Tuning Amorphous‐Crystalline Catalytic Interfaces by Mechanochemistry: Cu‐Based Metallic Glasses Coupled with Ceria for CO Oxidation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ball‐milling Cu‐based metallic glasses with ceria creates a unique nanostructure where metallic glass particles are wrapped by CeO2 nanoparticles. The intimate integration triggers copper state reorganization during reaction and aging, boosting CO oxidation and COPrOx activity.

Parameterized algorithms for block-structured integer programs with large entries [PDF]

TheoretiCS
We study two classic variants of block-structured integer programming. Two-stage stochastic programs are integer programs of the form $\{A_i \mathbf{x} + D_i \mathbf{y}_i = \mathbf{b}_i\textrm{ for all }i=1,\ldots,n\}$, where $A_i$ and $D_i$ are bounded ...

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Unit Interval Editing is Fixed-Parameter Tractable [PDF]

Information and Computation, 2015
Given a graph~$G$ and integers $k_1$, $k_2$, and~$k_3$, the unit interval editing problem asks whether $G$ can be transformed into a unit interval graph by at most $k_1$ vertex deletions, $k_2$ edge deletions, and $k_3$ edge additions. We give an algorithm solving this problem in time $2^{O(k\log k)}\cdot (n+m)$, where $k := k_1 + k_2 + k_3$, and $n, m$

Trions as Fundamental Species in Chemically Doped Polymer Semiconductors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work shows that exciton–charge carrier coupling in doped polymer semiconductors gives rise to multi‐particle states, including trions—quasiparticles consisting of two holes and one electron under p‐doping—and bound exciton‐hole pairs, as identified through spectroscopic and theoretical analysis.

Exploiting bounded signal flow for graph orientation based on cause-effect pairs

Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2011
Background We consider the following problem: Given an undirected network and a set of sender-receiver pairs, direct all edges such that the maximum number of "signal flows" defined by the pairs can be routed respecting edge directions.

Hitting long directed cycles is fixed-parameter tractable

CoRR, 2020
In the Directed Long Cycle Hitting Set} problem we are given a directed graph $G$, and the task is to find a set $S$ of at most $k$ vertices/arcs such that $G-S$ has no cycle of length longer than $\ell$. We show that the problem can be solved in time $2^{\mathcal O(\ell k^3\log k + k^5\log k\log\ell)}\cdot n^{\mathcal O(1)}$, that is, it is fixed ...

Resolving Heterogeneity of Targeted Lipid Nanoparticles Through Solution‐Based Biophysical Analyses

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
AF4‐UV‐DLS‐MALS‐SAXS resolves previously inaccessible targeted lipid nanoparticle (tLNP) subpopulations that differ in size, shape, and composition. Correlation of subpopulation‐resolved biophysical properties with in vivo RNA delivery reveals that targeted placental transfection is associated with distinct tLNP subpopulations rather than ensemble ...

Fixed-Parameter Algorithms for Computing Bend-Restricted RAC Drawings of Graphs

Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications
In a right-angle crossing (RAC) drawing of a graph, each edge is represented as a polyline and edge crossings must occur at an angle of exactly $90^\circ$, where the number of bends on such polylines is typically restricted in some way.
