A PT-symmetric system can be realized in optics by creating a medium that has alternating regions of gain and loss, such that the (complex) index of refraction n(x) satisfies the condition n * (x ...

Searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) supporting conjunctive queries has garnered significant attention over the past decade due to its practicality and wide applicability. While extensive research ...

We introduce a systematic approach to the shape optimization of compact, single-aperture MIMO antennas. Because the characteristic modes of a radiator represent its complete set of possible responses ...

A novel type of nonlinear symmetry breaking in symmetric plasmonic oligomers is reported. By monitoring the strength of the second-harmonic signal while changing the polarization angle of the pump, we ...

Thus, small-molecule modulations of these well-described pathways are underway and represent a promising direction for therapeutic applications for cardiac hypertrophy and failure. 149,150 Inhibitors ...

As the cell width increases, interface fluctuations, symmetry breaking, and asynchronous nucleation become increasingly prominent. Credit: Advanced Science (2025). DOI: 10.1002/advs.202503807 ...
