Abstract We introduce a new invariant of finitely generated groups, the ambiguity function, and we prove that every finitely generated acylindrically hyperbolic group has a linearly bounded ambiguity function. We use this result to prove that the relative exponential growth rate lim n → ∞ ⁡ | B H X ⁢ ( n ) | n \lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{\lvert\vphantom{1_{1}}{B^{X}_{H}(n)}\rvert} of a subgroup 𝐻 of a finitely generated acylindrically hyperbolic group 𝐺 exists with respect to every finite generating set 𝑋 of 𝐺 if 𝐻 contains a loxodromic element of 𝐺. Further, we prove that the relative exponential growth rate of every finitely generated subgroup 𝐻 of a right-angled Artin group A Γ A_{\Gamma} exists with respect to every finite generating set of A Γ A_{\Gamma} .

AbstractWe investigate the conjugacy growth of finitely generated linear groups. We show that finitely generated non-virtually-solvable subgroups of GLd have uniform exponential conjugacy growth and in fact that the number of distinct polynomials arising as characteristic polynomials of the elements of the ball of radius n for the word metric has exponential growth rate bounded away from 0 in terms of the dimension d only.

We consider a stochastic model of investment on an asset in a stock market for a prudent investor. she decides to buy permanent goods with a fraction α of the maximum amount of money owned in her life in order that her economic level never decreases. The optimal strategy is obtained by maximizing the exponential growth rate for a fixed α. We derive analytical expressions for the typical exponential growth rate of the capital and its fluctuations by solving an one-dimensional random walk with drift.

We study FAD-languages, which are regular languages defined by finite sets of forbidden factors, together with their “canonical” recognizing automata. We are mainly interested in the possible asymptotic orders of growth for such languages. We analyze certain simplifications of sets of forbidden factors and show that they “almost” preserve the canonical automata. Using this result and structural properties of canonical automata, we describe an algorithm that effectively lists all canonical automata having a sink strong component isomorphic to a given digraph, or reports that no such automata exist. This algorithm can be used, in particular, to prove the existence of a FAD-language over a given alphabet with a given exponential growth rate. On the other hand, we give an example showing that the algorithm cannot prove non-existence of a FAD-language having a given growth rate. Finally, we provide some examples of canonical automata with a nontrivial condensation graph and of FAD-languages with a “complex” order of growth.

The growth of psychrotrophic Bacillus cereus 404 from spores in boiled rice was examined experimentally at 15, 20, and 30°C. Using the Gompertz function, observed growth was modeled, and these kinetic values were compared with kinetic values for the growth of mesophilic vegetative cells as predicted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Pathogen Modeling Program, version 5.1. An analysis of variance indicated no statistically significant difference between observed and predicted values. A graphical comparison of kinetic values demonstrated that modeled predictions were “fail safe” for generation time and exponential growth rate at all temperatures. The model also was fail safe for lag-phase duration at 20 and 30°C but not at l5°C. Bias factors of 0.55, 0.82, and 1.82 for generation time, lag-phase duration, and exponential growth rate, respectively, indicated that the model generally was fail safe and hence provided a margin of safety in its growth predictions. Accuracy factors of 1.82, 1.60, and 1.82 for generation time, lag-phase duration, and exponential growth rate, respectively, quantitatively demonstrated the degree of difference between predicted and observed values. Although the Pathogen Modeling Program produced reasonably accurate predictions of the growth of psychrotrophic B. cereus from spores in boiled rice, the margin of safety provided by the model may be more conservative than desired for some applications. It is recommended that if microbial growth modeling is to be applied to any food safety or processing situation, it is best to validate the model before use. Once experimental data are gathered, graphical and quantitative methods of analysis can be useful tools for evaluating specific trends in model prediction and identifying important deviations between predicted and observed data.

Using Yomdin's Theorem [8], we show that for a compact Riemannian manifold M, the geodesic entropy — defined as the exponential growth rate of the average number of geodesic segments between two points — is ≤ the topological entropy of the geodesic flow of M. We also show that if M is simply connected and N ⊂ M is a compact simply connected submanifold, then the exponential growth rate of the sequence given by the Betti numbers of the space of paths starting in N and ending in a fixed point of M, is bounded above by the topological entropy of the geodesic flow on the normal sphere bundle of N.

<div><p><em>The major objective of this study is to understanding the factors that influence the loyalty behaviour of customers towards brick-and-mortar departmental fashion retailers in Pune city. The study has been conducted by keeping one of the leading departmental stores in reference, but the findings of the study are generalized and can be applied to other fashion retailers of similar or non-similar formats. Fashion is one of the fastest growing categories and continues to grow at exponential growth rate due to increased fashion awareness and aspirations. Today we can see that fashion products account for a substantial percentage of the products sold across a broad range of merchandise categories. </em></p><p><em>Research on fashion retailing has been based on varying conceptual definitions of the construct and has focused primarily on in-store retailing. A number of researchers have made important contributions to understanding of loyalty behaviour of shoppers towards fashion retailers.  Therefore, the consumer behaviour of an important sector of the millennials is worth to be researched. Here the researchers are trying to understand the variables that influence shoppers' loyalty behaviour which is nothing but the “preferential” behaviour of the shoppers towards a specific retailer’s stores. During this research the researchers found that, some of the major influencing factors are shopping atmosphere-ambience, fashion image of the retailer (retailer as a brand), fashion image of the Private Labels, and the effectiveness of the loyalty programme offered by the retailer.</em></p></div>

Aim. To study the spread of COVID-19 among the population of the Omsk Region during 24 weeks of the epidemic on the background of anti-epidemic measures.Materials and methods. A descriptive epidemiological study was carried out based on publically available data и data from the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in the Omsk Region on the official registration and epidemiological investigation of detected COVID-19 cases in the Omsk Region for the period from March 27 to September 10, 2020. To assess the potential of COVID-19 to spread, the following indicators were calculated: exponential growth rate (r), basic reproduction number (R0), effective reproduction number (Rt), expected natural epidemic size and herd immunity threshold. Data processing was performed using MS Excel 2010. The cartogram was built using the QGIS 3.12-Bukuresti application in the EPSG: 3576 coordinate system.Results and discussion. For the period from March 27 to September 10, 2020, a total of 9779 cases of COVID-19 were registered in the Omsk Region, the cumulative incidence was 507,6 per 100000 (95 % CI 497,5÷517,6), the case-fatality rate for completed cases was 2.9 %, for identified cases – 2.4 %. The most active spread of COVID-19 was noted in Omsk and 4 out of 32 districts of the region (Moskalensky, Azov German National, Mariyanovsky, Novovarshavsky). During the ongoing anti-epidemic measures, the exponential growth rate of the cumulative number of COVID-19 cases was 4.5 % per day, R0 – 1.4–1.5, Rt – 1.10, herd immunity threshold – 28.6 %. The expected size of the epidemic in case of sustained anti-epidemic measures can reach 58.0 % of the recovered population. A decrease in the number of detected virus carriers, incomplete detection of COVID-19 among patients with community-acquired pneumonia introduced additional risks for the latent spread of infection and complications of the epidemic situation. Maintaining restrictive  measures and increasing the proportion of the immune population (over 28.6 %) may significantly reduce the risks of increasing the spread of COVID-19 in the Omsk Region.
