Under certain conditions, detection of a masked tone is improved by a preceding sound ("precursor"). This phenomenon is referred to as the "temporal effect" or "overshoot". A prevalent model of overshoot, referred to as the "gain reduction model", po... Read More about Is Overshoot Caused by an Efferent Reduction in Cochlear Gain?.

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Coates, T., Corti, A., Galkin, S., Golyshev, V., & Kasprzyk, A. M. (2013). Mirror symmetry and Fano manifolds.

We consider mirror symmetry for Fano manifolds, and describe how one can recover the classification of 3-dimensional Fano manifolds from the study of their mirrors. We sketch a program to classify 4-dimensional Fano manifolds using these ideas.
