Effect of Anthropogenic Activities and Seasons on Nutrients and Heavy Metal Loads of the Water and Sediments along Amala and Nyangores, Tributaries of River Mara Kenya
(Maseno University, 2013)
The Mara River Basin accommodates natural forests at its source. The forests' encroachment for human settlement has led to extensive deforestation and farming activities which may cause pollution of the natural aquatic ...
The Statistical Modeling of Retail Business Processes in Nyakach District
(Maseno University, 2013)
Multivariate statistical analysis of retail business processes was done in this study. Multiple predictor variables were included in the regression model. Meta-analysis of the correlations were also used to explore ...
Effects of Anthropogenic Activities on Selected Water Quality Parameters in Spring Water and Sediments along Amala and Nyangores Tributaries in the Mara River Basin, Kenya
(Maseno University, 2014)
Replacing natural forests with commercial crops and/or other small scale farming activities including human settlement have several environmental impacts. The land LISt' practices have the potential of contaminating aquatic ...
Association between Cd14 (Cd14c-159t) Promoter Polymorphism and Susceptibility to Severe Malaria Anemia in Children, below 3 Years Resident in Siaya District, Western Kenya
(Maseno University, 2013)
Among the infectious diseases worldwide, malaria is one of the leading causes of child morbidity and mortality. Severe malaria anemia (SMA) is the most common clinical manifestation of acute Plasmodium falciparum malaria ...
Comparing Lead and Cadmium Levels in Liver of Catfish (Clarias Gariepinus) from Nyalenda waste Stabilization Ponds and Ogal Beach on Lake Victoria, Kenya.
(Maseno University, 2013)
The bio accumulation of Cadmium and Lead metals in fish species poses danger to Kisumu city residents whose diet revolves around fish. Nyalenda Waste Stabilization Ponds (NWSPs), are sinks to domestic waste, hospital waste ...
Characterization of variability of Total Electron Content (TEC) over Malindi
(Maseno University, 2013)
The dynamics of the ionosphere depends largely on solar activity. The attenuation of
radio signals as they propagate through the ionosphere can be determined through a
parameter called the Total Electron Content (TEC),which ...

The concept of numerical range on a Hilbert space was first introduced
by O. Toeplitz in 1918 for matrices. This notion was independently ex
tended by G. Lumer and F. Bauer in the sixties on finite dimensional
Banach ...
On the Essential Numerical Range
(Maseno University, 2013)
The convexity. closure and compactness of the numerical range among
other properties constitute a considerable literature in operator theory.
The properties of the essential numerical range and how they are related
to ...
