Projectivity of Universal Algebras
Abstract: The basic relations between universal algebras are homomorphisms and their special cases – monomorphisms, epimorphisms, and isomorphisms (cf., for example, (Kurosh, 1963; Cohn, 1965)). In this paper, we introduce and study a novel relation between universal algebras, which is called projectivity and allows obtaining properties of universal algebras from properties of those universal algebras to which they are weakly or finally projective. The key property of projectivity relations is that …

Principles of Thermodynamics in Mechanical Engineering to Discover the Spatial Limit of Our Universe as one Concept Mechanical System in Third Quantisation
Abstract: In the present research work, the basic principles of thermodynamics in mechanical engineering are briefly described. These thermodynamic principles are applied to discover the spatial limit of universe (finite or infinite) by considering the universe as one conceptmechanical-system in third quantisation. According to this research work, universe is progressing by time towards the thermodynamic-state of maximum entropy as most stablestate of universe. This most stable-state may be the final destiny …

A Method of Universal Primer Design for The Detection of Diverged CTX-M Beta-Lactamases in Multi-Drug Resistant Superbugs
Abstract: Complexity of many diverged β-lactamases in common multi-drug resistant bacteria has reached very high level. We found >40% of common bacteria in Kolkata water bodies were ampicillin resistant and reported clinical isolates were >95% ampicillin resistant worldwide. More than twenty unique sequence classes of β-lactamases were known to cause MDR inactivating penicillin, cephalosporin and carbapenem drugs. Further, there are other diverged MDR genes like drug efflux genes (acrAB, mexAB-EF, tetA), …

FRW Universe in R2 Gravity
Abstract: We investigate a model of the Friedmann Robertson Walker metric (FRW) universe governed by hybrid expansion law (HEL) a = tα eβt in R2 gravity. By Applying, energy and stability conditions in derived model, we check its physical viability. This model is based on f (R, T) = f (R) + f (T); f (R) = R + αR2 and f (T) = T and we have assumed T = …

What if the "Big Bang" was not the Beginning Point of our Observable Universe?
Abstract: The Big Bounce theory envisions the Big Bang as the start of a period of expansion followed by a period of contraction. According to this viewpoint, there was a Big Crunch (another singularity) followed by a Big Bang, or, more simply, a Big Bounce. This implies that we could be at any point in an infinite series of universes, or that the current universe is the very first interaction. But …
