We develop some useful techinques for integrating over Higgs branches in supersymmetric theories with 4 and 8 supercharges. In particular, we define a regularized volume for hyperkahler quotients. We evaluate this volume for certain ALE and ALF spaces in terms of the hyperkahler periods. We also reduce these volumes for a large class of hyperkahler quotients to simpler integrals. These quotient...

The politics of the Internet is a common theme in cybertheory, though commentators work with a variety of different notions of the political. Among the main issues are the question of whether the Internet may enhance or detract from the processes of deliberation traditionally seen as crucial to a strong civil society, along with that of whether online voting could usher in an era direct democra...

For more than 40 years now, the developing kidney has served as a model paradigm for epithelial-mesenchymal interactions. The principles of inductive signaling, epithelial cell differentiation, and pattern formation are now being addressed with modern genetic and biochemical tools. In addition to the mammalian kidney organ culture model, both zebrafish and Xenopus laevis demonstrate great poten...
