most extensively analysed fungal sequences. As there are now barcode sequences covering all kingdoms of multicellular life, and taxonomists in museums are working hard to keep the molecular information connected to the traditional repositories and species definitions, barcodes offer the opportunity to expand species identification to situations where skilled taxonomists may not be at hand. “As ...

Metamorphoses Through Lie Group Action

We formally analyze a computational problem which has important applications in image understanding and shape analysis. The problem can be summarized as follows. Starting from a group action on a Riemannian manifold M , we introduce a modification of the metric by partly expressing displacements on M as an effect of the action of some group element. The study of this new structure relates to ev...

Patterns of Rape in Ovid's Metamorphoses

The myths themselves are by no means originals of the poet; however, his treatment of these stories is remarkably divergent from his predecessors' in that he provides a uniquely female perspective by outlining both the victim's suffering and the barbaric nature of the perpetrator.
