Crane and Frenkel proposed a state sum invariant for triangulated 4-manifolds. They sketched the definition of a Hopf category that was to be used in their construction. Crane and Yetter studied Hopf categories and gave some examples using group cocycles that are associated to the Drinfeld double of
The occurrence and nature of first-order transitions (FOT) in Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8 (BSCCO) are still open issues, although results from a number of experiments do support a FOT both at low and high fields. We present a FOT obtained via Monte Carlo simulations using the Lawrence-Doniach model for lay
