Discrete flavour symmetries, neutrino mixing and leptonic CP violation [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal C, 2017
The current status of our knowledge of the 3-neutrino mixing parameters and of the CP violation in the lepton sector is summarised. The non-Abelian discrete symmetry approach to understanding the observed pattern of neutrino mixing and the related ...

Patterns of remnant discrete symmetries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We analyze patterns of remnant discrete symmetries that arise from U(1) N theories by spontaneous breaking. We describe a simple, geometrical way to understand these patterns and provide methods for identifying the discrete symmetries and bringing them ...

Discrete symmetries of Dirac’s theory in the de Sitter manifold

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
The discrete symmetries of Dirac’s free field on the de Sitter manifold are studied, taking into account that this has two portions that can play the role of physical space-times, namely an expanding and a collapsing universe.

Breaking discrete symmetries in the effective field theory of inflation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We study the phenomenon of discrete symmetry breaking during the inflationary epoch, using a model-independent approach based on the effective field theory of inflation.

Green-Schwarz automorphisms and 6D SCFTs

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
All known interacting 6D superconformal field theories (SCFTs) have a tensor branch which includes anti-chiral two-forms and a corresponding lattice of string charges.

Modular symmetry and non-Abelian discrete flavor symmetries in string compactification [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2018
We study the modular symmetry in magnetized D-brane models on $T^2$. Non-Abelian flavor symmetry $D_4$ in the model with magnetic flux $M=2$ (in a certain unit) is a subgroup of the modular symmetry.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Non-Abelian Discrete Symmetries in Particle Physics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We review pedagogically non-Abelian discrete groups, which play an important role in the particle physics. We show group-theoretical aspects for many concrete groups, such as representations, their tensor products.

Soft motions encoded by the fold and mediated by conserved hinge sites drive V‐ATPase allosteric machinery and autoinhibition

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.
