Cloud-aided multi-party private set intersection using Chinese national cryptographic algorithms
Abstract Multi-party private set intersection (MPSI) is a fundamental primitive for privacy-preserving data collaboration, enabling multiple parties to compute the common elements of their private sets without revealing non-intersection elements. Existing MPSI protocols are mainl...

ModMax black hole surrounded by cloud of strings in bumblebee gravity
Abstract In this article, we investigate the optical, thermodynamic, and scattering properties of a ModMax black hole surrounded by a cloud of strings within the framework of Einstein-bumblebee gravity. We then analyze in detail the thermodynamic properties of this black hole, in...

Abstract We consider homogenization of semilinear elliptic PDE systems of the type $$ \partial _{x_i}\Big (a^{\alpha \beta }_{ij}(\varepsilon ,x) \partial _{x_j}u^\beta (x) +f_i^\alpha (x,u(x))\Big )=0 \text{ in } \Omega , \; \alpha =1,\ldots ,n, $$ ∂ x i ( a ij α β ( ε , x ) ∂ x...

Assessing the need for reproductive genetic counseling among adults with cystic fibrosis
Abstract Background Reproductive health has become an increasingly important focus for people with cystic fibrosis (CF), and guidelines have recommended routine inclusion of genetic counselors on care teams to address questions regarding infertility, pregnancy planning, prenatal...

AGN Reference Fields: finding charts and comparison-star sequences for optical AGN monitoring
AGN Reference Fields is a citable reference dataset for differential optical photometry of active galactic nuclei. Version 1.0 contains finding-chart information and local comparison-star sequences for Mrk 42, IC 5287, and Mrk 845, based on IAC80/CAMELOT2 observations. The archiv...

False data injection attacks (FDIA) pose a growing threat to distributed energy resources (DER) aggregators because a compromised aggregator can expose and affect a number of enrolled DERs. However, DER aggregators only have access to limited measurements from DERs and the system...

Abstract. Ground-based and satellite atmospheric observations are essential for reducing uncertainties in methane (CH4) emissions by atmospheric inversion, particularly in data-sparse regions such as Africa. However, adding new observation sites does not yield linear improvements...

Particle colliders are justified in part by the assumption that high-energy collisions reproduce the conditions of the early universe shortly after the Big Bang, thereby granting experimental access to the fundamental constituents of matter. This paper examines that justification...
