Comparison of Topologies on Fundamental Groups with Subgroup Topology Viewpoint
In order to make the fundamental group, one of the most well known invariants in algebraic topology, more useful and powerful some researchers have been introduced and studied various topologies on the fundamental group from the beginning of the 21st century onwards. In this paper by reviewing these topologies, using the concept of subgroup topology, we are going to compare these topologies in order to present some results on topologized fundamental groups.

Radio Frequency Identification: Decades at a Time
In this article, we briefly review the history of the use of radio signals to identify objects, and of the key Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) standards for ultra-high-frequency (UHF) and near-field communications that enabled broad use of these technologies in daily life. We will compare the vision for the future presented by the Auto-ID Lab in the early 21st century with the reality we see today, two decades and a little after. We will review some of the applications in which UHF RFID t…

"Nothing more illustrates the irrelevance of the UN in the 21st century than the issue of climate change.  It is the UN-sponsored International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that collects and presents the science on global warming and predictions for the future of the planet and humanity.  The IPCC delivers ever more stark warnings about the damage from global warming.... national governments ignore or reject even the most mild targets for global action."

Extreme climate events, e.g., droughts, floods, heat waves, and freezes, are becoming more frequent and intense with severe global socio-economic impacts. Growing populations and economic activity leads to increased exposure to these events. Scaling existing physical, financial, and social infrastructure to provide resilience against these extreme events is daunting, especially as one ponders projected climate changes. Climate extremes pose a challenge even if decarbonization and geoengineering…

Slow Horses is a popular series on AppleTV lately. I highly recommend reading the books it’s based on, starting with the novel by that name, by Mick Herron. Think the George Smiley tales of British Cold War MI5, only seedier, and updated to the 21st century. Grimier, with more infighting and backstabbing. These spies are all fuck-ups who hope to get back in good graces with the real ones, but won’t. 7 novels, 3 novellas; all page-turners. Big recommend.

Limited impact of Greenland meltwater on abruptness and reversibility of future Atlantic overturning changes
All climate models project that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) will weaken in the 21st century, but most models neglect increasing runoff from the Greenland ice sheet. Greenland meltwater is expected to exacerbate AMOC weakening, and omitting it increases the uncertainty in assessing the possibility of a future abrupt collapse or tipping of the AMOC. Here, we test the abruptness and reversibility of AMOC changes under strong future global warming in a state-of-the-art cl…
