Beyond Kimi K3: Spillover Effects of Frontier AI Competition on Health Care

Abstract The July release of Kimi K3, an open-weight frontier AI model, is the latest milestone in the heated competition between AI developers in China and the United States. In this News and Perspectives article, JMIR Correspondent Tejas S Athni reports on how health care syste...

Hydrogen bonding: a double-edged sword in aqueous ammonium-ion batteries

Hydrogen bonding plays a double-edged role in ammonium-ion batteries, facilitating ion transport and flexible storage while inducing instability. Rational regulation of these interactions is crucial for achieving high-performance.

Direct avirulence effector-receptor interaction confers wheat immunity against insects

Wheat immunity against the global pest Hessian fly operates on a gene-for-gene basis, yet molecular mechanisms underlying resistance-avirulence interactions have remained elusive for over five decades due to the absence of any cloned insect-resistance gene. Here, we cloned the H1...

A two-certificate trace-energy deduction for simple zeros of the Riemann zeta function

This preprint gives the research-draft candidate lower bound `liminf_{T->infinity} N_0^s(T,2T)/N(T,2T) >= 0.6733169771424713... > 0.673316977` for the proportion of simple zeros of the Riemann zeta function on thecritical line. The new step is finite-dimensional: certified seven-...

MODEL ADOPTION #1003: REJECT — TG AUTO: New edge proposed: pivot_point_reversal_absorption — E8 Intelligence Research

DECISION: REJECT ELEMENT: The pivot_point_reversal_absorption rule is not compatible with E8 geometry timing. E8 scalps on 15s–7m sacred geometry targets, not on 20-bar pivot structures that require multi-bar confirmation. The 3-bar reversal window alone can span 3–15 minutes in...

Enhancing Protection Coordination Robustness in DER-Rich Grids Through Deep Learning-Based Preventive Relay Setting Calibration

The increasing penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) introduces significant operational uncertainties, challenging the reliability and robustness of conventional protection coordination in distribution networks. Traditional optimization methods can obtain high-qualit...

Colorectal Cancer and the Enigma Surrounding Non-Canonical Wnt Signaling

Since the discovery of truncated mutations of adenomatous polyposis coli proteins in familial adenoma patients in 1991, the mechanism of cytosolic β-catenin regulation has been intensively studied, and now it is very well known that the central role of the canonical Wnt/β-catenin...

Carbon-rich carbon nitride for singlet-oxygen-driven photocatalytic degradation of benzophenone-3 and coral vitality recovery

Coral reefs, vital marine ecosystems, are increasingly threatened by global warming and chemical pollutants such as benzophenone-3 (BP-3), a widely used UV filter. To address this challenge, we present a carbon-doped graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) photocatalyst with efficient...

Separation of xylene isomers in an adaptable metal-organic framework

Efficient separation of xylene isomers by adsorption remains challenging due to insufficient selectivity arising from their molecular similarity. We report an adaptable metal-organic framework, Ni(BIC) 2 [1- H -benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid (HBIC)], that exhibits high selectivi...

Dual-Derivative Power Theorem: Group Homomorphic Structure on Hybrid Characteristic Abelian Groups

We define the hybrid characteristic Abelian group H_D(γ,p) = R^D × F_p^D with a unified nonlinear operator: a ⊕_γ b = a + b + γ·(a⊙b) acting simultaneously on real (characteristic 0) and finite field (characteristic p) components. We introduce the dual-derivative power operator D...

Metaverse Implications: A Taxonomy

The metaverse is emerging as a transformative virtual environment that promises to reshape people's lives, introducing broad technological, social, economic, and cultural changes. Despite growing academic interest, existing literature remains dispersed, addressing isolated techno...

Bayesian variable selection for joint models of heterogeneous longitudinal variables and a binary outcome

Biomedical studies often collect mixed-type longitudinal data (e.g., clinical, lifestyle) to identify predictors of a binary health outcome. A common analytical challenge is to link these irregularly collected variables to the outcome, particularly when the number of potential pr...

Media Claims of Quantum Brain Effects Lack Evidence, Rely on Marketing and Cosmology — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Popular media reports claim new evidence for quantum effects in the brain, but the provided sources are primarily video titles and one unrelated cosmology paper (BRAIN/CLOVER CMB experiment). No specific mathematical or experimental data is extractable from these summari...

Error Analysis of Deep Learning

This review examines deep learning theory through the lens of error decomposition, systematically addressing approximation, statistical, and optimization errors. We trace the field's methodological evolution from traditional partial error analyses to emerging unified frameworks t...

The cost of isolation. Examining the impact of workplace ostracism on employees' extra-role behaviors

Purpose Drawing from the conservation of resources (COR) theory, this study explores workplace ostracism's impact on employees' extra-role behaviors through the mediation of thriving at work and organization-based self-esteem (OBSE). Further analysis was conducted in order to exa...

Loss Function of ClARF4 Reduces Plant Height and Cell Size in Watermelon

Auxin response factors (ARFs) are key transcription factors regulating plant growth and development, but their functions and molecular mechanisms in stem elongation of cucurbit crops remain unclear. In this study, we identified a nuclear-localized ARF member, ClARF4, in watermelo...

Exploration ofZnO-Chitosan Nanoparticles to EnhanceDefense Gene Expression in Rice against Brown Planthopper

Abstract This study investigated the effects of noncomposite and composite forms of ZnO-chitosan nanoparticles (ZnO-Chi-NPs) on the activation of defense-related genes against brown planthopper (BPH) infestation in rice seedlings. Composites of ZnO-Chi-NPs were prepared by a wet...

ONTOLOGICAL RESOLUTION OF THE YANG-MILLS MASS GAP: Exact Derivation via T^6/Z_3 Orbifold Geometry, PT-Symmetric Riemann Hamiltonian H_DR, and Informational Friction \Phi_UFI

The Yang-Mills existence and mass gap problem posed by the Clay Mathematics Institute is resolved by proving that the spectral mass gap (\Delta_{CoH} > 0) is a non-negotiable ontological imperative of the Quantum-Geometric Numerical Fabric (\mathcal{T}_{NCG}). We demonstrate that...
