Problématique : L’édentement et les troubles du sommeil sont des affections chroniques fréquentes chez les personnes âgées et qui peuvent avoir des conséquences défavorables sur le bien-être de ces personnes, ainsi que sur leur qualité de vie. L’édentement pourrait perturber le sommeil par la modification de la structure crânio-faciale et des tissus mous environnants. Cependant, cette relation n'est pas suffisamment documenté. Objectifs : Le but de cette étude pilote était de préparer la mise en œuvre d’une étude clinique randomisée contrôlée concernant l’effet du port nocturne des prothèses complètes sur la qualité du sommeil. Méthodologie : Treize aînés édentés ont participé à cette étude clinique randomisée contrôlée de type croisé. L’intervention consistait à dormir avec ou sans les prothèses durant la nuit. Les participants à l'étude ont été assignés à porter et ne pas porter leurs prothèses dans des ordres alternatifs pour des périodes de 30 jours. La qualité du sommeil a été évaluée par la polysomnographie portable et le questionnaire Pittburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Les données supplémentaires incluent la somnolence diurne, évaluée par le questionnaire Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), et la qualité de vie liée à la santé buccodentaire, évaluée par le questionnaire Oral Health Impact Profile 20 (OHIP-20). De plus, à travers les examens cliniques et radiologiques, les données des caractéristiques sociodémographiques, de la morphologie oropharyngée, des caractéristiques buccodentaires et des prothèses ont été recueillies. Les modèles de régression linéaire pour les mesures répétées ont été utilisés pour analyser les résultats. Résultats : L’étude de faisabilité a atteint un taux de recrutement à l’étude de 59,1% et un taux de suivi de 100%. Le port nocturne des prothèses dentaires augmentait l’index d'apnée-hypopnée (IAH) et le score PSQI par rapport au non port nocturne des prothèses : (IAH : Médiane = 20,9 (1,3 - 84,7) versus 11,2 (1,9 - 69,6), p = 0,237; le score PSQI : Médiane = 6,0 (3,0 - 11,0) versus 5,0 (1,0 - 11,0), p = 0,248). Cependant, ces différences n'étaient pas statistiquement significatives, sauf que pour le temps moyen d’apnée (plus long avec des prothèses) (p < 0,005) et le temps de ronflement relatif (moins élevé avec des prothèses) (p < 0,05). La somnolence diurne excessive et la qualité de vie liée à la santé buccodentaire étaient semblables pour les deux interventions (le score ESS : Médiane = 4,0 (3,0-10,0) versus 5,0 (2,0-10,0), p = 0,746; le score OHIP-20: Médiane = 31,0 (20,0-64,0) versus 27,0 (20,0-49,0), p = 0,670). L’impact néfaste du port nocturne des prothèses complètes sur le sommeil a été statistiquement significatif chez les personnes souffrant de l’apnée-hypopnée moyenne à sévère (p < 0,005). Conclusion : L’essai clinique pilote a montré que le port nocturne des prothèses complètes a un impact négatif sur la qualité du sommeil des gens âgés édentés, surtout chez les personnes avec l’apnée obstructive du sommeil modérée à sévère. Les résultats doivent être confirmés par l’étude clinique randomisée contrôlée de phase II.

Préparer la classe constitue une des tâches professionnelles afférentes à chaque enseignant. Cette tâche, dont l’action d’enseignement menée auprès des élèves résulte, s’effectue dans un espacetemps distinct de celui de la classe. Comment les enseignants du premier degré qui, à l’inverse des enseignants du second degré, doivent enseigner toutes les disciplines réalisent-ils cette tâche? Quelles ressources utilisent-ils? Les manuels qui représentent une grande part des supports proposés et commercialisés par les éditeurs constituent une ressource

This paper examines optimal solutions of control systems with drift defined on the orthonormal frame bundle of particular Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature. The manifolds considered here are the space forms Euclidean space E-3, the spheres S-3 and the hyperboloids H-3 with the corresponding frame bundles equal to the Euclidean group of motions SE(3), the rotation group SO(4) and the Lorentz group SO(1,3). The optimal controls of these systems are solved explicitly in terms of elliptic functions. In this paper, a geometric interpretation of the extremal solutions is given with particular emphasis to a singularity in the explicit solutions. Using a reduced form of the Casimir functions the geometry of these solutions are illustrated.

This paper examines optimal solutions of control systems with drift defined on the orthonormal frame bundle of particular Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature. The manifolds considered here are the space forms Euclidean space E³, the spheres S³ and the hyperboloids H³ with the corresponding frame bundles equal to the Euclidean group of motions SE(3), the rotation group SO(4) and the Lorentz group SO(1,3). The optimal controls of these systems are solved explicitly in terms of elliptic functions. In this paper, a geometric interpretation of the extremal solutions is given with particular emphasis to a singularity in the explicit solutions. Using a reduced form of the Casimir functions the geometry of these solutions is illustrated.

This paper considers left-invariant control systems defined on the Lie groups SU(2) and SO(3). Such systems have a number of applications in both classical and quantum control problems. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. Firstly, the optimal control problem for a system varying on these Lie Groups, with cost that is quadratic in control is lifted to their Hamiltonian vector fields through the Maximum principle of optimal control and explicitly solved. Secondly, the control systems are integrated down to the level of the group to give the solutions for the optimal paths corresponding to the optimal controls. In addition it is shown here that integrating these equations on the Lie algebra su(2) gives simpler solutions than when these are integrated on the Lie algebra so(3).

This paper considers the motion planning problem for oriented vehicles travelling at unit speed in a 3-D space. A Lie group formulation arises naturally and the vehicles are modeled as kinematic control systems with drift defined on the orthonormal frame bundles of particular Riemannian manifolds, specifically, the 3-D space forms Euclidean space E-3, the sphere S-3, and the hyperboloid H'. The corresponding frame bundles are equal to the Euclidean group of motions SE(3), the rotation group SO(4), and the Lorentz group SO (1, 3). The maximum principle of optimal control shifts the emphasis for these systems to the associated Hamiltonian formalism. For an integrable case, the extremal curves are explicitly expressed in terms of elliptic functions. In this paper, a study at the singularities of the extremal curves are given, which correspond to critical points of these elliptic functions. The extremal curves are characterized as the intersections of invariant surfaces and are illustrated graphically at the singular points. It. is then shown that the projections, of the extremals onto the base space, called elastica, at these singular points, are curves of constant curvature and torsion, which in turn implies that the oriented vehicles trace helices.

This paper uses the structure of the Lie algebras to identify the Casimir invariant functions and Lax operators for matrix Lie groups. A novel mapping is found from the cotangent space to the dual Lie algebra which enables Lax operators to be found. The coordinate equations of motion are given in terms of the structure constants and the Hamiltonian.

Let * be an involution of a group G extended linearly to the group algebra KG. We prove that if G contains no 2-elements and K is a field of characteristic p, 0 2, then the *-symmetric elements of KG are Lie nilpotent (Lie n-Engel) if and only if KG is Lie nilpotent (Lie n-Engel).

We study properties of self-iterating Lie algebras in positive characteristic. Let R = K[t(i)vertical bar i is an element of N]/(t(i)(p)vertical bar i is an element of N) be the truncated polynomial ring. Let partial derivative(i) = partial derivative/partial derivative t(i), i is an element of N, denote the respective derivations. Consider the operators v(1) = partial derivative(1) + t(0)(partial derivative(2) + t(1)(partial derivative(3) + t(2)(partial derivative(4) + t(3)(partial derivative(5) + t(4)(partial derivative(6) + ...))))); v(2) = partial derivative(2) + t(1)(partial derivative(3) + t(2)(partial derivative(4) + t(3)(partial derivative(5) + t(4)(partial derivative(6) + ...)))). Let L = Lie(p)(v(1), v(2)) subset of Der R be the restricted Lie algebra generated by these derivations. We establish the following properties of this algebra in case p = 2, 3. a) L has a polynomial growth with Gelfand-Kirillov dimension lnp/ln((1+root 5)/2). b) the associative envelope A = Alg(v(1), v(2)) of L has Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 2 lnp/ln((1+root 5)/2). c) L has a nil-p-mapping. d) L, A and the augmentation ideal of the restricted enveloping algebra u = u(0)(L) are direct sums of two locally nilpotent subalgebras. The question whether u is a nil-algebra remains open. e) the restricted enveloping algebra u(L) is of intermediate growth. These properties resemble those of Grigorchuk and Gupta-Sidki groups.

Let F-sigma(lambda)vertical bar G vertical bar be a crossed product of a group G and the field F. We study the Lie properties of F-sigma(lambda)vertical bar G vertical bar in order to obtain a characterization of those crossed products which are upper (lower) Lie nilpotent and Lie (n, m)-Engel.

Approximate Lie symmetries of the Navier-Stokes equations are used for the applications to scaling phenomenon arising in turbulence. In particular, we show that the Lie symmetries of the Euler equations are inherited by the Navier-Stokes equations in the form of approximate symmetries that allows to involve the Reynolds number dependence into scaling laws. Moreover, the optimal systems of all finite-dimensional Lie subalgebras of the approximate symmetry transformations of the Navier-Stokes are constructed. We show how the scaling groups obtained can be used to introduce the Reynolds number dependence into scaling laws explicitly for stationary parallel turbulent shear flows. This is demonstrated in the framework of a new approach to derive scaling laws based on symmetry analysis [11]-[13].

The concept of taut submanifold of Euclidean space is due to Carter and West, and can be traced back to the work of Chern and Lashof on immersions with minimal total absolute curvature and the subsequent reformulation of that work by Kuiper in terms of critical point theory. In this paper, we classify the reducible representations of compact simple Lie groups, all of whose orbits are tautly embedded in Euclidean space, with respect to Z(2)-coefficients.

We develop and describe continuous and discrete transforms of class functions on a compact semisimple, but not simple, Lie group G as their expansions into series of special functions that are invariant under the action of the even subgroup of the Weyl group of G. We distinguish two cases of even Weyl groups-one is the direct product of even Weyl groups of simple components of G and the second is the full even Weyl group of G. The problem is rather simple in two dimensions. It is much richer in dimensions greater than two-we describe in detail E-transforms of semisimple Lie groups of rank 3.

In the present work, binary-Lie, assocyclic, and binary (-1,1) algebras are studied. We prove that, for every assocyclic algebra A, the algebra A(-) is binary-Lie. We find a simple non-Malcev binary-Lie superalgebra T that cannot be embedded in A(-s) for an assocyclic superalgebra A. We use the Grassmann envelope of T to prove the similar result for algebras. This solve negatively a problem by Filippov (see [1, Problem 2.108]). Finally, we prove that the superalgebra T is isomorphic to the commutator superalgebra A(-s) for a simple binary (-1,1) superalgebra A.
