Sparse Vertex Cutsets and the Maximum Degree

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics
We show that every graph $G$ of maximum degree $\Delta$ and sufficiently large order has a vertex cutset $S$ of order at most $\Delta$ that induces a subgraph $G[S]$ of maximum degree at most $\Delta-3$. For $\Delta\in \{ 4,5\}$, we refine this result by considering also the average degree of $G[S]$.

Autonomous Folding of Soft Matter From Living Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Origami structures are endowed with “living” polymer creases that grow, remodel, and stiffen in response to nutrient solutions. This post‐fabrication growth enables autonomous folding, iterative regrowth, and mechanical tuning involving origami assemblies, such as cranes, Miura‐ori tessellations, rigid and non‐rigid square‐twist patterns, establishing ...

Reformulated First Zagreb Index of Some Graph Operations

open access: yesMathematics, 2015
The reformulated Zagreb indices of a graph are obtained from the classical Zagreb indices by replacing vertex degrees with edge degrees, where the degree of an edge is taken as the sum of degrees of the end vertices of the edge minus 2. In this paper, we

Bioinspired Adaptive Surfaces for Intelligent Liquid Manipulation: Progressing From Passive and Active to Hybrid Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines passive, active, and hybrid liquid manipulation strategies, highlighting hybrid approaches as an emerging route to reconcile energy efficiency with adaptive control. By actively reconstructing passive surfaces to store programmable interfacial energy, hybrid systems enable flexible yet low‐power liquid transport, with perspectives ...

Elastomeric 3D‐Printed Microenvironments Enable Nanonewton Force Measurements in Healthy and Diseased Human Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Neuroepithelial Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present elastomeric three‐dimensional (3D) microstructures fabricated via two‐photon polymerization (2PP) and post‐processed through wet etching, for quantifying nanonewton (nN)‐scale forces applied by healthy and diseased neural cells. The mechanically characterized free‐standing beam architectures enable measurement of traction forces of ...

On the minimum reformulated Albertson Index of fixed-order trees and unicyclic graphs with a given maximum degree

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics
The Albertson index [Formula: see text], traditionally based on vertex degrees, is defined as the sum of the absolute value of the differences in degrees between adjacent vertices.

Tailoring Iron Nanostructures on MoS2: The Pivotal Role of Sulfur Vacancies in Growth Morphology and Charge Transfer

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The deposition of Iron on pristine MoS2/Au(111) monolayers produces nanoparticles that donate charge to the support, generating Fe+2‐interfacial species. On the contrary, on defect‐engineered MoS2, sulfur vacancies trap sub‐nanometric Fe clusters and host two excess electrons that redistribute locally, suppressing Fe oxidation without formal Mo ...

Structural and Dynamic Properties of Lipid‐Coated Gold Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations reveal how lipid chemistry governs the behavior of coatings on the surface of a gold nanoparticle. Variations in headgroup charge and acyl‐chain saturation produce distinct monolayer‐like lipid organization, ranging from compact, ordered coatings to extended, dynamic shells. These findings establish a foundation
