La geometría en su contexto histórico
(Las Matemáticas y su Enseñanza 6(17):21–34, 1995 octubre, 1995-10-15)
La geometría en los sistemas de enseñanza media ha sido retomado por diversas propuestas para remozar los programas de matemáticas; y en el caso de Costa Rica, con la puesta en práctica de un programa ambicioso que destaca ...
Comparative analysis of dengue versus chikungunya outbreaks in Costa Rica
(2018-06)
For decades, dengue virus has been a cause of major public health concern in Costa Rica, due to its landscape and climatic conditions that favor the circumstances in which the vector, Aedes aegypti, thrives. The emergence ...
Analyzing the Measurement Equivalence of a Translated Test in a Statewide Assessment Program
Análisis de la equivalencia de la medida de la traducción de un test en un programa de evaluación estatal
(2016-09)
When tests are translated into one or more languages, the question of the equivalence of
items across language forms arises. This equivalence can be assessed at the scale level by means of
a multiple group confirmatory ...
Stora's fine notion of divergent amplitudes
(2016-11)
Stora and coworkers refined the notion of divergent quantum amplitude, somewhat upsetting the standard power-counting recipe. This unexpectedly clears the way to new prototypes for free and interacting field theories of ...
Heat content estimates over sets of finite perimeter
(2016-09)
This paper studies by means of standard analytic tools the small time behavior of the heat content over a bounded Lebesgue measurable set of finite perimeter by working with the set covariance function and by imposing ...
Improved Automatic Centerline Tracing for Dendritic and Axonal Structures
(2015-04)
Centerline tracing in dendritic structures acquired from confocal images of neurons is an essential tool for the construction of geometrical representations of a neuronal network from its coarse scale up to its fine scale ...
Stratifications on the Moduli Space of Higgs Bundles
(2016-11-02)
The moduli space of Higgs bundles has two stratifications. The Bia lynickiBirula stratification comes from the action of the non-zero complex numbers by multiplication on the Higgs field, and the Shatz stratification arises ...
The Error in an Alternating Series
(2018-03)
We present a new proof of Johnsonbaugh’s estimates for the error in an alternating series based on an idea of R. M. Young. We also use this same idea to prove the convergence of the Euler transform and a corresponding error ...
Propuesta de un curso teórico – práctico para la formación inicial de profesores de matemáticas: posible entorno de aprendizaje
(2016-06)
En este artículo se describe la propuesta de un curso teórico-práctico como un entorno de
aprendizaje para la formación inicial de profesores de matemática para educación secundaria.
Este curso se implementó en el 2015 ...
On the Ramanujan–Lodge harmonic number expansion
(2015-01-15)
The aim of this paper is to extend and refine the Ramanujan–Lodge harmonic number expansion into negative powers of a triangular number. We construct a faster asymptotic series and some new sharp inequalities for the ...
