Sums of GUE matrices and concentration of hives from correlation decay of eigengaps by Narayanan, Hariharan, Sheffield, Scott, Tao, Terence

“…Our main ingredients include a representation due to Speyer of augmented hives involving a supremum of linear functions applied to a product of Gelfand–Tsetlin polytopes; known results by Klartag on the KLS conjecture in order to handle the aforementioned supremum; covariance bounds of Cipolloni–Erdős–Schröder of eigenvalue gaps of GUE; and the use of the theory of determinantal processes to analyze the GUE minor process.…”

Mapping the structural and dynamical features of multiple p53 DNA binding domains : insights into loop 1 intrinsic dynamics by Lukman, Suryani., Lane, David P., Verma, Chandra S.

“…The transcription factor p53 regulates cellular integrity in response to stress. p53 is mutated in more than half of cancerous cells, with a majority of the mutations localized to the DNA binding domain (DBD). In order to map the structural and dynamical features of the DBD, we carried out multiple copy molecular dynamics simulations (totaling 0.8 μs). …”
