EXERCISES IN THE BIRATIONAL GEOMETRY OF ALGEBRAIC VARIETIES
, 2008
"... The book [KM98] gave an introduction to the birational geometry of algebraic varieties, as the subject stood in 1998. The developments of the last decade made the more advanced parts of Chapters 6 and 7 less important and the detailed treatment of surface singularities in Chapter 4 less necessary. H ..."

. Although singular, this is the “best ” model to work with. There are lots of these but they appear less frequently outside algebraic geometry. There are also two types of “mongrels”: (Ruled): Birational to P 1 × (curve of genus ≥ 1). (Elliptic): These fiber over a curve with general fiber an elliptic curve
Fiber grating sensors
- Journal of Lightwave Technology
, 1997
"... Abstract—We review the recent developments in the area of optical fiber grating sensors, including quasi-distributed strain sensing using Bragg gratings, systems based on chirped gratings, intragrating sensing concepts, long period-based grating sensors, fiber grating laser-based systems, and interf ..."

Dichroic Behavior of the Absorbance Signals from Dyes NK2367 and WW3 7 5 in Skeletal Muscle Fibers
"... ABSTRACT Absorbance signals were recorded from voltage-clamped single muscle fibers stained with the nonpenetrating potentiometric dyes NK2367 and WW375 and illuminated with quasimonochromatic light from 560 to 800 nm, linearly polarized either parallel (0') or perpendicular (90') to the f ..."

;) to the fiber long axis. The signals from both dyes depend strongly on the incident polarization. At any wavelength and/or polarization condition, the total absorbance signal is a superposition ofthe same two signal components previously identified
Linking longterm dietary patterns with gut microbial enterotypes. Science 334
, 2011
"... Diet strongly affects human health, partly by modulating gut microbiome composition. We used diet inventories and 16S rDNA sequencing to characterize fecal samples from 98 individuals. Fecal communities clustered into enterotypes distinguished primarily by levels of Bacteroides and Prevotella. Enter ..."

. Enterotypes were strongly associated with long-term diets, particularly protein and animal fat (Bacteroides) versus carbohydrates (Prevotella). A controlled-feeding study of 10 subjects showed that microbiome composition changed detectably within 24 hours of initiating a high-fat/low-fiber or low-fat/high-fiber
Hyperbolic structures on 3–manifolds II: Surface groups and 3–manifolds which fiber over the circle
, 1998
"... The main result (0.1) of this paper is that every atoroidal three-manifold that fibers over the circle has a hyperbolic structure. Consequently, every fibered three-manifold admits a geometric decomposition. The main tool for constructing hyperbolic structures on fibered three-manifolds is the dou ..."

Nonlinear dynamics and breakup of free surface flows
- Rev. Mod. Phys
, 1997
"... Surface-tension-driven flows and, in particular, their tendency to decay spontaneously into drops have long fascinated naturalists, the earliest systematic experiments dating back to the beginning of the 19th century. Linear stability theory governs the onset of breakup and was developed by Rayleigh ..."

Light scattering from human hair fibers
- ACM Transactions on Graphics
, 2003
"... Light scattering from hair is normally simulated in computer graphics using Kajiya and Kay’s classic phenomenological model. We have made new measurements of scattering from individual hair fibers that exhibit visually significant effects not predicted by Kajiya and Kay’s model. Our measurements go ..."

Finding the Medial Axis of a Simple Polygon in Linear Time
- DISCRETE COMPUT. GEOM
, 1995
"... We give a linear-time algorithm for computing the medial axis of a simple polygon P, This answers a long-standing open question -- previously, the best deterministic algorithm ran in O(n log n) time. We decompose P into pseudo-normal histograms, then influence histograms and xy monotone histograms. ..."

-FFT is shown in Fig.2. The central point corresponds to the brightness of the original TEM image. Its characteristic pattern is distributed in a line per-pendicular to the 00l lattice planes of the TEM image. The intensity of the power spectrum is represented by graphs obtained by integration along the x-axis
Synaptic physiology of horizontal connections in the cat’s visual cortex
