Galilean Electromagnetism was discovered thirty years ago by Levy-Leblond & Le Bellac. However, these authors only explored the consequences for the fields and not for the potentials. Following De Montigny & al., we show that the Coulomb gauge condition is the magnetic limit of the Lorenz gauge condition whereas the Lorenz gauge condition applies in the electric limit of Lévy-Leblond & Le Bella...

Levy et al. (2002) describe portions of their analysis of the public health impacts of emissions from nine power plants in Illinois. This and similar analyses (Levy and Spengler, 2002; Freeman, 2001; Abt, 2000) use dataintensive models of air quality and health risks to estimate the number of deaths caused by increases in ambient particulate matter (PM) concentrations due to emissions from spec...

Abstract This paper is a first attempt to provide quantitative evaluation of consumer well-being resulting from the UK Soft Drinks Industry Levy introduced in April 2018. Using model setup that encompasses both normal case and Giffen for sugary drinks consumption, computational exercise performed quantify welfare social loss variety household incomes. The demonstrates introduction soft levy res...

We report that human walk patterns closely follow Levy walk patterns commonly observed in animals such as monkeys, birds and jackals. Our study is based on about one thousand hours of GPS traces involving 44 volunteers in various outdoor settings including two different college campuses, a metropolitan area, a theme park and a state fair. Important implications of this finding include that many...

What are the costs of litigation? David M. Trubek the author of The Costs of Ordinary Litigation breaks down litigation into "events" to answer this question. Through a study that randomly sampled civil cases from federal district and state courts, data has been complied and broken down into categories or stated differently into "events of litigation." [1] The study's data focuses on an attorne...

We present a new third-order essentially non-oscillatory central scheme for approximating solutions of twodimensional hyperbolic conservation laws. Our scheme is based on a two-dimensional extension of the centered weighted essentially non-oscillatory (CWENO) reconstruction we presented in Levy et al. [3]. This is a “true” 2D method; it is not based on a direction-by-direction approach. Our met...

Abstract. We present a method to apply the Malliavin calculus to calculate sensitivities for exponential Levy models built from the Variance Gamma and Normal Inverse Gaussian processes. We also present new sensitivities for these processes. The calculation of the sensitivities is based on a finite dimensional Malliavin calculus and we compare the results with finite difference calculations. Thi...

Hyperkeratosis of the nipple and areola (HNA) is an unusual dermatosis that Levy-Franckel classified into three variants (1). This rare condition occurs primarily in young women and represents a cosmetic problem. Furthermore, its management is a therapeutic challenge. We report on the rare case of a 32-year-old woman with idiopathic bilateral HNA, which belongs to the third Levy-Franckel classi...

We describe an improvement in the Levy and Procknal method [J. Pharm. Sci. 57, 1330 (1968)] for determination of salicylic acid and its metabolites in urine. Salicylic acid and salicyluric acid are successively extracted from 1 or 2 ml of urine (acidified with HCl) by two 10-ml portions each of carbon tetrachloride and ethylene dichloride. The extracts of each solvent are shaken with 5 ml of fe...
