On characterizing potential friends of 20

open access: yesAnnals of the West University of Timisoara: Mathematics and Computer Science
Does 20 have a friend? Or is it a solitary number? A folklore conjecture asserts that 20 has no friends, i.e., it is a solitary number. In this article, we prove that a friend N of 20 is of the form N = 2 · 52a ·m2, with (3;m) = (7;m) = 1 and it has at ...

The volume of an isolated singularity

open access: yes, 2011
We introduce a notion of volume of a normal isolated singularity that generalizes Wahl's characteristic number of surface singularities to arbitrary dimensions. We prove a basic monotonicity property of this volume under finite morphisms. We draw several

Torus invariant divisors

open access: yes, 2010
Using the language of polyhedral divisors and divisorial fans we describe invariant divisors on normal varieties X which admit an effective codimension one torus action.

Time‐resolved XPCS analysis across broad time‐scales using multi‐tau two‐time correlations

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
A scalable multi‐tau two‐time correlation framework enables efficient, time‐resolved XPCS analysis of long duration high‐frame‐rate modern synchrotron data while preserving sensitivity to non‐stationary dynamics.We present a multi‐tau two‐time correlation (MT‐2TC) analysis for X‐ray photon correlation spectroscopy that enables efficient analysis of ...

Prime divisors of some shifted products

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
We study prime divisors of various sequences of positive integers A(n)+1, n=1,…,N, such that the ratios a(n)=A(n)/A(n−1) have some number-theoretic or combinatorial meaning.

On contractible curves on normal surfaces

open access: yes, 1999
We characterize contractible curves on proper normal algebraic surfaces in terms of complementary Weil divisors. Using this we generalize the classical criteria of Castelnuovo and Artin. As application we derive a finiteness result on homogeneous spectra

Predictors of reduced length of stay in minimally invasive colectomy, a 20‐year study

open access: yesSurgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Minimally invasive colorectal resection is a common surgical procedure indicated for a variety of malignant and benign conditions. Length of stay (los) is an important metric in the evaluation of surgical care quality and healthcare expenditure.

A characterization of the algebra of holomorphic functions on a simply connected domain

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1989
Let A be a singly-generated ℱ-algebra. It is shown that A isomorphic to H(Ω) where Ω is a simply connected domain in ℂ if and only if A has no topological divisors of zero.

Normal crossing properties of complex hypersurfaces via logarithmic residues

open access: yes, 2014
We introduce a dual logarithmic residue map for hypersurface singularities and use it to answer a question of Kyoji Saito. Our result extends a theorem of L\^e and Saito by an algebraic characterization of hypersurfaces that are normal crossing in ...

A fast metaheuristic approach for the planar multiple obnoxious facility location problem

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The multiple obnoxious facility location problem is one of the most studied problems in the literature of the obnoxious facility location problems family. In this work, we propose an alternative algorithmic approach for this problem, based on an efficient metaheuristic procedure over a discretization of the plane based on Voronoi diagrams ...
