  text: We present and test a protocol to learn the matrix-product operator (MPO)
    representation of an experimentally prepared quantum state. The protocol takes
    as input classical shadows corresponding to local randomized measurements, and
    outputs the tensors of an MPO maximizing a suitably defined fidelity with the
    experimental state. The tensor optimization is carried out sequentially, similarly
    to the well-known density matrix renormalization group algorithm. Our approach
    is provably efficient under certain technical conditions expected to be met in
    short-range correlated states and in typical noisy experimental settings. Under
    the same conditions, we also provide an efficient scheme to estimate fidelities
    between the learned and the experimental states. We experimentally demonstrate
    our protocol by learning entangled quantum states of up to N = 96 qubits in a
    superconducting quantum processor. Our method upgrades classical shadows to large-scale
    quantum computation and simulation experiments.

  text: Controlling the size and shape of assembled structures is a fundamental challenge
    in self-assembly and is highly relevant in material design and biology. Here,
    we show that specific but promiscuous short-range binding interactions make it
    possible to economically assemble linear filaments of user-defined length. Our
    approach leads to independent control over the mean and width of the filament
    size distribution and allows us to smoothly explore design trade-offs between
    assembly quality (spread in size) and cost (number of particle species). We employ
    a simple hierarchical assembly protocol to minimize assembly times and show that
    multiple stages of hierarchy make it possible to extend our approach to the assembly
    of higher-dimensional structures. Our work provides a conceptually simple solution
    to size control that is applicable to a broad range of systems, from DNA nanoparticles
    to supramolecular polymers and beyond.

  text: Auxin canalization is a self-organizing process that governs the flexible
    formation of vasculature by reinforcing the formation of auxin transport channels.
    A key prerequisite is the feedback between auxin signaling and directional auxin
    transport, mediated by PIN transporters. Despite the developmental importance
    of canalization, the molecular components linking auxin perception to the regulation
    of PIN auxin transporters remain poorly understood. Here, we identify TOW, a novel
    and essential component of auxin canalization that links intracellular auxin signaling
    with cell surface auxin perception. TOW is regulated downstream of TIR1/AFB-Aux/IAA-WRKY23
    transcriptional auxin signaling. tow mutants exhibit defects in regeneration and
    de novo vasculature formation, along with impaired formation of polarized, PIN-expressing
    auxin channels. At the subcellular level, these mutants display disrupted auxin-induced
    PIN polarization and altered PIN endocytic trafficking dynamics. TOW localizes
    predominantly to the plasma membrane, where it interacts with receptor-like kinases
    involved in auxin canalization, including the TMK1 auxin co-receptor and the CAMEL-CANAR
    complex. TOW promotes PIN interaction with these kinases and stabilizes PINs at
    the cell surface. Together, our findings identify TOW as a molecular link between
    intracellular and cell surface auxin signaling mechanisms that converge on PIN
    trafficking and polarity, providing new insights into how auxin signaling regulates
    directional auxin transport for the self-organizing formation of vasculature during
    flexible plant development.

  text: An individual's phenotype reflects a complex interplay of the direct effects
    of their DNA, epigenetic modifications of their DNA induced by their parents,
    and indirect effects of their parents' DNA. Here, we derive how the genetic variance
    within a population is changed under the influence of indirect maternal, paternal
    and parent-of-origin effects under random mating. We also consider indirect effects
    of a sibling, in particular how the genetic variance is altered when looking at
    the phenotypic difference between two siblings. The calculations are then extended
    to include assortative mating (AM), which alters the variance by inducing increased
    homozygosity and correlations within and across loci. AM likely leads to covariance
    of parental genetic effects, a measure of the similarity of parents in the indirect
    effects they have on their children. We propose that this assortment for parental
    characteristics, where biological parents create similar environments for their
    children, can create shared parental effects across traits and the appearance
    of cross-trait AM. Our theory shows how the resemblance among relatives increases
    under both AM, indirect and parent-of-origin effects. When our model is used to
    predict correlations among relatives in human height, we find that explaining
    the patterns observed in real data requires both indirect genetic effects and
    assortative mating. The degree to which direct, indirect and epigenetic effects
    shape the phenotypic variance of complex traits remains an open question that
    requires large-scale family data to be resolved.

  text: Sex-chromosome systems are highly variable across animals, but how they transition
    from one to another is not well understood. Diptera have undergone multiple sex-chromosome
    turnovers and expansions while maintaining their general chromosomal content,
    which makes them an ideal clade to study such transitions. We analyzed more than
    100 dipteran whole-genome assemblies and identified 4 new lineages that underwent
    sex-chromosome turnover (in addition to the 5 previously reported). We find that
    the majority of turnovers happened in the group Schizophora, which tend to have
    fewer genes on Muller element F (the chromosome homologous to the ancestral insect
    X chromosome) than lower dipterans, a factor previously hypothesized to facilitate
    turnover. Most derived X chromosomes have higher GC content than autosomes, consistent
    with a high prevalence of male achiasmy in Diptera. In addition, an excess of
    gene movement out of the X is detected for most of these new X chromosomes, and
    many of these moved genes have high testis expression in Drosophila, suggesting
    that out-of-X gene movement contributes to the long-term demasculinization of
    X chromosomes.

  text: We study Kirillov algebras attached to minuscule highest weight representations
    of semisimple Lie algebras. They can be viewed as equivariant cohomology algebras
    of partial flag varieties. Real structures on the varieties then induce involutions
    of these algebras. We describe how these involutions act on the spectra of minuscule
    Kirillov algebras, and model the fixed points via the equivariant cohomology of
    real partial flag varieties. We then use this model to characterise freeness of
    the fixed point coordinate ring over the appropriate base. As an application,
    we recover a q = -1 phenomenon of Stembridge in the minuscule case by geometric
    means.

  text: "This thesis documents a voyage towards truth and beauty via formal verification
    of theorems. To this end, we develop libraries in Lean 4 that present definitions
    and results from diverse areas of MathematiCS (i.e., Mathematics and Computer
    Science). The aim is to create code that is understandable, believable, useful,
    and elegant. The code should stand for itself as much as possible without a need
    for documentation; however, this text redundantly documents our code artifacts
    and provides additional context that isn’t present in the code. This thesis is
    written for readers who know Lean 4 but are not familiar with any of the topics
    presented. We manifest truth and beauty in three formalized areas of MathematiCS.\r\n\r\nWe
    formalize general grammars in Lean 4 and use grammars to show closure of the class
    of type-0 languages under four operations; union, reversal, concatenation, and
    the Kleene star.\r\n\r\nOur second stop is the theory of optimization. Farkas
    established that a system of linear inequalities has a solution if and only if
    we cannot obtain a contradiction by taking a linear combination of the inequalities.
    We state and formally prove several Farkas-like theorems over linearly ordered
    fields in Lean 4. Furthermore, we extend duality theory to the case when some
    coefficients are allowed to take “infinite values”. Additionally, we develop the
    basics of the theory of optimization in terms of the framework called General-Valued
    Constraint Satisfaction Problems, and we prove that, if a Rational-Valued Constraint
    Satisfaction Problem template has symmetric fractional polymorphisms of all arities,
    then its basic LP relaxation is tight.\r\n\r\nOur third stop is matroid theory.
    Seymour’s decomposition theorem is a hallmark result in matroid theory, presenting
    a structural characterization of the class of regular matroids. We aim to formally
    verify Seymour’s theorem in Lean 4. First, we build a library for working with
    totally unimodular matrices. We define binary matroids and their standard representations,
    and we prove that they form a matroid in the sense how Mathlib defines matroids.
    We define regular matroids to be matroids for which there exists a full representation
    rational matrix that is totally unimodular, and we prove that all regular matroids
    are binary. We define 1-sum, 2-sum, and 3 sum of binary matroids as specific ways
    to compose their standard representation matrices. We prove that the 1-sum, the
    2-sum, and the 3-sum of regular matroids are a regular matroid, which concludes
    the composition direction of the Seymour’s theorem. The (more difficult) decomposition
    direction remains unproved.\r\n\r\nIn the pursuit of truth, we focus on identifying
    the trusted code in each project and presenting it faithfully. We emphasize the
    readability and believability of definitions rather than choosing definitions
    that are easier to work with. In search for beauty, we focus on the philosophical
    framework of Roger Scruton, who emphasizes that beauty is not a mere decoration
    but, most importantly, beauty is the means for shaping our place in the world
    and a source of redemption, where it can be viewed as a substitute for religion."

  text: "Kinetically constrained models were originally introduced to capture slow
    relaxation in glassy systems, where dynamics are hindered by local constraints
    instead of energy barriers. Their quantum counterparts have recently drawn attention
    for exhibiting highly degenerate eigenstates at zero energy—known as zero modes—stemming
    from chiral symmetry. Yet, the structure and implications of these zero modes
    remain poorly understood. In this work, we focus on the properties of the zero
    mode subspace in quantum kinetically constrained models with a U(1) particle-conservation
    symmetry. We use the U(1) East, which lacks inversion symmetry, and the inversion-symmetric
    U(1) East-West models to illustrate our two main results. First, we observe that
    the simultaneous presence of constraints and chiral symmetry generally leads to
    a parametric increase in the number of zero modes due to the fragmentation of
    the many-body\r\nHilbert space into disconnected sectors. Second, we generalize
    the concept of compact localized states from single-particle physics and introduce
    the notion of collective bound states, a special kind of nonergodic eigenstates
    that are robust to enlarging the system size. We formulate sufficient criteria
    for their existence, arguing that the degenerate zero mode subspace plays a central
    role, and demonstrate bound states in both example models and in a two-dimensional
    model, the U(1) North-East, and in the pairflip model, a system without particle
    conservation. Our results motivate a systematic study of bound states and their
    relation to ergodicity breaking, transport, and other properties of quantum kinetically
    constrained\r\nmodels. "

  text: Currently, pharmacogenetics relies on partially annotated star alleles, leaving
    novel variants and complex haplotypes uninterpretable. Computational scoring frameworks
    could overcome these limitations. Here, we comprehensively evaluated the ability
    of existing (CADD, FATHMM-XF, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, SIFT, PhyloP100, APF,
    APF2) and novel (PharmGScore and PharmMLScore) variant effect predictors to assess
    pharmacogenetic alleles in multiple scenarios. Altogether we analyzed 541 PharmVar
    alleles, high‑throughput CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 mutational maps, and 200 642 UK Biobank
    exomes linked with health records containing antidepressant treatment outcomes.
    Many evaluated tools, especially ensemble frameworks, matched or exceeded star
    allele classifications (ROC‑AUC up to 0.85 for allele definitions, 0.95 in vitro;
    TPR up to 0.99 for exomes) and accurately predicted severe antidepressant adverse
    events for carriers of deleterious variants in CYP2C19 (OR 1.20–1.35). Our findings
    show that computational predictors deliver star allele accuracy while overcoming
    their limitations. With additional validation, computational tools could enhance
    clinical decision frameworks by enabling continuous scoring, incorporating previously
    unknown variants, and providing genome-wide applicability.

  text: Chromatin remodeling complexes mobilize nucleosomes and promote transcription
    factor (TF) binding. Using ensemble and single-molecule assays combined with cryo-electron
    microscopy (cryo-EM), we studied the interaction between pioneer TFs OCT4–SOX2
    and the human BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF) complex on nucleosomes. BAF engages
    TF-bound substrates in two orientations, placing OCT4–SOX2 at either the remodeler
    ENTRY or EXIT site. At the ENTRY site, OCT4–SOX2 initially coexists with BAF without
    structural interference. However, continued DNA translocation is expected to cause
    collisions with bound TFs, which can trigger remodeling direction reversals or
    may induce TF dissociation. To accommodate TFs at the EXIT site, BAF undergoes
    structural rearrangements, and ensemble assays reveal a nucleosome subpopulation
    translocating away from TF-binding sites. Moreover, single-molecule experiments
    show that nucleosome-bound BAF frequently changes remodeling direction, and we
    identify an ADP-bound remodeler conformation as a potential intermediate. Together,
    these findings reveal key aspects of the conformational dynamics and remodeling
    outcomes underlying BAF processing of TF-bound nucleosomes.

  text: 'Embryogenesis in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana provides a framework
    for understanding how cell polarity and patterning coordinate with hormonal signalling
    to establish the plant body plan. Following fertilisation, the zygote divides
    asymmetrically to generate apical and basal lineages, establishing the apical–basal
    axis that defines future shoot and root poles. Genetic and molecular analyses
    of classical mutants including gnom, monopteros (mp), bodenlos (bdl) and topless
    revealed that localised auxin biosynthesis, directional transport and downstream
    transcriptional responses are central to apical–basal axis establishment and organ
    initiation. The main components of this regulation are polarly localised PIN auxin
    transporters and downstream modules involving MONOPTEROS and WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX
    transcription factors. Advances in microscopy have transformed the study of Arabidopsis
    embryogenesis: fluorescence-compatible clearing reagents and three-dimensional
    reconstructions now permit quantitative analyses of cell geometry, division orientation,
    and cytoskeletal dynamics. Live ovule imaging setups with confocal laser scanning
    and multiphoton microscopes enable real-time observation of embryo development,
    while laser-assisted cell ablation can be used to probe cell-to-cell communication
    and fate plasticity. Together, these methodological breakthroughs position Arabidopsis
    embryos as a prime model for dissecting the chemical and biophysical cues that
    shape plant development.'

  text: The mammalian brain stores glucose, the main circulating energy substrate,
    as glycogen. In rodents, the cerebellum contains relatively high glycogen levels,
    yet its cellular and subcellular distribution remains poorly defined. Using monoclonal
    antibodies against glycogen, we examined its distribution in the mouse cerebellar
    cortex. Glycogen was predominantly localized to Bergmann glia (BG) processes in
    the molecular layer and was also detected in Purkinje cells (PCs), the principal
    cerebellar neurons. To assess the functional significance of cerebellar glycogen,
    we analyzed behavior in mice lacking glycogen synthase 1 (Gys1) in BG or PCs using
    a floxed Gys1 line. Gys1 deficiency in either PCs or GFAP-positive cells reduced
    anxiety-like behavior, whereas combined deletion caused PC degeneration and ataxia.
    These findings reveal a critical role for glycogen metabolism in both astrocytes
    and neurons in cerebellar function.

  text: Selecting an appropriate divergence measure is a critical aspect of machine
    learning, as it directly impacts model performance. Among the most widely used,
    we find the Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence, originally introduced in kinetic
    theory as a measure of relative entropy between probability distributions. Just
    as in machine learning, the ability to quantify the proximity of probability distributions
    plays a central role in kinetic theory. In this paper, we present a comparative
    review of divergence measures rooted in kinetic theory, highlighting their theoretical
    foundations and exploring their potential applications in machine learning and
    artificial intelligence.

  text: "We prove the convergence of a modified Jordan–Kinderlehrer–Otto scheme to
    a solution\r\nto the Fokker–Planck equation in Ω e R^d with general—strictly positive
    and temporally\r\nconstant—Dirichlet boundary conditions. We work under mild assumptions
    on the domain,\r\nthe drift, and the initial datum. In the special case where
    Ω is an interval in R1, we prove\r\nthat such a solution is a gradient flow—curve
    of maximal slope—within a suitable space of\r\nmeasures, endowed with a modified
    Wasserstein distance. Our discrete scheme and modified\r\ndistance draw inspiration
    from contributions by A. Figalli and N. Gigli [J. Math. Pures\r\nAppl. 94, (2010),
    pp. 107–130], and J. Morales [J. Math. Pures Appl. 112, (2018), pp. 41–88]\r\non
    an optimal-transport approach to evolution equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions.\r\nSimilarly
    to these works, we allow the mass to flow from/to the boundary ∂Ω throughout\r\nthe
    evolution. However, our leading idea is to also keep track of the mass at the
    boundary\r\nby working with measures defined on the whole closure Ω . The driving
    functional is a\r\nmodification of the classical relative entropy that also makes
    use of the information at the\r\nboundary. As an intermediate result, when Ω is
    an interval in R1, we find a formula for the\r\ndescending slope of this geodesically
    nonconvex functional."

  text: Dipolar (ℓ = 1) mixed modes have revealed a surprisingly weak differential
    rotation between the core and the envelope of evolved solar-like stars. Quadrupolar
    (ℓ = 2) mixed modes also contain information regarding internal dynamics but are
    very rarely characterised due to their low amplitude and the challenging identification
    of adjacent or overlapping rotationally split multiplets affected by near-degeneracy
    effects. We aim to extend the broadly used asymptotic seismic diagnostics beyond
    ℓ = 1 mixed modes by developing an analogue asymptotic description of ℓ = 2 mixed
    modes while explicitly accounting for near-degeneracy effects that distort their
    rotational multiplets. We have derived a new asymptotic formulation of near-degenerate
    mixed ℓ = 2 modes that describes off-diagonal terms representing the interaction
    between modes of adjacent radial orders. This formalism, expressed directly in
    the mixed-mode basis, provides analytical expressions for the near-degeneracy
    effects. We implemented the formalism within a global Bayesian mode-fitting framework
    for a direct fit of all ℓ = 0, 1, 2 modes in the power spectrum density. We were
    able to asymptotically model the asymmetric rotational splitting present in various
    radial orders of ℓ = 2 modes observed in young red giant stars without the need
    for any numerical stellar modelling. We applied our formalism to the Kepler target
    KIC 7341231, and it yielded core and envelope rotation rates consistent with previous
    numerical modelling while providing improved constraints from the global and model-independent
    approach. We also characterised the new target, KIC 8179973, measuring its rotation
    rate and mixed-mode parameters for the first time. As our framework relies on
    a direct global fit, it allows for much better precision on the asteroseismic
    parameters and rotation rate estimates than standard methods, yielding better
    constraints for rotation inversions. We have placed the first observational constraints
    on the asymptotic ℓ = 2 mixed-mode parameters (ΔΠ2, q2, and εg, 2), thus paving
    the way towards the use of asymptotic seismology beyond ℓ = 1 mixed modes.

  text: We compare three global kilometer-scale models (ICON, IFS and NICAM) to clarify
    the advantages and challenges of high-resolution global weather and climate modeling,
    using different approaches to represent convection, from fully parameterized to
    fully explicit. Our analysis focuses on tropical precipitation characteristics
    spanning a wide range of spatio-temporal scales—including the diurnal cycle, extreme
    precipitation, convective organization, and the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO)—along
    with interactions between convection and the thermodynamic environment. All three
    models commonly show weaker convective organization with smaller precipitation
    cells than observed, though the strength of the bias varies by model. This diversity
    is introduced by differences in the representation of (a) convective initiation
    affected by the convective sensitivity to moisture and (b) tropospheric moistening
    associated with deep convection. Models with stronger thermodynamic-convection
    coupling increase environmental moisture near convection, thereby enhancing convective
    organization. This has important upscale effects on the MJO; while IFS and NICAM
    capture its eastward propagation well, ICON has difficulty reproducing it. The
    amplitudes and phases of precipitation diurnal cycles over land show much greater
    disagreement among the models than over ocean, influenced by how convection is
    initiated. Biases in rain evaporation and cold pool formation hinder the propagation
    of mesoscale convection, leading to errors such as the misrepresentation of nocturnal
    convection moving off the coast of Sumatra in IFS and ICON. These results highlight
    the importance of thermodynamic-convection coupling in realistically simulating
    tropical convection across scales. To improve this coupling, kilometer-scale models
    require better representation of the interaction between resolved convection and
    three-dimensional turbulent mixing.

  text: The recent detection of solar equatorial Rossby waves has renewed interest
    in the study of gravito-inertial waves propagating in the convective envelope
    of solar-type stars. In particular, the ability of these envelope gravito-inertial
    modes to couple with those trapped in the radiative interior could open up new
    opportunities for probing the deep-layer dynamics of solar-type stars. The possibility
    for such a coupling to occur is particularly favoured among pre-main-sequence
    (PMS) solar-type stars. Indeed, due to the contraction of the protostellar object,
    they are able to reach high rotation frequencies before nuclear reactions are
    ignited and magnetic braking becomes the driving mechanism for their rotational
    evolution. In this work, we studied the coupling between the envelope inertial
    waves and the radiative interior g modes in PMS stars, focussing on the case of
    prograde dipolar modes. We considered the cases of 0.5 M⊙ and 1 M⊙ PMS models,
    each with three different scenarios of rotational evolution. We show that for
    stars that have formed with a sufficient amount of angular momentum, this coupling
    can occur in frequency ranges that are accessible to space-borne photometry, creating
    inertial dips in the period spacing pattern. Using an asymptotic analysis, we
    characterised the shape of these inertial dips to show that they depend on rotation
    and on the stiffness of the convective-radiative interface.

  text: Kapitza-Dirac scattering, the diffraction of matter waves from a standing
    light field, is widely utilized in ultracold gases, but its behavior in the strongly
    interacting regime is an open question. Here, we develop a numerically exact two-body
    description of Kapitza-Dirac scattering for two contact-interacting atoms in a
    one-dimensional harmonic trap subjected to a pulsed optical lattice, enabling
    us to obtain the numerically exact dynamics. We map how interaction strength,
    lattice depth, lattice wave number, and pulse duration reshape the diffraction
    pattern, leading to an interaction-dependent population redistribution in real
    and momentum space. By comparing the exact dynamics to an impulsive sudden-approximation
    description, we delineate the parameter regimes where it remains accurate and
    those, notably at strong attraction and small lattice wave number, where it fails.
    Our results provide a controlled few-body benchmark for interacting Kapitza-Dirac
    scattering and quantitative guidance for Kapitza-Dirac-based probes of ultracold
    atomic systems.

  text: Model checking undiscounted reachability and expected-reward properties on
    Markov decision processes (MDPs) are key for the verification of systems that
    act under uncertainty. Popular algorithms are policy iteration and variants of
    value iteration; in tool competitions, most participants rely on the latter. These
    algorithms generally need worst-case exponential time. However, the problem can
    equally be formulated as a linear programme, solvable in polynomial time. In this
    paper, we give a detailed overview of today’s state-of-the-art algorithms for
    MDP model checking with a focus on performance and correctness. We highlight their
    fundamental differences, and describe various optimizations and implementation
    variants. We experimentally compare floating-point and exact-arithmetic implementations
    of all algorithms on three benchmark sets using two probabilistic model checkers.
    Our results show that (optimistic) value iteration is a sensible default, but
    other algorithms are preferable in specific settings. This paper thereby provides
    a guide for MDP verification practitioners—tool builders and users alike.
