Higher Lawrence configurations

Any configuration of lattice vectors gives rise to a hierarchy of higher-dimensional configurations which generalize the Lawrence construction in geometric combinatorics. We prove finiteness results for the Markov bases, Graver bases and facet posets of these configurations, and we discuss applications to the statistical theory of log-linear models.

His contributions were both scientific and personal, providing as much to the development of people as to scientific discovery.

The report for the year 1871-72, which h...

Environmental endocrine Lawrence

Environmental endocrine disruptors (EEDS) are those endocrine modifying chemicals that are also environmental pollutants. A brief description of known and suspected effects of these chemicals is presented along with a table of chemicals that are of interest for further study by three organisations. The future challenge to environmental chemists will be to develop sensitive, selective, and accur...
