Downward nominal and real wage rigidity : Survey evidence from European firms [PDF]
It has been well established that the wages of individual workers react little, especially downwards, to shocks that hit their employer. This paper presents new evidence from a unique survey of firms across Europe on the prevalence of downward wage ...

Some aspects of the stic system stability calculation [PDF]
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2009 The problem presented in this paper has been treated intensively by various researchers. However, considering that by its nature the problem of structure stability belongs to the area of nonlinear analysis, it represents an inexhaustible source for ...

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Matrix rigidity and the Croot-Lev-Pach lemma
Theory Comput., 2017 Matrix rigidity is a notion put forth by Valiant as a means for proving arithmetic circuit lower bounds. A matrix is rigid if it is far, in Hamming distance, from any low rank matrix. Despite decades of efforts, no explicit matrix rigid enough to carry out Valiant's plan has been found.

Hierarchical Orthogonal Matrix Generation and Matrix-Vector Multiplications in Rigid Body Simulations [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2018 In this paper, we apply the hierarchical modeling technique and study some numerical linear algebra problems arising from the Brownian dynamics simulations of biomolecular systems where molecules are modeled as ensembles of rigid bodies. Given a rigid body $p$ consisting of $n$ beads, the $6 \times 3n$ transformation matrix $Z$ that maps the force on ...

Elucidating the Role of Matrix Porosity and Rigidity in Glioblastoma Type IV Progression
Applied Sciences, 2020 The highly infiltrating nature of glioma cells is the major cause for the poor prognosis of brain malignancies. Motility, proliferation, and gene expression of cells in natural and synthetic gels have been analyzed by several authors, yet quantitative ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Recent Progress on Matrix Rigidity -- A Survey
CoRR, 2020 The concept of matrix rigidity was introduced by Valiant(independently by Grigoriev) in the context of computing linear transformations. A matrix is rigid if it is far(in terms of Hamming distance) from any matrix of low rank. Although we know rigid matrices exist, obtaining explicit constructions of rigid matrices have remained a long-standing open ...
