Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

A Coarse Geometric Approach to Graph Layout Problems
Journal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We define a range of new coarse geometric invariants based on various graph–theoretic measures of complexity for finite graphs, including treewidth, pathwidth, cutwidth and bandwidth. We prove that, for bounded degree graphs, these invariants can be used to define functions which satisfy a strong monotonicity property, namely, they are ...
