Corneal biomechanical changes following toric soft contact lens wear

Journal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research, 2016
Purpose: To determine the effect of using toric soft contact lenses on corneal biomechanical properties. Methods: We enrolled 33 healthy patients with mean age of 23.18 ± 4.06 and minimal cylinder power of 1 D (-1.98 ± 0.808 SD) and negative history of ...

Bubbling Calabi-Yau geometry from matrix models

, 2008
We study bubbling geometry in topological string theory. Specifically, we analyse Chern-Simons theory on both the 3-sphere and lens spaces in the presence of a Wilson loop insertion of an arbitrary representation.

Black Holes, Instanton Counting on Toric Singularities and q-Deformed Two-Dimensional Yang-Mills Theory

, 2006
We study the relationship between instanton counting in N=4 Yang-Mills theory on a generic four-dimensional toric orbifold and the semi-classical expansion of q-deformed Yang-Mills theory on the blowups of the minimal resolution of the orbifold ...

Beta-ensembles for toric orbifold partition function

, 2011
We investigate combinatorics of the instanton partition function for the generic four dimensional toric orbifolds. It is shown that the orbifold projection can be implemented by taking the inhomogeneous root of unity limit of the q-deformed partition ...
