Validating a Target‐Enrichment Design for Capturing Uniparental Haplotypes in Ancient Domesticated Animals

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the last three decades, DNA sequencing of ancient animal osteological assemblages has become an important tool complementing standard archaeozoological approaches to reconstruct the history of animal domestication. However, osteological assemblages of key archaeological contexts are not always available or do not necessarily preserve enough

History entanglement entropy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
A formalism is proposed to describe entangled quantum histories, and their entanglement entropy. We define a history vector, living in a tensor space with basis elements corresponding to the allowed histories, i.e. histories with nonvanishing amplitudes.

Bohmian Histories and Decoherent Histories [PDF]

open access: yesPhys.Rev. A69 (2004) 042111, 2002
The predictions of the Bohmian and the decoherent (or consistent) histories formulations of the quantum mechanics of a closed system are compared for histories -- sequences of alternatives at a series of times. For certain kinds of histories, Bohmian mechanics and decoherent histories may both be formulated in the same mathematical framework within ...
