seasonal activity and spatial distribution of eoteranychus frosti mcgregor, tydeus longisetosus (elbagouy and momen) and zetzellia mali ewing were studied during 9th july to 22th october 2006 in an unsprayed apple orchard, maragheh region, northwest of iran. also the density dependence interaction between preys and predator was assessed. to estimate the spatial distribution pattern of these spe...

We examine the fundamental properties that determine the basic performance metrics for opportunistic communications. We first consider the distribution of inter-contact times between mobile devices. Using a diverse set of measured mobility traces, we find as an invariant property that there is a characteristic time, order of half a day, beyond which the distribution decays exponentially. Up to ...

We use a large single particle tracking data set to analyze the short time and small spatial scale motion of quantum dots labeling proteins in cell membranes. Our analysis focuses on the jumps which are the changes in the position of the quantum dots between frames in a movie of their motion. Previously we have shown that the directions of the jumps are uniformly distributed and the jump length...

The webgraph is the graph generated from the link structure of the web pages. In this graph, each node represents a web page and each edge is a hyperlink from one page to another. The webgraph has a particular structure, that is not similar to other known graphs, and it grows continuously. Nowadays it contains more then 25 billion nodes and about 400 billion edges. Even some properties of this ...

Gamma ray bursts (GRBs) are known to have short-time variability and power-law behavior with the index −1.67 in the power spectrum density. Reanalyzing the expanded data, we have found a) the power-law comes from the global profile of the burst and not from the self-similar shots nor rapid fluctuations in the luminosity profile. b) The power indices vary from burst to burst and the value −1.67 ...

We show that the dramatically increasing share of income going to top earners is consistent with the rise of the "power law economy" and argue this may reflect networks and increased digitization. Specifically, tax data (1960-2008) show an increasing dispersion of incomes in the portion of the distribution drawn from a power law, as opposed to the long-established log-normal distribution. We pr...

in this study, the spatial distribution of overwintered adults of sunn pest, eurygaster integriceps puton, was investigated by using dispersion parameters and indices, mathematical distribution, and regression techniques in rainfed wheat fields by sample size of 1 m2 in 2009 and 2010. the dispersion parameters including: mean-variance test and clumping parameter () showed that the overwintered ...

We investigate the degree distribution resulting from graph generation models based on rank-based attachment. In rank-based attachment, all vertices are ranked according to a ranking scheme. The link probability of a given vertex is proportional to its rank raised to the power −α, for some α ∈ (0, 1). Through a rigorous analysis, we show that rank-based attachment models lead to graphs with a p...

We review recent progress in understanding the meaning of mutual information in natural language. Let us define words in a text as strings that occur sufficiently often. In a few previous papers, we have shown that a power-law distribution for so defined words (a.k.a. Herdan's law) is obeyed if there is a similar power-law growth of (algorithmic) mutual information between adjacent portions of ...
