Correlations and Omori law in Spamming
The most costly and annoying characteristic of the e-mail communication system is the large number of unsolicited commercial e-mails, known as spams, that are continuously received. Via the investigation of the statistical properties of the spam delivering intertimes, we show that spams delivered to a given recipient are time correlated: if the intertime between two consecutive spams is small (...
متن کاملOn the Omori–Yau Maximum Principle in Riemannian submersions
We discuss some sufficient conditions for the validity of the weak and the strong Omori–Yau maximum principle in Riemannian submersions.
متن کاملVogt: 3D Characteristics of Fire Ant Mounds 553 THREE-DIMENSIONAL SAMPLING METHOD FOR CHARACTERIZING ANT MOUNDS
A field-portable 3D laser scanner was employed as a means of digitizing the surface of fire ant ( Solenopsis invicta Buren) mounds for analysis of shape and orientation in Mississippi and Oklahoma. Estimates of above-ground mound volume obtained through manual measurements of mound length, width, and height were higher and more variable than estimates obtained by summing the area underneath int...
متن کاملMagnitude-Dependent Omori Law: Empirical Study and Theory
We propose a new physically-based “multifractal stress activation” model of earthquake interaction and triggering based on two simple ingredients: (i) a seismic rupture results from activated processes giving an exponential dependence on the local stress; (ii) the stress relaxation has a long memory. The combination of these two effects predicts in a rather general way that seismic decay rates ...
متن کاملSolar-powered ventilation of African termite mounds.
How termite mounds function to facilitate climate control is still only partially understood. Recent experimental evidence in the mounds of a single species, the south Asian termite Odontotermes obesus, suggests that the daily oscillations of radiant heating associated with diurnal insolation patterns drive convective flow within them. How general this mechanism is remains unknown. To probe thi...
