Multiobjective (MO) optimization is an emerging field which is increasingly being encountered in many fields globally. Various metaheuristic techniques such as differential evolution (DE), genetic algorithm (GA), gravitational search algorithm (GSA), and particle swarm optimization (PSO) have been used in conjunction with scalarization techniques such as weighted sum approach and the normal-bou...

BACKGROUND Lichen planus is recognized as an inflammatory disease of the skin with different morphologic patterns. Different treatment modalities, including topical and systemic corticosteroids, methotrexate, cyclosporine, azathioprine, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and psoralen plus UVA (PUVA), have been suggested for lichen planus. Although the efficacy of narrowband UVB (NBUVB) for treatme...

We show that constraints on the generating functional have direct BRST-extensions in terms of nilpotent operators ∆ that annihilate this generating functional, and which may be of arbitrarily high order. The free energy F in the presence of external sources thus satisfies a “Master Equation” which is described in terms of a tower of higher antibrackets. UUITP-23/96 NBI-HE-96-52 hep-th/9610083

To gain insight into the non-abelian Born-Infeld (NBI) action, we study coinciding D-branes wrapped on tori, and turn on magnetic fields on their worldvolume. We then compare predictions for the spectrum of open strings stretching between these D-branes, from perturbative string theory and from the effective NBI action. Under some plausible assumptions, we find corrections to the Str-prescripti...

We present the detection of a filament of Lyα emitting galaxies in front of the quasar Q1205-30 at z=3.04 based on deep narrow band imaging and follow-up spectroscopy obtained at the ESO NTT and VLT. We argue that Lyα selection of high redshift galaxies with relatively modest amounts of observing time allows the detection and redshift measurement of galaxies with sufficiently high space densiti...

We find a manifestly N=3 supersymmetric generalization of the four-dimensional Euler-Heisenberg (four-derivative, or F ) part of the Born-Infeld action in light-cone gauge, by using N=3 light-cone superspace. Also at NBI, Univ. of Copenhagen, Denmark, and HCEI, Academy of Sciences, Tomsk, Russia
