A Case of Severe Mitral Valve Regurgitation in a Patient with Leadless Pacemaker by Srikala R. Gumireddy, Minako Katayama, Hari P. Chaliki

“…His echocardiogram showed ejection fraction (EF) of 56%, no regional wall motion abnormalities, mild mitral and pulmonary regurgitation, and trivial tricuspid regurgitation. Despite this treatment, he had recurrent episodes of paroxysmal symptomatic atrial fibrillation with a rapid rate requiring multiple emergency department visits and hospital admissions. …”

Emergent interaction-induced topology in Bose-Hubbard ladders by David Wellnitz, Gustavo A. Domínguez-Castro, Thomas Bilitewski, Monika Aidelsburger, Ana Maria Rey, Luis Santos

“…., rungs with only one atom, can localize due to an emergent topological model, even though the underlying model in the absence of interactions admits only topologically trivial states. This emergent topological localization results from the formation of a zero-energy edge mode in an effective lattice formed by two adjacent chains with alternating strong and weak hoping links (Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chains) and opposite staggering which interface at the defect position. …”

Création de l’école régionale d’architecture de Toulouse : de l’art de bâtir à l’art du dessin (1903-1942) by Jean-Henri Fabre

“…Architectural training in Toulouse benefited from a pedagogy focused on the progressive acquisition of a professional competence, combining the refined art of composition and the trivial control of manufacturing. In Paris, on the other hand, assuming that one is or not born architect, the training was based on emulation, seeking to distinguish the best of a promotion rather than to ensure the professional competence of its students. …”

L’usure des oppositions islamistes au Maroc by Youssef Belal

Some examples of nontrivial homotopy groups of modules by C. Joanna Su

“…In this paper, we deliver and carry out the precise calculation of the first known nontrivial examples of absolute homotopy groups of modules, namely, π¯n(ℚ/ℤ,ℚ/ℤ),  π¯n(ℤ,ℚ/ℤ), and π¯n(ℤ,ℤ), where ℚ/ℤ and ℤ are regarded as ℤCk-modules with trivial action. One interesting phenomenon of the results is the periodicity of these homotopy groups, just as for the Ext groups.…”

Solving N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM BCFT matrix models at large N by Dongming He, Christoph F. Uhlemann

“…The boundaries typically introduce new degrees of freedom, through a reduction of the gauge symmetry on the boundary or as explicit boundary degrees of freedom, leading to non-trivial matrix models. We derive the saddle points dominating these matrix models at large N, expressed in terms of generalized Lambert W-functions. …”
