Mathematical toy model inspired by the problem of the adaptive origins of the sexual orientation continuum
Published 2017“…This trade-off is explored via a simple mathematical ‘toy model’. The model exhibits a number of interesting features and suggests a simple mathematical form for describing the sexual orientation continuum.…”

Sins of omission: Children selectively explore when teachers are under-informative
Published 2018“…Experiment 1 shows that given identical demonstrations of a toy, children (6- and 7-year-olds) rate an informant lower if the toy also had non-demonstrated functions. …”

Ideas About Management of LISP Data Bases
Published 2004“…Two reasons for such systems are seen: (1) As A.I. programs develop from toy domains using toy data bases, to more realistic exercises, the management of the knowledge base becomes non-trivial and requires program support. (2) A powerful way to organize LISP programs is to make them data-driven, whereby pieces of program are distributed throughout a data base. …”

Semi-annihilation of dark matter
Published 2011“…We give a complete set of coupled Boltzmann equations in the presence of semi-annihilations, and study two toy models featuring this process. Semi-annihilation leads to non-trivial dark matter dynamics in the early universe, often dominating over ordinary annihilation in determining the relic abundance. …”

Solitonic ground states in (color) superconductivity
Published 2010“…As a first application, we calculate real gap functions with general one-dimensional periodic structures for a 3+1-dimensional toy model having two fermion species. The resulting solutions are energetically favored against homogeneous superconducting (BCS) and normal conducting phases in a window for the chemical potential difference δμ which is about twice as wide as that for the most simple plane-wave ansatz (“Fulde-Ferrell phase”). …”
