Regular Lagrangians in Lefschetz fibrations
We characterize regularity of Lagrangian submanifolds in Weinstein Lefschetz fibrations, establishing a conjecture of Giroux and Pardon. Our main result is the Weinstein analogue of a closed symplectic Lefschetz pencil result of Auroux, Muñoz, and Presas. As an application, given a Legendrian link in tight $S^3$ and an exact filling which is part of an arboreal skeleton for the $4$-ball, we build a Lefschetz fibration such that the image of the filling and all of its mutations are arcs in the …

Temperature behavior of optical absorption spectra in HfO2 thin films
Hafnium dioxide, also known as hafnia, is an extremely sought-after material in opto- and nanoelectronics for creating optical coatings and various functional media to have stable performance characteristics under varying thermal operating conditions. In this paper, we have investigated the behavior of the optical properties of hafnia thin films exhibiting an amorphous structure in a wide temperature range of 7-296 K. For the first time we have examined the temperature effects in the energy gap…

Isoperimetric Bounds for Weighted Steklov Eigenvalues with Radial Weights
We study the following class of Steklov eigenvalue problems: \[ \nabla \cdot \bigl( w \nabla u \bigr) = 0 \quad \text{in } Ω, \qquad \frac{\partial u}{\partial ν} = γv u \quad \text{on } \partial Ω, \] where $w$ and $v$ are prescribed positive radial functions, $Ω$ is a Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with $N \geq 2$ and $ν$ denotes its outward unit normal. Extending classical results in the unweighted case due to Weinstock, the first author, and others, we establish isoperimetric ineq…

RIVM update rioolwaarden en percentage positief.
Met een flinke inhaalslag in de data: maar liefst 10 nieuwe dagen sinds vorige week woensdag. Het gaat om 18 t/m 27 juli met 70%-3% van de meetstations.
De stijging van vorige week is in de tussentijd eerst afgenomen, gedurende een aantal dagen omgeslagen in een daling, maar de laatste dagen geven juist weer een stijging aan.
Kortom, het schommelt wat, maar de 17e golf lijkt niet hard te gaan ondanks het dominant geworden zijn v…
