Research Population-based studies have related exposure to fine particulate air pollution 2004) to cardiovascular diseases and lung cancer. We have established a large retrospective cohort study of mortality in the unionized U.S. trucking industry. Each job category in this population has distinct exposure patterns: drivers are exposed directly to traffic; dockworkers are exposed to trucks in t...

Camouflaging data by generating fake information is a wellknown obfuscation technique for protecting data privacy. The effectiveness of this technique in protecting users’ privacy highly depends on the resemblance of fake information to reality, such that an adversary cannot easily filter such fake information out. In this paper, we focus on a very sensitive and increasingly exposed type of dat...

In the present article, we provide examples of fake quadrics, i.e. complex surfaces of general type with the same numerical invariants as the quadric P × P which are quotients of the bidisc by an irreducible lattice of automorphisms. Moreover we list classes of arithmetic lattices over a real quadratic number field which define a fake quadric and give general results towards a classification of...

Recently, Prasad and Yeung classified all possible fundamental groups of fake projective planes. According to their result, many fake projective planes admit an automorphism of prime order, and in that case the order must be 3 or 7. Let σ be an automorphism of prime order of a fake projective plane X. In this paper we classify all possible structures of the quotient surface X/σ and its minimal ...

The ‘Wave Geometry’ equation of the pre-WWII Hiroshima program is also the key equation of the current ‘fake supergravity’ program. I review the status of (fake) supersymmetric domain walls and (fake) pseudosupersymmetric cosmologies. An extension of the domain-wall/cosmology correspondence to a triple correspondence with instantons shows that ‘pseudosupersymmetry’ has another interpretation as...

Social media for news consumption is becoming popular nowadays. The low cost, easy access and rapid information dissemination of social media bring benefits for people to seek out news timely. However, it also causes the widespread of fake news, i.e., low-quality news pieces that are intentionally fabricated. The fake news brings about several negative effects on individual consumers, news ecos...
