The nature of blood as a suspension of red blood cells makes computational haemodynamics a demanding task. Our coarse-grained blood model, which builds on a lattice Boltzmann method for soft particle suspensions, enables the study of the collective behaviour of the order of 10(6) cells in… |

Background
Imprinting Control Regions (ICRs) are CpG-rich sequences acquiring differential methylation in the female and male germline and maintaining it in a parental origin-specific manner in somatic cells. Despite their expected high mutation rate due to spontaneous deamination of methylated… |

We give a general inequality for the total variation distance between a Poisson distributed random variable and a first order stochastic integral with respect to a point process with stochastic intensity, constructed by embedding in a bivariate Poisson process. We apply this general inequality to… |

Background: High-throughput technologies enable the cost-effective collection and analysis of DNA methylation data throughout the human genome. This naturally entails missing values management that can complicate the analysis of the data. Several general and specific imputation methods are suitable… |

By applying Helmholtz decomposition, the unknowns of a linearized Euler system can be recast as solutions of uncoupled linearwave equations. Accordingly, the Kirchhoff expression of the exact solutions is recast as a time-marching, Lax-Wendroff type, numerical scheme for which consistency with one-… |

This paper introduces a new model of pedestrian flow, formulated within a measure-theoretic framework. It consists of a macroscopic representation of the system via a family of measures which, pushed forward by some flow maps, provide an estimate of the space occupancy by pedestrians at successive… |

The representation of real systems with network models is becoming increasingly common and critical to both capture and simplify systems' complexity, notably, via the partitioning of networks into communities. In this respect, the definition of modularity, a common and broadly used quality measure… |

Test particle geodesic motion is analysed in detail for the background spacetimes of the degenerate FerrariIbañez colliding gravitational wave solutions. Killing vectors have been used to reduce the equations of motion to a first-order system of differential equations which have been integrated… |
