A primer on quasi-convex functions in nonlinear potential theories
We present a self-contained treatment of the fundamental role that quasi-convex functions play in general (nonlinear second order) potential theories, which concerns the study of generalized subharmonics associated to a suitable closed subset (subequations) of the space of 2-jets. Quasi-convex functions build a bridge between classical and viscosity notions of solutions of the natural Dirichlet problem in any potential theory. Moreover, following a program initiated by Harvey and Lawson in [arX…

Steelers' New Wide Receiver Trade Option Emerging From The Dallas Cowboys https://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/steelers_new_wide_receiver_trade_option_emerging_from_the_dallas_cowboys/s1_17101_4026…

Steelers' New Wide Receiver Trade Option Emerging From The Dallas Cowboys
The Pittsburgh Steelers made a bold move by trading away their star wide receiver, Diontae Johnson, earlier this offseason. Following this decision, many anticipated that Omar Khan and the Steelers would either secure a trade, or acquire a reputable wide receiver. However, as the 2024 NFL Draft approaches, and with no significant developments on the horizon, it appears that the Steelers may be inclined to seek out a plug-and-play wide receiver during the draft. This approach carries substantial…

Predicting Thrombectomy Recanalization from CT Imaging Using Deep Learning Models
For acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusions, clinicians must decide if the benefit of mechanical thrombectomy (MTB) outweighs the risks and potential complications following an invasive procedure. Pre-treatment computed tomography (CT) and angiography (CTA) are widely used to characterize occlusions in the brain vasculature. If a patient is deemed eligible, a modified treatment in cerebral ischemia (mTICI) score will be used to grade how well blood flow is reestablishe…

Dynamics of Global Emission Permit Prices and Regional Social Cost of Carbon under Noncooperation
We build a dynamic multi-region model of climate and economy with emission permit trading among 12 aggregated regions in the world. We solve for the dynamic Nash equilibrium under noncooperation, wherein each region adheres to the emission cap constraints following commitments that were first outlined in the 2015 Paris Agreement and updated in subsequent years. Our model shows that the emission permit price reaches $811 per ton of carbon by 2050. We demonstrate that a regional carbon tax is com…
