Hidden Losses: Assessing the Risk of Coextinction Among Ectoparasitic Flies and Their Bat Host Species in Brazil

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
The potential impact of bat species extinction on the number of their ectoparasitic fly species, based on interaction data for Brazil. As bat host species are removed over time, more connected species (green) would experience steeper declines and lead to greater ectoparasite losses when compared to a random extinction model (gray).

Social and emotional pathways to shame reduction: An RCT with preservice teachers

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Shame is an unpleasant, activating emotion that has been shown to undermine learners' motivation and achievement and identity development in mathematics education. Recent studies have implemented positive psychology interventions (PPIs) to reduce preservice teachers' shame in mathematics, with promising quantitative outcomes ...

The distribution of \(\alpha p\) modulo one

, 2016
Let \(\|x\|\) be the distance from \(x\) to the nearest integer, and let \(\alpha\) be an irrational number. Then the authors prove that for any \(\varepsilon> 0\) there are infinitely many prime numbers \(p\) such that \(\|\alpha p\|< p^{-16/49+ \varepsilon}\), improving the value \(9/28\) of \textit{C. Jia} [Sci. China, Ser.

On the distribution of αp modulo one for primes p of a special form

Mathematica Slovaca, 2010
Abstract A classical problem in analytic number theory is to study the distribution of αp modulo 1, where α is irrational and p runs over the set of primes. We consider the subsequence generated by the primes p such that p+2 is an almost-prime (the existence of infinitely many such p is another topical result in prime number theory) and ...

TABI: Tight and Balanced Interactive Atlas Packing

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlas packing is a key step in many computer graphics applications. Packing algorithms seek to arrange a set of charts within a fixed‐size atlas with as little downscaling as possible. Many packing applications such as content creation tools, dynamic atlas generation for video games, and texture space shading require on‐the‐fly interactive ...
