n, mBQ) Operators
(World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews, 2021-06-26)In this paper, we introduce the class of (n, mBQ) operators acting on a complex Hilbert space H. An operator if T ∈ B (H) is said to belong to class (n, mBQ) if T ∗2mT 2n commutes with (T ∗mTn ) 2 equivalently [T ∗2mT 2n, ... -
On N-A-Metrically Equivalent and A-Metrically Equivalent Operators
(International Journal of Mathematics And its Applications, 2021)A-metrically equivalent operators may be regarded as a generalization of metrically equivalent operators. This is realized when A= I and T ]= T ∗ . Definition 1.1. Two operators S ∈ BA(H) and T ∈ BA(H) are said to ... -
On Numerical Range of Multiplication Operator
(International Journal of Mathematical Analysis, 2019)Let H be an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space and A, B ∈ B(H) where B(H) is the C ∗ -algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. Let MAB : B(H) → B(H) be a multiplication operator induced by A and B defined ... -
On Skew Class (BQ) Operators
(Iconic Research and Engineering Journals, 2022-12)The class of Skew (BQ) operators acting complex Hilbert on an separable H is introduced in this paper. An operator if K ∈L (H) is said to belong to class Skew (BQ) if K commutes with a (BQ) operator, that ... -
Optimisation of Online Newspaper Headline Length with Characters
(East African Journal of Education and Social Sciences, 2020)The question of how many characters should an online newspaper headline have is still debatable. This study therefore, sought to examine the optimal length for the online newspaper headlines by using characters as the ... -
Optimization of Seed Potato Specific Density, Starch and Dry Matter Contents and Tuberization Capacity of Resultant Plants Through Integrated Irrigation, Nitrogen and Phosphorus Management
(Journal of Plant Sciences, 2015-07-30)A study was conducted in a Rainshelter (RTrial) at the Horticultural Research and Teaching Farm of Egerton University to determine the effect of integrated application of irrigation water, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) ... -
Organizational communication on devolved governance: a case of Kisii county executive
(International Journal of Social Sciences and Information Technology, 2018-11)Devolution being a new phenomenon in Kenya, the capacity of the counties to face up with communication challenges and potential structural complexities to ensure that they are managed sustainably is a concern. County ... -
An overview of fish disease and parasite occurrence in the cage culture of Oreochromis niloticus: A case study in Lake Victoria, Kenya
(2021)Cage aquaculture has been on a steady rise in Lake Victoria, Kenya, since 2016, resulting in the current culturing of over 3,600 cages of Tilapia (O. niloticus) (Orina et al., 2018). Unfortunately, there has been limited, ... -
Parameterized Empirical Potentials For BaF2 From Ab-Initio Methods Applied To The Study Of Superionic Transition Of C-BaF2
(Journal of Multidisciplinary Engineering Science and Technology (JMEST), 2018)Potentials for BaF2 have been generated from the ab-initio methods and tested to determine its applicability in classical dynamics. The minimization process for this force field was stopped at 17% where forces, ... -

(International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies (IJIRAS), 2018)Teenage pregnancy is a global public health problem with medical, psychological, social and demographic implications most of which negatively affect the future of teenage girls. In view of this, teenage pregnancy has ... -
Patterns of Influence of Diabetics’ Integrating Healthcare Seeking Behaviors on Diabetes Management in Rongo Subcounty, Migori County, Ken
(African Journal of Health Sciences, 2021-08)Diabetes is a fast-growing socio-economic burden, highly prevalent in Kenya due to inadequacies of mitigation measures; though manageable through appropriate healthcare-seeking behaviors (HSBs). High malaria and HIV/AIDS ... -
Patterns Of Utilization Of Maternal Healthcare Services In Korogocho Slums, Nairobi, Kenya
(International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies (IJIRAS), 2017)Maternal mortality is a grave concern in Africa. In 2015, sub-Saharan Africa alone accounted for approximately 66% of all maternal deaths worldwide. Studies have however established that maternal mortality can be prevented ... -
