Permafrost Distribution in the Canadian Rockies: Key Variables Influencing Patch‐Scale Variability

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of permafrost in mountainous regions is influenced by various factors such as topography, climate, vegetation, and substrate. Despite the existence of comprehensive permafrost maps at national and global levels, they fail to accurately represent the patch‐scale (e.g., < 25 m) permafrost distribution in characteristic ...

Do Single‐Sex STEM Programs Have Merit? If So, for Whom, on What Measures?

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Single‐sex STEM programs—defined here as voluntary, gender‐segregated extracurricular or supplemental activities (e.g., summer camps, workshops, robotics clubs, internships, or citizen science initiatives)—have experienced heightened popularity and scrutiny amid efforts to increase diversity in STEM fields.

Models for Quadratic Algebras Associated with Second Order Superintegrable Systems in 2D

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2008
There are 13 equivalence classes of 2D second order quantum and classical superintegrable systems with nontrivial potential, each associated with a quadratic algebra of hidden symmetries.

Contractions of 2D 2nd Order Quantum Superintegrable Systems and the Askey Scheme for Hypergeometric Orthogonal Polynomials

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2013
We show explicitly that all 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions are limiting cases of a single system: the generic 3-parameter potential on the 2-sphere, S9 in our listing.

Giant Wilson loops and AdS2/dCFT1

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
The 1/2-BPS Wilson loop in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is an important and well-studied example of conformal defect. In particular, much work has been done for the correlation functions of operator insertions on the Wilson ...

Solutions of convex Bethe Ansatz equations and the zeros of (basic) hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials

open access: yes, 2019
Via the solutions of systems of algebraic equations of Bethe Ansatz type, we arrive at bounds for the zeros of orthogonal (basic) hypergeometric polynomials belonging to the Askey-Wilson, Wilson and continuous Hahn families.Comment: 21 pages ...

GenL: an extensible fitting program for Laue oscillations and whole‐pattern fitting

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
We present GenL, a flexible program utilizing differential evolution within a genetic algorithm that can be used to simulate and/or fit X‐ray diffraction data from epitaxial thin films exhibiting Laue oscillations.GenL is a flexible program that can be used to simulate and/or fit X‐ray reflectivity and X‐ray diffraction data from epitaxial thin films ...

The Relationship between Zhedanov's Algebra AW(3) and the Double Affine Hecke Algebra in the Rank One Case

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2007
Zhedanov's algebra AW(3) is considered with explicit structure constants such that, in the basic representation, the first generator becomes the second order q-difference operator for the Askey-Wilson polynomials. It is proved that this representation is

Bivariate Bannai-Ito polynomials

open access: yes, 2018
A two-variable extension of the Bannai-Ito polynomials is presented. They are obtained via $q\to-1$ limits of the bivariate $q$-Racah and Askey-Wilson orthogonal polynomials introduced by Gasper and Rahman. Their orthogonality relation is obtained. These

The factorization method for the Askey–Wilson polynomials

open access: yesJournal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 1999
A special Infeld-Hall factorization is given for the Askey-Wilson second order q-difference operator. It is then shown how to deducd a generalization of the corresponding Askey-Wilson polynomials.
