Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | First 5 Authors: Xingzhou Tang, Ali Mozaffari, Noe Atzin, Soumik Das, Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary: Solitons in nematic liquid crystals offer intriguing opportunities for transport and sensing in microfluidic systems. Little is known about the elementary conditions that are needed to create solitons in nematic materials. In this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, , , , | Summary: We show that every codimension one partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism must support on $mathbb{T}^{n}$. It is locally uniquely integrable and derived from a linear codimension one Anosov diffeomorphism. Moreover, this system is intrinsically ergodic, and the A. Katok’s conjecture about the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Colm P Kelleher, Yash Rana, Daniel J Needleman, , | Summary: During eukaryotic cell division, a microtubule-based structure called the spindle exerts forces on chromosomes, thereby organizing and segregating them Extensive work demonstrates that the forces acting parallel to the spindle axis, including those responsible for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel J. Needleman | First 5 Authors: Colm P Kelleher, Daniel J Needleman, , , | Summary: To prepare gametes with the appropriate number of chromosomes, mammalian oocytes undergo two sequential cell divisions. During each division, a large, long-lived, microtubule-based organelle called the meiotic spindle assembles around condensed chromosomes. Although meiotic spindles have […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Gordon H. Y. Li, Christian R. Leefmans, James Williams, Alireza Marandi, | Summary: Cellular automata are a class of computational models based on simple rules and algorithms that can simulate a wide range of complex phenomena. However, when using conventional computers, these ‘simple’ rules are only encapsulated […]
Kavli Affiliate: Larry Abbott, Nathaniel Sawtell | Authors: Salomon Zev Muller, Larry F Abbott and Nathaniel B Sawtell | Summary: Abstract Homeostatic (anti-Hebbian) forms of synaptic are effective at eliminating “prediction errors” that signal the differences between predicted and actual sensory input. However, such mechanisms appear to preclude the possibility of transmitting the resulting predictions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dwight Bergles, Patrick Kanold | Authors: Calvin J Kersbergen, Travis A Babola, Patrick O Kanold and Dwight E Bergles | Summary: ABSTRACT Intrinsically generated neural activity propagates through the developing auditory system to promote maturation and refinement of sound processing circuits prior to hearing onset. This early patterned activity is induced by non-sensory […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Phillip Helms, Songela W. Chen, David T. Limmer, , | Summary: Using a thermodynamically consistent, mesoscopic model for modern complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor transistors, we study an array of logical circuits and explore how their function is constrained by recent thermodynamic uncertainty relations when operating near thermal energies. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Wenjin Zhao, Bowen Shen, Zui Tao, Zhongdong Han, Kaifei Kang | Summary: The Kondo lattice, describing a matrix of local magnetic moments coupled via spin-exchange interactions to itinerant conduction electrons, is a prototype of strongly correlated quantum matter. Traditionally, Kondo lattices are realized in intermetallic compounds containing […]
