Rigidity for general semiconvex entire solutions to the sigma-2 equation [PDF]
We show that every general semiconvex entire solution to the sigma-2 equation is a quadratic polynomial. A decade ago, this result was shown for almost convex solutions.

The entire solutions of a polynomial difference equation
Recently S. Shimomura has shown that the polynomial difference equationw(z + 1) =P(w(z)), whereP is a given polynomial of degree at least two, always has entire non-constant solutions. The present investigation shows how to construct all entire solutions of the equation and discusses some properties of the solutions.

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance
We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

On the Classification of Entire Solutions to the Critical Lane–Emden Equation
The positive solutions to the critical Lane–Emden equation in Rn have been classified completely by the moving plane method. Afterwards, with additional conditions such as limited energy or volume, there is proof that relies entirely on integration by ...

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...
