The Cantor Set Before Cantor
Nicholas A Scoville
Jan 01, 0001
A special construction used in both analysis and topology today is known as the Cantor set. Cantor used this set in a paper in the 1880s. Yet it appeared as early as 1875 in a paper by the Irish mathematician Henry John Stephen...

Diffusion on middle-ξ Cantor sets
In this paper, we study C^ζ -calculus on generalized Cantor sets, which have self-similar properties and fractional dimensions that exceed their topological dimensions. Functions with fractal support are not differentiable or...
Cantor spectrum of graphene in magnetic fields
S Becker, R Han, S Jitomirskaya
Aug 16, 2020
We consider a quantum graph as a model of graphene in magnetic fields and give a complete analysis of the spectrum, for all constant fluxes. In particular, we show that if the reduced magnetic flux $\Phi / 2\pi$ through a...
Beyond Sticks and Stones
Violent crime has been commonplace in Latin America over the past decades. While existing research has made progress in explaining the rationale and outcomes of government coercive strategies against crime, it has overlooked the...
Should different countries participating in PISA interpret socioeconomic background in the same way? A measurement invariance approach
It has been claimed that there is a lack of theory-driven constructs and a lack of cross-country comparability in International Large-Scale Assessment (ILSA)’s socio-economic background scales. To address these issues, a new...

Linear latent force models using Gaussian processes.
Purely data-driven approaches for machine learning present difficulties when data are scarce relative to the complexity of the model or when the model is forced to extrapolate. On the other hand, purely mechanistic approaches...

Ten Years of SME E-Commerce Performance Factors and Metrics, 2011-2021
Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) generate 90% of employment and contribute more than 50% to the world product, where e-commerce (EC) is fundamental to their development. In this study, a systematic review of literature from...
Topology From Analysis
Nicholas A Scoville
Jan 01, 0001
Topology is often described as having no notion of distance, but a notion of nearness. How can such a thing be possible? Isn't this just a distinction without a difference? In this project, we will discover the notion of...

π-Clamp-Mediated Homo- and Heterodimerization of Single-Domain Antibodies via Site-Specific Homobifunctional Conjugation.
Post-translational protein-protein conjugation produces bioconjugates that are unavailable via genetic fusion approaches. A method for preparing protein-protein conjugates using π-clamp-mediated cysteine arylation with...
Predicting the Success of a Startup in Information Technology Through Machine Learning
Predicting the success of a startup in information technology (SIT) is a very complex problem due to the diverse factors and uncertainty that affects it. The focus of automatic learning (ML) is promising because it presents good...
Socioeconomic position and cardiovascular mortality in 63 million adults from Brazil.
BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that cardiovascular disease exhibits a 'social cross-over', from greater risk in higher socioeconomic groups to lower socioeconomic groups, on economic development, but robust evidence is...
Expectation of reward differentially modulates executive inhibition.
BACKGROUND: Inhibitory control, a key modulatory component of cognition guiding strategy and behaviour, can be affected by diverse contingencies. We explore here the effect of expectation of reward over behavioural adjustment in...
