However, in three or higher dimensions, there is no known truly subquadratic-time algorithm for any intersection graph of non-trivial objects, even basic ones such as unit balls or (axis-aligned) unit cubes. This was partially explained by the pioneering work of Bringmann et al. [Karl Bringmann et al., 2022] which gave several truly subquadratic lower bounds, notably for unit balls or unit cubes in 3D when the graph diameter Δ is at least Ω(log n), hinting at a pessimistic outlook for the complexity of the diameter problem in higher dimensions. In this paper, we substantially extend the landscape of diameter computation for objects in three and higher dimensions, giving a few positive results. Our highlighted findings include:  \r\n1) A truly subquadratic-time algorithm for deciding if the diameter of unit cubes in 3D is at most 3 (Diameter-3 hereafter), the first algorithm of its kind for objects in 3D or higher dimensions. Our algorithm is based on a novel connection to pseudolines, which is of independent interest. \r\n2) A truly subquadratic time lower bound for Diameter-3 of unit balls in 3D under the Orthogonal Vector (OV) hypothesis, giving the first separation between unit balls and unit cubes in the small diameter regime. Previously, computing the diameter for both objects was known to be quadratic hard when the diameter is Ω(log n) [Karl Bringmann et al., 2022]. \r\n3) A near-linear-time algorithm for Diameter-2 of unit cubes in 3D, generalizing the previous result for unit squares in 2D [Karl Bringmann et al., 2022]. \r\n4) A truly subquadratic-time algorithm and lower bound for Diameter-2 and Diameter-3 of rectangular boxes (of arbitrary dimension and sizes), respectively.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","scopus_import":"1","conference":{"end_date":"2026-06-05","name":"SoCG: Symposium on Computational Geometry","start_date":"2026-06-02","location":"New Brunswick, NJ, United States"},"file_date_updated":"2026-06-22T08:34:11Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.SoCG.2026.29","OA_place":"publisher","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","day":"27","author":[{"full_name":"Chan, Timothy M.","last_name":"Chan","first_name":"Timothy M."},{"first_name":"Hsien Chih","full_name":"Chang, Hsien Chih","last_name":"Chang"},{"full_name":"Gao, Jie","last_name":"Gao","first_name":"Jie"},{"full_name":"Kisfaludi-Bak, Sándor","last_name":"Kisfaludi-Bak","first_name":"Sándor"},{"first_name":"Hung","last_name":"Le","full_name":"Le, Hung"},{"id":"af77956b-e859-11ef-8dc9-d301b898e32f","last_name":"Zheng","full_name":"Zheng, Da Wei","first_name":"Da Wei"}],"month":"05","keyword":["Graph Diameter","Geometric Intersection Graphs","Unit Ball Graphs"],"intvolume":"       367","year":"2026"},{"oa_version":"Published Version","OA_type":"hybrid","publication":"27th International Symposium on Formal Methods","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"type":"conference","publication_status":"published","external_id":{"arxiv":["2603.00728"]},"arxiv":1,"citation":{"ieee":"M.

Signal First-Order Logic (SFO) offers expressive real-time specifications over such signals, but currently comes only with Boolean semantics and has no tool support. We provide the first robustness-based quantitative semantics for SFO, enabling the expression and evaluation of rich real-time properties beyond the scope of existing formalisms such as Signal Temporal Logic. To enable online monitoring, we identify a past-time fragment of SFO and give a pastification procedure that transforms bounded-response SFO formulas into equisatisfiable formulas in this fragment. We then develop an efficient runtime monitoring algorithm for this past-time fragment and evaluate its performance on a set of benchmarks, demonstrating the practicality and effectiveness of our approach. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first publicly available prototype for online quantitative monitoring of full SFO.","lang":"eng"}],"oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","department":[{"_id":"ToHe"}],"project":[{"name":"Vigilant Algorithmic Monitoring of Software","_id":"62781420-2b32-11ec-9570-8d9b63373d4d","grant_number":"101020093","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"22113","creator":"dernst","checksum":"7055199ecb985e9e2e272f4988827067","date_updated":"2026-06-22T08:18:41Z","file_size":849237,"access_level":"open_access","success":1,"file_name":"2026_LNCS_Chalupa.pdf","relation":"main_file","date_created":"2026-06-22T08:18:41Z"}],"date_published":"2026-05-18T00:00:00Z","quality_controlled":"1"},{"title":"Tunable field-linked s-wave interactions in dipolar fermi mixtures","doi":"10.1038/s42005-026-02578-8","PlanS_conform":"1","article_type":"original","scopus_import":"1","_id":"22100","status":"public","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Spin mixtures of degenerate fermions are a cornerstone of quantum many-body physics, enabling superfluidity, polarons, and rich spin dynamics through s-wave scattering resonances. Combining them with strong, long-range dipolar interactions provides highly flexible control schemes promising even more exotic quantum phases. Recently, microwave shielding gave access to spin-polarized degenerate samples of dipolar fermionic molecules, where tunable p-wave interactions were enabled by field-linked resonances available only by compromising the shielding (due to experimental limitations). Here, we study the scattering properties of a fermionic dipolar spin mixture and show that a universal s-wave resonance is readily accessible without compromising the shielding. We develop a universal description of the tunable s-wave interaction and weakly bound tetratomic states based on the microwave-field parameters. The s-wave resonance paves the way to stable, controllable and strongly-interacting dipolar spin mixtures of deeply degenerate fermions and supports favorable conditions to reach this regime via evaporative cooling."}],"dataavailabilitystatement":"The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding authors upon request.

Diptera have undergone multiple sex-chromosome turnovers and expansions while maintaining their general chromosomal content, which makes them an ideal clade to study such transitions. We analysed more than 100 dipteran whole-genome assemblies and identified 4 new lineages that underwent sex-chromosome turnover (in addition to the 5 previously reported). We find the majority of turnovers happened in the group Schizophora, which tend to have fewer genes on the F element (the chromosome homologous to the ancestral insect X chromosome) than lower dipterans, a factor previously hypothesized to facilitate turnover. Most derived X chromosomes have higher GC content than autosomes, consistent with a high prevalence of male-achiasmy in Diptera. In addition, an excess of gene movement out of the X is detected for most of these new X chromosomes, and many of these moved genes have high testis expression in Drosophila, suggesting that out-of-X gene movement contributes to the long-term demasculinization of X chromosomes.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public"},{"has_accepted_license":"1","oa":1,"quality_controlled":"1","date_published":"2026-03-04T00:00:00Z","file":[{"date_created":"2026-03-16T10:07:46Z","relation":"main_file","success":1,"file_name":"2026_CommunicationsPhysics_Agafonova.pdf","checksum":"62e2175e7e3ad49260ae6a7b4e0860a2","date_updated":"2026-03-16T10:07:46Z","file_size":1901772,"access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21457","creator":"dernst"}],"project":[{"grant_number":"101087907","name":"A quantum hybrid of atoms and milligram-scale pendulums: towards gravitational quantum mechanics","_id":"bdb2a702-d553-11ed-ba76-f12e3e5a3bc6"}],"corr_author":"1","department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"OnHo"}],"doi":"10.1038/s42005-026-02514-w","title":"One-milligram torsional pendulum toward experiments at the quantum-gravity interface","status":"public","_id":"20840","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Probing the possibility of entanglement generation through gravity offers a path to tackle the question of whether gravitational fields possess a quantum mechanical nature. A potential realization necessitates systems with low-frequency dynamics at an optimal mass scale, for which the microgram-to-milligram range is a strong contender. Here, after refining a figure-of-merit for the problem, we present a 1-milligram torsional pendulum operating at 18 Hz. We demonstrate laser cooling its motion from room temperature to 240 microkelvins, surpassing by over 20-fold the coldest motions attained for oscillators ranging from micrograms to kilograms. We quantify and contrast the utility of the current approach with other platforms.

However, our leading idea is to also keep track of the mass at the boundary\r\nby working with measures defined on the whole closure Ω . The driving functional is a\r\nmodification of the classical relative entropy that also makes use of the information at the\r\nboundary.

The evolutionary success of these populations is fundamentally dictated by the organization of genetic variation—the genomic architecture—in the face of severe demographic constraints, such as the founder effects and genetic bottlenecks that frequently accompany colonization. A central question in evolutionary biology is whether rapid adaptation relies on major-effect loci, such as chromosomal inversions, or on many small-effect loci dispersed across the genome. Furthermore, the genomic architecture strongly influences the extent to which evolutionary outcomes are predictable. Using introduced populations of the marine snail, Littorina saxatilis, as a model, this thesis investigates how genetic variation and genomic structure drive adaptation following introduction. We employed a population genomics approach on experimentally and accidentally introduced populations to dissect the specific genomic features that underpin divergence in newly colonized environments.\r\n\r\nIn Chapter 2, we tested the predictability of local adaptation through an uncommon 30-year transplant experiment in nature. By distinguishing allele and chromosomal inversion frequency changes from neutral expectations, we found that evolutionary change was highly predictable at the macro-scale (phenotypes and chromosomal inversions), but less robust at the level of individual collinear loci. This result demonstrates that evolution can be predictable when a population possesses sufficient standing genetic variation (SGV), with chromosomal inversions acting as key integrated units that facilitate a rapid response to selection. Building on this, Chapter 3 applied whole-genome sequencing to three accidentally introduced populations (Venice, San Francisco, and Redwood City) to investigate their likely source and genomic patterns of divergence. We identified genomic regions of remarkable divergence potentially associated with local adaptation, and likely fuelled by SGV, while explicitly acknowledging the difficulty in disentangling selection signals from the genome-wide effects of demographic processes. Furthermore, we found that the divergence patterns relied extensively on the collinear genome in these introduced populations, and less clearly on the chromosomal inversions. This observation contrasts with local adaptation observed in the experimental system that relied on both collinear loci and highly selected chromosomal inversions, highlighting how demographic history and genomic architecture influence the detectable signature of local adaptation.\r\n\r\nA major limitation to conducting large-scale comparative evolutionary studies is the lack of data standardization, which prevents the integration of community knowledge and high-resolution environmental and genetic data. Chapter 4 addresses this by developing a community database for the Littorina system. This platform implements standardized protocols for the integration of diverse phenotypic and environmental data from multiple Littorina species. Likewise, the platform also centralizes the availability of associated genomic data through links to external repositories. This database represents a crucial tool to test complex, large-scale evolutionary hypotheses.\r\n\r\nCollectively, this thesis strongly reinforces the fundamental importance of SGV as the raw material for successful local adaptation, a conclusion supported by evidence in both experimental and accidental introductions. Furthermore, this work highlights the critical role of the genomic architecture—specifically chromosomal inversions—in driving the predictability and effectiveness of adaptive responses. Our findings underscore how the interplay between SGV and genomic architecture dictates the trajectory and detectability of evolution in colonizing populations, while simultaneously providing a necessary tool to advance comparative evolutionary genomics in emerging model organisms.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","title":"The genomic architecture of local adaptation in introduced populations","doi":"10.15479/AT-ISTA-20991","corr_author":"1","department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"NiBa"}],"supervisor":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-8548-5240","first_name":"Nicholas H","last_name":"Barton","id":"4880FE40-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Barton, Nicholas H"},{"orcid":"0000-0003-1050-4969","full_name":"Westram, Anja M","id":"3C147470-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Westram","first_name":"Anja M"}],"date_published":"2026-01-16T00:00:00Z","file":[{"content_type":"application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document","file_id":"20996","creator":"dgarciac","checksum":"841f1bc073d667125729b2a017f8c37a","date_updated":"2026-01-16T12:25:13Z","file_size":22456421,"access_level":"closed","file_name":"2026_Garcia_Diego_Thesis.docx","relation":"source_file","date_created":"2026-01-16T12:25:13Z"},{"success":1,"file_name":"2026_Garcia_Diego_Thesis.pdf","relation":"main_file","date_created":"2026-01-16T12:25:13Z","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"20997","creator":"dgarciac","checksum":"a1f33d4f183ce7072eee42a6ccf5340b","date_updated":"2026-01-16T12:25:13Z","file_size":9556719,"access_level":"open_access"},{"date_created":"2026-01-16T13:08:14Z","relation":"supplementary_material","file_name":"2026_DiegoGarcia_LittorinaDB Source Code and Protocols.rar","checksum":"98a80691067174c30fe53f38ce7344e6","description":"Source code of the PostgreSQL database, front-end and back-end of the LittorinaDB web application developed as a product of the 4th chapter of the thesis.","date_updated":"2026-01-16T13:08:14Z","access_level":"closed","file_size":54491433,"content_type":"application/x-compressed","file_id":"20998","creator":"dgarciac"},{"file_name":"2026_DiegoGarcia_Thesis-Supplementary_Material.rar","relation":"supplementary_material","date_created":"2026-01-16T13:08:14Z","content_type":"application/x-compressed","file_id":"20999","creator":"dgarciac","checksum":"99a3cab2fa36666b9a92eefc27d586da","date_updated":"2026-01-16T13:08:14Z","access_level":"open_access","file_size":7982811},{"checksum":"255fdf56b2932c46bf27c63aa6106a4f","date_updated":"2026-01-16T13:08:59Z","file_size":732,"access_level":"open_access","content_type":"text/plain","file_id":"21000","creator":"dgarciac","date_created":"2026-01-16T13:08:59Z","relation":"supplementary_material","file_name":"README.txt"}],"oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","year":"2026","month":"01","user_id":"ba8df636-2132-11f1-aed0-ed93e2281fdd","author":[{"full_name":"Garcia Castillo, Diego Fernando","last_name":"Garcia Castillo","id":"ae681a14-dc74-11ea-a0a7-c6ef18161701","first_name":"Diego Fernando"}],"page":"199","day":"16","OA_place":"publisher","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.15479/AT-ISTA-20991","degree_awarded":"PhD","file_date_updated":"2026-01-16T13:08:59Z","article_processing_charge":"No","date_updated":"2026-04-16T12:20:37Z","related_material":{"record":[{"relation":"research_data","status":"public","id":"18498"},{"id":"18491","status":"public","relation":"part_of_dissertation"}]},"acknowledgement":"I acknowledge the funding agencies 1Norwegian Research Council RCN project 315287.\r\n2The FIASCO project \"Illuminating range shifts through evolutionary FIASCO: contrasting\r\nFaIling And Successful ColOnizations in replicated wild populations\", funded by the\r\nEuropean Union - Next Generation EU (Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza - MUR\r\ncode: P202229JBC, CUP: C53D23007100001). 3Ecotypic formation in Littorina saxatilis\r\nin the Western Atlantic and comparisons across the North Atlantic.

Complementary first-principles calculations, consistent with experimental electronic and optical responses, predict a zT of 1.05 at 1000 K. These findings elucidate the formation dynamics of CsCu5Se3 and establish ABZ (A = alkali, B = metal, Z = chalcogen) NCs as tunable platforms for advanced functional applications.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"letter_note","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","date_published":"2026-01-09T00:00:00Z","department":[{"_id":"MaIb"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"project":[{"name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery","_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A"}]},{"ddc":["540"],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2155-5435"]},"publisher":"American Chemical Society","volume":16,"acknowledgement":"We gratefully acknowledge the Institute of Science and Technology Austria for generous financial support.

This article highlights recent advances in the field toward solving these long-standing challenges. We survey strategies that streamline the generation of catalytically competent NiI species from bench-stable NiII precatalysts, and discuss mechanistic studies that shed light on deactivation pathways and the rate-determining oxidative addition of aryl halides.

Our experiment designs are motivated by land‐ocean heterogeneity of atmospheric convection. The steady and oscillating forcings are idealizations of ocean and land conditions, respectively, based on their differences in heat capacities. In both kinds of simulations, the diurnal mean SST and SOLIN are the same, and both SST and SOLIN are only varied in time (i.e., they are spatially homogeneous at any given time). We find that diurnally oscillating forcing accelerates CSA. Stronger long‐wave cooling in dry regions at night and during the warm SST phase (late afternoon) both allow the long‐wave feedback, known to favor aggregation, to intensify compared to steady forcing simulations. In addition to the long‐wave, reduced short‐wave warming in dry regions (during the day) further enhances radiative cooling there compared to moist regions. Overall, the radiative cooling is enhanced in dry regions compared to neighboring moist convective regions. A dry subsidence is driven by this net radiative (short‐wave plus long‐wave) cooling, consistent with earlier work on CSA. Stronger radiative cooling allows stronger subsidence which allows low‐level circulation to more efficiently transport moisture and energy up‐gradient, driving convection to aggregate faster. We also note a sensitivity of our experimental setup to initial conditions, more so at warmer SST. This stochastic behavior might be critical in reconciling the differences of opinion regarding the response of convection aggregation to oscillating SST forcing."}],"status":"public","title":"Convective self‐aggregation in diurnally oscillating sea surface temperature and solar forcing experiments","doi":"10.1029/2024ms004576"},{"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1745-2481"],"issn":["1745-2473"],"issnl":[" 1745-2473"]},"publisher":"Springer Nature","ddc":["570"],"related_material":{"link":[{"description":"News on ISTA website","relation":"research_data","url":"https://ista.ac.at/en/news/geometry-shapes-life/"}]},"date_updated":"2026-04-28T12:55:30Z","volume":22,"acknowledgement":"We thank N.

Here we show that in zebrafish, the geometry of the fertilized egg—specifically its curvature and volume—serves as a critical initial condition triggering a cascade of events that influence development. The embryo geometry guides patterned asymmetric cell divisions in the blastoderm, generating radial gradients of cell volume and nucleocytoplasmic ratio. These gradients generate mitotic phase waves, with the nucleocytoplasmic ratio determining individual cell cycle periods independently of other cells. We demonstrate that reducing cell autonomy reshapes these waves, emphasizing the instructive role of geometry-derived volume patterns in setting the intrinsic period of the cell cycle oscillator. In addition to organizing cell cycles, early embryo geometry spatially patterns zygotic genome activation at the midblastula transition, a key step in establishing embryonic autonomy. Disrupting the embryo shape alters the zygotic genome activation pattern and causes ectopic germ layer specification, underscoring the developmental significance of geometry. Together, our findings reveal a symmetry-breaking function of early embryo geometry in coordinating cell cycle and transcriptional patterning."}],"status":"public","scopus_import":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1038/s41567-025-03122-1","title":"Geometry-driven asymmetric cell divisions pattern cell cycles and zygotic genome activation in the zebrafish embryo","page":"139-150","author":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-6425-5788","first_name":"Nikhil","full_name":"Mishra, Nikhil","last_name":"Mishra","id":"C4D70E82-1081-11EA-B3ED-9A4C3DDC885E"},{"first_name":"Yuting I","id":"ee7a5ca8-8b71-11ed-b662-b3341c05b7eb","last_name":"Li","full_name":"Li, Yuting I"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-6005-1561","first_name":"Edouard B","full_name":"Hannezo, Edouard B","last_name":"Hannezo","id":"3A9DB764-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-0912-4566","full_name":"Heisenberg, Carl-Philipp J","id":"39427864-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Heisenberg","first_name":"Carl-Philipp J"}],"day":"05","user_id":"ba8df636-2132-11f1-aed0-ed93e2281fdd","month":"01","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","file_date_updated":"2026-01-21T08:21:11Z","OA_place":"publisher","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41567-025-03122-1","ec_funded":1,"year":"2026","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"PreCl"},{"_id":"Bio"},{"_id":"ScienComp"},{"_id":"LifeSc"}],"intvolume":"        22"},{"file_date_updated":"2026-01-21T07:45:03Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","OA_place":"publisher","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s44007-025-00180-y","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","author":[{"first_name":"Giovanni","last_name":"Brigati","id":"63ff57e8-1fbb-11ee-88f2-f558ffc59cf1","full_name":"Brigati, Giovanni"},{"full_name":"Dolbeault, Jean","last_name":"Dolbeault","first_name":"Jean"},{"last_name":"Simonov","full_name":"Simonov, Nikita","first_name":"Nikita"}],"day":"08","month":"01","intvolume":"         5","year":"2026","ec_funded":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","oa":1,"date_published":"2026-01-08T00:00:00Z","file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"21025","creator":"dernst","checksum":"0702d8397f216555b1d5286e5d77f09c","date_updated":"2026-01-21T07:45:03Z","file_size":4992025,"access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2026_LaMatematica_Brigati.pdf","success":1,"date_created":"2026-01-21T07:45:03Z","relation":"main_file"}],"quality_controlled":"1","corr_author":"1","project":[{"grant_number":"101034413","name":"IST-BRIDGE: International postdoctoral program","_id":"fc2ed2f7-9c52-11eb-aca3-c01059dda49c","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"department":[{"_id":"JaMa"}],"doi":"10.1007/s44007-025-00180-y","title":"Logarithmic Sobolev Inequalities: A review on stability and instability results","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"In this paper, we review recent results on stability and instability in logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, with a particular emphasis on strong norms.

This decrease is manifested by a decrease of the mass transported in the upward branch of the atmospheric overturning circulation – the convective mass flux – and a connected decrease of high clouds in the tropics, with implications for climate sensitivity. By using kilometer-scale simulations in radiative-convective equilibrium and a convective tracking algorithm, we show that no such decrease occurs in storms when taken individually and that the mass transport per storm increases instead. Storms can achieve this result by aggregating more surface of the convective cores – the inner part of the storm doing the vertical transport – so that the decrease of tropical convection is actually explained by a decrease in the total number of storms. There is little variation of the mean pressure velocity in the cores of the storms, a robust finding of this study. This remarkable invariance of the mean pressure velocity points to an emerging property of convection that should receive more attention in future studies.","lang":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","article_type":"original","doi":"10.1038/s41612-025-01285-5","title":"No decrease of tropical convection in individual deep convective systems with global warming","pmid":1,"day":"15","author":[{"first_name":"Maximilien","last_name":"Bolot","full_name":"Bolot, Maximilien"},{"full_name":"Roca, Rémy","last_name":"Roca","first_name":"Rémy"},{"last_name":"Fiolleau","full_name":"Fiolleau, Thomas","first_name":"Thomas"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-5836-5350","id":"f978ccb0-3f7f-11eb-b193-b0e2bd13182b","last_name":"Muller","full_name":"Muller, Caroline J","first_name":"Caroline J"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","month":"01","article_processing_charge":"Yes","file_date_updated":"2026-02-12T08:39:27Z","OA_place":"publisher","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41612-025-01285-5","ec_funded":1,"year":"2026","intvolume":"         9","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2397-3722"]},"publisher":"Springer Nature","DOAJ_listed":"1","ddc":["550"],"date_updated":"2026-02-12T08:41:09Z","volume":9,"acknowledgement":"We thank Sophie Cloché for her support with the handling of the various datasets.

Their spectra exhibit broad Balmer emission lines (>~1000 km s^−1), alongside absorption features and a pronounced Balmer break – evidence for a dense, neutral hydrogen medium, in which the n = 2 state is significantly populated. When interpreted as arising\r\nfrom active galactic nucleus broad-line regions, inferred black hole masses from local scaling relations exceed expectations given their stellar masses, challenging models of early black hole–galaxy co-evolution. However, radiative transfer effects in dense media may also impact the formation of hydrogen emission lines. We model three scattering processes shaping hydrogen\r\nline profiles: resonance scattering by hydrogen in the n = 2 state, Raman scattering of ultraviolet (UV) radiation by ground-state hydrogen, and Thomson scattering by free electrons. Using 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations, we examine their imprint on line shapes and ratios. Resonance scattering produces strong deviations from Case B flux ratios, clear differences\r\nbetween Hα and Hβ, and encodes gas kinematics in line profiles but cannot broaden Hβ due to conversion to Paα. While Raman scattering can yield broad wings, scattering of the UV continuum is disfavoured given the absence of strong full width at half-maximum variations across transitions. Raman scattering of higher Lyman-series emission can produce Hα/Hβ wing\r\nwidth ratios of  >~1.28, agreeing with observations. Thomson scattering can reproduce the observed >~ 1000 km s^−1 wings under plausible conditions – e.g. Te ∼ 10^4 K and Ne ∼ 10^24 cm^−2 – and lead to black hole mass overestimates by factors  10.

However, the nature and effect of the changes are material-dependent and unknown for the important class of Co-free, Ni-poor LRLOs. Here, we analyze the processes during the tailored formation procedure of a typical class member, Li1.28Ni0.15Mn0.57O2, and demonstrate that it remarkably changes lattice composition and structure as a prerequisite for stable cycling. We combine electrochemistry, operando mass spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy with density functional theory simulations. Activation most prominently compresses the layer spacing along the c-axis and increases reversible structural breathing. The large capacity of ∼250 mAh g–1 originates from the Ni2+/Ni4+ and O2–/O– redox couples. Electron exchange during O-redox is smeared over the entire anionic sublattice rather than localized on specific oxygen atomic sites. This redox mechanism is reversible without detrimental oxygen evolution, avoiding continued degradation common in conventional LRLOs. Sequential Ni- and O-redox during activation irreversibly distorts the coordination of the redox-inactive Mn4+ centers. This structural evolution of the MnO6 octahedra appears to enable the superior electrochemical performance of this LRLO phase. These findings define an activation pathway for the important class of Co-free, Ni-poor LRLOs, offering potential guidance for the rational design of high-performance, more sustainable cathode materials."}],"_id":"21040","status":"public","citation":{"ista":"Busato M, Tuccillo M, Celeste A, Tofoni A, Silvestri L, D’Angelo P, Freunberger SA, Brutti S. 2026.

In this context, a trusted program component is said to be robustly safe if it behaves safely when linked against arbitrary untrusted code. Prior work has shown how various encapsulation mechanisms (in both high- and low-level languages) can be used to protect code so that it is robustly safe, but none of the existing work has explored how robust safety can be achieved in a patently unsafe language like C.\r\nIn this paper, we show how to bring robust safety to a simple yet representative C-like language we call Rec. Although Rec (like C) is inherently ”dangerous” and thus not robustly safe, we can ”save” Rec programs via compilation to Cap, a CHERI-like capability machine. To formalize the benefits of such a hardening compiler, we develop Reckon, a separation logic for verifying robust safety of Rec programs. Reckon is not sound under Rec’s unsafe, C-like semantics, but it is sound when Rec programs are hardened via compilation and linked against untrusted code running on Cap. As a crucial step in proving soundness of Reckon, we introduce a novel technique of semantic back-translation, which we formalize by building on the DimSum framework for multi-language semantics. All our results are mechanized in the Rocq prover."}],"_id":"21041","status":"public","title":"Endangered by the language but saved by the compiler: Robust safety via semantic back-translation","doi":"10.1145/3776682","department":[{"_id":"MiSa"}],"quality_controlled":"1","file":[{"checksum":"79be391061efbf9542638996959ce11a","file_size":1058876,"access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2026-02-12T13:51:03Z","content_type":"application/pdf","creator":"dernst","file_id":"21221","relation":"main_file","date_created":"2026-02-12T13:51:03Z","file_name":"2026_ProcACMProgrammingLanguages_Mueck.pdf","success":1}],"date_published":"2026-01-08T00:00:00Z","oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"type":"journal_article","publication_status":"published","oa_version":"Published Version","OA_type":"hybrid","publication":"Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages","date_created":"2026-01-25T23:01:40Z","citation":{"mla":"Mück, Niklas, et al. “Endangered by the Language but Saved by the Compiler: Robust Safety via Semantic Back-Translation.” <i>Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages</i>, vol. 10, Association for Computing Machinery, 2026, pp. 1153–82, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1145/3776682\">10.1145/3776682</a>.","ista":"Mück N, Georges AL, Dreyer D, Garg D, Sammler MJ. 2026.
