Query-Monotonic Turing Reductions [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 We study reductions that limit the extreme adaptivity of Turing reductions. In particular, we study reductions that make a rapid, structured progression through the set to which they are reducing: Each query is strictly longer (shorter) than the previous one. We call these reductions query-increasing (query-decreasing) Turing reductions.

The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and Its Indicators—Where Does Health Fit in?
International Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2017 The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 recognizes the strong connection between health and disasters and promotes the concept of health resilience throughout.

Heuristic algorithms for finding distribution reducts in probabilistic rough set model [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Attribute reduction is one of the most important topics in rough set theory. Heuristic attribute reduction algorithms have been presented to solve the attribute reduction problem. It is generally known that fitness functions play a key role in developing heuristic attribute reduction algorithms.

Reduction of abelian varieties [PDF]
arXiv, 1996 We study semistable reduction and torsion points of abelian varieties. In particular, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction. We also study N\'eron models of abelian varieties with potentially good reduction and torsion points of small order.

Constructive characterization of the reduction numbers [PDF]
arXiv, 2002 We present a constructive description of minimal reductions with a given reduction number. This description has interesting consequences on the minimal reduction number, the big reduction number, and the core of an ideal. In particular, it helps solve a conjecture of Vasconcelos on the relationship between reduction numbers and initial ideals.

Electro-Thermal Modeling of Metal-Oxide Arrester under Power Frequency Applied Voltages
Energies, 2018 Metal-oxide arresters (MOAs) are used to absorb the electrical energy resulting from overvoltages in power systems. However, temperature rises caused by the absorbed energy can lead to the electrothermal failure of MOAs.

Zero divisors in reduction algebras [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 We establish the absence of zero divisors in the reduction algebra of a Lie algebra g with respect to its reductive Lie sub-algebra k. The class of reduction algebras include the Lie algebras (they arise when k is trivial) and the Gelfand--Kirillov conjecture extends naturally to the reduction algebras.

AC Flashover Performance of 10 kV Rod-Plane Air-Gapped Arresters under Rain Conditions
Energies, 2018 According to operational experience of power systems, the outdoor insulation strength can be reduced due to the effect of rain. Till now, little work has been done to investigate the flashover performance of air gapped arresters under rain conditions ...

A Simple Deterministic Reduction for the Gap Minimum Distance of Code Problem [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 We present a simple deterministic gap-preserving reduction from SAT to the Minimum Distance of Code Problem over $\F_2$. We also show how to extend the reduction to work over any finite field. Previously a randomized reduction was known due to Dumer, Micciancio, and Sudan, which was recently derandomized by Cheng and Wan.
