Description. Body uniformly dark brown, shiny, all the dorsum covered with thin short setae on aerolae margins; body length, 2.56; width, 1.10.
Head short, with two tiny frontal and one median tubercle, antennae slender, third and fourth segments pubescent, antennal segment measurements, I, 0.12; II, 0.70; III, 0.12; IV, 0.13; bucculae short and wide, four areolae wide, joining in front; rostrum long, reaching the second visible abdominal segment;
Pronotum longer than wide, swollen, punctuate, tricarinate; carinae laminate, raised and of the same size, uniseriate, the areolae rectangular and large; collar raised as to form a cyst-like hood, with subquadrate areolae of te same size than on carinae; paranota developped, raised with margins rounded, with two rows of subquadrate areolae of the same size than on carinae; sulcus straight and narrow, slightly enlarging on metasternum.
Hemelytra slightly enlarged, divided in the usual areas; costal area raised, biseriate all along, with one or two additional areolae opposite of RM and Cu junction, aerolae large and subquadrate; subcostal area almost the same width than costal area, biseriate, areolae subquadrate and of the same size than on costal area; discoidal area longer than half the length of hemelytra, four areolae wide at widest part, aerolae a little smaller than on subcostal area; sutural area four to five aerolae wide, areolae enlarging from base to paex, then larger than on other areas.
Comments. This single specimen is clearly different than the holotype of Recaredus rex, the only known species of the genus. It differs from it by the costal area completely biseriate (partly uniseriate in rex in both sex); the paranota biseriate and with large areolae, while there are triseriate and with smaller areolae on R. rex.
Etymology. This species is named in honor to the Tiger project which allowed the authors to study this specimen.

description: This paper examines socio-cultural relations between Abajah community in Nwangele Local Government Area of Imo State and her neighboursin Nwangele Local Government Area of Imo State namely; Amaigbo, and Isu communities and in Isiala Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State namely; Amaraku, Anara, Amauzari, and Umunkwo between 1921 to 1960. This study intends to show the level of interactions between Abajah community and her neighbours and how they have related both in the areas of marriage, African traditional religion, Christianity, festivals etc., have affected the relations between Abajah and her neighbours. Based on the foregoing, a qualitative research method was used to unearth the relationship between Abajah and her neighbours. The study made use of primary and secondary and tertiary sources of history.  The primary materials came from personal interviews conducted by the researcher, archival documents, while secondary materials were textbooks, and journal articles.  Tertiary materials were works of different authors gotten from the Internet. The study finds out that relations between Abajah and her neighbours within the period understudy were cordial. The work concludes that, the people have continued to maintained mutual relationship as people that share common ancestry

description: Screening is a ubiquitous phenomenon through which the polarization of bound or mobile charges tends to reduce the strengths of electric fields inside materials. Here we show how photoexcitation can be used as a knob to transform conventional out-of-plane screening into anti-screening - the amplification of electric fields - in multilayer graphene stacks. We find that, by varying the photoexcitation intensity, multiple nonequilibrium screening regimes can be accessed, including near-zero screening, anti-screening, or overscreening (reversing electric fields). Strikingly, at modest continuous wave photoexcitation intensities, the nonequilibrium polarization states become multistable, hosting light-induced ferroelectric-like steady states with nonvanishing out-of-plane polarization (and band gaps) even in the absence of an externally applied displacement field in nominally inversion symmetric stacks. This rich phenomenology reveals a novel paradigm of dynamical quantum matter that we expect will enable a variety of nonequilibrium broken symmetry phases.

Daher wurde in dieser Studie die Häufigkeit von PRKAR1A-Mutationen bei 27 Fällen mithilfe von NGS untersucht ebenso wie eine PRKAR1A-Immunhistochemie-Analyse. Von den sporadischen CM wiesen 48 % Mutationen auf. Bei den mutierten CM-Fällen war der Verlust der PRKAR1A-Proteinexpression deutlich häufiger. Diese PRKAR1A-Mutationen könnten bei sporadischen Myxomen einen wichtigen onkogenen Mechanismus darstellen, wie bereits bei CM-Fällen in Verbindung mit CNC bekannt.

description: In the solid state, a large variety of single-photon emitters present high quality photophysical properties together with a potential for integration. However, in many cases, the host matrix induces fluctuations of the emission wavelength in time, limiting the potential applications based on indistinguishable photons. A deep understanding of the underlying spectral diffusion processes is therefore of high importance for improving the stability of the light emission. Here, we theoretically investigate the photon statistics of an emitter driven by a resonant laser, and subject to either of two qualitatively different stationary spectral diffusion processes - a continuous diffusion process and a process based on discrete spectral jumps, both of which being known to model the spectral diffusion of various solid-state emitters. We show that the statistics of light emission carries several experimentally accessible signatures that allow to discriminate between the two classes of models, both at short times in the intensity correlation function, and at long times in the fluctuations of the integrated intensity. These results establish that resonant excitation combined with photon statistics offers a rich access to the spectral diffusion processes, yielding information that goes beyond the bare characterization of the inhomogeneous shape and noise correlation time. Incidentally, our findings shed a new light on recent experimental results of spectral diffusion of B centers in hexagonal boron nitride, providing more insight in their spectral diffusion mechanisms.

description: Chemical weathering can bias the interpretation of cosmogenic nuclide measurements for denudation rates, because soluble minerals have shorter regolith residence times than insoluble minerals. Paired-mineral measurements in target minerals with different solubility and corrections based on stream-water-derived weathering rates theoretically offer ways to mitigate these biases. Here we test these approaches in the carbonate landscapes of the Tabular Jura and Black Forest in Switzerland and Germany. We measured 26 36Cl and 10Be concentrations for catchment-average denudation rates in calcite and quartz grains, respectively, and derive weathering rates from stream water chemistry along a denudation rate gradient. In catchments with homogeneous lithology, the 10Be-36Cl paired-mineral approach predicts weathering rates that agree with stream-water derived measurements. In catchments with heterogeneous lithology, stream-water derived weathering rates were used to correct 10Be and 36Cl denudation rates. Weathering-corrected denudation rates increase by 100% for 10Be and decrease by 5% for 36Cl compared to uncorrected ones, illustrating that the magnitude of weathering correction depends on the abundance of target minerals. We find denudation rates of 50–100 mm/ka on the low relief carbonate-dominated Bözberg plateau and intermediate relief incised carbonate valleys of the Randen, where weathering accounts for about 75% and 50% of the denudation, respectively. Along the Bözberg plateau flanks and the mid-relief Wutach tributaries denudation rates range between 100 and 200 mm/ka, with erosion and weathering each contributing about 50%. In the rapidly incising Wutach gorge, denudation rates are 300–500 mm/ka with less than 20% of weathering. These findings show that, similarly to crystalline rocks, the fraction of weathering in mixed sedimentary rocks inversely scales with denudation rate. Our study demonstrates that when sampling sites are chosen to ensure that target minerals are sourced from the same area, paired-mineral measurements and stream-water weathering corrections can be effectively used to determine denudation and weathering rates.

description: Literature on platform governance is focused on keystone organizations that exclusively own a platform and control its complementors and users. However, emerging network-driven platform ecosystems—such as European data spaces—represent a shift in focus by allowing stakeholders to share platform ownership and decision rights. To investigate this emerging phenomenon, we conduct a qualitative-explorative case study, interviewing 32 representatives of Catena-X, a European data space in the automotive industry. To conceptually grasp the co-development and management of network-driven platform ecosystems, we employ a network governance perspective as the theoretical lens. We contribute to platform governance literature with (1) a conceptualization of shared platform ownership recognizing the dichotomy of inner and outer governance, and (2) a process model and a conceptual model of an interorganizational network governing the emergence of a platform ecosystem.

description: Genus Traiguma Distant
Type species. Traiguma nasuta Distan, by original designation. Diagnosis. Crown produced in front of eyes, longer than median length of pronotum, tuberculate, sometimes curved dorsally either apically widened or pointed. Eyes prominent, projecting laterally Ocelli on tubercles mesad and slightly in front of eye. Transclypeal sulcus not well-developed. Clypellus broad basally narrowed apically, extending beyond genal curve, apically concave in middle. Lora narrow long, reaching transclypeal suture dorsally. Gena broad, concealing proepisternum laterally. Pronotum with lateral margins feebly carinate posteriorly. Mesoscutellum with posterior half gibbous. Hind wing costal margin with 6 stout setae in proximal half (Fig. 14N, O). Fore tibiae moderately dilated. Meta femur distal macrosetae 2+0. Meta tibial row PD 9, AD 8±1, AV 14±2; metabasitarsomere plantar surface with one stout seta with prominent alveolus in addition to narrow thin setae, distal transverse row with 5–6 platellae flanked by one stout seta(Fig. 15H). Male pygofer without ventral process, Aedeagus with length of shaft more or less subequal to atrium and dorsal apodeme, shaft more or less of uniform width with or without angular expansion on dorsal or ventral surface, gonopore subapical to apical on ventral surface.
Description. As described by Viraktamath & Webb (1991) with the following additional characters or modifications. Forewing with two parallel sided claval veins without cross veins; hind wing costal margin with 6 stout setae in proximal half. Metabasitarsomere with one stout seta with prominent sclerotized alveolus, distal transverse row with 5–6 platellae.
Remarks. Viraktamath & Webb (1991) adequately redescribed the genus and hence it is not repeated here. The genae are broad and conceal the proepisternum. Rexamination of the forewings of the three species indicated that there are two claval veins, not one as erroneously stated by Viraktamath & Webb (1990). The genus is at present restricted to the high elevations in South India. The three included species can be recognized by the following key.

description: Neural Architecture Search (NAS) paves the way for the automatic definition of Neural Network (NN) architectures, attracting increasing research attention and offering solutions in various scenarios. This study introduces a novel NAS solution, called Flat Neural Architecture Search (FlatNAS), which explores the interplay between a novel figure of merit based on robustness to weight perturbations and single NN optimization with Sharpness-Aware Minimization (SAM). FlatNAS is the first work in the literature to systematically explore flat regions in the loss landscape of NNs in a NAS procedure, while jointly optimizing their performance on in-distribution data, their out-of-distribution (OOD) robustness, and constraining the number of parameters in their architecture. Differently from current studies primarily concentrating on OOD algorithms, FlatNAS successfully evaluates the impact of NN architectures on OOD robustness, a crucial aspect in real-world applications of machine and deep learning. FlatNAS achieves a good trade-off between performance, OOD generalization, and the number of parameters, by using only in-distribution data in the NAS exploration. The OOD robustness of the NAS-designed models is evaluated by focusing on robustness to input data corruptions, using popular benchmark datasets in the literature.

This genus of Ants is founded on characters derived from males only: in all probability the genus Physatta, the characters of which are derived from females, may prove to be the other sex of Myrmicaria; specimens of both genera have been received from India, Java, and Port Natal, but it appears desirable to keep them separate until further information is obtained; in the genus Myrmicaria, the antennae are 13-jointed, those of Physatta being 7-jointed; the labial and maxillary palpi 3-jointed.

Type material. Holotype: M.61.4361, Hungarian Natural History Museum, SL: 24.0 mm, MD: 6.2 mm, Sámsonháza (Hungary) (Pálfy et al. 2008), figs 17A 1 –A 2. Paratypes: M.61.4362, 3 specimens, Hungarian Natural History Museum, SL: 15.0 mm, MD: 3.9 mm, Sámsonháza (Hungary) (Pálfy et al. 2008), Figs 17B 1 –B 2, C 1 –C 2, D 1 –D 2, E 1 –E 2.
Revised description. Shell moderately large, slender fusiform, with very high spire. Protoconch unknown. Teleoconch of nine high, subcylindrical to weakly convex whorls, with periphery mid-whorl, separated by incised suture. Sculpture of widely spaced, sharp-crested, orthocline to weakly opisthocline axial ribs, most prominent along periphery, weakening towards adapical and abapical suture. Axial sculpture fading out on seventh spire whorl; penultimate and last whorls smooth. Last whorl high, subcylindrical, weakly shouldered, moderately constricted at base. No spiral sculpture except for faint spiral cords on weak fasciole. Aperture narrow elongate. Columellar callus indistinct, columella with four oblique folds. Outer lip not preserved. Siphonal canal moderately long, wide, slightly bent to left, with wide, shallow siphonal notch.
Shell measurements and ratios. SL: 15.0–24.0 mm, MD: 3.9–6.2 mm; AA: 24–30°, A/S: 0.6–0.7.
Discussion. This species is reminiscent of Vexillum badense (Hoernes & Auinger, 1880) and Vexillum intermittens (Hoernes & Auinger, 1880), but is distinguished from both species by its distinctly more slender shell and higher spire whorls. Its axial ribs are most prominent mid-whorl, whereas in the other two species they strengthen towards the abapical suture. Finally, the occurrence in silty-sandy nearshore deposits of Sámsonháza indicates an ecological separation from V. badense and V. intermittens, which are confined to basinal settings.
Palaeoenvironment. The Sámsonháza Formation represents inner neritic shallow water environments (Kovács & Vicián, 2017).
Distribution in Central Paratethys. Badenian (middle Miocene): Pannonian Basin: Sámsonháza (Hungary) (Strausz 1966).

(Figs 15, 16)
Material examined. 1F, NW, Chiangmai, Fang, 12–19.IV.1958, T.C. Maa coll., BPBM.
Description. Body shiny, yellowish to brownish; fourth antennal joint and body beneath brown. Body length, 2.97; width, 1.23.
Head armed with five spines, long and slender, straight and directed forwards; bucculae two small areolae wide, closed in front; first and second antennal joints stout, third and fourth long and slender, antennal joints measurements. I, 0.13; II, 0.10; III, 0.80; IV, 0.30; rostral canal narrowing anteriorly and slightly widened posteriorly, open behind; rostrum almost reaching middle of metasterum.
Pronotum long and gibbose, tricarinate, carinae pilose, raised all along pronotum, foliate, uniseriate, except top of median carina biseriate, the areolae rather large; collar raised as to form a hood somewhat cyst-like, long and narrow, four to five areolae long, higher than top of pronotum, but less high than median carina; paranota wide, three areolae wide, the areolae subquadrate and large, the inner row abruptly turned so as to form a ridge-like separation from the two outer rows, a transverse ridge opposite humeri separating an anterior part from a posterior part, both convex, outer margin raised and following lateral carina, but not reaching it.
Hemelytra a little wider than pronotum and constricted behind end of discoidal area; costal area regularly biseriate; subcostal area narrower than costal area, biseriate; discoidal area longer than half the hemelytra, six areolae wide at widest part; sutural area as large as discoidal area, five to six areolae wide at widest part.
Comments. It is close to T. malloti Drake & Poor because of the absence of spines on the body. However, it differs from it by the shorter and narrower hemelytra. The discoidal area of T. malloti is 7–8 areolae wide, while it is 6 areolae wide in T. maae. It differs from T. chinensis Drake by the longitudinally depressed paranota, and the costal area which is regularly biseriate and with larger areolae. Trachypeplus wapi Guilbert is also different from T. maae by the costal area and the presence of spines on the body.
Etymology. This species is named in honor to T. C. Maa who has collected and described many oriental species of Tingidae.

description: This work considers the distance constrained formation control problem with an additional constraint requiring that the formation exhibits a specified spatial symmetry. We employ recent results from the theory of symmetry-forced rigidity to construct an appropriate potential function that leads to a gradient dynamical system driving the agents to the desired formation. We show that only $(1+1/|Γ|)n$ edges are sufficient to implement the control strategy when there are $n$ agents and the underlying symmetry group is $Γ$. This number is considerably smaller than what is typically required from classic rigidity-theory based strategies ($2n-3$ edges). We also provide an augmented control strategy that ensures the agents can converge to a formation with respect to an arbitrary centroid. Numerous numerical examples are provided to illustrate the main results.

Taxonomy

description: Genus 6. HEPTACONDYLUS, Smith.
Head suborbiculate, wider than the thorax; eyes lateral and ovate; the stemmata placed in a triangle on the vertex; antennae geniculated, filiform, the scape nearly as long as the flagellum, placed forwards on the head at the base of the clypeus; the flagellum6-jointed, the joints clavate, except the apical one, which is cylindrical; the labial palpi 3-jointed, the maxillary palpi 3-jointed. Thorax ovate, gibbous; the scutellum very prominent; the metathorax armed with two acute spines (in the female), compressed and strangulated (in the workers); the superior wings with one marginal and one complete submarginal cell, the submarginal cell receiving the recurrent nervure; the superior angle of the discoidal cell touching the costal nervure. Abdomen ovate; the peduncle composed of two nodes.
This genus presents a remarkable deviation from the general rule, as exemplified in the aculeate Hymenoptera; thus the normal number of joints in the antennae of the females being 12, and 13 in the males, as a general rule, serves to discriminate the sexes: the workers also have usually 12-jointed antennae, but in the present genus both the female and worker have only 7 joints. The genus Orectognathus has only 5 joints in the antennae, but only workers are known. In Heptacondylus, however, the female has the same reduced number of joints as the worker, and this must be considered the perfect condition of the species.

description: Equines, comprising horses, ponies, and donkeys, have been an integral part of India's cultural heritage, agricultural systems, and traditional practices. India has produced distinctive native breeds over the centuries that are well suited to the nation's varied topography and climate. India possesses about 0.54 million equines as per the 2019 livestock census. The major population of equids comprises donkeys, mules, horses, and ponies. The population of horses and ponies has reduced by 1.81% per year and donkeys declined by 1.53% per year from 1956 to 2019.  The registered Indian breeds by National Bureau of Animal Genetic Resources, number for horses and ponies is 8 and for donkeys it is 3. These horse breeds not only represent India's abundant biodiversity, but are also essential to agriculture, transportation, rural livelihoods, and ceremonial customs. India's native horse breeding stock, which includes well-known breeds like the Marwari, Kathiawari, Manipuri, and Zanskari, is extremely valuable due to its distinctive traits like resilience, endurance, and adaptability. Breeds of donkeys such as the Halari and Spiti are equally valuable because of their contributions to rural economies, especially in the areas of agricultural labor and transportation.

Comments. These specimens correspond to Aphelotingis muiri, but don’t have median cephalic spine. In addition, the habitus drawn by Péricart in 1990 from specimens from Sri-Lanka has no median cephalic spine. Aphelotingis muiri was designed as type species of Aphelotingis by Drake (1948), separating the genus Aphelotingis from Abdastartus on the basis of much longer bucculae and much longer fourth antennal joint of Aphelotingis species. Aphelotingis muiri is the only species of the genus inhabiting the Asian region. The two other species of the genus are endemic to Madagascar.

Worker. Length 2 1/2 lines.-Dark fusco-ferruginous: closely resembling H. subcarinatus, but with thicker antennae and the joints shorter; the scape distinctly shorter, and not so slender at the base; the head proportionately larger, and much more strongly carinated; the thorax roughly carinated, and having longer and stouter spines; in other respects resembling H. subcarinatus.
Hab. Borneo (Sarawak).
Whether this can possibly be a form of H. subcarinatus, it is impossible to determine; the various differences pointed out appear to distinguish a distinct species.
