Multi-host infectious agents challenge our abilities to understand, predict and manage disease dynamics. Within this, many infectious agents are also able to use, simultaneously or sequentially, multiple modes of transmission. Furthermore, the relative importance of different host species and modes can itself be dynamic, with potential for switches and shifts in host range and/or transmission m...

Several designs for linear colliders for e+e-collisions in the TeV range are currently under discussion. Most of them will use multi bunch operation. Therefore the study of higher order modes excited by previous bunches in the train becomes even more important for the optimal design of the accelerator components. Many of the designs use long tapered disc-loaded waveguides for acceleration. Nume...

Higher-order low-rank tensor arises in many data processing applications and has attracted great interests. Inspired by approximation theory, researchers have proposed a series of effective completion methods. However, most these methods directly consider the global low-rankness underlying tensors, which is not sufficient for low sampling rate; addition, single nuclear norm or its relaxation us...
