Targeted sequencing identifies genetic polymorphisms of flavin-containing monooxygenase genes contributing to susceptibility of nicotine dependence in European American and African American [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Smoking is a leading cause of preventable death. Early studies based on samples of twins have linked the lifetime smoking practices to genetic predisposition.

Functional Dependence in Strategic Games (extended abstract) [PDF]
The paper studies properties of functional dependencies between strategies of players in Nash equilibria of multi-player strategic games. The main focus is on the properties of functional dependencies in the context of a fixed dependency graph for pay ...

Semiclassical Electron Correlation in Density-Matrix Time-Propagation
Lack of memory (locality in time) is a major limitation of almost all present time-dependent density functional approximations. By using semiclassical dynamics to compute correlation effects within a density-matrix functional approach, we incorporate ...

Nonlinear second order evolution equations with state-dependent delays
We consider second order quasilinear parabolic equations where also the main part contains functional dependence and state-dependent delay on the unknown function. Existence and some qualitative properties of the solutions are shown.

Functional central limit theorem for negatively dependent heavy-tailed stationary infinitely divisible processes generated by conservative flows [PDF]
We prove a functional central limit theorem for partial sums of symmetric stationary long range dependent heavy tailed infinitely divisible processes with a certain type of negative dependence. Previously only positive dependence could be treated.

A note on the dependence of solutions on functional parameters for nonlinear sturm-liouville problems [PDF]
We deal with the existence and the continuous dependence of solutions on functional parameters for boundary valued problems containing the Sturm-Liouville equation.

Renormalization of Schr\"odinger Equation and Wave Functional for Rapidly Oscillating Fields in QCD
Background field method is used to perform renormalization group transformations for Schr\"odinger equation in QCD. The dependence of the ground state wave functional on rapidly oscillating fields is found.Comment: 8pp ...

Comment on "Self-Purification in Semiconductor Nanocrystals"
In a recent Letter [PRL 96, 226802 (2006)], Dalpian and Chelikowsky claimed that formation energies of Mn impurities in CdSe nanocrystals increase as the size of the nanocrystal decreases, and argued that this size dependence leads to "self-purification"
