Red Blood Cell Membrane Mechanics Using Discrete Exterior Calculus (DEC) and Optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 4, April 2026.
We present a novel DEC approach for calculating RBC shapes applicable to other cell types and membrane problems. We derive an energy minimization equation that can be solved semi‐implicitly, and a Lie derivative method to control node spacing. This novel work should aid computational modeling in many biological situations.

Integrating Experimental Imaging and (Quantum‐Deformation)‐Curvature Dynamics in Bleb Morphogenesis

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
We propose a (q,τ)$$ \left(q,\tau \right) $$‐fractional geometric flow model for cell blebbing that incorporates hereditary memory and viscoelastic effects in curvature‐driven membrane dynamics. Image‐based measurements of bleb geometry are coupled with fractional evolution equations and validated numerically.

A Force‐Based Identification Scheme for Constitutive Parameters Regularized by Admissible Elemental Internal Forces

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
The “E‐FEMU‐F loss” as a function of full‐field displacements, constitutive parameters, and “Admissible Elemental Internal Forces” (AEIFs). AEIFs are constructed from measured (integrated) external forces and optimized analytically, while constitutive parameters are inferred numerically to minimize the E‐FEMU‐F loss.

Monolithic Silicon‐Photonics Sign‐Sign Dot‐Product Circuits Toward Artificial Intelligence and Multiple‐Input Multiple‐Output Accelerators

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 8, 24 April 2026.
This research leverages advanced monolithic silicon‐photonics integrated‐circuit manufacturing technology with strategic electrical‐to‐optical signal conversions, differential intensity‐modulation technique, and dual rail‐to‐rail photodetection architecture to realize an on‐chip photonic‐electronic sign‐sign dot‐product accelerator achieving 8.92‐Gb/s ...

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Swampland: The Cosmologist's Handbook to the String‐Theoretical Swampland Programme

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

Tessellation Groups, Harmonic Analysis on Non‐Compact Symmetric Spaces and the Heat Kernel in View of Cartan Convolutional Neural networks

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we continue the development of the Cartan neural networks programme, launched with three previous publications, by focusing on some mathematical foundational aspects that we deem necessary for our next steps forward. The mathematical and conceptual results are diverse and span various mathematical fields, but the inspiring ...

Efficient Gaussian Simulations of Fermionic Open Quantum Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Quantum Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
Building upon Bravyi's fundamental theoretical framework, efficient classical simulation methods are reviewed and further developed for general fermionic Gaussian processes. The emphasis remains on a unified approach applicable to generic fermionic Gaussian operations.

Testing Hypotheses of Covariate Effects on Topics of Discourse

open access: yesStatistical Analysis and Data Mining: An ASA Data Science Journal, Volume 19, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We introduce an approach to topic modeling with document‐level covariates that remains tractable in the face of large text corpora. This is achieved by de‐emphasizing the role of parameter estimation in an underlying probabilistic model, assuming instead that the data come from a fixed but unknown distribution whose statistical functionals are

Rapid Fault Leakage Modelling for CO2 Storage in Saline Aquifers

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Simulating the fluid flow along fault zones at different scales is essential for predicting the CO2 leakage and containment during injection and storage. However, this can be challenging, especially in the early stages of a storage project when knowledge of the reservoir and caprock is limited and the cost of obtaining the relevant data is ...

Integration of Physics‐Constrained Learning With Adversarial Autoencoders for Simultaneous Inference of Hydraulic Conductivity and Contaminant Sources

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Determining heterogeneous conductivity fields and reconstructing contaminant release histories in subsurface remediation often lead to a high‐dimensional inverse problem. To tackle this issue, researchers typically integrate model outputs with sparse and noisy measurements of hydraulic head and concentration.
