We present a model of adaptive regulatory networks consisting of a simple
biologically-motivated rewiring procedure coupled to an elementary stability
criterion. The resulting networks exhibit a characteristic stationary
heavy-tailed degree distribution, show complex structural microdynamics and
self-organize to a dy... |
Honey has been collected and used by humankind as both a food and medicine
for thousands of years. However, in the modern economy, honey has become
subject to mislabelling and adulteration making it the third most faked food
product in the world. The international scale of fraudulent honey has had both
economic and e... |
Art,
Please tell me that you really don't intend to say that the rise of incidents like that described in the article is Canada's fault because we haven't adopted sufficiently xenophobic immigration, border-entry and aggressive deportation policies and practices to match those assumed to apply in the US (I say assumed... |
A longtime fan of Bette Midler, I must say her recorded live concerts are my favorites. Bette thrills us with her jokes and brings us to tears with her ballads. A literal rainbow of emotion and talent, Bette shows us her best from her solid repertoire, as well as new songs from the "Bette of Roses" album. Spanning gene... |
It doesn’t work
Extremely unhappy with this product. Absolutely ineffective and a total waste of $30. Do not buy this. I used it 2 times a day for three weeks on two cats that I had to feed separately. I ended up spending $200 at the vet with one pill that was effective. |
I have seen many - possibly too many straight-to-video, no budget slasher films and have developed a taste for the "good ones", or the ones that are less sucky, as ridiculous as that sounds, hahaha. DR. CHOPPER, is what I kindly like to refer to as... absolute crap. Nothing about it is enjoyable - the acting sucks, the... |
The assumption that the Universe, on sufficiently large scales, is
homogeneous and isotropic is crucial to our current understanding of cosmology.
In this paper we test if the observed galaxy distribution is actually
homogeneous on large scales. We have carried out a multifractal analysis of the
galaxy distribution i... |
A one-dimensional and stationary reactor model is presented to describe the
catalytic conversion of a gaseous hydrocarbon fuel with air and steam to
synthesis gas by autothermal reforming (ATR) and catalytic partial oxidation
(CPO). The model defines two subsequent sections in the reactor, namely an
upstream oxidatio... |
In this paper we present results of our calculations of the non-collinear
spin density distribution in the systems with frustrated triangular magnetic
structure (Mn-based antiperovskite compounds, Mn_{3}AN (A=Ga, Zn)) in the
ground state and under external mechanical strain. We show that the spin
density in the (111)... |
The aim of this work is to understand some of the asymptotic properties of
sequences of lattices in a fixed locally compact group. In particular we will
study the asymptotic growth of the Betti numbers of the lattices renormalized
by the covolume and the rank gradient, the minimal number of generators also
renormaliz... |
Topological representations are rapidly becoming a popular way to capture and
encode higher-order interactions in complex systems. They have found
applications in disciplines as different as cancer genomics, brain function,
and computational social science, in representing both descriptive features of
data and infere... |
We describe two algorithms for finding representatives of the nilpotent
orbits of a theta-group. The algorithms have been implemented in the computer
algebra system GAP (inside the package SLA). We comment on their performance.
We apply the algorithms to study the nilpotent orbits of theta-groups, where
theta is an N... |
This survey of topological cyclic homology is a chapter in the Handbook on
Homotopy Theory. We give a brief introduction to topological cyclic homology
and the cyclotomic trace map following Nikolaus-Scholze, followed by a proof of
B\"okstedt periodicity that closely resembles B\"okstedt's original unpublished
proof.... |
Precision infrared photometry from Spitzer has enabled the first direct
studies of light from extrasolar planets, via observations at secondary eclipse
in transiting systems. Current Spitzer results include the first longitudinal
temperature map of an extrasolar planet, and the first spectra of their
atmospheres. Spi... |
I just happened to stumble to this film and checked IMDb for more information: Score 6,7, well... not so bad. Genre: scifi...good I like scifi. So I got the movie and I was looking forward to have a relaxing Sunday evening watching it. But but...NO.<br /><br />As in summary, this isn't a movie at all. It is a religious... |
Once again, Doctor Who delivers the goods by the bucket load. It has humour ("You're just making it up as you go along!" "Yup, but I do it brilliantly"), action, monsters (in this case still more kick-ass cybermen), tragedy and scare tactics. In short, just what the doctor ordered (pun intended). The way that the emoti... |
Compound-tunable embedding potential (CTEP) method is proposed. A fragment of
some chemical compound, "main cluster" in the present paper, is limited by
boundary anions such that the nearest environmental atoms are cations. The CTEP
method is based on constructing the embedding potential as linear combination
of shor... |

The corruption has grown quite brazen. There's supposed to be zero influence by Mammon's spiritless cash over democratic matters such as people's destinies. This thing is wrongful, its agents are depraved. They violate all cosmic and social decency. What I fear is that the townspeople are not prepared to fight off an a... |
The simplistic model of the classical spacetime foam is considered, which
consists of static wormholes embedded in Minkowski spacetime. We explicitly
demonstrate that such a foam structure leads to a topological bias of
point-like sources which can equally be interpreted as the presence of a dark
halo around any poin... |

In Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), it is important to formally prove per
flow latency and backlog bounds. To this end, recent works apply network
calculus and obtain latency bounds from service curves. The latency component
of such service curves is directly derived from upper bounds on the values of
the credit coun... |
Reasoning modulo equivalences is natural for everyone, including
mathematicians. Unfortunately, in proof assistants based on type theory,
equality is appallingly syntactic and, as a result, exploiting equivalences is
cumbersome at best. Parametricity and univalence are two major concepts that
have been explored to tr... |
We experimentally demonstrate the emergence of a purely azimuthally polarized
vectorial vortex beam with a phase singularity upon Brewster reflection of
focused circularly polarized light from a dielectric substrate. The effect
originates from the polarizing properties of the Fresnel reflection
coefficients described... |
Factory machinery is prone to failure or breakdown, resulting in significant
expenses for companies. Hence, there is a rising interest in machine monitoring
using different sensors including microphones. In the scientific community, the
emergence of public datasets has led to advancements in acoustic detection and

Looks like picture, but arrived with dents and a few small tears
This trifold looks just like the picture. However, it was dented in places despite the large, strong box it arrived in. Then upon opening it, there were small tears in the folds. However, because we needed this asap for my son's project, we just dealt wi... |
What was this horrible thing that Trump said? What I have seen discussed as the biggest issue was him saying that both protesters and counter protesters are responsible for the violence. Why is that the most horrible thing ever uttered by a President? It's been difficult to get past all of the emotion and really und... |
Inspired by a recent work about distribution frames, the definition of
multiplier operator is extended in the rigged Hilbert spaces setting and a
study of its main properties is carried on. In particular, conditions for the
density of domain and boundedness are given. The case of Riesz distribution
bases is examined ... |
Multiphase titanium alloys are critical materials in high value engineering
components, for instance in aero engines. Microstructural complexity is

Love the design and found it very effective. BUT badly engineered in that the "closed loop" air bladder system is a bad idea. A small filler valve would greatly improve this product as it would allow it to work even after developing small leaks. Mine was very comfortable... |
Tomato yield and quality in Iraq have been threatened by a variable range of infections caused by tomato yellow leaf curl virus. In previous studies, the TYLCV isolates were partially characterized using molecular tests for small fragments not the entire length of the virus. Sample of TYLCV-infected tomato has applied ... |
We consider a dynamical system described by the differential equation
$\dot{Y}_t=-U'(Y_t)$ with a unique stable point at the origin. We perturb the
system by the L\'evy noise of intensity $\varepsilon$ to obtain the stochastic
differential equation $dX^{\varepsilon}_t=-U'(X^{\varepsilon}_{t-})
dt+\varepsilon dL_t.$ T... |
I've never actually seen this film but can tell you one thing about its production. While a comedy/oldies radio DJ in 1988, I got a call from the production company. They asked if I'd write and record a bit they'd drop into the soundtrack as sounds eminating from a TV (the television screen itself would never be shown)... |
Near the horizon of a black brane solution in Anti-de Sitter space, the
long-wavelength fluctuations of the metric exhibit hydrodynamic behaviour. For
Einstein's theory, the ratio of the shear viscosity of near-horizon metric
fluctuations eta to the entropy per unit of transverse volume s is eta/s=1/4
pi. We propose ... |
Orbital differentiation is a common theme in multiorbital systems, yet a
complete understanding of it is still missing. Here, we consider a minimal
model for orbital differentiation in Hund metals with a highly accurate method:

We investigate the impact of buoyancy on the solute mass transport in an
evaporating liquid mixture (non-volatile solute $+$ solvent) confined in a slit
perpendicular to the gravity. Solvent evaporation at one end of the slit
induces a solute concentration gradient which in turn drives free convection
due to the diff... |
The r-process in a low temperature environment is explored, in which the
neutron emission by photodisintegration does not play a role (cold r-process).
A semi-analytic neutrino-driven wind model is utilized for this purpose. The
temperature in a supersonically expanding outflow can quickly drop to a few
10^8 K, where... |
In the framework of a nonrelativistic chiral quark model, we continue to
study the mass spectra of the fully-heavy $bb\bar{c}\bar{c}$ and
$bc\bar{b}\bar{c}$ tetraquarks. In the present calculations, two structures,
meson-meson [$\bar{Q}Q$][$\bar{Q}Q$] and diquark-antidiquark

Nonparametric tests via kernel embedding of distributions have witnessed a
great deal of practical successes in recent years. However, statistical
properties of these tests are largely unknown beyond consistency against a
fixed alternative. To fill in this void, we study here the asymptotic
properties of goodness-of-... |
(Abridged) We present R~600, 10-37um spectra of 53 ULIRGs at z<0.32, taken
using the IRS on board Spitzer. All of the spectra show fine structure emission
lines of Ne, O, S, Si and Ar, as well as molecular Hydrogen lines. Some ULIRGs
also show emission lines of Cl, Fe, P, and atomic Hydrogen, and/or absorption

We address the problem of unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) by learning a
cross-domain agnostic embedding space, where the distance between the
probability distributions of the two source and target visual domains is
minimized. We use the output space of a shared cross-domain deep encoder to
model the embedding sp... |
We present a characterization of the asymptotics of all asymptotically flat
stationary vacuum solutions of Einstein's field equations. This
characterization is given in terms of two sequences of symmetric trace free

Core-excitation of water ice releases many different molecules and ions in
the gas phase. Studying these desorbed species and the underlying mechanisms

It is argued that all notions associated with the origin of life should be
related with the participatory anthropic principle of Wheeler and must be
extended into the realm of the multiverse. Also discussed is the notion that
life can only be possible in a given universe during a finite period along

We explore the kinetic magnetism of the infinite-$U$ repulsive Hubbard models
at low hole densities on various lattices with nearest-neighbor hopping
integrals modulated by a staggered magnetic flux $\pm\phi$. Tuning $\phi$ from
0 to $\pi$ makes the ground state (GS) change from a Nagaoka-type ferromagnetic
state to ... |
This paper is devoted to derive integral representation formulae for the
solution of an inhomogeneous linear wave equation with time-dependent damping
and mass terms, that are scale-invariant with respect to the so-called
hyperbolic scaling. Yagdjian's integral transform approach is employed for this
purpose. The mai... |
Hints of violation of lepton flavor universality in semileptonic $B$ decays
have prompted a renewed interest in leptoquarks at the low TeV scale. Among the
different scenarios suggested, some happen to violate also lepton number, yet
not much attention has been paid to the expected size of the associated lepton
numbe... |
Visual counting, a task that predicts the number of objects from an
image/video, is an open-set problem by nature, i.e., the number of population
can vary in $[0,+\infty)$ in theory. However, the collected images and labeled
count values are limited in reality, which means only a small closed set is
observed. Existin... |

We derive bounds on couplings in the standard model effective field theory
(SMEFT) as a consequence of causality and the analytic structure of scattering
amplitudes. In the SMEFT, there are 64 independent operators at mass dimension

contain four... |
Great idea if it had worked out for us
It looks easier than it is. I ran around trying to fill this thing with air and it took several tries. I looked ridiculous. Finally got enough air in it to make it work. I sat on it then fell right off. I really think I am missing something. My 12-year old had trouble staying on ... |
It's easy to think Long Island is no longer the land of manufacturing.
With the end of high-profile companies like Grumman Corp., and the growth of other key sectors like health care and finance, the Island is no longer as directly and publicly associated with the manufacturing industry as it once was.
Nonetheless, i... |
I study fluid flow at the interface between elastic solids with randomly

We evaluate the mass of the $B_{s0}$ scalar meson and the coupling constant
in the $B_{s0} B K$ vertex in the framework of QCD sum rules. We consider the
$B_{s0}$ as a tetraquark state to evaluate its mass. We get $m_{B_s0}=(6.04\pm
0.08) \GeV$, which is bigger than predictions supposing it as a $b\bar{s}$
state or a... |
The low luminosity, X-ray flaring activity, of the sub-class of high mass

Animals with complex nervous systems demand sleep for memory consolidation and synaptic remodeling. Here we show that though the Caenorhabditis elegans nervous system has a limited number of neurons and connections, sleep is necessary for both processes. In addition, it is unclear in any system if sleep collaborates wi... |
We present a general procedure to construct the first law of thermodynamics

fps, we observe the thermally activated switching of H between two O atoms on
neighbori... |
We study vertex colorings of the square $G^2$ of an outerplanar graph $G$. We

$\Delta\in \nats$. As a bonus, we obtain the optimal bound of the choosability

We use a probabilistic approach to study the rate of convergence to
equilibrium for a collisionless (Knudsen) gas in dimension equal to or larger

convergence given in [AG1... |
Every quasigroup $(S,\cdot)$ belongs to a set of 6 quasigroups, called
parastrophes denoted by $(S,\pi_i)$, $i\in \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$. It is shown that
