Structure constrained by metadata in networks of chess players
(2017)
Chess is an emblematic sport that stands out because of its age, popularity and complexity. It has served to study human behavior from the perspective of a wide number of disciplines, from cognitive skills such as memory ...
Unified framework to determine Gaussian states in continuous-variable systems
(2017)
Gaussian states are the backbone of quantum information protocols with continuous-variable systems whose power relies fundamentally on the entanglement between the different modes. In the case of global pure states, knowledge ...
Problem of quantifying quantum correlations with non-commutative discord
(2017)
In this work we analyze a non-commutativity measure of quantum correlations recently proposed by Y. Guo [Sci. Rep. 6, 25241 (2016)]. By resorting to a systematic survey of a two-qubit system, we detected an undesirable ...
Very fast dissolving acid carboxymethylcellulose-rifampicin matrix : development and solid-state characterization
(2017)
One of the main obstacles to the successful treatment of tuberculosis is the poor and variable oral bioavailability of rifampicin (RIF), which is mainly due to its low hydrophilicity and dissolution rate. The aim of this ...
Effects of rainfall on Culex mosquito population dynamics
(2017)
The dynamics of a mosquito population depends heavily on climatic variables such as temperature and precipitation. Since climate change models predict that global warming will impact on the frequency and intensity of ...
Distinguishability notion based on Wootters statistical distance : application to discrete maps
(2017)
We study the distinguishability notion given by Wootters for states represented by probability density functions. This presents the particularity that it can also be used for defining a statistical distance in chaotic ...
Positivity results for indefinite sublinear elliptic problems via a continuity argument
(2017)
We establish a positivity property for a class of semilinear elliptic problems involving indefinite sublinear nonlinearities. Namely, we show that any nontrivial nonnegative solution is positive for a class of problems the ...
d-Dimensional KPZ equation as a stochastic gradient flow in an evolving landscape : interpretation and time evolution of its generating functional
(2017)
The deterministic KPZ equation has been recently formulated as a gradient flow. Its non-equilibrium analog of a free energy—the “non-equilibrium potential” Φ[h], providing at each time the landscape where the stochastic ...
Structural and magnetic properties of nanocrystalline Bi1-xLaxFeO3 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) synthesized by a mechanochemical route
(2017)
Bi1-xLaxFeO3 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) powders were prepared by means of a solid acid-base reaction induced by mechanochemical energy. Bi, La and Fe chlorides were high-energy ball-milled with NaOH, yielding a mixture of Bi1-xLaxFeO3 ...
