The Special Issue “Form and Function of Disorder” has been assembled to honor David A. Drabold on the occasion his 60th birthday (see Guest Editorial, article number 2100366). issue includes an array topics disordered materials encompassing applications classical, quantum-mechanical, machine-learning approaches glasses, as well a generic understanding systems from geometric topological points v...

This essay focuses on the work of British contemporary artist Sutapa Biswas (born 1962). Over past forty years, has engaged, through film, photography and other media, with complex structures aesthetics global, in relation to her own migratory experience. Having come Britain from West Bengal as a child, artist's return 1980s place birth precipitated series works that deal complexity homeland id...

In this article, a new version of the generalized F-expansion method is proposed enabling to obtain exact solutions Biswas-Arshed equation and Boussinesq defined by Atangana’s beta-derivative. First, introduced, then, nonlinear fractional differential equations expressed with beta-derivative are given. When results examined, it seen that single, combined, mixed Jacobi elliptic function obtained...

This paper is an effort to continue the legacy of classically successful theory Toeplitz operators on Hardy space over unit disk a new domain in $${\mathbb {C}}^d$$ —the symmetrized polydisk. We obtain algebraic characterizations operators, analytic compact perturbation and dual operators. then revisit operator this considered first Biswas Shyam Roy (J Funct Anal 266:6224–6255, 2014), study gen...

In his previous paper, the author proposed as a problem purely inseparable analogue of Abhyankar conjecture for affine curves in positive characteristic and gave partial answer to it, which includes complete finite local nilpotent group schemes. present motivated by conjectures with restricted ramifications due Harbater Pop, we study refined version analogous problem, based on recent work tamel...

This text tries to clarify what a mesh network is and which differences and advantages it introduces compared to other kinds of wireless community networks. It is a summary of the publication “Architecture and evaluation of an unplanned 802.11b mesh network”, written by John Bicket, Daniel Aguayo, Sanjit Biswas and Robert Morris, from Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of M...

patients warranted additional i.v. anaesthetic prior to application of the electrical stimulus. Fortunately, neither of the patients reported awareness of the procedural events. Consequently, we no longer use bispectral index monitoring alone to assess pre-ictal anaesthetic depth in patients receiving ECT. Moreover, Zand and colleagues recently reported that the BISwas not a reliable monitorof ...

Watershed management is a “process of formulation and carrying out of a course of action involving modification of the natural system of watersheds to achieve specified objectives” (Biswas, 2002). Much of watershed management has largely to do with risk assessment and minimizing adverse effects on human populations. To accomplish their specified objectives, professionals in the field of watersh...

Biswas et al. [1] introduced a probabilistic approach to inference with limited information in sensor networks. They represented the sensor network as a Bayesian network and performed approximate inference using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The goal is to robustly answer queries even under noisy or partial information scenarios. We propose an alternative method based on simple Monte Carlo e...
