Rigidity versus Flexibility of Tight Confoliations
In [9] Y. Eliashberg and W. Thurston gave a definition of tight confoliations. We give an example of a tight confoliation ξ on T 3 violating the Thurston-Bennequin inequalities. This answers a question from [9] negatively. Although the tightness of a confoliation does not imply the Thurston-Bennequin inequalities, it is still possible to prove restrictions on homotopy classes of plane fields wh...
متن کاملMeasurements versus understanding: the (metabol)omics dilemma
Amir Aharoni, Department of Life Sciences and the National Institute for Biotechnology in the Negev (NIBN), Ben-Gurion University, Beer-Sheva, Israel. The size of the microbial world is beyond our imagination. In last year’s crystal ball article, Tom Curtis compared the size of the microbial world to the size of the universe pointing out that the number of microorganisms in the world is billion...
متن کاملProtein flexibility and rigidity predicted from sequence.
Structural flexibility has been associated with various biological processes such as molecular recognition and catalytic activity. In silico studies of protein flexibility have attempted to characterize and predict flexible regions based on simple principles. B-values derived from experimental data are widely used to measure residue flexibility. Here, we present the most comprehensive large-sca...
متن کاملGeneralized flexibility-rigidity index.
Flexibility-rigidity index (FRI) has been developed as a robust, accurate, and efficient method for macromolecular thermal fluctuation analysis and B-factor prediction. The performance of FRI depends on its formulations of rigidity index and flexibility index. In this work, we introduce alternative rigidity and flexibility formulations. The structure of the classic Gaussian surface is utilized ...
