Recent observational results from asteroseismic studies show that an important fraction of solar-like stars do not present detectable stochastically excited acoustic oscillations. This non-detectability seems to correlate with a high rotation rate in the convective envelope and a high surface magnetic activity. At the same time, the properties of stellar convection are affected by rotation and magnetism.\r\nAims. We investigate the role of rotation in the excitation of acoustic modes in the convective envelope of solar-like stars, to evaluate its impact on the energy injected in the oscillations.\r\nMethods. We derived theoretical prescriptions for the excitation of acoustic waves in the convective envelope of rotating solar-like stars. We adopted the rotating mixing-length Theory to model the influence of rotation on convection. We used the MESA stellar evolution code and the GYRE stellar oscillation code to estimate the power injected in the oscillations from our theoretical prescriptions.\r\nResults. We demonstrate that the power injected in the acoustic modes is insensitive to rotation if a Gaussian time-correlation function is assumed, while it can decrease by up to 60% for a Lorentzian time-correlation function, for a 20 Ω⊙ rotation rate. We show that the modification of the excitation rate by rotation depends not only on the rotation rate but also on the radial and angular orders of the considered oscillation mode. This result can allow for better constraints on the properties of stellar convection by studying observationally acoustic mode excitation.\r\nConclusions. These results demonstrate how important it is to take into account the modification of stellar convection by rotation when evaluating the amplitude of the stellar oscillations it stochastically excites. They open the path for understanding the large variety of observed acoustic-mode amplitudes at the surface of solar-like stars as a function of surface rotation rates.","lang":"eng"}],"file":[{"creator":"dernst","file_id":"21306","checksum":"b8a0927307c1d82025bcb5af47b20b26","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","date_updated":"2026-02-17T13:07:45Z","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2025_AstronomyAstrophysics_Bessila.pdf","success":1,"file_size":7161755,"date_created":"2026-02-17T13:07:45Z"}],"intvolume":"       700","date_updated":"2026-02-17T13:10:18Z","OA_type":"gold"},{"citation":{"mla":"Qi, Linlin, and Jiří Friml. “Nucleotidyl Cyclase Activities of TIR1/AFB Auxin Receptors: New Insights into the Mechanism of Auxin Signaling.” <i>Cryptic Enzymes and Moonlighting Proteins</i>, edited by Helen Irving et al., Elsevier, 2025, pp. 299–322, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-443-15719-6.00015-5\">10.1016/b978-0-443-15719-6.00015-5</a>.","apa":"Qi, L., &#38; Friml, J.

It had been clearly demonstrated and well-accepted that the intracellular auxin receptors, TIR1/AFBs, are F-box proteins mediating transcriptional auxin signaling by their E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, which targets and sends for degradation the Aux/IAA transcriptional repressors. The recent discovery of adenylate cyclase (AC) and guanylate cyclase (GC) activities for TIR1/AFBs open entirely new perspectives on how auxin signaling can operate. This chapter traces back the history of how canonical transcriptional auxin signaling was established and introduces the discovery of the TIR1/AFBs-mediated nontranscriptional signaling branch. Finally, the current understanding and open questions of how TIR1/AFBs’ AC and GC activities contribute to the transcriptional and nontranscriptional auxin signaling are discussed, highlighting the possibility that cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) act as second messengers in auxin signal transduction.","lang":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","OA_type":"closed access","date_updated":"2026-02-17T13:28:38Z","year":"2025","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"Elsevier","date_published":"2025-05-02T00:00:00Z","type":"book_chapter","publication_status":"published","day":"02","oa_version":"None","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-443-15719-6.00015-5","editor":[{"first_name":"Helen","full_name":"Irving, Helen","last_name":"Irving"},{"full_name":"Gehring, Chris","first_name":"Chris","last_name":"Gehring"},{"first_name":"Aloysius","full_name":"Wong, Aloysius","last_name":"Wong"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","doi":"10.1016/b978-0-443-15719-6.00015-5","article_processing_charge":"No","alternative_title":["Foundations and Frontiers in Enzymology"],"title":"Nucleotidyl cyclase activities of TIR1/AFB auxin receptors: new insights into the mechanism of auxin signaling","_id":"21255","quality_controlled":"1","publication":"Cryptic Enzymes and Moonlighting Proteins","department":[{"_id":"JiFr"}],"date_created":"2026-02-16T15:53:52Z","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["9780443157196"]},"month":"05","status":"public","author":[{"first_name":"Linlin","full_name":"Qi, Linlin","last_name":"Qi"},{"last_name":"Friml","full_name":"Friml, Jiří","orcid":"0000-0002-8302-7596","id":"4159519E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Jiří"}]},{"article_processing_charge":"Yes","DOAJ_listed":"1","oa":1,"oa_version":"Published Version","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1103/gdd5-rnh7","publication_status":"published","OA_place":"publisher","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2835-8279"]},"date_created":"2026-02-16T15:55:03Z","department":[{"_id":"AnSa"}],"title":"Nonequilibrium remodeling of collagen IV networks in Silico","_id":"21256","OA_type":"gold","intvolume":"         3","date_updated":"2026-02-17T13:37:38Z","file":[{"file_size":2277704,"date_created":"2026-02-17T13:36:01Z","success":1,"access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2025_PRXLife_Meadowcroft.pdf","date_updated":"2026-02-17T13:36:01Z","relation":"main_file","creator":"dernst","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"04cae5231d97e533145c493880fadbd9","file_id":"21308"}],"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Collagen IV is one of the main components of the basement membrane, a layer of material that lines the majority of tissues in multicellular organisms. Collagen IV molecules assemble into networks, providing stiffness and elasticity to tissues and informing cell and organ shape, especially during development. In this work, we develop two coarse-grained models for collagen IV molecules that retain biochemical bond specificity and coarse grain at different length scales. Through molecular-dynamics simulations, we test the assembly and mechanics of the resulting networks and measure their response to strain in terms of stress, microscopic alignment, and bond dynamics. Within the basement membrane, collagen IV networks rearrange by molecule turnover, which affects tissue organization and can be linked with enzyme activity. Here we explore network rearrangements via bond remodeling, the process of breaking and remaking of bonds between network molecules. We then investigate the effects of active (enzymatic) bond remodeling. We find that this nonequilibrium remodeling allows a network to keep its integrity under strain, while relaxing fully over a variety of timescales, a dynamic response that is unavailable to networks undergoing equilibrium remodeling."}],"volume":3,"article_number":"033019","PlanS_conform":"1","publisher":"American Physical Society","type":"journal_article","year":"2025","project":[{"name":"Non-Equilibrium Protein Assembly: from Building Blocks to Biological Machines","_id":"eba2549b-77a9-11ec-83b8-a81e493eae4e","call_identifier":"H2020","grant_number":"802960"},{"call_identifier":"H2020","name":"IST-BRIDGE: International postdoctoral program","_id":"fc2ed2f7-9c52-11eb-aca3-c01059dda49c","grant_number":"101034413"},{"_id":"349b6ff1-11ca-11ed-8bc3-f006047c2eeb","name":"EMBO Young Investigator Program - Andela Saric"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1103/gdd5-rnh7","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","day":"05","article_type":"original","status":"public","month":"09","ddc":["570"],"author":[{"id":"a4725fd6-932b-11ed-81e2-c098c7f37ae1","full_name":"Meadowcroft, Billie","orcid":"0000-0003-3441-1337","first_name":"Billie","last_name":"Meadowcroft"},{"last_name":"Sorichetti","first_name":"Valerio","full_name":"Sorichetti, Valerio","orcid":"0000-0002-9645-6576","id":"ef8a92cb-c7b6-11ec-8bea-e1fd5847bc5b"},{"last_name":"Ratajczyk","full_name":"Ratajczyk, Eryk","first_name":"Eryk"},{"last_name":"Perez Verdugo","first_name":"Fernanda L","full_name":"Perez Verdugo, Fernanda L","id":"4ecec223-9070-11ef-a0a9-bc76077bea8d"},{"first_name":"Nargess","full_name":"Khalilgharibi, Nargess","last_name":"Khalilgharibi"},{"last_name":"Mao","full_name":"Mao, Yanlan","first_name":"Yanlan"},{"first_name":"Ivan","orcid":" 0000-0002-8843-9485 ","full_name":"Palaia, Ivan","id":"9c805cd2-4b75-11ec-a374-db6dd0ed57fa","last_name":"Palaia"},{"id":"bf63d406-f056-11eb-b41d-f263a6566d8b","orcid":"0000-0002-7854-2139","full_name":"Šarić, Anđela","first_name":"Anđela","last_name":"Šarić"}],"publication":"PRX Life","quality_controlled":"1","ec_funded":1,"citation":{"mla":"Meadowcroft, Billie, et al. “Nonequilibrium Remodeling of Collagen IV Networks in Silico.” <i>PRX Life</i>, vol. 3, 033019, American Physical Society, 2025, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1103/gdd5-rnh7\">10.1103/gdd5-rnh7</a>.","short":"B.

Our work is motivated by experiments showing that standard loss-based fine-tuning methods are not able to achieve high accuracy in this setting, especially at high sparsity targets. To address this issue, we perform a detailed study of knowledge distillation losses for fine-tuning of sparse models. We determine an L2-based distillation approach that we term ‘SquareHead’, which enables accurate recovery even at higher sparsities. Investigating the question of efficient inference, we show that sparse LLMs can be executed faster by taking advantage of sparsity. Specifically, we exhibit end-to-end results showing speedups enabled by sparsity, while recovering accuracy, on the following models and tasks, respectively: T5 for language translation, Whisper for speech translation, and open GPT-type models such as the Mosaic Pre-Trained Transformer (MPT) and Llama-2 models for text generation. In particular, for popular generative tasks, we show for the first time that sparse fine-tuning can reach 75% sparsity without drops in accuracy, and provide notable end-to-end speedups for inference on CPUs. Moreover, we also highlight that sparsity is compatible with other compression approaches, such as quantization.","lang":"eng"}],"arxiv":1,"date_updated":"2026-02-19T09:26:54Z","OA_type":"green","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2025","type":"book_chapter","publisher":"Springer Nature"},{"quality_controlled":"1","publication":"PRX Life","issue":"4","author":[{"last_name":"Zhang","full_name":"Zhang, Chen Y","id":"81b43fb8-c9d5-11ef-bf68-ade532a1f204","first_name":"Chen Y"},{"last_name":"Rosa","full_name":"Rosa, Angelo","first_name":"Angelo"},{"last_name":"Sanguinetti","first_name":"Guido","full_name":"Sanguinetti, Guido"}],"status":"public","ddc":["570"],"month":"10","article_type":"original","day":"21","doi":"10.1103/gy1p-4256","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","external_id":{"arxiv":["2409.14425"]},"corr_author":"1","has_accepted_license":"1","acknowledgement":"G.S. acknowledges co-funding from Next Generation EU, in the context of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, Investment PE1 - Project FAIR “Future Artificial Intelligence Research”.

However, the quantitative relationship between this organization and nuclear biochemical processes remains under debate. In this study, we present a graph-based generative model, bioSBM, designed to capture long-range chromatin interaction patterns from Hi-C data and, importantly, simultaneously link these patterns to biochemical features. Applying bioSBM to Hi-C maps of the GM12878 lymphoblastoid cell line, we identified a latent structure of chromatin interactions, revealing seven distinct communities that strongly align with known biological annotations. Additionally, we infer a linear transformation that maps biochemical observables, such as histone marks, to the parameters of the generative graph model, enabling accurate genome-wide predictions of chromatin contact maps on out-of-sample data, both within the same cell line and on the completely unseen HCT116 cell line under RAD21 depletion. These findings highlight bioSBM's potential as a powerful tool for elucidating the relationship between biochemistry and chromatin architecture and predicting long-range genome organization from independent biochemical data.","lang":"eng"}],"file":[{"success":1,"date_created":"2026-02-18T07:57:39Z","file_size":1888053,"content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"76ddfee3efdb4c9d085059b5a142ed78","file_id":"21314","creator":"dernst","file_name":"2025_PRXLife_Zhang.pdf","access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2026-02-18T07:57:39Z","relation":"main_file"}],"date_updated":"2026-02-18T08:01:00Z","OA_type":"gold","intvolume":"         3"},{"date_published":"2025-11-18T00:00:00Z","acknowledgement":"We are grateful to Dmytro Kolisnyk for his help in working out the spectrum of the Hessian.

Often, this challenge is framed as a combinatorial optimization problem, for which a common strategy employs simulated annealing, a Monte Carlo (MC)-based algorithm that updates spins one at a time. Yet, these localized updates can cause the system to become trapped in local minima. Cluster algorithms (CAs) were developed to address this limitation and have demonstrated considerable success in studying ferromagnetic systems; however, they tend to encounter percolation issues when applied to generic spin glasses. In this work, we introduce a novel CA designed to tackle these challenges by leveraging precomputed two-point correlations, aiming solve combinatorial optimization problems in the form of Max-Cut more efficiently. In our approach, clusters are formed probabilistically based on these correlations. Various classical and quantum algorithms can be employed to generate correlations that embody information about the energy landscape of the problem. By utilizing this information, the algorithm aims to identify groups of spins whose simultaneous flipping induces large transitions in configuration space with high acceptance probability - even at low energy levels - thereby escaping local minima more effectively. Notably, clusters generated using correlations from the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm exhibit high acceptance rates at low temperatures. These acceptance rates often increase with circuit depth, accelerating the algorithm and enabling more efficient exploration of the solution space.","lang":"eng"}],"OA_type":"green","date_updated":"2026-02-18T08:45:56Z","conference":{"name":"QCE: International Conference on Quantum Computing and Engineering","start_date":"2025-08-30","location":"Albuquerque, NM, United States","end_date":"2025-09-05"},"year":"2025","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"IEEE","type":"conference","publication_status":"published","OA_place":"repository","oa_version":"Preprint","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1109/qce65121.2025.00033","oa":1,"article_processing_charge":"No","title":"Quantum-guided cluster algorithms for combinatorial optimization","_id":"21272","department":[{"_id":"MaSe"}],"date_created":"2026-02-17T08:00:17Z","publication_identifier":{"eisbn":["9798331557362"]},"citation":{"ama":"Eder PJ, Kerschbaumer A, Finžgar JR, et al.

Specifically, we focus on turn-based, multiplayer stochastic games played on graphs, where players are restricted to stationary strategies - strategies that use randomness but not memory.\r\nThe problem of deciding the constrained existence of stationary Nash equilibria - where each player’s payoff must lie within a given interval - is known to be ∃ℝ-complete in such a setting (Hansen and Sølvsten, 2020). We extend this line of work to stationary ε-Nash equilibria and present an algorithm that solves the following promise problem: given a game with a Nash equilibrium satisfying the constraints, compute an ε-Nash equilibrium that ε-satisfies those same constraints - satisfies the constraints up to an ε additive error. Our algorithm runs in FNP^NP time.\r\nTo achieve this, we first show that if a constrained Nash equilibrium exists, then one exists where the non-zero probabilities are at least an inverse of a double-exponential in the input. We further prove that such a strategy can be encoded using floating-point representations, as in the work of Frederiksen and Miltersen (2013), which finally gives us our FNP^NP algorithm. \r\nWe further show that the decision version of the promise problem is NP-hard. Finally, we show a partial tightness result by proving a lower bound for such techniques: if a constrained Nash equilibrium exists, then there must be one where the probabilities in the strategies are double-exponentially small."}],"arxiv":1,"page":"9:1-9:17","volume":360,"conference":{"name":"FSTTCS: Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science","end_date":"2025-12-19","location":"Pilani, India","start_date":"2025-12-17"},"date_updated":"2026-02-19T09:39:15Z","OA_type":"gold","intvolume":"       360","file":[{"creator":"dernst","file_id":"21316","checksum":"a66343e3ccc4a9cc5bc699c03d5764ff","content_type":"application/pdf","date_updated":"2026-02-18T09:13:25Z","relation":"main_file","file_name":"2025_FSTTCS_Asadi.pdf","access_level":"open_access","success":1,"file_size":1054007,"date_created":"2026-02-18T09:13:25Z"}],"department":[{"_id":"KrCh"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"_id":"21281","title":"ε-stationary Nash equilibria in multi-player stochastic graph games","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["9783959774062"]},"date_created":"2026-02-17T08:27:14Z","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.4230/lipics.fsttcs.2025.9","oa_version":"Published Version","OA_place":"publisher","publication_status":"published","article_processing_charge":"Yes","oa":1,"corr_author":"1","external_id":{"arxiv":["2508.15356"]},"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"date_published":"2025-12-09T00:00:00Z","file_date_updated":"2026-02-18T09:13:25Z","has_accepted_license":"1","acknowledgement":"This work is a part of project VAMOS that has received funding from the European\r\nResearch Council (ERC), grant agreement No 101020093.\r\n","citation":{"chicago":"Asadi, Ali, Leonard Brice, Krishnendu Chatterjee, and K.

For stars in particular, surface magnetism polarization that can be detected and measured with spectro-polarimetry. Many questions about these surface fields remain unanswered due to a lack of dedicated instruments capable of probing weak and strong surface magnetic fields for the entire mass range of stars, from M-dwarfs (and even substellar objects) to massive O-type stars at different evolutionary stages and metallicities. These questions range from the origin of these fields to their true incidence rate throughout the stellar population and the dependence on metallicity. Magnetic fields, although currently often excluded from stellar evolution models, play an important role in stellar evolution. Connecting the surface fields to internal fields through asteroseismology will instigate a new era of understanding stellar evolution and the transport of angular momentum and chemical elements throughout stellar interiors, also impacting our understanding of star-planet interactions and stellar remnants. Polarimetry is also an under-utilized tool to observationally constrain the mode identification of nonradial oscillations, which lies at the basis of accurate asteroseismic parameter estimation at percentage-level for stellar radii, masses, ages, internal rotation, and magnetic field strengths. Combining strong constraints on mode identification and surface magnetic properties through the acquisition of time-resolved, high-resolution and high-signal-to-noise (S/N) spectro-polarimetry and spectroscopy promises to bring leaps forward in our understanding of stellar structure, particularly when combined with long-term space photometric data from past, current, and future missions."}],"arxiv":1,"citation":{"ama":"Vandersnickt J, Armenta RO, Vanlaer V, et al.

Such short periods can only be reached if the donor star in the CV is either significantly evolved before initiating mass transfer to the WD or is metal-poor. We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of Gaia19bxc, a high-amplitude variable identified as a polar CV with an exceptionally short orbital period of 64.42 minutes—well below the canonical CV period minimum. High-speed photometry confirms persistent double-peaked variability consistent with cyclotron beaming, thus indicating the presence of a magnetic WD. Phase-resolved Keck/Low-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (LRIS) spectroscopy reveals strong hydrogen and helium emission lines but no donor features, indicating the accretor is a magnetic WD and the donor is hydrogen-rich, but cold and faint. The absence of a detectable donor and the low inferred temperature (≲3500 K) disfavor an evolved donor scenario. Instead, the short period and the system’s halo-like kinematics suggest Gaia19bxc may be the first known metal-poor polar. Because metal-poor donors are more compact than solar-metallicity donors of the same mass, they can reach shorter minimum periods. Gaia19bxc is one of only a handful of known metal-poor CVs below the canonical period minimum and has the shortest period of any such magnetic system discovered to date."}],"arxiv":1,"article_number":"L57","volume":990,"OA_type":"gold","date_updated":"2026-02-19T07:27:01Z","intvolume":"       990","file":[{"date_updated":"2026-02-19T07:24:10Z","relation":"main_file","file_name":"2025_AstrophysicalJournal_Galiullin.pdf","access_level":"open_access","file_id":"21329","checksum":"f76556d129aa0e9facc85602b0b5b54d","content_type":"application/pdf","creator":"dernst","date_created":"2026-02-19T07:24:10Z","file_size":3772189,"success":1}],"type":"journal_article","PlanS_conform":"1","publisher":"IOP Publishing","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2025","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/adff82","oa_version":"Published Version","OA_place":"publisher","publication_status":"published","article_processing_charge":"Yes","oa":1,"DOAJ_listed":"1","department":[{"_id":"IlCa"}],"_id":"21317","title":"Optical spectroscopy of the most compact accreting binary harboring a magnetic White Dwarf and a hydrogen-rich donor","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2041-8205"],"eissn":["2041-8213"]},"date_created":"2026-02-18T10:17:04Z"},{"citation":{"ieee":"M.

The wave function describing the motion of these objects must extend over a distance comparable to the slit separation, much larger than the characteristic size of the objects. Preparing such states for more massive objects, such as mechanical oscillators, remains an outstanding challenge. Here we delocalize the quantum ground state of an optically levitated nanosphere by modulating the stiffness of the confining potential. We show a more than threefold increase of the initial coherence length, which corresponds to mechanical momentum squeezing of more than 7 dB. Our work is a stepping stone toward the generation of coherence lengths comparable to the object size, a crucial regime for macroscopic quantum experiments."}],"date_updated":"2026-02-24T07:03:57Z","intvolume":"       135","OA_type":"green","year":"2025","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"American Physical Society","type":"journal_article","publication_status":"published","OA_place":"repository","oa_version":"Preprint","pmid":1,"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1103/2yzc-fsm3","oa":1,"article_processing_charge":"No","title":"Quantum delocalization of a levitated nanoparticle","_id":"21318","department":[{"_id":"JoFi"}],"date_created":"2026-02-18T10:19:30Z","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0031-9007"],"eissn":["1079-7114"]}},{"article_type":"original","day":"01","doi":"10.26599/nr.2025.94907072","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publication":"Nano Research","issue":"1","author":[{"first_name":"Shanshan","full_name":"Xiao, Shanshan","last_name":"Xiao"},{"last_name":"Zhao","first_name":"Mingjun","full_name":"Zhao, Mingjun"},{"full_name":"Li, Mingquan","first_name":"Mingquan","last_name":"Li"},{"last_name":"Wan","full_name":"Wan, Shanhong","first_name":"Shanhong"},{"last_name":"Genç","full_name":"Genç, Aziz","first_name":"Aziz"},{"last_name":"Huang","full_name":"Huang, Lulu","first_name":"Lulu"},{"first_name":"Lei","full_name":"Chen, Lei","last_name":"Chen"},{"full_name":"Zhang, Yu","first_name":"Yu","last_name":"Zhang"},{"last_name":"Ibáñez","first_name":"Maria","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843","full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria"},{"first_name":"Khak Ho","full_name":"Lim, Khak Ho","last_name":"Lim"},{"first_name":"Min","full_name":"Hong, Min","last_name":"Hong"},{"full_name":"Liu, Yu","first_name":"Yu","last_name":"Liu"},{"first_name":"Andreu","full_name":"Cabot, Andreu","last_name":"Cabot"}],"ddc":["540"],"month":"01","status":"public","citation":{"mla":"Xiao, Shanshan, et al. “Band and Defect Engineering in Solution-Processed Nanocrystal Building Blocks to Promote Transport Properties in Nanomaterials: The Case of Thermoelectric Cu            <sub>3</sub>SbSe            <sub>4</sub>.” <i>Nano Research</i>, vol. 18, no. 1, 94907072, Tsinghua University Press, 2025, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.26599/nr.2025.94907072\">10.26599/nr.2025.94907072</a>.","apa":"Xiao, S., Zhao, M., Li, M., Wan, S., Genç, A., Huang, L., … Cabot, A.

Our results reveal that a surface treatment using SnSe molecular complexes significantly enhances TE performance over atomic doping and nanocomposite formation, achieving a power factor of 1.1 mW·m−1·K−2 and a maximum dimensionless figure of merit zT value of 0.80 at 640 K, representing an excellent performance among Cu3SbSe4-based materials produced via solution-processing methods.

Higher load causes population numbers to decline, which reduces the efficiency of selection and further increases load, resulting in a positive feedback that may drive entire populations to extinction. Here, we investigate this eco-evolutionary feedback in a metapopulation consisting of local demes connected via migration, with individuals subject to deleterious mutation at a large number of loci. We first analyze the determinants of load under soft selection, where population sizes are fixed, and then build on this to understand hard selection, where population sizes and load coevolve. We show that under soft selection, very little gene flow (less than one migrant per generation) is enough to prevent fixation of deleterious alleles. By contrast, much higher levels of migration are required to mitigate load and prevent extinction when selection is hard, with critical migration thresholds for metapopulation persistence increasing sharply as the genome-wide deleterious mutation rate becomes comparable to the baseline population growth rate. Moreover, critical migration thresholds are highest if deleterious mutations have intermediate selection coefficients but lower if alleles are predominantly recessive rather than additive (due to more efficient purging of recessive load within local populations). Our analysis is based on a combination of analytical approximations and simulations, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing load and extinction in fragmented populations."}],"page":"617-636","volume":205,"date_updated":"2026-04-07T08:45:14Z","OA_type":"green","intvolume":"       205","department":[{"_id":"JaMa"},{"_id":"NiBa"}],"_id":"21322","title":"Genetic load, eco-evolutionary feedback, and extinction in metapopulations","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1537-5323"],"issn":["0003-0147"]},"date_created":"2026-02-18T10:47:18Z","pmid":1,"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1086/735562","oa_version":"Preprint","OA_place":"repository","publication_status":"published","article_processing_charge":"No","oa":1},{"department":[{"_id":"KrPi"}],"_id":"21323","title":"On extractability of the KZG family of polynomial commitment schemes","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0302-9743"],"eisbn":["9783032018878"],"eissn":["1611-3349"],"isbn":["9783032018861"]},"date_created":"2026-02-18T10:59:58Z","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-032-01887-8_19","oa_version":"Preprint","OA_place":"repository","publication_status":"published","article_processing_charge":"No","oa":1,"type":"conference","publisher":"Springer Nature","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"year":"2025","abstract":[{"text":"We present a unifying framework for proving the knowledge-soundness of KZG-like polynomial commitment schemes, encompassing both univariate and multivariate variants.

Central to our approach is the notion of a canonical Proof-of-Knowledge of a Polynomial (PoKoP) of a polynomial commitment scheme, which we use to capture the extractability notion required in constructions of practical zk-SNARKs. We further present an explicit polynomial decomposition lemma for multivariate polynomials, enabling a more direct analysis of interpolating extractors and bridging the gap between univariate and multivariate commitments. Our results provide the first standard-model proofs of extractability for the multivariate KZG scheme and many of its variants under falsifiable assumptions.","lang":"eng"}],"page":"584-616","volume":16005,"conference":{"location":"Santa Barbara, CA, United States","start_date":"2025-08-17","end_date":"2025-08-221","name":"CRYPTO: International Cryptology Conference"},"date_updated":"2026-02-19T07:50:33Z","OA_type":"green","intvolume":"     16005","publication":"45th Annual International Cryptology Conference","quality_controlled":"1","author":[{"last_name":"Belohorec","first_name":"Juraj","full_name":"Belohorec, Juraj"},{"last_name":"Dvořák","full_name":"Dvořák, Pavel","first_name":"Pavel"},{"last_name":"Hoffmann","orcid":"0000-0003-2027-5549","full_name":"Hoffmann, Charlotte","id":"0f78d746-dc7d-11ea-9b2f-83f92091afe7","first_name":"Charlotte"},{"full_name":"Hubáček, Pavel","first_name":"Pavel","last_name":"Hubáček"},{"full_name":"Mašková, Kristýna","first_name":"Kristýna","last_name":"Mašková"},{"first_name":"Martin","full_name":"Pastyřík, Martin","last_name":"Pastyřík"}],"month":"08","status":"public","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://eprint.iacr.org/2025/514"}],"day":"17","alternative_title":["LNCS"],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","doi":"10.1007/978-3-032-01887-8_19","date_published":"2025-08-17T00:00:00Z","acknowledgement":"Juraj Belohorec, Pavel Hubáček, and Kristýna Mašková were partially supported by the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (RVO 67985840), Czech Science Foundation GAČR grant No. 25-16311S, and by Zircuit.

To demystify this success, we investigate a gradient-based TTT algorithm for in-context learning, where we train a transformer model on the in-context demonstrations provided in the test prompt. Specifically, we provide a comprehensive theoretical characterization of linear transformers when the update rule is a single gradient step. Our theory (i) delineates the role of alignment between pretraining distribution and target task, (ii) demystifies how TTT can alleviate distribution shift, and (iii) quantifies the sample complexity of TTT including how it can significantly reduce the eventual sample size required for in-context learning. As our empirical contribution, we study the benefits of TTT for TabPFN, a tabular foundation model. In line with our theory, we demonstrate that TTT significantly reduces the required sample size for tabular classification (3 to 5 times fewer) unlocking substantial inference efficiency with a negligible training cost."}]},{"file_date_updated":"2026-02-19T08:56:10Z","acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the Israeli Science Foundation (ISF) grant number 1834/24.

However, current structure prediction methods predominantly yield a single conformation, overlooking the conformational heterogeneity revealed by diverse experimental modalities. Here, we present a framework for building experiment-grounded protein structure generative models that infer conformational ensembles consistent with measured experimental data. The key idea is to treat stateof-the-art protein structure predictors (e.g., AlphaFold3) as sequence-conditioned structural priors, and cast ensemble modeling as posterior inference of protein structures given experimental measurements. Through extensive real-data experiments, we demonstrate the generality of our method to incorporate a variety of experimental measurements. In particular, our framework uncovers previously unmodeled conformational heterogeneity from crystallographic densities, and generates high-accuracy NMR ensembles orders of magnitude faster than the status quo. Notably, we demonstrate that our ensembles outperform AlphaFold3 (Abramson et al., 2024) and sometimes better fit experimental data than publicly deposited structures to the Protein Data Bank (PDB, Burley et al. (2017)). We believe that this approach will unlock building predictive models that fully embrace experimentally observed conformational diversity."}],"date_created":"2026-02-18T12:11:17Z","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2640-3498"]},"title":"Inverse problems with experiment-guided AlphaFold","_id":"21327","department":[{"_id":"PaSc"},{"_id":"AlBr"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"oa":1,"article_processing_charge":"No","publication_status":"published","OA_place":"publisher","oa_version":"Published Version"},{"publication":"Proceedings of 38th Conference on Learning Theory","quality_controlled":"1","month":"07","status":"public","ddc":["000"],"author":[{"last_name":"Kovačević","full_name":"Kovačević, Filip","id":"d0258e7b-50b8-11ef-ad56-8b9f537b6b1b","first_name":"Filip"},{"full_name":"Yihan, Zhang","first_name":"Zhang","last_name":"Yihan"},{"first_name":"Marco","full_name":"Mondelli, Marco","orcid":"0000-0002-3242-7020","id":"27EB676C-8706-11E9-9510-7717E6697425","last_name":"Mondelli"}],"day":"01","alternative_title":["PMLR"],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","corr_author":"1","external_id":{"arxiv":["2502.01583"]},"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"date_published":"2025-07-01T00:00:00Z","has_accepted_license":"1","file_date_updated":"2026-02-19T09:03:43Z","acknowledgement":"This work was done when Y.

In this paper, we focus on recovering the subspace spanned by the signals via spectral estimators – a family of methods routinely used in practice, often as a warm-start for iterative algorithms. Our main technical contribution is a precise asymptotic characterization of the performance of spectral methods, when sample size and input dimension grow proportionally and the dimension p of the space to recover is fixed. Specifically, we locate the top-p eigenvalues of the spectral matrix and establish the overlaps between the corresponding eigenvectors (which give the spectral estimators) and a basis of the signal subspace. Our analysis unveils a phase transition phenomenon in which, as the sample complexity grows, eigenvalues escape from the bulk of the spectrum and, when that happens, eigenvectors recover directions of the desired subspace. The precise characterization we put forward enables the optimization of the data preprocessing, thus allowing to identify the spectral estimator that requires the minimal sample size for weak recovery.","lang":"eng"}],"volume":291,"page":"3354-3404","date_updated":"2026-02-19T09:03:53Z","OA_type":"gold","intvolume":"       291","conference":{"name":"COLT: Conference on Learning Theory","start_date":"2025-06-30","location":"Lyon, France","end_date":"2025-07-04"},"file":[{"success":1,"date_created":"2026-02-19T09:03:43Z","file_size":844611,"content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"19aa70ab4f57fb9067b6ebb99a5fd6f0","file_id":"21339","creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2025_LearningTheory_Kovacevic.pdf","date_updated":"2026-02-19T09:03:43Z","relation":"main_file"}]},{"quality_controlled":"1","publication":"TheoretiCS","status":"public","month":"04","ddc":["000"],"author":[{"first_name":"Tomáš","full_name":"Brázdil, Tomáš","last_name":"Brázdil"},{"full_name":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Krishnendu","last_name":"Chatterjee"},{"last_name":"Chmelik","first_name":"Martin","id":"3624234E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Chmelik, Martin"},{"last_name":"Forejt","full_name":"Forejt, Vojtěch","first_name":"Vojtěch"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-8122-2881","full_name":"Kretinsky, Jan","id":"44CEF464-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Jan","last_name":"Kretinsky"},{"first_name":"Marta","full_name":"Kwiatkowska, Marta","last_name":"Kwiatkowska"},{"first_name":"Tobias","full_name":"Meggendorfer, Tobias","orcid":"0000-0002-1712-2165","id":"b21b0c15-30a2-11eb-80dc-f13ca25802e1","last_name":"Meggendorfer"},{"last_name":"Parker","full_name":"Parker, David","first_name":"David"},{"last_name":"Ujma","first_name":"Mateusz","full_name":"Ujma, Mateusz"}],"day":"01","article_type":"original","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","doi":"10.46298/theoretics.25.10","external_id":{"arxiv":["2403.09184"]},"has_accepted_license":"1","acknowledgement":"This research was funded in part by the European Research Council (ERC) under grant agreement AdG-267989 (QUAREM)*, AdG-246967 (VERIWARE)*, StG-279307 (Graph Games)*\r\n, CoG-863818 (ForM-SMArt), and AdG-834115 (FUN2MODEL), by the EU FP7 project HIERATIC*, by the German Research Foundation (DFG) project 427755713 (GOPro), by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) projects S11402-N23 (RiSE)* , S11407-N23 (RiSE)*\r\n, and P23499-N23* , by the Czech Science Foundation grant No P202/12/P612* and GA23-06963S, by the MUNI Award in Science and Humanities (MUNI/I/1757/2021) of the Grant\r\nAgency of Masaryk University, by EPSRC project EP/K038575/1*, and by the Microsoft faculty fellows award*.

Our work builds on the previous results of Br{á}zdil et al., significantly extending it as well as refining several details and fixing errors.\r\nThe presented framework focuses on probabilistic reachability, which is a core problem in verification, and is instantiated in two distinct scenarios.\r\nThe first assumes that full knowledge of the MDP is available, in particular precise transition probabilities. It performs a heuristic-driven partial exploration of the model, yielding precise lower and upper bounds on the required probability. The second tackles the case where we may only sample the MDP without knowing the exact transition dynamics. Here, we obtain probabilistic guarantees, again in terms of both the lower and upper bounds, which provides efficient stopping criteria for the approximation. In particular, the latter is an extension of statistical model-checking (SMC) for unbounded properties in MDPs. In contrast to other related approaches, we do not restrict our attention to time-bounded (finite-horizon) or discounted properties, nor assume any particular structural properties of the MDP.","lang":"eng"}],"arxiv":1,"file":[{"file_id":"21417","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"2ccf563ae577ee08d82baf752292ca7b","creator":"dernst","relation":"main_file","date_updated":"2026-03-09T11:39:59Z","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2026_TheoretiCS_Brazdil.pdf","success":1,"date_created":"2026-03-09T11:39:59Z","file_size":861607}],"OA_type":"gold","date_updated":"2026-03-09T11:43:38Z","intvolume":"         4"},{"intvolume":"       112","OA_type":"green","date_updated":"2026-03-16T08:22:16Z","extern":"1","arxiv":1,"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Several optical experiments have shown that in magnetic materials, the principal axes of response tensors can rotate as an odd function of an applied magnetic field. Here we offer a microscopic explanation of this effect, and we propose a closely related dc transport phenomenon—an off-diagonal symmetric conductivity, linear and odd in a magnetic field, which we refer to as linear magnetoconductivity (LMC). Although LMC has the same functional dependence on a magnetic field as the Hall effect, its origin is fundamentally different: LMC requires time-reversal symmetry to be broken even before a magnetic field is applied, and is therefore a sensitive probe of magnetism. We demonstrate LMC in three different ways: via a tight-binding toy model, a density functional theory calculation on MnPSe3, and a semiclassical treatment. The third approach identifies two distinct mechanisms yielding LMC: momentum-dependent band magnetization and Berry curvature. Finally, we propose an experimental geometry suitable for detecting LMC, and we demonstrate its applicability using Landauer-Büttiker simulations. Our results emphasize the importance of measuring the full conductivity tensor in magnetic materials, and they introduce LMC as a new transport probe of symmetry."}],"volume":112,"article_number":"134407","publisher":"American Physical Society","type":"journal_article","year":"2025","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","oa":1,"oa_version":"Preprint","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1103/33ns-8gwj","publication_status":"published","OA_place":"repository","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2469-9969"],"issn":["2469-9950"]},"date_created":"2026-03-11T10:37:59Z","title":"Linear magnetoconductivity as a probe of time-reversal symmetry breaking","_id":"21431","citation":{"chicago":"Sunko, Veronika, C.
