Tighter monogamy inequalities of multiqubit entanglement

open access: yes, 2023
Multipartite entanglement holds great importance in quantum information processing. The distribution of entanglement among subsystems can be characterized by monogamy relations.

Evolution of ungulate mating systems: Integrating social and environmental factors

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Ungulates exhibit diverse mating systems that range from monogamous pair territories to highly polygynous leks. We review mating systems and behaviors across ungulates and offer a new approach synthesizing how interacting factors may shape those mating ...

Weaponry Investment in the Socially Monogamous Snapping Shrimp Alpheus brasileiro (Decapoda: Alpheidae)

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weapons are morphological structures used by animals in various contexts, especially in intra‐specific contests and visual displays. In snapping shrimps of the genus Alpheus, particularly the monogamous species Alpheus brasileiro, both sexes bear enlarged chelipeds, potentially conferring advantages in mate competition or territorial defence ...

Imaging, Behavior and Endocrine Analysis of “Jealousy” in a Monogamous Primate

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2017
Understanding the neurobiology of social bonding in non-human primates is a critical step in understanding the evolution of monogamy, as well as understanding the neural substrates for emotion and behavior.

When and why to give shorebirds a head start

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

On Strong Monogamy Conjecture in Four-Qubit System

open access: yes, 2015
Monogamy is a defining feature of entanglement, having far reaching applications. Recently, Regula \textit{et.al.} in Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{113}, 110501(2014) have proposed a stronger version of monogamy relation for concurrence.

Sexual dimorphism in striatal dopaminergic responses promotes monogamy in social songbirds

open access: yeseLife, 2017
In many songbird species, males sing to attract females and repel rivals. How can gregarious, non-territorial songbirds such as zebra finches, where females have access to numerous males, sustain monogamy?

Gay Men’s (Non)Monogamy Ideals and Lived Experience

open access: yes, 2016
The current qualitative study uses a queer-feminist lens to examine variations in ideals and lived experience related to (non)monogamy among a convenience sample of 43 gay men in the U.S., primarily from the southeast.

Leadership Under Risk: Male Vervet Monkeys' (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) Roles in Group Progression Across Potentially High‐Risk Terrain

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
Male vervet monkeys were more likely to lead group progressions than females or juveniles, especially during potentially riskier crossing situations, i.e., rivers. Dominant males who had not yet sired offspring were the most likely to lead progressions.
