https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical%20projective%20space
In tropical geometry, a tropical projective space is the tropical analog of the classic projective space. Definition Given a module over the tropical semiring , its projectivization is the usual projective space of a module: the quotient space of the module (omitting the additive identity ) under scalar multiplication, omitting multiplication by the scalar additive identity 0: In the tropical setting, tropical multiplication is classical addition, with unit real number 0 (not 1); tropical addition is minimum or maximum (depending on convention), with unit extended real number (not 0), so it is clearer to write this using the extended real numbers, rather than the abstract algebraic units: Just as in the classical case, the standard -dimensional tropical projective space is defined as the quotient of the standard -dimensional coordinate space by scalar multiplication, with all operations defined coordinate-wise: Tropical multiplication corresponds to classical addition, so tropical scalar multiplication by corresponds to adding to all coordinates. Thus two elements of are identified if their coordinates differ by the same additive amount : Notes References Projective geometry Tropical geometry

Priscilla Harris Braislin Merrick (July 1838 – December 15, 1888) was the first mathematics professor at Vassar College. Early life Braislin was originally from Burlington, New Jersey, the eldest of six children. Her father was Catholic and her mother Quaker, but with five of her siblings she became a Baptist; one of her brothers, Edward Braislin (1846–1915), became a Baptist minister. Vassar She was hired around 1865 to teach mathematics at Vassar, within the Department of Mathematics, Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. When the head of the department, Charles Farrar, stepped down in 1874, Braislin became the chair of the newly formed Department of Mathematics, and appointed as an instructor of mathematics. In 1875 she was elected as professor of mathematics. She was the first professor in the department and the first female professor at Vassar, in addition to being (after Susan Jane Cunningham at Swarthmore College in 1871) one of the first female professors of mathematics in the US. She resigned in 1887, to marry Timothy Merrick, a wealthy businessman in Holyoke, Massachusetts. She died of heart disease at her Holyoke home the following year. On December 18, 1888, her funeral was held in Holyoke. Legacy The Priscilla Braislin School for Girls in Bordentown, New Jersey was founded in 1889 and operated by two of Braislin's sisters, Alice G. Braislin and Mary Braislin Cooke.

HegartyMaths is an educational subscription tool used by schools in the United Kingdom. It is sometimes used as a replacement for general mathematics homework tasks. Its creator, Colin Hegarty, was the UK Teacher of the Year in 2015 and shortlisted for the Varkey Foundation's Global Teacher Prize in 2016. Usage HegartyMaths covers a variety of topics and has 943 tasks to complete. A task includes an educational video with an explanation and examples on the topic. Afterwards, there is a quiz to complete, containing topic specific questions. The site is regularly updated and more topics added to keep up with the GCSE mathematics curriculum. Students can complete tasks by themselves, or teachers can assign these tasks to students to complete as homework or for revision purposes and then track the student's progress. History HegartyMaths was created by co-founders and teachers Colin Hegarty and Brian Arnold. In 2011 they started to make maths videos on YouTube to support their own classes with maths homework and revision. Since the videos were freely available on YouTube, students from all over the country and the world started using the videos too. In 2012 Colin won £15,000 of funding from education charity SHINE, through its Let Teachers SHINE competition, to make a website to host the videos and make more content. The original website, launched on 12 July 2013, was called mathswebsite.com. It was built to contain free maths videos to assist students in revision and is still accessible today. In February 2016, a new site was launched: HegartyMaths.com. In 2019, Colin Hegarty sold HegartyMaths to Sparx (a company selling revision GCSE packages), for an undisclosed sum. Colin became part of the leadership team for Sparx and continued to lead development on HegartyMaths.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation%20surface%20%28differential%20geometry%29
In differential geometry a translation surface is a surface that is generated by translations: For two space curves with a common point , the curve is shifted such that point is moving on . By this procedure curve generates a surface: the translation surface. If both curves are contained in a common plane, the translation surface is planar (part of a plane). This case is generally ignored. Simple examples: Right circular cylinder: is a circle (or another cross section) and is a line. The elliptic paraboloid can be generated by and (both curves are parabolas). The hyperbolic paraboloid can be generated by (parabola) and (downwards open parabola). Translation surfaces are popular in descriptive geometry and architecture, because they can be modelled easily. In differential geometry minimal surfaces are represented by translation surfaces or as midchord surfaces (s. below). The translation surfaces as defined here should not be confused with the translation surfaces in complex geometry. Parametric representation For two space curves and with the translation surface can be represented by: (TS) and contains the origin. Obviously this definition is symmetric regarding the curves and . Therefore, both curves are called generatrices (one: generatrix). Any point of the surface is contained in a shifted copy of and resp.. The tangent plane at is generated by the tangentvectors of the generatrices at this point, if these vectors are linearly independent. If the precondition is not fulfilled, the surface defined by (TS) may not contain the origin and the curves . But in any case the surface contains shifted copies of any of the curves as parametric curves and respectively. The two curves can be used to generate the so called corresponding midchord surface. Its parametric representation is (MCS) Helicoid as translation surface and midchord surface A helicoid is a special case of a generalized helicoid and a ruled surface. It is an example of a minimal surface and can be represented as a translation surface. The helicoid with the parametric representation has a turn around shift (German: Ganghöhe) . Introducing new parameters such that and a positive real number, one gets a new parametric representation which is the parametric representation of a translation surface with the two identical (!) generatrices and The common point used for the diagram is . The (identical) generatrices are helices with the turn around shift which lie on the cylinder with the equation . Any parametric curve is a shifted copy of the generatrix (in diagram: purple) and is contained in the right circular cylinder with radius , which contains the z-axis. The new parametric representation represents only such points of the helicoid that are within the cylinder with the equation . From the new parametric representation one recognizes, that the helicoid is a midchord surface, too: where and are two identical generatrices

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound%20of%205-cube%20and%205-orthoplex
In 5-dimensional geometry, the 5-cube 5-orthoplex compound is a polytope compound composed of a regular 5-cube and dual regular 5-orthoplex. A compound polytope is a figure that is composed of several polytopes sharing a common center. The outer vertices of a compound can be connected to form a convex polytope called the convex hull. The compound is a facetting of the convex hull. In 5-polytope compounds constructed as dual pairs, the hypercells and vertices swap positions and cells and edges swap positions. Because of this the number of hypercells and vertices are equal, as are cells and edges. Mid-edges of the 5-cube cross mid-cell in the 16-cell, and vice versa. It can be seen as the 5-dimensional analogue of a compound of cube and octahedron. Construction The 42 Cartesian coordinates of the vertices of the compound are. 10: (±2, 0, 0, 0, 0), (0, ±2, 0, 0, 0), (0, 0, ±2, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0, ±2, 0), (0, 0, 0, 0, ±2) 32: (±1, ±1, ±1, ±1, ±1) The convex hull of the vertices makes the dual of rectified 5-orthoplex. The intersection of the 5-cube and 5-orthoplex compound is the uniform birectified 5-cube: = ∩ . Images The compound can be seen in projection as the union of the two polytope graphs. The convex hull as the dual of the rectified 5-orthoplex will have the same vertices, but different edges. See also Compound of tesseract and 16-cell References External links Polyhedral compounds

Jack A. Thorne (born 13 June 1987) is a British mathematician working in number theory and arithmetic aspects of the Langlands Program. He specialises in algebraic number theory. Education Thorne read mathematics at Trinity Hall, Cambridge. He completed his PhD with Benedict Gross and Richard Taylor at Harvard University in 2012. Career and research Thorne was a Clay Research Fellow. Currently, he is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, where he has been since 2015, and is also a fellow at Trinity Hall, Cambridge. Thorne's paper on adequate representations significantly extended the applicability of the Taylor-Wiles method. His paper on deformations of reducible representations generalized previous results of Chris Skinner and Andrew Wiles from two-dimensional representations to n-dimensional representations. With Gebhard Böckle, Michael Harris, and Chandrashekhar Khare, he has applied techniques from modularity lifting to the Langlands conjectures over function fields. With Kai-Wen Lan, Harris, and Richard Taylor, Thorne constructed Galois representations associated to non-self dual regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic forms for GL(n) over CM fields. Thorne's 2015 joint work with Khare on potential automorphy and Leopoldt's conjecture has led to a proof of a potential version of the modularity conjecture for elliptic curves over imaginary quadratic fields. In joint work with James Newton, Thorne has established symmetric power functoriality for all holomorphic modular forms. Awards and honors Thorne was awarded the Whitehead Prize in 2017. In 2018, Thorne was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro. He was awarded the 2018 SASTRA Ramanujan Prize for his contributions to the field of mathematics. He shared the prize with Yifeng Liu. In April 2020 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. In 2020 he received the EMS Prize of the European Mathematical Society, in 2021 he was awarded a New Horizons in Mathematics Prize and in 2022 he was awarded the Adams Prize. For 2023 he received the Cole Prize in Number Theory of the AMS.

The Einstein Institute of Mathematics () is a centre for scientific research in mathematics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, founded in 1925 with the opening of the university. A leading research institute, the institute's faculty has included recipients of the Nobel Prize, Fields Medal, Wolf Prize, and Israel Prize. History About a year before the official inauguration of the Hebrew University, a Jewish-American philanthropist, Philip Wattenberg, endowed the new university with $190,000 (equivalent to $ million in ) for a research institute in the name of theoretical physicist Albert Einstein. The Einstein Mathematics-Physics Institute in 1925. Its inaugural lecture was given by Edmund Landau (on problems from number theory), the first lecture in higher mathematics to be delivered in modern Hebrew. The Institute moved to the Philip Wattenburg Building in 1928, designed by Benjamin Chaikin and Sir Frank Mears, where it remained until the Hebrew University lost access to Mount Scopus in 1948. Edmund Landau served as the university's first Professor of Mathematics, and negotiated the transfer of Felix Klein's private library from Göttingen to Jerusalem, which served as the basis for the new mathematical library in Jerusalem. Other early faculty members included Binyamin Amirà, Abraham Fraenkel, and Michael Fekete. A number of researchers arrived at the institute during the rise of the Nazi regime in Germany, such as Issai Schur and Otto Toeplitz. The Israel Journal of Mathematics was founded at the institute in 1963 as a continuation of the Bulletin of the Research Council of Israel (Section F). A division for computer science was formed within the institute in 1969, which became the independent Institute for Computer Science in 1992.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogsbite.org
DogsBite.org is a nonprofit organization that publishes accounts of and compiles statistics of dog bite related fatalities throughout the United States, victim testimonies, an overview of breed-specific legislation within the United States, and advocates for victims of dog bites by promoting breed-specific legislation as a means to reduce serious dog attacks. The organization provides statistics and information to news organizations and has filed amicus briefs in court cases related to breed-specific legislation. The organization has been criticized of publishing misleading or inaccurate information. History and activities After being injured by a pit bull during an attack while jogging on June 17, 2007, DogsBite.org founder Colleen Lynn researched dog bites and attacks, and anonymously launched Dogsbite.org in October 2007. Shortly after, Lynn's identity was revealed and she received harassment, including the threat of a lawsuit. DogsBite.org documents and publishes accounts dog bite related fatalities from media reports. The organization tracks various factors for each attack incident including information about the attacking dog being from a shelter or rescue adoption. DogsBite.org wrote an amicus curiae for the case Tracey v. Solesky, 50 A. 3d 1075 - Md: Court of Appeals 2012, and in February 2013 Coleen Lynn testified to the Judicial Proceedings Committee of the Maryland Senate in opposition of Senate Bill 247. DogsBite.org's website says that it is "genetics that leaves pit bull victims with permanent and disfiguring injuries.", and advocates for breed-specific legislation on a genetic basis. DogsBite's position on breed-specific legislation (BSL) is that it is effective at preventing attacks and injuries, which they say the reduced population numbers of affected breeds lowers overall biting incidents. They advocate that BSL should be enacted at the state level in all 50 states. Their website provides information on pit bull regulations in military housing and in over 900 cities. Lynn says they support laws that specifically regulate pit bulls because of the number of fatalities caused, the nature of the injuries, and the severity of the attacks; she also states that even though pit bulls are a minority of dogs owned, they were responsible for 64% of the deaths in 2014. The American Veterinary Medical Association, and other organizations have published positions opposing breed-specific legislation (BSL). In her book Pit Bull: The Battle over an American Icon, author Bronwen Dickey writes that DogsBite.org accuses several organizations of being "co-opted by the 'pit bull lobby', a shady cabal that supporters of the site imply is financed by dogfighters." In an interview with Psychology Today, Dickey says "The site's founder is also contemptuous of people in the relevant sciences, including those at the AVMA, the CDC, the Animal Behavior Society, etc. She refers to them as 'science whores,' which alone is enough to discredit her claims

In mathematics, a polyhedral complex is a set of polyhedra in a real vector space that fit together in a specific way. Polyhedral complexes generalize simplicial complexes and arise in various areas of polyhedral geometry, such as tropical geometry, splines and hyperplane arrangements. Definition A polyhedral complex is a set of polyhedra that satisfies the following conditions: 1. Every face of a polyhedron from is also in . 2. The intersection of any two polyhedra is a face of both and . Note that the empty set is a face of every polyhedron, and so the intersection of two polyhedra in may be empty. Examples Tropical varieties are polyhedral complexes satisfying a certain balancing condition. Simplicial complexes are polyhedral complexes in which every polyhedron is a simplex. Voronoi diagrams. Splines. Fans A fan is a polyhedral complex in which every polyhedron is a cone from the origin. Examples of fans include: The normal fan of a polytope. The Gröbner fan of an ideal of a polynomial ring. A tropical variety obtained by tropicalizing an algebraic variety over a valued field with trivial valuation. The recession fan of a tropical variety. References Polyhedra

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher%20Skinner
Christopher McLean Skinner (born June 4, 1972) is an American mathematician working in number theory and arithmetic aspects of the Langlands program. He specialises in algebraic number theory. Skinner was a Packard Foundation Fellow from 2001 to 2006, and was named an inaugural fellow of the American Mathematical Society in 2013. In 2015, he was named a Simons Investigator in Mathematics. He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid in 2006. Career Skinner graduated from the University of Michigan in 1993. After completing his PhD with Andrew Wiles in 1997, he moved to the University of Michigan as an assistant professor. Since 2006, he has been a Professor of Mathematics at the Princeton University. In joint work with Andrew Wiles, Skinner proved modularity results for residually reducible Galois representations. Together with Eric Urban, he proved many cases of Iwasawa–Greenberg main conjectures for a large class of modular forms. As a consequence, for a modular elliptic curve over the rational numbers, they prove that the vanishing of the Hasse–Weil L-function L(E, s) of E at s = 1 implies that the p-adic Selmer group of E is infinite. Combined with theorems of Gross–Zagier and Kolyvagin, this gave a conditional proof (on the Tate–Shafarevich conjecture) of the conjecture that E has infinitely many rational points if and only if L(E, 1) = 0, a (weak) form of the Birch–Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. These results were used (in joint work with Manjul Bhargava and Wei Zhang) to prove that a positive proportion of elliptic curves satisfy the Birch–Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic%20and%20separating%20vector
In mathematics, the notion of a cyclic and separating vector is important in the theory of von Neumann algebras, and in particular in Tomita–Takesaki theory. A related notion is that of a vector which is cyclic for a given operator. The existence of cyclic vectors is guaranteed by the Gelfand–Naimark–Segal (GNS) construction. Definitions Given a Hilbert space H and a linear space A of bounded linear operators in H, an element Ω of H is said to be cyclic for A if the linear space AΩ = {aΩ: a ∈ A} is norm-dense in H. The element Ω is said to be separating if aΩ = 0 with a in A implies a = 0. Any element Ω of H defines a semi-norm p on A by p(a) = ||aΩ||. Saying that Ω is separating is equivalent with saying that p is actually a norm. If Ω is cyclic for A then it is separating for the commutant A′, which is the von Neumann algebra of all bounded operators in H which commute with all operators of A. Indeed, if a belongs to A′ and satisfies aΩ = 0 then one has for all b in A that 0 = baΩ = abΩ. Because the set of bΩ with b in A is dense in H this implies that a vanishes on a dense subspace of H. By continuity this implies that a vanishes everywhere. Hence, Ω is separating for A′. The following stronger result holds if A is a *-algebra (an algebra which is closed under taking adjoints) and contains the identity operator 1. For a proof, see Proposition 5 of Part I, Chapter 1 of. Proposition If A is a *-algebra of bounded linear operators in H and 1 belongs to A then Ω is cyclic for A if and only if it is separating for the commutant A′. A special case occurs when A is a von Neumann algebra. Then a vector Ω which is cyclic and separating for A is also cyclic and separating for the commutant A′ Positive linear functionals A positive linear functional ω on a *-algebra A is said to be faithful if ω(a) = 0, where a is a positive element of A, implies a = 0. Every element Ω of H defines a positive linear functional ωΩ on a *-algebra A of bounded linear operators in H by the relation ωΩ(a) = (aΩ,Ω) for all a in A. If ωΩ is defined in this way and A is a C*-algebra then ωΩ is faithful if and only if the vector Ω is separating for A. Note that a von Neumann algebra is a special case of a C*-algebra. Proposition Let φ and ψ be elements of H which are cyclic for A. Assume that ωφ = ωψ. Then there exists an isometry U in the commutant A′ such that φ = Uψ. References Linear operators Operator theory

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy%20geometric%20spanner
In computational geometry, a greedy geometric spanner is an undirected graph whose distances approximate the Euclidean distances among a finite set of points in a Euclidean space. The vertices of the graph represent these points. The edges of the spanner are selected by a greedy algorithm that includes an edge whenever its two endpoints are not connected by a short path of shorter edges. The greedy spanner was first described in the PhD thesis of Gautam Das and conference paper and subsequent journal paper by Ingo Althöfer et al. These sources also credited Marshall Bern (unpublished) with the independent discovery of the same construction. Greedy geometric spanners have bounded degree, a linear total number of edges, and total weight close to that of the Euclidean minimum spanning tree. Although known construction methods for them are slow, fast approximation algorithms with similar properties are known. Construction The greedy geometric spanner is determined from an input consisting a set of points and a parameter . The goal is to construct a graph whose shortest path distances are at most times the geometric distances between pairs of points. It may be constructed by a greedy algorithm that adds edges one at a time to the graph, starting from an edgeless graph with the points as its vertices. All pairs of points are considered, in sorted (ascending) order by their distances, starting with the closest pair. For each pair of points, the algorithm tests whether the graph constructed so far already contains a path from to with length at most . If not, the edge with length is added to the graph. By construction, the resulting graph is a geometric spanner with stretch factor at most . A naive implementation of this method would take time on inputs with points. This is because the considerations for each of the pairs of points involve an instance of Dijkstra's algorithm to find a shortest path in a graph with edges. It uses space to store the sorted list of pairs of points. More careful algorithms can construct the same graph in time , or in space . A construction for a variant of the greedy spanner that uses graph clustering to quickly approximate the graph distances runs in time in Euclidean spaces of any bounded dimension, and can produce spanners with (approximately) the same properties as the greedy spanners. The same method can be extended to spaces with bounded doubling dimension. Properties The same greedy construction produces spanners in arbitrary metric spaces, but in Euclidean spaces it has good properties some of which do not hold more generally. The greedy geometric spanner in any metric space always contains the minimum spanning tree of its input, because the greedy construction algorithm follows the same insertion order of edges as Kruskal's algorithm for minimum spanning trees. If the greedy spanner algorithm and Kruskal's algorithm are run in parallel, considering the same pairs of vertices in the same order, each e

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotropy%20representation
In differential geometry, the isotropy representation is a natural linear representation of a Lie group, that is acting on a manifold, on the tangent space to a fixed point. Construction Given a Lie group action on a manifold M, if Go is the stabilizer of a point o (isotropy subgroup at o), then, for each g in Go, fixes o and thus taking the derivative at o gives the map By the chain rule, and thus there is a representation: given by . It is called the isotropy representation at o. For example, if is a conjugation action of G on itself, then the isotropy representation at the identity element e is the adjoint representation of .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lions%E2%80%93Magenes%20lemma
In mathematics, the Lions–Magenes lemma (or theorem) is the result in the theory of Sobolev spaces of Banach space-valued functions, which provides a criterion for moving a time derivative of a function out of its action (as a functional) on the function itself. Statement of the lemma Let X0, X and X1 be three Hilbert spaces with X0 ⊆ X ⊆ X1. Suppose that X0 is continuously embedded in X and that X is continuously embedded in X1, and that X1 is the dual space of X0. Denote the norm on X by || · ||X, and denote the action of X1 on X0 by . Suppose for some that is such that its time derivative . Then is almost everywhere equal to a function continuous from into , and moreover the following equality holds in the sense of scalar distributions on : The above equality is meaningful, since the functions are both integrable on . See also Aubin–Lions lemma Notes It is important to note that this lemma does not extend to the case where is such that its time derivative for . For example, the energy equality for the 3-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations is not known to hold for weak solutions, since a weak solution is only known to satisfy and (where is a Sobolev space, and is its dual space, which is not enough to apply the Lions–Magnes lemma (one would need , but this is not known to be true for weak solutions).

Amanda L. Folsom (born 1979) is an American mathematician specializing in analytic number theory and its applications in combinatorics. She is a professor of mathematics at Amherst College, where she chairs the department of mathematics and statistics. Education and career Folsom graduated from the University of Chicago with honors in mathematics in 2001. She completed her Ph.D. in 2006 at the University of California, Los Angeles. Her dissertation, Modular Units, was supervised by William Duke. After postdoctoral research at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics from 2006 to 2007, and at the University of Wisconsin–Madison from 2007 to 2010, she joined the Yale University mathematics faculty in 2010. She moved to Amherst College in 2014. In 2018–2019 she was a von Neumann Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study. Contributions With Ken Ono, Jan Hendrik Bruinier, and Zach Kent, Folsom participated in the discovery of a fractal structure in the partition function that allows any particular value of the function to be computed exactly by a finite formula. Folsom and Ono are the namesakes of the Folsom–Ono grid, constructed from two sequences of Poincaré series that define weak harmonic Maass forms and modular forms. The coefficients of these series can be arranged in a two-dimensional grid, and in a 2008 paper, Folsom and Ono conjectured that the values in this grid are all integers. This conjecture was later proven by others. Folsom is also known for her research with Ono and R. C. Rhoades refining results of Srinivasa Ramanujan on mock modular forms. With Kathrin Bringmann, Ken Ono, and Larry Rolen, Folsom is one of the authors of the book Harmonic Maass Forms and Mock Modular Forms: Theory and Applications (Colloquium Publications 64, American Mathematical Society, 2018). Recognition Folsom is the winner of the 2021 Mary P. Dolciani Prize for Excellence in Research, given by the American Mathematical Society. The award was for "her outstanding record of research in analytic and algebraic number theory, with applications to combinatorics and Lie theory, for her work with undergraduate students, and for her service to the profession, including her work to promote success of women in mathematics". Her book Harmonic Maass Forms and Mock Modular Forms won the 2018 Prose Award for Best Scholarly Book in Mathematics from the Association of American Publishers.

The flora of Nepal is one of the richest in the world due to the diverse climate, topology and geography of the country. Research undertaken in the late 1970s and early 1980s documented 5067 species of which 5041 were angiosperms and the remaining 26 species were gymnosperms. The Terai area has hardwood, bamboo, palm, and sal trees. Notable plants include the garden angelica, Luculia gratissima, Meconopsis villosa, and Persicaria affinis. However, according to ICOMOS checklist (as of 2006), in the protected sites, there are 2,532 species of vascular plants under 1,034 genera and 199 families. The variation in figures is attributed to inadequate floral coverage filed studies. Some of the plants contain medicinal values. It contains certain chemical which is used to heal wound by There are 400 species of vascular plants which are endemic to Nepal. Of these, two in particular are orchids Pleione coronaria and Oreorchis porphyranthes. The most popular endemic plant of Nepal is rhododendron (arboreum) which in Nepali language is called lali guras. Human consumption 93% of human diet depend upon plants and remaining 7% of food rely on animals that directly or indirectly depends upon plants. Nepalese people consume plants according to the geographical structure of Nepal. Human consume seed, root, whole plants, flower as their food. Seeds Seeds consumed in Nepal usually are: Wheat Rice Barley Buckwheat Oats Maize Chickpea Pumpkin seed Millet Leaves Leaves consumed in Nepal usually includes: Cabbage Spinach Mustard leaves Lettuce Mint Fruits Fruits of Nepal usually includes: Banana Apple Mango Guava Tomato Roots Some of the roots consumed as food in Nepal are: Potato Carrot Turnip Radish Beetroot Medical usage Plants were the main source of therapy till the middle of the 19th century. More than 50% of world population depends on traditional medicine. There are between 1600 and 1900 plant species present in Nepal, and a large variety of them are frequently used in traditional medical practices. These plants are used for their medical benefits and have a profound cultural impact on the nation. The oldest repository that is known to record the medicinal plants used in the Himalayas is known as Rigveda (4500 BC and 1600 BC), which explained the medical usage of 67 plants. The Ayurveda (the foundation of science of life and the art of healing of Hindu culture) explain the therapeutic properties of 1200 plants.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucus%20for%20Women%20in%20Statistics
The Caucus for Women in Statistics is a professional society for women in statistics. It was founded in 1971, following discussions in 1969 and 1970 at the annual meetings of the American Statistical Association, with Donna Brogan as its first president. The Governing Council is the main governing body of the Caucus.  The Council consists of the President, President-Elect, Past President, Past Past President, Executive Director (ex-officio), Treasurer, Secretary, Membership Chair, Program Committee Chair, Communications Committee Chair, Professional Development Committee Chair, Chair of Liaisons with other organizations and the Chair of Country Representatives. The President-Elect, President, Past President, Secretary, and Treasurer constitute the Executive Committee of the Governing Council. Caucus governance is described in the Constitution and Bylaws. Purpose The purpose of the Caucus is to assist in teaching, hiring, and advancing the careers of women in statistics, removing barriers to women in statistics, encourage the application of statistics to women's issues, and improve the representation of women in professional organizations for statisticians. CWS envisions a world where women in the profession of statistics have equal opportunity and access to influence policies and decisions in workplaces, governments, and communities. The organization's mission is to advance the careers of women statisticians through advocacy, providing resources and learning opportunities, increasing their professional participation and visibility, and promoting and assessing research that impacts women statisticians. Related organizations An independent society, CWS works with all statistical professional societies, including the American Statistical Association (ASA), Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS), Statistical Society of Canada, (SSC), and International Statistical Institutes (ISI). For example, CWS has a close tie with the ASA and participates in the Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM), run by the ASA and cosponsored by IMS, SSC and other professional societies, where it is a sponsor of the Gertrude M. Cox Scholarship. The Caucus is a "sister organization" to the Association for Women in Mathematics, which was founded at the same time as the Caucus. Activities The Caucus publishes a newsletter and organizes events at major statistical meetings. Since 2001, its activities have also included jointly sponsoring the Florence Nightingale David Award with the Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies. This is "the only international award in statistical sciences ... that is restricted to women".
