  text: New populations of red active galactic nuclei (known as “little red dots”)
    discovered by JWST exhibit remarkable spectral energy distributions. Leveraging
    X-ray through far-infrared observations of two of the most luminous known little
    red dots, we directly measure their bolometric luminosities. We find evidence
    that more than half of the bolometric luminosity likely emerges in the rest-frame
    optical, with Lbol/L5100 = 5, roughly half the value for “standard” active galactic
    nuclei. Meanwhile, the X-ray emitting corona, UV-emitting blackbody, and reprocessed
    mid to far-infrared emission are all considerably subdominant, assuming that the
    far-infrared luminosity is well below current measured limits. We present new
    bolometric corrections that dramatically lower inferred bolometric luminosities
    by a factor of 10 compared to published values in the literature. These bolometric
    corrections are in accord with expectations from models in which gas absorption
    and reprocessing are responsible for the red rest-frame optical colors of little
    red dots. We discuss how this lowered luminosity scale suggests a lower mass scale
    for the population by at least an order of magnitude (e.g., ∼105–107 M⊙ black
    holes, and ∼108 M⊙ galaxies), alleviating tensions with clustering, overmassive
    black holes, and the integrated black hole mass density in the Universe.

  text: Robust Markov Decision Processes (RMDPs) generalize classical MDPs that consider
    uncertainties in transition probabilities by defining a set of possible transition
    functions. An objective is a set of runs (or infinite trajectories) of the RMDP,
    and the value for an objective is the maximal probability that the agent can guarantee
    against the adversarial environment. We consider (a) reachability objectives,
    where given a target set of states, the goal is to eventually arrive at one of
    them; and (b) parity objectives, which are a canonical representation for ω-regular
    objectives. The qualitative analysis problem asks whether the objective can be
    ensured with probability 1. In this work, we study the qualitative problem for
    reachability and parity objectives on RMDPs without making any assumption over
    the structures of the RMDPs, e.g., unichain or aperiodic. Our contributions are
    twofold. We first present efficient algorithms with oracle access to uncertainty
    sets that solve qualitative problems of reachability and parity objectives. We
    then report experimental results demonstrating the effectiveness of our oracle-based
    approach on classical RMDP examples from the literature scaling up to thousands
    of states.

  text: "In this paper, we consider the big algebra recently introduced by Hausel
    for the GLn-action on the coordinate ring of the matrix space Mat(n,r). In particular,
    we obtain explicit formulas for the big algebra generators in terms of differential
    operators with polynomial coefficients. We show that big algebras in type A are
    commutative and relate them to the Bethe subalgebra in the Yangian Y(gln). We
    apply these results to big algebras of symmetric powers of the standard representation
    of GLn.\r\n."

  text: "We develop a new algorithmic framework for designing approximation algorithms
    for cut-based optimization problems on capacitated undirected graphs that undergo
    edge insertions and deletions. Specifically, our framework dynamically maintains
    a variant of the hierarchical \U0001D457-tree decomposition of [Madry FOCS’10],
    achieving a poly-logarithmic approximation factor to the graph’s cut structure
    and supporting edge updates in \U0001D442⁡(\U0001D45B\U0001D700) amortized update
    time, for any arbitrarily small constant \U0001D700 ∈(0,1).\r\nConsequently, we
    obtain new trade-offs between approximation and update/query time for fundamental
    cut-based optimization problems in the fully dynamic setting, including all-pairs
    minimum cuts, sparsest cut, multi-way cut, and multi-cut. For the last three problems,
    these trade-offs give the first fully-dynamic algorithms achieving poly-logarithmic
    approximation in sub-linear time per operation.\r\nThe main technical ingredient
    behind our dynamic hierarchy is a dynamic cut-sparsifier algorithm that can handle
    vertex splits with low recourse. This is achieved by white-boxing the dynamic
    cut sparsifier construction of [Abraham et al. FOCS’16], based on forest packing,
    together with new structural insights about the maintenance of these forests under
    vertex splits. Given the versatility of cut sparsification in both the static
    and dynamic graph algorithms literature, we believe this construction may be of
    independent interest."

  text: 'Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are a central model
    for uncertainty in sequential decision making. The most basic objective is the
    reachability objective, where a target set must be eventually visited, and the
    more general parity objectives can model all omega-regular specifications. For
    such objectives, the computational analysis problems are the following: (a) qualitative
    analysis that asks whether the objective can be satisfied with probability 1 (almost-sure
    winning) or probability arbitrarily close to 1 (limit-sure winning); and (b) quantitative
    analysis that asks for the approximation of the optimal probability of satisfying
    the objective. For general POMDPs, almost-sure analysis for reachability objectives
    is EXPTIME-complete, but limit-sure and quantitative analyses for reachability
    objectives are undecidable; almost-sure, limit-sure, and quantitative analyses
    for parity objectives are all undecidable. A special class of POMDPs, called revealing
    POMDPs, has been studied recently in several works, and for this subclass the
    almost-sure analysis for parity objectives was shown to be EXPTIME-complete. In
    this work, we show that for revealing POMDPs the limit-sure analysis for parity
    objectives is EXPTIME-complete, and even the quantitative analysis for parity
    objectives can be achieved in EXPTIME.'

  text: "The initial–final mass relation (IFMR) links a star’s birth mass to the mass
    of its white dwarf (WD) remnant, providing key constraints on stellar evolution.
    Open clusters offer the most straightforward way to empirically determine the
    IFMR, as their well-defined ages allow for direct progenitor lifetime estimates.
    We construct the most comprehensive open cluster WD IFMR to date by combining
    new spectroscopy of 22 WDs with an extensive literature review of WDs with strong
    cluster associations. To minimize systematics, we restrict our analysis to spectroscopically
    confirmed hydrogen-atmosphere (DA) WDs consistent with single-stellar origins.
    We separately analyze a subset with reliable Gaia-based astrometric membership
    assessments, as well as a full sample that adds WDs with strong cluster associations
    whose membership cannot be reliably assessed with Gaia. The Gaia-based sample
    includes 69 spectroscopically confirmed DA WDs, more than doubling the sample
    size of previous Gaia-based open cluster IFMRs. The full sample, which includes
    53 additional literature WDs,\r\nincreases the total number of cluster WDs by
    over 50% relative to earlier works. We provide functional forms for both the Gaia-based
    and full-sample IFMRs. The Gaia-based result useful for Mi � 2.67 M⊙ is Mf = [0.179
    0.100H (Mi 3.84 M )] × (Mi 3.84 M ) + 0.628 M , where H(x) is the Heaviside step
    function. Comparing our IFMR to recent literature, we identify significant deviations
    from best-fit IFMRs derived from both Gaia-based volume-limited samples of field
    WDs and double WD binaries, with the largest discrepancy occurring for initial
    masses of about 5 M⊙."

  text: In calculus, l'Hopital's rule provides a simple way to evaluate the limits
    of quotient functions when both the numerator and denominator vanish. But what
    happens when we move beyond real functions on a real interval? In this article,
    we study when the quotient of two complex-valued functions in higher dimension
    can be defined continuously at the points where both functions vanish. Surprisingly,
    the answer is far subtler than in the real-valued setting. We provide a complete
    characterization for the continuity of the quotient function. We also point out
    why extending this result to smoother quotients remains an intriguing challenge.

  text: We present symplectic structures on the shape space of unparameterized space
    curves that generalize the classical Marsden–Weinstein structure. Our method integrates
    the Liouville 1-form of the Marsden–Weinstein structure with Riemannian structures
    that have been introduced in mathematical shape analysis. We also derive Hamiltonian
    vector fields for several classical Hamiltonian functions with respect to these
    new symplectic structures.

  text: The paraventricular hypothalamus (PVH) controls behavioral and physiologic
    processes, including appetite, social behavior, autonomic outflow, and pituitary
    hormone secretion. However, molecular markers for centrally projecting PVH neuron
    populations remain largely undefined, and a complete census of PVH cell types
    has not been established. Therefore, we performed extensive single-cell/nucleus
    RNA sequencing to catalog PVH neuron subtypes and multiplexed error-robust fluorescence
    in situ hybridization (MERFISH) to map them spatially. Our spatial transcriptomic
    atlas resolves 26 Sim1+ and 29 GABAergic neuron populations from the PVH and surrounding
    areas. Additionally, projection-based profiling identified neurons that project
    to the parabrachial region (PB) and spinal cord, helping to determine PVH populations
    that regulate satiety and sympathetic nervous system activity, respectively. Notably,
    activation of PB-projecting PVH neurons expressing Brs3 reduces food intake, and
    silencing them causes obesity. Together, this atlas contributes high-resolution
    PVH spatial and circuit-based gene expression profiles, representing a valuable
    resource for the field of homeostasis.

  text: 'The small DAHe and DAe spectral classes comprise isolated, hydrogen-dominated
    atmosphere white dwarfs that exhibit variable photometric flux and Balmer line
    emission. These mysterious systems offer unique insight into the complex interplay
    between magnetic fields, stellar rotation and atmospheric activity in single white
    dwarfs. DAHe stars have detectable magnetic fields through Zeeman-split spectral
    lines, whereas DAe stars lack such splitting. We report the first discovery and
    characterization of magnetism in the DAe white dwarf WD J165335.21−100116.33 with
    new time-resolved spectropolarimetry from FORS2. We detect a weak but variable
    longitudinal magnetic field with values Bz > −9.2 ± 2.4 kG and Bz < −2.2 ± 1.0
    kG. Independent ZTF and ATLAS photometry reveal a consistent period of P = 80.3070
    ± 0.0007 h. Time-resolved optical spectroscopy obtained with six ground-based
    instruments demonstrates strong modulation in the strength of the Hα and Hβ Balmer
    line emission with P = 80.2922 ± 0.0108 h. The photometric flux and Balmer emission
    strength vary in antiphase, with the strongest magnetic detections coinciding
    with phases of low photometric flux and strong line emission. These characteristicssupport
    the theory that a magnetically active, temperature-inverted spot/region is producing
    an optically thin chromospheric emission region. Comparison with other DAe and
    DAHe white dwarfsreveals all systems have a strikingly similar antiphase phenomenology,
    reinforcing the theory that they are subject to a unified physical mechanism.
    With the detection of a weak magnetic field, we reclassify WD J165335.21−100116.33

  text: Entanglement does not always require one particle per party. It was predicted
    some 30 years ago that a single photon traversing a beam splitter could violate
    a Bell inequality. Although initially debated, single-photon nonlocality was eventually
    demonstrated via homodyne measurements. Here, we present an alternate realization
    that avoids the complexity of homodyne measurements and potential loopholes in
    their implementation. We violate a Bell inequality by performing joint measurements
    on two copies of the same single-photon entangled state, where one photon acts
    as a phase reference for the other, making it self-referential. We observe CHSH
    parameters of 2.71 = 0.09 and 2.23 = 0.07, depending on the joint measurements
    implemented. This offers a perspective on single-photon nonlocality and a more
    accessible experimental route, potentially applicable to general mode-entangled
    states in diverse platforms.

  text: Cells are defined by lipid membranes that differ in their structure across
    the tree of life. While the membranes of most bacteria and eukaryotes consist
    of single-headed bilayer lipids, the membranes of archaea are composed of mixtures
    of single-headed bilayer lipids and double-headed bolalipids. Archaeal bolalipids
    can adopt straight or u-shaped conformations, enabling them—together with bilayer
    lipids—to control whether membranes form bilayer or monolayer structures. Yet,
    the physical principles governing archaeal membranes remain largely unexplored,
    especially how membrane structure couples to externally imposed curvature during
    membrane remodeling. Here, we perform coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations
    of toroidal vesicles to systematically probe the effects of all relevant combinations
    of mean and Gaussian curvatures on shape stability and lipid organization. We
    find that soft bilayer membranes can sustain all curvatures induced, whereas rigid
    bolalipid monolayer membranes either transition to different vesicle shapes or
    rupture. Bilayer-mimicking u-shaped bolalipids and bilayer lipids are spatially
    accumulated in regions of high mean membrane curvature independent of Gaussian
    curvature. Our work identifies curvature–composition coupling as a physical signature
    of archaeal membrane remodeling.

  text: The collagen triple helix assembles hierarchically into bundled oligomers,
    solvated networks, and fibers. Synthetic peptide assemblies, driven by supramolecular
    interactions, can form single triple helices through intrahelical amino acid pairs;
    however, the principles guiding interhelical associations into higher-order structures
    remain unclear. Here, we incorporate cation−π and electrostatic charge pairs to
    probe interhelical interactions and elucidate the mechanisms driving triple helix
    assembly into fibrils, nanotubes, and nanosheets. Introducing cation−π pairs into
    a fibrillating collagen mimetic resulted in D-periodic fibrils with pH-sensitive
    gelation. By alternating the presentation of electrostatic and cation−π pairs,
    the assembly of another D-periodic fibril featuring inner and outer triple-helical
    layers was resolved by cryo electron microscopy to a resolution of 8 Å. At physiological
    pH, antiparallel association of these triple helices leads to the formation of
    nanotubes. The packing behavior of triple helices correlates with the interhelical
    interactions, where parallel associations favor fibril formation and antiparallel
    interactions drive nanotube and nanosheet assembly. These self-assembling triple-helical
    peptides demonstrate how packing of higher-order structures can be tailored with
    supramolecular interactions and establish the relationship of different hierarchical
    collagen-mimetic assemblies as pH-dependent.

  text: Liquid-like superionic conductors, with highly mobile ions in a rigid framework,
    offer intrinsically low lattice thermal conductivity without compromising electronic
    transport. Argyrodite-type Ag8SnSe6 exhibits a melt-like Ag sublattice that drives
    lattice thermal conductivity (κL) below 0.2 watts per meter per kelvin, yet its
    low carrier concentration limits the power factor. Here, interstitial Ag atoms
    raise the Fermi level into the conduction band, substantially increasing the electron
    concentration. Simultaneously, the formation of a secondary Ag2Se phase generates
    lattice distortions that enhance phonon scattering. A pronounced mismatch between
    electronic (~200 nanometers) and phononic (~0.22 nanometers) mean free paths decouples
    charge and heat transport, enabling concurrent suppression of κL and retention
    of high electrical conductivity. This coupled electronic-phononic modulation yields
    a record ZT of 0.72 at ambient temperature and a peak ZT of 1.1 at 735 kelvins,
    with an average ZTavg of 0.72 over 320 to 735 kelvins. A unicouple device achieves
    6.3% efficiency under a 357-kelvin gradient, highlighting a practical strategy
    for high-performance midtemperature thermoelectrics.

  text: Epithelial tissues function as multicellular communities that preserve tissue
    integrity while adapting to diverse environmental stresses by altering cell behaviors.
    A striking manifestation of such adaptability is cell plasticity, the ability
    of differentiated cells to revert to stem-like states or adopt alternative fates.
    Once considered rare and confined to highly regenerative species, cell plasticity
    is now recognized across the metazoan tree. In early-branching animals such as
    sponges and cnidarians, transdifferentiation and dedifferentiation are integral
    to life-cycle transitions and regeneration, whereas in more complex organisms,
    these processes typically emerge under stress, including stem cell loss or environmental
    perturbations. Here, we examine epithelial cell plasticity through evolutionary,
    cellular, and molecular perspectives. Focusing on the intestinal epithelium, we
    explore findings from mammalian and Drosophila models showing that progenitors
    and even terminally differentiated cells can dedifferentiate in response to external
    stimuli that disrupt homeostasis, such as pathogen infection and nutrient fluctuations.
    We further discuss conserved mechanisms involving intercellular signaling (e.g.,
    Notch, EGFR, and JAK-STAT) and chromatin states primed for reprogramming, modulated
    by metabolic cues. Together, these insights position cell plasticity as an ancient
    environmental adaptation strategy, shaped by conserved molecular toolkits and
    refined by species- and cell lineage-specific innovations.

  text: The origin(s) of life (OoL), which has puzzled scientists for centuries, remains
    a major scientific challenge in the 21st century. Understanding the processes
    relevant to the OoL demands theoretical frameworks that can connect processes
    across scales, from microscopic dynamics to emergent levels of organization. While
    experimental studies generate a wealth of data, theoretical and computational
    approaches provide the structure necessary to interpret and generalize these findings.
    In Part 1, we examined the most widely used experimental techniques in the field.
    Here, we focus on the mathematical, physical, and computational techniques used
    to model phenomena relevant to life’s origin(s). We discuss methods ranging from
    quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics to chemical reaction networks, autocatalysis,
    and evolutionary modeling, as well as information-theoretic and phylogenetic approaches
    that link chemical and biological organization. We further highlight emerging
    trends such as synthetic biology, omics-based methods, and laboratory automation
    as novel points of contact for theory-experiment integration. Ultimately, we aim
    to provide an educational tool that can facilitate more post-disciplinary collaborations
    in OoL research by helping scientists understand what they can do about the problem
    of life’s origins, rather than telling them how to think about it.

  text: The origin(s) of life (OoL), which has puzzled scientists for centuries, remains
    a major scientific challenge in the 21st century. Research on OoL spans many disciplines,
    including chemistry, physics, biology, planetary sciences, computer science, and
    mathematics. The sheer number of different scientific perspectives relevant to
    the problem has resulted in the coexistence of diverse tools, techniques, data,
    and software in OoL studies. This has made communication between the disciplines
    relevant to the OoL extremely difficult because the interpretation of data, analyses,
    or standards of evidence varies dramatically. Here, we hope to bridge this wide
    field of study by providing common ground via the consolidation of techniques
    rather than positing a unifying view on how life emerges. In part 1 of this review,
    we cover common experimental techniques that have been used significantly in OoL
    studies in recent years, while in part 2, we review theoretical, computational,
    and integrative methods. Here, we discuss the use of spectroscopy, spectrometry,
    chromatography, microscopy, and sequencing methods for characterizing diverse
    materials. We further discuss the role of data repositories in facilitating the
    analysis and dissemination of experimental data. This review provides a baseline
    expectation and understanding of the analytical aspects of origins’ research.
    Ultimately, we aim to provide an educational tool that can facilitate more post-disciplinary
    collaborations in OoL research by helping scientists understand what they can
    do about the problem of life’s origins, rather than telling them how to think
    about it.
acknowledgement: This work is a collaborative effort of the titled authors as part
  of the Origin of Life Early Career Network (OoLEN). We chose to add OoLEN as the
  first author to give a better representation of this team effort, rather than listing

  text: Tropical shallow clouds are a major source of uncertainty in Earth's climate
    sensitivity, especially through their spatial arrangement, which global climate
    models do not represent. Efforts to understand their organization have partly
    relied on classifying observed scenes, identifying four patterns as archetypal
    regimes. Here we analyze geostationary satellite imagery of the western tropical
    Atlantic using the L‐function, a tool based on point pattern theory that quantifies
    cloud organization across spatial scales. Classical examples of the four patterns
    show distinct L‐function fingerprints, revealing their characteristic clustering
    and regularity scales and aiding physical interpretation. Yet, when evaluating
    many scenes at fixed spatial scales, the L‐function distribution lacks the distinct
    modes expected from discrete regimes. This is corroborated by analyses of other
    organization indices employing diverse approaches, from inter‐cloud nearest‐neighbor
    distances to fractal analysis. Implications for the parameterization of mesoscale
    cloud organization in climate models are discussed.

  text: 3I/ATLAS is the third interstellar object discovered to date, following 1I/‘Oumuamua
    and 2I/Borisov. Its unusually high excess velocity and active cometary nature
    make it a key probe of the Galactic population of icy planetesimals. Understanding
    its origin requires its past trajectory through the Galaxy to be traced and the
    possible role of stellar encounters to be assessed, both as a potential origin
    and a perturber to its orbit. We integrated the orbit of 3I/ATLAS backward in
    time for 10 Myr, together with a sample of Gaia DR3 stars with high-quality astrometry
    and radial velocities, to identify close passages within 2 pc. We identify 93
    nominal encounters, 62 of which are significant at the 2σ level. However, none
    of these encounters produced any meaningful perturbation. The strongest perturber
    Gaia DR3 6863591389529611264 at 0.30 pc and with a relative velocity of 35 km
    s−1, imparted only a velocity change of ∣Δv∣  ≃  5  ×  10−4 km s−1 to the orbit
    of 3I/ATLAS. Our results indicate that no stellar flybys within the past 10 Myr
    and 500 pc contained in Gaia DR3 can account for the present trajectory of 3I/ATLAS
    or be associated with its origin. We further show that 3I/ATLAS is kinematically
    consistent with a thin-disk population, despite its large peculiar velocity.

  text: Neural tube closure is a critical morphogenetic process in vertebrate development,
    and failure to close cranial regions such as the hindbrain neuropore (HNP) leads
    to severe congenital malformations. While mechanical forces such as actomyosin
    purse-string contraction and directional cell crawling have been implicated in
    driving HNP closure, how these forces organize local cell shape and motion to
    produce large-scale tissue remodeling remains poorly understood. Using live and
    fixed imaging of mouse embryos combined with cell-based biophysical modeling,
    we show that these force-generating mechanisms are insufficient to explain the
    reproducible patterns of cell elongation and nematic alignment observed at the
    HNP border. Instead, we show that local anisotropic stress and cytoskeletal organization
    are required to generate these patterns and promote midline cell motion. Our model
    captures key features of cell shape dynamics and emergent nematic order, which
    we confirm experimentally, including the alignment of actin fibers with cell shape
    and enhanced midline cell speed. Comparative analysis with chick embryos, which
    lack supracellular purse strings, supports a conserved link between tension generation
    and cellular patterning. These findings establish a physical framework connecting
    force generation, cell shape anisotropy, and tissue morphodynamics during epithelial
    gap closure.
