The researchers found that many respondents had interpreted questions differently from the intended meaning and that nonsampling error was much greater than standard sampling error. They concluded that using qualitative research techniques to supplement and complement quantitative techniques can improve data validity and reduce nonsampling error. In s...

Populations are either enhanced via resonant cycles or suppressed via attenuant cycles by periodic environments. We develop a signature function for predicting the response of discretely reproducing populations to 2-periodic fluctuations of both a characteristic of the environment (carrying capacity), and a characteristic of the population (inherent growth rate). Our signature function is the s...

1 Characteristic 0 We start with a basic question: given a polynomial f ∈ C[z1, · · · , zn] with a singularity at 0, how can we measure the “singularness” of this polynomial in a precise way? In other words: we can look at various singularities and see intuitively that some singularities are worse than others. For instance, it feels like a transverse self-intersection is probably not as bad as ...
