An algebra structure on the homology of free loop spaces
(2025)String topology studies the spaces of paths and loops in a manifold. An interesting topic in this theory is the existence of an algebra structure on the homology of free loop spaces. This algebra structure comes from the ... -
Methylated genes as biomarkers for melanoma prognosis
(2025)Melanoma is a rare but deadly form of skin cancer. Currently, patients undergo excision surgery, followed by adjuvant treatment if the cancer has metastasized. To estimate the prognosis of the disease, pathological examination ... -
Assessing the importance of arm Weakness as a symptom for urgency allocation and diagnosing TIA/Stroke in Out-of-Hours GP Services
(2025)Background: Arm weakness is a common TIA/stroke symptom in the FAST mnemonic but can be difficult to recognise by patients. Rapid identification is crucial, as delayed treatment increases the risk of permanent brain damage. ... -
Analyzing the Potential of MCFC-based CO2 Capture and Storage Onboard Seagoing Vessels: A Techno-Economic Assessment
(2025)Reducing carbon emissions from the naval shipping sector is crucial for lowering global CO2 levels. For complete decarbonization, transitioning to sustainable, non-carbon-based fuels is necessary. However, carbon capture ... -
Dependency on CEP192 and AKAP9 for the organization of the microtubule network
(2025)The microtubule network is organized by microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs). These organize the network by nucleating new microtubules and binding their minus ends. In many types of animal cells, the centrosome functions ... -

On Rényi entropy in quantum information theory
(2025)Quantum systems are systems of small physical objects such as particles. Quantum theory uses mathematics to describe and predict the behaviour of a quantum system. We can ask ourselves which fields of mathematics are used ... -
Dynamic point-line configurations
(2025)A set of points and lines is called a configuration if every line contains the same amount of points, and every point lies on the same amount of lines. A configuration with π points and λ lines with every point lying on m ...
