We show that the minimum weight of a weighted blow-up $\mathbf A^d$ with $\varepsilon$-log canonical singularities is bounded by constant depending only on $\varepsilon $ and $d$. This was conjectured Birkar. Using recent classification $4$-dimensional empty simplices Iglesias-Vali\~no Santos, we work out an explicit bound for blowups A^4$ terminal singularities: smallest always at most $32$, $...

As Canada's population ages, frailty - with its increased risk of functional decline, deterioration in health status, and death - will become increasingly common. The physiology of frailty reflects its multisystem, multi-organ origins. About a quarter of Canadians over age 65 are frail, increasing to over half in those older than 85. Our health care system is organized around single-organ syste...

Books and magazines often contain pages containing audacious mixtures of color images and text Our problem consists in coding the background colors of a such documents without wasting bits on background pixels that will be masked by foreground text This paper presents a numerical method for achieving such a result This wavelet technique described in this paper signi cantly reduces the compresse...

You are about to teach a course that will probably give students their second exposure to linear algebra. During their first brush with the subject, your students probably worked with Euclidean spaces and matrices. In contrast, this course will emphasize abstract vector spaces and linear maps. The audacious title of this book deserves an explanation. Almost all linear algebra books use determin...

Abstract This article probes the racially conflictual plotlines of mamulengo , a form improvised popular puppetry in North-East Brazil. Drawing on corpus transcribed shows performed between 1940s and 1970s, it how audacious Black protagonists – often named Baltazar or Benedito took part game racial ‘acrobatics’.
