Gibbs Measures In Biology And Physics The Potts Model


Free Download Gibbs Measures In Biology And Physics: The Potts Model by Utkir A Rozikov
English | July 29, 2022 | ISBN: 9811251231 | 366 pages | MOBI | 45 Mb
This book presents recently obtained mathematical results on Gibbs measures of the q-state Potts model on the integer lattice and on Cayley trees. It also illustrates many applications of the Potts model to real-world situations in biology, physics, financial engineering, medicine, and sociology, as well as in some examples of alloy behavior, cell sorting, flocking birds, flowing foams, and image segmentation. Gibbs measure is one of the important measures in various problems of probability theory and statistical mechanics. It is a measure associated with the Hamiltonian of a biological or physical system. Each Gibbs measure gives a state of the system. The main problem for a given Hamiltonian on a countable lattice is to describe all of its possible Gibbs measures. The existence of some values of parameters at which the uniqueness of Gibbs measure switches to non-uniqueness is interpreted as a phase transition. This book informs the reader about what has been (mathematically) done in the theory of Gibbs measures of the Potts model and the numerous applications of the Potts model. The main aim is to facilitate the readers (in mathematical biology, statistical physics, applied mathematics, probability and measure theory) to progress into an in-depth understanding by giving a systematic review of the theory of Gibbs measures of the Potts model and its applications.

The Science of Life Biology Parent Lesson Planner


Free Download Master Books, "The Science of Life: Biology Parent Lesson Planner"
English | ISBN: 0890517355 | 2013 | 139 pages | PDF | 1535 KB
Features: Each suggested weekly schedule has three easy-to-manage lessons which combine reading, worksheets, and vocabulary-building. Designed to allow your student to be independent, materials in this resource are divided by section so you can remove quizzes, tests, and answer keys before beginning the coursework. As always, you are encouraged to adjust the schedule and materials as you need to in order to best work within your educational program. Workflow: Students will read the pages in their book and then answer the questions at the end of each chapter. Tests are given at regular intervals. Lesson Scheduling: Space is given for assignment dates. There is flexibility in scheduling. For example, the parent may opt for a M W schedule rather than a M, W, F schedule. Each week listed has five days but due to vacations the school work week may not be M F. Please adapt the days to your school schedule. As the student completes each assignment, he/she should put an X in the box. Test grades should also be recorded in the lesson plan where indicated."

This is the sixth volume of a ten-volume series on The Natural History of the Crustacea. The volume synthesizes in nineteen chapters our current understanding of diverse topics in crustacean reproductive biology. In the first part of this book, the chapters address allocation strategies to reproduction, gamete production, brooding behavior, and other components of parental care in crustaceans. The second part of the volume centers on sexual systems in crustaceans. The third section of the volume covers crustacean mating systems and sexual selection. Reproductive Biology ends with three chapters covering diverse topics including reproductive rhythms, crustacean personality research, and record breaking crustaceans with respect to reproductive characters.

Developmental Biology and Larval Ecology The Natural History of the Crustacea, Volume 7


Free Download Klaus Anger, "Developmental Biology and Larval Ecology: The Natural History of the Crustacea, Volume 7"
English | ISBN: 0190648953 | 2020 | 464 pages | EPUB | 40 MB
This is the seventh volume of a ten-volume series on The Natural History of the Crustacea. Chapters in this volume synthesize our current understanding of early crustacean development from the egg through the embryonic and larval phase. The first part of this book focuses on the elemental aspects of crustacean embryonic development. The second part of the book provides an account of the larval phase of crustaceans and describes processes that influence the development from hatching to an adult-like juvenile. The third and final part of the book explores ecological interactions during the planktonic phase and how crustacean larvae manage to find food, navigate the dynamic water column, and avoid predators in a medium that offers few refuges.
