Metrics for quantifying interdependencies [PDF]
The quantification of interdependencies is a, major challenge when attempting to analyze the behavior of critical infrastructures. This paper presents a taxonomy of interdependency quantification metrics based on their information content, decision ...

Uniqueness of critical metrics for a quadratic curvature functional [PDF]
In this paper we prove new rigidity results for complete, possibly non-compact, critical metrics of the quadratic curvature functionals $\mathfrak{S}^2 = \int R_g^{2} dV_g$.

Rank-Metric Codes, Semifields, and the Average Critical Problem
We investigate two fundamental questions intersecting coding theory and combinatorial geometry, with emphasis on their connections. These are the problem of computing the asymptotic density of MRD codes in the rank metric, and the Critical Problem for combinatorial geometries by Crapo and Rota.

A spinorial energy functional: Critical points and gradient flow [PDF]
On the universal bundle of unit spinors we study a natural energy functional whose critical points, if dimM C 3, are precisely the pairs (g,φ) consisting of a Ricci-flat Riemannian metric g together with a parallel g-spinor φ.

ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Critical Homogeneous Metrics on the Heisenberg Manifold
Let \(H\) be the real \(3\)-dimensional Heisenberg group and \(M = H/ \Gamma\) its compact quotient by a uniform discrete subgroup \(\Gamma\) with integral entries. In the present paper the author gets a necessary and sufficient condition for a left-invariant metric \(g\) on \(M\) to be a critical point for the total scalar curvature functional defined

ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...
