M-theory Compactifications on Manifolds with G2 Structure

open access: yes, 2004
In this paper we study M-theory compactifications on manifolds of G2 structure. By computing the gravitino mass term in four dimensions we derive the general form for the superpotential which appears in such compactifications and show that beside the ...

A transferable approach for quantifying benthic fish sizes and densities in annotated underwater images

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 145-159, January 2025.
Abstract Benthic fishes are a common target of scientific monitoring but are difficult to quantify because of their close association to bottom habitats that are hard to access. Advances in image‐acquisition technologies, machine vision and deep learning have made capturing and quantifying fishes with cameras increasingly feasible.

Rigidity theorems of Lagrangian submanifolds in the homogeneous nearly K\"ahler $\mathbb{S}^6(1)$

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper, we study Lagrangian submanifolds of the homogeneous nearly K\"ahler $6$-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^6(1)$. As the main result, we derive a Simons' type integral inequality in terms of the second fundamental form for compact ...

Generic Riemannian Submersions from nearly K¨aehler Manifolds

open access: yesJournal of the Tensor Society, 2007
We study generic Riemannian submersions from nearly K¨aehler manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. We investigate conditions for the integrability of various distributions arising for generic Riemannian submersions and also obtain conditions for leaves to be totally geodesic foliations.

Effects of pre‐treatment, historical age, and sample characteristics on the stable isotope analyses of killer whale (Orcinus orca) bone

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 38, Issue 19, 15 October 2024.
Rationale Stable isotope analysis of bone provides insight into animal foraging and allows for ecological reconstructions over time, however pre‐treatment is required to isolate collagen. Pre‐treatments typically consist of demineralization to remove inorganic components and/or lipid extraction to remove fats, but these protocols can differentially ...

What Is the Ideal Dimension of Law?

open access: yesRatio Juris, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 210-229, September 2024.
Abstract Various authors have claimed that law has an ideal dimension owed to a claim to correctness. Against this thesis, this article argues that there are several ideal dimensions of law, namely, a moral, a legal, and an ontological one. All of them are independent of a claim to correctness.

Nongeometric Flux Compactifications

open access: yes, 2005
We investigate a simple class of type II string compactifications which incorporate nongeometric "fluxes" in addition to "geometric flux" and the usual H-field and R-R fluxes. These compactifications are nongeometric analogues of the twisted torus.

The convenience yield under commodity financialization

open access: yesJournal of Futures Markets, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 631-652, April 2024.
Abstract A number of papers have dealt with commodity financialization finding strong evidence for its existence and its effect on commodity prices and volatility. We chose convenience yield (CY) to study the effect of commodity financialization based on the theory of storage and on the argument that CY resembles a call option.

Yang-Mills Flows on Nearly Kähler Manifolds and G 2-Instantons [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2010
We consider Lie(G)-valued G-invariant connections on bundles over spaces G/H, RxG/H and R^2xG/H, where G/H is a compact nearly Kaehler six-dimensional homogeneous space, and the manifolds RxG/H and R^2xG/H carry G_2- and Spin(7)-structures, respectively.
