Allesina S (1) measured the fullmagnitude of nepotism in the ...

Spontaneous syr ~ lnietry breaking , gauge theories , the Higgs rnechanisrri and all that

A more or less self-contained introductory review is presented of the so-called Higgs phenomenon. This is the mechanism by which, in a certain class of gauge theories, the "photon" and would-be Goldstone scalar mesons conspire together to produce massive vector mesons via a "sporitaneous" breaking of gauge invariance. It is conceivable that this is the way in which nature has chosen to unify we...

2178 and All That

For integers g ≥ 3, k ≥ 2, call a number N a (g, k)-reverse multiple if the reversal of N in base g is equal to k times N . The numbers 1089 and 2178 are the two smallest (10, k)reverse multiples, their reversals being 9801 = 9 · 1089 and 8712 = 4 · 2178. In 1992, A. L. Young introduced certain trees in order to study the problem of finding all (g, k)-reverse multiples. By using modified versio...
