Prey Status Affects Paralysis Investment in the Ponerine Ant Harpegnathos venator
Insects, 2021 The paralysis behavior of some ponerine ants when foraging may be important for food storage and colony development. However, how workers invest in paralysis under different prey circumstances is often overlooked.

Arboreal twig-nesting ants form dominance hierarchies over nesting resources. [PDF]
, 2019 Interspecific dominance hierarchies have been widely reported across animal systems. High-ranking species are expected to monopolize more resources than low-ranking species via resource monopolization. In some ant species, dominance hierarchies have been

Characteristic cycles and Gevrey series solutions of $A$-hypergeometric systems [PDF]
, 2019 We compute the $L$-characteristic cycle of an $A$-hypergeometric system and higher Euler-Koszul homology modules of the toric ring. We also prove upper semicontinuity results about the multiplicities in these cycles and apply our results to analyze the ...

Elliptic Curves over Totally Real Cubic Fields are Modular [PDF]
, 2019 We prove that all elliptic curves defined over totally real cubic fields are modular. This builds on previous work of Freitas, Le Hung and Siksek, who proved modularity of elliptic curves over real quadratic fields, as well as recent breakthroughs due to
