Weak gravity in the brane world scenario with a scalar field in the bulk between two end-of-the-world branes is investigated by using the doubly gauge invariant formalism. We review the result that Einstein gravity is restored in the low energy limit and that highenergy corrections to Einstein gravity can be mimicked by higher derivative terms. After that, it is argued that non-locality is one ...

The shape and scope of the welfare state in individual countries have been under consideration since late 1970s. However, publication Three Worlds Welfare Capitalism (1990), discussions framed by Esping-Andersen proposal, which has had an enormous impact on research regarding regimes. This article aims to determine how many worlds can be distinguished European context. empirical analysis is bas...

motifs and mythical thoughts through human history go into a variety of formats to survive and are reconstructed, recreated and reproduced in ideas and different worlds. one of these realms and worlds is a mystical world. motifs and common points of the world of myth and mysticism in foundations of knowledge,interpretability, sacred time and space, symbolic language stem the possibility of conv...

If there are fundamental laws of nature, can they fail to be exact? In this paper, I consider the possibility that some vague. call phenomenon nomic vagueness. characterize vagueness as existence borderline lawful worlds and presence several other accompanying features. Under certain assumptions, such prevents physical theory from being completely expressible in mathematical language. Moreover,...

Drawing upon a series of studies that examines the information world of poor people, the author discovers four critical concepts that serve as the basis for defining an impoverished life-world. These concepts are risk-taking, secrecy, deception, and situational relevance. Moving back and forth among the worlds of janitors, single mothers, and an aging population, the author develops a conceptua...

There are now many virtual worlds in existence, a number of which have built considerable user bases. However, there is little empirical evidence to suggest what factors underpin their continued usage and success. This study set about determining why users continue to use virtual worlds, using the example of the popular virtual world of Second Life. The study adopts continuance theory and exten...

In the isotropic quantum cosmological perfect fluid model, the initial singularity can be avoided, while the classical behaviour is recovered asymptotically. We verify if initial anisotropies can also be suppressed in a quantum version of a classical anisotropic model where gravity is coupled to a perfect fluid. Employing a Bianchi I cosmological model, we obtain a ”Schrödinger-like” equation w...

DNA flows between chromosomes and mobile elements, following rules that are poorly understood. This limited knowledge is partly explained by the limits of current approaches to study the structure and evolution of genetic diversity. Network analyses of 119,381 homologous DNA families, sampled from 111 cellular genomes and from 165,529 phage, plasmid, and environmental virome sequences, offer ch...
