Astrocyte CCN1 stabilizes neural circuits in the adult brain

Kavli Affiliate: Nicola Allen | Authors: Laura Sancho, Matthew M Boisvert, Trinity Dawoodtabar, Jillybeth Burgado, Ellen Wang and Nicola J Allen | Summary: Neural circuits in many brain regions are refined by experience. Sensory circuits support higher plasticity at younger ages during critical periods – times of circuit refinement and maturation – and limit plasticity […]

Kitaev physics in the two-dimensional magnet NiPSe$_3$

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Cheng Peng, Sougata Mardanya, Alexander N. Petsch, Vineet Kumar Sharma, Shuyi Li | Summary: The Kitaev interaction, found in candidate materials such as $alpha$-RuCl$_3$, occurs through the metal ($M$)-ligand ($X$)-metal ($M$) paths of the edge-sharing octahedra because the large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on the metal atoms activates […]

Self-Supervised Learning for Time Series: Contrastive or Generative?

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Ziyu Liu, Azadeh Alavi, Minyi Li, Xiang Zhang, | Summary: Self-supervised learning (SSL) has recently emerged as a powerful approach to learning representations from large-scale unlabeled data, showing promising results in time series analysis. The self-supervised representation learning can be categorized into two mainstream: contrastive and generative. […]

Tidal evolution of cored and cuspy dark matter halos

Xiaolong Du, Andrew Benson, Zhichao Carton Zeng, Tommaso Treu, Annika H. G. Peter | Summary: [[{“value”:”The internal structure and abundance of dark matter halos and subhalos are powerful probes of the nature of dark matter. In order to compare observations with dark matter models, accurate theoretical predictions of these quantities are needed. We present a […]

Synchronized states of power grids and oscillator networks by convex optimization

Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Carsten Hartmann, Philipp C. Böttcher, David Gross, Dirk Witthaut, | Summary: Synchronization is essential for the operation of AC power systems: All generators in the power grid must rotate with fixed relative phases to enable a steady flow of electric power. Understanding the conditions for and the […]

Analysis of singular subspaces under random perturbations

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, , , , | Summary: We present a comprehensive analysis of singular vector and singular subspace perturbations in the context of the signal plus random Gaussian noise matrix model. Assuming a low-rank signal matrix, we extend the Wedin-Davis-Kahan theorem in a fully generalized manner, applicable […]

Enhanced ClNO$_2$ formation at the interface of sea-salt aerosol

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Seokjin Moon, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: The reactive uptake of $mathrm{N_2O_5}$ on sea-spray aerosol plays a key role in regulating NO$_mathrm{x}$ concentration in the troposphere. Despite numerous field and laboratory studies, a microscopic understanding of its heterogeneous reactivity remains unclear. Here, we use […]
