The Effect of Sustainability Information on Consumers' Preferences for Fungus‐Resistant Grape Wine
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The demand for sustainable food production is intensifying the need to reduce the environmental and social impacts of pesticide use in agriculture. In viticulture, where dependence on pesticides is high because grapevines are susceptible to fungal diseases, fungus‐resistant grape varieties (PIWI) offer a promising strategy to reduce chemical ...

A non-Lévy random walk in chacma baboons: what does it mean? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The Lévy walk is found from amoebas to humans and has been described as the optimal strategy for food research. Recent results, however, have generated controversy about this conclusion since animals also display alternatives to the Lévy walk such as the

Levy Systems for Time-Changed Processes
The Annals of Probability, 1977 After a study of the process $Y$, obtained from a right process $X$ by time-changing it with respect to a continuous additive functional $A$, we relate the jumps of $Y$ in $\Phi = \operatorname{sup} A$ to the excursions of $X$ out of $\Phi$ and to the jumps of $X$ inside $\Phi$.

On exit times of Levy-driven Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes [PDF]
Statistics & Probability Letters, 2008 We prove two martingale identities which involve exit times of Levy-driven Ornstein--Uhlenbeck processes. Using these identities we find an explicit formula for the Laplace transform of the exit time under the assumption that positive jumps of the Levy process are exponentially distributed.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT ADNP‐related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa syndrome (ADNP‐related HVDAS) is a single gene form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) caused by pathogenic sequence variants in the activity‐dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) gene. In addition to ASD, ADNP‐related HVDAS is associated with a wide range of cognitive, behavioral, and physical health ...

The Growth of Random Walks and Levy Processes
The Annals of Probability, 1981 Let $\{X_i\}$ be a sequence of independent, identically distributed non-degenerate random variables taking values in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $S_n = \sum^n_{i = 1} X_i, M_n = \max_{1\leqq i \leqq n} |S_i|$. Define for $x > 0, G(x) = P\{| X_1 | > x\}, K(x) = x^{-2}E(| X_1 |^2 1\{| X_1 | \leq x\}), M(x) = x^{-1} |E(X_1 1\{| X_1 | \leq x\})|,$ and $h(x) = G(x) +

The Legislation for Providing Animal Access in Australian Residential Aged Care: It's Not a Zoo
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Providing meaningful animal contact to residential aged care facility (RACF) residents is problematic due to a lack of animal policies and National Guidelines. This paper examines how Australian Legislation could influence access to animal contact in RACFs and aims to answer the question, ‘Could current Legislation facilitate the development ...

Adaptive Lévy processes and area-restricted search in human foraging. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 A considerable amount of research has claimed that animals' foraging behaviors display movement lengths with power-law distributed tails, characteristic of Lévy flights and Lévy walks.
