A Feduzi, JH Runde, C Zappia
Apr 03, 2017
This paper examines the claim that de Finetti and Savage completely rejected the notion of indeterminate, as distinct from imprecise, probabilities. It argues that their examination of imprecise reasoning refers both to...

Combined genetic deletion of GDF15 and FGF21 has modest effects on body weight, hepatic steatosis and insulin resistance in high fat fed mice.
David Savage

Gene-gene and gene-environment interactions in lipodystrophy
Monogenic lipodystrophies are a heterogeneous group of rare disorders characterized by a lack of adipose tissue (AT), all of which predispose patients to the development of insulin resistance and its related metabolic sequelae....

Further Evidence for the Minifilament-eruption Scenario for Solar Polar Coronal Jets
Abstract We examine a sampling of 23 polar-coronal-hole jets. We first identified the jets in soft X-ray (SXR) images from the X-ray telescope (XRT) on the Hinode spacecraft, over...

Computing the quasinormal modes and eigenfunctions for the Teukolsky equation using horizon penetrating, hyperboloidally compactified coordinates
JL Ripley
Jul 08, 2022
We study the quasinormal mode eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for the Teukolsky equation in a horizon penetrating, hyperboloidally compactified (HPHC) coordinate system. Following earlier work by Zengino\u{g}lu (arXiv:1102.2451)...

Geometry driven type II higher dimensional blow-up for the critical heat equation

We consider the problem vt=Δv+|v|p−1vin Ω×(0,T),v=0on ∂Ω×(0,T),v>0in Ω×(0,T). In a domain Ω⊂Rd, d≥7 enjoying special symmetries, we find the first example of a solution with type II blow-up...
