We introduce a variant of de Bruijn words that we call perfect necklaces. Fix a finite alphabet. Recall that a word is a finite sequence of symbols in the alphabet and a circular word, or necklace, is the equivalence class of a word under rotations. For positive integers k and n, we call a necklace (k,n)-perfect if each word of length k occurs exactly ...

Massive superfluid vortices and vortex necklaces on a planar annulus [PDF]
We study a superfluid in a planar annulus hosting vortices with massive cores. An analytical point-vortex model shows that the massive vortices may perform radial oscillations on top of the usual uniform precession of their massless counterpart. Beyond a

Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials in Bracelets and Necklaces: Radiological Risk Evaluation. [PDF]
A particular category of jewelry is one involving bracelets and necklaces that are deliberately made to contain naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM)—purveyors making unsubstantiated claims for health benefits from the release of negative ions.

Polyelectrolytes in poor solvents show a necklace structure where collapsed polymer pearls are linked to stretched strings. In the present paper the elasticity of such chains is studied in detail. Different deformation regimes are addressed. The first is the continuous regime, where many pearls are present. A continuous force extension relation ship is

Background Baltic amber teething necklaces have been popularized as a safe and natural alternative to conventional or pharmacological medicines for the management of teething pain. However, claims made by retailers regarding the efficacy and mechanism of

Monopoles, strings, and necklaces in SO(10) and E 6 [PDF]
We employ a variety of symmetry breaking patterns in SO(10) and E 6 Grand Unified Theories to demonstrate the appearance of topological defects including magnetic monopoles, strings, and necklaces.

SPLITTING LOOPS AND NECKLACES: VARIANTS OF THE SQUARE PEG PROBLEM [PDF]
Toeplitz conjectured that any simple planar loop inscribes a square. Here we prove variants of Toeplitz’s square peg problem. We prove Hadwiger’s 1971 conjecture that any simple loop in $3$-space inscribes a parallelogram.

Exploring the factors driving higher interactions in false amber necklace posts on Facebook [PDF]
The consumption and sharing of information on social media contribute to the circulation of false health content. In this sense, popular belief-driven posts recommending the use of amber necklaces to prevent symptoms of teething can be easily found on ...

The purity of set-systems related to Grassmann necklaces [PDF]
Studying the problem of quasicommuting quantum minors, Leclerc and Zelevinsky introduced in 1998 the notion of weakly separated sets in $[n]:=\{1,\ldots, n\}$.
