On diffeomorphism invariance for lattice theories

open access: yes, 1996
We consider the role of the diffeomorphism constraint in the quantization of lattice formulations of diffeomorphism invariant theories of connections.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Categorical generalization of BF theory coupled to gravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We present a thorough introduction to the tools of category theory required for formulating gauge theories based on 2-connections. We provide a detailed construction of the categorical generalization of BF theory, dubbed BFCG, also known as 2BF.

The Space of Connections as the Arena for (Quantum) Gravity

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2011
We review some properties of the space of connections as the natural arena for canonical (quantum) gravity, and compare to the case of the superspace of 3-metrics.

Discrete SL2 Connections and Self-Adjoint Difference Operators on the Triangulated 2-manifold

open access: yes, 2013
Discretization Program of the famous Completely Integrable Systems and associated Linear Operators was developed in 1990s. In particular, specific properties of the second order difference operators on the triangulated manifolds and equilateral triangle ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Studying emotion theories through connectivity analysis: Evidence from generalized psychophysiological interactions and graph theory [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2018
Psychological construction models of emotion state that emotions are variable concepts constructed by fundamental psychological processes, whereas according to basic emotion theory, emotions cannot be divided into more fundamental units and each basic emotion is represented by a unique and innate neural circuitry. In a previous study, we found evidence

Phase Transitions in Nonlinear Filtering

open access: yes, 2014
It has been established under very general conditions that the ergodic properties of Markov processes are inherited by their conditional distributions given partial information.
