International legal conventions as an instrument for preventing environmental risks by E. I. Mayorova

“…Nature continues to be considered as the basis of the economy, and participation in international agreements means restrictions on certain economic activities, therefore, a number of countries do not ratify international environmental conventions for economic reasons, neglecting environmental consequences. Another reason for the refusal of ratification is the desire to hide from the public information about the deterioration of the environment, which is a violation of the interests of civil society and a risk to human health.…”

REVIEW ON DORMANCY, CAUSES, USES, AND MEASURES OF OVERCOMING IT by Prakash Awasthi

“…The majority of both human and animal diets are made up mostly of seed, which is also the foundation and the first input used in the transmission of genetic features in crop development. Seed dormancy, a physiological phenomenon in plants that can be brought on by internal or external stimuli, prevents seeds from sprouting even under ideal circumstances. …”

An Improvement of the Lower Bound on the Maximum Number of Halving Lines for Sets in the Plane with an Odd Number of Points by Javier Rodrigo, Mariló López, Danilo Magistrali, Estrella Alonso

“…In this paper, we give examples that improve the lower bound on the maximum number of halving lines for sets in the plane with 35, 59, 95, and 97 points and, as a consequence, we improve the current best upper bound of the rectilinear crossing number for sets in the plane with 35, 59, 95, and 97 points, provided that a conjecture included in the literature is true. As another consequence, we also improve the lower bound on the maximum number of halving pseudolines for sets in the plane with 35 points. …”

A Cutting Plane and Level Stabilization Bundle Method with Inexact Data for Minimizing Nonsmooth Nonconvex Functions by Jie Shen, Dan Li, Li-Ping Pang

“…Compared with other proximal bundle methods, the new variant updates the lower bound of the optimal value, providing an additional useful stopping test based on the optimality gap. Another merit is that our algorithm makes a distinction between affine pieces that exhibit a convex or a concave behavior relative to the current iterate. …”
