Published: November 2019

For a degree sequence, we define the set of edges that appear in every labeled realization of that sequence as forced, while the edges that appear in none are define as forbidden. We examine the structure of graphs in which the degree sequences contain either forced or forbidden edges. The results include the determination of the structure of the forced or forbidden edge sets, the relationship between the sizes of forced and forbidden sets for a sequence, and the structural consequences to their realizations. This includes showing that the diameter of every realization of a degree sequence containing forced or forbidden edges is no greater than 3, and that these graphs are maximally edge-connected.

In this study, the collective escape and supratransmission phenomena along a nonlinear chain of coupled particles subjected to a cubic on-site potential are considered. It is shown that the minimum initial on-site amplitude for which there is a collective escape increases with the nonlinear coupling. When the chain is forced at one end by a periodical excitation, the system exhibits supratransmission phenomenon in both lower and upper forbidden bandgaps, and, subsequently, it appears that the driving amplitude threshold for supratransmission in the upper forbidden bandgap frequency decreases with the nonlinear coupling.

Objective: To evaluate the frequency and severity of pleuropulmonary alterations in anthophyllite-exposed former workers in Itapira, São Paulo, Brazil. The amphibole anthophyllite, a magnesium-iron silicate, had its mining, marketing, and use forbidden in Brazil in 1995.

Methods: Former workers were followed from 1999 to 2011.

This study aimed to determine contact and privacy risks encountered by Malaysian adolescents with access to the Internet and mobile phones and factors associated with face-to-face meetings with online acquaintances as well as to estimate the prevalence of subsequent victimization. Secondary school students from randomly selected public schools in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur responded to an anonymous self-administered questionnaire (78% response rate). Out of 3,349 Internet or mobile phone users, 51% had been invited to meet offline with an online-meeting acquaintance and 30% complied.
