Is more health always better? Exploring public preferences that violate monotonicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Abásolo and Tsuchiya (2004a) report on an empirical study to elicit public preferences regarding the efficiency-equality trade-off in health, where the majority of respondents violated monotonicity.

Diffusion‐based size determination of solute particles: a method adapted for postsynaptic proteins

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We present a diffusion‐based approach for measuring the size of macromolecules and their complexes, and demonstrate its use on postsynaptic proteins. The method requires fluorescein‐labelled protein samples, a microfluidic device that maintains laminar flow for said samples, a microscope recording the emitted fluorescent signals, and an analytic ...

Monotone clutters

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1993
A clutter (or Sperner system) is \(k\)-monotone if so is the corresponding Boolean function. The author characterizes \(k\)-monotone clutters in terms of excluded minors and applies this result to characterize 2- or 3- monotone matroids.

Monotonicity-based inversion of the fractional Schr\"odinger equation I. Positive potentials

open access: yes, 2019
We consider the inverse problems of for the fractional Schr\"odinger equation by using monotonicity formulas. We provide if-and-only-if monotonicity relations between positive bounded potentials and their associated nonlocal Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps ...

Systemic T Cell Receptor Profiling Reveals Adaptive Immune Activation and Potential Immune Signatures of Diagnosis and Brain Atrophy in Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Epilepsy is increasingly associated with immune dysregulation and inflammation. The T cell receptor (TCR), a key mediator of adaptive immunity, shows repertoire alterations in various immune‐mediated diseases. The unique TCR sequence serves as a molecular barcode for T cells, and clonal expansion accompanied by reduced overall TCR ...

When is a monotone function cyclically monotone?

open access: yesTheoretical Economics, 2021
We provide sufficient conditions for a monotone function with a finite set of outcomes to be cyclically monotone. Using these conditions, we show that any monotone function defined on the domain of gross substitutes is cyclically monotone. The result also extends to the domain of generalized gross substitutes and complements.

Soft‐Layered Composites with Wrinkling‐Activated Multi‐Linear Elastic Behavior, Stress Mitigation, and Enhanced Strain Energy Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, exciting new bi‐/multi‐linear elastic behavior of soft elastic composites that accompany the activation of wrinkling in the embedded interfacial layers is analyzed. The new features and performance of these composite materials, including dramatic enhancements in energy storage, can be tailored by the concentration of interfacial layers ...

Two Approximation Formulas for Gamma Function with Monotonic Remainders

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, two new approximation formulas with monotonic remainders for the gamma function have been presented. Also, we present some numerical comparisons between our new approximation formulas and some known ones, which demonstrate the superiority ...

Lost in Abstraction: Monotonicity in Multi-Threaded Programs (Extended Technical Report) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Monotonicity in concurrent systems stipulates that, in any global state, extant system actions remain executable when new processes are added to the state.
