In Vivo Microrheology Reveals Local Elastic and Plastic Responses Inside 3D Bacterial Biofilms
Bacterial biofilms are highly abundant 3D living materials capable of performing complex biomechanical and biochemical functions. A general method is developed to measure internal mechanical properties of biofilms in vivo with spatial resolution on the cellular scale, leading to the discovery that the elastic modulus inside biofilms correlates with the

Some inequalities for the Hersch–Pfluger distortion function
The authors obtain some new functional inequalities for the Hersch–Pfluger distortion function in the theory of plane quasiconformal mappings, thus solving some recent conjectures.

On distortion under mappings satisfying the inverse Poletsky inequality
As it is known, conformal mappings are locally Lipschitz at inner points of a domain, and quasiconformal (quasiregular) mappings are locally H ̈older continuous.

Quasiregular curves and cohomology
Abstract Let N$N$ be a closed, connected, and oriented Riemannian manifold, which admits a quasiregular ω$\omega$‐curve Rn→N$\mathbb {R}^n \rightarrow N$ with infinite energy. We prove that, if the de Rham class of ω$\omega$ is nonzero and a finite sum of nontrivial products, then there exists a nontrivial graded algebra homomorphism HdR∗(N)→⋀∗Rn$H_ ...

Octonionic Magical Supergravity, Niemeier Lattices, and Exceptional & Hilbert Modular Forms
Abstract The quantum degeneracies of Bogomolny‐Prasad‐Sommerfield (BPS) black holes of octonionic magical supergravity in five dimensions are studied. Quantum degeneracy is defined purely number theoretically as the number of distinct states in charge space with a given set of invariant labels.

On semilinear equations in the complex plane
We study the Dirichlet problem for the semilinear partial differential equations div (A∇u) = f (u) in simply connected domains D of the complex plane C with continuous boundary data. We prove the existence of the weak solutions u in the class C ∩Wloc1,2 (

Quasiconformal mappings, from Ptolemy's geography to the work of Teichmüller
The origin of quasiconformal mappings, like that of conformal mappings, can be traced back to old cartography where the basic problem was the search for mappings from the sphere onto the plane with minimal deviation from conformality, subject to certain ...

The Loewner–Kufarev energy and foliations by Weil–Petersson quasicircles
Abstract We study foliations by chord–arc Jordan curves of the twice punctured Riemann sphere C∖{0}$\mathbb {C} \setminus \lbrace 0\rbrace$ using the Loewner–Kufarev equation. We associate to such a foliation a function on the plane that describes the “local winding” along each leaf. Our main theorem is that this function has finite Dirichlet energy if

The approach to the modeling of nonlinear displacement processes (one and two-phase filtration) in heterogeneous oil deformable layers is developed, taking into account the inverse effect of the potential of the velocity field and the flow function on ...

Mappings of generalized finite distortion and continuity
Abstract We study continuity properties of Sobolev mappings f∈Wloc1,n(Ω,Rn)$f \in W_{\mathrm{loc}}^{1,n} (\Omega , \mathbb {R}^n)$, n⩾2$n \geqslant 2$, that satisfy the following generalized finite distortion inequality Df(x)n⩽K(x)Jf(x)+Σ(x)$$\begin{equation*} \hspace*{4.6pc}{\left| Df(x) \right|}^n \leqslant K(x) J_f(x) + \Sigma (x) \end{equation ...
