T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

Constructing quotients of algebraic varieties by linear algebraic group actions
, 2018 In this article we review the question of constructing geometric quotients of actions of linear algebraic groups on irreducible varieties over algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero, in the spirit of Mumford’s geometric invariant theory (GIT).

Nonprofit Governance and Financial Stability: A Study of Government‐Funded Social Services
Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nonprofit social service providers are essential in delivering vital services, often with public funding. This study adopts a contingency perspective to explore the relationship between organizational governance and financial stability in publicly funded nonprofit organizations. We use a combination of comparative multilevel analysis (CMA) and

Both density‐ and frequency‐dependent effects determine plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem
Oikos, EarlyView.We tested the hypothesis that both density‐ and frequency‐dependent interactions play important roles in determining plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem at several levels of available nitrogen. Plant growth was measured using the pin‐point method in a five‐block experiment with four nitrogen levels.

, 2008 Let KG be the group ring of a group G over a commutative ring K with unity. The rings KG are described for which xx(sigma)=x(sigma)x for all x=∑(g∈G)alfa(g)g∈KG, where x↦x(sigma)=∑(g∈G)alfa(g)f(g)sigma(g) is an involution of KG; here f:G→U(K) is a ...

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The GTPase KRAS executes a conformational switch between a GTP‐bound active state and a GDP‐bound inactive state, a process central to oncogenic signaling. However, the structural basis of this switching at the level of residue‐contact organization remains incompletely characterized by traditional binary structural models.
