Adaptive coloration in pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca)—The devil is in the detail
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Understanding the origin and persistence of phenotypic variation within and among populations is a major goal in evolutionary biology. However, the eagerness to find unadulterated explanatory models in combination with difficulties in publishing ...

Scale-dependent rigidity of polymer-ornamented membranes [PDF]
Eur. Phys. J. E 9, 349 (2002), 2002 We study the fluctuation spectrum of fluid membranes carrying grafted polymers. Contrary to usual descriptions, we find that the modifications induced by the polymers cannot be reduced to the renormalization of the membrane bending rigidity. Instead we show that the ornamented membrane exhibits a scale-dependent elastic modulus that we evaluate.

Back to the Eneolithic: Exploring the Rudki-type ornaments from Poland
Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 2019 For a long time, the Eneolithic attribution of the Rudki-type double spiral ornaments was contested by a wide academic audience, and therefore, this new and extraordinary category of the copper metalwork seemed to have fallen into scientific oblivion. In

The computational generative patterns in Indonesian batik [PDF]
, 2008 The paper discusses the terminology behind batik crafting and showed the aspects of self-similarity in its ornaments. Even though a product of batik cannot be reduced merely into its decorative properties, it is shown that computation can capture some ...

Transporting Functions across Ornaments [PDF]
J. Funct. Prog. 24 (2014) 316-383, 2012 Programming with dependent types is a blessing and a curse. It is a blessing to be able to bake invariants into the definition of data-types: we can finally write correct-by-construction software. However, this extreme accuracy is also a curse: a data-type is the combination of a structuring medium together with a special purpose logic.
