Amenable groups and measure concentration on spheres
It is proved that a discrete group $G$ is amenable if and only if for every unitary representation of $G$ in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\cal H$ the maximal uniform compactification of the unit sphere $\s_{\cal H}$ has a $G$-fixed point, that ...

Modelling connectivity at a regional scale during seasonal movements of the greater horseshoe bat
Studying pathways during high mobility periods is one of the main missing elements for effective conservation, particularly for small species such as bats. An acoustic, stratified sampling at both local and large scale provided sufficient spatial and temporal accuracy to model connectivity throughout the life cycle of bats. This framework can easily be
