Fossil soils: trace fossils of ecosystems on land and windows on the context of evolution
Evolution: Education and Outreach, 2022 This is a review of Soil Grown Tall: The Epic Saga of Life from Earth, by Gregory J. Retallack. In this book, Retallack shows how soils and life have coevolved over the last 3.5 billion years, and what soils tell us about the environments in which ...

On the Transitive Domination Principle for Continuous Function-Kernels [PDF]
Nagoya Mathematical Journal, 1975 One of the interesting problems in the potential theory for a function-kernel is to investigate the relation between the domination principle and the balayage principle.

Prospecting the protein design landscape
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review outlines the current state of various protein design approaches. We discuss the current possibilities enabled by recently released tools, highlight future avenues to pursue in protein design, and underscore the crucial role of key databases and resources for successful protein design workflows.

A Notion of Semantic Coherence for Underspecified Semantic Representation [PDF]
Computational Linguistics, 2017 The general problem of finding satisfying solutions to constraint-based underspecified representations of quantifier scope is NP-complete. Existing frameworks, including Dominance Graphs, Minimal Recursion Semantics, and Hole Semantics, have struggled to

Impressions of dominance are made relative to others in the visual environment [PDF]
, 2014 Face judgments of dominance play an important role in human social interaction. Perceived facial dominance is thought to indicate physical formidability, as well as resource acquisition and holding potential. Dominance cues in the face affect perceptions

Vector dominance, one flavored baryons, and QCD domain walls from the "hidden" Wess-Zumino term
SciPost Physics, 2021 We further explore a recent proposal that the vector mesons in QCD have a special role as Chern-Simons fields on various QCD objects such as domain walls and the one flavored baryons.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

A consistent multidimensional Pigou-Dalton transfer principle. [PDF]
The Pigou-Dalton principle demands that a regressive transfer decreases social welfare. In the unidimensional setting this principle is consistent, because regressivity in terms of attribute amounts and regressivity in terms of individual well-being ...
