From Planar to 3D Nanophotonic Lenses: Advancing Design, Fabrication, and Applications
Three‐dimensional nanophotonic lenses are enabled by an integrated workflow that links design parameterization, full‐wave electromagnetic simulation, computational optimization, and freeform fabrication. This Review summarizes how these tools expand optical design freedom beyond a single patterned plane by enriching the local meta‐atom response and ...

ABSTRACT Purpose Ultra‐high field (≥ 7 T) and 3 T MRI suffer from B1+ inhomogeneity and signal loss. Conventional metasurfaces that mitigate B1+ inhomogeneity and improve image SNR are “fixed” in nature and designed for a single Larmor frequency. This study demonstrates the feasibility of an adaptive metasurface utilizing voltage‐controlled capacitors ...

Allocation of Indivisible Items With a Common Preference Graph: Minimizing Total Dissatisfaction
ABSTRACT Allocating indivisible items among a set of agents is a frequently studied discrete optimization problem. In the setting considered in this work, the agents' preferences over the items are assumed to be identical. We consider a very recent measure for the overall quality of an allocation which does not rely on numerical valuations of the items.

On the Complexity of the Paper Selection Problem for the Italian Research Quality Evaluation (VQR)
ABSTRACT This work addresses the paper selection problem that each Italian university and department faced in the context of the research quality evaluation (VQR) of the Italian university system for the period 2020–2024. Given the set of researchers of a university and their associated papers, the problem consists of selecting a fixed number of ...

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...
