Whenever some phenomenon can be represented as a graph or a network it seems pertinent to explore how much the mathematical properties of that network impact the phenomenon. In this study we explore the same philosophy in the context of immunology.

Ionization balance of non-LTE plasmas from an average-atom collisional-radiative model
We present a simplified version of an average-atom collisional-radiative model employing both local-thermodynamic-equilibrium average-atom and isolated-ion atomic data.

Appreciating mathematical structure for all
We take mathematical structure to mean the identification of general properties which are instantiated in particular situations as relationships between elements or subsets of elements of a set. Because we take the view that appreciating structure is powerfully productive, attention to structure should be an essential part of mathematical teaching and ...

Ahab's Arithmetic; or, the mathematics of Moby-Dick [PDF]
Herman Melville's novel Moby-Dick contains a surprising number of mathematical allusions. In this article we explore some of these, as well as discussing the questions that naturally follow: why did Melville choose to use so much mathematical imagery? How did Melville come to acquire the level of mathematical knowledge shown in the novel?

Mathematical Artifacts Have Politics: The Journey from Examples to Embedded Ethics [PDF]
We extend Langdon Winner's idea that artifacts have politics into the realm of mathematics. To do so, we first provide a list of examples showing the existence of mathematical artifacts that have politics. In the second step, we provide an argument that shows that all mathematical artifacts have politics.

Supersymmetry and Lie groups [PDF]
We construct all vacuum states of $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills quantum mechanics (for SU(N) group) and discuss their origin from the SU(N) real cohomology.
