As health equity researchers, we need to produce research that is useful, policy-relevant, able to be understood and applied, and uses integrated knowledge translation (KT) approaches. The Manitoba Centre for Health Policy ...

Rationale: Although phosphatic materials are chemically complex and are prone to exchange oxygen isotopes with their environments, the phosphate (PO43-) component of these materials is robust and retains its original oxygen ...

It is a well-known fact that a graph of diameter d has at least d + 1 eigenvalues. A graph is d-extremal, if it has diameter d and exactly d+1 eigenvalues. A graph is split if its vertex set can be partitioned into a ...

We consider the Karpelevic region \Theta_n in the complex plane consisting of all eigenvalues of all stochastic matrices of order n. We provide an alternative characterisation of \Theta_n that sharpens the original description ...

In light of recent interest in Hadamard diagonalisable graphs (graphs whose Laplacian matrix is diagonalisable by a Hadamard matrix), we generalise this notion from real to complex Hadamard matrices.We give some basic ...
