Uncontrolled self-set tree growth allowed by BR after the end of steam has created today's overhanging tree canopy, with the resulting adhesion problems to which RAIB attributes this collision.
K-theory was developed by Atiyah and Hirzebruch in the 1960s based on work of Grothendieck in algebraic geometry. It was introduced as a tool in C*-algebra theory in the early 1970s through some specific applications described below. Very briefly, K-theory (for C*-algebras) is a pair of functors, called K₀ and K₁, that to each C*-algebra A associate two Abelian groups K₀(A) and K₁(A).
I remember the last time I saw Macbeth played, the discrepancy I felt at the changes of garment which he varied, the shiftings and reshiftings, like a Romish priest at mass.
