A posteriori existence for the Keller-Segel model via a finite volume - finite element scheme

arXiv:2509.17710v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We derive two forms of conditional a posteriori error estimates for a finite volume scheme approximating the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system. The estimates control the error in the $L^\infty(0,T, L^2(\Omega))$- and $L^2(0,T;H^1(\Omega))$-norm and exhibit linear convergence in the mesh size, as observed in numerical experiments. Crucially, we show that, as long as the condition of the error estimate is satisfied, a weak solution exists.

A thalamus–brainstem attractor network drives history-biased decisions

Abstract Natural environments often change gradually, making it adaptive to bias decisions on the basis of the recent past — a phenomenon known as serial dependence1,2,3. Large-scale recordings during behaviour have identified that serial dependence is a common motif for decision-making, with neural representations of past experiences found throughout the brain4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. However, it remains unclear whether this bias arises from dedicated neural circuits with history-specific...

Efficient and accurate neural-field reconstruction using resistive memory

Abstract Applications such as medical imaging, augmented and virtual reality, and embodied artificial intelligence (AI) depend on the ability to reconstruct complex signals from sparse observations. These applications are characterized by incomplete measurements and limited computational resources. Traditional approaches to digital hardware face the following challenges: explicit signal representations require heavy sampling and storage, data movement across the von Neumann bottleneck...

$p$-Robust Trace Liftings for Discrete Harmonic Extensions and Boundary-Preserving $hp$ Interpolation on Tetrahedral Meshes

arXiv:2606.02086v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We construct p-robust polynomial trace liftings on three-dimensional tetrahedral meshes. The prescribed trace is a continuous piecewise polynomial function on a boundary face patch; the tetrahedra touching this patch have one common degree, while the interior degrees may be arbitrary. The lifting is degree-preserving, supported in the corresponding boundary layer, and satisfies both an H^1 estimate and a scaled boundary-layer L^2 estimate with...

Directional effects on urban-canopy drag

Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding the influence of wind direction on building drag is essential for predicting urban climate and assessing wind loads in complex urban environments. This study investigates the wind-directional dependence of building drag over the University of Bristol campus, comprising 110 buildings of diverse shapes and heights, using 24 building-resolved large-eddy simulations under a constant imposed pressure gradient.

Mitochondria directly interact with the nuclear pore complex

Abstract Mitochondria regulate cellular processes through direct and indirect interactions with other organelles. A well-studied example has been contact with the endoplasmic reticulum at mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes1, which control pathways including redox and calcium homeostasis2,3. Recent studies have also reported direct mitochondria–nuclear membrane contacts in cancer cells and yeast that promote pro-survival signalling4,5.

Light-induced quantum friction of carbon nanotubes in water

Abstract Friction slows down moving objects at both macroscopic and microscopic scales1. At the electronic level, quantum friction describes direct transfer of momentum between a liquid and the electrons of a solid2. Owing to its microscopic nature, this phenomenon remains experimentally challenging to capture3.

Multimodal sampling via Schr\"odinger-F\"ollmer samplers with temperatures

arXiv:2512.23965v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generating samples from complex and high-dimensional distributions is ubiquitous in various scientific fields of statistical physics, Bayesian inference, scientific computing and machine learning. Very recently, Huang et al. Theory, 2025) proposed new Schr\"odinger-F\"ollmer samplers (SFS), based on the Euler discretization of the Schr\"odinger-F\"ollmer diffusion evolving on the unit interval $[0, 1]$. There, a convergence rate of order...

New Velociraptor cousin was a '4-winged' dragon that hunted prey from the trees of ancient China, fossil find hints

New Velociraptor cousin was a '4-winged' dragon that hunted prey from the trees of ancient China, fossil find hints A new microraptor from Cretaceous China likely preyed on ancient birds. A newly discovered feathered dinosaur with four wing-like limbs may have prowled the lakeside forests of what is now northwestern China, gliding between trees like a flying squirrel and snatching some of the earliest birds out of the Cretaceous sky. The predator, named Jian changmaensis, was a close cousin...

Diverse binding poses of agonistic neurotoxins on human Na<sub>v</sub>1.6

Abstract Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels are key targets of various venomous toxins. Deciphering the binding poses and mechanisms of action of representative toxins will help to dissect the functional mechanism of the channels and facilitate therapeutic development targeting Nav channels1,2. Here we present cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of distinct binding poses of three agonistic peptide toxins on the human Nav1.6–β1 channel complex.
