III-V semiconductor nanowires are, due to their unique properties, one of the most promising nanostructures developed in the last decades. However, the realization of commercial devices made of III-V nanowires, such as transistors and solar cells, has not ...
Let G be a classical group with natural module V over an algebraically closed field of good characteristic. For every unipotent element u of G, we describe the Jordan block sizes of u on the irreducible G-modules which occur as compositio ...
We develop an elementary algebraic method to compute the center of the principal block of a small quantum group associated with a complex semisimple Lie algebra at a root of unity. The cases of sl(3) and sl(4) are computed explicitly. This allows us to for ...
Bcl9 and Pygopus (Pygo) are obligate Wnt/beta-catenin cofactors in Drosophila, yet their contribution to Wnt signaling during vertebrate development remains unresolved. Combining zebrafish and mouse genetics, we document a conserved, beta-catenin-associate ...

Portland cement has been in use by human civilization for over a century. Yet, we do not fully understand its hydration reaction mechanisms due to the complexity of the system and its continued reaction over time making it hard to study it experimentally. ...
We study the conformal data of a generic superconformal line defect preserving half of the supercharges in a four-dimensional N = 2 conformal theory. We prove a theory independent relation between the one-point function of the stress tensor in the presence ...
Using a hybrid density-functional scheme, we address the O impurity substitutional to N (O-N) in In0.17Al0.83N. Our modelling supports In clustering to account for the strong band-gap bowing observed in InxAl1-xN alloys. To study the ON defect in In0.17Al0 ...
The results of recent studies of domain walls and their interaction with defects in BaTiO3, Pb(Zr, Ti)O-3, and BiFeO3 are discussed. The studies reveal why donor- and acceptor-doped Pb(Zr, Ti)O-3 behave differently, what is the role of stationary charged d ...
We consider a natural subclass of harmonic maps from a surface into G/T, namely cyclic primitive maps. Here G is any simple real Lie group (not necessarily compact), T is a Cartan subgroup and both are chosen so that there is a Coxeter automorphism on G(C) ...
Computer model-based simulations have shown that rapid stimulation at 60-100% of atrial fibrillation cycle length (AFCL) from a ring of electrodes located around the septum may induce local capture in both atria for most AF dynamics. The present study aims ...
Defect engineering is one of the cornerstones of the modern electronics industry. Almost all electronic devices include materials that have been doped by ion bombardment. For materials where crystallinity is essential, such as ferroelectrics, defect type a ...
