https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half%20graph
In graph theory, a branch of mathematics, a half graph is a special type of bipartite graph. These graphs are called the half graphs because they have approximately half of the edges of a complete bipartite graph on the same vertices. The name was given to these graphs by Paul Erdős and András Hajnal. Definition To define the half graph on vertices and , connect to by an edge whenever . The same concept can also be defined in the same way for infinite graphs over two copies of any ordered set of vertices. The half graph over the natural numbers (with their usual ordering) has the property that each vertex has finite degree, at most . The vertices on the other side of the bipartition have infinite degree. Properties Distances In a half graph, every two vertices are at distance one, two, or three. Any two vertices and are at distance two via a path through , and any two vertices and are at distance two via a path through . If two vertices on opposite sides of the bipartition are not adjacent (at distance one), then they are at distance three via a path through both and . Half-graphs are a special case of the bipartite chain graphs (bipartite graphs in which, on each side of the bipartition, the vertices can be ordered by neighborhood inclusion), which are in turn a special case of the bipartite distance-hereditary graphs. Thus, half-graphs are distance-hereditary. That is, in every connected induced subgraph of a half-graph, the distances are the same as in the half-graph itself. Matching The half graph has a unique perfect matching. This is straightforward to see by induction: must be matched to its only neighbor, , and the remaining vertices form another half graph. More strongly, every bipartite graph with a unique perfect matching is a subgraph of a half graph. In graphs of uncountable chromatic number If the chromatic number of a graph is uncountable, then the graph necessarily contains as a subgraph a half graph on the natural numbers. This half graph, in turn, contains every complete bipartite graph in which one side of the bipartition is finite and the other side is countably infinite. Applications Regularity One application for the half graph occurs in the Szemerédi regularity lemma, which states that the vertices of any graph can be partitioned into a constant number of subsets of equal size, such that most pairs of subsets are regular (the edges connecting the pair behave in certain ways like a random graph of some particular density). If the half graph is partitioned in this way into subsets, the number of irregular pairs will be at least proportional to . Therefore, it is not possible to strengthen the regularity lemma to show the existence of a partition for which all pairs are regular. On the other hand, for any integer , the graphs that do not have a -vertex half graph as an induced subgraph obey a stronger version of the regularity lemma with no irregular pairs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Baghuz%20Fawqani
Al-Baghuz Fawqani () is a town in Syria, located in Abu Kamal District, Deir ez-Zor. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Al-Baghuz Fawqani had a population of 10,649 in the 2004 census. Syrian Civil War During the course of the Syrian Civil War, the Baghuz area (including the nearby town Baghuz at-Tahtani) came under the control of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) jihadist organization. The area was initially administered by ISIL's Euphrates Province, but later transferred to al-Barakah district. During a multi-year campaign in eastern Syria, the town was captured from ISIL by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on 23 January 2019, leaving ISIL completely besieged in the town of Al-Marashidah, to the north. However, on the next day, ISIL launched a series of suicide attacks to break the siege, allowing them to recapture parts of the town (mostly the western parts of the town), with the town's outskirts being targeted by air raids of the international coalition. On 7 February 2019, the SDF captured Al-Marashidah and other nearby areas from ISIL, completely besieging ISIL in the town of Al-Baghuz Fawqani, the final settlement under its control in the Levant. Battle of Baghuz Fawqani On 9 February 2019, the Syrian Democratic Forces, supported by the CJTF-OIR Coalition, launched a final assault to take Baghuz Fawqani and wipe out the last bastion of physical territory held by the Islamic State, opening the attack with a massive bombardment on the Huwayjat Khanafirah neighborhood, with violent clashes continuing throughout the night and into the morning hours. The Coalition said it struck a mosque in Baghuz Fawqani on 11 February, as it was being used as a command and control center by the Islamic State. On 28 February, SDF spokesman Adnan Afrin announced discovery of a mass grave found 10 days ago in the town. It contained dozens of bodies, including of men and women while heads were also found in the grave. The SDF was trying to confirm whether they were Yazidis and Islamic State members. A video of Furat FM showed a mass-grave. The outlet's executive said that most of the bodies were apparently shot in the head. SDF spokeswoman Lilwa Abdulla confirmed they found large number of Yazidi bodies though there was no specific number. However, locals said the corpses were victims of airstrikes. The assault to take the town resumed on 1 March, with the remaining ISIL militants and their families besieged and encamped at a tent city along the river. On 18 March, the United States launched an airstrike which killed 80 people, most of them civilians according to the New York Times. On 19 March, SDF spokesman Mustafa Bali announced that the SDF had control of all of Al-Baghuz Fawqani, with the exception for a few pockets along the shores of the Euphrates river, where intermittent clashes were still ongoing with resisting jihadists. On Saturday, 23 March 2019, SDF forces, backed by the US, retook all of Al-Baghuz F

By 24 January 2019, Al-Marashidah was one of the final remaining Syrian settlements under control of the Islamic State, with the Syrian Democratic Forces fighting for control of the town. On the next day, ISIL carried out numerous suicide attacks on the SDF, in an attempt to break the siege, allowing them to recapture parts of Al-Baghuz Fawqani, to the south. On 7 February 2019, the SDF captured Al-Marashidah and other nearby areas from ISIL, completely besieging ISIL in the town of Al-Baghuz Fawqani.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cop%20number
In graph theory, a branch of mathematics, the cop number or copnumber of an undirected graph is the minimum number of cops that suffices to ensure a win (i.e., a capture of the robber) in a certain pursuit–evasion game on the graph. Rules In this game, one player controls the position of a given number of cops and the other player controls the position of a robber. The cops are trying to catch the robber by moving to the same position, while the robber is trying to remain uncaught. Thus, the players perform the following actions, taking turns with each other: On the first turn of the game, the player controlling the cops places each cop on a vertex of the graph (allowing more than one cop to be placed on the same vertex). Next, the player controlling the robber places the robber on a vertex of the graph. On each subsequent turn, the player controlling the cops chooses a (possibly empty) subset of the cops, and moves each of these cops to adjacent vertices. The remaining cops (if any) stay put. On the robber's turn, he may either move to an adjacent vertex or stay put. The game ends with a win for the cops whenever the robber occupies the same vertex as a cop. If this never happens, the robber wins. The cop number of a graph is the minimum number such that cops can win the game on . Example On a tree, the cop number is one. The cop can start anywhere, and at each step move to the unique neighbor that is closer to the robber. Each of the cop's steps reduces the size of the subtree that the robber is confined to, so the game eventually ends. On a cycle graph of length more than three, the cop number is two. If there is only one cop, the robber can move to a position two steps away from the cop, and always maintain the same distance after each move of the robber. In this way, the robber can evade capture forever. However, if there are two cops, one can stay at one vertex and cause the robber and the other cop to play in the remaining path. If the other cop follows the tree strategy, the robber will eventually lose. General results Every graph whose girth is greater than four has cop number at least equal to its minimum degree. It follows that there exist graphs of arbitrarily high cop number. Henri Meyniel (also known for Meyniel graphs) conjectured in 1985 that every connected -vertex graph has cop number . The Levi graphs (or incidence graphs) of finite projective planes have girth six and minimum degree , so if true this bound would be the best possible. All graphs have sublinear cop number. One way to prove this is to use subgraphs that are guardable by a single cop: the cop can move to track the robber in such a way that, if the robber ever moves into the subgraph, the cop can immediately capture the robber. Two types of subgraph that are guardable are the closed neighborhood of a single vertex, and a shortest path between any two vertices. The Moore bound in the degree diameter problem implies that at least one of these two kinds of g

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James%20R.%20Thompson%20%28statistician%29
James Robert Thompson (June 18, 1938 – December 4, 2017) was an American mathematician, statistician, and university professor whose most influential work combined applied mathematics and nonparametric statistics with computing technologies to advance the fields of financial engineering and computational finance, model disease progression, assess problems in public health, and optimize quality control in industrial manufacturing. Thompson was a longtime faculty member of Rice University in Houston, TX. He joined the university in 1970 as an Associate Professor in the Wiess School of Natural Sciences’ Department of Mathematical Sciences. He became the founding chair of the Department of Statistics in 1987. The department moved to the George R. Brown School of Engineering in 1990. Thompson retired from Rice in 2016 as the Noah Harding Emeritus Professor of Statistics. During his career, Thompson authored or co-authored 14 books, including his most cited books Models for Investors in Real World Markets, Empirical Model Building: Data, Models, and Reality 2nd ed., and Statistical Process Control for Quality Improvement, co-authored with Jacek Koronacki. Thompson was a principal investigator for the United States Army Research Office (ARO), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO). From 1991-1993, he directed a team of 12 Polish statisticians to teach statistical process control in the newly-liberated Polish factories after the fall of communism. The training manual and teachings are reflected in the previously mentioned book Statistical Process Control: The Deming Paradigm and Beyond. Thompson and his collaborators are most recently known for the quantitative exploration of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), and several approaches in exploratory data analysis, which involve looking at data from different angles. These non-parametric approaches to portfolio formulation included the Simugram™, variants of his Max-Median rule and Tukey weightings. The MaxMedian rule is nonproprietary and was designed for investors who wish to do their own investing on a laptop with the purchase of 20 stocks. Simugram™ is an empirical data-based paradigm for portfolio selection. The algorithm synchronizes the historical performance of stocks in a selection set. The information from Simugram™ is then used to develop a high return, low risk portfolio. US Patent 7,720,738 B2, May 18, 2010. The simulation-based data analysis challenges the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) and the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula, making Thompson an early critic of the hypothesis in financial economics. The research was funded by $10 million NSF grants awarded to Rice University in 2003 and 2008 for Vertical Integration of Research and Education in the Mathematical Sciences (VIGRE). Thompson was a long-term collaborator who united physicians and medical researchers in the Texas Medical Center

In mathematics, a graph polynomial is a graph invariant whose values are polynomials. Invariants of this type are studied in algebraic graph theory. Important graph polynomials include: The characteristic polynomial, based on the graph's adjacency matrix. The chromatic polynomial, a polynomial whose values at integer arguments give the number of colorings of the graph with that many colors. The dichromatic polynomial, a 2-variable generalization of the chromatic polynomial The flow polynomial, a polynomial whose values at integer arguments give the number of nowhere-zero flows with integer flow amounts modulo the argument. The (inverse of the) Ihara zeta function, defined as a product of binomial terms corresponding to certain closed walks in a graph. The Martin polynomial, used by Pierre Martin to study Euler tours The matching polynomials, several different polynomials defined as the generating function of the matchings of a graph. The reliability polynomial, a polynomial that describes the probability of remaining connected after independent edge failures The Tutte polynomial, a polynomial in two variables that can be defined (after a small change of variables) as the generating function of the numbers of connected components of induced subgraphs of the given graph, parameterized by the number of vertices in the subgraph.

Kabani or Kabanah () is a Syrian town in the Al-Haffah District in Latakia Governorate. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Kabani had a population of 902 in the 2004 census. During the Syrian Civil War In 2016, Kabani was under the control of the Free Syrian Army's 1st Coastal Division. It witnessed over a dozen consecutive military attacks (2015–16 Latakia offensive and 2016 Latakia offensive) to control it by the Syrian Army, since it is one of the highest points in Jabal al-Akrad, that overlooks the Al-Ghab Plains, and from where the rebels still had the ability to shell government strongholds like Qardaha. Despite numerous attempts by the Syrian army to take the city, rebels have succeeded in countering every Syrian army attack, until the latest offensive from 31 May 2020. In January 2016 at the very latest Kabani became a jihadi stronghold after the fall of Salma to the Syrian Army. From 2017 on, the town was under the control of the Salafi jihadist groups Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham and the Turkistan Islamic Party. On May 19, 2019, these groups alleged that the Syrian government had released chlorine gas on their fighting forces in the town. According to them, four militants were wounded and taken to a hospital in the nearby rebel stronghold of Jisr al-Shughur, where they were treated. In February 2021, the jihadis were subjected to air strikes that were not reported in western media. References Populated places in al-Haffah District Towns in Syria

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science%20and%20technology%20of%20the%20Yuan%20dynasty
During the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368) of China, many scientific and technological advancements were made in areas such as mathematics, medicine, printing technology, and gunpowder warfare. Mathematics Advances in polynomial algebra were made by mathematicians during the Yuan era. The mathematician Zhu Shijie (1249–1314) solved simultaneous equations with up to four unknowns using a rectangular array of coefficients, equivalent to modern matrices. Zhu used a method of elimination to reduce the simultaneous equations to a single equation with only one unknown. His method is described in the Jade Mirror of the Four Unknowns, written in 1303. The opening pages contain a diagram of Pascal's triangle. The summation of a finite arithmetic series is also covered in the book. Guo Shoujing applied mathematics to the construction of calendars. He was one of the first mathematicians in China to work on spherical trigonometry. Gou derived a cubic interpolation formula for his astronomical calculations. His calendar, the Shoushi Li (授時暦) or Calendar for Fixing the Seasons, was disseminated in 1281 as the official calendar of the Yuan dynasty. The calendar may have been influenced solely by the work of Song dynasty astronomer Shen Kuo or possibly by the work of Arab astronomers. There are no explicit signs of Muslim influences in the Shoushi calendar, but Yuan emperors were known to be interested in Muslim calendars. Mathematical knowledge from the Middle East was introduced to China, and Muslim astronomers brought Arabic numerals to China in the 13th century. Medicine The physicians of the Yuan imperial court came from diverse cultures. Healers were divided into non-Mongol physicians called otachi and traditional Mongol shamans. The Mongols characterized otachi doctors by their use of herbal remedies, which was distinguished from the spiritual cures of Mongol shamanism. Physicians received official support from the Yuan government and were given special legal privileges. Kublai (Emperor Shizu) created the Imperial Academy of Medicine to manage medical treatises and the education of new doctors. Confucian scholars were attracted to the medical profession because it ensured a high income and medical ethics were compatible with Confucian virtues. The Chinese medical tradition of the Yuan dynasty consisted of "Four Great Schools" that were inherited from the Jin dynasty. All four schools were based on the same intellectual foundation, but advocated different theoretical approaches toward medicine. Under the Mongols, the practice of Chinese medicine spread to other parts of the empire. Ethnic Han physicians were brought along military campaigns by the Mongols as they expanded towards the west. Chinese medical techniques such as acupuncture, moxibustion, pulse diagnosis, and various herbal drugs and elixirs were transmitted westward to the Middle East and the rest of the empire. Several medical advances were made in the Yuan period. The physician Wei Yilin (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alireza%20Mashaghi
Alireza Mashaghi is a physician-scientist and biophysicist at Leiden University. He is known for his contributions to single-molecule analysis of chaperone assisted protein folding, molecular topology and medical systems biophysics and bioengineering. He is a leading advocate for interdisciplinary research and education in medicine and pharmaceutical sciences. Mashaghi made the first observation of direct chaperone involvement during folding of a protein, using a single molecule force spectroscopy method. This work which has been published in Nature solved a long-standing puzzle in biology. In 2017, he reported a new model for chaperone DnaK function and made a discovery that, according to Ans Hekkenberg, "overturns the decades-old textbook model of action for a protein that is central for many processes in living cells". He and his co-workers found that chaperone DnaK can recognise natively folded protein parts and thereby promotes protein folding directly. Inspired by single-molecule analysis of biopolymers, Mashaghi and his team developed a topology framework, termed as circuit topology, which enabled studying folded molecular chains, beyond what knot theory can offer. The approach allows for topological barcoding of proteins and cellular genomes for medical applications. Mashaghi also contributed to others areas in biophysics and bioengineering including membrane biophysics, membrane based lab-on-a-chip biosensing, and organ-on-a-chip technology. In particular, the Mashaghi team was one of the first to introduce Organ Chip technology to the field of virology. His team engineered the first chip-based disease model for Ebola hemorrhagic shock syndrome, and later extended the applicability of the platform to various viral haemorrhagic syndromes. Ebola and similar viruses pathologically alter the mechanics of human cells, which is recapitulated in organ chip models. Moreover, the Mashaghi team developed optical tweezers and acoustic force spectroscopy based assays to probe such mechanical alterations at the single cell level. Mashaghi is also active in interdisciplinary research in ophthalmology, immunopathology and medicine. His main contributions were in the areas of ocular inflammation and immunomodulation. In 2017, he and his co-workers at Harvard developed an immunotherapy strategy to improve survival of high-risk cornea grafts. Together with his co-workers, he contributed to the use of stem cell technology and omics technology in ophthalmology and medicine. Mashaghi and his co-workers were among the first to use stem cells to reprogram innate immune cells, including neutrophil and macrophages. Additionally, his lab was the first to measure human macrophage mechanics and metabolome using single-cell approaches. Finally, in their research, Mashaghi and his co-workers are linking statistical physics and medical diagnostics; this unprecedented link between physics and medicine may allow for early and efficient diagnosis of certain disea

In algebraic geometry, Max Noether's theorem on curves is a theorem about curves lying on algebraic surfaces, which are hypersurfaces in P3, or more generally complete intersections. It states that, for degree at least four for hypersurfaces, the generic such surface has no curve on it apart from the hyperplane section. In more modern language, the Picard group is infinite cyclic, other than for a short list of degrees. This is now often called the Noether-Lefschetz theorem. Algebraic geometry

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial%20mapping
In algebra, a polynomial map or polynomial mapping between vector spaces over an infinite field k is a polynomial in linear functionals with coefficients in k; i.e., it can be written as where the are linear functionals and the are vectors in W. For example, if , then a polynomial mapping can be expressed as where the are (scalar-valued) polynomial functions on V. (The abstract definition has an advantage that the map is manifestly free of a choice of basis.) When V, W are finite-dimensional vector spaces and are viewed as algebraic varieties, then a polynomial mapping is precisely a morphism of algebraic varieties. One fundamental outstanding question regarding polynomial mappings is the Jacobian conjecture, which concerns the sufficiency of a polynomial mapping to be invertible.

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, an opetope, a portmanteau of "operation" and "polytope", is a shape that captures higher-dimensional substitutions. It was introduced by John C.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouquet%20graph
In mathematics, a bouquet graph , for an integer parameter , is an undirected graph with one vertex and edges, all of which are self-loops. It is the graph-theoretic analogue of the topological bouquet, a space of circles joined at a point. When the context of graph theory is clear, it can be called more simply a bouquet. Although bouquets have a very simple structure as graphs, they are of some importance in topological graph theory because their graph embeddings can still be non-trivial. In particular, every cellularly embedded graph can be reduced to an embedded bouquet by a partial duality applied to the edges of any spanning tree of the graph, or alternatively by contracting the edges of any spanning tree. In graph-theoretic approaches to group theory, every Cayley–Serre graph (a variant of Cayley graphs with doubled edges) can be represented as the covering graph of a bouquet.

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a globular set is a higher-dimensional generalization of a directed graph.

The letters "s", "t" stand for "source" and "target" and one imagines consists of directed edges at level n. A variant of the notion was used by Grothendieck to introduce the notion of an ∞-groupoid. Extending Grothendieck's work, gave a definition of a weak ∞-category in terms of globular sets. References Further reading Dimitri Ara. On the homotopy theory of Grothendieck ∞ -groupoids. J.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph%20Kaufmann
Ralph Martin Kaufmann (born August 4, 1969) is a German mathematician working in the United States. Career Kaufmann studied mathematics, physics and philosophy at the University of Bonn. He obtained a master's degree in Physics in 1994 under the supervision of Werner Nahm and a master's degree in philosophy under the supervision of Rainer Stuhlmann-Laeisz in 1996. His doctoral studies were carried out at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics under the supervision of Yuri Manin, and he graduated summa cum laude from University of Bonn in 1997 with a thesis entitled "The geometry of the moduli space of pointed curves, the tensor product in the theory of Frobenius manifolds and the explicit Künneth formula in quantum cohomology". He remained at the Max Planck Institute for one year after his graduation as a researcher before moving to the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques for a year with a Marie Curie Fellowship from the European Union. In 1999 Kaufmann moved to the United States, where he has held several positions. He arrived at his current institution, Purdue University, in 2007 as an associate professor, being promoted to full professor in 2012. Kaufmann has been a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, and has held visiting positions at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques, the Mittag-Leffler Institute in Stockholm, the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge, and the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley, California. Research Kaufmann's research has covered different areas of mathematics and theoretical physics. After briefly working on the Virasoro algebra, he started to work on the quantum cohomology of a product and the Künneth formula, obtaining results on explicit formulas and global results. In collaboration with Yuri Manin and Don Zagier he started the study of higher Weil–Peterson volumes, later continued by Losef–Manin and Maryam Mirzakhani. Kaufmann then started to study stringy and mirror phenomena for orbifolds and singularities. This led to the invention of stringy K-theory. Kaufmann has also worked on string topology, invented by Moira Chas and Dennis Sullivan, and operad theory. Here he first proved a cyclic version of Pierre Deligne's conjecture in deformation theory and provided an extension of string topology to moduli spaces. More recently Kaufmann has introduced the notion of Feynman categories to give a common framework for various aspects of algebra, geometry, topology, and category theory. In mathematical physics, he has also studied the geometry of wire networks as well as periodic systems and topological insulators. In philosophy, he has recently worked on Hegel's theory of mathematics and on Friedrich Hölderlin. , eight graduate students have obtained their PhD under Kaufmann's supervision.

Dimple Creek (Kimples Creek) is a tributary of the Tohickon Creek in Haycock Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania in the United States. It is part of the Delaware River watershed. Statistics Dimple Creek's GNIS identification number is 1173286, its Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources identification number is 03174. It has a watershed of , and meets it confluence at Tohickon Creek's 19.90 river mile. Dimple Creek flows through Lake Towhee. Course Dimple Creek rises at an elevation of in the northern part of Haycock Township from an unnamed pond west northwest of Little Haycock Mountain. Flowing south, it receives a tributary from the left bank, then flows into Lake Towhee a lake formed by a dam in the creek. From there it flows to the southwest to its confluence with the Tohickon at the Levi Sheard Mill at an elevation of . The stream is , which results in an average slope of 16.45 feet per mile (3.35 meters per kilometer). Geology Appalachian Highlands Division Piedmont Province Gettysburg-Newark Lowland Section Diabase Dimple Creek lies in an intrusion of magma into the local Brunswick Formation in the Newark Lowland section or rock, part of the Piedmont Province of the Appalchian Highlands Division. About 200 million years ago, about the time of the Jurassic and the Triassic, the magma intruded an cooled to form diabase consisting of labradorite and augite, very highly resistant to erosion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis%20in%20Seychelles
Cannabis in Seychelles is illegal, with cultivation, possession and sale of the substance banned. Regardless of this, the controlled substance has seen continual use within Seychelles, with statistics indicating that more than a quarter of the nation's population are users of the drug, as well as use evident amongst adolescents. The drug is ingested in a variety of forms for medicinal or recreational use. Recently the fight for legalization of cannabis has included a petition calling for legalisation signed by 5–10% of the nation's population, and a court case ordering the government to allow medical use. Legislation and policy Current status Under the Misuse of Drugs Act, 2016, cannabis and its by-products are an illegal Class B drug. The offences relating to cannabis, as clarified within the include any person who purchases, possesses, or uses the drug, imports or exports the drug, cultivates it, possesses or purchases instruments, utensils or equipment intended to facilitate cultivation, and/or traffics cannabis in any quantity. The legislation states that regarding trafficking, if the person has been convicted of an offence of trafficking more than 1.5kg of cannabis or cannabis resin, the Court shall treat the offence as aggravated in nature. In terms of evidence and investigation, any individual who has been proven or presumed to possess 25 grams or more of cannabis in any form will be presumed to have intent to traffic the drug. Thus, the individual is liable to be investigated by the relevant legal officers of the Seychelles. The law also provides the ability to a police officer to stop and search an individual suspected of having possession of cannabis without a warrant. History The status of cannabis's illegality within the Seychelles initially found its basis in the laws of Mauritius. With the politicians of the time deciding to implement the 1882 legislation enacted within the Mauritius verbatim into the Seychelles legal system. In doing so, when Mauritius re-opened the cannabis trade from the years 1883 up until 1887, there was confusion regarding whether or not these changes in law had applied to the Seychelles. The most recent change to Seychelles' cannabis laws was the Misuse of Drugs Act, 2016. This legislation was passed by unanimous Assembly vote and replaced an act of 1990. The act sought to give more powers to fight drug trafficking and abuse and to make the investigation of drug-related offences and prosecution easier. The law also placed a substantial emphasis on the need to promote treatment, education, rehabilitation, recovery, and social reintegration of individuals suffering addiction. Other acts were also amended to allow the new act to be enforceable, including the Prisons Act and the Criminal Procedure Code. Minister for Home Affairs Charles Bastienne tabled the bill, and said that it took into account challenges such as the increasing numbers serving drug related prison sentences, which he considered worrying

Joachim Schwermer (26 May 1950, Kulmbach) is a German mathematician, specializing in number theory. Schwermer received his Abitur in 1969 at Aloisiuskolleg in Bad Godesberg and then studied mathematics at the University of Bonn. After graduating in 1974 with his Diplom, he received in 1977 his Promotion (Ph.D.) underi Günter Harder with thesis Eisensteinreihen und die Kohomologie von Kongruenzuntergruppen von . In 1982 he received his Habilitation from the University of Bonn. From 1986 he was a professor at the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt, then at the University of Düsseldorf, and finally in the 2000s at the University of Vienna. During the academic year 1980–1981 Schwermer was a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study. In 1987 he was awarded the Gay-Lussac-Humboldt-Prize. Schwermer's research deals with algebraic groups in number theory, arithmetic geometry, Lie groups, and L-functions. He has written essays on the history of mathematics, for example, about Helmut Hasse, Hermann Minkowski, and Emil Artin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich%20Hultsch
Friedrich Otto Hultsch (22 July 1833, Dresden – 6 April 1906, Dresden) was a German classical philologist and historian of mathematics in antiquity. Biography After graduating from the Dresden Kreuzschule, Friedrich Hultsch studied classical philology at the University of Leipzig from 1851 to 1855. After a probationary year at the Kreuzschule, he was employed in 1857 as a second Adjunkt at the Alte Nikolaischule in Leipzig. In 1858 he became a teacher at the Zwickau Gymnasium. In 1861 Hultsch was again employed at the Kreuzschule, where he was the rector from 1868 until his retirement in 1889. From 1879 to 1882 he also headed the newly founded Wettiner Gymnasium. Hultsch specialized in historical metrology and textual criticism concerning mathematical antiquity. His most important works are: Griechische und römische Metrologie (Berlin 1862; with a substantially expanded second edition in 1882); the edition of Scriptores metrologici graeci et romani (Leipzig 1864–1866, 2 volumes); the exposition and criticism of geometry and stereometry of Heron of Alexandria (Berlin 1864); the mathematical collection of Pappos (Berlin 1875–1878, 3 volumes); the writings of Autolycus of Pitane on the moving sphere, with Hultsch's history of the rise and fall of the belief in the fixed stars (Leipzig 1885); edition of De die natali by Censorinus (Leipzig 1867); edition of the history by Polybius (Berlin 1867–1872, 4 volumes). He wrote many articles on Greek mathematics in Pauly-Wissowa (e.g. Archimedes and Euclid). Hultsch died in 1906 in Dresden and was buried in the Trinitatisfriedhof. He was elected a member of the Saxon Academy of Sciences of Leipzig (1885) and a corresponding member of the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral%20optimization%20algorithm
In mathematics, the spiral optimization (SPO) algorithm is a metaheuristic inspired by spiral phenomena in nature. The first SPO algorithm was proposed for two-dimensional unconstrained optimization based on two-dimensional spiral models. This was extended to n-dimensional problems by generalizing the two-dimensional spiral model to an n-dimensional spiral model. There are effective settings for the SPO algorithm: the periodic descent direction setting and the convergence setting. Metaphor The motivation for focusing on spiral phenomena was due to the insight that the dynamics that generate logarithmic spirals share the diversification and intensification behavior. The diversification behavior can work for a global search (exploration) and the intensification behavior enables an intensive search around a current found good solution (exploitation). Algorithm The SPO algorithm is a multipoint search algorithm that has no objective function gradient, which uses multiple spiral models that can be described as deterministic dynamical systems. As search points follow logarithmic spiral trajectories towards the common center, defined as the current best point, better solutions can be found and the common center can be updated. The general SPO algorithm for a minimization problem under the maximum iteration (termination criterion) is as follows: 0) Set the number of search points and the maximum iteration number . 1) Place the initial search points and determine the center , ,and then set . 2) Decide the step rate by a rule. 3) Update the search points: 4) Update the center: where . 5) Set . If is satisfied then terminate and output . Otherwise, return to Step 2). Setting The search performance depends on setting the composite rotation matrix , the step rate , and the initial points . The following settings are new and effective. Setting 1 (Periodic Descent Direction Setting) This setting is an effective setting for high dimensional problems under the maximum iteration . The conditions on and together ensure that the spiral models generate descent directions periodically. The condition of works to utilize the periodic descent directions under the search termination . Set as follows: where is the identity matrix and is the zero vector. Place the initial points at random to satisfy the following condition: where . Note that this condition is almost all satisfied by a random placing and thus no check is actually fine. Set at Step 2) as follows: where a sufficiently small such as or . Setting 2 (Convergence Setting) This setting ensures that the SPO algorithm converges to a stationary point under the maximum iteration . The settings of and the initial points are the same with the above Setting 1. The setting of is as follows. Set at Step 2) as follows: where is an iteration when the center is newly updated at Step 4) and such as . Thus we have to add the following rules about to the Algorithm: •(Step 1

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex%20random%20vector
In probability theory and statistics, a complex random vector is typically a tuple of complex-valued random variables, and generally is a random variable taking values in a vector space over the field of complex numbers. If are complex-valued random variables, then the n-tuple is a complex random vector. Complex random variables can always be considered as pairs of real random vectors: their real and imaginary parts. Some concepts of real random vectors have a straightforward generalization to complex random vectors. For example, the definition of the mean of a complex random vector. Other concepts are unique to complex random vectors. Applications of complex random vectors are found in digital signal processing. Definition A complex random vector on the probability space is a function such that the vector is a real random vector on where denotes the real part of and denotes the imaginary part of . Cumulative distribution function The generalization of the cumulative distribution function from real to complex random variables is not obvious because expressions of the form make no sense. However expressions of the form make sense. Therefore, the cumulative distribution function of a random vector is defined as where . Expectation As in the real case the expectation (also called expected value) of a complex random vector is taken component-wise. Covariance matrix and pseudo-covariance matrix The covariance matrix (also called second central moment) contains the covariances between all pairs of components. The covariance matrix of an random vector is an matrix whose th element is the covariance between the i th and the j th random variables. Unlike in the case of real random variables, the covariance between two random variables involves the complex conjugate of one of the two. Thus the covariance matrix is a Hermitian matrix. The pseudo-covariance matrix (also called relation matrix) is defined replacing Hermitian transposition by transposition in the definition above. Properties The covariance matrix is a hermitian matrix, i.e. . The pseudo-covariance matrix is a symmetric matrix, i.e. . The covariance matrix is a positive semidefinite matrix, i.e. . Covariance matrices of real and imaginary parts By decomposing the random vector into its real part and imaginary part (i.e. ), the pair has a covariance matrix of the form: The matrices and can be related to the covariance matrices of and via the following expressions: Conversely: Cross-covariance matrix and pseudo-cross-covariance matrix The cross-covariance matrix between two complex random vectors is defined as: And the pseudo-cross-covariance matrix is defined as: Two complex random vectors and are called uncorrelated if . Independence Two complex random vectors and are called independent if where and denote the cumulative distribution functions of and as defined in and denotes their joint cumulative distribution function.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael%20A.%20B.%20Deakin
Michael Andrew Bernard Deakin (12 August 1939 – 5 August 2014) was an Australian mathematician and mathematics educator. He was known for his work as a writer and editor of Function, a mathematics magazine aimed at high school students, and as a biographer of ancient Greek mathematician Hypatia. He won the B. H. Neumann award of the Australian Mathematics Trust in 2003 for his "rich and varied commitment to mathematics enrichment". Education and career Deakin was born 12 August 1939. He grew up in Tasmania, and moved to Melbourne late in his high school education, taking a second matriculation year studying Latin at St Patrick's College, East Melbourne before entering the University of Melbourne in 1957. He completed a bachelor's degree with second-class honours in mathematics at Melbourne in 1961. He went on to earn a master's degree there in 1963, with a thesis on integral equations supervised by Russell Love. Deakin moved to the University of Chicago in 1963 for graduate study, and completed his Ph.D. in 1966. He became a lecturer at Monash University in Melbourne in 1967, but then in 1970 moved to Papua New Guinea to become reader-in-charge in the mathematics department of the Institute of Higher Technical Education. He returned to Monash as a senior reader in 1973. He earned a master's degree in education in 1975 from the University of Exeter, and remained at Monash for the rest of his career. He died on 5 August 2014, survived by his widow, Rayda, and the children of his first marriage. Function In 1976 a group of mathematicians at Monash University led by department chair Gordon Preston recognized the need for a journal focused on "mathematics as mathematicians themselves would recognise it, but addressed to secondary students". A secondary but explicit goal was to encourage young women in mathematics, as at that time their under-representation was already recognized. Later, over beers with friends from other disciplines, Deakin found the name for the new journal, Function. The journal was published from 1977 to 2004, and Deakin became a founding member of its editorial board, its most frequent contributor, and, for much of its existence, its editor-in-chief. Hypatia Deakin published the first of his several articles on Hypatia in 1992 in Function. In 2007, he published the book Hypatia of Alexandria: Mathematician and Martyr (Prometheus Books). Aimed at a popular audience, the book is "at least in part, a response to Maria Dzielska's Hypatia of Alexandria", which had focused on the historical and literary legacy of Hypatia at the expense of her mathematics, and which Deakin had previously reviewed for the American Mathematical Monthly. In his book, Deakin organizes the work of other scholars on Hypatia's mathematics, particularly relying on the earlier work of Wilbur Knorr, rather than formulating new theories on this aspect of Hypatia's work. He argues that, unlike some other neoplatonists of her time, Hypatia was not opposed to Chr

José Babini (10 May 1897, Buenos Aires – 18 May 1984, Buenos Aires) was an Argentine mathematician, engineer, and historian of mathematics and mathematical sciences. Babini worked for a construction company, where the owners recognized his mathematical talent and made it possible for him to pursue academic study. From 1918 he studied in Buenos Aires. In 1921 he graduated with a qualification to teach natural science and mathematics. In 1922 he received his degree as a civil engineer. Already in 1917 he contacted the well-known Spanish mathematician Julio Rey Pastor. Instead of working as a civil engineer, Babini taught mathematics at the Faculty for Industrial Chemistry of the Universidad Nacional del Litoral in Rosario. There he introduced new methods of numerical analysis and was considered a leading Argentine expert in this field. He then taught at the Faculty of Sciences of Education (Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación) in Paraná, Entre Ríos and at the Colegio Nacional y la Escuela Industrial. When Aldo Mieli in 1938 came from Paris to Argentina, he and Babini founded at the Universidad Nacional del Litoral in Rosario the Instituto de Historia y Filosofía de la Ciencia (with the support of Rey Pastor). The Instituto existed until 1943. Babini was an editor for the journal Archeion (founded by Mieli in 1919 with the name Archivio di Storia della Scienza) and with Mieli edited the series Panorama general de historia del ciencia in 12 volumes. In this series, Babini wrote, with Desiderio Papp, El siglo de iluminismo on the exact sciences in the 19th century (volume number 8 of the series). He was a major organizer of science in Argentina and a member of the national research council CONICET. From 1955 to 1966 he was the dean of the Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales of the National University in Buenos Aires. In 1957 he was the rector and interim director of the newly founded Universidad Nacional del Nordeste. He also presided over Argentina's newly founded university publishing house EUDEBA (Editorial Universitaria de Buenos Aires). Babini was a member of the editorial board of Historical Studies in the Physical Sciences and was a co-founder of the journal Quipu: Revista Latinoamericana de Historia de las Ciencias y la Tecnología (based in Mexico City). He was Invited Speaker of the ICM in 1928 in Bologna. He was the author, co-author, or editor of numerous books (at least 70) and essays as well as translations. In particular, he also published the first books on the history of science as it developed in Argentina. Selected publications with J.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List%20object
In category theory, an abstract branch of mathematics, and in its applications to logic and theoretical computer science, a list object is an abstract definition of a list, that is, a finite ordered sequence. Formal definition Let C be a category with finite products and a terminal object 1. A list object over an object of C is: an object , a morphism : 1 → , and a morphism : × → such that for any object of with maps : 1 → and : × → , there exists a unique : → such that the following diagram commutes: where〈id, 〉denotes the arrow induced by the universal property of the product when applied to id (the identity on ) and . The notation * (à la Kleene star) is sometimes used to denote lists over . Equivalent definitions In a category with a terminal object 1, binary coproducts (denoted by +), and binary products (denoted by ×), a list object over can be defined as the initial algebra of the endofunctor that acts on objects by ↦ 1 + ( × ) and on arrows by ↦ [id1,〈id, 〉]. Examples In Set, the category of sets, list objects over a set are simply finite lists with elements drawn from . In this case, picks out the empty list and corresponds to appending an element to the head of the list. In the calculus of inductive constructions or similar type theories with inductive types (or heuristically, even strongly typed functional languages such as Haskell), lists are types defined by two constructors, nil and cons, which correspond to and , respectively. The recursion principle for lists guarantees they have the expected universal property. Properties Like all constructions defined by a universal property, lists over an object are unique up to canonical isomorphism. The object 1 (lists over the terminal object) has the universal property of a natural number object. In any category with lists, one can define the length of a list to be the unique morphism : → 1 which makes the following diagram commute: References See also Natural number object F-algebra Initial algebra Objects (category theory) Topos theory
