Wrapped branes and punctured horizons by Bobev, N, Bomans, P, Gautason, FF

“…We show that some singular solutions of the Liouville equation have a physical interpretation as explicit point-like brane sources on the Riemann surface. We uncover the details of this picture by focusing on $\mathcal{N}$ = 1 theories of class $\mathcal{S}$ arising from M5-branes on a punctured Riemann surface. …”

Linguistic distance and market integration in India by Fenske, J, Kala, N

“…A one-standard-deviation increase in linguistic distance predicts a reduction in the price correlation between two markets of 0.121 standard deviations for wheat, 0.181 for salt, and 0.088 for rice. While factors like genetic distance, literacy gaps, and railway connections are correlated with linguistic distance, they do not fully explain the correlation between linguistic distance and market integration.…”

A contract negotiation scheme for safety verification of interconnected systems by Tan, X, Papachristodoulou, A, Dimarogonas, DV

“…In this paper, we show that compositional methods like AGC can mitigate this problem. We formulate the synthesis problem into a set of small-size problems, which constructs local contracts for subsystems, and propose a negotiation scheme among the subsystems at the contract level. …”

Digital Anatomy : Applications of Virtual, Mixed and Augmented Reality / by Uhl, Jean-François, editor 643187, Jorge, J. A. (Joaquim Armando), editor 643188, Lopes, Daniel Simões, editor 643190, Campos, Pedro F., editor 643191

“…Recent studies show that Virtual (VR), Augmented (AR), and Mixed-Reality (MR) can improve both retention and learning outcomes. Readers will find relevant tutorials about three-dimensional reconstruction techniques to perform virtual dissections. …”

Essays on merchant-generated contents and merchant-to-merchant spillovers in e-commerce platform by Zhang, Xueli

“…Retailers have incentives to exaggerate their product quality to attract more consumers, but with the option of returns, retailers should reconsider it, since consumers might return the product if they find the real product quality is lower than the retailer-displayed quality. …”

High p16 expression and heterozygous RB1 loss are biomarkers for CDK4/6 inhibitor resistance in ER+ breast cancer by Palafox, Marta, Monserrat, Laia, Bellet, Meritxell, Villacampa, Guillermo, Gonzalez-Perez, Abel, Oliveira, Mafalda, Brasó-Maristany, Fara, Ibrahimi, Nusaibah, Kannan, Srinivasaraghavan, Mina, Leonardo, Herrera-Abreu, Maria Teresa, Òdena, Andreu, Sánchez-Guixé, Mònica, Capelán, Marta, Azaro, Analía, Bruna, Alejandra, Rodríguez, Olga, Guzmán, Marta, Grueso, Judit, Viaplana, Cristina, Hernández, Javier, Su, Faye, Lin, Kui, Clarke, Robert B., Caldas, Carlos, Arribas, Joaquín, Michiels, Stefan, García-Sanz, Alicia, Turner, Nicholas C., Prat, Aleix, Nuciforo, Paolo, Dienstmann, Rodrigo, Verma, Chandra Shekhar, Lopez-Bigas, Nuria, Scaltriti, Maurizio, Arnedos, Monica, Saura, Cristina, Serra, Violeta

“…Here, we show that p16 overexpression is associated with reduced antitumor activity of CDK4/6 inhibitors in patient-derived xenografts (n = 37) and estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cell lines, as well as reduced response of early and advanced breast cancer patients to CDK4/6 inhibitors (n = 89). …”

Characterizing the conformational landscape of MDM2-binding p53 peptides using molecular dynamics simulations by Yadahalli, Shilpa, Li, Jianguo, Lane, David P., Gosavi, Shachi, Verma, Chandra Shekhar

“…Complementing earlier observations, the current study suggests that the p53 peptides largely follow the ‘conformational selection’ paradigm in their recognition of and complexation by MDM2 while the 12/1 peptides likely undergo some element of conformational selection but are mostly driven by ‘binding induced folding’. …”
