On contact numbers of totally separable unit sphere packings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Contact numbers are natural extensions of kissing numbers. In this paper we give estimates for the number of contacts in a totally separable packing of n unit balls in Euclidean d-space for all n>1 and d>1.Comment: 11 ...

Limit theorems for iteration stable tessellations

open access: yes, 2013
The intent of this paper is to describe the large scale asymptotic geometry of iteration stable (STIT) tessellations in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which form a rather new, rich and flexible class of random tessellations considered in stochastic geometry.

An Overcurrent Suppression Strategy for Distributed Photovoltaic Inverters Under Unbalanced Faults Based on Adaptive Linear Active Disturbance Rejection Control

open access: yesIET Smart Grid, Volume 9, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
After distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems are connected to the distribution network, the overcurrent problem caused by transient faults instantaneously threatens the safety of PV inverters and other equipment. This paper proposes a comprehensive control method that combines active‐loop adaptive linear active disturbance rejection control (A‐LADRC ...

The Parity Argument for Extended Consciousness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Andy Clark and David Chalmers (1998) argue that certain mental states and processes can be partially constituted by objects located beyond one’s brain and body: this is their extended mind thesis (EM).

Volume distortion in groups

open access: yes, 2010
Given a space $Y$ in $X$, a cycle in $Y$ may be filled with a chain in two ways: either by restricting the chain to $Y$ or by allowing it to be anywhere in $X$.

Bond covenants and the speed of corporate capital structure adjustment: Evidence from China

open access: yesJournal of Financial Research, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1882-1914, Winter 2025.
Abstract We investigate the effect of bond covenants on the speed of corporate capital structure adjustment. Based on manually collected bond covenant information from publicly listed Chinese firms between 2007 and 2019, we construct an index that measures the intensity of corporate bond covenants.

Comments on the floating body and the hyperplane conjecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We provide a reformulation of the hyperplane conjecture (the slicing problem) in terms of the floating body and give upper and lower bounds on the logarithmic Hausdorff distance between an arbitrary convex body $K\subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$\ and the convex ...

Growing Season Precipitation Percolates to Groundwater Past Older Water in Storage Across a Temperate Agricultural Catchment

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract How water is stored within‐ and released from‐the vadose zone controls groundwater recharge, plant water uptake, and the movement of dissolved solutes (nutrients, carbon, pollutants). The goal of this study was to determine the age of water recharging groundwater during the growing season in a temperate agricultural catchment. We measured soil

Bridging the Semantic Gap with SQL Query Logs in Natural Language Interfaces to Databases

open access: yes, 2019
A critical challenge in constructing a natural language interface to database (NLIDB) is bridging the semantic gap between a natural language query (NLQ) and the underlying data. Two specific ways this challenge exhibits itself is through keyword mapping
