    Full operators and algebras generated by invertible operators

    Full text link
    In the present work we characterized full operators and we showed some properties that have nonfull injectives operators. With the results developed for full operators, we affirmatively respond two questions formulated by Bravo and Feintuch on when the inverse of an operator can be weakly approximated by polynomials in the operatorComment: 5 page

    A multidimensional perspective on microbial interactions

    Get PDF
    Beyond being simply positive or negative, beneficial or inhibitory, microbial interactions can involve a diverse set of mechanisms, dependencies and dynamical properties. These more nuanced features have been described in great detail for some specific types of interactions, (e.g. pairwise metabolic cross-feeding, quorum sensing or antibiotic killing), often with the use of quantitative measurements and insight derived from modeling. With a growing understanding of the composition and dynamics of complex microbial communities for human health and other applications, we face the challenge of integrating information about these different interactions into comprehensive quantitative frameworks. Here, we review the literature on a wide set of microbial interactions, and explore the potential value of a formal categorization based on multidimensional vectors of attributes. We propose that such an encoding can facilitate systematic, direct comparisons of interaction mechanisms and dependencies, and we discuss the relevance of an atlas of interactions for future modeling and rational design efforts.R01 GM121950 - NIGMS NIH HHSPublished versio

    Three-dimensional Dirac oscillator in a thermal bath

    Full text link
    The thermal properties of the three-dimensional Dirac oscillator are considered. The canonical partition function is determined, and the high-temperature limit is assessed. The degeneracy of energy levels and their physical implications on the main thermodynamic functions are analyzed, revealing that these functions assume values greater than the one-dimensional case. So that at high temperatures, the limit value of the specific heat is three times bigger.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures. Text improved, references added.
