Fourth Order Algorithms for Solving the Multivariable Langevin Equation and the Kramers Equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We develop a fourth order simulation algorithm for solving the stochastic Langevin equation. The method consists of identifying solvable operators in the Fokker-Planck equation, factorizing the evolution operator for small time steps to fourth order and ...

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Thermodynamic and classical instability of AdS black holes in fourth-order gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study thermodynamic and classical instability of AdS black holes in fourth-order gravity. These include the BTZ black hole in new massive gravity, Schwarzschild-AdS black hole, and higher-dimensional AdS black holes in fourth-order gravity.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

A Fourth-order Finite Difference Solver For Poisson's Equation Via The Half-sweep Arithmetic Mean (Hsam) Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The main purpose ofthis paper is to validate the efficiency and accuracyof the Half-Sweep Arithmetic Mean (HSAM) method using the fourth orderfinite difference approximation equation to solve one-dimensionalPoisson's equation. In this paper, we formulate

Fourth-order gravity as the inflationary model revisited

open access: yes, 2010
We revisit the old (fourth-order or quadratically generated) gravity model of Starobinsky in four space-time dimensions, and derive the (inflaton) scalar potential in the equivalent scalar-tensor gravity model via a Legendre-Weyl transform.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Fourth-order Schr\"odinger type operator with singular potentials

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we study the biharmonic operator perturbed by an inverse fourth-order potential. In particular, we consider the operator $A=\Delta^2-V=\Delta^2-c|x|^{-4}$ where $c$ is any constant such that ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
