A Bayesian Projection of the Total Fertility Rate of Puerto Rico: 2020-2050

Angélica Rosario Santos, Luis Pericchi Guerra, Hernando Mattei

The abrupt decline in the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) of Puerto Rico since 2000 makes the prospect of a sustained population decline a real possibility. From 2000 to 2021 the TFR de…

On a new Gram determinant from the Möbius band

Dionne Ibarra, Gabriel Montoya-Vega

Gram determinants earned traction among knot theorists after E. Witten's presumption about the existence of a 3-manifold invariant connected to the Jones polynomial. Triggered by t…
