  text: 'Disentangling polysemantic neurons is at the core of many current approaches
    to interpretability of large language models. Here we attempt to study how disentanglement
    can be used to understand performance, particularly under weight sparsity, a leading
    post-training optimization technique. We suggest a novel measure for estimating
    neuronal entanglement: the Wasserstein distance of a neuron''s output distribution
    to a Gaussian. Moreover, we show the existence of a small number of highly entangled
    "Wasserstein Neurons" in each linear layer of an LLM, characterized by their highly
    non-Gaussian output distributions, their role in mapping similar inputs to dissimilar
    outputs, and their significant impact on model accuracy. To study these phenomena,
    we propose a new experimental framework for disentangling polysemantic neurons.
    Our framework separates each layer''s inputs to create a mixture of experts where
    each neuron''s output is computed by a mixture of neurons of lower Wasserstein
    distance, each better at maintaining accuracy when sparsified without retraining.
    We provide strong evidence that this is because the mixture of sparse experts
    is effectively disentangling the input-output relationship of individual neurons,
    in particular the difficult Wasserstein neurons.'

  text: Pruning eliminates unnecessary parameters in neural networks; it offers a
    promising solution to the growing computational demands of large language models
    (LLMs). While many focus on post-training pruning, sparse pre-training--which
    combines pruning and pre-training into a single phase--provides a simpler alternative.
    In this work, we present the first systematic exploration of optimal sparse pre-training
    configurations for LLMs through an examination of 80 unique pruning schedules
    across different sparsity levels and training durations. We find that initiating
    pruning at 25% of total training compute and concluding at 75% achieves near-optimal
    final evaluation loss. These findings provide valuable insights for efficient
    and effective sparse pre-training of LLMs. Furthermore, we propose a new scaling
    law that modifies the Chinchilla scaling law to use the average parameter count
    over pre-training. Through empirical and theoretical validation, we demonstrate
    that this modified scaling law accurately models evaluation loss for both sparsely
    and densely pre-trained LLMs, unifying scaling laws across pre-training paradigms.
    Our findings indicate that while sparse pre-training achieves the same final model
    quality as dense pre-training for equivalent compute budgets, it provides substantial
    benefits through reduced model size, enabling significant potential computational
    savings during inference.

  text: 'Contractive coupling rates have been recently introduced by Conforti as a
    tool to establish convex Sobolev inequalities (including modified log-Sobolev
    and Poincaré inequality) for some classes of Markov chains. In this work, for
    most of the examples discussed by Conforti, we use contractive coupling rates
    to prove stronger inequalities, in the form of curvature lower bounds (in entropic
    and discrete Bakry–Émery sense) and geodesic convexity of some entropic functionals.
    In addition, we recall and give straightforward generalizations of some notions
    of coarse Ricci curvature, and we discuss some of their properties and relations
    with the concepts of couplings and coupling rates: as an application, we show
    exponential contraction of the p-Wasserstein distance for the heat flow in the
    aforementioned examples.'

  text: We establish an isomorphism of complex K-theory of the moduli space  M  of
    “SL n​ ”-Higgs bundles of degree d and rank n (in the sense of Hausel–Thaddeus)
    and twisted complex K-theory of the orbifold  M  of PGL n​ -Higgs bundles of degree
    e, where (n,d)=(n,e)=1. Along the way, we prove the vanishing of torsion for H
    ∗ ( M ) and certain twisted complex K-theory groups of  M . We also extend Arinkin’s
    autoduality of compactified Jacobian to a derived equivalence between SL n​ -
    and PGL n​ -Hitchin systems over the elliptic locus. In the appendix, we develop
    a formalism of G-sheaves of spectra, generalising equivariant homotopy theory
    to a relative setting.

  text: Genetic trade-offs—which occur when variants that are beneficial in some contexts
    of natural selection are harmful in others—can influence a wide range of evolutionary
    phenomena, from the maintenance of genetic variation to the evolution of aging
    and sex differences. An extensive body of evolutionary theory has focused on the
    consequences of such trade-offs, and recent analyses of Fisher’s geometric model
    have further quantified the expected proportion of new mutations that exhibit
    trade-offs. However, the theory remains silent regarding the prevalence of trade-offs
    among the variants that contribute to adaptation. Here, we extend Fisher’s geometric
    model to predict the prevalence of trade-offs among the adaptive mutations that
    become established or fixed in a population. We consider trade-offs between sexes,
    habitats, fitness components, and temporally fluctuating environments. In all
    4 scenarios, trade-off alleles are consistently under-represented among established
    relative to new beneficial mutations—an effect that arises from the greater susceptibility
    of trade-off alleles to genetic drift. Adaptation during a population size decline
    exacerbates this deficit of trade-offs among established mutations, whereas population
    expansions dampen it. Consequently, threatened populations should primarily adapt
    using unconditionally beneficial alleles, while invasive populations are more
    prone to adaptation using variants that exhibit trade-offs.

  text: We consider the time evolution of the renormalized Nelson model, which describes
    N bosons linearly coupled to a quantized scalar field, in the mean-field limit
    of many particles N≫1 with coupling constant proportional to N^−1/2. First, we
    show that initial states exhibiting Bose–Einstein condensation for the particles
    and approximating a coherent state for the quantum field retain their structure
    under the many-body time evolution. Concretely, the dynamics of the reduced densities
    are approximated by solutions of two coupled PDEs, the Schrödinger–Klein–Gordon
    equations. Second, we construct a renormalized Bogoliubov evolution that describes
    the quantum fluctuations around the Schrödinger–Klein–Gordon equations. This evolution
    is used to extend the approximation of the evolved many-body state to the full
    norm topology. In summary, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the Nelson model
    that reveals the role of renormalization in the mean-field Bogoliubov theory.

  text: A Laplacian matrix is a real symmetric matrix whose row and column sums are
    zero. We investigate the limiting distribution of the largest eigenvalues of a
    Laplacian random matrix with Gaussian entries. Unlike many classical matrix ensembles,
    this random matrix model contains dependent entries. Our main results show that
    the extreme eigenvalues of this model exhibit Poisson statistics. In particular,
    after properly shifting and scaling, we show that the largest eigenvalue converges
    to the Gumbel distribution as the dimension of the matrix tends to infinity. While
    the largest diagonal entry is also shown to have Gumbel fluctuations, there is
    a rather surprising difference between its deterministic centering term and the
    centering term required for the largest eigenvalues.

  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 prove upper bounds on the L∞-Wasserstein distance from optimal transport
    between strongly log-concave probability densities and log-Lipschitz perturbations.
    In the simplest setting, such a bound amounts to a transport-information inequality
    involving the L∞-Wasserstein metric and the relative L∞-Fisher information. We
    show that this inequality can be sharpened significantly in situations where the
    involved densities are anisotropic. Our proof is based on probabilistic techniques
    using Langevin dynamics. As an application of these results, we obtain sharp exponential
    rates of convergence in Fisher’s infinitesimal model from quantitative genetics,
    generalising recent results by Calvez, Poyato, and Santambrogio in dimension 1
    to arbitrary dimensions.

  text: "We revisit the majority problem in the population protocol communication
    model, as first studied by Angluin et al. (Distributed Computing 2008). We consider
    a more general version of this problem known as plurality consensus, which has
    already been studied intensively in the literature. In this problem, each node
    in a system of n nodes, has initially one of k different opinions, and they need
    to agree on the (relative) majority opinion. In particular, we consider the important
    and intensively studied model of Undecided State Dynamics.\r\nOur main contribution
    is an almost tight lower bound on the stabilization time: we prove that there
    exists an initial configuration, even with bias \\Delta = \\omega(\\sqrt{n\\log
    n}), where stabilization requires \\Omega(kn\\log \\frac {\\sqrt n} {k \\log n})
    interactions, or equivalently, \\Omega(k\\log \\frac {\\sqrt n} {k \\log n}) parallel
    time for any k = o\\left(\\frac {\\sqrt n}{\\log n}\\right). This bound is tight
    for any k \\le n^{\\frac 1 2 - \\epsilon}, where \\epsilon >0 can be any small
    constant, as Amir et al.~(PODC'23) gave a O(k\\log n) parallel time upper bound
    for k = O\\left(\\frac {\\sqrt n} {\\log ^2 n}\\right)."

  text: "This paper revisits a fundamental distributed computing problem in the population
    protocol model. Provided n agents each starting with an input color in [k], the
    relative majority problem asks to find the predominant color. In the population
    protocol model, at each time step, a scheduler selects two agents that first learn
    each other's states and then update their states based on what they learned.\r\nWe
    present the Circles protocol that solves the relative majority problem with k3
    states. It is always-correct under weakly fair scheduling. Not only does it improve
    upon the best known upper bound of O(k7), but it also shows a strikingly simpler
    design inspired by energy minimization in chemical settings."

  text: "Liquid democracy is a transitive vote delegation mechanism over voting graphs.
    It enables each voter to delegate their vote(s) to another better-informed voter,
    with the goal of collectively making a better decision. The question of whether
    liquid democracy outperforms direct voting has been previously studied in the
    context of local delegation mechanisms (where voters can only delegate to someone
    in their neighbourhood) and binary decision problems. It has previously been shown
    that it is impossible for local delegation mechanisms to outperform direct voting
    in general graphs. This raises the question: for which classes of graphs do local
    delegation mechanisms yield good results?\r\nIn this work, we analyse (1) properties
    of specific graphs and (2) properties of local delegation mechanisms on these
    graphs, determining where local delegation actually outperforms direct voting.
    We show that a critical graph property enabling liquid democracy is that the voting
    outcome of local delegation mechanisms preserves a sufficient amount of variance,
    thereby avoiding situations where delegation falls behind direct voting1. These
    insights allow us to prove our main results, namely that there exist local delegation
    mechanisms that perform no worse and in fact quantitatively better than direct
    voting in natural graph topologies like complete, random d-regular, and bounded
    degree graphs, lending a more nuanced perspective to previous impossibility results."

  text: Supercrystals represent three-dimensional orderings of colloidal nanocrystals
    (NCs), showcasing collective properties in photonics, phononics, and electronics
    applications.1,2 Recent studies have shown that such assemblies are directly produced
    during nanocrystal reactions.3–6 However, a fundamental understanding of in situ
    formed supercrystals that withstand typical NC purification processes remains
    underexplored, which is important for further use. Herein, we report the reaction
    precursor-mediated formation of stable PbTe supercrystals. Rationalizing the formation
    of these assemblies through small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements,
    we unveil their formation mechanism. Our findings reveal that the supercrystal
    formation occurs in the presence of an excess of lead oleates in the crude solution.
    It should be noted that the formed supercrystals can be stabilized under specific
    conditions determined by the lead oleate cluster concentration, content of trioctylphosphine
    telluride (TOP-Te), NC size and the need of an annealing step at mild conditions.
    Furthermore, this approach allows for the continuous growth of a secondary phase
    within the supercrystal; for example in the case of PbTe supercrystals, a PbS
    shell can be grown on each PbTe NC constituent, resulting in core-shell PbTe-PbS
    supercrystals. Our work elucidates that reaction precursors play an important
    role in in situ SC formation and stabilization, implying the possibility of applying
    this knowledge to other NC reactions.

  text: Theoretical studies have shown that stochasticity can affect the dynamics
    of ecosystems in counterintuitive ways. However, without knowing the equations
    governing the dynamics of populations or ecosystems, it is difficult to ascertain
    the role of stochasticity in real datasets. Therefore, the inverse problem of
    inferring the governing stochastic equations from datasets is important. Here,
    we present an equation discovery methodology that takes time series data of state
    variables as input and outputs a stochastic differential equation. We achieve
    this by combining traditional approaches from stochastic calculus with the equation
    discovery techniques. We demonstrate the generality of the method via several
    applications. First, we deliberately choose various stochastic models with fundamentally
    different governing equations, yet they produce nearly identical steady-state
    distributions. We show that we can recover the correct underlying equations, and
    thus infer the structure of their stability, accurately from the analysis of time
    series data alone. We demonstrate our method on two real-world datasets—fish schooling
    and single-cell migration—that have vastly different spatiotemporal scales and
    dynamics. We illustrate various limitations and potential pitfalls of the method
    and how to overcome them via diagnostic measures. Finally, we provide our open-source
    code via a package named PyDaDDy (Python Library for Data-Driven Dynamics).

  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: Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a key extracellular matrix component of vertebrates,
    where it mediates cell adhesion, immune regulation, and tissue remodeling through
    its interaction with specific receptors. Although HA has been detected in a few
    invertebrate species, the lack of fundamental components of the molecular HA pathway
    poses relevant objections about its functional role in these species. Mining genomic
    and transcriptomic data, we considered the conservation of the gene locus encoding
    for the extracellular link protein (XLINK) in marine mussels as well as its expression
    patterns. Structural and phylogenetic analyses were undertaken to evaluate possible
    similarities with vertebrate orthologs and to infer the origin of this gene in
    invertebrates. Biochemical analysis was used to quantify HA in tissues of Mytilus
    galloprovincialis. As a result, we confirm that the mussel can produce HA (up
    to 1.02 ng/mg in mantle) and that its genome encodes two XLINK gene loci. These
    loci are conserved in Mytilidae species and show a complex evolutionary path.
    Mussel XLINK genes appeared to be expressed during developmental stages in three
    mussel species, ranking in the top 100 expressed genes in M. trossulus at 17 h
    post-fertilization. In conclusion, the presence of HA and an active gene with
    the potential to bind HA suggests that mussels have the potential to synthesize
    and use HA and are among the few invertebrates encoding this gene.

  text: "Research question: Is LINC01638 involved in regulation of epithelial-to-mesenchymal
    transition (EMT) in endometriosis?\r\nDesign: A prospective patient cohort study
    was combined with functional experiments in the 12Z endometriosis epithelial cell
    line to investigate the role of LINC01638 in endometriosis. Eutopic endometrial
    samples were collected by curettage, and ectopic endometrial lesion samples were
    collected by laparoscopic surgery from 24 control patients and 41 patients with
    endometriosis. The phenotype of 12Z cells was assessed following LINC01638 knockdown
    using siRNA, performing proliferation, adhesion, migration and invasion assays,
    as well as assessing apoptosis and cell cycle changes with flow cytometry assays.
    In order to assess the relationship between LINC01638 and histone deacetylase
    class 1 enzyme (HDAC1), LINC01638 knockdown was combined with HDAC inhibition
    with the specific HDAC inhibitor romidepsin.\r\nResults: LINC01638 was up-regulated
    in the epithelial layer of endometriotic lesions, and LINC01638 knockdown in 12Z
    cells led to reduced proliferation, adhesion, migration and invasion. The reduction
    in proliferation was associated with increased p21 and p27 expression, and G1
    phase arrest. Further analysis of LINC01638 control and knockdown cells revealed
    that a number of transcription factors associated with EMT are down-regulated
    in knockdown cells, along with the cytoskeleton regulatory gene RHOB, while HDAC1
    was up-regulated. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis and HDAC1 inhibitory
    treatment combined with LINC01638 knockdown indicated that LINC01638 regulates
    RHOB expression via HDAC1-mediated promoter deacetylation. RHOB is up-regulated
    in the epithelial layer of endometriotic lesions compared with eutopic endometrium,
    supporting a role in the disease.\r\nConclusions: LINC01638 is an epigenetic regulator
    of the pathogenesis of endometriosis, promoting proliferation and EMT of endometriotic
    lesions."
