Local extremality of the Calabi-Croke sphere for the length of the shortest closed geodesic [PDF]
, 2009 Recently, F. Balacheff proved that the Calabi-Croke sphere made of two flat 1-unit-side equilateral triangles glued along their boundaries is a local extremum for the length of the shortest closed geodesic among the Riemannian spheres with conical ...

Complementary and alternative metrics for tracking population-level trends in child linear growth.
PLOS Global Public Health, 2023 Stunting prevalence is commonly used to track population-level child nutritional status. However, other metrics derived from anthropometric datasets may be used as alternatives to stunting or provide complementary perspectives on the status of linear ...

Analysis of Alternative Metrics for the PAPR Problem in OFDM Transmission
, 2011 The effective PAPR of the transmit signal is the standard metric to capture the effect of nonlinear distortion in OFDM transmission. A common rule of thumb is the log$(N)$ barrier where $N$ is the number of subcarriers which has been theoretically ...

Bumpy Black Holes in Alternate Theories of Gravity
, 2011 We generalize the bumpy black hole framework to allow for alternative theory deformations. We construct two model-independent parametric deviations from the Kerr metric: one built from a generalization of the quasi-Kerr and bumpy metrics and one built ...

Systematic analysis of agreement between metrics and peer review in the UK REF [PDF]
, 2019 When performing a national research assessment, some countries rely on citation metrics whereas others, such as the UK, primarily use peer review. In the influential Metric Tide report, a low agreement between metrics and peer review in the UK Research ...

Time-dependent kinetic energy metrics for Lagrangians of electromagnetic type
, 2011 We extend the results obtained in a previous paper about a class of Lagrangian systems which admit alternative kinetic energy metrics to second-order mechanical systems with explicit time-dependence. The main results are that a time-dependent alternative
