We discuss (and debunk) ten common myths about cosmological perturbations in inflationary and ekpyrotic/cyclic models and their implications for future observations.

In this paper, we consider systems with one resource, which can be in several states. The states differ significantly in their processes of mortality, reproduction and mutual influence. For instance, infected elements can have a higher mortality rate than healthy and recovered ones. For cyclic models, in which the initial state of the system coincides with the final state, balance relations are found. They represent a system with functional operators with shift and integrals with degenerate kernels. Modified Fredholm method, proposed in previous works to solve the integral equations of the second type with degenerate kernels and shifts, is applied. Equilibrium position of a system with a three-state resource is found.

The rate constants of acetylcholine receptor channels (AChR) desensitization and recovery were estimated from the durations and frequencies of clusters of single-channel currents. Diliganded-open AChR desensitize much faster than either unliganded- or diliganded-closed AChR, which indicates that the desensitization rate constant depends on the status of the activation gate rather than the occupancy of the transmitter binding sites. The desensitization rate constant does not change with the nature of the agonist, the membrane potential, the species of permeant cation, channel block by ACh, the subunit composition (ε or γ), or several mutations that are near the transmitter binding sites. The results are discussed in terms of cyclic models of AChR activation, desensitization, and recovery. In particular, a mechanism by which activation and desensitization are mediated by two distinct, but interrelated, gates in the ion permeation pathway is proposed.

A new kind of evolution for cyclic models in which the Hubble parameter oscillates and remains positive has been explored in a specific f(R, T) gravity reconstruction. A singularity-free cyclic universe with negative varying cosmological constant has been obtained, which supports the role suggested for negative Λ in stopping the eternal acceleration. The cosmological solutions have been obtained for the case of a flat universe, supported by observations. The cosmic pressure grows without singular values; it is positive during the early-time decelerated expansion and negative during the late-time accelerating epoch. The time-varying equation of state parameter ω(t) shows quintom behavior and is restricted to the range –2.25 ≤ ω(t) ≲ 1/3. The validity of the classical linear energy conditions and the sound speed causality condition has been studied. The non-conventional mechanism of negative cosmological constant that are expected to address the late-time acceleration has been discussed.

Traditional linear models of innovation, in which it is assumed that government funding of R&D will axiomatically create innovative industries, have become obsolete. This paper suggests that innovation is in fact a complex and interactive process that involves cycles of learning. However, these "knowledge cycle" models of innovation are largely unvalidated empirically and further research will be required to extend the current theory. Knowledge cycle models appear to be superior to the linear models for a number of reasons. These include major roles for tacit (uncodified) knowledge as well as explicit (codified) knowledge, which are largely ignored in linear innovation models. An emphasis upon iterative collaboration between firms and researchers and the importance of firms participating more directly in the research and development (R&D) process may enhance the utilisation of these forms of knowledge.
