Reducible braids and Garside theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We show that reducible braids which are, in a Garside-theoretical sense, as simple as possible within their conjugacy class, are also as simple as possible in a geometric sense.

Safety and efficacy of novel oblique-viewing scope for B2-endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Endoscopy
Background/Aims Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) performed at the intrahepatic bile duct segment 3 (B3) is widely used for biliary drainage.

Nurses' Use of Ultrasound Location for Puncturing Arteriovenous Fistulas in Hemodialysis

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2022
Puncturing an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients is a source of difficulty even for experienced dialysis nurses. The objective of this study was to compare the failure rate of AVF puncture by the usual technique (visual or ...

Mirrors of 3d Sicilian theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the compactification of the 6d N=(2,0) theories, or equivalently of M-theory 5-branes, on a punctured Riemann surface times a circle. This gives rise to what we call 3d N=4 Sicilian theories, and we find that their mirror theories are star ...

Revision of the South African endemic bee genus Redivivoides Michener, 1981 (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Melittidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The South African endemic bee genus Redivivoides Michener, 1981 is revised and redefined. The genus comprises seven species, six of which are described here as new: Redivivoides capensis sp. nov. ♀♂, R. eardleyi sp. nov. ♀, R. kamieskroonensis sp. nov. ♀,

Local Anesthesia in Neonatal Lumbar Puncture

open access: yesPediatric Neurology Briefs, 1993
The success rate of lumbar punctures was compared in neonates allocated prospectively to 0.2 to 0.5 mL of 1% lidocaine anesthesia (n=48) or a control group (n=52) in a study at the Albany Medical College of Union University, Albany, New York.

Farrell cohomology of low genus pure mapping class groups with punctures

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper, we calculate the p-torsion of the Farrell cohomology for low genus pure mapping class groups with punctures, where p is an odd prime. Here, `low genus' means g=1,2,3; and `pure mapping class groups with punctures' means the mapping class ...

Aspects of irregular punctures via holography

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We present new families of AdS 5 solutions in M-theory preserving 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supersymmetry. We perform a systematic analysis of holographic observables for these solutions, providing evidence for an interpretation in terms of 4d ...

Quantum Liouville Theory On The Riemann Sphere With $n>3$ Punctures

open access: yes, 1992
We have studied the quantum Liouville theory on the Riemann sphere with n>3 punctures. While considering the theory on the Riemann surfaces with n=4 punctures, the quantum theory near an arbitrary but fixed puncture can be obtained via canonical ...
