2-Conformal Vector Fields on the Model Sol Space and Hyperbolic Ricci Solitons

Journal of Mathematics
In this study, we present the notion of 2-conformal vector fields on Riemannian and semi-Riemannian manifolds, which are an extension of Killing and conformal vector fields. Next, we provide suitable vector fields in Sol space that are 2-conformal. A few

From spinning conformal blocks to matrix Calogero-Sutherland models

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this paper we develop further the relation between conformal four-point blocks involving external spinning fields and Calogero-Sutherland quantum mechanics with matrix-valued potentials.

Pole-skipping of scalar and vector fields in hyperbolic space: conformal blocks and holography

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Motivated by the recent connection between pole-skipping phenomena of two point functions and four point out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs), we study the pole structure of thermal two-point functions in d-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) in

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Higher derivative invariants in four dimensional 𝒩 = 3 Poincaré supergravity

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
In this paper we use the superconformal approach to derive the higher derivative action for 𝒩 = 3 Poincaré supergravity in four space-time dimensions. We first study the coupling of 𝒩 = 3 vector multiplets to conformal supergravity. Thereafter we combine

Conformal vector fields and Yamabe solitons [PDF]

International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2019
In this paper, we use less topological restrictions and more geometric and analytic conditions to obtain some sufficient conditions on Yamabe solitons such that their metrics are Yamabe metrics, that is, metrics of constant scalar curvature. More precisely, we use properties of conformal vector fields to find several sufficient conditions on the ...

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Correlation functions of sourced gravitational waves in inflationary scalar vector models. A symmetry based approach

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We use conformal symmetry to constrain the shape of inflationary correlators in the presence of long-lived vector field perturbations. Applying conformal Ward identities, we derive general expressions, up to amplitudes and normalization factors, for the ...

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve
