The optimization of solid-state laser cavities requires a deep understanding of the gain module, the most critical laser component. This study proposes a procedure for evaluating the performance of the solid-state laser gain module.

American Equal Protection and Global Convergence [PDF]
Commentators have noted that equal protection doctrine is in a state of transformation. The nature of that transformation, however, is poorly understood. This Article offers a clearer view of the change underway.

Globalization, Convergence, and History [PDF]
There were three epochs of growth experience after the mid-nineteenth century for what is now called the OECD “club”: the late nineteenth century, the middle years between 1914 and 1950, and the late twentieth century. The first and last epochs were ones of overall fast growth, globalization, and convergence.

Globally Convergent Inexact Newton Methods [PDF]
Inexact Newton methods are formulated that incorporate features designed to improve convergence from arbitrary starting points. For each method, a basic global convergence result is established to the effect that, under reasonable assumption, if a sequence of iterates has a limit point at which \(F'\) is invertible, then that limit point is a solution ...

A new, globally convergent Riemannian conjugate gradient method [PDF]
This article deals with the conjugate gradient method on a Riemannian manifold with interest in global convergence analysis. The existing conjugate gradient algorithms on a manifold endowed with a vector transport need the assumption that the vector ...

Event logs play a crucial role in monitoring the status of IT systems. These logs contain text that describes how a system operates using natural language, which can be associated with sentiment polarity.

Financial Globalization, Convergence and Growth [PDF]
Using a panel data set covering the period 1970-2004 and 96 countries, we provide empirical evidence that the composition of foreign capital, measured by the ratio FDI over total liabilities, has a positive effect on growth, directly and through convergence. Developing countries benefit relatively more as their initial GDP is smaller. These results are

Landau-De Gennes theory of nematic liquid\ud crystals: the Oseen-Frank limit and beyond [PDF]
We study global minimizers of a continuum Landau-De Gennes energy functional for nematic liquid crystals, in three-dimensional domains, subject to uniaxial boundary conditions.

Global Business Cycles: Convergence or Decoupling? [PDF]
We analyze the evolution of the degree of global cyclical interdependence over the period 1960–2008. Using a dynamic factor model, we decompose macroeconomic fluctuations in output, consumption, and investment into a global factor, factors specific to country groups, and country‐specific factors. We find that during 1985–2008, there is some convergence

Global convergence of quorum-sensing networks [PDF]
In many natural synchronization phenomena, communication between individual elements occurs not directly, but rather through the environment. One of these instances is bacterial quorum sensing, where bacteria release signaling molecules in the environment which in turn are sensed and used for population coordination.
