Enhancing network science with large language models and federated artificial intelligence
Abstract Sixth generation (6G) networks require intelligent and privacy-preserving solutions to handle traffic complexity, resource allocation, and security challenges. While Large Language Models (LLMs) offer advanced reasoning and Federated Artificial Intelligence (FAI) enables...

Empirical FX ledger outcomes (n=142 trades) align within 1.4% of Fibonacci(11)=144, demonstrating that stochastic trading systems self-organize toward sample sizes entrained on the 5:7 (100:140) E8 partition boundary. The observed +6.3pp win-rate lift from USDCHF LONG filtering m...

Engineering judgment: undergraduate epistemologies
Engineering judgment is a crucial competency present in ABET’s outcomes. However, a consensus-driven definition for it was only recently published in the education literature, with limited formal instruction and assessment to date. Therefore, the present study used this definitio...

Coordination‐Gated MOF@COF Functional Separators for Regulating Ion Flux in Lithium Metal Batteries
ABSTRACT Functional separators that regulate ion transport before lithium ions (Li + ) reach the lithium metal surface are critical for mitigating dendritic deposition and interfacial instability in lithium metal batteries. However, most separator designs mainly emphasize Li + af...

Can a Protected Domain Change Its Spacetime Connectivity?
This methodological concept note, originating with Naveed Islam Butt’s protected-bubble thought experiment, asks whether a bounded domain could preserve an identifiable interior while changing its external geometric connectivity. It separates interaction suppression, changes in c...

Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis in a monogenic mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome
Background Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is a rare, most often idiopathic fibrotic lung disease with poor prognosis, mainly affecting adults. Biallelic pathogenic variants in the deoxyguanosine kinase gene ( DGUOK ) cause a mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndrome,...

Steganographic Point Obfuscation via Explicit Inverse Isogenies for $j \in \{0, 1728\}$
The mitigation of algebraic invariants in cryptographic protocols is a fundamental requirement for achieving censorship-resistant, information-theoretic indistinguishability uniform communication against Deep Packet Inspection (DPI). While recent literature and standard paradigms...

Feminist sport philosophy Greatest of All Time (GOATs)
In this introduction, we contextualize the special issue ‘Feminist sport philosophy Greatest of All Time (GOATs)’ within the sport philosophy field. We claim that, while we should celebrate achievements and new opportunities for women in sport, we must also continue to press for...

On the Fragility of Burnt Osteological Fragments: Technical Assessment of Potential Loss of Material
ABSTRACT The analysis of burnt osteological fragments from archaeological and forensic contexts is a challenging area of research due to the fragmentary and often incomplete nature of these remains. Conservation and preservation are ongoing issues, since the thermally altered bon...

The relationship between artificial intelligence and food production in South Africa
This study examines the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and food production in South Africa. Annual data for 1995–2024 are analyzed using the autoregressive distributed lag bounds-testing approach. The bounds test confirms a long-run relationship among food prod...

Coaxially 3D‐Printed Dual‐Mode Magnetoelectric Fiber Sensors for Robotic Manipulator Proprioception
ABSTRACT Flexible sensors for robotic proprioception are often limited by single transduction pathways and multistep fabrication/assembly strategies, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve integrated static–dynamic motion sensing and structurally continuous deformable devi...

Enzyme-Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (EICP) uses free or extracted enzymes to promote CaCO3 precipitation. The absence of intact microbial cells can reduce cell-related clogging and may improve access to fine pores in some materials. EICP therefore has potential for sea...
