We construct an Enriques surface over Q with empty étale-Brauer set (and hence no rational points) for which there is no algebraic Brauer-Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle. In addition, if there is a transcendental obstruction on our Enriques surface, then we obtain a K3 surface that has a transcendental obstruction to the Hasse principle.

Periods of overall high EEG coherence were found during the practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique. These periods of high coherence were correlated with the subjective experience of pure consciousness, the simplest state of awareness, during Transcendental Meditation. The author proposes that the state of pure consciousness corresponds to the ground state of central nervous system ...

(not quite the final printed version) Amartya Sen's book The Idea of Justice provides a magisterial and accessible survey of many of the themes he has explored and the insights he has developed since his first contributions to moral philosophy and the theory of justice in the 1960s. In this area of thought (just one of several fields to which he has been a major contributor) his career has been...

This study of the effects of the Transcendental Meditation program on drug abuse was performed to determine what therapeutic value the practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique has in reducing the use of nonprescribed drugs. Ten experimental and ten control subjects, matched for past drug use, were monitored for drug consumption over a three-month period. Subjects in the experimental ...

The follow-up to the Human Genome Project has found very little to connect variations in our DNA blueprints to some of our basic individual characteristics. This very surprising "missing heritability" problem, plus a number of existing underappreciated challenges to the DNA-based model, together are consistent with an underlying complementary transcendental contribution to life. Some of the beh...

This paper presents a new approach to improving relation extraction based on minimally supervised learning. By adding some limited closed-world knowledge for confidence estimation of learned rules to the usual seed data, the precision of relation extraction can be considerably improved. Starting from an existing baseline system we demonstrate that utilizing limited closed world knowledge can ef...

substantial movement is one of the most important sides of the gnostic geometry of the transcendental philosophy. in this writing, the notional aspect of the discourse and the way the substantial movement is based on the principality of existence is discussed. given the multiplicity of impressions from the principality of existence and the mentally-positedness (i‘tibāriyyat) of quiddity (māhiyy...

We find explicit solutions for giant magnons and spiky strings on the squashed three dimensional sphere. For a special value of the squashing parameter the solutions describe strings moving in a sector of the conifold, while for another value of the squashing parameter we recover the known results on the round three dimensional sphere. A new feature is that the energy and the momenta enter in t...

We introduce a new approximation technique into the context of complex dynamics that allows us to construct examples transcendental entire functions with unbounded wandering domains. provide an orbit fast escaping domains, answering question Rippon and Stallard. Moreover, these cover all possible types simply-connected domains in terms convergence boundary. In relation conjecture Baker, it was ...
