Structural transitions in biomolecules - a numerical comparison of two approaches for the study of phase transitions in small systems

We compare two recently proposed methods for the characterization of phase transitions in small systems. The usefulness of these techniques is evaluated for the case of structural transition in alanine-based peptides.Comment: Accepted for publication in Int. J. Mol.

The anatomy of high growth firms in Scotland

There is a growing volume of scholarly evidence from various countries which points to high growth firms (HGFs) as a key force fuelling economic growth. These businesses are typically highly dynamic enterprises which undertake very rapid growth, generating substantial levels of turnover and employment growth over relatively short periods of time (BERR, 2009; Anyadike-Danes et al, 2009; Mason et al, 2009; Henrekson and Johnannson, 2010)

Confiscation orders and abuse of process: discretion to prevent "double whammy" under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002

Explores the circumstances in which the making of an application for a confiscation order might amount to an abuse of process entitling the court to grant a stay of proceedings. Outlines the facts leading to the Court of Appeal decision in R. (on the application of BERR) v Lowe and reviews the case law referred to by the Court of Appeal. Highlights other cases decided subsequent to Lowe

Connecting Multiple-unicast and Network Error Correction: Reduction and Unachievability

We show that solving a multiple-unicast network coding problem can be reduced to solving a single-unicast network error correction problem, where an adversary may jam at most a single edge in the network. Specifically, we present an efficient reduction that maps a multiple-unicast network coding instance to a network error correction instance while preserving feasibility. The reduction holds for both the zero probability of error model and the vanishing probability of error model. Previous reductions are restricted to the zero-error case. As an application of the reduction, we present a constructive example showing that the single-unicast network error correction capacity may not be achievable, a result of separate interest.Comment: ISIT 2015. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1410.190
