Confining strings in three-dimensional gauge theories beyond the Nambu-Gotō approximation by Michele Caselle, Nicodemo Magnoli, Alessandro Nada, Marco Panero, Dario Panfalone, Lorenzo Verzichelli

“…Abstract We carry out a systematic study of the effective bosonic string describing confining flux tubes in SU(N) Yang-Mills theories in three spacetime dimensions. While their low-energy properties are known to be universal and are described well by the Nambu-Gotō action, a non-trivial dependence on the gauge group is encoded in a series of undetermined subleading corrections in an expansion around the limit of an arbitrarily long string. …”

Gene syntaxes modulate gene expression and circuit behavior on plasmids by Yijie Deng, Hannah E. Maurais, Kai Etheridge, Rahul Sarpeshkar

“…Abstract Achieving consistent and predictable gene expression from plasmids remains challenging. While much attention has focused on intra-genetic elements like promoters and ribosomal binding sites, the spatial arrangement of genes within plasmids—referred to as gene syntax—also plays a crucial role in shaping gene expression dynamics. …”

Research on artificial intelligence-driven container relocation problem for green ports by Sisi Zheng, Jin Sha, Yinying Kong, Yougan Wang

“…IntroductionContainer relocation in port yards represents a canonical NP-hard problem, characterized by high-dimensional nonlinear constraints and stringent real-time decision-making requirements.MethodsThis study proposes a unified framework integrating an Intelligent Decision-Driven Model (IDDM), an Adaptive Data Generator (ADG), and an Optimization–Learning Closed-Loop Framework (OLCF).ResultsThe IDDM leverages heuristic search and machine learning within a multi-stage decision mechanism to mitigate the curse of dimensionality; in two-dimensional scenarios involving 50–100 containers, the model achieves an average response time of 9.83 ± 0.12 µs and reduces relocation operations by 61.68%. …”
