Binary fuzzy linear programming problems: a new solution by Malihe Niksirat, Majid Abdolrazzagh-Nezhad

“…In each node of the branch-and-bound tree, the linear relaxation of the fuzzy problem is solved with a new fuzzy simplex method based on Kerre's adapted method.Findings: Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the proposed method step by step, and the results are compared with those of other approaches that solve fuzzy binary integer programming problems.Originality/Value: Unlike the available defuzzification procedures and fuzzy ranking functions in the research problem literature, the proposed approach considers the assumption of being fuzzy in the solution process and thus offers a more realistic solution.…”

Subtraction of the t t ¯ $$ t\overline{t} $$ contribution in tW b ¯ $$ tW\overline{b} $$ production at the one-loop level by Liang Dong, Hai Tao Li, Zheng-Yu Li, Jian Wang

“…The subtraction of the t t ¯ $$ t\overline{t} $$ contributions has been performed in the diagram removal or diagram subtraction schemes for the tree-level processes. However, these schemes rely on the ability to identify the double resonant diagrams and thus can not be extended to loop diagrams. …”

Molecular Markers for the Phylogenetic Reconstruction of <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i>: A Quantitative Review by David Ramírez-Delgado, Carlos Alberto Flores-López

“…Although the mini-exon gene is by far the locus that has been most widely used, it is not the most appropriate marker for the typification of <i>T. cruzi</i> based on the construction of a resolved phylogenetic tree. Overall, the mitochondrial COII-NDI locus stands out as the best molecular marker for this purpose, followed by the Cytochrome b and the Lathosterol oxidase genes.…”
