Stratifying derived categories of cochains on certain spaces
In recent years, Benson, Iyengar and Krause have developed a theory of
stratification for compactly generated triangulated categories with an action
of a graded commutative Noetherian ring. Stratification implies a
classification of localizing and thick subcategories in terms of subsets of the
prime ideal spectrum of the given ring. In this paper two stratification
results are presented: one for the derived category of a commutative
ring-spectrum with polynomial homotopy and another for the derived category of
cochains on certain spaces. We also give the stratification of cochains on a
space a topological content.Comment: 27 page
Spin-dependent effective interactions for halo nuclei
We discuss the spin-dependence of the effective two-body interactions
appropriate for three-body computations. The only reasonable choice seems to be
the fine and hyperfine interactions known for atomic electrons interacting with
the nucleus. One exception is the nucleon-nucleon interaction imposing a
different type of symmetry. We use the two-neutron halo nucleus 11Li as
illustration. We demonstrate that models with the wrong spin-dependence are
basically without predictive power. The Pauli forbidden core and valence states
must be consistently treated.Comment: TeX file, 6 pages, 3 postscript figure
Prevalence of Frailty in European Emergency Departments (FEED): an international flash mob study
Introduction
Current emergency care systems are not optimized to respond to multiple and complex problems associated with frailty. Services may require reconfiguration to effectively deliver comprehensive frailty care, yet its prevalence and variation are poorly understood. This study primarily determined the prevalence of frailty among older people attending emergency care.
Methods
This cross-sectional study used a flash mob approach to collect observational European emergency care data over a 24-h period (04 July 2023). Sites were identified through the European Task Force for Geriatric Emergency Medicine collaboration and social media. Data were collected for all individuals aged 65 + who attended emergency care, and for all adults aged 18 + at a subset of sites. Variables included demographics, Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), vital signs, and disposition. European and national frailty prevalence was determined with proportions with each CFS level and with dichotomized CFS 5 + (mild or more severe frailty).
Results
Sixty-two sites in fourteen European countries recruited five thousand seven hundred eighty-five individuals. 40% of 3479 older people had at least mild frailty, with countries ranging from 26 to 51%. They had median age 77 (IQR, 13) years and 53% were female. Across 22 sites observing all adult attenders, older people living with frailty comprised 14%.
Conclusion
40% of older people using European emergency care had CFS 5 + . Frailty prevalence varied widely among European care systems. These differences likely reflected entrance selection and provide windows of opportunity for system configuration and workforce planning
Rational S¹-Equivariant Elliptic Cohomology.
We study the rational S¹-equivariant cohomology theory associated to an elliptic curve. The representing S¹-spectrum is identified using the first author's model of rational S¹-spectra, and this is used to make various calculations
