Two parts of an entangled quantum state can have a correlation, in their joint behavior under measurements, that is unexplainable by shared classical information. Such correlations are called nonlocal and have proven to be an interesting resource for information processing. Since nonlocal correlations are more useful if they are stronger, it is natural to ask whether weak nonlocality can be amp...

The Fellegi-Holt method automatically “corrects” data that fail some predefined requirements. Computer implementations of the method were used in many national statistics agencies but are less used now because they are slow. We recast the method in propositional logic, and show that many of its results are well-known results in propositional logic. In particular we show that the Fellegi-Holt me...

We investigate the effect of constant and periodic harvesting on the Beverton-Holt model in a periodically fluctuating environment. We show that in a periodically fluctuating environment, periodic harvesting gives a better maximum sustainable yield compared to constant harvesting. However, if one can also fix the environment, then constant harvesting in a constant environment can be a better op...

We investigate the steerability of two-qubit Bell-diagonal states under projective measurements by the steering party. In the simplest nontrivial scenario of two projective measurements, we solve this problem completely by virtue of the connection between the steering problem and the joint-measurement problem. A necessary and sufficient criterion is derived together with a simple geometrical in...

Pairs of spin1 2 particles are prepared in a Werner state (namely, a mixture of singlet and random components). If the random component is large enough, the statistical results of spin measurements that may be performed on each pair separately can be reproduced by an algorithm involving local “hidden” variables. However, if several such pairs are tested simultaneously, a violation of the Clause...

A generalized Beverton-Holt model is considered in which a parameter gamma characterizes the onset of density dependence. An evolutionary stable strategy analysis of this parameter, reported in Getz (1996), is developed further here, using invasion exponents and the strategy dynamics of Vincent et al. (1993). The parameter gamma is also allowed to be density dependent, and it is shown that the ...

Abstract—The aim of this paper is to select the most accurate forecasting method for predicting the future values of the unemployment rate in selected European countries. In order to do so, several forecasting techniques adequate for forecasting time series with trend component, were selected, namely: double exponential smoothing (also known as Holt`s method) and Holt-Winters` method which acco...

holt-oram syndrome (hos) is a developmental disorder inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern. affected organs are the heart and forelimbs with upper extremity skeletal defects and congenital heart malformation. in this study we present three cases of hos in the same family. in one of these three individuals we detected a transition of c to t (ctg-gtt, v205v) in exon 7 of the tbx5 gene. this ...
