Three-dimensional non-relativistic Hietarinta supergravity by Patrick Concha, Evelyn Rodríguez, Sebastián Salgado

“…Abstract In this work we present the non-relativistic regime of the Hietarinta gravity theory and its extension to supergravity. At the bosonic level, we derive the non-relativistic version of the Hietarinta model by employing a contraction process and addressing the non-degeneracy of the invariant metric. …”

The persuasive function of the blood of Jesus in Matthew 26:28 by M.J. Nel

“…It is argued that the shift towards allusions and echoes when explaining Jesus’ death aligns with Matthew’s strategy that can be described as a kaleidoscopic atonement theory, in which he weaves various Old Testament themes together to construct a comprehensive theory of atonement in Matthew 20:28 and 26:28. …”

Refinement of a Previous Hypothesis of the Lyapunov Analysis of Isotropic Turbulence by Nicola de Divitiis

“…There, the analytical expression of the structure function of the longitudinal velocity difference Δur is derived through a statistical analysis of the Fourier transformed Navier-Stokes equations and by means of considerations regarding the scales of the velocity fluctuations, which arise from the Kolmogorov theory. Due to these latter considerations, this Lyapunov analysis seems to need some of the results of the Kolmogorov theory. …”
