Martin-Löf Complexes
No full textIn this paper we define Martin-L¨of complexes to be algebras for
monads on the category of (reflexive) globular sets which freely add cells in
accordance with the rules of intensional Martin-L¨of type theory. We then
study the resulting categories of algebras for several theories. Our principal
result is that there exists a cofibrantly generated Quillen model structure on
the category of 1-truncated Martin-L¨of complexes and that this category is
Quillen equivalent to the category of groupoids. In particular, 1-truncated
Martin-L¨of complexes are a model of homotopy 1-types. In order to establish
these facts we give a proof-theoretic analysis, using a modified version of Tait’s
logical predicates argument, of the propositional equality classes of terms of
identity type in the 1-truncated theory

He was the son of prominent Presbyterian missionary George W. Martin and Matilda Peebles Work Martin. His early education was at the Presbyterian mission school in Manti (1891-1900) and the public school in Manti (1900-1901). In 1901, Theodore entered the Salt Lake Collegiate Institute, graduating in 1905. He attended summer school at the University of Utah in 1905 and 1906, and began teaching elementary school in rural Utah in 1906. He later earned his B.A. degree from Hamilton College, in Clinton, N.Y. in 1912, where he was nicknamed "Ted" and "Mormon" Martin; he was a debater and member of Phi Beta Kappa. He attended the Union Theological Seminary (1912-1915) graduating in 1915, and earned his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1931. Martin worked as a teacher and social worker in New York State and served two years in the military in France during World War I.; In 1919, Martin returned to Utah teaching in Richfield High School, later serving as its principal and president of the Sevier District Teachers Association, 1920-1922. In 1925 he served as the first executive secretary of the Utah Education Association. Martin left the following year and joined the National Education Association, Washington, D.C., serving as director of the Department of Records and Membership from 1925-1950.

Heritability and Linkage Analysis of Appendicitis Utilizing Age at Onset
No full textAppendicitis usually afflicts the young, but there is a large tail in the distribution of onset age. The genetics of this disease are still not well understood. A heritability analysis and genome wide linkage analysis of a large twin dataset was undertaken. Treating age of onset of appendicitis as a censored survival trait revealed a heritability of 0.21, and found evidence of linkage to Chromosome 1p37.3.

Rare Recurrence of Esophageal Cancer as Bone Marrow Carcinomatosis Leading to Bone Marrow Failure and DIC
No full textIntroduction: Esophageal cancer portends a poor prognosis due to high risk of recurrence, even following treatment with curative intent. Recurrence often occurs as distant metastasis, commonly in liver, lung, bone and brain with bone marrow metastasis being infrequently cited in medical literature. Herein we describe a case of bone marrow metastasis of an esophageal primary following resection.Case presentation: A 78 year-old male with locally advanced GEJ cancer who underwent chemotherapy followed by surgical resection with complete pathological response presented 6 weeks later with right lower quadrant pain. He was found to have hemorrhage in right perinephric space secondary to a ruptured kidney cyst with labs suggestive of DIC and hemolytic anemia. Patient was transfused multiple units of FFP, cryoprecipitate, and blood and ultimately required coil embolization of the right renal artery. The patient was discharged home after prolonged hospital course, and was found to have persistent pancytopenia with hypofibrinoginemia. Bone marrow aspirate and biopsy were performed, which revealed a necrotic marrow replaced with signet ring adenocarcinoma consistent with his esophageal primary. Patient requested hospice care and died six weeks later. Conclusion: Recurrence of esophageal cancer is common and can occur locoregionally or as distant metastasis, however bone marrow as a site of metastatic spread occurs infrequently. Esophageal cancer recurs typically within two years of resection, therefore follow up and surveillance is a vital component of management, keeping in mind that bone marrow is a possible though atypical site of recurrence
The natural history of a successful, young, small, high technology company
No full textThis paper reports the natural history of a successful, young, small, high-technology company in Perth, Western Australia. This case study is part of an ongoing larger survey concerning the success factors for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in this sector of industry both in Australia and the UK. A detailed natural history of the company is presented in the context of existing models for success in the literature. Conclusions are drawn as to the fit of such models in this case, and as to how such models might be employed during the process of organising
Velocity-Gradient Probability Distribution Functions in a Lagrangian Model of Turbulence
No full textThe Recent Fluid Deformation Closure (RFDC) model of lagrangian turbulence is recast in path-integral language within the framework of the Martin-Siggia-Rose functional formalism. In order to derive analytical expressions for the velocity-gradient probability distribution functions (vgPDFs), we carry out noise renormalization in the low-frequency regime and find approximate extrema for the Martin-Siggia-Rose effective action. We verify, with the help of Monte Carlo simulations, that the vgPDFs so obtained yield a close description of the single-point statistical features implied by the original RFDC stochastic differential equations
Wealth reallocation and sustainability under climate change
No full textClimate change is often described as the greatest environmental challenge of our time. In addition, a changing climate can reallocate natural capital, change the value of all forms of capital and lead to mass redistribution of wealth. Here we explain how the inclusive wealth framework provides a means to measure shifts in the amounts and distribution of wealth induced by climate change. Biophysical effects on prices, pre-existing institutions and socio-ecological changes related to shifts in climate cause wealth to change in ways not correlated with biophysical changes. This implies that sustainable development in the face of climate change requires a coherent approach that integrates biophysical and social measurement. Inclusive wealth provides a measure that indicates sustainability and has the added benefit of providing an organizational framework for integrating the multiple disciplines studying global change.Peer reviewe
