Context Soil microbial communities are key indicators of bio-geochemical processes; however, their response to fungicides across various agro-management systems requires further investigation. Aims Under controlled microcosm conditions, we evaluated the effects of the fungicides...

Abstract Background Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by telangiectasias and visceral arteriovenous malformations. While the clinical manifestations are well described, its psychosocial impact—particularly with regard to v...

Dynamic Polymorphic Routing in Sovereign AI Orchestration: The Flow sDAG Architecture
Current orchestration frameworks for Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on static Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs). While suitable for deterministic data pipelines, static DAGs fail to capture the highly variable, non-linear reality of cognitive tasks. This paper introduces the Flow...

Abstract The Zika virus (ZIKV) promoted global concern in 2015 owing to the outbreak in Brazil related to dramatic neurological complications such as microcephaly. Ten years after the outbreak, this integrative study aimed to analyse the epidemiology of ZIKV in Brazil (2016–2024)...

Excess vocabulary, a word's frequency above its pre-2023 trend, has measured how large language models changed English scholarly writing. We adapt it to Korean and Vietnamese with morphological units, applying it to 316,538 Korean abstracts from 2,258 KCI journals (2018 to August...

Hints of self-medication? Pathogen exposure-dependent foraging decisions of bumblebees
Abstract Self-medication is the selective consumption of compounds that reduce infection and is a widespread form of adaptive plasticity across animals. However, relevant medicinal floral compounds remain poorly tested in bees. Here, we used robotic flowers to test the hypothesis...

Integrating field survey and 3D geological modeling for surface water inrush prevention in valleys
Abstract Extracting shallow coal seams beneath gullies risks catastrophic surface water inrush via mining-induced fractures. Conventional 3D geological models rely heavily on sparse borehole data, causing severe topographic over-smoothing in rugged terrains and undermining hazard...

This report establishes a categorical isomorphism between the Egg Model and the Minkowski causal lattice, showing that their generative operators correspond under a functor preserving causal order, thereby yielding a unified pre‑generative architecture consistent with FRLT’s null...

Taiwan’s Public Diplomacy Efforts in Thailand Under the New Southbound Policy
This study analyzes why the government of Taiwan should engage in smart public diplomacy with the Kingdom of Thailand. It also examines Taiwan’s public policy across the two dimensions of culture and people-to-people engagement for the purpose of sustainable and constructive rela...

THE EINSTEIN RESONANCE DOCTRINE: Why the Man Who Bent Spacetime Could Not Bend Himself
A fully‑reinforced Carlo-coded exploration of Albert Einstein’s cognitive landscape, revealing the discontinuity between his mastery of curvature and his inability to access resonance. This doctrine maps his emotional flatness, his reliance on the violin as a vibrational prosthes...

Learned world models increasingly empower autonomous agents to predict transitions, imagine rollouts, and plan behaviors in complex environments. However,conventional continual world modeling paradigms predominantly formulate lifelong adaptation along a single parametric axis: up...

Abstract The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) has been the global standard for monitoring international trade in wildlife for the past half-century, but compliance is imperfect, in part because of misunderstandings regarding...

Attitudes towards carbon taxation in the EU: messenger effects vs. content effects
Abstract This paper investigates how European Union institutional sources influence public support for carbon taxes through messenger effects. Our framework predicts that support decreases with higher tax rates, an effect moderated by respondents’ associations with the source, na...

Abstract Extant research has established a positive association between work engagement and innovative work behaviour, however the psychological mechanisms underlying this association remain insufficiently understood. Drawing on Broaden-and-Build Theory, the present study examine...

Beyond Accuracy: Measuring Reasoning Consistency Under Quantization in Small Language Models
Quantization enables large language models to run on consumer hardware, but evaluation has focused almost exclusively on mean accuracy, leaving output consistency largely unexamined. We address this gap by evaluating Phi-3.5-mini-instruct at three precision levels, FP16, 4-bit, a...

Abstract Abiotic and biotic factors interact to shape the expression of traits and fitness. In contemporary environments, species must respond not only to novel climates but also to altered biotic interactions, and these pressures likely differ across the landscape, which affects...

Shaped Heights on Pell Unit Orbits: Monotone Dynamics, Depth Recovery, and Sharp Small-Height Bounds
Let N = ℓM ≡ 3 (mod 4) be the product of distinct odd primes 3 ≤ ℓ < M, and put a₀ = ⌊√N⌋. We study positive integral solutions of X² − Ny² = σcℓ, X = a₀y + t, where c ∈ {1,2}. A description by the height t alone is not valid: multiplication by the positive fundamental unit prese...

Online grocery service attributes and customer satisfaction: a weight analysis approach
Abstract With rapid advances in digital technology, online grocery shopping has become an increasingly important retail channel. It offers consumers high convenience, time savings, and flexible access to everyday products. However, as adoption grows, sustaining long-term engageme...

Rigidity, Descents, and Wilf Classification in Pattern-Avoiding Canon Permutations
This focused preprint proves four conjectures on pattern avoidance in canon permutations, gives all twelve fixed-alphabet counting formulas for the 64 subsets of three-letter patterns, classifies those subsets into exactly 21 global canon-Wilf classes, and develops descent and al...
