Asymptotic estimates for entire functions of minimal growth with given zeros by P. V. Filevych

“…It is proved that there exists an entire function $f\in\mathcal{E}_\zeta$ such that $$ \varlimsup_{r\to+\infty}\frac{\ln\ln M_f(r)}{\Phi(\ln r)}\le\varlimsup_{r\to+\infty}\frac{\ln n_\zeta( r)}{\Phi(\ln r)}, $$ where $M_f(r)$ denotes the maximum modulus of the function $f$, and it is shown that the above inequality implies the inequality $$ \varlimsup_{r\to+\infty}\frac{\ln\ln M_f(r)}{\Phi(\ln r)}\le\varlimsup_{r\to+\infty}\frac{\ln N_\zeta( r)}{\Phi(\ln r)}+\varlimsup_{\sigma\to+\infty}\frac{\ln\Phi'_+(\sigma)}{\Phi(\sigma)}. $$ The formulated result is a consequence of the following more general statement: if the right-hand derivative $\Phi'_+$ of the function $\Phi$ assumes only integer values and $\sum_{n=1}^\infty e^{-\Phi(\ln|\zeta_n|)}<+\infty$, then there exists an entire function $f\in\mathcal{E}_\zeta$ such that $\ln M_f(r)=o(e^{\Phi(\ln r)})$ as $r \to+\infty$.…”

Working Memory as the Focus of the Bilingual Effect in Executive Functions by Jiejia Chen, Zitong Li, Zhiheng Xiong, Guangyuan Liu

“…This raises two important questions: (a) Is the bilingual effect specific to certain modalities (modality-specific), or a more general phenomenon (modality-general)? (b) Is the bilingual effect concentrated in a specific component of executive functions (process-specific), or does it extend to all three components (process-general)? …”

Linking Functional Traits To Trophic Roles In Scavenger Assemblages by Violeta Marie Montenegro, Patricia Mateo‐Tomás, Jessica Schneider, Daisy H. Dent, Tom Crowther, Carolina Bello

“…In contrast, the red kite (Milvus milvus) in the northern site had the lowest centrality, and the Egyptian vulture (Neophron percnopterus) was among the most peripheral species for all three networks. In general, scavengers with large home ranges and nocturnal or crepuscular activity patterns tended to have more central roles, whereas species that forage silently tended to have more peripheral roles. …”

Almost Automorphic Functions on the Quantum Time Scale and Applications by Yongkun Li

“…Then, we introduce a transformation between functions defined on the quantum time scale and functions defined on the set of generalized integer numbers; by using this transformation we give equivalent definitions of almost automorphic functions on the quantum time scale; following the idea of the transformation, we also give a concept of almost automorphic functions on more general time scales that can unify the concepts of almost automorphic functions on almost periodic time scales and on the quantum time scale. …”

Diagnosis and treatment of depression according to the functional recovery paradigm by G. M. Usov

“…The prevailing priority in the 1960s to 1980s of relieving current depressive symptoms and ending the current episode – shifted to achieving remission in the early 1990s and functional recovery in the mid-2010s. The general recognition of a new approach to the treatment of depression is reflected in the inclusion of functional disorder in the ICD-11 diagnostic criteria for a depressive episode. …”
