Let $q\in k[[x,y]]\otimes\Sym^2(V^*)$ be a primitive framed binary quadratic germ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. A maximal primitive blowup path carries multiplicities, free/satellite proximity, and three exceptional types: constant-root branch $B$, mo...

From Geometric Phantom to Physical Universe — An Enrichment of the Kruskal Diagram
Abstract: The Kruskal-Szekeres diagram is a landmark of general relativity, revealing the complete geometric structure of the Schwarzschild spacetime via maximal analytic extension. However, the standard diagram has a fundamental limitation: among its four quadrants, only the upp...

Abstract Alveolar repair and regeneration are critical for resolving lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI); however, the molecular mechanisms that restrain this process remain unclear. Here, we identify PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) as a critical regulator of alveolar regenerat...

EPIDEMIOLOGY OF MUSCULOSKELETAL MALIGNANCIES IN BASRAH
Background: Musculoskeletal malignancies, including primary and secondary bone and soft tissue cancers, are uncommon but represent an important public health concern because of their associated morbidity and mortality. Describing their epidemiological characteristics is essential...

Accounting Digital Talent Demand and Financial Reporting Quality: Evidence from Job Posting
This study examines whether digital skills demanded within the accounting function are associated with financial reporting quality. Using online job postings for listed firms from 2014 to 2022, I construct a firm-year proxy for accounting digital talent demand by identifying acco...
