I give a brief overview of the resolution of the apparent problem of reconciling time symmetric microscopic dynamic with time asymmetric equations describing the evolution of macroscopic variables. I then show how the large deviation function of the stationary state of the microscopic system can be used as a Lyapunov function for the macroscopic evolution equations. —————————————————————————— G...

in this paper taqi modarresi’s life and his works are discussed briefly. he is one of the early persian writers in diaspora who left iran decades before the islamic revolution.  his novels have been published both in english and persian. azra-ye khalvatneshin [the virgin of solitude], which was published posthumously in an english translation in 2008 and in the original persian in 2010, both in...

Through transposon mutagenesis and DNA sequence analysis, the main disease determinant of the entomopathogenic bacterium Yersinia entomophaga MH96 was localized to an ~32-kb pathogenicity island (PAI) designated PAI(Ye₉₆). Residing within PAI(Ye₉₆) are seven open reading frames that encode an insecticidal toxin complex (TC), comprising not only the readily recognized toxin complex A (TCA), TCB,...

Ye, Lin, and Taylor (2008, Biometrics 64, 1238-1246) proposed a joint model for longitudinal measurements and time-to-event data in which the longitudinal measurements are modeled with a semiparametric mixed model to allow for the complex patterns in longitudinal biomarker data. They proposed a two-stage regression calibration approach that is simpler to implement than a joint modeling approach...

Let E = ((eij))n×n be a fixed array of real numbers such that eij = eji, eii = 0 for 1 ≤ i, j ≤ n. Let the permutation group be denoted by Sn and the collection of involutions with no fixed points by Πn, that is, Πn = {π ∈ Sn : π = id, π(i) 6= i∀i} with id denoting the identity permutation. For π uniformly chosen from Πn, let YE = ∑n i=1 eiπ(i) and W = (YE − μE)/σE where μE = E(YE) and σ 2 E = ...
