Higher Gaussian maps on the hyperelliptic locus and second fundamental form
In this paper we study higher even Gaussian maps of the canonical bundle on hyperelliptic curves and we determine their rank, giving explicit descriptions of their kernels. Then we use this descriptions to investigate the hyperelliptic Torelli map $j_h$ and its second fundamental form. We study isotropic subspaces of the tangent space $T_{{\mathcal H}_g, [C]}$ to the moduli space ${\mathcal H}_g$ of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ at a point $[C]$, with respect to the second fundamental form …

Für Olympia! Hamburg plant gigantische Hyperloop-Strecke (M+)
Noch klingt es mehr nach Science-Fiction als nach einem tatsächlichen Szenario: Hamburg plant an einer Teststrecke für Hyperloop-Technologie. Dabei

So on a whim, decided to check out a new DE. Came across hyprland tiling DE. I am liking the keyboard shorts. Kept accidentally bumping Super M so that was a quick change. Fun to setup so far, it looks very customizable. #linux #hyprland

«Und tatsächlich ist die Zunahme von Bergstürzen im Hochgebirge eindeutig. Zwischen 1900 und 1980 wurden vier gezählt, es ereignete sich also alle zwanzig Jahre einer. Zwischen 1980 und 2000 waren es nochmals vier, also alle fünf Jahre einer. Seit dem Jahr 2000 haben sich mit dem von Blatten mitgezählt bereits acht ereignet – im Schnitt also etwa alle drei Jahre.
Wenn das so weitergeht, werden sich in absehbarer Zeit jährlich solche Stürze ereignen.»

To paraphrase Barry Scwartz: The Paradox of Choice – Why More Is Less
With the continuous glitz of KDE, Hyprland, dwm, Slackware and Gentoo as daily drivers it's the time of year to start winding down.
Also because I've been revisiting Steve Anelay's videos (OldTechBloke, sorely missed) I'll spend a month on the Mate desktop, starting this Saturday.
But what to run it on? Help me make a choice, appreciated 😎

us_agencies: U.S. government agency websites (2018)
50 networks, one for each U.S. state, representing the web-based links between their associated government agencies websites. A node is an entire agency website and a directed edge (i,j) represents the existence of a hyperlink from any webpage in website i to some webpage in website j. Data was collected with a crawler. Nodes are annotated with the number of webpages per website, website name (related to its government function) and U…

wiki_link_dyn: Wikipedia link dynamics (2011)
Six networks of the evolving hyperlink structure among wikipedia articles, for simple English (en), German (de), Dutch (nl), Polish (pl), Italian (it), French (fr), taken in August 2011. Each edge is timestamped, and an edge (i,j) indicates that article i hyperlinks to j. The edge sign indicates the addition ( 1) or deletion (-1) of that link at the specified time.
This network has 100312 nodes and 1627472 edges.
