We study the system of equations of motion for inextensible strings. This system possesses many internal symmetries, and is related to discontinuous systems of conservation laws and the total variation wave equation. We prove existence of generalized...
We discuss general features of the $β$-function equations for spatially flat, $(d+1)$-dimensional cosmological backgrounds at lowest order in the string-loop expansion, but to all orders in $α'$. In the special case of constant curvature and a line...
Accurate cosmological parameter estimates using polarization data of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) put stringent requirements on map calibration, as highlighted in the recent results from the Planck satellite. In this paper, we point out that...
Accurate parsing of citation reference strings is crucial to automatically construct scholarly databases such as Google Scholar or Semantic Scholar. Citation field extraction (CFE) is precisely this task---given a reference label which tokens refer t...
:guitar: Programatically handle the notes of fretted string instruments, like the guitar (⭐ 14)
Look up fret in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. A fret is a raised portion on the neck of a stringed instrument. Fret or FRET may also refer to: Förster
The Appalachian dulcimer (many variant names; see below) is a fretted string instrument of the zither family, typically with three or four strings, originally
Fretboard diagram generator for fretted stringed instruments. (⭐ 41)
Converts a midi file to guitar tabs (or any fretted string instrument) (⭐ 115)
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruption, particularly in retail. Where essential demand cannot be fulfilled online, or where more stringent measures have been relaxed, customers must visit shop premises in person. This naturally giv...
Synopsis: Carlos was an ordinary software engineer on Earth, up until he died and found himself in a fantasy world of dungeons, magic, and adventure. This new world offers many fascinating possibilit...
Differential equations with infinitely many derivatives, sometimes also referred to as ``nonlocal'' differential equations, appear frequently in branches of modern physics such as string theory, gravitation and cosmology. The goal of this paper is to...
Flaw is an American nu metal band from Louisville, Kentucky, formed by guitarist Jason Daunt in 1996. After a string of rough independent recordings in
African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious viral disease that poses a significant threat to the swine industry, requiring stringent control measures, including movement restrictions that delay pig placements, impacting business continuity. The...
Donald Trump says he'll release names of a string of high-profile men - said to include several Brits - who visited sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's Caribbean island if he's re-elected in November Jef...
We propose NEMO, a system for extracting organization names in the affiliation and normalizing them to a canonical organization name. Our parsing process involves multi-layered rule matching with multiple dictionaries. The system achieves more than 9...
This work, which extends Squire et al. [ApJL, 830 L25 (2016)], explores the effect of self-generated pressure anisotropy on linearly polarized shear-Alfvén fluctuations in low-collisionality plasmas. Such anisotropies lead to stringent limits on the...
Acrobatic James bond style in Funk mode : Deep funk bass that pulses in silence, silky wah-wah guitar, John Barry-inspired strings, Quincy Jones arrangements. A sexy 70s groove, like James Bond on a ...
Lee Smolin's casual accounting of special and general relativity in The Trouble with Physics raises an interesting question: is it possible to develop a legitimate argument concerning string theories starting from a shaky basis? This is apparently...
We attempt to quantify the widely-held belief that large hierarchies induced by strongly-warped geometries are common in the string theory landscape. To this end, we focus on the arguably best-understood subset of vacua -- type IIB Calabi-Yau orien...
