Differential Equations & Applications, 2022 Summary: In this article we introduce the so called \(p\)-deformed algebra \(\mathcal{V}\). The notion of \(p\)-deformation is connected to the well-known \(q\)-deformation by the simple relation \(p = \frac{q^2+q^{-2}}{2}\). Thus the \(p\)-deformed algebra \(\mathcal{V}\) will have representations in terms of \(q\)-difference operators.

Identifying Patterns of Hospitalizations Among Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Population‐Based Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) experience more hospitalizations than the general population. We aimed to identify distinct hospitalization patterns among Queensland CCSs and the associated characteristics. Methods Cases (aged ≤14 years) diagnosed between 1995 and 2019 while residents of Queensland were identified through the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...
