Curvature estimates for the Ricci flow I [PDF]

Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations, 2007
In this paper we present several curvature estimates and convergence results for solutions of the Ricci flow. The curvature estimates depend on smallness of certain local space-time integrals of the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor, while the convergence results require finiteness of space-time integrals of the norm of the Riemann curvature tensor.

Policy Evaluation for Climate Mitigations in the European Agricultural Sector—A Comparison of Policy Options at Micro and Macro Level

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to discuss the micro‐ and macro‐outcomes for the standard neoclassical carbon tax (whose burden falls on the producers) versus the implication of a budget neutral, performance‐based EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) focusing on non‐CO2 emission (N2O and CH4, measured in CO2eq) reduction, especially in the ...

Forman–Ricci communicability curvature of graphs and networks

European Journal of Applied Mathematics
Geometric parameters in general and curvature in particular play a fundamental role in our understanding of the structure and functioning of real-world networks. Here, the discretisation of the Ricci curvature proposed by Forman is adapted to capture the

Basophil Activation Test as Biomarker of Severity and Threshold of Allergic Reactions to Cow's Milk During Oral Food Challenges

Allergy, EarlyView.
The threshold of reactivity during fresh milk challenges was 70% lower than that of baked milk challenges, reflecting the higher allergenicity of fresh milk. BAT was the only biomarker statistically significantly different between severity and threshold groups, for baked milk and fresh milk allergies, respectively.

A complex network perspective on brain disease

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT If brain anatomy and dynamics have a complex network structure as it has become standard to posit, it is reasonable to assume that such a structure should play a key role not only in brain function but also in brain dysfunction. However, exactly how network structure is implicated in brain damage and whether at least some pathologies can be ...

POSITIVITY OF RICCI CURVATURE UNDER THE KÄHLER–RICCI FLOW [PDF]

Communications in Contemporary Mathematics, 2006
In each complex dimension n ≥ 2, we construct complete Kähler manifolds of bounded curvature and non-negative Ricci curvature whose Kähler–Ricci evolutions immediately acquire Ricci curvature of mixed sign.

On the Topological Classification of Four-Dimensional Steady Gradient Ricci Solitons with Nonnegative Sectional Curvature

Mathematics
In this paper, we study the topology of steady gradient Ricci solitons with nonnegative sectional curvature. We apply a characterization theorem for the fundamental group of a positively curved steady gradient Ricci soliton that admits a critical point ...

Representativeness of the Natura 2000 network for preserving plant biodiversity in the European Union

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network of protected areas is one of the main tools for area‐based conservation in the European Union (EU), yet its role in preserving plant biodiversity requires better understanding. We examined data kept in the European Vegetation Archive from over 1.2 million vegetation plots and obtained over 14.2 million plant ...

ESG Thematic Bonds in Emerging Markets: Risk, Uncertainty, and Ambiguity

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the impact of risk aversion, ambiguity, and uncertainty (geopolitical and economic) on the ESG thematic bond markets in emerging countries. We analyze ESG sovereign (both USD and local currency denominated) and corporate bond markets on the aggregate and regional levels.
