Abstract We study monotone and strictly Hurwitz numbers from a bosonic Fock space perspective. This yields to an interpretation in terms of tropical geometry involving local multiplicities given by Gromov-Witten invariants. Furthermore, this enables us prove that main result Cavalieri-Johnson-Markwig-Ranganathan is actually equivalent the Gromov-Witten/Hurwitz correspondence Okounkov-Pandharipa...

In this paper, which is a sequel to [12], we proceed with our study of covers and decomposition laws for geometries related generalized quadrangles. particular, obtain higher law all Kantor-Knuth quadrangles generalizes one the main results in [12]. second part set ovoids (with given parameter) fixed finite parabolic quadrangle, relate embeddings into This point view gives rise an answer questi...

UNLABELLED Theme: Child protection and managing risk. BACKGROUND Skin-to-skin contact in the first hour of life has benefits for the mother and the newborn, as well as a major role in establishing breastfeeding. OBJECTIVES Determine the prevalence of skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding within the first hour of life. METHOD A systematic review of literature followed by a quantitative an...
