• #### (0,2) hybrid models ﻿

(Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018-09-01)
© 2018, The Author(s). We introduce a class of (0,2) superconformal field theories based on hybrid geometries, generalizing various known constructions. We develop techniques for the computation of the complete massless ...
• #### (1,1) L-space knots ﻿

(COMPOSITIO MATHEMATICA, 2018-05-01)
We characterize the (1, 1) knots in the three-sphere and lens spaces that admit non-trivial L-space surgeries. As a corollary, 1-bridge braids in these manifolds admit non- trivial L-space surgeries. We also recover ...
• #### A baseline paleoecological study for the Santa Cruz Formation (late–early Miocene) at the Atlantic coast of Patagonia, Argentina ﻿

(Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2010-06)
Coastal exposures of the Santa Cruz Formation (late-early Miocene, southern Patagonia, Argentina) between the Coyle and Gallegos rivers have been a fertile ground for recovery of Miocene vertebrates for more than 100 years. ...
• #### A classical proof that the algebraic homotopy class of a rational function is the residue pairing ﻿

(Linear Algebra and Its Applications, 2020-06-15)
© 2020 Elsevier Inc. Cazanave has identified the algebraic homotopy class of a rational function of 1 variable with an explicit nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form. Here we show that Hurwitz's proof of a classical result ...
• #### A formal Anthropocene is compatible with but distinct from its diachronous anthropogenic counterparts: a response to W.F. Ruddiman’s ‘three flaws in defining a formal Anthropocene’ ﻿

(Progress in Physical Geography, 2019-06-01)
© The Author(s) 2019. We analyse the ‘three flaws’ to potentially defining a formal Anthropocene geological time unit as advanced by Ruddiman (2018). (1) We recognize a long record of pre-industrial human impacts, but note ...
• #### A hybrid ion-atom trap with integrated high resolution mass spectrometer ﻿

(Review of Scientific Instruments, 2019-10-01)
© 2019 Author(s). In this article, we describe the design, construction, and implementation of our ion-atom hybrid system incorporating a high resolution time of flight mass spectrometer (TOFMS). Potassium atoms (39K) in ...
• #### A microscopic model of the Stokes-Einstein relation in arbitrary dimension. ﻿

(The Journal of chemical physics, 2018-06)
The Stokes-Einstein relation (SER) is one of the most robust and widely employed results from the theory of liquids. Yet sizable deviations can be observed for self-solvation, which cannot be explained by the standard ...
• #### A slicing obstruction from the $\frac {10}{8}$ theorem ﻿

(Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2016-08-29)
© 2016 American Mathematical Society. From Furuta’s 10/8 theorem, we derive a smooth slicing obstruction for knots in S3 using a spin 4-manifold whose boundary is 0-surgery on a knot. We show that this obstruction is able ...
• #### A stochastic-Lagrangian particle system for the Navier-Stokes equations ﻿

(Nonlinearity, 2008-11-01)
This paper is based on a formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations developed by Constantin and the first author (Commun. Pure Appl. Math. at press, arXiv:math.PR/0511067), where the velocity field of a viscous incompressible ...
• #### An adaptive Euler-Maruyama scheme for SDEs: Convergence and stability ﻿

(IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis, 2007-01-01)
The understanding of adaptive algorithms for stochastic differential equations (SDEs) is an open area, where many issues related to both convergence and stability (long-time behaviour) of algorithms are unresolved. This ...
• #### An Empirical Comparison of Multiple Imputation Methods for Categorical Data ﻿

(The American Statistician, 2017-04-03)
© 2017 American Statistical Association. Multiple imputation is a common approach for dealing with missing values in statistical databases. The imputer fills in missing values with draws from predictive models estimated ...
• #### An energy stable C0 finite element scheme for a quasi-incompressible phase-field model of moving contact line with variable density ﻿

(Journal of Computational Physics, 2020-03-15)
In this paper, we focus on modeling and simulation of two-phase flow problems with moving contact lines and variable density. A thermodynamically consistent phase-field model with general Navier boundary condition is developed ...
• #### An improved approach to age-modeling in deep time: Implications for the Santa Cruz Formation, Argentina ﻿

(Bulletin of the Geological Society of America, 2020-01-01)
© 2019 Geological Society of America. Accurate age-depth models for proxy records are crucial for inferring changes to the environment through space and time, yet traditional methods of constructing these models ...
• #### Analyzing X-ray tomographies of granular packings. ﻿

(The Review of scientific instruments, 2017-05)
Starting from three-dimensional volume data of a granular packing, as, e.g., obtained by X-ray Computed Tomography, we discuss methods to first detect the individual particles in the sample and then analyze their properties. ...
• #### Anomalous dissipation in a stochastically forced infinite-dimensional system of coupled oscillators ﻿

(Journal of Statistical Physics, 2007-09-01)
We study a system of stochastically forced infinite-dimensional coupled harmonic oscillators. Although this system formally conserves energy and is not explicitly dissipative, we show that it has a nontrivial invariant ...
• #### Ballistic Graphene Josephson Junctions from the Short to the Long Junction Regimes. ﻿

(Physical review letters, 2016-12-02)
We investigate the critical current I_{C} of ballistic Josephson junctions made of encapsulated graphene-boron-nitride heterostructures. We observe a crossover from the short to the long junction regimes as the length of ...
