description: Introduzione L'olio extravergine di oliva (EVOO) è un alimento essenziale della dieta mediterranea (MD) e alcuni paesi dell'area mediterranea come Italia, Spagna e Grecia rappresentano i maggiori e più importanti produttori in tutto il mondo. In un’area geografica del sud Italia e precisamente in tutto l’agro del nord-barese della Puglia, viene prodotto un particolare tipo di olio extravergine d’oliva dalla cultivar “Coratina” caratterizzata dalla presenza di un alto contenuto in polifenoli, il più alto rispetto ad altre cultivar (1) e molto ricco di biocomposti. Fin dal secolo scorso, era consuetudine per gli abitanti della zona utilizzarlo per la cura di varie patologie: ustioni, traumi, cheiliti e processi infiammatori di varia natura. Con il tempo, questa pratica è andata via via scomparendo e quasi dimenticata. Negli ultimi decenni sono stati pubblicati numerosi studi che hanno documentato come la maggior parte degli effetti benefici della dieta mediterranea nella promozione della salute umana, può essere attribuita al consumo di olio extravergine di oliva(EVOO) (2). Il consumo di olio extravergine d'oliva è in grado di ridurre l'ossidazione lipidica e del DNA, migliorare il profilo lipidico e l'insulino-resistenza, la disfunzione endoteliale, l'infiammazione, ridurre la pressione sanguigna nei pazienti ipertesi e modificare la risposta delle difese immunitarie (3, 4). Nonostante il suo vasto utilizzo e sebbene numerosi studi sull'olio extravergine di oliva abbiano dimostrato la sua notevole efficacia nella guarigione delle ustioni della cute (5,6,7), delle piaghe da decubito (8) e delle ferite del piede nel paziente diabetico (9), nessuno studio scientifico è stato proposto per la terapia delle ulcere traumatiche nel cavo orale. In questo case-report abbiamo deciso di utilizzare l’EVOO come presidio terapeutico nel trattamento delle lesioni della mucosa orale in una paziente portatrice di protesi su impianti. Parole chiave: olio extravergine di oliva, polifenoli, cultivar Coratina, ulcere traumatiche.

description: Resource theory of imaginarity provides a useful framework to understand the role of complex numbers, which are essential in the formulation of quantum mechanics, in a mathematically rigorous way. In the first part of this article, we study the properties of ``real'' (quantum) operations both in single-party and bipartite settings. As a consequence, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for state transformations under real operations and show the existence of ``real entanglement'' monotones. In the second part of this article, we focus on the problem of single copy state transformation via real quantum operations. When starting from pure initial states, we completely solve this problem by finding an analytical expression for the optimal fidelity of transformation, for a given probability of transformation and vice versa. Moreover, for state transformations involving arbitrary initial states and pure final states, we provide a semidefinite program to compute the optimal achievable fidelity, for a given probability of transformation.

description: 360$^\circ$ panoramas are extensively utilized as environmental light sources in computer graphics. However, capturing a 360$^\circ$ $\times$ 180$^\circ$ panorama poses challenges due to the necessity of specialized and costly equipment, and additional human resources. Prior studies develop various learning-based generative methods to synthesize panoramas from a single Narrow Field-of-View (NFoV) image, but they are limited in alterable input patterns, generation quality, and controllability. To address these issues, we propose a novel pipeline called PanoDiff, which efficiently generates complete 360$^\circ$ panoramas using one or more unregistered NFoV images captured from arbitrary angles. Our approach has two primary components to overcome the limitations. Firstly, a two-stage angle prediction module to handle various numbers of NFoV inputs. Secondly, a novel latent diffusion-based panorama generation model uses incomplete panorama and text prompts as control signals and utilizes several geometric augmentation schemes to ensure geometric properties in generated panoramas. Experiments show that PanoDiff achieves state-of-the-art panoramic generation quality and high controllability, making it suitable for applications such as content editing.

description: We study the conditions required to make the 2HDM scalar potential stable up to the Planck scale. The lightest CP-even scalar is assumed to have been found at the LHC and the {\em alignment limit} is imposed in view of the LHC Higgs data. We find that ensuring stability up to scales $\gtrsim 10^{10}$~GeV necessitates the introduction of a soft breaking parameter in the theory. Even then, some interesting correlations between the nonstandard masses and the soft breaking parameter need to be satisfied. Consequently, a 2HDM becomes completely determined by only two nonstandard parameters, namely, $\tb$ and a mass parameter, $m_0$, with $\tb \gtrsim 3$. These observations make a 2HDM, in the {\em stable alignment limit}, more predictive than ever.

Dynamics and order in graphene-based systems
Creators: name: Klug, Markus Johannes
Publisher: name: Karlsruhe
Year: 2020

description: The dynamics of out-of-time order correlators is studied in strongly correlated electron systems. This certain type of correlation function is a measure for the process of quantum information scrambling which is linked to the fundamental processes of entanglement growth and thermalization in quantum systems. Particularly interesting are quantum chaotic systems where the scrambling rate specifies the exponential growth of out-of-time order correlators. Whereas the scrambling rate is well defined theoretically, its interpretation in a physical context is still under debate. Furthermore, its role for physical effects and quantities which can be measured in experiments is little understood and deserves further investigation. In the first part of this work, scrambling rates are determined analytically and are analyzed for interacting electrons in graphene and electrons in a disordered metal coupled to a dissipative bath of phonons. A resemblance between the scrambling rate and the single-particle scattering rates is observed. In addition, a proposed link between quantum chaotic dynamics of out-of-time order correlators and the dynamics of fluctuations of observables is investigated. This principle could be used to determine scrambling rates in experiments. Subsequently, possible electron orders are investigated in the system of small-angle twisted-bilayer graphene in the second part of this work. Here, the interplay between the moiré interference pattern and the interlayer hybridization due to a finite interlayer tunneling of electrons causes the bandwidth of the so-called moiré bands to depend on the twist-angle. For twist-angles in the vicinity of the magic-angle, interaction effects are strongly enhanced and a series of strong correlation effects is expected. A minimal low-energy model of interacting electrons is derived where relevant electron-electron interaction processes are identified. This model is analyzed with respect to possible electronic ground states as a function of the twist-angle. A tendency towards a formation of nematic states is observed in a weak-coupling regime, whereas various Mott-insulating states are found for strong couplings.

description: Research into those at clinical high-risk (CHR) of psychosis is steadily increasing. Since these young people are difficult to find, and at times difficult to retain in longitudinal studies that often require lengthy clinical and biomarker assessments, drop-outs are not uncommon. For example, in the EPOS study 25.6% of participants were lost to follow-up over an 18-month follow-up (Ruhrmann et al., 2010). Since a major aim of CHR research is to understand more about the development of psychosis, it is important to know whether those who dropout do so with increased symptoms and are potentially more likely to be later converters, or if they dropout because of a remission of their attenuated symptoms.

description: We highlight certain key achievements in experimental work on molecular, colloidal and granular glassformers. This short review considers these three classes of experimental systems and focusses largely on the work of the authors and their coworkers and thus is far from exhaustive. Our goal is rather to discuss particular experimental results from these classes and to explore universality and specificity across the broad range of length- and time-scales they span. We emphasize that a variety of phenomena, not least dynamical heterogeneity, growing lengthscales and a change in structure, albeit subtle, are now well established in these three classes of glassformer. We then review some experimental measurements which depend more specifically on the class of glassformer, such as the Gardner transition and some which have been investigated more in one or two classes than in all, such as configurational entropy and evidence for a dynamical phase transition. We finally put forward some open questions and consider what could be done to fill some of the gaps between theoretical approaches and experiments.

description: When communication and education being interwoven, this study sought to generate an abstract theoretical understanding of the communication processes emerging from an educational experience. Specifically, this constructivist grounded theory was guided by the question "How do participants experience the Bahay-bahayan theater as play?" in the context of the immersive play "Pailah: Ugay ng Lipi." Immersing in the peformance space together with the research participants, and doing successive levels of comparative analysis, the following social processes emerged - pagpapasigla (activating), pagtatauli (reacting), pagmamasid (observing), paggaya (imitating), pagsubok (testing), paglubog (immersing), pagtugon (responding), pagsasakatawan (embodying), pag-angkin (owning), and pagpapadayon (lingering). These processes are mutually supportive and constitutive. It was revealed that meaning-making is very much influenced by, and in turn, influences cultural contexts and behaviours, as the participants go back and forth these processes. The Wari at Yari: Proseso ng Pakikipag-dayalogo (Discern and Design: Process of Reflexing Dialogue) is therefore forwarded as a middle range theory describing creative processes of making sense of communication contexts and transforming these through playing, replaying, and re-playing possibilites, actions, and reflections. Permeating the entire play experience are pakikiramdam (sensing) and pagbabanyuhay (transforming). How each process is placed in the infinity model represents the processual and intuitive nature of theater as play. The model has important implications for the design of learning experiences anchored not only on outcomes, but also on playful dialogic interactions. Further research may look into the experiences of the audience-players since this study privileged the voices of the actor-players.

description: Any quantum program on a realistic quantum device must be compiled into an executable form while taking into account the underlying hardware constraints. Stringent restrictions on architecture and control imposed by physical platforms make this very challenging. In this paper, based on the quantum variational algorithm, we propose a novel scheme to train an Ansatz circuit and realize high-fidelity compilation of a set of universal quantum gates for singlet-triplet qubits in semiconductor double quantum dots, a fairly heavily constrained system. Furthermore, we propose a scalable architecture for a modular implementation of quantum programs in this constrained systems and validate its performance with two representative demonstrations, Grover's algorithm for the database searching (static compilation) and a variant of variational quantum eigensolver for the Max-Cut optimization (dynamic compilation). Our methods are potentially applicable to a wide range of physical devices. This work constitutes an important stepping-stone for exploiting the potential for advanced and complicated quantum algorithms on near-term devices.

description: In a world in which many pressing global issues require large scale cooperation, understanding the group size effect on cooperative behavior is a topic of central importance. Yet, the nature of this effect remains largely unknown, with lab experiments insisting that it is either positive or negative or null, and field experiments suggesting that it is instead curvilinear. Here we shed light on this apparent contradiction by considering a novel class of public goods games inspired to the realistic scenario in which the natural output limits of the public good imply that the benefit of cooperation increases fast for early contributions and then decelerates. We report on a large lab experiment providing evidence that, in this case, group size has a curvilinear effect on cooperation, according to which intermediate-size groups cooperate more than smaller groups and more than larger groups. In doing so, our findings help fill the gap between lab experiments and field experiments and suggest concrete ways to promote large scale cooperation among people.

description: As we enter the era of TESS and JWST, instrumentation that can carry out radial velocity measurements of exoplanet systems is in high demand. We will address this demand by upgrading the UC Lick Observatory's 2.4-meter Automated Planet Finder (APF) telescope with an adaptive optics (AO) system. The AO upgrade will be directly integrated into the APF telescope by replacing the telescope's static secondary mirror with a 61-actuator adaptive secondary mirror (ASM) to minimize the disturbance to the spectrograph optics. This upgrade is enabled by The Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research's (TNO) large-format deformable mirror technology, which will be constructed using a new style of high-efficiency hybrid-variable reluctance actuator. We outline the technical design and manufacturing plan for the proposed APF AO upgrade and simulate the improvement to the science yield using HCIpy. Our simulations predict the AO upgrade will reduce the PSF instabilities due to atmospheric turbulence, concentrating the light on the spectrograph slit by a multiplicative factor of more than two (doubling the telescope's observing efficiency) for targets as dim as I = 14. When completed, the APF adaptive secondary mirror will be among the first pairings of an ASM with a radial velocity spectrograph and become a pathfinder for similar AO systems in telescopes of all sizes.

description: A band-projection formalism is developed for calculating the superfluid weight in two-dimensional multi-orbital superconductors with an orbital-dependent pairing. It is discovered that, in this case, the band geometric superfluid stiffness tensor can be locally non-positive-definite in some regions of the Brillouin zone. When these regions are large enough or include nodal singularities, the total superfluid weight becomes non-positive-definite due to pairing fluctuations, resulting in the transition of a BCS state to a pair-density wave (PDW). This geometric BCS-PDW transition is studied in the context of two-orbital superconductors, and proof of the existence of a geometric BCS-PDW transition in a generic topological flat band is established.

description: Depressed mood appears to be highly prevalent in clinical high risk (CHR) samples. However, many prior CHR studies utilize modest size samples and do not report on the specific impact of depression on CHR symptoms. The aim of the current paper is to investigate the prevalence of depressive disorders and the impact of lifetime depression on baseline clinical presentation and longitudinal outcomes in a large cohort of individuals meeting CHR criteria in the second phase of the North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study (NAPLS-2). Depression was assessed both categorically (via DSM-IV-TR diagnoses) and symptomatically (using a clinician-rated scale of depressive symptoms) within a sample of 764 individuals at CHR and 279 controls. Current and lifetime depressive disorders were highly prevalent (60%) in this sample. Depression diagnoses were associated with more pronounced negative and general symptoms; individuals with remitted depression had significantly less severe negative, disorganized, and general symptoms and better social and role functioning relative to those with current depression. Current mood disturbance, as measured by scores on a clinician-rated symptom scale, contributed beyond the impact of positive and negative symptoms to impairments in social functioning. Both symptomatic and diagnostic baseline depression was significantly associated with decreased likelihood of remission from CHR status; however depression did not differentially distinguish persistent CHR status from transition to psychosis at follow-up. These findings suggest that depressed mood may function as a marker of poor prognosis in CHR, yet effective treatment of depression within this population can yield improvements in symptoms and functioning.

description: Many real-world networks exhibit correlations between the node degrees. For instance, in social networks nodes tend to connect to nodes of similar degree. Conversely, in biological and technological networks, high-degree nodes tend to be linked with low-degree nodes. Degree correlations also affect the dynamics of processes supported by a network structure, such as the spread of opinions or epidemics. The proper modelling of these systems, i.e., without uncontrolled biases, requires the sampling of networks with a specified set of constraints. We present a solution to the sampling problem when the constraints imposed are the degree correlations. In particular, we develop an efficient and exact method to construct and sample graphs with a specified joint-degree matrix, which is a matrix providing the number of edges between all the sets of nodes of a given degree, for all degrees, thus completely specifying all pairwise degree correlations, and additionally, the degree sequence itself. Our algorithm always produces independent samples without backtracking. The complexity of the graph construction algorithm is O(NM) where N is the number of nodes and M is the number of edges.

description: A beam splitter (BS) is one of the most critical building blocks in optical systems. Despite various attempts of flat-type BSs to miniaturize the conventional cube BS reported, it remains a challenge to realize an ultrathin optical BS with multi-port output, non-uniform splitting ratio and steerable outgoing directions. Herein, we have demonstrated a free-space optical multi-port beam splitter (MPBS) based on a polarization-independent all-dielectric metasurface. By applying an optimized phase-pattern paradigm via a gradient-descent-based iterative algorithm to amorphous silicon (a-Si) metasurfaces, we have prepared a variety of MPBS samples with arbitrarily predetermined output port number (2~7), power ratio and spatial distribution of output beams. The experimental results reveal that the fabricated MPBSs could achieve high total splitting efficiency (TSE, above 74.7%) and beam-splitting fidelity (similarity, above 78.4%) within the bandwidth of 100 nm (1500~1600 nm). We envision that such MPBS could provide fabulous flexibility for optical integrated system and diverse applications.

description: Motivated by recent results of Tao-Ziegler [Discrete Anal. 2016] and Greenfeld-Tao (2022 preprint) on concatenating affine-linear functions along subgroups of an abelian group, we show three results on recovering affine-linearity of functions $f : V \to W$ from their restrictions to affine lines, where $V,W$ are $\mathbb{F}$-vector spaces and $\dim V \geqslant 2$. First, if $\dim V < |\mathbb{F}|$ and $f : V \to \mathbb{F}$ is affine-linear when restricted to affine lines parallel to a basis and to certain "generic" lines through $0$, then $f$ is affine-linear on $V$. (This extends to all modules $M$ over unital commutative rings $R$ with large enough characteristic.) Second, we explain how a classical result attributed to von Staudt (1850s) extends beyond bijections: if $f : V \to W$ preserves affine lines $\ell$, and if $f(v) \not\in f(\ell)$ whenever $v \not\in \ell$, then this also suffices to recover affine-linearity on $V$, but up to a field automorphism. In particular, if $\mathbb{F}$ is a prime field $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ ($p>2$) or $\mathbb{Q}$, or a completion $\mathbb{Q}_p$ or $\mathbb{R}$, then $f$ is affine-linear on $V$. We then quantitatively refine our first result above, via a weak multiplicative variant of the additive $B_h$-sets initially explored by Singer [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 1938], Erdos-Turan [J. London Math. Soc. 1941], and Bose-Chowla [Comment. Math. Helv. 1962]. Weak multiplicative $B_h$-sets occur inside all rings with large enough characteristic, and in all infinite or large enough finite integral domains/fields. We show that if $R$ is among any of these classes of rings, and $M = R^n$ for some $n \geqslant 3$, then one requires affine-linearity on at least $\binom{n}{\lceil n/2 \rceil}$-many generic lines to deduce the global affine-linearity of $f$ on $R^n$. Moreover, this bound is sharp.

description: Broadband connectivity is regarded as generally having a positive macroeconomic effect, but we lack evidence as to how it affects key economic activity metrics, such as firm creation, at a very local level. This analysis models the impact of broadband Next Generation Access (NGA) on new business creation at the local level over the 2011-2015 period in England, United Kingdom, using high-resolution panel data. After controlling for a range of factors, we find that faster broadband speeds brought by NGA technologies have a positive effect on the rate of business growth. We find that in England between 2011-2015, on average a one percentage increase in download speeds is associated with a 0.0574 percentage point increase in the annual growth rate of business establishments. The primary hypothesised mechanism behind the estimated relationship is the enabling effect that faster broadband speeds have on innovative business models based on new digital technologies and services. Entrepreneurs either sought appropriate locations that offer high quality broadband infrastructure (contributing to new business establishment growth), or potentially enjoyed a competitive advantage (resulting in a higher survival rate). The findings of this study suggest that aspiring to reach universal high capacity broadband connectivity is economically desirable, especially as the costs of delivering such service decline.

description: The developmental course of daily functioning prior to first psychosis-onset remains poorly understood. This study explored age-related periods of change in social and role functioning. The longitudinal study included youth (aged 12-23, mean follow-up years = 1.19) at clinical high risk (CHR) for psychosis (converters [CHR-C], n = 83; nonconverters [CHR-NC], n = 275) and a healthy control group (n = 164). Mixed-model analyses were performed to determine age-related differences in social and role functioning. We limited our analyses to functioning before psychosis conversion; thus, data of CHR-C participants gathered after psychosis onset were excluded. In controls, social and role functioning improved over time. From at least age 12, functioning in CHR was poorer than in controls, and this lag persisted over time. Between ages 15 and 18, social functioning in CHR-C stagnated and diverged from that of CHR-NC, who continued to improve (p =.001). Subsequently, CHR-C lagged behind in improvement between ages 21 and 23, further distinguishing them from CHR-NC (p <.001). A similar period of stagnation was apparent for role functioning, but to a lesser extent (p =.007). The results remained consistent when we accounted for the time to conversion. Our findings suggest that CHR-C start lagging behind CHR-NC in social and role functioning in adolescence, followed by a period of further stagnation in adulthood.

description: По мере усвоения христианской идеологемы в качестве государственного исповедания политическое руководство Руси стремилось выработать морально-нравственные стандарты для текущей общественно-политической жизнедеятельности, которые способствовали бы сохранению национальной культурно-идеологической самобытности. Не случайно, что в поиске универсальных формул для общения с христианским миром в качестве религиозного культа усваивались церковно-политические традиции не только Византии, но также опыт западноевропейских политиков, в том числе из числа священнослужителей, наглядным примером тому является Папа Римский Климент.As the Christian ideology was assimilated as a state confession, the political leadership of Russia sought to develop moral standards for the current socio-political life, which would help preserve the national cultural and ideological identity. It is no coincidence that in the search for universal formulas for communicating with the Christian world as a religious cult, church-political traditions of not only Byzantium were assimilated, but also the experience of Western European politicians, including clergymen, Pope Clement is a clear example of this.

description: We consider a smoothed online convex optimization (SOCO) problem with predictions, where the learner has access to a finite lookahead window of time-varying stage costs, but suffers a switching cost for changing its actions at each stage. Based on the Alternating Proximal Gradient Descent (APGD) framework, we develop Receding Horizon Alternating Proximal Descent (RHAPD) for proximable, non-smooth and strongly convex stage costs, and RHAPD-Smooth (RHAPD-S) for non-proximable, smooth and strongly convex stage costs. In addition to outperforming gradient descent-based algorithms, while maintaining a comparable runtime complexity, our proposed algorithms also allow us to solve a wider range of problems. We provide theoretical upper bounds on the dynamic regret achieved by the proposed algorithms, which decay exponentially with the length of the lookahead window. The performance of the presented algorithms is empirically demonstrated via numerical experiments on non-smooth regression, dynamic trajectory tracking, and {economic power dispatch} problems.

description: We propose a measurement-based model for fault-tolerant quantum computation that can be realised with one-dimensional cluster states and fusion measurements only; basic resources that are readily available with scalable photonic hardware. Our simulations demonstrate high thresholds compared with other measurement-based models realized with basic entangled resources and two-qubit fusion measurements. Its high tolerance to noise indicates that our practical construction offers a promising route to scalable quantum computing with quantum emitters and linear-optical elements.

description: Built on the Foucaldian Discourse Analysis' (FDA) theoretical-methodological assumptions, and Jäger & Maier's methodological toolbox on discourse, the study systematically illustrates and accounts the discursive formations, socio-historical events and socio-cultural practice that constitutes Non-pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) communicated on social media from March 25 to June 25 2020 which covers the implementation of Republic Act No. 11469 also known as "Bayanihan to Heal as One Act' [Bayanihan refers to a spirit of civic unity and cooperation among Filipinos] in the country. The collective and individual narratives on Non-pharmaceutical interventions [NPIs] (Stay-at-home, handwashing, social distancing and wearing of masks) found in the Department of Health Facebook page on social media to mitigate the risks of infection and transmission of COVID-19 raise the prevailing discourse and assertions that non-pharmaceutical interventions are sets of health protective behaviors and public health standards for prevention, detection, and treatment of COVID-19. Individual willingness to comply, support and cooperate largely driven by concern, empathy, frustration, worries, hopelessness, disappointment, and anger are constructed which are provoked by uncertainties, ongoing social, political, historical, and cultural realities and social conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic health crisis.

description: Anhand von Forschungsdatenrepositorien (FDR) zur Speicherung, Bereitstellung und Nachnutzung digitaler Daten aus und für die Wissenschaft werden verschiedene Aspekte des Austauschs von Forschungsdaten beleuchtet, um so eine empirisch- näherungsweise Beschreibung des wissenschaftlichen Datenmarktes zu erhalten. Der wissenschaftliche Datenmarkt ist historisch gesehen von einem hohen Grad an Heterogenität und Dynamik geprägt und wenig durch Standards und fachbereichsübergreifende Best-Practices strukturiert. Diese Eigenschaften spiegeln sich in der gegenwärtigen digitalen Transformation der Wissenschaften wider, die einerseits diese Merkmale sichtbarer werden lässt und befördert, andererseits auch die immensen Potentiale von Standardisierung, Nachhaltigkeit, Transparenz und Reproduzierbarkeit über Fachgebiete hinweg aufzeigt und greifbar werden lässt.
A Matter of Principle: The Principles of Quantum Theory, Dirac's Equation, and Quantum Information

description: This article is concerned with the role of fundamental principles in theoretical physics, especially quantum theory. The fundamental principles of relativity will be be addressed as well in view of their role in quantum electrodynamics and quantum field theory, specifically Dirac's work, which, in particular Dirac's derivation of his relativistic equation for the electron from the principles of relativity and quantum theory, is the main focus of this article. I shall, however, also consider Heisenberg's derivation of quantum mechanics, which inspired Dirac. I argue that Heisenberg's and Dirac's work alike was guided by their adherence to and confidence in the fundamental principles of quantum theory. The final section of the article discusses the recent work by G. M. D' Ariano and his coworkers on the principles of quantum information theory, which extends quantum theory and its principles in a new direction. This extension enabled them to offer a new derivation of Dirac's equation from these principles alone, without using the principles of relativity.

description: Atypical antipsychotics (AT) and stress are related to weight gain in individuals with severe mental illness. This cross-sectional study examines AT use, stressful life events, and baseline weight in a sample of youth at clinical high risk for psychosis. Results showed that dependent and desirable life events moderated the relationship between AT use and weight after controlling for demographic factors and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressant (AD) use. The relation of AD and weight was explored as a secondary analysis and showed no relation between AD use and weight. Further, stress did not moderate the relationship between AD medication and weight after controlling for antipsychotic use. Results suggest that stress exposure may exacerbate the relationship between ATs and increased weight in clinical high-risk populations. Findings have implications for the development of interventions to address psychosocial factors that worsen or buffer the adverse effects of antipsychotic medication on weight.

description: This paper studies the large-time behavior of solutions to the quasilinear inhomogeneous parabolic equation with combined nonlinearities. This equation is a natural extension of the heat equations with combined nonlinearities considered by Jleli-Samet-Souplet (Proc AMS, 2020). Firstly, we focus on an interesting phenomenon of discontinuity of the critical exponents. In particular, we will fill the gap in the results of Jleli-Samet-Souplet for the critical case. We are also interested in the influence of the forcing term on the critical behavior of the considered problem, so we will define another critical exponent depending on the forcing term.

description: The relevance of anisotropic interactions in colloidal systems has recently emerged in the context of the rational design of new soft materials. Patchy colloids of different shapes, patterns and functionalities are considered the new building blocks of a bottom-up approach toward the realization of selfassembled bulk materials with predefined properties. The ability to tune the interaction anisotropy will make it possible to recreate molecular structures at the nano- and microscales (a case with tremendous technological applications), as well as to generate new unconventional phases, both ordered and disordered. Recent theoretical studies suggest that the phase diagram of patchy colloids can be significantly altered by limiting the particle coordination number (that is, valence). New concepts such as empty liquids-liquid states with vanishing density-and equilibrium gels arrested networks of bonded particles, which do not require an underlying phase separation to form-have been formulated. Yet no experimental evidence of these predictions has been provided. Here we report the first observation of empty liquids and equilibrium gels in a complex colloidal clay, and support the experimental findings with numerical simulations.
