Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Ends of groups: a nonstandard perspective

open access: yes, 2010
We give a nonstandard treatment of the notion of ends of proper geodesic metric spaces. We then apply this nonstandard treatment to Cayley graphs of finitely generated groups and give nonstandard proofs of many of the fundamental results concerning ends ...

Games Between Players With Dual‐Selves

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 329-351, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Human decision making often seems to be determined by the resolution of intrapersonal conflict. This paper conceptualizes the analysis of decisions governed by such dual‐self processes in individual decision contexts and strategic interactions.

Nonstandard limit theorem for infinite variance functionals

open access: yes, 2008
We consider functionals of long-range dependent Gaussian sequences with infinite variance and obtain nonstandard limit theorems. When the long-range dependence is strong enough, the limit is a Hermite process, while for weaker long-range dependence, the ...

Ultrafast Adhesion/Friction Bidirectionally Switchable Control by Vibration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 8, 26 January 2026.
Bioinspired gradient smooth architectures enable vibration‐switchable adhesion/friction with 62.02 kPa adhesion strength, 131.57 kPa shear strength, tilt angles ≥ 3°, roughness ≥ Ra 0.8 µm, 400 Hz antivibration robustness, and dual‐mode control. The synergy of geometry optimization and vibration modulation tuning bridges multidomain adaptability and ...

k-defects as compactons

open access: yes, 2009
We argue that topological compactons (solitons with compact support) may be quite common objects if $k$-fields, i.e., fields with nonstandard kinetic term, are considered, by showing that even for models with well-behaved potentials the unusual kinetic ...

Nonstandard topology on function spaces with applications to hyperspaces [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1993
In this paper the techniques of Nonstandard Analysis are used to study topologies on the set of all continuous functions. We obtain nonstandard characterizations for conjoining and splitting topologies and we give a complete description of the monads of the compact-open topology which leads to very elegant and simple proofs of some important results ...

Molecular Simulations of Polymer‐based Drug Nanocarriers: From Physical and Structural Properties to Controlled Release

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 4, 26 January 2026.
Polymer‐based drug delivery systems can effectively overcome the limitations of free drugs in terms of solubility, stability, and plasma half‐life, yet their development has traditionally relied on time‐consuming trial‐and‐error approaches. This review highlights recent advances in applying molecular simulation to the design of polymer‐based drug ...

Revival of Layered Ferroelectrics in Thin Films

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.
This review presents recent advances in layered perovskite‐based ferroelectric thin films, showing how progress in deposition and characterization now enables atomic‐precision synthesis across the Aurivillius, Carpy–Galy, Ruddlesden–Popper, and Dion–Jacobson families.

Nonstandard and standard compactifications of ordered topological spaces

open access: yesTopology and its Applications, 1992
In the present paper, the main objects of study are the ordered topological spaces of \textit{L. Nachbin} [Topology and order (1965; Zbl 0131.379)]. Such a space is one with a distinguished partial ordering whose graph is closed in the Cartesian square of the space, and automatically satisfies the Hausdorff axiom.
