Rethinking Transnational Places as Migratory Ecotones

open access: yesPopulation, Space and Place, Volume 31, Issue 4, May 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper revisits the concept of ecotone to shed a different light on migratory spaces. The notion of ecotone was first applied for the study of the contact zones between ecological systems. Over the last two decades, it has been used by scholars of postcolonial literature for the analysis of spaces of cultural interactions.

Observation‐Based Estimate of Net Community Production in Antarctic Sea Ice

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.
Abstract Antarctic sea ice is one of the largest biomes on Earth providing a critical habitat for ice algae. Measurements of primary production in Antarctic sea ice remain scarce and an observation‐based estimate of primary production has not been revisited in over 30 years. We fill this knowledge gap by presenting a newly compiled circumpolar data set

Skew-cyclic codes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
We generalize the notion of cyclic codes by using generator polynomials in (non commutative) skew polynomial rings. Since skew polynomial rings are left and right euclidean, the obtained codes share most properties of cyclic codes. Since there are much more skew-cyclic codes, this new class of codes allows to systematically search for codes with good ...

A Fox-Milnor theorem for the Alexander polynomial of knotted $2$-spheres in $S^4$ [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
For knots in $S^3$, it is well-known that the Alexander polynomial of a ribbon knot factorizes as $f(t)f(t^{-1})$ for some polynomial $f(t)$. By contrast, the Alexander polynomial of a ribbon $2$-knot is not even symmetric in general. Via an alternative notion of ribbon $2$-knots, we give a topological condition on a $2$-knot that implies the ...

Television, identity and diaspora youth: a visual ethnographic study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Media discourses and popular culture offer a broad range of symbolical sources on which teenagers can rely to give meaning to their everyday life experiences and by consequence play a possible role in the identity constructions of young people (Brown ...

The Warm Absorber constrained by the coronal lines in Seyfert 1 galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1998
We present results of the photoionization code IRIS, which calculates the spectrum emitted by the Warm Absorber (WA) in Seyfert 1 galaxies for a large grid of parameters (density, column density, ionization parameter...). We show that in Seyfert 1s, coronal lines Fe X, Fe XI, Fe XIV...), whose emission region shares common characteristics with the WA ...
