Classification of fixed points of Potts-Bethe mapping of degree four on Q5 by Ahmad, Mohd. Ali Khameini, Murat Alp, Murat Alp, Mohd. Azahari, Mohammad Azim, Embong, Ahmad Fadillah

“…In this paper, the Potts–Bethe mapping of degree four is con-sidered over the field Q5 of 5-adic numbers. In some regimes (a condition appear in the study of p-adic Potts model), the fixed points are found and their stability are determined. …”

1-in-3 vs. not-all-equal: dichotomy of a broken promise by Ciardo, L, Kozik, M, Krokhin, A, Nakajima, T-V, Živný, S

“…In the present work, we investigate this constraint satisfaction problem in a regime where the promise is weakened from either side by a rainbow-free structure, and establish a complexity dichotomy for the resulting class of computational problems.…”

Effects of resonant tunneling on intrinsic linewidth of quantum cascade lasers by Liu, T., Wang, Q. J.

“…The quantum Langevin analysis for QCLs show that coupling strength and dephasing rate strongly affect the linewidth of THz QCLs in incoherent resonant-tunneling transport regime, but induce insignificant influence for mid-infrared QCLs due to strong coupling.…”

Flow and deformation due to periodic loading in a soft porous material by Fiori, M, Pramanik, S, Macminn, CW

“…We identify two distinct mechanical regimes, distinguished by whether the loading period is slow or fast relative to the characteristic poroelastic timescale. …”

Entangled exclusions: borders, frontiers and urban geopolitics from northeast India by Das, P, Mittal, G, Sarma, J

“…An epicentre of ethnicity-based identity politics and exclusions, India's northeastern region has long been politically imagined as both a ‘frontier’ and ‘borderland’ for state control, territorialization, extractive economies and (re)developments by colonial and subsequent post-colonial regimes. In post-independence India, the region experienced many territorial assertions made on ethnic grounds. …”

Repurposing nitroxoline to address antibiotic resistance in the production of poultry for consumption by Zhou, Y

“…<em>In-vivo</em> evaluation (Chapter 5) established an optimal dosage regimen (100 mg/kg of NTX in feed) for treating <em>Salmonella</em> infections in poultry without promoting the development of resistance. …”

Cytisine versus varenicline for smoking cessation in a primary care setting: a randomized non-inferiority trial by Oreskovic, T, Percac-Lima, S, Ashburner, JM, Tiljak, H, Rifel, J, Klemenc Ketiš, Z, Oreskovic, S

“…Given the much lower cost of cytisine treatment, its lower rate of adverse events, and higher feasibility (but its likely lower effectiveness with the standard dosage regimen), future analyses should assess the cost-effectiveness of the two treatments for health policy considerations.…”

Hepatic effects of prolonged oral administration of Aqueous extracts from Trigonella foenum-graecum (Fenugreek) seeds explored through pathology techniques by Okorie, Nnaemeka, Ibe, Onyekachi Ewa, Okekpa, Simon Imakwu, Nwakpa, Anthony Chukwudi, Agom, Dansy Daniel, Pauline, Iyke-Ogbo, Adaeze, Obi Laura, Mmesomachi, Uche Bethel, Nyirahafashimana, Valentine, Obi, Ihuoma A.

“…Materials and methods: Thirty-five Norvegicus rattus weighing 150-200g were randomly assigned to five groups, with each subjected to distinct dietary regimens containing 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% Trigonella foenum-graecum, and a control group. …”

Natural resources and income inequality in Africa. by Charasz, Pawel.

“…However, the overall effect is dependent upon the political regime and level of population heterogeneity. Whereas natural resources themselves were on average contributing positively to income inequality, greater degree of democracy reduces this effect and greater level of population heterogeneity increases this effect.…”
