Current flow of information necessitates a systematic approach to what authors, reviewers and editors read and use as references. The objectivity of communication is increasingly dependent on a comprehensive literature search through online databases (1). Academic institutions wishing to succeed in the global competition secure access to the prestigious databases and archives (2). Journal edito...

We present a novel class of higher order energies motivated by the study of network formation in binary mixtures of functionalized polymers and solvent. For a broad class of Lagrangians, we introduce their functionalized form, which is a higher order energy balancing the square of the variational derivative against the original energy. We show that the functionalized energies have global minimi...
