(Ajol: African Journal of Tropical Hydrobiology and Fisheries, 2018-06-01)
This study assessed the heavy metals concentrations in municipal solid wastes at Eldoret Mwenderi dumpsites located at the shores of river Sosiani within the Lake Victoria Basin, Kenya. Concentrations of the three heavy ...
On summing multipliers and applications
(Academic press, 2001-01-01)
A scalar sequence (αi) is said to be a p-summing multiplier of a Banach space E, if ∑∞i = 1‖αixi‖p < ∞ for all weakly p-summable sequences in E. We study some important properties of the space mp(E) of all p-summing ...
