  text: Generative models have advanced significantly in sampling material systems
    with continuous variables, such as atomistic structures. However, their application
    to discrete variables, like atom types or spin states, remains underexplored.
    In this work, we introduce a discrete flow matching model, tailored for systems
    with discrete phase-space coordinates (e.g., the Ising model or a multicomponent
    system on a lattice). This approach enables a single model to sample free energy
    surfaces over a wide temperature range with minimal training overhead, and the
    model generation is scalable to larger lattice sizes than those in the training
    set. We demonstrate our approach on the 2D Ising model, showing efficient and
    reliable free energy sampling. These results highlight the potential of flow matching
    for low-cost, scalable free energy sampling in discrete systems and suggest promising
    extensions to alchemical degrees of freedom in crystalline materials. The codebase
    developed for this work is openly available at https://github.com/tuoping/alchemicalFES.

  text: "Cropland cultivation is fundamental to food security and plays a crucial
    role in the global water, energy, and carbon cycles. However, our understanding
    of how climate change will impact cropland functions is still limited. This knowledge
    gap is partly due to the simplifications made in terrestrial biosphere models
    (TBMs), which often overlook essential agricultural management practices such
    as irrigation and fertilizer application and simplify critical physiological crop
    processes.\r\nHere, we demonstrate how, with minor, parsimonious enhancements
    to the TBM T&C, it is possible to accurately represent a complex cropland system.
    Our modified model, T&C-CROP, incorporates realistic agricultural management practices,
    including complex crop rotations and irrigation and fertilization regimes, along
    with their effects on soil biogeochemical cycling. We successfully validate T&C-CROP
    across four distinct agricultural sites, encompassing diverse cropping systems
    such as multi-crop rotations, monoculture, and managed grassland.\r\nA comprehensive
    validation of T&C-CROP was conducted, encompassing water, energy, and carbon fluxes;
    leaf area index (LAI); and organ-specific yields. Our model effectively captured
    the heterogeneity in daily land surface energy balances across crop sites, achieving
    coefficients of determination of 0.77, 0.48, and 0.87 for observed versus simulated
    net radiation (Rn), sensible heat flux (H), and latent heat flux (LE), respectively.
    Seasonal, crop-specific gross primary production (GPP) was simulated with an average
    absolute bias of less than 10 %. Peak-season LAI was accurately represented, with
    an r2 of 0.67. Harvested yields (above-ground biomass, grain, and straw) were
    generally simulated within 10 %–20 % accuracy of observed values, although inter-annual
    variations in crop-specific growth were difficult to capture."

  text: "The implementation of future geoengineering projects to counteract global
    warming trends or more generally changes in aerosol loads alter solar radiation
    reaching the Earth's surface. These changes could have effects on ecohydrological
    systems with impacts which are still poorly quantified. Here, we compute how changes
    in solar radiation affect global and local near-surface meteorological variables
    by using CMIP6 model results. Using climate model outputs, we compute climate
    sensitivities to solar radiation alterations. These sensitivities are then applied
    to local observations and used to construct two sets of numerical experiments:
    the first focuses on solar radiation changes only, and the second systematically
    modifies precipitation, air temperature, specific humidity, and wind speed using
    the CMIP6-derived sensitivities to radiation changes, i.e., including its land–atmosphere
    feedback. We use those scenarios as input to a mechanistic ecohydrological model
    to quantify the local responses of the energy and water budgets as well as vegetation
    productivity spanning different biomes and climates.\r\nIn the absence of land–atmosphere
    feedback, changes in solar radiation tend to reflect mostly in sensible heat changes,
    with minor effects on the hydrological cycle, and vegetation productivity correlates
    linearly with changes in solar radiation. When land–atmosphere feedback is included,
    changes in latent heat and hydrological variables are much more pronounced, mostly
    because of the temperature and vapor pressure deficit changes associated with
    solar radiation changes. Vegetation productivity tends to have an asymmetric response
    with a considerable decrease in gross primary production to a radiation reduction
    not accompanied by a similar increase at higher radiation. These results provide
    important insights into how ecosystems could respond to potential future changes
    in shortwave radiation including solar geoengineering programs."

  text: "Urbanization is projected to add 2.5 billion more urban residents by 2050.
    The resulting increases in impervious surfaces leads to altered hydrologic processes
    through greater runoff and reduced transpiration. Urban landscapes, characterized
    by heterogeneous land covers and infiltration rates, complicates the modeling
    of the urban water cycle. Existing models tend to focus on event-scale floods
    and thereby overlooking long-term hydrological alterations, as they often oversimplify
    hydrological processes such as soil moisture dynamics or evapotranspiration.\r\nAccurately
    projecting the long-term hydrological budget over cities is essential to better
    understand water resources availability for water sensitive urban design and to
    guide urban greening initiatives with the purpose of improving urban water management.
    Using Singapore —a densely populated tropical city-state committed to water harvesting—
    as a testbed, this study compares two modeling approaches to resolve the long-term
    urban hydrological budget. The Urban Tethys & Chloris (UT&C) model offers realistic
    representations of urban features, microclimate and hydrology, although it is
    computationally intensive. In contrast, the Tethys & Chloris (T&C) model, originally
    developed for natural environments, modified here to incorporate simplified urban
    features, is simpler and faster allowing fully distributed simulations.\r\nFindings
    suggest that while UT&C results may offer a more reliable representation at local
    scales, accounting for microclimatic feedback and two-dimensional urban geometries,
    both models yield similar hydrological budget insights when integrated at the
    city scale – at least in the wet climate of Singapore. Vegetation fraction emerges
    as the primary control on total evapotranspiration. T&C’s reduced computational
    demand, and native support for distributed hydrological modeling make it well-suited
    for city-wide simulations. The overall study underscores the complexities and
    feasibility of modeling long-term hydrological processes in urban environments."

  text: Persistent multiyear drought (MYD) events pose a growing threat to nature
    and humans in a changing climate. We identified and inventoried global MYDs by
    detecting spatiotemporally contiguous climatic anomalies, showing that MYDs have
    become drier, hotter, and led to increasingly diminished vegetation greenness.
    The global terrestrial land affected by MYDs has increased at a rate of 49,279
    ± 14,771 square kilometers per year from 1980 to 2018. Temperate grasslands have
    exhibited the greatest declines in vegetation greenness during MYDs, whereas boreal
    and tropical forests have had comparably minor responses. With MYDs becoming more
    common, this global quantitative inventory of the occurrence, severity, trend,
    and impact of MYDs provides an important benchmark for facilitating more effective
    and collaborative preparedness toward mitigation of and adaptation to such extreme
    events.

  text: "The recent surge in reservoir construction has increased global surface water
    storage, with Mainland\r\nSoutheast Asia (MSEA) being a significant hotspot. Such
    infrastructural evolution demands updates in water\r\nmanagement strategies and
    hydrological models. However, information on actual reservoir storage is hard
    to\r\nacquire, especially for transboundary river basins. To date, no high-resolution
    spatiotemporal dataset on absolute\r\nstorage time series is available for reservoirs
    in MSEA. To address this gap, we present (1) a comprehensive openaccess database
    of absolute storage time series (sub-monthly) for 186 reservoirs (larger than
    0.1 km3) in MSEA\r\nspanning the period 1985–2023 and (2) an analysis of the reservoir
    storage dynamics. This dataset is derived\r\nfrom remote sensing observations,
    integrating satellite-based water surface area extraction from high-resolution\r\n(30
    m) images and area–elevation–storage (A–E–S) relationships to estimate reservoir
    level and storage dynamics. The MSEA database includes static (area–elevation–storage
    curves, water frequency, and reservoir extent)\r\nand dynamic (area, water level,
    and absolute storage time series) components for each reservoir. The 186 reservoirs
    collectively store around 175 km3 of water, with a minimum of 140 km3 and a maximum
    of 210 km3. They\r\ncover an average area of 8700 km2, ranging from a minimum
    of 6500 km2 to a maximum of 10 000 km2. We show that the combined average reservoir
    storage increased from 70 to 160 km3 (+130 %) from 2008 to 2017, primarily contributed
    by reservoirs in the Irrawaddy, Red, Upper Mekong, and Lower Mekong basins. Our
    in situ validation provides a good match between estimated storage and in situ
    observations, with 50 % of the validation sites (10 out of 20) showing an R2 >
    0.7 and an average nRMSE < 14 %. The indirect validation (based on altimetry-converted
    storage) shows even better results, with an R2 > 0.7 and an average nRMSE < 12
    % for 70 % (14 out of 20) of the reservoirs. Furthermore, the analysis of the
    2019–2020 drought event in the MSEA region reveals that nearly 30 %–40 % of the
    region experienced more than 5 months of drought, with the most significant impact
    on reservoirs in Cambodia and Thailand. As a result, storage departures ranged
    by up to −40 % in some reservoirs, highlighting significant impacts on water availability.
    Overall, this analysis demonstrates the potential of the inferred storage time
    series for assessing real-life water-related problems in Mainland Southeast Asia,
    with the possibility of applying the method to estimate reservoir storage time
    series in other parts of the world. The reservoir storage database in Mainland
    Southeast Asia (MSEA-Res database) and the associated Python code are publicly
    available on Zenodo at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14844580 (Mahto et al.,
    2025)."

  text: 'Urban expansion alters landscape structure and hydrological processes, heightening
    pluvial flood risks in cities worldwide. This study integrates multi-temporal
    urban expansion data with the CAFlood cellular automata model to simulate rainfall
    events with multiple return periods (i.e., 1-in-10, 1-in-100, and 1-in-200 year
    return periods) across three different urban environments: Shenzhen (China), suburban
    Houston (United States), and Lausanne (Switzerland). To quantify how evolving
    urban morphology drives flood volume, we computed key landscape metrics describing
    impervious extent (percentage of impervious surface), green space shape complexity
    (Area-weighted Mean Shape Index), green space aggregation (Aggregation Index),
    and impervious edge complexity (Landscape Shape Index). Their effects on changes
    in flood volume were analysed with Generalised Additive Models stratified by levels
    of pre-expansion impervious cover. The results show that decreasing green space
    aggregation and impervious edge complexity are consistently significant indicators
    of increased flood volumes, particularly in areas with low pre-expansion impervious
    cover (<50 %). However, the influence of these two key morphological indicators
    decline as impervious coverage increases, with total imperviousness gradually
    becoming the dominant factor. Sensitivity experiments with synthetic urban fabrics
    confirm that maintaining compact, well-connected green spaces can limit the increase
    in flood volume even with when impervious surfaces expand equally. By explicitly
    linking the morphological changes in urban form to pluvial flood response across
    diverse climates and urbanisation context, this study moves beyond static approaches
    and provides actionable insights for planning flood-resilient urban growth.'

  text: Increasing urban tree cover is a common strategy to lower urban temperatures
    and indirectly the building energy demand for air-conditioning (AC). However,
    urban vegetation leads to increasing humidity with potential negative effects
    on the AC dehumidification loads in hot-humid climates, an effect that has so
    far been unexplored. Here, we included a building energy model into the urban
    ecohydrological model Urban Tethys-Chloris (UT&C-BEM) to quantify the AC energy
    reduction effects of trees in seven hot cities with varying background humidity.
    A numerical experiment was performed simulating various urban densities and tree
    cover scenarios in the city-climates of Riyadh, Phoenix, Dubai, New Delhi, Singapore,
    Lagos, and Tokyo. The relative contribution of tree shade, air temperature reduction,
    and humidity increase on the AC energy reduction was further quantified. We found
    that well-watered trees provide the largest average summer AC energy reduction
    of −17% in the hot-dry climate (Riyadh, Phoenix). As tree shade is the dominant
    factor leading to the AC energy reduction in all city-climates, humid cities also
    show an average summer AC energy reduction ranging from −6% to −9%. However, increasing
    humidity is affecting AC dehumidification loads, especially under higher ventilation
    rates in humid climates and in these cities, AC energy reduction is most efficient
    with up to 40% tree cover. Additionally, we found that trees effectively reduce
    peak AC energy consumption due to higher shading effects in those hours. These
    results can inform urban planning strategies to maximize reduction in the AC energy
    demand using urban trees.

  text: Prenatal immune challenges pose significant risks to human embryonic brain
    and eye development. However, our knowledge about the safe usage of anti-inflammatory
    drugs during pregnancy is still limited. While human induced pluripotent stem
    cells (hIPSC)-derived brain organoid models have started to explore functional
    consequences upon viral stimulation, these models commonly lack microglia, which
    are susceptible to and promote inflammation. Furthermore, microglia are actively
    involved in neuronal development. Here, we generate hIPSC-derived microglia precursor
    cells and assemble them into retinal organoids. Once the outer plexiform layer
    forms, these hIPSC-derived microglia (iMG) fully integrate into the retinal organoids.
    Since the ganglion cell survival declines by this time in 3D-retinal organoids,
    we adapted the model into 2D and identify that the improved ganglion cell number
    significantly decreases only with iMG presence. In parallel, we applied the immunostimulant
    POLY(I:C) to mimic a fetal viral infection. While POLY(I:C) exposure alters the
    iMG phenotype, it does not hinder their interaction with ganglion cells. Furthermore,
    iMG significantly enhance the supernatant’s inflammatory secretome and increase
    retinal cell proliferation. Simultaneous exposure with the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
    drug (NSAID) ibuprofen dampens POLY(I:C)-mediated changes of the iMG phenotype
    and ameliorates cell proliferation. Remarkably, while POLY(I:C) disrupts neuronal
    calcium dynamics independent of iMG, ibuprofen rescues this effect only if iMG
    are present. Mechanistically, ibuprofen targets the enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 and
    2 (COX1/PTGS1 and COX2/PTGS2) simultaneously, from which iMG mainly express COX1.
    Selective COX1 blockage fails to restore the calcium peak amplitude upon POLY(I:C)
    stimulation, suggesting ibuprofen’s beneficial effect depends on the presence
    and interplay of COX1 and COX2. These findings underscore the importance of microglia
    in the context of prenatal immune challenges and provide insight into the mechanisms
    by which ibuprofen exerts its protective effects during embryonic development.

  text: "Prenatal immune challenges pose significant risks to human embryonic brain
    and eye development. However, we still lack knowledge about the safe usage of
    anti-inflammatory drugs during pregnancy. Human induced pluripotent stem cell
    (hIPSC)-derived brain organoid models provide a unique opportunity to investigate
    neuronal development and have started to explore functional consequences upon
    viral infection. However, brain organoids usually lack microglia, the brain-resident
    immune cells. They are present in the early human embryonic brain and actively
    participate in neuronal circuit development. At the same time, microglia are known
    for their immune-sensing properties and will influence viral-mediated effects.
    In my thesis, I was interested to study the multifunctional role of human microglia
    during retinal development. \r\nIn chapter 1, I characterize the innate occurrence
    of IBA1+-microglia-like cells within the retinal organoid differentiation (Bartalska
    et al., 2022). Therefore, we differentiate hIPSC using an unguided retinal organoid
    differentiation protocol and observe the presence of IBA1+-microglia-like cells
    alongside retinal cups between week 3 and 4 in 2.5D culture. However, instead
    of infiltrating the neuroectodermal sides, they enrich within non-pigmented, 3D-cystic
    compartments that develop in low numbers parallel to 3D-retinal organoids. To
    enrich for IBA1+-microglia precursors (preMG), we guided the differentiation with
    a low-dosed BMP4 application, which prevents retinal cup development and enhances
    microglia and 3D-cysts formation. We characterize the differentiated preMG for
    their microglia-like identity and validated their functionality. In parallel,
    mass spectrometry identifies the 3D-cysts to express mesenchymal and epithelial
    markers. We confirm that comparable 3D-cysts are also the preferential environment
    for IBA1+-microglia-like cells within the unguided retinal organoid differentiation.
    \r\nIn chapter 2, I investigate how microglia influence retinal development and
    whether they contribute to viral-mediated consequences (Schmied et al., 2025).
    Here, we assemble preMG, which we have characterized in chapter 1, into 3D-retinal
    organoids. Once the outer plexiform layer forms, microglia-like cells (iMG) populate
    them and interact with retinal cell types. However, at this developmental stage,
    the ganglion cell number decreases in 3D-retinal organoids. Thus, we adapted the
    model into 2D which promotes their survival. Integrated iMG engulf ganglion cells
    and control their cell number. In parallel, we apply the immunostimulant POLY(I:C)
    to mimic a fetal viral infection. Although POLY(I:C) stimulation affects iMG phenotype,
    it does not influence their interaction with ganglion cells. Furthermore, iMG
    presence significantly contributes to the supernatant’s inflammatory secretome
    and increases retinal cell proliferation. Simultaneous exposure to the non-steroidal
    anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ibuprofen dampens POLY(I:C)-mediated consequences
    of the iMG phenotype and ameliorates cell proliferation. Remarkably, while POLY(I:C)
    disrupts neuronal calcium dynamics independent of iMG presence, ibuprofen rescues
    this effect only in the presence of iMG. Mechanistically, ibuprofen blocks the
    enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (COX1/ PTGS1 and COX2/ PTGS2) simultaneously, from
    which iMG predominantly express COX1. Selective inhibition of COX1 does not restore
    the calcium peak amplitude upon POLY(I:C) stimulation, indicating ibuprofen’s
    effect depends on the presence and interplay of both, COX1 and COX2. \r\nIn summary,
    we characterized the 3D-retinal organoid model for the occurrence of IBA1+-microglia
    like cells. As the innately developing IBA1+-cells enrich in mesenchymal over
    retinal structures, we optimized a protocol to differentiate IBA1+-microglia precursors.
    By combining these two models we generate microglia-assembled retinal organoids.
    Our results underscore the importance of microglia during neurodevelopment, in
    the context of prenatal immune challenges and provide insight into the mechanisms
    by which ibuprofen exerts its protective effects during embryonic development."

  text: Safety and liveness stand as fundamental concepts in formal languages, playing
    a key role in verification. The safety-liveness classification of boolean properties
    characterizes whether a given property can be falsified by observing a finite
    prefix of an infinite computation trace (always for safety, never for liveness).
    In the quantitative setting, properties are arbitrary functions from infinite
    words to partially-ordered domains. Extending this paradigm to the quantitative
    domain, where properties are arbitrary functions mapping infinite words to partially-ordered
    domains, we introduce and study the notions of quantitative safety and liveness.
    First, we formally define quantitative safety and liveness, and prove that our
    definitions induce conservative quantitative generalizations of both the safety-progress
    hierarchy and the safety-liveness decomposition of boolean properties. Consequently,
    like their boolean counterparts, quantitative properties can be min-decomposed
    into safety and liveness parts, or alternatively, max-decomposed into co-safety
    and co-liveness parts. We further establish a connection between quantitative
    safety and topological continuity and provide alternative characterizations of
    quantitative safety and liveness in terms of their boolean analogs. Second, we
    instantiate our framework with the specific classes of quantitative properties
    expressed by automata. These quantitative automata contain finitely many states
    and rational-valued transition weights, and their common value functions Inf,
    Sup, LimInf, LimSup, LimInfAvg, LimSupAvg, and DSum map infinite words into the
    totally-ordered domain of real numbers. For all common value functions, we provide
    a procedure for deciding whether a given automaton is safe or live, we show how
    to construct its safety closure, and we present a min-decomposition into safe
    and live automata.

  text: "Quantitative properties offer a framework for specifying and verifying system
    behaviors beyond the traditional boolean perspective. For example, while a boolean
    property may specify whether a server eventually grants every request it receives,
    a quantitative one may map each server execution to its average response time.
    This quantitative view is relatively well-studied in the context of static verification.
    However, although such properties often appear in practice as performance or robustness
    measures in a dynamic verification context, a general theoretical framework for
    their analysis and classification from a monitoring perspective is still missing.\r\n\r\nIn
    this thesis, we aim to develop such a framework that takes resource-precision
    tradeoffs of monitors as a central consideration. We present the first theory
    of monitorability for quantitative properties where monitors can be naturally
    approximate and compared regarding their precision and resource use. In particular,
    we show that additional monitor resources such as registers or states lead to
    strictly better approximations for some properties. To enable such analyses in
    a machine-model independent way, we describe an abstract notion of monitors that
    can be instantiated with concrete models of monitors. Within this framework, we
    study how abstract monitors behave and identify classes of properties amenable
    to approximate monitoring with resource-precision considerations. We then extend
    the boolean safety-liveness dichotomy and safety-progress hierarchy to the quantitative
    setting with a monitoring perspective. In particular, we prove that every property
    is the pointwise minimum of a safety property and a liveness property, and properties
    that are both safe and co-safe can be approximately monitored arbitrarily precisely
    using only finitely many states. We also study the classes of quantitative properties
    definable by finite-state quantitative automata and provide algorithms for deciding
    their safety or liveness as well as their safety-liveness decompositions. Finally,
    we present the first general-purpose tool for automating the analysis, verification,
    and monitoring of quantitative automata.\r\n\r\n\r\n"

  text: "Decades of research on the Mekong River basin have vastly expanded our knowledge
    of key hydrological and\r\necological processes, in part thanks to the development
    of modelling tools. However, few of these models are\r\nopenly available to the
    research community or adhere to FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable)\r\nprinciples,
    particularly in the domain of hydrology, in turn limiting transparency, reproducibility,
    and broader\r\nscientific engagement. Here, we address this gap and introduce
    VIC-Res Mekong, an open-source hydrologicalwater management model for the Mekong
    River basin. The model is implemented over a spatial domain\r\nof ∼630,000 km2
    and has a resolution of 0.0625 degrees. Water and energy budgets are simulated
    with\r\nthe Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model, while streamflow routing
    is simulated with VIC-Res, which\r\nexplicitly accounts for the storage and release
    dynamics of reservoirs. This is of key importance for a basin\r\nlike the Mekong,
    where the active storage capacity of dams has increased from 20 km3 to nearly
    80 km3 in the past fifteen years. To this purpose, VIC-Res Mekong integrates information
    from a database containing reservoir storage time series (inferred from satellite
    images) for 129 dams that accounts for more than 90% of total storage capacity.
    These data support both hindcast simulations and the derivation of reservoir operating
    rules, enabling a flexible and realistic representation of dam operations that
    allows to characterize in detail dam-induced hydrological alterations."

  text: Extreme rainfall events that break previous records are occurring more frequently
    worldwide, leading to severe flooding and infrastructure damage. Conventional
    flood design approaches, based on extreme value analysis (EVA) of limited historical
    data, often fail to anticipate such unprecedented extremes. Here, we present a
    stochastic approach that leverages the Advanced Weather Generator (AWE-GEN) to
    simulate a large ensemble of 100-year hourly rainfall time series, explicitly
    accounting for internal climate variability. By excluding the record-breaking
    event year during calibration, we assess the ability of our proposed method to
    reproduce unseen record-breaking events. We evaluated this approach using data
    from 2703 rain stations across nine countries. Our results show that the stochastic
    approach captures record-breaking events more reliably than EVA, achieving success
    rates exceeding 85% for 3–12-hour durations at a 100-year return period threshold.
    This framework provides a more robust way for estimating rainfall extremes and
    supports the design of resilient infrastructure under deep uncertainty.

  text: 'Living systems are characterized by controlled flows of matter, energy, and
    information. While the biophysics community has productively engaged with the
    first two, addressing information flows has been more challenging, with some scattered
    success in evolutionary theory and a more coherent track record in neuroscience.
    Nevertheless, interdisciplinary work of the past two decades at the interface
    of biophysics, quantitative biology, and engineering has led to an emerging mathematical
    language for describing information flows at the molecular scale. This is where
    the central processes of life unfold: from detection and transduction of environmental
    signals to the readout or copying of genetic information and the triggering of
    adaptive cellular responses. Such processes are coordinated by complex biochemical
    reaction networks that operate at room temperature, are out of equilibrium, and
    use low copy numbers of diverse molecular species with limited interaction specificity.
    Here we review how flows of information through biochemical networks can be formalized
    using information-theoretic quantities, quantified from data, and computed within
    various modeling frameworks. Optimization of information flows is presented as
    a candidate design principle that navigates the relevant time, energy, crosstalk,
    and metabolic constraints to predict reliable cellular signaling and gene regulation
    architectures built of individually noisy components.'

  text: 'During embryonic development, cell behaviors need to be tightly regulated
    in time and space. Yet how the temporal and spatial regulations of cell behaviors
    are interconnected during embryonic development remains elusive. To address this,
    we turned to zebrafish gastrulation, the process whereby dynamic cell behaviors
    generate the three principal germ layers of the early embryo. Here, we show that
    Hoxb cluster genes are expressed in a temporally collinear manner at the blastoderm
    margin, where mesodermal and endodermal (mesendoderm) progenitor cells are specified
    and ingress to form mesendoderm/hypoblast. Functional analysis shows that these
    Hoxb genes regulate the timing of cell ingression: under- or overexpression of
    Hoxb genes perturb the timing of mesendoderm cell ingression and, consequently,
    the positioning of these cells along the forming anterior-posterior body axis
    after gastrulation. Finally, we found that Hoxb genes control the timing of mesendoderm
    ingression by regulating cellular bleb formation and cell surface fluctuations
    in the ingressing cells. Collectively, our findings suggest that Hoxb genes interconnect
    the temporal and spatial pattern of cell behaviors during zebrafish gastrulation
    by controlling cell surface fluctuations.'

  text: We develop a heuristic for the density of integer points on affine cubic surfaces.
    Our heuristic applies to smooth surfaces defined by cubic polynomials that are
    log K3, but it can also be adjusted to handle singular cubic surfaces. We compare
    our heuristic to Heath-Brown’s prediction for sums of three cubes, as well as
    to asymptotic formulae in the literature around Zagier’s work on the Markoff cubic
    surface, and work of Baragar and Umeda on further surfaces of Markoff-type. We
    also test our heuristic against numerical data for several families of cubic surfaces.
acknowledgement: "The authors owe a debt of thanks to Yonatan Harpaz for asking about
  circle method heuristics for log K3 surfaces. His contribution to the resulting
  discussion is gratefully acknowledged. Thanks are also due to Andrew Sutherland
  for help with numerical data for the equation x^3 + y^3 + z^3 = 1, together with
  Alex Gamburd, Amit Ghosh, Peter Sarnak and Matteo Verzobio for their interest in
  this paper. Special thanks are due to Victor Wang for helpful conversations about
  the circle method heuristics and to the anonymous referee for several useful comments.
  While working on this paper, the authors were supported by a FWF grant (DOI 10.55776/P32428),
