Abstract: We show that each set of $n\ge 2$ points in the plane in general position has a straight-line matching with at least $(5n+1)/27$ edges whose segments form a connected set, and such a matching can be computed in $O(n \log n)$ time. As an upper bound, we show that for some planar point sets in general position the largest matching whose segments form a connected set has $\lceil \frac{n-1}{3}\rceil$ edges. We also consider a colored version, where each edge of the matching should connect points with different colors.

Abstract: Weighted Padovan graphs $\Phi^{n}_{k}$, $n \geq 1$, $\lfloor \frac{n}{2} \rfloor \leq k \leq \lfloor \frac{2n-2}{3} \rfloor$, are introduced as the graphs whose vertices are all Padovan words of length $n$ with $k$ $1$s, two vertices being adjacent if one can be obtained from the other by replacing exactly one $01$ with a $10$. By definition, $\sum_k |V(\Phi^{n}_{k})|=P_{n+2}$, where $P_n$ is the $n$th Padovan number. Two families of graphs isomorphic to weighted Padovan graphs are presented. The order, the size, the degree, the diameter, the cube polynomial, and the automorphism group of weighted Padovan graphs are determined. It is also proved that they are median graphs.

Abstract: This paper presents the results of Monte Carlo neutron transport calculations performed for the containment building of the Krško Nuclear Power Plant. The calculations were performed using the Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code (MCNP) in combination with the ADVANTG hybrid code to speed up the convergence of the results outside the reactor core. The paper focuses on the analysis of the Ex-Vessel Neutron Dosimetry (EVND) program conducted during the 25th fuel cycle at the Krško nuclear power plant with the irradiation of gradient chains and multiple foil sensor sets. The calculated reaction rates at the dosimeter locations are in good agreement with the measured values. However, deviations were observed in the thermal part of the neutron energy spectrum which cannot be neglected, and investigated were some possible reasons for the deviations: nuclear data, concrete material composition, concrete geometry, sensor position and impurities in sample.

Abstract: The skin serves as the outermost barrier between an organism and its environment and fulfills numerous physiological and ecological functions. In lizards, scale morphology is an important adaptive trait that mediates responses to environmental influences such as extreme temperatures, ultraviolet radiation, drought and anthropogenic disturbances. Our study provides an analysis of the environmental drivers influencing intraspecific variation in the scale ecomorphology of the island lizard Gallotia galloti across 3700 m of elevation, taking into account different macro- and microclimatic conditions and varying degrees of anthropogenic influences and across three body regions: dorsal, ventral and tail. We found several correlations suggesting multiple dependencies of scale morphology on environmental variation. The positive correlation between July temperature and wind speed at 3 cm above the ground and dorsal scale density showed that more densely packed scales are associated with hotter and drier environments. This could possibly be related to the thermoregulatory and hydroregulatory function of the skin, since the dorsal side of the body is most exposed. Higher sun exposure was associated with larger dorsal and tail scales, indicating a possible photoprotective function. Ventral scales are not exposed to the pressure of solar radiation and wind. Accordingly, ventral scales showed no correlation with these factors, but we found that a higher ratio of day-to-night temperature variation relative to seasonal changes (isothermality) was associated with a higher density of ventral scales. The human footprint index positively correlated with larger and denser ventral (and not dorsal or tail) scales. Overall, our results illustrate the complexity of responses of scale morphology to different environmental variations. Evidently, G. galloti exhibits morphological diversity in response to climatic conditions and urbanization, highlighting the potential ecological significance of scale size variation. Future research should investigate the genetic basis and possible effects of climate change on scale morphology.
