Event-based spatiotemporal networks for modelling emergent phenomena in complex systems

Matthijs Romeijnders, Michiel van Boven, Francesco Corman +3

Complex systems display emergent phenomena that vary significantly across spatial and temporal scales. These variations originate from fine-grained system processes, yet arriving a…

Mumford-type Shimura curves contained in the Torelli locus

Thomas Bouchet, Jeroen Hanselman, Andreas Pieper +1

In this article we give explicit equations for two Shimura families of genus 4 curves whose Jacobians are abelian fourfolds of Mumford type. These are the first explicit examples o…

Elasticity and plasticity of epithelial gap closure

Maryam Setoudeh, Pierre A. Haas

Epiboly, during which a tissue closes around the surface of the egg, pervades animal development. This epithelial gap closure involves cell intercalations at the edge of the gap. H…

Control of lumen morphology by lateral and basal cell surfaces

Chandraniva Guha Ray, Markus Mukenhirn, Alf Honigmann +1

Across development, the morphology of fluid-filled lumina enclosed by epithelial tissues arises from an interplay of lumen pressure, mechanics of the cell cortex, and cell-cell adh…

Probabilistic algorithm for computing all local minimizers of Morse functions on a compact domain

Mohab Safey El Din, Georgy Scholten, Emmanuel Trélat

Let K be the unit-cube in Rn and f\,: K R^n be a Morse function. We assume that the function f is given by an evaluation program in the noisy model, i.e., the eva…

Mesoscale properties of protein clusters determine the size and nature of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS)

Gonen Golani, Manas Seal, Mrityunjoy Kar +3

The observation of Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) in biological cells has dramatically shifted the paradigm that soluble proteins are uniformly dispersed in the cytoplasm or…

Spiking Neural Models for Decision-Making Tasks with Learning

Sophie Jaffard, Giulia Mezzadri, Patricia Reynaud-Bouret +1

In cognition, response times and choices in decision-making tasks are commonly modeled using Drift Diffusion Models (DDMs), which describe the accumulation of evidence for a decisi…

Measurements of molecular size and shape on a chip

Xin Zhu, Timothy JD Bennett, Konstantin C Zouboulis +6

Size and shape are critical discriminators between molecular species and states. We describe a micro-chip based high-throughput imaging approach offering rapid and precise determin…

Geometry of T1 transitions in epithelia

Pierre A. Haas

The flows of tissues of epithelial cells often involve T1 transitions. These neighbour exchanges are irreversible rearrangements crossing an energy barrier. Here, by an exact geome…

Euler buckling on curved surfaces

Shiheng Zhao, Pierre A. Haas

Euler buckling epitomises mechanical instabilities: An inextensible straight elastic line buckles under compression when the compressive force reaches a critical value .…

A model for boundary-driven tissue morphogenesis

Daniel S. Alber, Shiheng Zhao, Alexandre O. Jacinto +3

Tissue deformations during morphogenesis can be active, driven by internal processes, or passive, resulting from stresses applied at their boundaries. Here, we introduce the Drosop…

(Un)buckling mechanics of epithelial monolayers under compression

Chandraniva Guha Ray, Pierre A. Haas

When cell sheets fold during development, their apical or basal surfaces constrict and cell shapes approach the geometric singularity in which these surfaces vanish. Here, we revea…

Mechanics of poking a cyst

Shiheng Zhao, Pierre A. Haas

Indentation tests are classical tools to determine material properties. For biological samples such as cysts of cells, however, the observed force-displacement relation cannot be e…

Buckling by disordered growth

Rahul G. Ramachandran, Ricard Alert, Pierre A. Haas

Buckling instabilities driven by tissue growth underpin key developmental events such as the folding of the brain. Tissue growth is disordered due to cell-to-cell variability, but…

Characterising transport in a quantum gas by measuring Drude weights

Philipp Schüttelkopf, Mohammadamin Tajik, Nataliia Bazhan +4

Transport properties play a crucial role in defining materials as insulators, metals, or superconductors. A fundamental parameter in this regard is the Drude weight, which quantify…

Cell divisions imprint long lasting elastic strain fields in epithelial tissues

Ali Tahaei, Romina Pisticello-Gómez, S Suganthan +4

A hallmark of biological tissues, viewed as complex cellular materials, is the active generation of mechanical stresses by cellular processes, such as cell divisions. Each cellular…

Cut it out: Out-of-plane stresses in cell sheet folding of Volvox embryos

Pierre A. Haas, Stephanie S. M. H. Höhn

The folding of cellular monolayers pervades embryonic development and disease. It results from stresses out of the plane of the tissue, often caused by cell shape changes including…
