Let F be a simply connected figure formed from a finite set of cells of the planar square lattice. We first prove that if F has no peak (a peak is a cell of F which has three of its edges in the contour of F), then F can be tiled with rectangular bars formed from 2 or 3 cells. Afterwards, we devise

In this paper typical properties of large random Boolean ANDrOR formulas are investigated. Such formulas with n variables are viewed as rooted binary trees chosen from the uniform distribution of all rooted binary trees on m nodes, where n is fixed and m tends to infinity. The leaves are labeled by
Estimates are given of the number B n, L of distinct functions computed by propositional formulas of size L in n variables, constructed using only literals and n, k Ž connectives. L is the number of occurrences of variables. L y 1 is the number of binary ns Ž . and ks. B n, L is also the number of f
We compute the number of all rhombus tilings of a hexagon with sides a, b q 1, c, a q 1, b, c q 1, of which the central triangle is removed, provided a, b, c , where B ␣ , , ␥ is the number of plane partitions inside the ␣ =  = ␥ box. The proof uses nonintersecting lattice paths and a new identit
## Abstract Given the ubiquity, time investment, and theoretical relevance of meetings to work attitudes, this study explored whether organizational science should consider employee satisfaction with meetings as a contemporary, important, and discrete facet of job satisfaction. Using affective even
The notion of a BooLEan algebra with operators was introduced by J~NSSON and TARSKI [ 5 ] . It encompasses as special cases relation algebras (TARSKI [9]), closure algebras (MCKINSEY-TARSKI [S]), cylindric algebras (HENRIN-TARSKI [4]), polyadic algebras (HALMOS [Z]), and other algebras which have be
