A harmonização orofacial (HOF) desempenha um papel fundamental ao abordar alterações funcionais da face e boca, visando restabelecer a funcionalidade equilíbrio biomecânico para melhorar qualidade de vida do paciente. Além tratar problemas estéticos, HOF traz benefícios sistema mastigatório, respiratório vocal. Por outro lado, o bruxismo, caracterizado pelo ranger ou apertar dos dentes, pode le...

In this article, we give a negative answer to a question of Hof, Knill and Simon (1995) concerning purely morphic sequences obtained from primitive morphism containing an infinite number of palindromes. Their conjecture states that such palindromic sequences arise from substitutions that are in class P. The conjecture was proven for the binary alphabet by B. Tan in 2007. We give here a countere...

We study the palindrome complexity of infinite sequences on finite alphabets, i.e., the number of palindromic factors (blocks) of given length occurring in a given sequence. We survey the known results and obtain new results for some sequences, in particular for Rote sequences and for fixed points of primitive morphisms of constant length belonging to “class P” of Hof-Knill-Simon. We also give ...

A recent study (Eilam-Stock T, Xu P, Cao M, Gu X, Van Dam NT, Anagnostou E, Kolevzon A, Soorya L, Park Y, Siller M, He Y, Hof PR, Fan J. Brain 137: 153-171, 2014) demonstrated that resting state electrodermal activity is correlated with different patterns of brain activity in subjects with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) than in typical controls. These results are considered in light of theories...

Quantum mechanical calculations are performed on 116 conformers of the protein ubiquitin (Lange et al., Science 2008, 320, 1471–1475). The results indicate that the heat of formation (HOF), dipole moment, energy of the frontier orbitals HOMO and LUMO, and HOMO-LUMO gap fluctuate within their corresponding ranges. This study thus provides a link between the conformational dynamics of a protein a...
