In marked contrast to the past few decades, where to be progressive was to be socialist and to be intellectual was to be left, we are entering a decade where socialism is in retreat and leftists are on the defensive.

Current literature supports the Libertarian viewpoint by focusing on the ability of Bitcoin to bypass central authority and provide anonymity; rarely is there an examination of blockchain technology’s capacity for decentralised...

Wiener Way to Dimensionality

This note introduces a new general conjecture correlating the dimensionality dT of an infinite lattice with N nodes to the asymptotic value of its Wiener Index W(N). In the limit of large N the general asymptotic behavior W(N)≈Ns is proposed, where the exponent s and dT are related by the conjectured formula s=2+1/dT allowing a new definition of dimensionality dW=(s-2)-1. Being related to the t...

W2: “Discogenic Pain and the Way to Treatment”

The exact differentiation of the back pain and its backgrounds made the base of much research. Various triggers also have different pathomechanism. This background is used after accurate detection in the treatment of back pain. Discogenic pain is a particular challenge in pathobiochemistry and therapy.
