Article Abstract

Self-sustained order can emerge in complex systems due to internal feedback between coupled subsystems. Here, we present our discovery of a nonmonotonic emergence of order amidst chaos in a turbulent thermoacoustic fluid system. Fluctuations play a vital role in determining the dynamical state and transitions in a system. In this work, we use complex networks to encode jumps in amplitude scales owing to fluctuations as links between nodes representing amplitude bins. The number of possible amplitude transitions at a fixed timescale reflects the complexity of dynamics at that timescale. The network entropy quantifies the number of and uncertainty associated with such transitions. Using network entropy, we show that the uncertainty in fluctuations first increases and then decreases as the system transitions from chaos via intermittency to order. The competition between turbulence and nonlinear interactions leads to such nonmonotonic emergence of order amidst chaos in turbulent thermoacoustic fluid systems.

Cell states evolve through the combined activity of signaling pathways and gene networks. While transcription factors can direct cell fate, these factors rely on a receptive cell state. How signaling levels contribute to the emergence of receptive cell states remains poorly defined.

Spin-momentum-locked edge states of quantum spin Hall insulators provide a compelling platform for spintronic applications, owing to their intrinsic protection against backscattering from non-magnetic disorder. This protection emerges from time-reversal symmetry, which pairs Kramers partners of helical edge modes with opposite spin and momentum, thereby strictly forbidding elastic single-particle backscattering within the pair. Yet, contrary to the idealized notion of linear edge bands, the non-monotonic dispersions of realistic materials can host multiple Kramers pairs, reintroducing backscattering channels between them without violating time-reversal symmetry.

The kagome metal CsV_{3}Sb_{5} exhibits an unusual charge-density-wave (CDW) order, where the emergence of loop current order that breaks time-reversal symmetry (TRS) has been proposed. A key feature of this CDW phase is a nonmonotonic Hall effect at low fields, often attributed to TRS breaking. However, its origin remains unclear.

The ability to tune material function through primary sequence is a defining feature of biological macromolecules, enabling precise control over structure and target interactions in complex aqueous environments. However, translating sequence-structure-function relationships to synthetic macromolecules is challenging due to their dispersity in sequence, conformation, and composition. Here, we report systematic studies of amphiphilic polymer chelators designed to probe how composition and patterning influence binding affinity and selectivity for rare earth elements (REEs), a series of technologically relevant metals with challenging separation profiles.

Gaze is one of the primary experimental measures for studying cognitive development, especially in preverbal infants. However, the field is only beginning to develop a principled explanatory framework for making sense of the various factors affecting gaze. We approach this issue by addressing infant gaze from first principles, using rational information gathering.
