Multi Black Holes and Earthquakes on Riemann surfaces with boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We prove an "Earthquake Theorem" for hyperbolic metrics with geodesic boundary on a compact surfaces $S$ with boundary: given two hyperbolic metrics with geodesic boundary on a surface with $k$ boundary components, there are $2^k$ right earthquakes ...

On series with alternating signs in the Euclidean metric [PDF]

open access: yesReal Analysis Exchange, 1999
Series of the form \[ \sum_{n=1}^\infty(-1)^{a_n} b_n\tag{1} \] are studied, where \((a_n)_1^\infty\in \{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}\), \(b_n\) are elements of a real Hilbert space. Mainly the structure of the sets \(C= \{(a_n)_1^\infty\in \{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}\): (1) converges\}, \(B= \{(a_n)_1^\infty\in \{0, 1\}^{\mathbb{N}}\): (1) is bounded\} are ...

Analysis of Alternative Metrics for the PAPR Problem in OFDM Transmission

open access: yes, 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 ...

Systematic analysis of agreement between metrics and peer review in the UK REF [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Bumpy Black Holes in Alternate Theories of Gravity

open access: yes, 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 ...

Impact of greenhouse gas metrics on the quantification of agricultural emissions and farm-scale mitigation strategies: a New Zealand case study

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2013
Agriculture emits a range of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gas metrics allow emissions of different gases to be reported in a common unit called CO _2 -equivalent. This enables comparisons of the efficiency of different farms and production systems and of

Time-dependent kinetic energy metrics for Lagrangians of electromagnetic type

open access: yes, 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

Local extremality of the Calabi-Croke sphere for the length of the shortest closed geodesic [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

An Environmental Scan of Bibliometrics and Research Impact Open Instructional Trends at Canadian Academic Research Libraries

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Academic Librarianship
While bibliometrics have been used for years in academia, recent conversations into their responsible use have driven a need for greater understanding of bibliometrics and research impact within the academic community.
