We analyze the universal conformational properties of comblike polymer topologies in the dilute-solution regime. To this end, we evaluate the effective radii of gyration of polymer structures across a range of parameters, including the numb...

Phylogenetic trees capture evolutionary relationships among species and reflect the forces that shaped them. While many studies rely on branch length information, the topology of phylogenetic trees--particularly their degree of imbalance--o...
Magnetically controlled double-twist director configuration of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals in cylinders: Energetics, topological defects, and instability [0.03%]

We study experimentally how the double-twist (DT) configuration of cylindrically confined lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) responds to axial magnetic fields. Our director field model unveils the energetics behind the magnetic-fie...

Dark solitons and interactions are investigated in nonlocal media under the condition of fourth-order diffraction (FOD). In the case of weak nonlocality or rectangular nonlocal response function, analytical solutions of dark solitons are ob...

Extraction of useful work from the chaotic environments remains a captivating challenge. A gear in the bath of self-propelling eccentric particles is investigated by computer simulation. We find that the asymmetrical gear can rotate in a sp...

Electric fields can modify protein-protein interactions and thereby influence phase behavior. In lysozyme-sodium thiocyanate solutions, we recently observed shifts in both the crystallization boundary and the liquid-liquid phase separation ...

Light can be squeezed by reducing the quantum uncertainty of the electric field for some phases. We show how to use this purely quantum effect to extract net mechanical work from radiation pressure in a simple quantum photon engine. Along t...

In the presence of an external magnetic field with strength exceeding a certain critical threshold, a right circularly polarized (RCP) laser pulse propagates through an otherwise opaque target. This significantly alters the conventional las...

Learning from experience is a key feature of decision-making in cognitively complex organisms. Strategic interactions involving Bayesian inferential strategies can enable us to better understand how evolving individual choices to be altruis...
Opinion polarization and its connected disagreement: Modeling and modulation [0.03%]

Divergent opinions resulting from polarization are widespread across various fields, including economics, technology, and politics, and are often considered the genesis of disagreement among people. Numerous studies were therefore devoted t...
