Eigenvalue Comparison on Bakry-emery Manifolds

It is called shrinking, steady, or expanding soliton if a > 0, a = 0 or a < 0 respectively. More generally (M, g, f) is called a Bakry-Emery manifold if the so-called Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor Rcij + fij ≥ agij for some a ∈ R. In this paper we apply the modulus of continuity estimates developed in [AC,AC2,AC3] to give a different proof of an eigenvalue comparison estimate on Bakry-Emery manifold...

Finding Relations between Botnet C&cs for Forensic Purposes

Botnets, large international networks of infected computers (so-called bots), play a central part in the digital underground economy, providing the infrastructure required for a multitude of malicious activities. To ensure a botnet keeps running, the botnet owner utilizes specialized technologies to send control messages to his bots, while keeping resilience against take down and stealth agains...

Tunable Fabry-Pérot interferometer based on nanoporous anodic alumina for optical biosensing purposes

Here, we present a systematic study about the effect of the pore length and its diameter on the specular reflection in nanoporous anodic alumina. As we demonstrate, the specular reflection can be controlled at will by structural tuning (i.e., by designing the pore geometry). This makes it possible to produce a wide range of Fabry-Pérot interferometers based on nanoporous anodic alumina, which a...

[Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy].

Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is an inherited muscular disorder characterized by the triad of progressive weakness in humero-peroneal muscles, early onset contractures and cardiomyopathy with conduction block that shows a high risk of sudden death. In 1994, the gene responsible for X-linked EDMD has been identified to Xq28 (designated as STA), that encodes a serine-rich protein of 25...
