The growth rate under both natural and experimental conditions of several littoral and sublittoral barnacles has recently been dealt with in some detail (Barnes & Powell, 1953, q.v. for earlier references; Barnes, 1952-53; Barnes & Barnes, 1954; Crisp, 1954; Barnes & Barnes, 1956; Barnes, 1956). No comparable data for Verruca stroemia are reported in the literature. Although V. stroemia has bee...

The species of the genus Ogdoconta Butler, 1891 (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Condicinae, Condicini) from North America north of Mexico are reviewed, and a description of the genus is given. Ogdoconta satana Metzler, Knudson & Poole, sp. n., is described from New Mexico and Texas, Ogdoconta rufipenna Metzler, Knudson & Poole, sp. n., is described from Arizona, and Ogdoconta fergusoni Metzler & Lafon...

EXTENDED ABSTRACT. In 2008, Micciancio and Nicolosi [1] have proposed a low-complexity algorithm to decode the infinite Barnes-Wall lattice BW2m ⊂ C2m for any m ≥ 1 such that the worst-case complexity is O ( N log(N) ) where N = 2. More recently, Construction A′ [2] of Barnes-Wall lattices has been proposed wherein the BW2m can be obtained as BW2m = (1+ i) mZ[i]2m ⊕L2m such that L2m is a cubic-...

The Bernoulli–Barnes polynomials are defined as a natural multidimensional extension of 21 the classical Bernoulli polynomials. Many of the properties of the Bernoulli polynomials 22 admit extensions to this new family. A specific expression involving the Bernoulli–Barnes 23 polynomials has recently appeared in the context of self-dual sequences. The work pre24 sented here provides a proof of t...

We present analytic expressions of all integrals required to complete the explicit evaluation of the real-virtual integrated counterterms needed to define a recently proposed subtraction scheme for jet cross sections at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. We use the Mellin-Barnes representation of these integrals in 4 − 2ǫ dimensions to obtain the coefficients of their Laurent expansions arou...

Given a protoset of d-dimensional polyominoes, we ask which boxes can be packed by the protoset. In some cases, it may be too difficult to give a complete answer to this question, so we ask the easier question about determining all sufficiently large boxes that can be packed. (We say that a box is “sufficiently large” if all edge lengths are ≥ C for some large C.) We give numerous examples (mos...
