\section{} Carbon based materials of nano-size in the form of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are known for several years and attracted much attention of researchers because of their unusual electronic properties \cite{Iij,Dre,Sai}. Recently, progress in the fabrication of other graphene-based lower dimensional structures has...

\section{Introduction} Blockchain systems have substantially evolved from their beginnings as tamper-evident append-only logs. With the addition of \emph{smart contracts}, complex computations based on the blockchain's state become possible. In fact, several permissionless and permissioned systems such as Ethereum~\ci...

\section{Introduction} The $^{15}$N(p,$\gamma$)$^{16}$O reaction ($Q$-value $Q$ = 12.127\,MeV) links the CN cycle \cite{Bethe39-PR_letter,Weizsaecker38-PZ} to the CNO bi-cycle and all further CNO cycles \cite{Iliadis07}. The $^{15}$N(p,$\gamma$)$^{16}$O cross section $\sigma(E)$ ($E$ denotes the center of mass energy...

\section{Introduction} Recently the authors \cite{LHT} introduced lecture hall tableaux in their study of multivariate little $q$-Jacobi polynomials $P_\lambda(x;a,b;q)$ with $t=q$. They showed that if we expand the Schur function $s_\lambda(x)$ in terms of $P_\mu(x;a,b;q)$ and vice versa as \[ s_\lambda(x) =...

\subsection{Experimental determination of solid-liquid interface} \label{sec_expint} In the quasi-2D geometry the solid phase consists of two square interlaced layers instead of the single hexagonal layer that is characteristic of 2D systems \cite{urbach}. These interlaced square lattices, when projected in 2D, result...

We are interested in sampling from a bounded connected space $\Omega'\subset\Real^n$ that might be non-convex. Such sampling methods can be useful in solving general optimization and planning problems. Recentl...
