Aim Climate change is causing shifts in the range of species worldwide. In high-altitude areas forests are often observed to be shifting their upper limits to higher altitudes in response to warming temperatures. Although this phenomenon is well described, the possible consequences of this for the wider forest community have not been fully considered. In this study, we used epiphytic macro-lich...

We present a candidate counterexample to the easy cylinders conjecture, which was recently suggested by Manindra Agrawal and Osamu Watanabe (see ECCC, TR09-019). Loosely speaking, the conjecture asserts that any 1-1 function in P/poly can be decomposed into “cylinders” of sub-exponential size that can each be inverted by some polynomial-size circuit. Although all popular one-way functions have ...
