Intersecting solitons, amoeba, and tropical geometry [PDF]

open access: green, 2008
We study generic intersection (or web) of vortices with instantons inside, which is a 1/4 BPS state in the Higgs phase of five-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric U(Nc) gauge theory on R_t \times (C^\ast)^2 \simeq R^{2,1} \times T^2 with Nf=Nc Higgs scalars ...

Tracking tripartite interaction dynamics: isolation, integration, and influence of bacteriophages in the Paraburkholderia-Dictyostelium discoideum symbiosis system [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionBacteriophages influence interactions between bacterial symbionts and their hosts by exerting parasitic pressure on symbiont populations and facilitating bacterial evolution through selection, gene exchange, and prophage integration.

Dictyostelium discoideum as a Platform to Assess the Cytotoxicity of Marine Algal Extracts: The Case of Glossophora kunthii [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Drugs
The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is a versatile biological model widely used in drug discovery and studying cellular stress responses. However, its application for cytotoxicity evaluation of natural products, particularly algal-derived ...

A distributed file service based on optimistic concurrency control [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The design of a layered file service for the Amoeba Distributed System is discussed, on top of which various applications can easily be intplemented. The bottom layer is formed by the Amoeba Block Services, responsible for implementing stable storage and

The ‘Amoeboid Predator-Fungal Animal Virulence’ Hypothesis

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2019
The observation that some aspects of amoeba-fungal interactions resemble animal phagocytic cell-fungal interactions, together with the finding that amoeba passage can enhance the virulence of some pathogenic fungi, has stimulated interest in the amoeba ...

Analysis of Amoeba Active Contours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Subject of this paper is the theoretical analysis of structure-adaptive median filter algorithms that approximate curvature-based PDEs for image filtering and segmentation. These so-called morphological amoeba filters are based on a concept introduced by

Amoeba-Resisting Bacteria and Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
To evaluate the role of amoeba-associated bacteria as agents of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), we tested the water from an intensive care unit (ICU) every week for 6 months for such bacteria isolates; serum samples and bronchoalveolar lavage ...

SPATIAL-VARIANT MORPHOLOGICAL FILTERS WITH NONLOCAL-PATCH-DISTANCE-BASED AMOEBA KERNEL FOR IMAGE DENOISING

open access: yesImage Analysis and Stereology, 2015
Filters of the Spatial-Variant amoeba morphology can preserve edges better, but with too much noise being left. For better denoising, this paper presents a new method to generate structuring elements for Spatially-Variant amoeba morphology.

Are physiological oscillations physiological?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

AMOEBAS AND INSTANTONS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics A, 2007
We study a statistical model of random plane partitions. The statistical model has interpretations as five-dimensional [Formula: see text] supersymmetric SU (N) Yang–Mills on ℝ4× S1and as Kähler gravity on local SU (N) geometry. At the thermodynamic limit a typical plane partition called the limit shape dominates in the statistical model.
