A Bio‐Based Chiroptical Overcrowded Alkene From Flavanone: Photoreactivity and Theoretical Investigation

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A sustainable route to photoresponsive molecular systems is achieved using the bio‐based flavanone (‐)‐isolonchocarpin from Tephrosia vogelii. Through McMurry homocoupling and light‐driven 6‐π‐electrocyclization, an overcrowded alkene and a fluorescent O‐heterocyclic phenanthrene are synthesized.

Nonsmooth convex-concave saddle point problems with cardinality penalties [PDF]

In this paper, we focus on a class of convexly constrained nonsmooth convex-concave saddle point problems with cardinality penalties. Although such nonsmooth nonconvex-nonconcave and discontinuous min-max problems may not have a saddle point, we show ...

Box–Behnken optimization and ANN‐ANFIS integrated modelling for transesterification using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

Three-dimensional higher-order saddle-point-induced flatbands in Co-based kagome metals

Physical Review Research
The saddle point (Van Hove singularity) exhibits a divergent density of states in two-dimensional systems, leading to fascinating phenomena such as strong correlations and unconventional superconductivity, yet it is seldom observed in three-dimensional ...

A Geometric Characterization of Steady Laminar Flow

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the steady states of the Euler equations on the periodic channel or annulus. We show that if these flows are laminar (layered by closed non‐contractible streamlines which foliate the domain), then they must be either parallel or circular flows.

Stochastic Gradient Descent in High Dimensions for Multi‐Spiked Tensor PCA

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the high‐dimensional dynamics of online stochastic gradient descent (SGD) for the multi‐spiked tensor model. This multi‐index model arises from the tensor principal component analysis (PCA) problem with multiple spikes, where the goal is to estimate the unknown signal vectors within the N$N$‐dimensional unit sphere through maximum ...

Exponentially‐constrained Gaussian mixture model for quantifying vertical development of water‐conducting fracture zones in lithologically stratified mining roofs

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes an exponentially‐constrained Gaussian mixture model (EcGMM) to quantify vertical fracture heterogeneity in stratified roof strata. The model integrates a piecewise exponential decay term capturing global stress dissipation with Gaussian components representing localized fracture intensification at lithological interfaces.
