The Geopolitical “Puzzle” of the Central Bank’s Switch to Gold
Gold holdings increased during recent time. Geopolitical factors could be responsible for such shift taking into account rising number of conflicts in the world since 2014. However, optimal share for gold in external assets is still disputable. The paper

Ion leakage from quasiparallel collisionless shocks: implications for injection and shock dissipation [PDF]
A simplified model of particle transport at a quasiparallel one-dimensional collisionless shock is suggested. In this model the MHD-turbulence behind the shock is dominated by a circularly polarized, large amplitude Alfv\'en wave originated upstream from the turbulence excited by particles leaking from the downstream medium.

Exchange-rate policy and the zero bound on nominal interest [PDF]
In this paper, we study the effectiveness of monetary policy in a severe recession and deflation when nominal interest rates are bounded at zero. We compare two alternative proposals for ameliorating the effect of the zero bound: an exchange-rate peg and

The quest for global monetary policy coordination
This paper puts forward a proposal to help monetary policies confront the challenge of the “normalisation” of money creation and interest rates. The difficult unwinding of years of unorthodox policies put financial stability at risk in major monetary ...

Monte Carlo Procedure for Protein Design [PDF]
A new method for sequence optimization in protein models is presented. The approach, which has inherited its basic philosophy from recent work by Deutsch and Kurosky [Phys. Rev. Lett. 76, 323 (1996)] by maximizing conditional probabilities rather than minimizing energy functions, is based upon a novel and very efficient multisequence Monte Carlo scheme.

Background – Allergen immunotherapy is used as aetiological treatment for canine atopic dermatitis (cAD). Objective – To assess the anti‐inflammatory agent‐sparing effect over 1 year of immunotherapy using pullulan‐conjugated recombinant Der f 2 (rDf2‐P). Conclusions and Clinical Relevance – Der f 2‐P immunotherapy can lead to a rapid reduction in anti‐

Field theoretic approach to the counting problem of Hamiltonian cycles of graphs [PDF]
A Hamiltonian cycle of a graph is a closed path that visits each site once and only once. I study a field theoretic representation for the number of Hamiltonian cycles for arbitrary graphs. By integrating out quadratic fluctuations around the saddle point, one obtains an estimate for the number which reflects characteristics of graphs well.

Abstract Understanding the functions and evolution of specificity‐determining residues is essential for improving strategies to predict and design enzyme functions. Whether the function of an amino acid residue is retained during evolution depends on intramolecular epistasis, which occurs when the same residue contributes to different phenotypes in ...
