description: Polarization in stars was first predicted by Chandrasekhar [1] who calculated a substantial linear polarization at the stellar limb for a pure electron-scattering atmosphere. This polarization will average to zero when integrated over a spherical star but could be detected if the symmetry is broken, for example by the eclipse of a binary companion. Nearly 50 years ago, Harrington and Collins [2] modeled another way of breaking the symmetry and producing net polarization - the distortion of a rapidly rotating hot star. Here we report the first detection of this effect. Observations of the linear polarization of Regulus, with two different high-precision polarimeters, range from +42 parts-per-million (ppm) at a wavelength of 741 nm to -22 ppm at 395 nm. The reversal from red to blue is a distinctive feature of rotation-induced polarization. Using a new set of models for the polarization of rapidly rotating stars we find that Regulus is rotating at 96.5$\substack{+0.6-0.8}$% of its critical angular velocity for breakup, and has an inclination greater than 76.5 degrees. The rotation axis of the star is at a position angle of 79.5$\pm$0.7 degrees. The conclusions are independent of, but in good agreement with, the results of previously published interferometric observations of Regulus [3]. The accurate measurement of rotation in early-type stars is important for understanding their stellar environments [4], and course of their evolution [5].

description: Formation of higher order structures, such as G-quadruplexes and G-quadruplex based large suprastructures into long G-wires and liquid crystals is promising elements for use in healthcare for drug delivery as they are mechanically and thermally stable. In this study, we studied the structures of short 11-mer oligonucleotide 5′-G2AG5AG2-3′(11Pu) which is observed in 3′-UTR region of c-jun protooncogene. We used circular dichroism, UV-thermal melting, native gel electrophoresis and atomic force microscopy to determine the structure of 11Pu. CD results showed that 11Pu formed a mixed G-quadruplex in the presence of Na+ with and without Mg2+, while it formed a parallel G-quadruplex in the presence of 100 mM K+ with or without Mg2+. Cation selectivity in inducing the formation of large superstructures was observed in the presence of 100 mM K+ with 10 mM Mg2+. On the contrary, 10 mM Ca2+ did not induce the suprastructures. It was further demonstrated that Mg2+ at low concentration induced a parallel G-quadruplex of 11Pu, whereas at 10 mM Mg2+ induced a large suprastructure. AFM Images showed that 11Pu formed a G-wire, a liquid crystals and a crystalline lattice depending on the concentration of 11Pu and Mg2+. These insights may be employed to design G quadruplex-based nanowires for targeted drug delivery as well as interesting candidates for molecular nanowires. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: Quantum particles can penetrate potential barriers by tunneling (1). If that barrier is rotating, the tunneling process is modified (2,3). This is typical for electrons in atoms, molecules or solids exposed to strong circularly polarized laser pulses (4,5). Here we measure how the transmission probability through a rotating tunnel depends on the sign of the magnetic quantum number m of the electron and thus on the initial sense of rotation of its quantum phase. We further show that the electron keeps part of that rotary motion on its way through the tunnel by measuring m-dependent modification of the electron emission pattern. These findings are relevant for attosecond metrology as well as for interpretation of strong field electron emission from atoms and molecules (6-13) and directly demonstrates the creation of ring currents in bound states of ions with attosecond precision. In solids, this could open a way to inducing and controlling ring-current related topological phenomena (14).

description: It has been shown that there is a sequential embedding structure in a $w_N$\ string theory based on a linearized $W_N$\ algebra. The $w_N$\ string theory is obtained as a special realization of the $w_{N+1}$\ string. The $w_{\infty}$\ string theory is a universal string theory in this sense. We have also shown that there is a similar sequence for $N=1$\ string theory. The $N=1\ w_N$\ string can be given as a special case of the $N=1\ w_{N+1}$\ string. In addition, we show that the $w_3$\ string theory is obtained as a special realization of the $N=1\ w_3$\ string. We conjecture that the $w_N$\ string can be obtained as a special $N=1\ w_N$\ string for general $w_N$. If this is the case, $N=1\ w_{\infty}$\ string theory is more universal since it includes both $N=0$\ and $N=1$\ $w_N$\ string theories.

description: Context. Currently galactic exploration is being revolutionized by a flow of new data: Gaia provides measurements of stellar distances and kinematics; growing numbers of spectroscopic surveys provide values of stellar atmospheric parameters and abundances of elements; and Kepler and K2 missions provide asteroseismic information for an increasing number of stars. Aims. In this work we aim to determine stellar distances and ages using Gaia and spectrophotometric data in a consistent way. We estimate precisions of age and distance determinations with Gaia end-of-mission and TGAS parallax precisions. Methods. To this end we incorporated parallax and extinction data into the isochrone fitting method used in the Unified tool to estimate Distances, Ages, and Masses (UniDAM). We prepared datasets that allowed us to study the improvement of distance and age estimates with the inclusion of TGAS and Gaia end-of-mission parallax precisions in isochrone fitting. Results. Using TGAS parallaxes in isochrone fitting we are able to reduce distance and age estimate uncertainties for TGAS stars for distances up to 1 kpc by more than one third, compared to results based only on spectrophotometric data. With Gaia end-of-mission parallaxes in isochrone fitting we will be able to further decrease our distance uncertainties by about a factor of 20 and age uncertainties by a factor of two for stars up to 10 kpc away from the Sun. Conclusions. We demonstrate that we will be able to improve our distance estimates for about one third of stars in spectroscopic surveys and to decrease log(age) uncertainties by about a factor of two for over 80% of stars as compared to the uncertainties obtained without parallax priors using Gaia end-of-mission parallaxes consistently with spectrophotometry in isochrone fitting .

description: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a deadly parasitic infection which affects poorest to poor population living in the endemic countries. Increasing resistant to existing drugs, disease burden and a significant number of deaths, necessitates the need for an effective vaccine to prevent the VL infection. This study employed a combinatorial approach to develop a multi-epitope subunit vaccine by exploiting Leishmania donovani membrane proteins. Cytotoxic T- and helper T-lymphocyte binding epitopes along with suitable adjuvant and linkers were joined together in a sequential manner to design the subunit vaccine. The occurrence of B-cell and IFN-γ inducing epitopes approves the ability of subunit vaccine to develop humoral and cell-mediated immune response. Physiochemical parameters of vaccine protein were also assessed followed by homology modeling, model refinement and validation. Moreover, disulfide engineering was performed for the increasing stability of the designed vaccine and molecular dynamics simulation was performed for the comparative stability purposes and to conform the geometric conformations. Further, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation study of a mutated and non-mutated subunit vaccine against TLR-4 immune receptor were performed and respective complex stability was determined. In silico cloning ensures the expression of designed vaccine in pET28a(+) expression vector. This study offers a cost-effective and time-saving way to design a novel immunogenic vaccine that could be used to prevent VL infection. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: Artificial magnetic honeycomb lattices are expected to exhibit a broad and tunable range of novel magnetic phenomena that would be difficult to achieve in natural materials, such as long-range spin ice, entropy-driven magnetic charge-ordered state and spin-order due to the spin chirality. Eventually, the spin correlation is expected to develop into a unique spin solid state density ground state, manifested by the distribution of the pairs of vortex states of opposite chirality. Here we report the creation of a new artificial permalloy honeycomb lattice of ultra-small connecting bonds, with a typical size of $\simeq$ 12 nm. Detail magnetic and neutron scattering measurements on the newly fabricated honeycomb lattice demonstrate the evolution of magnetic correlation as a function of temperature. At low enough temperature, neutron scattering measurements and micromagnetic simulation suggest the development of loop state of vortex configuration in this system.

description: We discuss questions arising from the work of Schellekens. After introducing the concept of complementary representations, we examine $Z_2$-orbifold constructions in general, and propose a technique for identifying the orbifold theory without knowledge of its explicit construction. This technique is then generalised to twists of order 3, 5 and 7, and we proceed to apply our considerations to the FKS constructions $H(Λ)$ ($Λ$ an even self-dual lattice) and the reflection-twisted orbifold theories $\widetilde H(Λ)$, which together remain the only $c=24$ theories which have so far been proven to exist. We also make, in the course of our arguments, some comments on the automorphism groups of the theories $H(Λ)$ and $\widetilde H(Λ)$, and of meromorphic theories in general, introducing the concept of deterministic theories.

description: In the first part of this article we survey general similarities and
differences between biological and social macroevolution. In the
second (and main) part, we consider a concrete mathematical
model capable of describing important features of both biological
and social macroevolution. In mathematical models of historical
macrodynamics, a hyperbolic pattern of world population growth
arises from non-linear, second-order positive feedback between
demographic growth and technological development. This is more
or less identical with the working of the collective learning
mechanism. Based on diverse paleontological data and an analogy
with macrosociological models, we suggest that the hyperbolic
character of biodiversity growth can be similarly accounted for by
non-linear, second-order positive feedback between diversity
growth and the complexity of community structure, suggesting
the presence within the biosphere of a certain analogue of the
collective learning mechanism. We discuss how such positive
feedback mechanisms can be modelled mathematically.

description: We present modeling strategies that describe the motion and interaction of groups of pedestrians in obscured spaces. We start off with an approach based on balance equations in terms of measures and then we exploit the descriptive power of a probabilistic cellular automaton model. Based on a variation of the simple symmetric random walk on the square lattice, we test the interplay between population size and an interpersonal attraction parameter for the evacuation of confined and darkened spaces. We argue that information overload and coordination costs associated with information processing in small groups are two key processes that influence the evacuation rate. Our results show that substantial computational resources are necessary to compensate for incomplete information -- the more individuals in (information processing) groups the higher the exit rate for low population size. For simple social systems, it is likely that the individual representations are not redundant and large group sizes ensure that this non--redundant information is actually available to a substantial number of individuals. For complex social systems information redundancy makes information evaluation and transfer inefficient and, as such, group size becomes a drawback rather than a benefit. The effect of group sizes on outgoing fluxes, evacuation times and wall effects are carefully studied with a Monte Carlo framework accounting also for the presence of an internal obstacle.

description: We study numerically the structure of a vortex lattice in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates with equal atomic masses and equal intra- and inter-component coupling strengths. The numerical simulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation show that the quantized vortices form uncertain lattice configurations accompanying the vortex stripes, honeycomb lattices, and their complexes. This is a result of the degeneracy of the system for the SU(2) symmetric operation, which makes a continuous transformation between the above structures. In terms of the pseudospin representation, the complex lattice structures are identified to a hexagonal lattice of doubly-winding half-skyrmions.

description: We present a polarisation map of the warm dust emission from the minispiral in the central parsec of the Galactic centre. The observations were made at a wavelength of 12.5 microns with CanariCam mounted on the 10.4-m Gran Telescopio Canarias. The magnetic field traced by the polarised emission from aligned dust grains is consistent with previous observations, but the increased resolution of the present data reveals considerably more information on the detailed structure of the B field and its correspondence with the filamentary emission seen in both mid-infrared continuum emission and free-free emission at cm wavelengths. The magnetic field appears to be compressed and pushed by the outflows from luminous stars in the Northern Arm, but it is not disordered by them. We identify some magnetically coherent filaments that cross the Northern Arm at a Position Angle of ~45 degrees, and which may trace orbits inclined to the primary orientation of the Northern Arm and circumnuclear disk. In the East-West bar, the magnetic fields implied by the polarization in the lower intensity regions lie predominantly along the bar at a Position Angle of 130 - 140 degrees. In contrast to the Northern Arm, the brighter regions of the bar tend to have lower degrees of polarization with a greater divergence in position angle compared to the local diffuse emission. It appears that the diffuse emission in the East-West bar traces the underlying field and that the bright compact sources are unrelated objects presumably projected onto the bar and with different field orientations

Further we can also analyse the one with slightly generalized $ g^{(2)} (\frac{1}{N}\tr M(t)^{2})^{2} +g^{(3)} (\frac{1}{N}\tr M(t)^{2})^{3} + \cdots + g^{(n)} (\frac{1}{N}\tr M(t)^{2})^{n} $ interaction.

description: What determines the transition of a society from one level of development to another? One of the most fundamental causes is the global technological trans-formations. Among all major technological breakthroughs in history the most important are the three production revolutions: 1) the Agrarian Revolution; 2) the Industrial Revolution and 3) the Scientific-Information Revolution which will transform into the Cybernetic one.
The article introduces the Theory of Production Revolutions. This is a new explanatory paradigm which is of value when analyzing causes and trends of global shifts in historical process. The article describes the course of techno-logical transformations in history and demonstrates a possible application of the theory to explain the present and forthcoming technological changes. The authors argue that the third production revolution that started in the 1950s and which they call the Cybernetic one, in the coming decades, that is in the 2030s and 2040s, will get a new impetus and enter its final stage – the epoch of (self)controllable systems. There are given certain forecasts concerning the development in such spheres as medicine, biotechnologies and nanotechnolo-gies in the coming decades (the 2010s – 2060s).

description: Current research has shown cell-penetrating peptides and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as probable vectors for use in drug delivery and as novel antibiotics. It has been reported that the higher the therapeutic index (TI) the higher would be the bacterial cell penetrating ability. To the best of our knowledge, no in-silico study has been performed to determine bacterial cell specificity of the antimicrobial cell penetrating peptides (aCPP’s) based on their TI. The aim of this study was to develop a quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) model, which can estimate antimicrobial potential and cell-penetrating ability of aCPPs against S. aureus, to confirm the relationship between the TI and aCPPs and to identify specific descriptors responsible for aCPPs penetrating ability. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was also performed to confirm the membrane insertion of the most active aCPPs obtained from the QSAR study. The most appropriate pharmacophore was identified to predict the aCPP’s activity. The statistical results confirmed the validity of the model. The QSAR model was successful in identifying the optimal aCPP with high activity prediction and provided insights into the structural requirements to correlate their TI to cell penetrating ability. MD simulation of the best aCPP with 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) bilayer confirmed its interaction with the membrane and the C-terminal residues of the aCPP played a key role in membrane penetration. The strategy of combining QSAR and molecular dynamics, allowed for optimal estimation of ligand-target interaction and confirmed the importance of Trp and Lys in interacting with the POPC bilayer.

description: We consider light scattering by a coated magneto-plasmonic nanoparticle (MPNP) with a Kerr-type nonlinear plasmonic shell and a magneto-optic core. Such structure features two plasmon dipole modes, associated with electronic oscillations on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell. Driven in a nonlinear regime, each mode exhibits a bistable response. Bistability of an inner plasmon leads to switching between this state and a Fano resonance (Fano switching). Once the external light intensity exceeds the critical value, the bistability zones of both eigen modes overlap yielding optical tristability characterized by three stable steady states for a given wavelength and light intensity. We develop a dynamic theory of transitions between nonlinear steady states and estimate the characteristic switching time as short as 0.5 ps. We also show that the magneto-optical (MO) effect allows red- and blue- spectral shift of the Fano profile for right- and left- circular polarizations of the external light, rendering Fano switching sensitive to the light polarization. Specifically, one can reach Fano switching for the right circular polarization while cancelling it for the left circular polarization. Our results point to a novel class of ultrafast Fano switchers tunable by magnetic field for applications in nanophotonics.

 Multi-objective model checking aims to analyze possible trade-offs between quantitative objectives of the modeled system, like the expected time for completing a job or the probability for an error-free behavior within a certain time interval. Previous works analyze MAs under schedulers that minimize (or maximize) a single objective.
 Known approaches do not generalize to multiple possibly conflicting objectives.
 For example, minimizing the expected time for completing a job might require taking higher risks, increasing the likelihood of an error.
 So far, the trade-off analysis between multiple objectives has only been studied for discrete-time models such as Markov decision processes (MDPs).

 In this thesis, we consider combinations of multiple (un)bounded probabilistic and expected value objectives for MAs.
 We lift the transformation from MAs to MDPs utilized in single-objective model checking to the multi-objective case.
 This requires new proofs as we need to consider a broader class of schedulers.
 Existing techniques for multi-objective MDPs are generalized to be compatible with the transformed models.
 Experiments on several case-studies are conducted to indicate the practical applicability of the presented results.

Active Manipulation of Electromagnetically Induced Transparency in a Terahertz Hybrid Metamaterial

description: The metamaterial analogue of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in terahertz (THz) regime holds fascinating prospects for filling the THz gap in various functional devices. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid metamaterial to actively manipulate the resonance strength of EIT effect. By integrating a monolayer graphene into a THz metal metamaterial, an on-to-off modulation of the EIT transparency window is achieved under different Fermi levels of graphene. According to the classical two-particle model and the distributions of the electric field and surface charge density, the physical mechanism is attributable to the recombination effect of conductive graphene. This work reveals a novel manipulation mechanism of EIT resonance in the hybrid metamaterial and offers a new perspective towards designing THz functional devices.

Principal Chiral Field at Large N

description: We present the exact and explicit solution of the principal chiral field in two dimensions for an infinitely large rank group manifold. The energy of the ground state is explicitly found for the external Noether's fields of an arbitrary magnitude. The exact Gell-Mann - Low function exhibits the asymptotic freedom behaviour at large value of the field in agreement with perturbative calculations. Coefficients of the perturbative expansion in the renormalized charge are calculated. They grow factorially with the order showing the presence of renormalons. At small field we found an inverse logarithmic singularity in the ground state energy at the mass gap which indicates that at $N=\infty$ the spectrum of the theory contains extended objects rather then pointlike particles.

New form of the exact NSVZ $β$-function: the three-loop verification for terms containing Yukawa couplings

description: We investigate a recently proposed new form of the exact NSVZ $β$-function, which relates the $β$-function to the anomalous dimensions of the quantum gauge superfield, of the Faddeev--Popov ghosts, and of the chiral matter superfields. Namely, for the general renormalizable ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theory, regularized by higher covariant derivatives, the sum of all three-loop contributions to the $β$-function containing the Yukawa couplings is compared with the corresponding two-loop contributions to the anomalous dimensions of the quantum superfields. It is demonstrated that for the considered terms both new and original forms of the NSVZ relation are valid independently of the subtraction scheme if the renormalization group functions are defined in terms of the bare couplings. This result is obtained from the equality relating the loop integrals, which, in turn, follows from the factorization of the integrals for the $β$-function into integrals of double total derivatives. For the renormalization group functions defined in terms of the renormalized couplings we verify that the NSVZ scheme is obtained with the higher covariant derivative regularization supplemented by the subtraction scheme in which only powers of $\lnΛ/μ$ are included into the renormalization constants.

description: The Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation associated with $s\ell_2$ is considered. The transition functions between asymptotic solutions to the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation are described. A connection between asymptotic solutions and the crystal base in the tensor product of modules over the quantum group $U_qs\ell_2$ is established, in particular, a correspondence between the Bethe vectors of the Gaudin model of an inhomogenious magnetic chain and the $\Bbb Q-$basis of the crystal base.

description: Hopkins proposed an alternative and chirally distinct family of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) models that have antiparallel chains with 5′→3′ senses opposite to those of the right-handed Watson–Crick (WC) family. Termed configuration II, this family of dsDNA models contains both right-handed (II-R) and left-handed (II-L) forms, with Z-DNA as an example of the latter. Relative interstrand binding energies for six DNA duplex models, two each of configuration I-R (standard WC canonical B-DNA), II-R, and II-L for the duplex d(CGCGAATTCGCG), have been estimated under identical conditions using MM-PBSA analysis from molecular dynamics trajectories using three different AMBER force fields. These simulations support the stereo chemical soundness of configuration II dsDNA forms. Recent force fields (Barcelona Supercomputing Center [BSC] [bsc1] and Olomouc 2015 [OL15]) successfully render stable II-L structures, whereas the previous force field, bsc0, generated stable II-R structures, although with an energy difference between II-R and II-L of ∼30 kcal/mol.

description: The Boros-Moll map appears as a subsystem of a Landen transformation associated to certain rational integrals and its dynamics is related to the convergence of them. In the paper, we study the dynamics of a one-parameter family of maps which unfolds the Boros-Moll one, showing that the existence of an unbounded invariant chaotic region in the Boros-Moll map is a peculiar feature within the family. We relate this singularity with a specific property of the critical lines that occurs only for this special case. In particular, we explain how the unbounded chaotic region in the Boros-Moll map appears. Special attention is devoted to explain the main contact/homoclinic bifurcations that occur in the family. We also report some other bifurcation phenomena that appear in the considered unfolding.

description: Die Bedingung fachspezifischer FDM-Bedarfe in den Geisteswissenschaften übernehmen u.a. die Mitgliedsinstitutionen der DHd-AG Datenzentren. Die 2014 gegründete AG versteht sich dabei als offenes Forum, um Herausforderungen im geisteswissenschaftlichen Forschungsdatenmanagement gemeinsam zu adressieren. Die Arbeitsgruppe besteht aus insgesamt 28 Datenzentren und Interessensvertreter*innen, von denen 16 Einrichtungen über FDM-Servicestrukturen verfügen. Um die Sichtbarkeit und Erreichbarkeit einzelner Datenzentren der AG und ihrer FDM-Services zu verbessern, hat die Arbeitsgruppe einen gemeinsamen Dienstekatalog entwickelt, der als durchsuchbare Website verfügbar gemacht wurde. Für die Erstellung des Katalogs wurden ausführliche Telefoninterviews mit Vertreter*innen aller AG-Mitgliedsinstitutionen geführt, die über FDM-Servicestrukturen verfügen. Die Interviews wurden nach diesem Gesprächsleitfaden strukturiert, der sich wiederum an einer zuvor durchgeführten Online-Selbstauskunft innerhalb der AG orientiert. Der Leitfaden besteht aus 57 Fragen, die in zwei Kernbereiche unterteilt sind: Der erste Fragenkomplex zum Profil der Datenzentren behandelt unter anderem die institutionelle Anbindung der Datenzentren sowie Kooperationen und Zukunftsperspektiven. Der zweite Fragenkomplex Dienstleistungen der Datenzentren bezieht sich auf konkrete Services und Angebotsstrukturen.
