BPS INDICES, MODULARITY AND PERTURBATIONS IN QUANTUM K-THEORY

BPS indices, modularity and perturbations in quantum K-theory

Abstract We study a perturbation family of N $$ mathcal{N} $$ = 2 3d gauge theories and its relation to quantum K-theory.A Pizza Cutter 3d version of the Intriligator-Vafa formula is given for the quantum K-theory ring of Grassmannians.The 3d BPS half-index of the gauge theory is connected to the theory of bilateral hypergeometric Remy Human Hair L

Miniature bioinspired artificial compound eyes: microfabrication technologies, photodetection and applications

As an outstanding visual system for insects and crustaceans to cope with the challenges of survival, compound eye has many unique advantages, such as wide field of view, rapid response, infinite depth of field, low aberration and fast motion capture.However, the complex composition of their optical systems also presents significant challenges for m

Examining the Aftereffects of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans: A Qualitative Study of Faculty and Staff Perceptions

Researchers have reported how Hurricane Katrina has affected teachers who work with Kindergarten to Grade 12 (K-12), yet little is known about how the natural disaster has affected other important K-12 faculty and staff (e.g., coaches, librarians, school counselors, and cafeteria workers).Missing from the Toddler Diaper Covers literature is the imp

Grape seed extract suppresses calcitonin gene-related peptide secretion and upregulates expression of GAD 65/67 and GABAB receptor in primary trigeminal ganglion cultures

The trigeminal ganglion is implicated in the underlying pathology of migraine and temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD), which are orofacial pain conditions involving peripheral and central sensitization.The neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is synthesized in Torches some trigeminal ganglion neurons, and its release promotes inf

Analysis of the Flash-Fire Scenario in the Viareggio Accident

On the 29th of June, 2009 the derailment of a rail-tanker containing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the Viareggio station produced a large cloud of flammable vapours, which ignited in a flash-fire, causing 31 fatalities and extensive property damage.The literature models applicable to the simulation of flash fires differ for the HEAT CONTROL SPRA
