Locking Metastable Topological Domains in Nematic Liquid Crystal Pi Cells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Selective photopolymerization in the presence of a controlled voltage defines permanent director walls that lock‐in metastable bend and twist configurations within nematic liquid crystal Pi cells. Q‐tensor simulations corroborate the experiments, demonstrating the topological state stabilization.

A convexity property of expectations under exponential weights [PDF]
, 2007 Take a random variable X with some finite exponential moments. Define an exponentially weighted expectation by E^t(f) = E(e^{tX}f)/E(e^{tX}) for admissible values of the parameter t.

Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 1983 AbstractIn this paper we study uniformly convex functions and uniformly convex functions at a point, giving some properties and characterizations of them. Further, we give some examples and applications of these types of functions.

Modulus of convexity for operator convex functions [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2014 Given an operator convex function f(x), we obtain an operator-valued lower bound for cf(x) + (1 − c)f(y) − f(cx + (1 − c)y), c ∈ [0, 1]. The lower bound is expressed in terms of the matrix Bregman divergence. A similar inequality is shown to be false for functions that are convex but not operator convex.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shields consisting of polylactic acid (PLA) in layers with different concentrations of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are produced using additive manufacturing. The permittivity function of layers with different filler concentrations is learned using data of homogeneous and randomly ordered shields.

Asynchronous Convex Consensus in the Presence of Crash Faults [PDF]
, 2015 This paper defines a new consensus problem, convex consensus. Similar to vector consensus [13, 20, 19], the input at each process is a d-dimensional vector of reals (or, equivalently, a point in the d-dimensional Euclidean space).

On the definition of a close-to-convex function
, 1978 The standard definition of a close-to-convex function involves a complex numerical factor eiβ which is on occasion erroneously replaced by 1. While it is known to experts in the field that this replacement cannot be made without essentially changing the ...

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2014 The paper provides the characteristic properties of half convex functions. The analytic and geometric image of half convex functions is presented using convex combinations and support lines. The results relating to convex combinations are applied to quasi-arithmetic means.
