In this note we will introduce a class of search problems, called nested Polynomial Local Search (nPLS) problems, and show that definable NP search problems, i.e., $ ^b_1$-definable functions in $T^2_2$ are characterized in terms of the nested PLS.

Rewriting nested XML queries using nested views [PDF]
We present and analyze an algorithm for equivalent rewriting of XQuery queries using XQuery views, which is complete for a large class of XQueries featuring nested FLWR blocks, XML construction and join equalities by value and identity. These features pose significant challenges which lead to fundamental extension of prior work on the problems of ...

'Should conditionals be emergent ...': asyndetic conditionals in English and German as a Challenge to Grammaticalization Research [PDF]
The present article examines asyndetic or conjunctionless conditionals in German and English. According to Jespersen’s Model (1940), this construction arose diachronically from a paratactic discourse sequence with a polar interrogative, but more recently

Adaptive latitudinal variation in Common Blackbird Turdus merula nest characteristics [PDF]
Nest construction is taxonomically widespread, yet our understanding of adaptive intraspecific variation in nest design remains poor. Nest characteristics are expected to vary adaptively in response to predictable variation in spring temperatures over

Probing paper ageing by label-free fluorescence lifetime microscopy
Paper ageing is a complex and irreversible process that critically affects materials ranging from packaging to cultural heritage artefacts. While both invasive and non-invasive analytical techniques exist to assess the deterioration of paper, many ...

This study explores salivary RNA for breast cancer (BC) diagnosis, prognosis, and follow‐up. High‐throughput RNA sequencing identified distinct salivary RNA signatures, including novel transcripts, that differentiate BC from healthy controls, characterize histological and molecular subtypes, and indicate lymph node involvement.

It is widely accepted that the pH of insulin granules is acidic, and that its active regulation during granule maturation plays a role in the process of insulin secretion by β-cells. Yet, a calibrated measurement of the absolute granule pH with organelle

Modeling hepatic fibrosis in TP53 knockout iPSC‐derived human liver organoids
This study developed iPSC‐derived human liver organoids with TP53 gene knockout to model human liver fibrosis. These organoids showed elevated myofibroblast activation, early disease markers, and advanced fibrotic hallmarks. The use of profibrotic differentiation medium further amplified the fibrotic signature seen in the organoids.
