On Hawking mass and Bartnik mass of CMC surfaces
Given a constant mean curvature surface that bounds a compact manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature, we obtain intrinsic conditions on the surface that guarantee the positivity of its Hawking mass.

Scalar Curvature via Local Extent
We give a metric characterization of the scalar curvature of a smooth Riemannian manifold, analyzing the maximal distance between (n + 1) points in infinitesimally small neighborhoods of a point.

Volume comparison with respect to scalar curvature [PDF]
In this article, we investigate the volume comparison with respect to scalar curvature. In particular, we show volume comparison hold for small geodesic balls of metrics near $V$-static metrics.

Certain aspects of regularity in scalar field cosmological dynamics
We consider dynamics of the FRW Universe with a scalar field. Using Maupertuis principle we find a curvature of geodesics flow and show that zones of positive curvature exist for all considered types of scalar field potential.

A Dozen Problems, Questions and Conjectures About Positive Scalar Curvature [PDF]
Unlike manifolds with positive sectional and with positive Ricci curvatures which aggregate to modest (roughly) convex islands in the vastness of all Riemannian spaces, the domain \(\{\mathcal{SC}>0\}\) of manifolds with positive scalar curvatures ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Thermodynamic Geometry and Phase Transitions in Kerr-Newman-AdS Black Holes
We investigate phase transitions and critical phenomena in Kerr-Newman-Anti de Sitter black holes in the framework of the geometry of their equilibrium thermodynamic state space. The scalar curvature of these state space Riemannian geometries is computed

Isoperimetry, Scalar Curvature, and Mass in Asymptotically Flat Riemannian 3‐Manifolds [PDF]
Let (M, g) be an asymptotically flat Riemannian 3‐manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature and positive mass. We show that each leaf of the canonical foliation of the end of (M, g) through stable constant mean curvature spheres encloses more volume ...

The anabolic steroid stanozolol is a potent inhibitor of human MutT homolog 1
MutT homolog 1 (MTH1) is a member of the NUDIX superfamily of enzymes and is an anticancer drug target. We show that stanozolol (Stz), an anabolic steroid, is an unexpected nanomolar inhibitor of MTH1. The X‐ray crystal structure of the human MTH1–Stz complex reveals a unique binding scaffold that could be utilized for future inhibitor development ...

Enlargeable metrics on nonspin manifolds
We show that an enlargeable Riemannian metric on a (possibly nonspin) manifold cannot have uniformly positive scalar curvature. This extends a well-known result of Gromov and Lawson to the nonspin setting.
