Degenerate Hořava gravity [PDF]
Abstract Hořava gravity breaks Lorentz symmetry by introducing a dynamical timelike scalar field (the khronon), which can be used as a preferred time coordinate (thus selecting a preferred space–time foliation). Adopting the khronon as the time coordinate, the theory is invariant only under time reparametrizations and spatial ...

Computing all critical points of a monomial on a very affine variety is a fundamental task in algebraic statistics, particle physics and other fields. The number of critical points is known as the maximum likelihood (ML) degree. When the variety is smooth, it coincides with the Euler characteristic.

Four-Dimensional Painlev\'e-Type Equations Associated with Ramified Linear Equations III: Garnier Systems and Fuji-Suzuki Systems [PDF]
This is the last part of a series of three papers entitled "Four-dimensional Painlev\'e-type equations associated with ramified linear equations". In this series of papers we aim to construct the complete degeneration scheme of four-dimensional Painlev ...

Complement C3 variant and the risk of age-related macular degeneration [PDF]
Background: Age-related macular degeneration is the most common cause of blindness in Western populations. Susceptibility is influenced by age and by genetic and environmental factors.

Semi-Stable Degeneration of Toric Varieties and Their Hypersurfaces [PDF]
We provide a construction of examples of semistable degeneration via toric geometry. The applications include a higher dimensional generalization of classical degeneration of K3 surface into 4 rational components, an algebraic geometric version of ...

Mitochondria are the main sites of biological energy generation in eukaryotes. These organelles are remnants of a bacterial endosymbiont that took up residence inside a host cell over 1,500 million years ago. Comparative genomics studies suggest that the mitochondrion is monophyletic in origin.

A solution to the crucial problem of population degeneration in high-dimensional evolutionary optimization [PDF]
Three popular evolutionary optimization algorithms are tested on high-dimensional benchmark functions. An important phenomenon responsible for many failures - population degeneration - is discovered.

$E_1$-degeneration and $d'd''$-lemma [PDF]
For a double complex $(A, d', d'')$, we show that if it satisfies the $d'd''$-lemma and the spectral sequence $\{E^{p, q}_r\}$ induced by $A$ does not degenerate at $E_0$, then it degenerates at $E_1$.
