We prove the following Hartogs-Bochner type theorem: Let M be a connected C^{2}hypersurface of P_{n}(C) (n≥2) which divides P_{n}(C) in two connected open sets Ω_{1}and Ω_{2}. Suppose that M has at most one open CR orbit. Then there exists i∈{1,2} such that C^{1}CR functions defined on M extends holomorphically to Ω_{$i$}.

We find some necessary conditions for a real Banach space to be an almost CL-space. We also discuss the stability of CL-spaces and almost CL-spaces by$c$_{0}- and$l$_{1}-sums. Finally, we address the question if a space of vector-valued continuous functions can be a CL-space or an almost CL-space.

Rerandomization is a strategy for improving balance on observed covariates in randomized controlled trials. It has been both advocated and advised against by renowned scholars of experimental design. However, the relationship and differences between stratification, rerandomization, and the combination of the two have not been previously investigated. In this paper, we show that stratified designs can be recreated by rerandomization and explain why, in most cases, stratification on binary covariates followed by rerandomization on continuous covariates is more efficient than rerandomization on all covariates at the same time.
