Congenital generalized lipodystrophy (GLD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by near absence of adipose tissue from birth or early infancy and severe insulin resistance. Since Berardinelli described a very rare case of congenital generalized lipodystrophy, nearly 120 cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of GLD which, to the best of our knowledge, is the...

We apply the auxiliary-system approach to study paths to globally generalized synchronization in scale-free networks of identical chaotic oscillators, including Hénon maps, logistic maps, and Lorentz oscillators. As the coupling strength epsilon between nodes of the network is increased, transitions from partially to globally generalized synchronization and intermittent behaviors near the synch...

Near the horizon of a black brane in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space and near the AdS boundary, the long-wavelength fluctuations of the metric exhibit hydrodynamic behaviour. The gauge-gravity duality then relates the boundary hydrodynamics for generalized gravity to that of gauge theories with large finite values of ’t Hooft coupling. We discuss, for this framework, the hydrodynamics of the shear m...

This paper extends a recently developed method for Hopf bifurcation to compute the SNF of generalized Hopf bifurcations. The particular attention is focused on a codimensiontwo generalized Hopf bifurcation. It is shown that the SNF with perturbation parameters cannot be obtained using only near-identity transformation. Additional transformations such as time and parameter rescaling need be intr...
