Whole-brain neural substrates of behavioral variability in the larval zebrafish

Kavli Affiliate: Alipasha Vaziri | Authors: Jason Manley and Alipasha Vaziri | Summary: Animals engaged in naturalistic behavior can exhibit a large degree of behavioral variability even under sensory invariant conditions. Such behavioral variability can include not only variations of the same behavior, but also variability across qualitatively different behaviors driven by divergent cognitive states, […]

Experimental realization of the ground state for the antiferromagnetic Ising model on a triangular lattice

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Xing-Jian Liu, Li-Ming Tu, Jia-Jie Zhang, Vladimir N. Gladilin | Summary: The antiferromagnetic Ising model on a triangular lattice (AFIT) exemplifies the most classical frustration system, arising from its triangular geometry that prevents all interactions from being simultaneously satisfied. Understanding geometric frustration in AFIT is […]
