Morphological diversity of saber-tooth upper canines and its functional implications. [PDF]

open access: yesAnat Rec (Hoboken)
Abstract Elongated upper canine teeth, commonly known as saber‐teeth, have evolved three times within the sub‐order Feliformia. The species that wielded them flourished throughout the Cenozoic and have historically been separated into two morphological groups: the dirk‐tooths with longer, flatter canines, and the scimitar‐tooths with shorter, serrated ...

Super parallel immersions in Euclidean space

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2002
Two submanifolds of Euclidean n-space En are called super parallel if the affine normal spaces are homothetic at the corresponding points. Characterizations are given for the action of conformal transformation on super parallel mates.

Spherically Symmetric, Self-Similar Spacetimes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Self-similar spacetimes are of importance to cosmology and to gravitational collapse problems. We show that self-similarity or the existence of a homothetic Killing vector field for spherically symmetric spacetimes implies the separability of the ...

Welfare and Output with Income Effects and Taste Shocks

open access: yes, 2021
We provide a non-parametric characterization of how welfare responds to changes in budget and production possibility sets when preferences are non-homothetic or subject to shocks, in both partial and general equilibrium.

N = 2 supersymmetric sigma-models and duality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
For two families of four-dimensional off-shell N = 2 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma-models constructed originally in projective superspace, we develop their formulation in terms of N = 1 chiral superfields.

METHODOLOGICAL BASIS OF SOLVING SPHERE PACKING PROBLEM: TRANSFORMATION OF KNAPSACK PROBLEM TO OPEN DIMENSION PROBLEM

open access: yesAdvanced Information Systems, 2019
The subject matter of the paper is the problem of optimal packing of spheres of different dimension into a container of arbitrary geometric shape. The goal is to construct a mathematical model which associates different statements of the problem.

Stability optimization for a simultaneously twisted and compressed rod

open access: yesMultidiscipline Modeling in Materials and Structures, 2022
PurposeThe authors search the optimal distribution of bending flexure along the axis of the rod. For the solution of the actual problem, the stability equations take into account all possible convex, simply connected shapes of the cross-section.

ON D-HOMOTHETIC DEFORMATION OF TRANS-SASAKIAN STRUCTURE

open access: yes, 2008
Abs t rac t . The object of the present paper is to study a transformation called Dhomothetic deformation of trans-Sasakian structure. Among others it is shown that in a trans-Sasakian manifold, the Ricci operator Q does not commute with the structure ...

Self-similar cosmologies in 5D: spatially flat anisotropic models

open access: yes, 2008
In the context of theories of Kaluza-Klein type, with a large extra dimension, we study self-similar cosmological models in 5D that are homogeneous, anisotropic and spatially flat.
