Counting distinct (non-)crossing substrings
Let $w$ be a string of length $n$. The problem of counting factors crossing a position - Problem 64 from the textbook ``125 Problems in Text Algorithms'' [Crochemore, Leqroc, and Rytter, 2021], asks to count the number $\mathcal{C}(w,k)$ (resp. $\mathcal{N}(w,k)$) of distinct substrings in $w$ that have occurrences containing (resp. not containing) a position $k$ in $w$. The solutions provided in their textbook compute $\mathcal{C}(w,k)$ and $\mathcal{N}(w,k)$ in $O(n)$ time for a single positi…

Unveiling the Complex Jet Dynamics in the Blazar 2021+317 through Multi-Epoch VLBI Observations
We present an investigation of the compact structure of the AGN 2021+317 based on multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations at 15, 22, and 43 GHz in the period from 2013 through 2024. The VLBI images show a core-jet structure extended to the south, with two stationary components in the northern region, one of which likely to be the core of the source. We also detected two new moving jet components (S4 and S5) in the observations of 2021. Based on these observational find…

Just for the record: In Berufen mit hoher Belastung lebt man drei Jahre kürzer, mit prekären Einkommen sinkt die Lebenserwartung deutlich. Konkret leben Ärmere fünf Jahre (!) kürzer. Das bedeutet, dass viele lange in die Rentenkasse einzahlen und unter Strich nichts davon haben. Nicht nur, weil es eine Rente ist, von der sie nicht leben können, sondern weil sie früher sterben - und damit für besserverdienende Menschen zahlen, die weniger Belastungen ausgesetzt waren.
