Instabilities in compact planetary systems are generically driven by chaotic dynamics. This implies that an instability time measured through direct N-body integration is not exact, but rather represents a single draw from a distribution of equally valid chaotic trajectories. In order to characterize the "errors" on ...
We study the effect of diffuse intracluster light on the critical surface mass density estimated from photometric redshifts of lensing source galaxies, and the resulting bias in a weak lensing measurement of galaxy cluster mass. Under conservative assumptions, we find the bias to be negligible for imaging surveys lik...
The Dukes of Hazzard is quite an achievement – a $53m film that's worse than any given episode of a downmarket 25-year old TV show. The plot is serviceable enough but the mindless fun is rarely to be found and the casting is pretty atrocious: Johnny Knoxville is more passenger than protagonist, M.C. Gainey's Sheriff Ro...
MichaelG> The past three POTUSs were the ones who truly set our country backwards. All of the deals with NK, Iran, China, Mexico, Iraq and Afghanistan were all major things that set the US backwards in more than one way. Clinto, could have had eliminated Osama Bin Laden in the Sudan and NK; Bush, took us into Iraq a...
While traveling by train, a woman (Stéphane Excoffier) mistakenly gets out in a remote station when the train stops in the middle of the night. Sooner she finds that a weird lonely pointsman (Jim van der Woude) that does not speak her language is the only person in that area and that that was the last train in that tra...
A precursor to "Citizen Kane" in its analysis of the life of a just deceased tycoon, here reviewed by his faithful secretary in a series of interlocking flashbacks. In Spencer Tracy's 15th film he already looks middle-aged even in the scenes where he is meant to be young!<br /><br />A little silent-screen type emoting ...
An overpriced piece of junk! You're paying for the POLARIS name only! If you think you're getting a pool cleaner where you can just let it run to keep your pool constantly clean- FORGET IT! You have to baby sit this thing. It constantly gets stuck in corners, it runs around on its side for hours-picking up nothing, it...
We analyze the effect of time dependent external field on non-Markovian migration described by the continuous time random walk (CTRW) approach. The rigorous method of treating the problem is proposed which is based on the Markovian representations of the CTRW approach and field modulation. The method is applied to th...
I guess it wasn't entirely the filmmaker's fault though. The film suffered from the unimaginably stupid decision to tell Clayton Moore (who had done the role in the 1950's and was the Lone Ranger us old folks grew up with) he couldn't wear the mask in public. Now mind you, the poor guy wasn't making all that much money...
The other top NDP Leadership Candidate was Farnworth, who the Conflict Commissioner concluded had been influenced by Glen Clark into giving a Casino Licence to a Motorcycle gang. The NDP was the best thing the BC Liberals had going for them in 2013, sad to say. The Forensic Audit of the Nanaimo Commonwealth Criminal ...
RNNs and their variants have been widely adopted for image captioning. In RNNs, the production of a caption is driven by a sequence of latent states. Existing captioning models usually represent latent states as vectors, taking this practice for granted. We rethink this choice and study an alternative formulation, na...
Capsule Networks (CapsNet) use the Softmax function to convert the logits of the routing coefficients into a set of normalized values that signify the assignment probabilities between capsules in adjacent layers. We show that the use of Softmax prevents capsule layers from forming optimal couplings between lower and ...
We present the first detailed study of the properties (temperatures, gravities, and masses) of the NGC 6791 white dwarf population. This unique stellar system is both one of the oldest (8 Gyr) and most metal-rich ([Fe/H] ~ 0.4) open clusters in our Galaxy, and has a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) that exhibits both a ...
Why do some economic activities agglomerate more than others? And, why does the agglomeration of some economic activities continue to increase despite recent developments in communication and transportation technologies? In this paper, we present evidence that complex economic activities concentrate more in large cit...
This paper reviews the scientific support for a ballistic pressure wave radiating outward from a penetrating projectile and causing injury and incapacitation. This phenomenon is known colloquially as "hydrostatic shock." The idea apparently originates with Col. Frank Chamberlin, a World War II trauma surgeon and woun...
We present measurements of the near-infrared brightness of Io's hot spots derived from 2-5 micron imaging with adaptive optics on the Keck and Gemini N telescopes. The data were obtained on 271 nights between August 2013 and the end of 2018, and include nearly 1000 detections of over 75 unique hot spots. The 100 obse...
Outlined in: Apartheid, Guns and Money, by Hennie Van Vuuren, Jacana, 2017, suggests very deep structures of criminality in South Africa today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow; he is Director of Open Secrets and previously of the Institute for Justice and Reconciliation (IJR) and has also published together with P...
An infrared high-brightness light source based on supercontinuum generation through a SF6 photonic crystal fiber seeded by a Cr^4+:YAG femtosecond oscillator is developed for high resolution multiplex spectroscopy in the 1.5 $\mu$m region. Moreover, a multiplex high resolution approach based on a Cr^4+:YAG frequency ...
Poor quality control! New tire in plastic bag. Sidewall defective. Immediately noticeable as I started to mount on rim. BIG disappointment, losing riding time. This is supposed to be a premium tire! Interestingly, the second tire I ordered came in a separate shipment and was in a Continental OEM box. It was definitely...
We propose to learn a low-dimensional probabilistic deformation model from data which can be used for registration and the analysis of deformations. The latent variable model maps similar deformations close to each other in an encoding space. It enables to compare deformations, generate normal or pathological deforma...
In this paper we follow the general approach, proposed earlier by the first author, which is derived from the invariant theory field and provides a way of obtaining of the polynomial identities for any arbitrary polynomial family. We introduce the notion of Chebyshev derivations of the first and second kinds, which i...
We classify topological phases of non-Hermitian systems in the Altland-Zirnbauer classes with an additional reflection symmetry in all dimensions. By mapping the non-Hermitian system into an enlarged Hermitian Hamiltonian with an enforced chiral symmetry, our topological classification is thus equivalent to classifyi...
Let $p\in (1,\infty)$, $q\in[1,\infty)$, $\alpha\in [0,\infty)$ and $s$ be a non-negative integer. In this article, the authors introduce the John--Nirenberg-Campanato space $JN_{(p,q,s)_\alpha}(\mathcal{X})$, where $\mathcal{X}$ is ${\mathbb R}^n$ or any closed cube $Q_0\subsetneqq{\mathbb R}^n$, which when $\alpha=...
I actually prefer Robin Williams in his more serious roles (e.g. Good Will Hunting, The Fisher King, The World According to Garp). These are my favorite Robin Williams movies. But Seize the Day, although well-acted, is one of the worst movies I've ever seen and certainly the worst Robin Williams movie (even worse than ...
Data, algorithms, and compute/storage infrastructure are key assets that drive data science and artificial intelligence applications. As providing all these assets requires a huge investment, data science and artificial intelligence technologies are currently dominated by a small number of providers who can afford th...
This paper considers the transmission of an infinite sequence of messages (a streaming source) over a packet erasure channel, where every source message must be recovered perfectly at the destination subject to a fixed decoding delay. While the capacity of a channel that introduces only bursts of erasures is well kno...
Modern theoretical models strongly suggest that new phenomena await discovery above the energy scale of the Standard Model (SM) of particle interactions. In this paper we argue that correct description of particle physics in the TeV energy scale needs to account for degrees of freedom obeying the conformal (or scale)...
We numerically study the dynamics of an imploding hollow cylinder composed of dust. Since there is no cylindrical black hole in 4-dimensional spacetime with physically reasonable energy conditions, a collapsed dust cylinder involves a naked singularity accompanied by its causal future, or a fatal singularity which te...
Different simplified and detailed chemical models and their impact on simulations of combustion regimes initiating by the initial temperature gradient in methane/air mixtures are studied. The limits of the regimes of reaction wave propagation depend upon the spontaneous wave speed and the characteristic velocities of...
Organismal development is a complex process, involving a vast number of molecular constituents interacting on multiple spatio-temporal scales in the formation of intricate body structures. Despite this complexity, development is remarkably reproducible and displays tolerance to both genetic and environmental perturbati...
Principal component analysis is a statistical method, which lowers the number of important variables in a data set. The use of this method for the bursts' spectra and afterglows is discussed in this paper. The analysis indicates that three principal components are enough among the eight ones to describe the variablit...
Not really for tablets Despite the photos online showing a tablet secure in the unit, it doesn't work that way. The *minimum* depth from the rubber pad and the front tabs is 1.5 inches or so. So unless your tablet is of the biblical variety, it can't fill up the space and won't be secure.
We study network coordination problems, as captured by the setting of generalized network design (Emek et al., STOC 2018), in the face of uncertainty resulting from partial information that the network users hold regarding the actions of their peers. This uncertainty is formalized using Alon et al.'s Bayesian ignoran...
The $n$-dimensional numerical range of a densely defined linear operator $T$ on a complex Hilbert space $\H$ is the set of vectors in $\C^n$ of the form $(< Te_1,e_1>,...,< Te_n,e_n>)$, where $e_1,...,e_n$ is an orthonormal system in $\H$, consisting of vectors from the domain of $T$. We prove that the components of ...
The classical dynamical model for reactions induced by weakly-bound nuclei at near-barrier energies is developed further. It allows a quantitative study of the role and importance of incomplete fusion dynamics in asymptotic observables, such as the population of high-spin states in reaction products as well as the an...
Lots of lighting choices, terrible control placement The setting buttons are way too sensitive. Even a phone cable grazing the base will cause the lighting to change from one setting to the next. Not really practical if, like me, you keep it on a nightstand where you might also charge a phone or set a book down and ac...
Let $\F_q$ ($q=p^r$) be a finite field. In this paper the number of irreducible polynomials of degree $m$ in $\F_q[x]$ with prescribed trace and norm coefficients is calculated in certain special cases and a general bound for that number is obtained improving the bound by Wan if $m$ is small compared to $q$. As a cor...
Gang-involved youth in cities such as Chicago sometimes post on social media to express their aggression towards rival gangs and previous research has demonstrated that a deep learning approach can predict aggression and loss in posts. To address the possibility of bias in this sensitive application, we developed an ...
Not for all cameras! This canopy seems like it would be a good solution for a baby that crawls out of the crib or is able to grab things outside of the crib between the slats. I was excited about this specific canopy because it had the place to put a camera on top. It did not work for me, though. The top of the tent h...
The ferromagnetic resonance frequencies are obtained for a thin ferromagnetic film with surface anisotropy for the cases when the external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly or parallel to the film surface, and for various combinations of boundary conditions on the film surface. It is shown that in the presenc...
We study relations of some classes of $k$-convex, $k$-visible bodies in Euclidean spaces. We introduce and study \textrm{circular projections} in normed linear spaces and classes of bodies related with families of such maps, in particular, \textrm{$k$-circular convex} and \textrm{$k$-circular visible} ones. Investi...
A British lady who lost her husband to her own mother who then had a child for him has said she will never forgive her. The heartbroken lady identified as Lauren Wall, 34, from Twickenham, south-west London reportedly married the man when she was only 19. While they were preparing for their wedding at that time, Laur...
In order to study an interplay of disorder, correlation, and spin imbalance on antiferromagnetism, we systematically explore the ground state of one-dimensional spin-imbalanced Anderson-Hubbard model by using the density-matrix renormalization group method. We find that disorders localize the antiferromagnetic spin d...
Great curtain This shower curtain was just what I was looking for, it was easy to install and easy to clean since it is machine washable. The hooks were so much more easy to use than the clasping rings that came with my previous shower curtain and when it came to maintenace normally I would just buy a new curtain afte...
Far too bright for a bedroom Very large display will be easily read across a very large room or is you have really bad eyes. HOWEVER, if you want to use it in your bedroom, think twice. It is VERY BRIGHT even on the dimmest setting. Lit up half of the room like a nightlight.
What has yet to be done is to have a statute of Pre at Hayward field, not a picture, but a statute. Bowerman is at Hayward and Pre also should be. On the base of the statute should be his quote; To Give less than your best.......". This is long overdue.
"The Senate supports wise use of our savings" The Senate supports taking our PFDs to give to oil companies for tax credits.

I agree with all the others. Should have been ... I agree with all the others. Should have been more clear that there was no support for the wemo link/bulbs. Isn't this the most important part?!? Hoping there is an update soon as going back and forth from apps was not the idea behind this purchase!
Let $X$ be a topological space with Noetherian mod $p$ cohomology and let $C^*(X;\mathbb{F}_p)$ be the commutative ring spectrum of $\mathbb{F}_p$-valued cochains on $X$. The goal of this paper is to exhibit conditions under which the category of module spectra on $C^*(X;\mathbb{F}_p)$ is stratified in the sense of B...
Some members of the vegetal kingdom can achieve surprisingly fast movements making use of a clever combination of evaporation, elasticity and cavitation. In this process, enthalpic energy is transformed into elastic energy and suddenly released in a cavitation event which produces kinetic energy. Here we study this u...

We propose a new method for the problems of computing free energy and surface pressure for various statistical mechanics models on a lattice $\Z^d$. Our method is based on representing the free energy and surface pressure in terms of certain marginal probabilities in a suitably modified sublattice of $\Z^d$. Then rec...
Sturdy case, but paint flakes off within just a few months I good case, solidly built, but the black glossy paint started to flake off within less than 1 year. I ordered another one which only lasted 3 months. I suggest the manufacturer get a better adhesion for the finish. It’s a shame because if it was not for the p...
We show that the interplay between antiferromagnetic interaction and hole motion gives rise to a topological superconducting phase. This is captured by the one dimensional anisotropic $t-J$ model which can be experimentally achieved with ultracold polar molecules trapped onto an optical lattice. As a function of the ...
Over on this side of the ocean Toyota isn't the biggest seller, General Motors is. There is a reason for that in that tbey make what people want and they make a quality product. You belittling GM actually acknowledges what I said because you ignore what the industry critics are saying. Its people like you who can't o...
Where do I begin, its one of the most frustrating movies I've seen because it makes a lot of sense in terms of the point but it comes off as seriously stupid. A movie about a ghost inhabited bed?? The first 2 minutes of the movie shows a black and white flashback of a weird looking fat dude going dominatrix on a Fabien...
We propose a depth map inference system from monocular videos based on a novel dataset for navigation that mimics aerial footage from gimbal stabilized monocular camera in rigid scenes. Unlike most navigation datasets, the lack of rotation implies an easier structure from motion problem which can be leveraged for dif...
incorrect readings This unit is difficult to handle when checking a button battery, and it does not give meaningful power readings. I tested several new, out of the box, hearing aid button batteries, and each tested less than 1/2 of the factory specs. I went to the hearing aid center, who checked the same batteries, a...
The scattering of neutrinos off dark matter can induce time delays in their propagation compared to that of photons, which would wash out correlations between ultra-high-energy neutrinos and electromagnetic observations of their sources - while preserving the observed diffuse neutrino flux. This may explain the signi...
The luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor (LHCGR), also lutropin/choriogonadotropin receptor (LCGR) or luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) is a transmembrane receptor found predominantly in the ovary and testis, but also many extragonadal organs such as the uterus and breasts, the receptor interacts with both ...
"Margaritas and Cock..."<br /><br />This tremendously entertaining film grabs you from the opening scene and never stops delivering laughs, surprises and unexpectedly touching moments. I had more fun watching "The Matador" than almost any other film from 2005. It is a wacky film with an unforgettable character, played ...
Background: The problem of predicting whether a drug combination of arbitrary orders is likely to induce adverse drug reactions is considered in this manuscript. Methods: Novel kernels over drug combinations of arbitrary orders are developed within support vector machines for the prediction. Graph matching methods ar...
The elastic scattering of the halo nucleus $^6$He from heavy targets at incident energies near the Coulomb barrier displays a marked deviation from the standard Fresnel-type diffraction behavior. This deviation is due to the strong Coulomb dipole breakup coupling produced by the Coulomb field of the heavy target, a s...
Cute but not durable Let me say these are the cutest shoes and comfy once you get the "new" out of them- BUT - They came unglued and basically fell apart. So weird. I can not find a way to contact the company to ask them to replace them?? I was even thinking of buying a pair in another color but… oh well.
Let $\phi = \sum_{r^{2} \leq 4mn}c(n,r)q^{n}\zeta^{r}$ be a Jacobi form of weight $k$ (with $k > 2$ if $\phi$ is not a cusp form) and index $m$ with integral algebraic coefficients which is an eigenfunction of all Hecke operators $T_{p}, (p,m) = 1,$ and which has at least one nonvanishing coefficient $c(n,r)$ with $r...
This article is the second in a series of two papers concerning the mathematical study of a boundary integral equation of the second kind that describes the interaction of $N$ dielectric spherical particles undergoing mutual polarisation. The first article presented the numerical analysis of the Galerkin method used ...
difficult to spread the color and coverage was fine for this product, and as expected, it gets on everything as you're out and about, so be prepared to find red on your walls, car seat, friend's costumes/bodies, etc. I anticipated all this with the product and it pretty much met my expectations there. What I didn't an...
Kahan's method and a two-step generalization of the discrete gradient method are both linearly implicit methods that can preserve a modified energy for Hamiltonian systems with a cubic Hamiltonian. These methods are here investigated and compared. The schemes are applied to the Korteweg-de Vries equation and the Cama...
This amusing, sometimes poignant look at the Hollywood detective genre of the 1940's and 1950's stars Robert Sacci as an unnamed former cop who retires, uses his life savings to pay for plastic surgery to transform his image into that of his idol, Humphrey Bogart, then sets up shop as a private eye under the name "Sam ...
We interpret mathematically the pair (master equation, solution of master equation) up to equivalence, as the pair (a presentation of a free triangular dga T over a combination operad O, dga map of T into C, a dga over O) up to homotopy equivalence of dgOa maps, see Definition 1. We sketch two general applications: I...
I show that fractional exclusion statistics (FES) is manifested in general interacting systems and I calculate the exclusion statistics parameters. Most importantly, I show that the mutual exclusion statistics parameters--when the presence of particles in one Hilbert space influences the dimension of another Hilbert ...
This letter from the editor is hot off the presses. Tonight's group date on The Bachelor took Peter Weber's suitors to Costa Rica, where the ladies were asked to pose in their bikinis for a chance to get featured on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine. Ultimately, Cosmo editor-in-chief Jessica Pels picked Victoria Full...
In this paper three dimensional relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of AGN jets are presented to investigate the FR I/FR II dichotomy. Three simulations are presented which illustrates the difference in morphology for high/low Lorentz factor injection as well as a stratified background medium. Lorentz factors of 10...
Gemini North adaptive optics imaging spectroscopy is presented for the Galactic ultra-compact HII (UCHII) region K3-50A. Data were obtained in the K-band using the Near-infrared Integral Field Spectrograph (NIFS) behind the facility adaptive optics module ALTAIR in natural guide star mode. The NIFS data cube reveals ...
We study interactions of string coherent states in the DDF (after Di Vecchia, Del Giudice, Fubini) formalism. For simplicity we focus on open bosonic strings. After reviewing basic properties of DDF operators and of excited open strings, we present some classical profiles and show how they become more and more compac...
Franco proves, once again, that he is the prince of surreal & erotic cinema. True, much of his work can be viewed as entertaining sleaze but with Succubus (Necronomicon) he shows what he is truly capable of when he lets his warped creativity run riot and gives us a film that is both hypnotic and enigmatic whilst still ...
And you have Donald Trump, you want to call someone a clown and then make it racist. Have you read the news lately, with all the sexual harassment claims against White Men? But, I digress. I learned a long time ago, when someone makes an stupid racist statement, consider the sources and move on.

Consider factorizations into transpositions of an n-cycle in the symmetric group S_n. To every such factorization we assign a monomial in variables w_{ij} that retains the transpositions used, but forgets their order. Summing over all possible factorizations of n-cycles we obtain a polynomial that happens to admit a ...
Yes, I give it a 10 because I compare it not only to others of it's kind but also to the dreck one is bombarded with on a daily basis in what's laughably called today's "popular culture." That aside, the film is beautifully cast, as has been stated elsewhere, and gives us a fairly good look at popular theater of the la...

The Cook-Reckhow 1979 paper defined the area of research we now call Proof Complexity. There were earlier papers which contributed to the subject as we understand it today, the most significant being Tseitin's 1968 paper, but none of them introduced general notions that would allow to make an explicit and universal l...
We present a numerical study of a MEMS-based design of a fiber cavity integrated with an ion trap system. Each fiber mirror is supported by a microactuator that controls the mirror's position in three dimensions. The mechanical stability is investigated by a feasibility analysis showing that the actuator offers a sta...
In this thesis, we discuss several instances in which non-linear behaviour affects cosmological evolution in the early Universe. We begin by reviewing the standard cosmological model and the tools used to understand it theoretically and to compute its observational consequences. This includes a detailed exposition of...
Expired candy! I ordered 2 packages and they came quickly, but they had expired 2 months prior! I reordered another 2 packages, letting the company know that the previous ones were expired. I received the new ones again very quickly, however, they are expired as well! 😡 They are all going back! Where’s their quality ...
PATNA: Bihar will not be represented in the Republic Day parade at Janpath in New Delhi on January 26.

Using 226 million $B\bar{B}$ events recorded on the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BABAR detector at the SLAC $e^+e^-$ storage rings PEPII, we reconstruct $B^-\to D^{*0} e^-\bar\nu_e$ decays using the decay chain $D^{*0}\to{}D^0{}\pi^0$ and $D^{0}\to{}K^-\pi^+$. From the dependence of their differential rate on $w...
Super (see what I did there Super (see what I did there?) easy to set up and looks fine, IMO!

It must say something about the state of our nation that this programme is one of the most popular currently screened. <br /><br />The 'square' is peopled by such a miserable, untrustworthy, amoral, spiteful, unrelentingly dour group of characters as can be imagined. Everyone is stabbing someone in the back, everyone i...
We discuss the electronic properties of graphene and graphene nanoribbons including "pseudo-Rashba" spin-orbit coupling. After summarizing the bulk properties, we first analyze the scattering behavior close to an infinite mass and zigzag boundary. For low energies, we observe strong deviations from the usual spin-con...
We suggest a U(1)' gauge symmetry as an alternative to the usual R-parity of supersymmetric standard models, showing that it can also work as a common source of stabilities of proton and dark matter in addition to other attractive features. The residual discrete symmetries of a single U(1)' can provide stabilities to...

Mariana trench is the deepest place on the Earth. It crosses four tectonic plates of the Pacific Ocean: Mariana, Caroline, Pacific and Philippine. The formation of the trench is caused by the complex interconnection of various environmental factors. The aim of this study was to describe and characterize various impac...
We study transport properties of a topological insulator nanowire when a magnetic field is applied along its length. We predict that with strong surface disorder, a characteristic signature of the band topology is revealed in Aharonov Bohm (AB) oscillations of the conductance. These oscillations have a component with...
We study the dynamical interaction of the solar chromosphere with the transition region in mossy and non-mossy active-region plage. We carefully align image sequences taken with the Transition Region And Coronal Explorer (TRACE) in the ultraviolet passbands around 1550, 1600, and 1700 A and the extreme ultraviolet pa...
