Disagreement and fragmentation in growing groups

The arise of disagreement is an emergent phenomenon that can be observed within a growing social group and, beyond a certain threshold, can lead to group fragmentation. To better understand how disagreement emerges, we introduce an analytically tractable m ...

Interspecies interactions determine growth dynamics of biopolymer- degrading populations in microbial communities

Martin Ackermann

Microbial communities perform essential ecosystem functions such as the remineralization of organic carbon that exists as biopolymers. The first step in mineralization is performed by biopolymer degraders, which harbor enzymes that can break down polymers ...

Modeling the Shape Evolution of Selective Area Grown Zn3P2 Nanoislands

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Elias Zsolt Stutz, Jean-Baptiste Leran, Mahdi Zamani, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall, Rajrupa Paul, Vladimir Dubrovskii

Selective area growth of zinc phosphide (Zn3P2) on InP provides a pathway to high-quality semiconductor nanostructures and textured thin films made of earth-abundant elements. In the precoalescence stage, Zn3P2 emerges in the form of nanoislands undergoing ...

Antiangiogenic immunotherapy suppresses desmoplastic and chemoresistant intestinal tumors in mice

Matthias Lütolf, Mauro Delorenzi, Laureline Wetterwald, Sina Nassiri, Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Nikolche Gjorevski, Alan Nicolas Thierry Guichard, Simone Ragusa, Borja Prat Luri

Mutations in APC promote colorectal cancer (CRC) progression through uncontrolled WNT signaling. Patients with desmoplastic CRC have a significantly worse prognosis and do not benefit from chemotherapy, but the mechanisms underlying the differential respon ...

Extensive amenability and a Tits alternative for topological full groups

Nóra Gabriella Szoke

This dissertation investigates the amenability of topological full groups using a property of group actions called extensive amenability. Extensive amenability is a core concept of several amenability results for groups of dynamical origin. We study its pr ...

Tuning growth direction of catalyst-free InAs(Sb) nanowires with indium droplets

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Gözde Tütüncüoglu, Martin George Friedl, Heidi Andrea Potts, Nicholas Paul Morgan

The need for indium droplets to initiate self-catalyzed growth of InAs nanowires has been highly debated in the last few years. Here, we report on the use of indium droplets to tune the growth direction of self-catalyzed InAs nanowires. The indium droplets ...

Some consequences of Masser's counting theorem on elliptic curves

Valéry Aurélien Mahé

We use Masser's counting theorem to prove a lower bound for the canonical height in powers of elliptic curves. We also prove the Galois case of the elliptic Lehmer problem, combining Kummer theory and Masser's result with bounds on the rank and torsion of ...

Capital goods, measured TFP and growth: The case of Spain

Luis Franjo Garcia

The effect of investing in equipment and/or structures on TFP and long run growth is investigated here. We argue that economies can grow in spite of stagnant TFP if the investment rate is inefficiently high. We study the case of Spain where real GDP per wo ...

What static and dynamic properties should slalom skis possess? Judgments by advanced and expert skiers

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Christian Fischer, Michael Herzog, Olaf Blanke

Flexural and torsional rigidity are important properties of skis. However, the flexural and torsional rigidity that lead to optimal performance remain to be established. In the present study, four pairs of slalom skis that differed in flexural and torsiona ...
