Four types of Waardenburg syndrome have now been delineated on the basis of clinical and genetic criteria. The molecular defective gene ...

In this article I examine how Edward Bond realizes his dramaturgy of crisis through dystopian imagination in The Chair Plays. I argue that Bond’s idea of ‘crisis’ refers to the ‘logic of Auschwitz’ in an Adornian sense, that is, the crisis of modernist instrumental rationality.

In this note, we prove that for every θ ≥ 115 121 and x ≥ x0(θ), the short interval (x, x + xθ] contains at least one prime number of the form p = 1+m2 +n2 with (m,n) = 1. This improves a similar result due to Huxley and Iwaniec, which requires θ ≥ 99 100 . §
