Analysis of image formation in optical palpation
Optical palpation is an emerging elastography technique that generates images of mechanical stress at the tissue surface, with applications in intraoperative cancer detection. Image formation is simulated using finite element analysis and validated with experiments on silicone phantoms, providing an analysis of trends in detectability, feature ...

ABSTRACT Terwilliger algebras are finite‐dimensional semisimple algebras that were first introduced by Paul Terwilliger in 1992 in studies of association schemes and distance‐regular graphs. The Terwilliger algebras of the conjugacy class association schemes of the symmetric groups Sym(n) $\text{Sym}(n)$, for 3≤n≤6 $3\le n\le 6$, have been studied and ...

A Sharper Ramsey Theorem for Constrained Drawings
ABSTRACT Given a graph G $G$ and a collection C ${\mathscr{C}}$ of subsets of Rd ${{\mathbb{R}}}^{d}$ indexed by the subsets of vertices of G $G$, a constrained drawing of G $G$ is a drawing where each edge is drawn inside some set from C ${\mathscr{C}}$, in such a way that nonadjacent edges are drawn in sets with disjoint indices.

Edge‐Connectivity Between Edge‐Ends of Infinite Graphs
ABSTRACT In infinite graph theory, the notion of ends, first introduced by Freudenthal and Jung for locally finite graphs, plays an important role when generalizing statements from finite graphs to infinite ones. Nash‐Williams' Tree‐Packing Theorem and MacLane's Planarity Criteria are examples of results that allow a topological approach, in which ends

The Generic Circular Triangle‐Free Graph
ABSTRACT In this article, we introduce the generic circular triangle‐free graph C 3 ${{\mathbb{C}}}_{3}$ and propose a finite axiomatization of its first‐order theory. In particular, our main results show that a countable graph G $G$ embeds into C 3 ${{\mathbb{C}}}_{3}$ if and only if it is a { K 3 , K 1 + 2 K 2 , K 1 + C 5 , C 6 } $\{{K}_{3},{K}_{1}+2{

Conformal Hypergraphs: Duality and Implications for the Upper Clique Transversal Problem
ABSTRACT Given a hypergraph H ${\rm{ {\mathcal H} }}$, the dual hypergraph of H ${\rm{ {\mathcal H} }}$ is the hypergraph of all minimal transversals of H ${\rm{ {\mathcal H} }}$. The dual hypergraph is always Sperner, that is, no hyperedge contains another.

Weighted Turán Theorems With Applications to Ramsey‐Turán Type of Problems
ABSTRACT We study extensions of Turán Theorem in edge‐weighted settings. A particular case of interest is when constraints on the weight of an edge come from the order of the largest clique containing it. These problems are motivated by Ramsey‐Turán type problems.

Diagnostic safety and quality optimization in sepsis study protocol
Abstract Background Sepsis ranks among the “Big Three" conditions most prone to harmful diagnostic errors. Despite its high prevalence and severity, health systems lack effective and contextually tailored strategies to optimize diagnostic accuracy for sepsis.

Survive the economic downturn: Operating flexibility, productivity, and stock crash
Abstract Operating flexibility supports a firm's resilience strategy during challenging times by enabling them to promptly cut down operating costs associated with unproductive resources. We employ a real options model to formalize this insight. Our empirically grounding analytics motivate a firm‐level proxy for downscale operating flexibility (FLEX ...

Reflections on the Spatial Exponential Growth of Electromagnetic Quasinormal Modes
Quasinormal modes (QNMs) offer a robust framework for understanding the physics of resonators. However, conceptual challenges arise in regions distant from resonators, where QNM fields exponentially grow. This growth is not unphysical, but gives rise to counterintuitive effects, which is explained by examining fundamentals of non‐Hermitian systems ...
