  abstract     = {Simultaneously addressing multiple objectives is becoming increasingly important in modern machine learning. At the same time, data is often high-dimensional and costly to label. For a single objective such as prediction risk, conventional regularization techniques are known to improve generalization when the data exhibits low-dimensional structure like sparsity. However, it is largely unexplored how to leverage this structure in the context of multi-objective learning (MOL) with multiple competing objectives. In this work, we discuss how the application of vanilla regularization approaches can fail, and propose a two-stage MOL framework that can successfully leverage low-dimensional structure. We demonstrate its effectiveness experimentally for multi-distribution learning and fairness-risk trade-offs.},

Our mechanisms give better additive ℓ∞-error than existing mechanisms for a large class of queries and input streams. Our first contribution is an output-sensitive mechanism in the insertions-only model (χ = {0, 1}) for maintaining (i) the histogram or (ii) queries that do not require maintaining the entire histogram, such as the maximum or minimum column sum, the median, or any quantiles. The mechanism has an additive error of O(d log2 (dq∗) + log T) whp, where q∗ is the maximum output value over all time steps on this dataset. The mechanism does not require q∗ as input. This breaks the Ω(d log T) bound of prior work when q∗ ≪ T. Our second contribution is a mechanism for the turnstile model that admits negative entry updates (χ = {−1, 0, 1}). This mechanism has an additive error of O(d log2(dK) + log T) whp, where K is the number of times two consecutive data rows differ, and the mechanism does not require K as input. This is useful when monitoring inputs that only vary under unusual circumstances. For d = 1 this gives the first
private mechanism with error O(log2 K + log T) for continual counting in the turnstile model, improving on the O(log2 n + log T) error bound by Dwork et al. (2015), where n is the number of ones in the stream, as well as allowing negative entries, while Dwork et al. (2015) can only handle nonnegative entries (χ = {0, 1}). },

  abstract     = {Observational genome-wide association studies are now widely used for causal inference in genetic epidemiology. To maintain privacy, such data is often only publicly available as summary statistics, and often studies for the endogenous covariates and the outcome are available separately. This has necessitated methods tailored to two-sample summary statistics. Current state-of-the-art methods modify linear instrumental variable (IV) regression---with genetic variants as instruments---to account for unmeasured confounding. However, since the endogenous covariates can be high dimensional, standard IV assumptions are generally insufficient to identify all causal effects simultaneously. We ensure identifiability by assuming the causal effects are sparse and propose a sparse causal effect two-sample IV estimator, spaceTSIV, adapting the spaceIV estimator by Pfister and Peters (2022) for two-sample summary statistics. We provide two methods, based on L0- and L1-penalization, respectively. We prove identifiability of the sparse causal effects in the two-sample setting and consistency of spaceTSIV. The performance of spaceTSIV is compared with existing two-sample IV methods in simulations. Finally, we showcase our methods using real proteomic and gene-expression data for drug-target discovery.},

Bloch-McConnell Relaxation Dispersion (BMRD) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a key technique for studying these dynamic processes. While BMRD experiments are routinely used to probe protein motions in solution, the experiment is more demanding in the solid state, where dipolar couplings complicate the spin dynamics. It is believed that high deuteration levels are required and sufficient to obtain accurate and quantitative data. Here we show that even under fast magic-angle spinning and high levels of deuteration artifactual “bumps” in 15N R1ρ BMRD profiles are common. The origin of these artifacts is identified as a second-order three-spin Mixed Rotational and Rotary Resonance (MIRROR) recoupling condition. These artifacts are found to be a significant confounding factor for the accurate quantification of microsecond protein dynamics using BMRD in the solid state. We show that the application of low-power continuous wave (CW) decoupling simultaneously with the 15N spin-lock leads to the suppression of these conditions and enables quantitative measurements of microsecond exchange in the solid state. Remarkably, the application of decoupling allows the measurement of accurate BMRD even in fully protonated proteins at 100 kHz MAS, thus extending the scope of μs dynamics measurements in MAS NMR.},

Since the density of states typically exhibits only square root edge or cubic root cusp singularities, our result completes the proof of the Wigner–Dyson–Mehta universality conjecture in all spectral regimes for a very general class of random matrices. Previously only the bulk and the edge universality were established in this generality (Alt et al. in Ann Probab 48(2):963–1001, 2020), while cusp universality was proven only for Wigner-type matrices with independent entries (Cipolloni et al. in Pure Appl Anal 1:615–707, 2019; Erdős et al. in Commun.

As our main technical input, we prove an optimal local law at the cusp using the <jats:italic>Zigzag strategy</jats:italic>, a recursive tandem of the characteristic flow method and a Green function comparison argument. Moreover, our proof of the optimal local law holds uniformly in the spectrum, thus we also provide a significantly simplified alternative proof of the local eigenvalue universality in the previously studied bulk (Erdős et al. in Forum Math.

Inference can be improved by including information about parentage shared between siblings, or by modelling phenotypes or population data related to mating. However, we currently lack a framework to infer parent–offspring relationships, sibships and population parameters in a single analysis. To address this, we here extend a previous method, Fractional Analysis of Paternity and Sibships, to include population data for the case where one parent is known. We illustrate this with the example of pollen dispersal in a natural hybrid zone population of the snapdragon Antirrhinum majus. Pollen dispersal is leptokurtic, with half of mating events occurring within 30 m, but with a long tail of mating events up to 859 m. Using simulations, we find that both sibship and population information substantially improve pedigree reconstruction, and that we can expect to resolve median dispersal distances with high accuracy.},

As such, a theoretical understanding of the effect of confinement on LGT dynamics is not only of fundamental importance but also can lend itself to upcoming experiments. Here we show how confinement in a Z2 LGT can be  avoided by proximity to a resonance between the fermion mass and the electric field strength. Furthermore, we show that this local deconfinement can become global for certain initial conditions, where information transport occurs over the entire chain. In addition, we show how this can lead to strong quantum many-body scarring starting in different initial states. Our findings provide deeper insights into the nature of confinement in Z2 LGTs and can be tested on current and near-term quantum devices.},

  abstract     = {The evolution of sexual dimorphism (the difference in average trait values between females and males, SD), is often thought to be constrained by shared genetic architecture between the sexes. Indeed, it is commonly expected that SD should negatively correlate with the intersex correlation (the genetic correlation between effects of segregating variants in females and males, r fm), either because (1) traits with ancestrally low r fm are less constrained in their ability to respond to sex-specific selection and thus evolve to be more dimorphic, or because (2) sex-specific selection, driving sexual dimorphism evolution, also acts to reduce r fm. Despite the intuitive appeal and prominence of these ideas, their generality and the conditions in which they hold remain unclear. Here, we develop models incorporating sex-specific stabilizing selection, mutation and genetic drift to examine the relationship between r fm and SD. We show that the two commonly-discussed mechanisms with the potential to generate a negative correlation between SD and r fm could just as easily generate a positive association, since the standard line of reasoning hinges on a hidden assumption that sex-specific adaptation more frequently favors increased dimorphism than reduced dimorphism. Our results provide, to our knowledge, the first mechanistic framework for understanding the conditions under which a correlation between r fm and SD may arise and offer a compelling explanation for inconsistent empirical evidence. We also make the intriguing observation that—even when selection between the two sexes is identical—drift generates nonzero SD. We quantify this effect and discuss its significance.},

  abstract     = {Context. Rotation plays an important role in stellar evolution. However, the mechanisms behind the transport of angular momentum in stars at various stages of their evolution are not well understood. To improve our understanding of these processes, it is necessary to measure and validate the internal rotation profiles of stars across different stages of evolution and mass regimes.
Aims. Our aim is to constrain the internal rotation profile of the 12-M⊙ β Cep pulsator HD 192575 from the observed pulsational multiplets and the asymmetries of their component frequencies.
Methods. We updated the forward asteroseismic modelling of HD 192575 based on new TESS observations. We inverted the rotation profile from the symmetric part of the splittings and computed the multiplet asymmetries due to the Coriolis force and stellar deformation, which we treated perturbatively. We compared the computed asymmetries with the observed asymmetries.
Results. Our new forward asteroseismic modelling is in agreement with previous results but with increased uncertainties, partially due to increased frequency precision, which required us to relax certain constraints. Ambiguity in the mode identification is the main source of the uncertainty, which also affects the inferred rotation profiles. Almost all acceptable rotation profiles occur in the regime below 0.4 d−1 and favour weak radial differential rotation, with a ratio of core to envelope rotation of less than 2. We find that the quality of the match between the observed and theoretically predicted mode asymmetries is strongly dependent on the mode identification and the internal structure of the star.
Conclusions. Our results offer the first detailed rotation inversion for a β Cep pulsator. They show that the rotation profile and the mode asymmetries provide a valuable tool for further constraining the evolutionary properties of HD 192575, and in particular the details of angular momentum transport in massive stars.},

  abstract     = {Pioneer transcription factors (TFs) engage chromatinized DNA motifs. However, it is unclear how the resultant TF-nucleosome complexes are decoded by co-factors. In humans, the TF p53 regulates cell-cycle progression, apoptosis, and the DNA damage response, with a large fraction of p53-bound sites residing in nucleosome-harboring inaccessible chromatin. We examined the interaction of chromatin-bound p53 with co-factors belonging to the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS). At two distinct motif locations on the nucleosome (super-helical location [SHL]−5.7 and SHL+5.9), the E3 ubiquitin ligase E6-E6AP was unable to bind nucleosome-engaged p53. The deubiquitinase USP7, on the other hand, readily engages nucleosome-bound p53 in vitro and in cells. A corresponding cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure shows USP7 engaged with p53 and nucleosomes. Our work illustrates how chromatin imposes a co-factor-selective barrier for p53 interactors, whereby flexibly tethered interaction domains of co-factors and TFs govern compatibility between co-factors, TFs, and chromatin.},

@article{20402,
  abstract     = {The recent classification of the onset of turbulence as a directed percolation (DP) phase transition has been applied to all major shear flows including pipe, channel, Couette and boundary layer flows. A cornerstone of the DP analogy is the memoryless (Poisson) property of turbulent sites. We here show that, for the classic case of channel flow, neither the decay nor the proliferation of turbulent stripes is memoryless. As demonstrated by a standard analysis of the respective survival curves, isolated channel stripes, in the immediate vicinity of the critical point, age. Consequently, the one to one mapping between turbulent stripes and active DP-sites is not fulfilled in this low Reynolds number regime. In addition, the interpretation of turbulence as a chaotic saddle with supertransient properties, the basis of recent theoretical progress, does not apply to individual localized stripes. The discrepancy between channel flow and the transition models established for pipe and Couette flow, illustrates that seemingly minor geometrical differences between flows can give rise to instabilities and growth mechanisms that fundamentally alter the nature of the transition to turbulence.},

@article{20404,
  abstract     = {Collagens are fundamental components of extracellular matrices, requiring precise intracellular post-translational modifications for proper function. Among the modifications, prolyl 4-hydroxylation is critical to stabilise the collagen triple helix. In humans, this reaction is mediated by collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (P4Hs). While humans possess three genes encoding these enzymes (P4H⍺s), Drosophila melanogaster harbour at least 26 candidates for collagen P4H⍺s despite its simple genome, and it is poorly understood which of them are actually working on collagen in the fly. In this study, we addressed this question by carrying out thorough bioinformatic and biochemical analyses. We demonstrate that among the 26 potential collagen P4H⍺s, PH4⍺EFB shares the highest homology with vertebrate collagen P4H⍺s. Furthermore, while collagen P4Hs and their substrates must exist in the same cells, our transcriptomic analyses at the tissue and single cell levels showed a global co-expression of PH4⍺EFB but not the other P4H⍺-related genes with the collagen IV genes. Moreover, expression of PH4⍺EFB during embryogenesis was found to precede that of collagen IV, presumably enabling efficient collagen modification by PH4⍺EFB. Finally, biochemical assays confirm that PH4⍺EFB binds collagen, supporting its direct role in collagen IV modification. Collectively, we identify PH4⍺EFB as the primary and potentially constitutive prolyl 4-hydroxylase responsible for collagen IV biosynthesis in Drosophila. Our findings highlight the remarkably simple nature of Drosophila collagen IV biosynthesis, which may serve as a blueprint for defining the minimal requirements for collagen engineering.},

  abstract     = {Dielectric breakdown of physical vacuum (Schwinger effect) is the textbook demonstration of compatibility of Relativity and Quantum theory. Although observing this effect is still practically unachievable, its analogue generalizations have been shown to be more readily attainable. This paper demonstrates that a gapped Dirac semiconductor, methylammonium lead-bromide perovskite (MAPbBr3), exhibits analogue dynamic Schwinger effect. Tunneling ionization under deep subgap mid-infrared irradiation leads to intense photoluminescence in the visible range, in full agreement with quasi-adiabatic theory. In addition to revealing a gapped extended system suitable for studying the analogue Schwinger effect, this observation holds great potential for nonperturbative field sensing, i.e., sensing electric fields through nonperturbative light-matter interactions. First, this paper illustrates this by measuring the local deviation from the nominally cubic phase of a perovskite single crystal, which can be interpreted in terms of frozen-in fields. Next, it is shown that analogue dynamic Schwinger effect can be used for nonperturbative amplification of nonparametric upconversion process in perovskites driven simultaneously by multiple optical fields. This discovery demonstrates the potential for material response beyond perturbation theory in the tunneling regime, offering extremely sensitive light detection and amplification across an ultrabroad spectral range not accessible by conventional devices.},
