The class of support τ -tilting modules was introduced recently by Adachi et al. These modules complete the class of tilting modules from the point of view of mutations. Given a finite-dimensional algebra A, we study all basic support τ -tilting A-modules which have a given basic τ -rigid A-module as a direct summand. We show that there exist an algebra C such that there exists an order-preserving

Let X be a weighted projective line and coh X the associated category of coherent sheaves. We classify the tilting complexes T in Db(coh X) such that τ2T ≅ T , where τ is the Auslander–Reiten translation in Db(coh X). As an application of this result, we classify the 2-representation-finite algebras which are derived-equivalent to a canonical algebra. This complements Iyama-Oppermann’s classificat

Given a connected non-negative unit form we construct an extended affine Lie algebra by giving a Chevalley basis for it. We also obtain this algebra as a quotient of an algebra defined by means of generalized Serre relations by M. Barot, D. Kussin and H. Lenzing. This is done in an analogous way to the construction of the simply-laced affine Kac–Moody algebras. Thus, we obtain a family of extended

Among the mutation finite cluster algebras the tubular ones are a particularly interesting class. We show that all tubular (simply laced) cluster algebras are of exponential growth by two different methods: first by studying the automorphism group of the corresponding cluster category and second by giving explicit sequences of mutations.

This paper surveys recent contructions in higher Auslander–Reiten theory. We focus on those which, due to their combinatorial properties, can be regarded as higher dimensional analogues of path algebras of linearly oriented type A quivers. These include higher dimensional analogues of Nakayama algebras, of the mesh category of type ZA∞ and the tubes, and of the triangulated category generated by a

Background: Multi-visceral resection often is used in the treatment of retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS). The morbidity after distal pancreatectomy for primary pancreatic cancer is well-documented, but the outcomes after distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS are not. This study aimed to evaluate morbidity and oncologic outcomes after distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS. Methods: In this study, 26 sa

This Applied Optics feature issue on laser applications to chemical, security, and environmental analysis (LACSEA) highlights papers presented at the LACSEA 2020 Seventeenth Topical Meeting sponsored by The Optical Society (OSA).

For low-order adaptive optics systems, a method that is able to correct for system aberrations in the final focal plane is presented. The paper presents a novel figure of merit, corresponding to the integrated non-normalized tip-tilt-free optical transfer function. The inherent singular value decomposition modal content of the interaction matrix is used to optimize this figure of merit. The method

X-ray microscopy offers the opportunity to image biological and radiosensitive materials without special sample preparations, bridging optical and electron microscopy capabilities. However, the performance of such microscopes, when imaging radiosensitive samples, is not limited by their intrinsic resolution, but by the radiation damage induced on such samples. Here, we demonstrate a novel, to the

Gambling Disorder (GD) has recently been reclassified from an impulse-control disorder to a behavioural addiction and, as in other addictive disorders, the dopaminergic reward system is involved. According to neuroimaging studies, alterations within the striatal dopaminergic signalling can occur in GD. However, the findings to date are controversial and there has been no agreement yet on how the r

Background Utilizing surgical services, including caesarean sections, can result in catastrophic expenditure and impoverishment. In 2010, Sierra Leone introduced the Free Health Care Initiative (FHCI), a national financial risk protection program for the most vulnerable groups. Aim of this study was to investigate catastrophic expenditure and impoverishment related to caesarean section in Sierra L

Tetraploidy constitutes a genomically metastable state that drives oncogenesis by leading aneuploidy. Tetraploid sub-population is frequently found in pre-neoplastic lesions. This particular population is relatively more resistant against DNA damaging agents and in consequence, it is important to selectively target tetraploid cancer cells. Here, we listed all the studies that targeted preferential

Rationale: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an ongoing pandemic, in which obesity, hypertension, and diabetes have been linked to poor outcomes. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with these conditions and may influence the prognosis of adults with COVID-19. Objectives: To determine the effect of OSA on clinical outcomes in patients with COVID-19. Methods: The current prospective observa

ABSTRACT: Baz-Valle, E, Fontes-Villalba, M, and Santos-Concejero, J. Total number of sets as a training volume quantification method for muscle hypertrophy: A systematic review. J Strength Cond Res 35(3): 870-878, 2021-This review aimed to determine whether assessing the total number of sets is a valid method to quantify training volume in the context of hypertrophy training. A literature search o

Neuropeptides are implicated in control of lateralized processes in the brain. A unilateral brain injury (UBI) causes the contralesional sensorimotor deficits. To examine whether opioid neuropeptides mediate UBI induced asymmetric processes we compared effects of opioid antagonists on the contralesional and ipsile-sional hindlimb responses to the left-sided and right-sided injury in rats. UBI indu

Universities are a relevant and little-explored context to the study of strategic action, considering their need to adapt to environmental dynamics and establish a closer relationship with society. This study contributes to shedding light on how the changing process from a traditional university model to a more entrepreneurial model takes place. Thus, this study aims to analyze the role played by

The enhanced heat transfer mechanism and parameter optimization of an interrupted microchannel heat sink with rectangular ribs (IMCHS-R) was numerically studied for Reynolds number ranging from 100 to 900, using ANSYS Fluent. Interrupted microchannel heat sinks with different kinds of rectangular ribs having different width, length, and locations were compared with a straight microchannel and micr

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the frequent malignant tumors and has a high mortality-to-incidence ratio. Apolipoprotein M (ApoM), a lipoprotein superfamily member, is primarily bound to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Our previous studies opined that ApoM crucially modulates CRC progression, but its role in CRC has not been elucidated. Here, lentivirus infection technology was used t
