    Applications of multifractal divergence points to some sets of d-tuples of numbers defined by their N-adic expansion

    No full text
    AbstractIn this paper we apply the techniques and results from the theory of multifractal divergence points developed in [L. Olsen, Multifractal analysis of divergence points of deformed measure theoretical Birkhoff averages, Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées 82 (2003) 1591–1649; L. Olsen, Multifractal analysis of divergence points of deformed measure theoretical Birkhoff averages III, Preprint (2002); L. Olsen, S. Winter, J. London Math. Soc. 67 (2003) 103–122; L. Olsen, S. Winter, Multifractal analysis of divergence points of deformed measure theoretical Birkhoff averages II, Preprint (2001)] to give a systematic and detailed account of the Hausdorff dimensions of sets of d-tuples numbers defined in terms of the asymptotic behaviour of the frequencies of the digits in their N-adic expansion. Using the method and results from [L. Olsen, Multifractal analysis of divergence points of deformed measure theoretical Birkhoff averages, Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées 82 (2003) 1591–1649; L. Olsen, Multifractal analysis of divergence points of deformed measure theoretical Birkhoff averages III, Preprint (2002); L. Olsen, S. Winter, J. London Math. Soc. 67 (2003) 103–122; L. Olsen, S. Winter, Multifractal analysis of divergence points of deformed measure theoretical Birkhoff averages II, Preprint (2001)] we investigate and compute the Hausdorff dimension of several new sets of d-tuples of numbers. In particular, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of a large class of sets of d-tuples numbers for which the limiting frequencies of the digits in their N-adic expansion do not exist. Such sets have only very rarely been studied. In addition, our techniques provide simple proofs of higher-dimensional and non-linear generalizations of known results, by Cajar and Volkmann and others, on the Hausdorff dimension of sets of normal and non-normal numbers

    Pearson GA, Hoarau G, Lago-Leston A, et al. An Expressed Sequence Tag Analysis of the Intertidal Brown Seaweeds Fucus serratus (L.) and F. vesiculosus (L.) (Heterokontophyta, Phaeophyceae) in Response to Abiotic Stressors. Marine Biotechnology. 2009;12(2):195-213.In order to aid gene discovery and uncover genes responding to abiotic stressors in stress-tolerant brown algae of the genus Fucus, expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were studied in two species, Fucus serratus and Fucus vesiculosus. Clustering of over 12,000 ESTs from three libraries for heat shock/recovery and desiccation/rehydration resulted in identification of 2,503, 1,290, and 2,409 unigenes from heat-shocked F. serratus, desiccated F. serratus, and desiccated F. vesiculosus, respectively. Low overall annotation rates (18–31%) were strongly associated with the presence of long 3' untranslated regions in Fucus transcripts, as shown by analyses of predicted protein-coding sequence in annotated and nonannotated tentative consensus sequences. Posttranslational modification genes were overrepresented in the heat shock/recovery library, including many chaperones, the most abundant of which were a family of small heat shock protein transcripts, Hsp90 and Hsp70 members. Transcripts of LI818-like light-harvesting genes implicated in photoprotection were also expressed during heat shock in high light. The expression of several heat-shock-responsive genes was confirmed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. However, candidate genes were notably absent from both desiccation/rehydration libraries, while the responses of the two species to desiccation were divergent, perhaps reflecting the species-specific physiological differences in stress tolerance previously established. Desiccation-tolerant F. vesiculosus overexpressed at least 17 ribosomal protein genes and two ubiquitinribosomal protein fusion genes, suggesting that ribosome function and/or biogenesis are important during cycles of rapid desiccation and rehydration in the intertidal zone and possibly indicate parallels with other poikilohydric organ organisms such as desiccation-tolerant bryophytes

    Immunoglobulin-binding domains of peptostreptococcal protein L enhance vaginal colonization of mice by Streptococcus gordonii

    No full text
    Protein L, an immunoglobulin-binding protein of some strains of the anaerobic bacterium Peptostreptococcus magnus, has been hypothesized to be a virulence determinant in bacterial vaginosis. In order to investigate the role of protein L in peptostreptococcal virulence, the Ig-binding domains of protein L were expressed at the surface of the human oral commensal Streptococcus gordonii. Recombinant streptococci were used in vaginal colonization experiments, and protein L-expressing S. gordonii demonstrated enhanced ability to colonize the vaginal mucosa. Compared to the control strain, they also persisted for a longer period in the murine vagina

    False discovery rate for functional data

    No full text
    Since Benjamini and Hochberg introduced false discovery rate (FDR) in their seminal paper, this has become a very popular approach to the multiple comparisons problem. An increasingly popular topic within functional data analysis is local inference, i.e. the continuous statistical testing of a null hypothesis along the domain. The principal issue in this topic is the infinite amount of tested hypotheses, which can be seen as an extreme case of the multiple comparisons problem. In this paper, we define and discuss the notion of FDR in a very general functional data setting. Moreover, a continuous version of the Benjamini–Hochberg procedure is introduced along with a definition of adjusted p value function. Some general conditions are stated, under which the functional Benjamini–Hochberg procedure provides control of the functional FDR. Two different simulation studies are presented; the first study has a one-dimensional domain and a comparison with another state-of-the-art method, and the second study has a planar two-dimensional domain. Finally, the proposed method is applied to satellite measurements of Earth temperature. In detail, we aim at identifying the regions of the planet where temperature has significantly increased in the last decades. After adjustment, large areas are still significant

    Emphysemastix frampt Olsen & Enghoff sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: CBF0C445-4D5A-48D1-83EA-C509E0567476 Figs 2, 15B, 16–17 Diagnosis Differs from the other species of the genus by having a rounded, rather than triangular paxillus. Nodal processes M and L both present. Etymology The species is named after Kingseeker Frampt from the Dark Souls video game series, due to the gonopods’ resemblance to the creature. The name is to be treated as a noun in apposition. Material examined Holotype TANZANIA • ♂; Iringa Region, Mahenge District, West Kilombero Scarp FR, Nyumbanitu Mts, S of? Udekwa Village; 07°48′ S, 36°21′ E; 1700 m a.s.l.; Dec. 1993; L.A. Hansen and J.O. Svendsen leg.; NHMD 621677. Description Male SIZE AND SHAPE. A large member of the genus, rather wide compared to length. Body length ca 55 mm. Maximum width 13.1 mm. W/L ratio ca 24%. COLOUR (Fig. 16). Metazona orange-brown, with lighter colour on posterior part and on paranota; legs darker and more intensely/vividly orange. Prozona as metazona but without lighter areas. BODY RINGS. Paranota set high on sides, dorsum moderately convex. Anterior edge of ring 2–4 straight, anterior edge of rings 5–20 with gradually larger posterior-facing edge. Torus present, but small and indistinct. Stricture poorly defined, but with sharp edge in front of anterior spiracles. Pleurosternal carinae present, knobby, distinct from ring 3, increasing in size towards ring 8–9, afterwards decreasing in size towards posterior end, indistinct on ring 18. Transverse sternal carinae as typical of the genus, but very small on anterior of ring 9. Anterior edge of paxillus rounded, with ridges. LEGS. Relatively long (Fig. 16). HYPOPROCT. Paramediean tubercles small, not extended past edge of sclerite. Median projection large and elongated. GONOPOD (Figs 15B, 17). Gonocoxa with some paracannular setae, row of setae continuing on anterior side of distal end of gonocoxa. Prefemoral part with rounded ventral lobe. Telopodite endonodal. Nodal processes M and L similar in size; process L slightly curved mesad; process M slightly longer, distal end curved mesad. Postnodal telopodite relatively long, curved ventrad almost perpendicular to setose prefemoral region and directed first slightly mesad, then dorsad and expanding into subglobose, hollow enlargement, then curving mesad and forming a half-circle for the rest of its length. Subterminal process narrow and curved ventrad, solenomere curved dorsad, then ventrad. Distribution Known only from the type locality in the Nyambanitu Mts, West Kilombero FR (Fig. 2). Remarks The gonopods of E. frampt sp. nov. are particularly similar to those of E. flavosignatus (compare Fig. 17 with Hoffman 2005: fig. 206). Processes M and L in E. frampt sp. nov. are, however, longer and more curved, and the nodus is larger, with more divergent sides in E. frampt sp. nov.Published as part of Olsen, Sissel Anna, Rosenmejer, Trine & Enghoff, Henrik, 2020, A mountain of millipedes IX: Species of the family Gomphodesmidae from the Udzungwa Mountains, Tanzania (Diplopoda, Polydesmida), pp. 1-35 in European Journal of Taxonomy 675 on pages 22-25, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2020.675, http://zenodo.org/record/392832
