Three Cases Against IF NOT EXISTS / IF EXISTS in Postgres DDL | Postgres AI

What is this about?

Many DDL statements in PostgreSQL support modified IF EXISTS / IF NOT EXISTS. For example:

 test=# create table if not exists mytable(); CREATE TABLE test=# drop table if exists mytable; DROP TABLE 

I recommend using `IF EXISTS` / `IF NOT EXISTS`…

Good Morning #Canada
Conservationists who focus on restoration of wetlands are increasingly "Leaving It To Beaver." Beavers are considered the ultimate Keystone Species because they area they re-engineer offer benefits to many other species, and an entire ecosystem can collapse if a Beaver is removed. A Beaver dam doesn't just hold and conserve water. Beavers increase the population of frogs, fish, insects, birds, and small mammals and extend the range of larger mammals like moose, deer, and bears. The quantity and variety of vegetation are increased. Water is filtered and saturates the land, refilling artesian wells. It's unbelievable that we almost lost this amazing creature because of a hat fashion trend.

Benchmarking GPT-5 in Radiation Oncology: Measurable Gains, but Persistent Need for Expert Oversight
Introduction: Large language models (LLM) have shown great potential in clinical decision support. GPT-5 is a novel LLM system that has been specifically marketed towards oncology use. Methods: Performance was assessed using two complementary benchmarks: (i) the ACR Radiation Oncology In-Training Examination (TXIT, 2021), comprising 300 multiple-choice items, and (ii) a curated set of 60 authentic radiation oncologic vignettes representing diverse disease sites and treatment indications.

Proof of the linkage conjecture for highly connected tournaments
A digraph $D$ is $k$-linked if for every $2k$ distinct vertices $ x_1,\ldots , x_k, y_1, \ldots , y_k$ in $D$, there exist $k$ pairwise vertex-disjoint paths $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ such that $P_i$ starts at $x_i$ and ends at $y_i$ for each $i\in [k]$. In 2021, Girão, Popielarz, and Snyder [Combinatorica 41 (2021) 815--837] conjectured that there exists a constant $C >0$ such that every $(2k+1)$-connected tournament with minimum out-degree at least $Ck$ is $k$-linked. In this paper, we disprove this…

Using a sample of (2.712 $\pm$ 0.014)$\times 10^{9}$ $\psip$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider in 2009, 2012, and 2021, the decay $\psip \to ωηη$ is observed for the first time. The branching fraction of the $ψ(3686)\toωηη$ decay is measured to be (1.65 $\pm$ 0.02 $\pm$ 0.21)$\times 10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.

The Algonauts 2025 Challenge just wrapped up a few weeks ago. It is a biennial challenge in computational neuroscience in which teams attempt to build models that predict human brain activity from carefully curated stimuli. Previous editions (2019, 2021, 2023) focused on still images and short videos; the 2025 edition, which concluded last month (late July), pushed the field further by using long, multimodal movies. Teams were tasked with predicting fMRI responses across 1,000 whole-brain parce…

Rota-Baxter operators on compact simple Lie groups and algebras

Rota-Baxter operators on compact simple Lie groups and algebras
A Rota-Baxter operator on a Lie group $ G $ is a smooth map $ B : G \to G $ such that $ B(g)B(h) = B(gB(g)hB(g)^{-1}) $ for all $ g, h \in G $. This concept was introduced in 2021 by Guo, Lang and Sheng as a Lie group analogue of Rota-Baxter operators of weight 1 on Lie algebras. We show that the only Rota-Baxter operators on compact simple Lie groups are the trivial map and the inverse map. A similar description for Rota-Baxter operators of weight 1 on compact simple Lie algebras is provided.

Hamilton Cycles In Vertex-Transitive Graphs of Order 10p
After a long term efforts, the Hamiltonian problem of connected vertex-transitive graphs of order $pq$ (where $p$ and $q$ are primes) was finally finshed in 2021, see [10]. Fifteen years ago, mathematicians began to challenge this problem for graphs of order $2pq$. Among of them, it was proved in 2012 (see [21]) that every connected vertex-transitive graph of order $10p$ (where $p\neq7$ is a prime) contains a Hamilton path, with the exception of a family of graphs which was recently confirmed i…

To buy or not to buy: deterministic rent-or-buy problems on node-weighted graphs
We study the rent-or-buy variant of the online Steiner forest problem on node- and edge-weighted graphs. For $n$-node graphs with at most $\bar{n}$ non-zero node-weights, and at most $\tilde{k}$ different arriving terminal pairs, we obtain a deterministic, $O(\log n \log \bar{n})$-competitive algorithm. This improves on the previous best, $O(\log^4 n)$-competitive algorithm obtained by the black-box reduction from (Bartal et al. 2021) combined with the previously best deterministic algorithms f…

The Perturbation Theory Approach to Stability in the Scattered Disk
Scattered disk objects (SDOs) are distant minor bodies that orbit the sun on highly eccentric orbits, frequently with perhelia near Neptune's orbit. Gravitational perturbations due to Neptune frequently lead to chaotic dynamics, with the degree of chaotic diffusion set by an object's perihelion distance. Batygin et al. (2021) developed a perturbative approach for scattered disk dynamics, finding that, to leading order in semi-major axis ratio, an infinite series of $2:j$ resonances drives the d…

Ammonia, Methane, Hydrogen and Methanol Produced in Remote Renewable Energy Hubs: a Comparative Quantitative Analysis
Remote renewable energy hubs (RREHs) for synthetic fuel production are engineering systems harvesting renewable energy where it is particularly abundant. They produce transportable synthetic fuels for export to distant load centers. This article aims to evaluate the production costs of different energy carriers, and includes a discussion on advantages and disadvantages in terms of technical performance. To do so, we extend the study of Berger et al., (2021) which focuses on methane (CH4) as ene…
