Allotaxonometry and rank-turbulence divergence: a universal instrument for comparing complex systems
Complex systems often comprise many kinds of components which vary over many orders of magnitude in size: Populations of cities in countries, individual and corporate wealth in economies, species abundance in ecologies, word frequency in natural language,

ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.

Towards Eco-Efficient Production Planning: Stochastic Models Incorporating Quality Uncertainty and Environmental Impact [PDF]
In industrial production, balancing demand volatility and customer lead times remains a critical challenge. Traditional production planning often assumes all manufactured products meet quality standards; however, defective parts detected during ...

A COVID-19 vaccination model for Aotearoa New Zealand
We develop a mathematical model to estimate the effect of New Zealand’s vaccine rollout on the potential spread and health impacts of COVID-19. The main purpose of this study is to provide a basis for policy advice on border restrictions and control ...

Onset of criticality in hyper-auxetic polymer networks
Auxetic materials are characterized by a negative Poisson’s ratio - they become thicker when stretched. Here, authors reach the limit of auxetic behavior, known as hyper-auxetic, in polymer networks, hitting an unconventional mechanical critical point.

ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden.
