How to coexist with fire ants: The roles of behaviour and cuticular compounds [PDF]
, 2013 tBecause territoriality is energetically costly, territorial animals frequently respond less aggressively toneighbours than to strangers, a reaction known as the “dear enemy phenomenon” (DEP).

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.

APPLYING ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM TO SOLVE GEAR BOX DESIGN [PDF]
Proceedings on Engineering Sciences, 2022 In this paper, we present the ant colony optimization algorithm (ACO for short), which was used to solve gear box problem design. Biological fundamentals of ACO algorithm, as well as method explanation are presented.

G-valued crystalline representations with minuscule p-adic Hodge type [PDF]
, 2015 We study G-valued semi-stable Galois deformation rings where G is a reductive group. We develop a theory of Kisin modules with G-structure and use this to identify the connected components of crystalline deformation rings of minuscule p-adic Hodge type ...

A Mordell-Weil theorem for cubic hypersurfaces of high dimension [PDF]
, 2016 Let $X$ be a smooth cubic hypersurface of dimension $n \ge 1$ over the rationals. It is well-known that new rational points may be obtained from old ones by secant and tangent constructions.

Coleman maps and the p-adic regulator [PDF]
, 2010 This paper is a sequel to our earlier paper "Wach modules and Iwasawa theory for modular forms" (arXiv: 0912.1263), where we defined a family of Coleman maps for a crystalline representation of the Galois group of Qp with nonnegative Hodge-Tate weights ...
