description: Atherosclerosis is a disease in blood vessels that often results in plaque formation and lumen narrowing. It is an inflammatory response of the tissue caused by disruptions in the vessel wall nourishment. Blood vessels are nourished by nutrients originating from the blood of the lumen. In medium-sized and larger vessels, nutrients are additionally provided from outside through a network of capillaries called vasa vasorum. It has recently been hypothesized (Haverich in Circulation 135:205–207, 2017) that the root of atherosclerotic diseases is the malfunction of the vasa vasorum. This, so-called outside-in theory, is supported by a recently developed numerical model (Soleimani et al. in Arch Comput Methods Eng 28:4263–4282, 2021) accounting for the inflammation initiation in the adventitial layer of the blood vessel. Building on the previous findings, this work proposes an extended material model for atherosclerosis formation that is based on the outside-in theory. Beside the description of growth kinematics and nutrient diffusion, the roles of monocytes, macrophages, foam cells, smooth muscle cells and collagen are accounted for in a nonlinear continuum mechanics framework. Cells are activated due to a lack of vessel wall nourishment and proliferate, migrate, differentiate and synthesize collagen, leading to the formation of a plaque. Numerical studies show that the onset of atherosclerosis can qualitatively be reproduced and back the new theory.

description: Biofilm formation is a major challenge in various areas such as healthcare, water treatment and manufacturing, contributing to persistent infections and equipment damage. Zwitterionic surface modifications, especially poly(N-oxides), are becoming increasingly important in this context due to their excellent hydration properties, which make them effective against microbial adhesion. Conventional methods for introducing poly(N-oxides) on surfaces involve the oxidation of tertiary amine-functionalized polymers with H2O2, a cost-efficient but potentially problematic approach due to residual H2O2 on the surface. This residual H2O2 can misrepresent the surface's true bioactivity, suggesting antibacterial properties that are not inherent to poly(N-oxides). In this work, a highly sensitive dye-based assay was employed to quantify the release kinetics of H2O2 from N-oxide post-modified polyethylene (nonpolar) and polyamide (polar). Substantial H2O2 release was observed from both materials over 24 hours, with polyethylene releasing quantities four orders of magnitude greater than solvent-accessible N-oxides. These findings highlight the potential of residual H2O2 to distort biological assay outcomes. To overcome these limitations, a direct polymerization approach for N-(4-vinylbenzyl)-N,N-dimethyl-N-oxide was developed, eliminating the need for post-modification with H2O2. This method employed plasma-activation of the polymer substrate, styrene as a polymerizable unit, and a crosslinker to achieve stable hydrophilic modifications even on highly hydrophobic substrates like polyethylene. Microbiological testing with S. aureus and E. coli confirmed that N-oxide modified surfaces exhibited solely antiadhesive properties without bactericidal activity. This study establishes a method for the polymerization of N-(4-vinylbenzyl)-N,N-dimethyl-N-oxide on polyethylene and polyamide base materials and highlights the pitfalls of H2O2 impurifications on poly(N-oxide) brush layers prepared by other synthetic protocols.

We further generalize and refine this result in the cases when both $B$ and $C$ can be chosen to be invertible, cyclic, or split semisimple, when $k$ is coprime to $p$, or when $m$ is sufficiently large. We also give a criterion for the Waring problem in terms of stabilizers.

description: Cubic (zinc-blende) Ga1-xMnxN layers were grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs (001) substrates. Some of the structures also contained cubic AlN buffer layers. Auger Electron Spectroscopy and Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy studies clearly confirmed the incorporation of Mn into cubic GaN, the Mn being uniformly distributed through the layer. X-ray diffraction studies demonstrated that the Mn-doped GaN films are cubic and do not show phase separation up to a Mn concentrations of x<0.1. P-type conductivity for the cubic Ga1-xMnxN layers was observed for a wide range of the Mn doping levels. The measured hole concentration at room temperature depends non-linearly on the Mn incorporation and varies from 3x10^16 to 5x10^18 cm-3.

description: Dynamical decoupling is effective in reducing gate errors in most quantum computation platforms and is therefore projected to play an essential role in future fault-tolerant constructions. In superconducting circuits, however, it has proven difficult to utilize the benefits of dynamical decoupling. In this work, we present a theoretical proposal that incorporates a continuous version of dynamical decoupling, namely spin locking, with a coupler-based CZ gate for transmons and provide analytical and numerical results that demonstrate its effectiveness.

description: Recent experiments have created supersolids of dipolar quantum droplets. The resulting crystals lack, however, a genuine cohesive energy and are maintained by the presence of an external confinement, bearing a resemblance to the case of ion Coulomb crystals. We show that a mixture of two antiparallel dipolar condensates allows for the creation of potentially large, self-bound crystals, which, resembling ionic crystals in solid-state physics, are maintained by the mutual dipolar attraction between the components, with no need of transversal confinement. This opens intriguing possibilities, including three-dimensionally self-bound droplet-ring structures, stripe/labyrinthic patterns, and self-bound crystals of droplets surrounded by an interstitial superfluid, resembling the case of superfluid Helium in porous media.

description: Conceptual understanding of representations and fluency in using representations are important aspects of expertise. However, little is known about how these competencies interact: does representational understanding facilitate learning of fluency (understandingfirst hypothesis), or does fluency enhance learning of representational understanding (fluency-first hypothesis)? We analyze log data obtained from an experiment that investigates the effects of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) support for understanding and fluency in connection-making between fractions representations. The experiment shows that instructional support for both representational understanding and fluency are needed for students to benefit from the ITS. In analyzing the ITS log data, we contrast the understanding-first hypothesis and the fluency-first hypothesis, testing whether errors made during the learning phase mediate the effect of experimental condition. Finding that a simple statistical model does not the fit data, we searched over all plausible causal path analysis models. Our results support the understanding-first hypothesis but not the fluency-first hypothesis.

description: Squeezed light is injected into the dark port of gravitational wave interferometers, in order to reduce the quantum noise. A fraction of the interferometer output light can reach the OPO due to sub-optimal isolation of the squeezing injection path. This backscattered light interacts with squeezed light generation process, introducing additional measurement noise. We present a theoretical description of the noise coupling mechanism and we prove the model with experimental results. We propose a control scheme to achieve a de-amplification of the backscattered light inside the OPO with a consequent reduction of the noise caused by it. The scheme was implemented at the GEO 600 detector and has proven to be crucial in maintaining a good level of quantum noise reduction of the interferometer for high parametric gain of the OPO. In particular, the mitigation of the backscattered light noise helped in reaching 6 dB of quantum noise reduction [Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 041102 (2021)]. We show that the impact of backscattered-light-induced noise on the squeezing performance is phenomenologically equivalent to increased phase noise of the squeezing angle control. The results discussed in this paper provide a way for a more accurate estimation of the residual phase noise of the squeezed light field. Finally, the knowledge of the backscattered light noise coupling mechanism is a useful tool to inform the design of the squeezing injection path in terms of path stability and optical isolation.
Relativistic Localizing Processes Bespeak an Inevitable Projective Geometry of Spacetime

Year: 2017

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Surprisingly, the issue of events localization in spacetime is poorly understood and a fortiori realized even in the context of Einstein's relativity. Accordingly, a comparison between observational data and theoretical expectations might then be strongly compromised. In the present paper, we give the principles of relativistic localizing systems so as to bypass this issue. Such systems will allow to locate users endowed with receivers and, in addition, to localize any spacetime event. These localizing systems are made up of relativistic auto-locating positioning sub-systems supplemented by an extra satellite. They indicate that spacetime must be supplied everywhere with an unexpected local four dimensional projective structure besides the well-known three dimensional relativistic projective one. As a result, the spacetime manifold can be seen as a generalized Cartan space modeled on a four dimensional real projective space, i.e., a spacetime with both a local four dimensional projective structure and a compatible (pseudo-)Riemannian structure. Localization protocols are presented in details, while possible applications to astrophysics are also considered.

description: The optical properties of metallic nanoparticles are most often considered in terms of plasmons, the coupled states of light and quasifree electrons. Confinement of electrons inside the nanostructure leads to another, very different type of resonances. We demonstrate that these confinement-induced resonances typically join into a single composite "super-resonance,"located at significantly lower frequencies than the plasmonic resonance. This super-resonance influences the optical properties in the low-frequency range, in particular, producing giant nonlinearities. We show that such nonlinearities can be used for efficient down-conversion from optical to terahertz and midinfrared frequencies on the submicrometer propagation distances in nanocomposites. We discuss the interaction of the quantum-confinement-induced super-resonance with the conventional plasmonic ones, as well as the unusual quantum level statistics, adapting here the paradigms of the quantum billiard theory and showing the possibility to control the resonance position and width using the geometry of the nanostructures.

description: The many-body states in an extended Fermionic Molecular Dynamics approach are flexible enough to allow the description of nuclei with shell model nature as well as nuclei with cluster and halo structures. Different many-body configurations are obtained by minimizing the energy under constraints on collective variables like radius, dipole, quadrupole and octupole deformations. In the sense of the Generator Coordinate Method we perform variation after projection and multiconfiguration calculations. The same effective interaction derived from realistic interactions by means of the Unitary Correlation Operator Method is used for all nuclei. Aspects of the shell model and cluster nature of the ground and excited states of C12 are discussed. To understand energies and radii of neutron-rich He isotopes the soft-dipole mode is found to be important.

description: Matrix configurations define noncommutative spaces endowed with extra structure including a generalized Laplace operator, and hence a metric structure. Made dynamical via matrix models, they describe rich physical systems including noncommutative gauge theory and emergent gravity. Refining the construction in [1], we construct a semi-classical limit through an immersed submanifold of complex projective space based on quasi-coherent states. We observe the phenomenon of oxidation, where the resulting semi-classical space acquires spurious extra dimensions. We propose to remove this artifact by passing to a leaf of a carefully chosen foliation, which allows to extract the geometrical content of the noncommutative spaces. This is demonstrated numerically via multiple examples.
Half-filled stripe to N$\acute e$el antiferromagnetism transition in the $t'$-Hubbard model on honeycomb lattice

description: We study the ground state of the doped Hubbard model on honeycomb lattice with both nearest ($t$) and next-nearest neighboring hoppings ($t'$) in the small doping and strongly interacting region. Previous study on the model without $t'$ showed the ground state is a half-filled stripe. We employ density matrix renormalization group and extrapolate the results with truncation errors in the converged region. In the $t' < 0$ side, we find the half-filled stripe phase at $t' = 0$ is stable against the frustration of $t'$ until a critical point $-0.4 < t'_c < -0.3$, beyond which the ground state switches to anti-ferromagnetic N$\acute e$el phase with charge modulation. With further increase of $t'$ to $-0.7$, the ground state becomes paramagnetic. In the $t' > 0$ side, the half-filled stripe stretches to $t' \approx 0.7$. We don't find obvious enhancement of pairing for the range of $t'$ studied. We study width-4 cylinders in this work but the results for spin, charge, and pairing correlation agree qualitatively for periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions in the half-filled stripe and anti-ferromagnetic N$\acute e$el phases, suggesting the results are likely to be representative for true two-dimensional systems. The half-filled stripe to anti-ferromagnetic N$\acute e$el phase transition can be realized on real materials or ultra-cold atom platform.

description: The display of proteins at the bacterial cell surface has appealing benefits for the analysis of binding partner, screening applications and whole cell biocatalysis. Here, a plasmid library is presented for the surface display of proteins, to be used by experts and non-experts, including a simple, but powerful option for optimization. Based on a classical (EhaA) autotransporter protein, variants were constructed with four different signal peptides (including adjacent region) and six different linkers. The variants were set under control of a rhaBAD promoter, resulting in a library of 24 plasmids named Autodisplay-ToolBox (ATB). For proof of concept, a β-glucosidase (β-Gluc) as model passenger was subjected to combinatorial permutation using the plasmids of the ATB (pATB) with subsequent pATB library screening. The best combination based on enzymatic activity was pATB_45-β-Gluc with an OprF signal peptide, an adjacent C-terminal spacer (GGGDDNAAPA), and a comparably short linker (ΔepitopeΔβ1). Its activity was 4.9-fold increased compared to the initial construct. The ATB can be extended by two promoters (PRox306, ParaBAD) and by variants of an inverse AT (YeeJ), to optimally control the expression strength and to enable inversed protein display, respectively. Besides using the whole pATB library, individual plasmids can be ordered from addgene for custom-made surface display.
Isotropic-nematic transition in hard-rod fluids: relation between continuous and restricted-orientation models

description: We explore models of hard-rod fluids with a finite number of allowed orientations, and construct their bulk phase diagrams within Onsager's second virial theory. For a one-component fluid, we show that the discretization of the orientations leads to the existence of an artificial (almost) perfectly aligned nematic phase, which coexists with the (physical) nematic phase if the number of orientations is sufficiently large, or with the isotropic phase if the number of orientations is small. Its appearance correlates with the accuracy of sampling the nematic orientation distribution within its typical opening angle. For a binary mixture this artificial phase also exists, and a much larger number of orientations is required to shift it to such high densities that it does not interfere with the physical part of the phase diagram.

description: Angiogenesis is the creation of blood-vessels from pre-existing ones. In multiple pathologies, such as cancer or chronic inflammation, angiogenesis contributes to the progression of the underlying condition. While therapies have been developed and applied, their efficacy is still not adequate, especially in the treatment of aberrant angiogenesis in inflammation-related diseases. C81 is a derivative of the alkaloid annomontine and impedes inflammatory processes in the endothelium. Accordingly, the initial aim of this project was to evaluate, whether C81 also impairs angiogenesis, and thus possesses a dual mechanism. Moreover, C81 inhibits the kinases DYRK1B, DYRK2, PIM3, and the splicing kinases CLK1-4. Therefore, a further aim was to relate the targeted proteins to the effects of C81. Indeed, in an in vivo laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV) model we observed that C81 potently reduced angiogenic activation of the endothelium. Functionally, this was caused by C81 reducing the VEGF-induced angiogenic activity of endothelial cells (ECs), which was derived from decreased VEGFR2 expression. To find the responsible targets, we used inhibitors of the addressed kinases and observed that only CLK inhibition phenocopied the C81-derived effects in ECs. Moreover, knockdowns of the individual CLK isoforms were also able to phenocopy C81-derived effects on VEGFR2 expression, proving the involvement of these kinases. When investigating the mechanism, RNA-seq revealed that CLK inhibition does not alter the splicing of VEGFR2. However, a following GO-term analysis and reporter gene assay confirmed that CLK inhibitors are potent inhibitors of β-catenin activity, a pathway that is known to induce VEGFR2 expression and angiogenesis. Finally, the relevance of this pathway was confirmed through activation of β-catenin signaling, which increased VEGFR2 expression, while a knockdown of β-catenin decreased VEGFR2 expression.

description: The space and time configurations of the dissociation of $^8$He into $^6$He+$n$+$n$, on C and Pb targets, have been explored simultaneously for the first time. The final-state interactions in the $n$-$n$ and $^6$He-$n$ channels are successfully described within a model that considers independent emission of neutrons from a Gaussian volume with a given lifetime. The dissociation on C target exhibits a dominant sequential decay through the ground state of $^7$He, consistent with neutrons being emitted from a Gaussian volume of $r_{nn}^{\rm{rms}}=7.3\pm0.6$~fm with a $n$-$n$ delay in the sequential channel of $1400\pm400$~fm/$c$, in agreement with the lifetime of $^7$He. The lower-statistics data on Pb target correspond mainly to direct breakup, and are well described using the $n$-$n$ volume measured, without any $n$-$n$ delay. The validity of the phenomenological model used is discussed.

Almost spanning distance trees in subsets of finite vector spaces

description: For $d\ge 2$ and an odd prime power $q$, consider the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^d$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where the distance between two points $(x_1,\ldots,x_d)$ and $(y_1,\ldots,y_d)$ is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^d (x_i-y_i)^2$. A distance graph is a graph associated with a non-zero distance to each of its edges. We show that large subsets of vector spaces over finite fields contain every nearly spanning distance tree with bounded degree in each distance. This quantitatively improves results by Bennett, Chapman, Covert, Hart, Iosevich, and Pakianathan on finding distance paths, and results by Pham, Senger, Tait, and Thu on finding distance trees. A key ingredient in proving our main result is to obtain a colorful generalization of a classical result of Haxell about finding nearly spanning bounded-degree trees in an expander.
Disoriented isospin condensates may be the source of anomalous kaon correlations measured in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76$ TeV

description: The magnitude of fluctuations between charged and neutral kaons measured by the ALICE Collaboration in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC exceeds conventional explanation. Here it is shown that if the scalar condensate, which is typically associated with chiral symmetry, is accompanied by an isospin=1 field, then the combination can produce large fluctuations where $\langle \bar{u}u\rangle \ne \langle \bar{d}d\rangle$. Hadronizing strange and anti-strange quarks might then strongly fluctuate between charged ($u\bar{s}$ or $s\bar{u}$) and neutral ($d\bar{s}$ or $s\bar{d}$) kaons.

description: Recent studies of nearby spiral galaxies suggest that photodissociation regions (PDRs) are capable of producing much of the observed HI in galaxy disks. In that case, measurements of the HI column density and the far-ultraviolet (FUV) photon flux provide a new probe of the volume density of the local underlying H_2. We develop the method and apply it to the giant Scd spiral M101 (NGC 5457). We find that, after correction for the best-estimate gradient of metallicity in the ISM of M101 and for the extinction of the ultraviolet emission, molecular gas with a narrow range of density from 30-1000 cm^-3 is found near star- forming regions at all radii in the disk of M101 out to a distance of 12' (approximately 26 kpc), close to the photometric limit of R_25 = 13.5'. In this picture, the ISM is virtually all molecular in the inner parts of M101. The strong decrease of the HI column density in the inner disk of the galaxy at R_G < 10 kpc is a consequence of a strong increase in the dust-to-gas ratio there, resulting in an increase of the H_2 formation rate on grains and a corresponding disappearance of hydrogen in its atomic form.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Supersymmetric higher-derivative actions in ten and eleven dimensions, the associated superalgebras and their formulation in superspace

description: Higher-derivative terms in the string and M-theory effective actions are strongly constrained by supersymmetry. Using a mixture of techniques, involving both string amplitude calculations and an analysis of supersymmetry requirements, we determine the supersymmetric completion of the R^4 action in eleven dimensions to second order in the fermions, in a form compact enough for explicit further calculations. Using these results, we obtain the modifications to the field transformation rules and determine the resulting field-dependent modifications to the coefficients in the supersymmetry algebra. We then make the link to the superspace formulation of the theory and discuss the mechanism by which higher-derivative interactions lead to modifications to the supertorsion constraints. For the particular interactions under discussion we find that no such modifications are induced.

description: Results from the TinyML community demonstrate that, it is possible to execute machine learning models directly on the terminals themselves, even if these are small microcontroller-based devices. However, to date, practitioners in the domain lack convenient all-in-one toolkits to help them evaluate the feasibility of executing arbitrary models on arbitrary low-power IoT hardware. To this effect, we present in this paper U-TOE, a universal toolkit we designed to facilitate the task of IoT designers and researchers, by combining functionalities from a low-power embedded OS, a generic model transpiler and compiler, an integrated performance measurement module, and an open-access remote IoT testbed. We provide an open source implementation of U-TOE and we demonstrate its use to experimentally evaluate the performance of various models, on a wide variety of low-power IoT boards, based on popular microcontroller architectures. U-TOE allows easily reproducible and customizable comparative evaluation experiments on a wide variety of IoT hardware all-at-once. The availability of a toolkit such as U-TOE is desirable to accelerate research combining Artificial Intelligence and IoT towards fully exploiting the potential of edge computing.

description: We calculate the muon capture rate on the deuteron to next-to-next-to-leading order in the pionless effective field theory. The result can be used to constrain the two-nucleon isovector axial coupling L_{1,A} to +/- 2 fm^3 if the muon capture rate is measured to 2% level. From this, one can determine the neutrino-deuteron break up reactions and the pp-fusion cross section in the sun to a same level of accuracy.

Discovering cyclic causal structure

description: Abstract: "This paper is concerned with the problem of making causal inferences from observational data, when the underlying causal structure may involve feedback loops. In particular, making causal inferences under the assumption that the causal system which generated the data is linear and that there are no unmeasured common causes (latent variables). Linear causal structures of this type can be represented by non-recursive linear structural equation models. I present a correct polynomial time (on sparse graphs) discovery algorithm for linear cyclic models that contain no latent variables. This algorithm outputs a representation of a class of non-recursive linear structural equation models, given observational data as input. Under the assumption that all conditional independencies found in the observational data are true for structural reasons rather than because of particular parameter values, the algorithm discovers causal features of the structure which generated the data. A simple modification of the algorithm can be used as a decision procedure (whose runtime is polynomial in the number of vertices) for determining when two directed graphs (cyclic or acyclic) entail the same set of conditional independence relations. After proving that the algorithm is correct I then show that it is also complete in the sense that if two linear structural equation models are used as conditional independence 'oracles' for the discovery algorithm, then the algorithm will give the same output only if every conditional independence entailed by one model is entailed by the other and vice versa. Another way of saying this is that the algorithm can be used as a decision procedure for determining Markov equivalence of directed cyclic graphs; if the conditional independencies associated with two cyclic graphs result in the same output from the algorithm, when used as input, then the two graphs are equivalent."
