    • Epidemiology and classification of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms using current coding criteria 

      Sandvik, Oddvar Mathias; Søreide, Kjetil; Gudlaugsson, Einar; Kvaløy, Jan Terje; Søreide, Jon Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-09)
      Background: The lack of uniform criteria for coding of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia (GEP-NEN) has hampered previous epidemiological studies. The epidemiology of GEP-NEN was investigated in this study ...
    • Leptogenesis in crossing and runaway regimes. 

      Hohenegger, Andreas; Kartavtsev, Alexander (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-07)
      We study the impact of effective thermal masses and widths on resonant leptogenesis. We identify two distinct possibilities which we refer to as ‘crossing’ and ‘runaway’ regimes. In the runaway regime the mass difference ...
    • Basis invariant measure of CP-violation and renormalization. 

      Hohenegger, Andreas; Kartavtsev, Alexander (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-08)
      We analyze, in the context of a simple toy model, for which renormalization schemes the CP-properties of bare Lagrangian and its finite part coincide. We show that this is the case for the minimal subtraction and on-shell ...
    • Type III and II universal spacetimes 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Pravdova, Alena; Pravda, Vojtech (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      We briefly summarize our recent results on universal spacetimes. We show that universal spacetimes are necessarily CSI, i.e. for these spacetimes, all curvature invariants constructed from the Riemann tensor and its ...
    • Type N universal spacetimes 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Pravda, V; Pravdova, A (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Universal spacetimes are vacuum solutions to all theories of gravity with the Lagrangian L [...]. Well known examples of universal spacetimes are plane waves which are of the Weyl type N. Here, we discuss recent results ...
    • Downregulation of N-terminal acetylation triggers ABA-mediated drought responses in Arabidopsis 

      Linster, Eric; Stephan, Iwona; Bienvenut, Willy V.; Maple-Grødem, Jodi; Myklebust, Line Merethe; Huber, Monika; Reichelt, Michael; Sticht, Carsten; Møller, Simon Geir; Meinnel, Thierry; Arnesen, Thomas; Giglione, Carmela; Hell, Rüdiger; Wirtz, Markus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-07)
      N-terminal acetylation (NTA) catalysed by N-terminal acetyltransferases (Nats) is among the most common protein modifications in eukaryotes, but its significance is still enigmatic. Here we characterize the plant NatA ...
    • Covariate order tests for covariate effect 

      Kvaløy, Jan Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2002)
      A new approach for constructing tests for association between a random right censored life time variable and a covariate is proposed. The basic idea is to first arrange the observations in increasing order of the covariate ...
    • Semi-algebraic optimization of temperature compensation in a general switch-type negative feedback model of circadian clocks 

      Aase, Sven Ole; Ruoff, Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)
      Temperature compensation is an essential property of circadian oscillators which enables them to act as physiological clocks. We have analyzed the temperature compensating behavior of a generalized transcriptional–translational ...
    • Tuning the thermoresponsive properties of Hyperbranched Poly(ester amide)s based on diisopropanolamine and cyclic dicarboxylic anhydrides 

      Kelland, Malcolm (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-08)
      A range of water-soluble hyperbranched poly(ester amide)s has been synthesized with a view to studying their thermoresponsive behavior in water. Poly(ester amide)s with lower critical solution temperature (LCST) values ...
    • Note on the invariant classification of vacuum type D spacetimes 

      Coley, Alan; Hervik, Sigbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-12)
      We illustrate the fact that the class of vacuum type D spacetimes which are I-non-degenerate are invariantly classified by their scalar polynomial curvature invariants.
    • On the algebraic classification of pseudo-Riemannian spaces 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Coley, Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-12)
      We consider arbitrary-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian spaces of signature (k, k + m). We introduce a boost-weight decomposition and define a number of algebraic properties (e.g. the Si- and N-properties) and present a ...
    • Inflation with stable anisotropic hair 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Mota, David F.; Thorsrud, Mikjel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Recently an inflationary model with a vector field coupled to the inflaton was proposed and the phenomenology studied for the Bianchi type I spacetime. It was found that the model demonstrates a counter-example to the ...
    • Ricci nilsoliton black holes 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)
      We follow a constructive approach and find higher-dimensional black holes with Ricci nilsoliton horizons. The spacetimes are solutions to the Einstein equation with a negative cosmological constant and generalise therefore, ...
    • Discriminating the Weyl type in higher dimensions using scalar curvature invariants 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Coley, Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      We consider higher dimensional Lorentzian spacetimes which are currently of interest in theoretical physics. It is possible to algebraically classify any tensor in a Lorentzian spacetime of arbitrary dimensions using ...
    • Curvature operators and scalar curvature invariants 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Coley, Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      We continue the study of the question of when a pseudo-Riemannain manifold can be locally characterised by its scalar polynomial curvature invariants (constructed from the Riemann tensor and its covariant deriva- tives). ...
    • Higher dimensional bivectors and classification of the Weyl operator 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Coley, Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      We develop the bivector formalism in higher dimensional Lorentzian spacetimes. We define the Weyl bivector operator in a manner consis- tent with its boost-weight decomposition. We then algebraically classify the Weyl ...
    • Pseudo-Riemannian VSI spaces 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Coley, Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      In this paper we consider pseudo-Riemannian spaces of arbitrary sig- nature for which all of their polynomial curvature invariants vanish (VSI spaces). We discuss an algebraic classification of pseudo-Riemannian spaces ...
    • All metrics have curvature tensors characterised by its invariants as a limit: the ϵ-property 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      We prove a generalisation of the ϵ-property, namely that for any dimension and signature, a metric which is not characterised by its polynomial scalar curvature invariants, there is a frame such that the components of the ...
    • A spacetime not characterized by its invariants is of aligned type II 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      By using invariant theory we show that a (higher-dimensional) Lorentzian metric that is not characterised by its invariants must be of aligned type II; i.e., there exists a frame such that all the curvature tensors ...

      Hervik, Sigbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      In this paper we consider pseudo-Riemannian spaces of arbitrary signature for which all of the polynomial curvature invariants vanish (VSI spaces). Using an algebraic classification of pseudo-Riemannian spaces in terms of ...
