Analytic determination of the eight-and-a-half post-Newtonian self-force contributions to the two-body gravitational interaction potential

We analytically compute, to the eight-and-a-half post-Newtonian order, and to linear order in the mass ratio, the radial potential describing (within the effective one-body formalism) the gravitational interaction of two bodies, thereby extending previous analytic results. These results are…

The unstructured lattice Boltzmann method for non-Newtonian flows

Natural vs. random protein sequences: Discovering combinatorics properties on amino acid words

Casual mutations and natural selection have driven the evolution of protein amino acid sequences that we observe at present in nature. The question about which is the dominant force of proteins evolution is still lacking of an unambiguous answer. Casual mutations tend to randomize protein sequences…

A NOTE ON THE LATTICE BOLTZMANN VERSUS FINITE-DIFFERENCE METHODS FOR THE NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF THE FISHER'S EQUATION

We assess the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method versus centered finite-difference schemes for the solution of the advection-diffusion-reaction (ADR) Fisher's equation. It is found that the LB method performs significantly better than centered finite-difference schemes, a property we attribute to the…

ALMOST SURE CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREMS IN STOCHASTIC GEOMETRY

We prove an almost sure central limit theorem on the Poisson space, which is perfectly tailored for stabilizing functionals arising in stochastic geometry. As a consequence, we provide almost sure central limit theorems for (i) the total edge length of the k-nearest neighbors random graph. (ii) the…

A stochastic model for loan interest rates

Abstract. The topic of interest rate restrictions and their legal implications represents a delicate subject about which a recent inventory of EU authorities was developed. This is aimed to inspection of the so called principle of "good morals" against usury for the Member States. The most recent…

Boundedness of solutions to anisotropic variational problems

Boundedness results of minimizers of fully anisotropic variational problems and of weak solutions to fully anisotropic quasilinear elliptic equations are established.

StructuRly: A novel shiny app to produce comprehensive, detailed and interactive plots for population genetic analysis

Population genetics focuses on the analysis of genetic differences within and between-group of individuals and the inference of the populations' structure. These analyses are usually carried out using Bayesian clustering or maximum likelihood estimation algorithms that assign individuals to a given…

Modeling Dry-Port-Based Freight Distribution Planning

In this paper we review the dry port concept and its outfalls in terms of optimal design and management of freight distribution. Some optimization challenges arising from the presence of dry ports in intermodal freight transport systems are presented and discussed. Then we consider the tactical…
