Local and Genomic Determinants of siRNA-Mediated Heterochromatin Formation and Silencing in Fission Yeast
(2016-03-10)In eukaryotes, 20-30 nt small RNAs (sRNAs) regulate many cellular processes by a process called RNA interference (RNAi). sRNAs serve as adaptable specificity factors to direct silencing at either the post-transcriptional ... -
Local Bonding Effects in the Oxidation of CO on Oxygen-Covered Au(111) from Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Simulations
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010)A fully dynamical approach using ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations is applied to the investigation of CO oxidation on O-covered Au(111). We investigate how the activity of gold depends upon temperature, oxygen ... -
Local circular law for random matrices
(Springer Nature, 2013)The circular law asserts that the spectral measure of eigenvalues of rescaled random matrices without symmetry assumption converges to the uniform measure on the unit disk. We prove a local version of this law at any point ... -
The local circular law II: the edge case
(Springer Nature, 2013)In the first part of this article (Bourgade et al. arXiv:1206.1449, 2012), we proved a local version of the circular law up to the finest scale N−1/2+εN−1/2+ε for non-Hermitian random matrices at any point z∈ℂz∈C with ... -
Local clustering in provenance graphs
(ACM Press, 2013)Systems that capture and store data provenance, the record of how an object has arrived at its current state, accumulate historical metadata over time, forming a large graph. Local clustering in these graphs, in which we ... -
Local Clustering in Provenance Graphs (Extended Version)
(2013)Systems that capture and store data provenance, the record of how an object has arrived at its current state, accumulate historical metadata over time, forming a large graph. Local clustering in these graphs, in which we ... -
Local Compressibility Measurements of Correlated States in Suspended Bilayer Graphene
(American Physical Society, 2010)Bilayer graphene has attracted considerable interest due to the important role played by many-body effects, particularly at low energies. Here we report local compressibility measurements of a suspended graphene bilayer. ... -
Local Connectivity, Kleinian Groups and Geodesics on the Blowup of the Torus
(Springer Verlag, 2001)Let N=?3/Γ be a hyperbolic 3-manifold with free fundamental group π1(N)≅Γ≅<A,B>, such that [A,B] is parabolic. We show that the limit set λ of N is always locally connected. More precisely, let Σ be a compact surface of ... -
Local dynamics in decision making: The evolution of preference within and across decisions
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013)Within decisions, perceived alternatives compete until one is preferred. Across decisions, the playing field on which these alternatives compete evolves to favor certain alternatives. Mouse cursor trajectories provide rich ... -
Local Dynamics in Decision Making: The Evolution of Preference within and across Decisions
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013-06-21)Within decisions, perceived alternatives compete until one is preferred. Across decisions, the playing field on which these alternatives compete evolves to favor certain alternatives. Mouse cursor trajectories provide rich ... -
Local electronic and optical phenomena in two-dimensional materials
(2022-01-10)Two-dimensional (2D) materials, consisting of a single layer of atoms, have proven to be a tremendously valuable platform for studying novel physical phenomena. Besides representing the ultimate thickness limit, these ... -
Local Galois Deformation Rings and A Function Field Breuil--Mezard Conjecture
(2021-05-13)In this dissertation we study the geometry of Galois deformation rings for local function fields in view of the inertial local Langlands correspondence. More precisely, let $K$ be a local function field of characteristic ... -
Local Geometric Langlands Correspondence: The Spherical Case
(Mathematical Society of Japan, 2009)A module over an affine Kac–Moody algebra $\hat{g}$ is called spherical if the action of the Lie subalgebra g[[t]] on it integrates to an algebraic action of the corresponding group G[[t]]. Consider the category of spherical ... -
Local Interaction, Multilevel Selection, and Evolutionary Transitions
(MIT Press, 2006)Group-structured and neighbor-structured populations are compared, especially in relation to multilevel selection theory and evolutionary transitions. I argue that purely neighbor-structured populations, which can feature ... -
Local Landscapes of Pastoral Nomads in Southeastern Turkey
(2012-11-15)The important historical role of pastoral nomads in Mesopotamia stands in stark contrast to the dearth of archaeological data on pastoral nomadic groups of any pre-modern period. Archaeological models neglect not just a ... -
Local people value environmental services provided by forested parks
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2009)Garnering support from local people is critical for maintaining ecologically viable and functional protected areas. However, empirical data illustrating local people’s awareness of the importance of nature’s services is ... -
Local Players in Global Games: The Strategic Constitution of a Multinational Corporation by Peer Hull Kristensen and Jonathan Zeitlin

The local relaxation flow approach to universality of the local statistics for random matrices
(Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2012)We present a generalization of the method of the local relaxation flow to establish the universality of local spectral statistics of a broad class of large random matrices. We show that the local distribution of the ... -
Local Semicircle Law and Complete Delocalization for Wigner Random Matrices
(Springer Nature, 2008)We consider N × N Hermitian random matrices with independent identical distributed entries. The matrix is normalized so that the average spacing between consecutive eigenvalues is of order 1/N. Under suitable assumptions ...
