Recently, the paper Limit Set of Branching Random Walks on Hyperbolic Groups, which was co-authored by Associate Professor Wang Longmin from the School of Statistics and Data Science of Nankai University, was published online in the world-renowned mathematical journal Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics.Some statistical physics models on non-compliant graphs often have a weak survival phase. For example, when, in the case of branching random walks, the branching rate is within a certa
Lithium niobate (LiNbO3, LN) is a versatile ferroelectric crystal that has the electrooptical, acousto-optic, piezoelectric, pyroelectric and nonlinear optical effects. It plays a prominent role in the latest technological achievements in nonlinear resonators, modulators, permanent holographic recording devices and on-chip integrated optics. LN crystal, a classical inorganic photorefractive material, has stable physical and chemical properties, but it is difficult to achieve fast dynamic refresh

Recently, the research team of Nankai University revealed an important mechanism in the evolution of enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) O157:H7, an important enteropathogenic microorganism. It was found that this pathogenic bacterium evolves to acquire a unique two-component regulatory system (RbfSR) to develop the ability to sense microbiota-produced riboflavin in the large intestine of the host, thereby improving its virulence. At the same time, the findings suggest that other EHEC strains may e
Schematic diagram of the principle of self-oscillating solar artificial muscle engine based on porous filmRecently, Chinese scientists developed a self-oscillating solar artificial muscle actuator based on porous films, and explored its application as an engine, only a bold imagination in the past. It pioneers a new path to efficiently use solar energy. A related paper introducing the research work was published in the world-renowned academic journal Nature Communications.This self-oscillating a
