Equivariant perverse sheaves on Coxeter arrangements and buildings [PDF]
Épijournal de Géométrie Algébrique, 2019 When $W$ is a finite Coxeter group acting by its reflection representation on $E$, we describe the category ${\mathsf{Perv}}_W(E_{\mathbb C}, {\mathcal{H}}_{\mathbb C})$ of $W$-equivariant perverse sheaves on $E_{\mathbb C}$, smooth with respect to the ...

Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses and Xenotransplantation, 2021
Viruses, 2021 Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) are integrated in the genome of all pigs, and some of them are able to infect human cells. Therefore, PERVs pose a risk for xenotransplantation, the transplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organ to humans in ...

Genomic presence of recombinant porcine endogenous retrovirus in transmitting miniature swine
Virology Journal, 2006 The replication of porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) in human cell lines suggests a potential infectious risk in xenotransplantation. PERV isolated from human cells following cocultivation with porcine peripheral blood mononuclear cells is a ...

How Active Are Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses (PERVs)?
Viruses, 2016 Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) represent a risk factor if porcine cells, tissues, or organs were to be transplanted into human recipients to alleviate the shortage of human transplants; a procedure called xenotransplantation.
