Friends or foes? Polyploidy and competition in a grassland geophyte
Previous studies have suggested polyploids may possess a competitive advantage over diploids, due to their larger size, increased vigour or ability to better respond to abiotic stress. However, few studies have tested the effect of polyploidy on competitive ability directly, and only relatively recently has this oversight begun to be addressed. Here we

Inverse problem for nonlinear partial differential equation with high order pseudoparabolic operator
We consider the questions of generalized solvability of inverse problem for nonlinear partial differential equations with high order pseudoparabolic operator by method of separation of variables.

Model-independent determination of the cosmic expansion rate. I. Application to type-Ia supernovae
Aims: In view of the substantial uncertainties regarding the possible dynamics of the dark energy, we aim at constraining the expansion rate of the universe without reference to a specific Friedmann model and its parameters.

A complex network perspective on brain disease
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 ...

Exponential asymptotic stability for linear volterra equations [PDF]
This note studies the exponential asymptotic stability of the zero solution of the linear Volterra equation x˙ (t) = Ax(t) + t 0 K(t − s)x(s) ds by extending results in the paper of Murakami “Exponential Asymptotic Stability for scalar linear ...

ABSTRACT Facilitative interspecific interactions (FIIs) confer benefits to at least one participant without detriment to others. Although often less emphasised than antagonistic interactions in ecological studies, this review highlights the significant ecological role of FIIs across biological scales – from individual behaviours to population ...

Chebyshev polynomials to Volterra-Fredholm integral equations of the first kind
Numerous methods have been studied and discussed for solving ill-posed Volterra integral equations and ill-posed Fredholm integral equations, but rarely for both simultaneously.

A study on the convergence and error bound of solutions to 2D mixed Volterra–Fredholm integral and integro-differential equations via high-order collocation method [PDF]
The integral equation is transformed into systems of algebraic equations using standard collocation points, and then the algebraic equations are solved using matrix inversion.

Computation of semi-analytical solutions of fuzzy nonlinear integral equations
In this article, we use a fuzzy number in its parametric form to solve a fuzzy nonlinear integral equation of the second kind in the crisp case. The main theme of this article is to find a semi-analytical solution of fuzzy nonlinear integral equations. A
