We show how to recover Euler's formula for $\zeta(2n)$, as well as $L_{\chi_4}(2n+1)$, for any integer $n$, from the knowledge of the density of the product $\mathbb{C}_1,\mathbb{C}_2\ldots,\mathbb{C}_k$, for any $k\geq 1$, where the $\mathbb{C}_i$'s are independent standard Cauchy variables.

Some probabilistic aspects of the number variance statistic are investigated. Infinite systems of independent Brownian motions and symmetric alpha-stable processes are used to construct explicit new examples of processes which exhibit both divergent and saturating number variance behaviour. We derive…

Clinicians, researchers, public health officials, infection control officers, travel medicine practitioners and many other medical professionals are constantly being bombarded with information about new journals and web sites. The array of new information is overwhelming. The National Library of Medicine…

It is an interesting conundrum wherein we find ourselves in this educational world. We can focus on being outstanding educators and teachers, we can work in developing extensive research agendas and lengthy publication and presentation lists, or we can strive…

BACKGROUND:Global health research is essential for development. A major issue is the inequitable distribution of research efforts and funds directed towards populations suffering the world's greatest health problems. This imbalance is fostering major attempts at redirecting research to the health…

BACKGROUND:Phylogenetic analyses based on datasets rich in both genes and species (phylogenomics) are becoming a standard approach to resolve evolutionary questions. However, several difficulties are associated with the assembly of large datasets, such as multiple copies of a gene per…

Little is known about how HIV/AIDS affects people with disabilities, although international literature suggests that people with learning disabilities and other disabilities may be at increased vulnerability to HIV infection. One factor that increases vulnerability to HIV is the lack…
