Mammalian grid cells fire whenever an animal crosses the points of an imaginary, hexagonal grid tessellating the environment. Here, we show how animals can localize themselves and navigate by reading-out a simple population vector of grid cell activity acr ...
The performance of high-temperature solar reactors incorporating porous ceramic materials that serve as radiative absorbers and chemical reaction sites can be improved significantly by tailoring their pore structure. We investigated the changes in their ef ...
Bacterial species take on a wide variety of shapes, but the mechanisms by which specific shapes evolve have remained poorly understood. A recent study demonstrates that two Asticcacaulis species repurposed an ancestral regulatory protein to rewire the modu ...
We investigate various homotopy invariant formulations of commutative algebra in the context of rational homotopy theory. The main subject is the complete intersection condition, where we show that a growth condition implies a structure theorem and that mo ...
We extended a previously developed force matching approach to systems with covalent QM/MM boundaries and describe its user-friendly implementation in the publicly available software package CPMD. We applied this approach to the challenging case of the reti ...
We study classes of modules over a commutative ring which allow to do homological algebra relative to such a class. We classify those classes consisting of injective modules by certain subsets of ideals. When the ring is Noetherian the subsets are precisel ...
Multimedia signals, such as digital images and video sequences, are captured, processed and finally presented to human observers who directly or indirectly judge their quality. During the data acquisition, as well as the many steps of the processing chain, ...
Digital image processing and epi-fluorescence microscopy provide one of the main and basic tools for living biological cells analysis and studying. Developing, testing and comparing those image processing methods properly require the use of a controlled en ...
In this paper, we use projectivity relative to kG-modules to define groups of relatively endotrivial modules, which are obtained by replacing the notion of projectivity with that of relative projectivity in the definition of ordinary endotrivial modules. T ...
D-Finder 2 is a new tool for deadlock detection in concurrent systems based on effective invariant computation to approximate the effects of interactions among modules. It is part of the BIP framework, which provides various tools centered on a component-b ...
