Two-dimensional Quantum-Corrected Eternal Black Hole [PDF]
, 1995 The one-loop quantum corrections to geometry and thermodynamics of black hole are studied for the two-dimensional RST model. We chose boundary conditions corresponding to the eternal black hole being in the thermal equilibrium with the Hawking radiation.

Performance of the new ACR/EULAR classification criteria for systemic sclerosis in clinical practice [PDF]
, 2017 Objective. The preliminary classification criteria for SSc lack sensitivity for mild/early SSc patients, therefore, the new ACR/EULAR classification criteria for SSc were developed.

Analyzing critical propagation in a reaction-diffusion-advection model using unstable slow waves
, 2014 The effect of advection on the critical minimal speed of traveling waves is studied. Previous theoretical studies estimated the effect on the velocity of stable fast waves and predicted the existence of a critical advection strength below which ...

A Direct Elliptic Solver Based on Hierarchically Low-rank Schur Complements
, 2016 A parallel fast direct solver for rank-compressible block tridiagonal linear systems is presented. Algorithmic synergies between Cyclic Reduction and Hierarchical matrix arithmetic operations result in a solver with $O(N \log^2 N)$ arithmetic complexity ...

A Genome-Wide RNAi Screen in Caenorhabditis elegans Identifies the Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subunit ACR-7 as an Antipsychotic Drug Target [PDF]
, 2013 We report a genome-wide RNA interference (RNAi) screen for Suppressors of Clozapine-induced Larval Arrest (scla genes) in Caenorhabditis elegans, the first genetic suppressor screen for antipsychotic drug (APD) targets in an animal. The screen identifies

BEC Collapse and Dynamical Squeezing of Vacuum Fluctuations [PDF]
, 2003 We analyze the phenomena of Bose Novae, as described by Donley et al [Nature 412, 295 (2001)], by focusing on the behavior of excitations or fluctuations above the condensate, as driven by the dynamics of the condensate (rather than the dynamics of the ...

Quantum phase transitions and thermodynamics of the power-law Kondo model [PDF]
, 2013 We revisit the physics of a Kondo impurity coupled to a fermionic host with a diverging power-law density of states near the Fermi level, $\rho(\omega) \sim |\omega|^r$, with exponent ...
