Diversity and structural‐functional insights of alpha‐solenoid proteins

Protein Science, Volume 33, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract Alpha‐solenoids are a significant and diverse subset of structured tandem repeat proteins (STRPs) that are important in various domains of life. This review examines their structural and functional diversity and highlights their role in critical cellular processes such as signaling, apoptosis, and transcriptional regulation.

Total supply capability of electricity distribution networks considering flexible interconnection of low‐voltage service transformers

IET Smart Grid, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 386-399, August 2024.
The authors propose the total supply capability (TSC) of the low‐voltage flexible distribution network (LVFDN) for the first time. The influence mechanism for low‐voltage flexible interconnection on TSC is quantitatively analysed with a case study. Furthermore, suggestions for the planning and operation of LVFDN are given.

Asymmetric all‐pay auctions with spillovers

Theoretical Economics, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 169-206, January 2024.
When opposing parties compete for a prize, the sunk effort players exert during the conflict can affect the value of the winner's reward. These spillovers can have substantial influence on the equilibrium behavior of participants in applications such as lobbying, warfare, labor tournaments, marketing, and R&D races.

Meson distribution amplitudes in holographic models

, 2012
We study the wave functions of light and heavy mesons in both hard-wall (HW) and soft-wall (SW) holographic models which use AdS/CFT correspondence. In the case of massless constituents, the asymptotic behaviors of the electromagnetic form factor, the ...

The Dynamics of Instability

Theoretical Economics, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 365-405, January 2024.
We study a model in which two players with opposing interests try to alter a status quo through instability‐generating actions. We show that instability can be used to secure longer‐term durable changes, even if it is costly to generate and does not generate short‐term gains.

The causal relationship between patent growth and growth of GDP with quarterly data in the G7 countries: cointegration, ARDL and error correction models [PDF]

This empirical study investigates the dynamic link between patent growth and GDP growth in G7 economies. ARDL model showed that there exist positive relationship in long run between quarterly growth of patents and quarterly GDP growth.

Lepton flavor violation decays $\tau^-\to \mu^- P_1 P_2$ in the topcolor-assisted technicolor model and the littlest Higgs model with $T$ parity

, 2010
The new particles predicted by the topcolor-assisted technicolor ($TC2$) model and the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (called $LHT$ model) can induce the lepton flavor violation ($LFV$) couplings at tree level or one loop level, which might generate ...

Optimal sequential contests

Theoretical Economics, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 207-244, January 2024.
I study sequential contests where the efforts of earlier players may be disclosed to later players by nature or by design. The model has many applications, including rent seeking, R&D, oligopoly, public goods provision, and tragedy of the commons. I show that information about other players' efforts increases the total effort. Thus, the total effort is
