We used outputs from a model of canopy carbon uptake [Dungan et al. (2004) Functional Ecology 18: 34–42] and measurements of irradiance (PAR, 400–700 nm) intercepted by the canopy to investigate the effect of daily changes in environmental conditions on daily light use efficiency, ε, for a canopy comprising two broadleaved New Zealand tree species with contrasting leaf habit. Irradiance absorbe...

In this paper we present distributed testing algorithms of graph properties in the CONGEST-model [CHFSV16]. Concretely, a distributed one-sided error ε-tester for a property P meets the following specification: if the network has the property P, then all of the network’s processors should output YES, and if the network is ε-far from having the property, according to a predetermined distance mea...

The problem of maximal hub covering as a challenging problem in operation research. Transportation programming seeks to find an optimal location of a set of hubs to reach maximum flow in a network. Since the main structure's parameters of the problem such as origin-destination flows, costs and travel time, change periodically in the real world applications, new issues arise in handling it. In t...

We introduce approximate data exchange, by relaxing classical data exchange problems such as Consistency and Typechecking to their approximate versions based on Property Testing. It provides a natural framework for consistency and safety questions, which first considers approximate solutions and then exact solutions obtained with a Corrector. We consider a model based on transducers of words an...

Dispersive effects from strongππ rescattering in the final state interaction (FSI) of weak K → ππ decays are revisited with the goal to have a global view on their relative importance for the I = 1/2 rule and the ratio ε′/ε in the standard model (SM). We point out that this goal cannot be reached within a pure effective (meson) field approach like chiral perturbation theory in which the dominan...

We investigate the thermal stability of helical hydrophobic oligomers using a three-dimensional, water-explicit lattice model and the Wang-Landau Monte Carlo method. The degree of oligomer helicity is controlled by the parameter ε(mm) < 0, which mimics monomer-monomer hydrogen bond interactions leading to the formation of helical turns in atomistic proteins. We vary |ε(mm)| between 0 and 4.5 kc...

We provide a complete characterization for the computational complexity of finding approximate equilibria in two-action graphical games. consider two most well-studied approximation notions: ε-Nash (ε-NE) and ε-well-supported Nash (ε-WSNE), where ε is [0,1]. prove that computing an ε-NE PPAD-complete any constant smaller than 1/2, while very simple algorithm (namely, letting all players mix uni...

This study presents mathematical model of the internal waves and examines wave propagation in a two-layer fluid flow. Elements functional-analytical approach are used to develop model. A flat unsteady motion liquid under cover over bottom is considered. The assumed be ideal incompressible. Internal caused by external pressure application interface between layers, oscillation disturbances power ...

The Standard Model (SM) prediction for the ratio ε′/ε appears to be significantly below the experimental data. Also εK in the SM tends to be below the data. Any new physics (NP) removing these anomalies will first of all have impact on flavour observables in the K meson system, in particular on rare decays K+ → π+νν̄, KL → π0νν̄, KL → μ+μ− and KL → π0`+`− and ∆MK . Restricting the operators contr...
