Ophidiomycosis Prevalence and Disease Ecology in a Natrix tessellata (Laurenti, 1768) Population From Northern Italy

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 3, Page 292-305, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens pose a growing threat to vertebrate biodiversity. In snakes, Ophidiomyces ophidiicola (Oo) has garnered particular concern, although its impact in Europe remains poorly understood. We conducted a season‐long, standardized survey of dice snakes (Natrix tessellata) along the northern shore of Lake Como (Italy) to quantify Oo and

On the domination number and the 2-packing number of Fibonacci cubes and Lucas cubes

open access: yesComputers & Mathematics with Applications, 2011
Let $\Gamma_n$ and $\Lambda_n$ be the $n$-dimensional Fibonacci cube and Lucas cube, respectively. The domination number $\gamma$ of Fibonacci cubes and Lucas cubes is studied. In particular it is proved that $\gamma(\Lambda_{n})$ is bounded below by $\left\lceil\frac{L_{n}-2n}{n-3}\right\rceil$, where $L_n$ is the $n$-th Lucas number.

The Financial Status and Local Credit Market Conditions of U.S. Farms Engaged in Multiple Borrowing

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 266-277, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural producers often borrow from multiple lenders, raising concerns about credit risk and monitoring. We construct detailed farm‐level measures of how debt is distributed across lenders and examine how farm financial status and the physical presence of local lenders are linked to this practice.

A new characterization and a recognition algorithm of Lucas cubes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
Graph Theory Fibonacci and Lucas cubes are induced subgraphs of hypercubes obtained by excluding certain binary strings from the vertex set. They appear as models for interconnection networks, as well as in chemistry. We derive a characterization of Lucas cubes that is based on a peripheral expansion of a unique convex subgraph of an ...

Numerical Simulations of Very Low Velocity Impacts and Ignition of an Explosive Confined by a Thin Case

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 446-455, March 2026.
A low‐speed impact (around one meter per second) of a metallic tip on an explosive confined by a thin plate is simulated. The heat due to friction between the tip and the plate and the one due to the deformation of the plate are not transfered to the ignited zone.

Maximal hypercubes in Fibonacci and Lucas cubes

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2012
The Fibonacci cube $ _n$ is the subgraph of the hypercube induced by the binary strings that contain no two consecutive 1's. The Lucas cube $ _n$ is obtained from $ _n$ by removing vertices that start and end with 1. We characterize maximal induced hypercubes in $ _n$ and $ _n$ and deduce for any $p\leq n$ the number of maximal $p$-dimensional ...

Counting the sum of cubes for Lucas and Gibonacci numbers

open access: yesScience and Technology Indonesia, 2019
Lucas and Gibonacci numbers are  two  sequences of numbers derived from a welknown numbers, Fibonacci numbers. The difference between Lucas and Fibonacci numbers only lies on the first and second elements.  The first element in Lucas numbers  is 2 and the second is 1, and nth element,  n ≥ 3 determined by similar pattern as in the Fibonacci numbers, i ...

JWST/NIRSpec Reveals the Atmospheric Driver of Saturn's Variable Magnetospheric Rotation Rate

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Past measurements of Saturn's upper atmosphere have allowed only a broad scale view of the temperature and ion density structures within the auroral region. However, Saturn's auroral currents include a planetary period current component that is produced by neutral atmospheric flows.

Phylogeography and Contact Zones of the Common Grass Snake in Poland (Squamata: Natricidae: Natrix natrix)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 209-219, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Until now, the genetic identity of common grass snakes (Natrix natrix) in Poland remained poorly understood. This study presents the first comprehensive phylogeographic analysis for Poland using mitochondrial DNA sequences (cyt b and ND4 + tRNAs) and 13 nuclear microsatellite loci.

Diophantine tuples and product sets in shifted powers

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Let k⩾2$k\geqslant 2$ and n≠0$n\ne 0$. A Diophantine tuple with property Dk(n)$D_k(n)$ is a set of positive integers A$A$ such that ab+n$ab+n$ is a k$k$th power for all a,b∈A$a,b\in A$ with a≠b$a\ne b$. Such generalizations of classical Diophantine tuples have been studied extensively.
