Industrial land use and heavy metal contaminated wastewater used for irrigation in periurban Zambia
Studies on urban and periurban agriculture in Zambia have not adequately tackled land use practices in relation to problems associated with wastewater irrigated farming. This study investigated land use practices in two wastewater irrigated farming areas in the industrial towns of Mufulira and Kafue respectively in the...

Linking numbers in local quantum field theory
Linking numbers appear in local quantum field theory in the presence of tensor fields, which are closed two-forms on Minkowski space. Given any pair of such fields, it is shown that the commutator of the corresponding intrinsic (gauge-invariant) vector potentials, integrated about spacelike separated, spatial loops, ar...

Improved Algorithms For Min Cut And Max Flow In Undirected Planar Graphs
We study the min st-cut and max st-flow problems in planar graphs, both in static and in dynamic settings. First, we present an algorithm that given an undirected planar graph and two vertices s and t computes a min st-cut in O(n log log n) time. Second, we show how to achieve the same bound for the problem of computin...

In a free society, there is persistent tension between utility and privacy. Citizens have the basic right to keep their personal information private. However, sometimes keeping our data private could significantly reduce our ability to use this data to benefit ourselves or society. This tension is multiplied many times...

Precise Predictive Analysis For Discovering Communication Deadlocks In Mpi Programs
The Message Passing Interface MPI is the standard API for high-performance and scientific computing. Communication deadlocks are a frequent problem in MPI programs, and this paper addresses the problem of discovering such deadlocks. We begin by showing that if an MPI program is single-path, the problem of discovering c...

Three-dimensional reconstruction of postovulatory follicles from histological sections
The postovulatory follicle (POF) resorption process is classified in daily phases by examination of their 2-D histomorphological structure and characteristics to indicate the elapsed time since spawning. These characteristics were used to investigate the associated reduction in volume by three-dimensional (3-D) reconst...

Koszul duality for Kac–Moody groups and characters of tilting modules
We establish a character formula for indecomposable tilting modules for connected reductive groups in characteristic ℓ \ell in terms of ℓ \ell -Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials, for ℓ > h \ell > h the Coxeter number. Using results of Andersen, one may deduce a character formula for simple modules if ℓ...

Isocyanide Insertion Into Au H Bonds First Gold Iminoformyl Complexes
Isocyanides insert into gold(iii)-hydrogen bonds to give the first examples of gold iminoformyl complexes. The reaction is initiated by catalytic amounts of radicals; DFT calculations indicate that this is an equilibrium reaction driven forward by isocyanide in sufficient excess to trap the Au(ii) intermediate.

Rational Engineering of Synthetic Systems for Propagation of Information via Catalytic Assembly of Copies
Copying of information-bearing polymer templates is vital to life. The central dogma of molecular biology describes how a sequence of nucleotides in DNA is copied into a sequence of nucleotides in a newly-assembled RNA polymer, and then into a sequence of amino acids in a protein. These processes involve sophisticated ...

Frozen density embedding calculations with the orbital-dependent localized Hartree-Fock Kohn-Sham potential
We extend the Kohn-Sham equations with constrained density (KSCED) to the use of orbital dependent functionals, namely the localized Hartree-Fock (LHF) functional, which is free from the Coulomb self-interaction error. We show that the LHF-KSCED approach yields an accurate description of the embedded density of weakly-...

An objective rationale for the choice of regularisation parameter with application to global multiple-frequency &lt;i&gt;S&lt;/i&gt;-wave tomography
Abstract. In a linear ill-posed inverse problem, the regularisation parameter (damping) controls the balance between minimising both the residual data misfit and the model norm. Poor knowledge of data uncertainties often makes the selection of damping rather arbitrary. To go beyond that subjectivity, an objective ratio...

Design of Self-Healing Supramolecular Rubbers by Introducing Ionic Cross-Links into Natural Rubber via a Controlled Vulcanization
Introducing ionic associations is one of the most effective approaches to realize a self-healing behavior for rubbers. However, most of commercial rubbers are nonpolar rubbers without now available functional groups to be converted into ionic groups. In this paper, our strategy was based on a controlled peroxide-induce...
