Photonics of Topological Magnetic Textures

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Localized noncollinear magetic textures imprint their geometry and topology onto traversing photonic fields endowing them with orbital angular‐momentum, chirality, and magnetoelectric densities. Abstract Topological textures in magnetically ordered materials are an important case studies for fundamental research with promising applications in data ...

A Generalization of Kannan's Fixed Point Theorem

Fixed Point Theory and Applications, 2009
In order to observe the condition of Kannan mappings, we prove a generalization of Kannan's fixed point theorem. Our theorem involves constants and we obtain the best constants to ensure a fixed point.

Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A new mechanical model of a tendon‐actuated helical extension spring joint in surgical robots is built using Cosserat rod theory. The model can implicitly handle the unknown contacts between adjacent coils and numerically predict spring shapes from straight to significantly bent under actuation forces.

On a fixed point theorem of Greguš

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1986
We consider two selfmaps T and I of a closed convex subset C of a Banach space X which are weakly commuting in X, i.e.‖TIx−ITx‖≤‖Ix−Tx‖   for   any   x   in   X,and satisfy the inequality‖Tx−Ty‖≤a‖Ix−Iy‖+(1−a)max{‖Tx−Ix‖,‖Ty−Iy‖}for all x, y in C, where ...

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

A New Fixed Point Theorem and Applications

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
A new fixed point theorem is established under the setting of a generalized finitely continuous topological space (GFC-space) without the convexity structure. As applications, a weak KKM theorem and a minimax inequalities of Ky Fan type are also obtained

The equivariant Lefschetz fixed point theorem for proper cocompact G-manifolds

, 2001
Suppose one is given a discrete group G, a cocompact proper G-manifold M, and a G-self-map f of M. Then we introduce the equivariant Lefschetz class of f, which is globally defined in terms of cellular chain complexes, and the local equivariant Lefschetz

Designing High Performance Organic Donor Molecules for Photovoltaics

Advanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Systematically tuning the fusion pattern and length of the π$\pi$‐bridge, along with adjusting the electron‐withdrawing (EW) strength of the terminal groups in small‐molecule donor A-π-Core-π$\text{A-}\pi \text{-Core-}\pi$‐A architectures, enables predictable modulation of the system's opto‐electronic properties.

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...
