Acylindrical hyperbolicity of groups acting on trees

open access: yes, 2015
We provide new examples of acylindrically hyperbolic groups arising from actions on simplicial trees. In particular, we consider amalgamated products and HNN-extensions, 1-relator groups, automorphism groups of polynomial algebras, 3-manifold groups and ...

Groups Acting on Trees

open access: yes, 2017
This chapter considers groups acting on trees. It examines which groups act on which spaces and, if a group does act on a space, what it says about the group. These spaces are called trees—that is, connected graphs without cycles.

On base sizes for symmetric groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A base of a permutation group G on a set is a subset B of such that the pointwise stabilizer of B in G is trivial. The base size of G, denoted by b(G), is the minimal cardinality of a base.

The equation x^py^q=z^r and groups that act freely on \Lambda-trees

open access: yes, 2009
Let $G$ be a finitely generated group that acts freely on a $\Lambda$-tree, where $\Lambda$ is an ordered abelian group, and let $x, y, z$ be elements in $G$.

Nucleation in tropical ecological restoration A nucleação na restauração ecológica de ecossistemas tropicais

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2010
Ecological theories of facilitation and nucleation are proposed as a basis for environmental restoration in tropical ecosystems. The main goal of this paper is to present restoration techniques based on the concept of nucleation, in which small nuclei of

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

A geometric proof of Stallings' Theorem on groups with more than one end

open access: yes, 2004
Stallings showed that a finitely generated group which has more than one end splits as an amalgamated free product or an HNN extension over a finite subgroup.

C*-simplicity of HNN extensions and groups acting on trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We study non-ascending HNN extensions acting on their Bass– Serre tree and characterize C*-simplicity and the unique trace property by means of the kernel and quasi-kernels of the HNN extension in question.

Identifying Significant Features in Cancer Methylation Data Using Gene Pathway Segmentation

open access: yesCancer Informatics, 2016
In order to provide the most effective therapy for cancer, it is important to be able to diagnose whether a patient's cancer will respond to a proposed treatment.
