Main-Group Metal Elements as Promising Active Centers for Single-Atom Catalysts [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Current research efforts on single-atom catalysts (SACs) exclusively focus on nonmetal or transition-metal atoms as active centers, while employing main-group metal elements is seemingly excluded because their delocalized s/p-bands are prone to yield a broadened resonance for the interaction with adsorbates.

Accelerating the theoretical study of Li-polysulphide adsorption on single-atom catalysts via machine learning approaches [PDF]
, 2021 Unlocking the design of Li-S batteries where no shuttle effects appears, and thus their energy storage capacity does not diminish over time, would enable the manufacturing of energy storage devices more performant than the current Li-ion commercial ones.

Successive Approximation Coding for Distributed Matrix Multiplication [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Coded distributed computing was recently introduced to mitigate the effect of stragglers on distributed computing. This paper combines ideas of approximate computing with coded computing to further accelerate computation. We propose successive approximation coding (SAC) techniques that realize a tradeoff between accuracy and speed, allowing the ...
