On Gunning ’ s Prime Form in Genus 2

Using a classical generalization of Jacobi’s derivative formula, we give an explicit expression for Gunning’s prime form in genus 2 in terms of theta functions and their derivatives. Let X be a compact Riemann surface of genus g > 0. Let X̃ denote the universal cover of X, Π : X̃ → X denote the projection, and Γ be the group of covering transformations of X̃ over X. By a prime form for X wemean a ...

Feral Swine Behavior Relative to Aerial Gunning in Southern Texas

Feral swine (Sus scrofa) impact resources through their destructive feeding behavior, competition with native wildlife, and impacts to domestic animal agriculture. We studied aerial gunning on feral swine to determine if aerial gunning altered home range and core area sizes, distances between home range centroids, and distances moved by surviving individuals. We collected data before, during, a...
