(2020-07)
Longitudinal CA125 algorithms are the current basis of ovarian cancer screening. We report on longitudinal algorithms incorporating multiple markers. In the multimodal arm of United Kingdom Collaborative Trial of Ovarian ...
Nested algebraic Bethe ansatz for deformed orthogonal and symplectic spin chains
(2020-07)
We construct exact eigenvectors and eigenvalues for Uq(sp2n)- and Uq(so2n)-symmetric closed spin chains by means of a nested algebraic Bethe ansatz method. We use a fusion procedure to construct higher-dimensional Lax ...
