Numerics on the trajectory of nodule displacements by external compressions of the breast [PDF]
We present a fast and reliable algorithm that gives precise location of breast tumours for a partial mastectomy. Our algorithm is fully implemented in the Surface Evolver, which is a general-purpose simulator of physical experiments. By starting from the X-rays images that show a tumour one takes its 2D coordinates in each view.

A note on Nil and Jacobson radicals in graded rings [PDF]
It was shown by Bergman that the Jacobson radical of a Z-graded ring is homogeneous. This paper shows that the analogous result holds for nil rings, namely, that the nil radical of a Z-graded ring is homogeneous. It is obvious that a subring of a nil ring is nil, but generally a subring of a Jacobson radical ring need not be a Jacobson radical ring ...
