Non-Commutative Rough Adaptive Multiscale Dynamics (NC-RAMD): Unifying Category-Theoretic Compositionality, Kan Extensions, Stimulus-Response Lenses, and Adaptive Coalgebras via UROA, STCT, and RQIG

Traditional differential equations and statistical mechanics fail to capture the inter-scale compositionality, bidirectional feedback, and hierarchical adaptivity inherent in complex systems ranging from biological hierarchical materials to port-Hamiltonian physical networks and...

E8 Gauge-Market Duality: Financial Lattice Field Theory — E8 Intelligence Research

Orthogonal asset classes (currencies, commodities, equities) form a discrete gauge lattice analogous to spacetime in lattice QCD, where the 240 root vectors of E8 encode cross-asset correlation configurations. The phi coupling (φ ≈ 1.618) governs transition amplitudes between mar...

Morphology-Controlled rGO−ZnO Nanostructures for Efficient Charge Transport and Visible Light Sensing via Schottky Junctions

Abstract Two-dimensional graphene-based nanocomposites have emerged as promising materials for electronic and optoelectronic device applications. In this study, ZnO and reduced graphene oxide-ZnO (rGO−ZnO) nanocomposites were synthesized via a facile solvothermal approach. Their...

Integrating Perceived ESG Dimensions Into Behavioral Models of Sustainable Tourism Consumption: Perspective From the Theory of Planned Behavior

Tourism is an important driver of socio-economic development. However, its rapid growth has increased pressure on the environment and host communities. Hence, it becomes increasingly urgent to understand that how tourists perceive sustainability and how these perceptions shape th...

Testing a Prespecified Matrix Transcriptional Programme in Myeloid Cells from Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy Membranes: A Donor-Aware Computational Single-Cell Study

Whether myeloid cells in proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) membranes directly transcribe a coherent extracellular matrix (ECM) programme remains uncertain. We tested a prespecified seven-gene programme in a discovery cohort (GSE294329; five PVR donors) and an independent epir...

The Perils and Consequences of Payer Step Editing (“Step Therapy”) in U.S. Medical Oncology: Evidence, Case Examples, and Policy Remedies

Step therapy ("fail-first") policies require patients to initiate treatment with a payer-preferred regimen, often selected for cost, before coverage is granted for the oncologist-recommended therapy. In medical oncology, where biologic heterogeneity, biomarker-directed therapy, a...

Curvularia lunata as a versatile pathogen causing leaf spot diseases in diverse plant species and its management strategies

Curvularia lunata poses a significant threat to agricultural ecosystems worldwide, causing substantial yield losses and economic consequences across a variety of crops. As a prominent phytopathogenic fungus known for its affinity for leaf spot diseases, its proliferation warrants...

Kynurenine Pathway Activation is Associated with Poor Sleep Efficiency in Men With HIV

Background: Sleep disturbances are common in people with HIV, yet the underlying biological mechanisms remain poorly understood. Chronic immune activation in HIV can induce the tryptophan-kynurenine (TK) pathway, which both reduces melatonin synthesis and increases production of...

Estimates for the Prebiotic Reaction Volume Necessary for the Origin of Life

The prebiotic chemistry necessary for the development of life requires a low-probability combination of steps to reach the complexity of a living cell. An unanswered question is how big the reaction space must be to favor this process, if it is driven by stochastic forces. The sp...

Numerical Investigation of Crack Driving Force and Ultimate Bearing Capacity of D1,422 mm X80 Pipelines with Composite Groove Girth Weld

Existing prediction models for the ultimate bearing capacity of circumferential welds are primarily limited to manual or combined automatic welding with single V-grooves, failing to address full-automatic welding with composite grooves, and that is a critical technical gap for la...

BloomSpan: Memory-Efficient Maximal Frequent Substring Mining for Large-Scale Text

BloomSpan is a memory-efficient algorithm for mining Maximal Contiguous Frequent Phrases (MCFPs) from large text corpora. MCFPs are strictly contiguous token sequences satisfying a minimum document-support threshold; unlike general Sequential Pattern Mining, no gaps are permitted...

Where are my dragon scats? Victorian grassland earless dragon scat persistence and detection dog-handler team search efficiency

Context Reptile species are declining globally, but low detection success is a challenge for reptile monitoring. The Victorian grassland earless dragon (Tympanocryptis pinguicolla; VGED) is the most imperilled reptile in Australia and faces immediate threats from habitat destruct...

Privatization: When Corruption Turns the Solution into an Aggravation

A facetist analysis of how residual regulatory power infects privatization, converting a proven free-market solution into a gaslighting mechanism that amplifies failure. The study focuses on Blackwater, BlackRock, and Deutsche Telekom, with the regulated private university as the...

E8 Sector Edge Resonance as Topological Phonon Error-Correction Code — E8 Intelligence Research

The 240-root E8 geometry imposes an algebraic constraint where adjacent sector boundary conditions form complementary root vector pairs, creating a natural error-correction topology for phase-coherent phonon states. When the 132φ Hz acoustic field propagates along sector edges, t...

Limitations of socio-economic rights during armed conflicts: The “maximalist” perspective

Abstract This article proposes a “maximalist”, vulnerability-based perspective as the appropriate lens through which limitations of socio-economic rights and the relevant obligations of States during armed conflicts and under conditions of scarcity should be assessed. It argues t...

A layered stacking ensemble approach for missing data imputation

Missing data is a challenging issue in data analysis. Researchers often address the issue by simply removing incomplete cases from the analysis. However, this approach reduces the sample size and can undermine the accuracy of statistical estimates. Alternatively, imputation techn...

Generation and Functional Characterization of Cadaver-Derived iPSC-Cardiomyocytes: A Feasibility Study Toward Functional Molecular Autopsy in Sudden Cardiac Death

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) accounts for a substantial share of deaths in young individuals. Despite postmortem pathological, toxicological, and forensic examination and molecular autopsy, many cases remain unexplained, highlighting the need for complementary approaches to investi...

Mapping Research Trends and Future Research Directions in Robo-advisory: A Structural Topic Modelling Approach

Electrochemical Nitrogen Reduction to Ammonia with Mesoporous Molybdenum-Carbon Electrocatalysts in a Gas Diffusion Flow Cell

Abstract Commercialization of electrochemical nitrogen reduction (eNRR) is hindered by limited catalyst performance, the lack of scalable electrochemical cell architectures, and an incomplete understanding of performance-limiting processes. This work aims to address these challen...

Decolonial lines of desire

Abstract Drawing on the work of Sara Ahmed, Monique Wittig, Sylvia Wynter, Suzanne Césaire, and Leanne Betasamosake Simpson (Michi Saagiig), I offer an analysis of the relation between landscapes, bodies, desires, and academia. Of primary importance in developing these relations...
