10-Commutators, 13-commutators and odd derivations
Let \(X_1\), \dots, \(X_n\in Vect(n)\) be vector fields on a smooth manifold \(M\) of dimension \(n\) and define the \(N\)-commutator as \(s_N(X_1,\ldots,X_N)=\sum (-1)^\sigma X_{\sigma(1)}\ldots X_{\sigma(N)}\) where the summation runs over the symmetric group \(Sym_N\) and \((-1)^\sigma\) is the sign of the permutation \(\sigma\).

Fast Simulation of Wide‐Angle Coherent Diffractive Imaging
The propagation multi‐slice Fourier transform method is introduced as an accurate and efficient approach for describing light scattering for arbitrarily shaped objects. Its exceptional suitability for simulating coherent diffractive imaging of nanoparticles in the XUV and soft X‐ray range is demonstrated.
