Aim . Assessment of the clinical impact previous hepatitis B infection (PHB). Key points PHB is characterized by presence viral DNA in organism (including intrahepatic cccDNA and integrated DNA). Possible virus persistence patient's hepatocytes potentiates agent transmission risk via haemotransfusion, organ transplantation haemodialysis. Occult HBV individuals can reactivate at background immun...

The 3-D Z(3) Potts model is a model for finite temperature QCD with heavy quarks. The chemical potential in QCD becomes an external magnetic field in the Potts model. Following Alford et al.[3], we revisit this mapping, and determine the phase diagram for an arbitrary chemical potential, real or imaginary. Analytic continuation of the phase transition line between real and imaginary chemical po...

Abstract. Given arbitrary integers k and d with 0 ≤ 2k ≤ d, we construct a Gorenstein Fano polytope P ⊂ R of dimension d such that (i) its Ehrhart polynomial i(P , n) possesses d distinct roots; (ii) i(P , n) possesses exactly 2k imaginary roots; (iii) i(P , n) possesses exactly d − 2k real roots; (iv) the real part of each of the imaginary roots is equal to −1/2; (v) all of the real roots belo...

The current generation of noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers introduces new opportunities to study many-body systems. In this paper, we show that circuits can provide a dramatically more efficient representation than classical numerics the states generated under nonequilibrium dynamics. For circuits, perform both real- and imaginary-time evolution using an optimization algorithm is feas...

Students of elementary complex analysis usually begin by seeing the derivation of the Cauchy–Riemann equations. A topic of interest to both the development of the theory and its applications is the reconstruction of a holomorphic function from its real part, or the extraction of the imaginary part from the real part, or vice versa. Usually this takes place by solving the partial differential sy...
