THE STRUCTURE OF GRAPHS ON \(n\) VERTICES WITH THE DEGREE SUM OF ANY TWO NONADJACENT VERTICES EQUAL TO \(n-2\) by Do Nhu An

“…We show that, for \(n\geq3\) is an odd number then \(\alpha(G)=2\) and \(G\) is a disconnected graph; for \(n\geq4\) is an even number then \(2\leq\alpha(G)\leq(n+2)/2\), where if \(\alpha(G)=2\) then \(G\) is a disconnected graph, otherwise \(G\) is a connected graph, \(G\) contains  \(k\) total vertices and \(n-k\) vertices of degree \(\delta=(n-2)/2\), where \(0\leq k\leq(n-2)/2\). …”

The Bergen Facebook addiction scale: a reliability generalization meta-analysis by Jian-Ling Ma, ZhengCheng Jin, Chang Liu

“…We performed a reliability generalization meta-analysis involving 173,641 participants across 127 articles, which reported 147 Cronbach’s alpha values for internal consistency. The random-effects model revealed that the pooled Cronbach’s alpha values were 0.8535 (95% CI [0.8409, 0.8660]) for the BFAS and 0.8248 (95% CI [0.8116, 0.8380]) for the BSMAS. …”

Troop Takeover and Reproductive Success of Wild Male Japanese Macaques on Yakushima Island (Macaca fuscata yakui) by Sachiko Hayakawa, Joseph Soltis

“…Troop takeovers occurred only in the mating season; nontroop males (NTMs) did not cooperate with each other; former alpha males were rarely expelled from the troop; new alpha males did not commit infanticide; new alpha male tenure in the group was usually less than two years. …”

Some estimates of multilinear operators on tent spaces by Heng Yang, Jiang Zhou

“…Let $ 0 < \alpha < mn $ and $ 0 < r, q < \infty $. In this paper, we obtain the boundedness of some multilinear operators by establishing pointwise inequalities and applying extrapolation methods on tent spaces $ T_{r}^{q}(\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n+1}) $, where these multilinear operators include multilinear Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator $ \mathcal{M} $, multilinear fractional maximal operator $ \mathcal{M}_{\alpha} $, multilinear Calderón–Zygmund operator $ \mathcal{T} $, and multilinear fractional integral operator $ \mathcal{I}_{\alpha} $. …”

Subliminal visual stimulation produces behavioural oscillations in multiple frequencies in a visual integration task by Michelle Johannknecht, Alfons Schnitzler, Joachim Lange

“…These fluctuations were found in the range of theta, alpha and beta oscillations. Our results further support the idea, that alpha oscillations are a functional rhythm for visual perception, leading to rhythmic fluctuations of perception and behaviour. …”
