We classify the hulls of different limit-periodic potentials and show that the hull of a limit-periodic potential is a procyclic group. We describe how limit-periodic potentials can be generated from a procyclic group and answer arising questions. As an expository paper, we discuss the connection between limit-periodic potentials and profinite groups as completely as possible and review some re...

We review the basic characteristics of four periodic hematological disorders (periodic auto-immune hemolytic anemia, cyclical thrombocytopenia, cyclical neutropenia and periodic chronic myelogenous leukemia) and examine the role that mathematical modeling and numerical simulations have played in our understanding of the origin of these diseases and in the regulation of hematopoiesis.

In this paper we consider a periodic review, reorder point, order-up-to-level system, a type commonly used in practice. Motivated by a specific practical context, we present a novel approach to determining the reorder point and order-up-to-level (for a given review interval) so as to target desired values of i) customer fill rate and ii) average time between consecutive replenishments. Specific...

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis is a rare complication of hyperthyroidism, characterized by severe hypokalemia and episodes of skeletal muscle paralysis. Although it is commonly described in adult East Asian men, TPP has been reported in individuals of all ages and ethnic backgrounds. We describe the case of a young adult Hispanic male who presented to a Pediatric Emergency Department with paraly...

Sustainability has become a major issue in most economies, causing many leading companies to focus on product recovery and reverse logistics. This research is focused on product recovery, and in particular on production control and inventory management in the remanufacturing context. We study a remanufacturing facility that receives a stream of returned products according to a Poisson process. ...

Multiple searches were carried out in the PubMed database to identify articles with better methodological design, followed by critical evaluation of their contents and classification according to the strength of evidence. According to the recommendations of the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine, literature systematic reviews and randomized clinical trials were preferred. Searches were c...
