The purpose of the present work is to provide a detailed asymptotic analysis of the $k\times\ell$ doubly periodic Aztec diamond dimer model of growing size for any $k$ and $\ell$ and under mild conditions on the edge weights. We explicitly…
In this note we investigate the behavior of the polar tangential angle of a general plane curve, and in particular prove its monotonicity for certain curves of monotone curvature. As an application we give (non)existence results for an…
A controlling factor in the seasonal and climatological evolution of the sea ice cover is its albedo $\alpha$. Here we analyze Arctic data from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) Polar Pathfinder and assess the seasonality…
